I've done a lot of learning in the past year. I've made a lot of changes in my life. I've filtered out quite a few habits and as a result, I've come to know that I want to progress more and evolve in the way I communicate. Devotion is a song that represents the beginning of something new for me, it represents one step towards becoming more of myself. I hope that regardless of your opinion towards it, you can begin to understand me more as I grow and continue to learn on my journey.
Almost 4 years later and I STILL think this is Tristam’s best. The vocals, production, everything lines up to create a beautifully haunting piece of work. I know the song and dance is to praise Frame of Mind or Once Again, but this? This shows what Tristam is perfectly capable of. Still hoping he can make more along the lines of this, it’s incredible.
Perfectly stated. only those who have gone down the path of sonic exploration can appreciate the quality of this track as his best. its a whole league above all his other work
I don’t care how long ago this was released. I will always come back and praise the hell out of this song. It is EASILY one of Tristam’s bests! And the reasoning behind it of Tristam learning, and wanting to evolve and grow will always be an inspiring one, at least to me
DangerDobbs That's yours, most people were disappointed with Karma Field's new song. This one here is the only one I've enjoyed, I didn't like the one by Hellberg alot.
I was in my first year of high school. I already graduated and would you look at that 2020 is coming in a few hours and this song still stays as superior.
I dont know why but Tristam's songs making me feel that humanity is still can survive, that not everything is worth , that we all can still change the world and make it a better place
+jweihaas Definitely do a cover of this. The beat would sound so good with your piano/keyboard. I don't think you should get a vocalist to join you though, I personally think it doesn't fit, just my opinion though.
artemetra I'm not a bass player but the bassline is the part of the song that drew me in. no matter who, you gotta appreciate the creativity of everything haha
All the fanboys be like _"were is the drop? this song sucks!"_ But, really, this is what we really needed! Complete change! It's like a totally new Tristam!
the song came out 8 years ago??? well damn, it's hard to believe that such masterpiece is 8 years old now. i remember how i heared this song for the second time (bc for the first time my attention said: "nah im out") and i started to love this song so much, that i developed a big interest for tristam and became his fan. that was when i was 12 years old. and now im 20 years old... and i still love this song and i'm still a tristam fan... times really flies fast, huh. anyway, i still think this is one of the best song he ever released on the label, like, even after all these years, i still love this song very much.
[Verse 1] Silent in the dark Waiting for the spark The wood soaked in their blood Their hands joined in the mud The ember gently glowed The spark took to their clothes The flames kept on rising higher [Chorus] They stood in the fire They burn with desire With love and emotion They dance with devotion They stood in the fire They burn with desire With love and emotion They dance with devotion They stood in the fi- Stood in the fi- (Love and-) (Love and-) (Love and-) (Love and-) [Verse 2] Tighter than before They still want something more The heat dries out the skin As their patience grows thinner Thinner than before Cause they want even more Cause they share in this fire [Chorus] They stood in the fire They burn with desire With love and emotion They dance with devotion They stood in the fire They burn with desire With love and emotion They dance with devotion They stood in the fire They burn with desire With love and emotion They dance with devotion [Outro] They stood in the fire They burn with desire With love and emotion They dance with devotion They stood in the fi- Stood in the fi- (Love and-)
This is just amazing. Tristam can seriously do anything and make it good. He has made so many different kinds of music, and has mastered all of them. Some people complain about how Tristam has so many "fanboys" which is true, he's popular, but that's because he's a damn good artist. Great work.
Tristam... You have finally made a song that I love other than Truth and I Remember. You have outgrown your diaper that was Flight and its various renditions you've made. You have made me proud with this absolutely phenomenal song that I not only love, but adore. From your comment down below, I can only hope for more and more real songs that have meaning, not just fancy vocals with shit lyrics and boring instrumentals. Tristam, you might be on your way into my heart.
A lot different than Tristam's usual style of melodic (X). This is more futuryyyy which is honestly really cool. I'm really liking how Tristam's beginning to become more experimental, soon it will lead to something wonderful :)
DangerDobbs You can see this comment?!?!?!?! Fucking A! Monstercat has unbanned me. This is absolutely sensational, Fij vibes indeed. Damn we need more of this Tristam!
DangerDobbs Yeah from like Vagabond onwards I couldn't comment here, it just came up with errors. I really wanted to express my insane love for Greatness but couldn't. I may have displeased the cat with what I've been saying about the tracks on 026. Lol
I stopped watching Monstercat for a couple years due to me finding the content to become stale. I came back to watch this video because Tristam was an old favorite. Boy am I glad I clicked this video(: Definitely going in my smoking playlist.
I love how the lyrics is about fire where as in the clip it looks like water(droplets) and cells... Anyway, this is one of my most favorite Tristam songs
Personally I think this is Tristam's best. It's kinda a song about himself if you think about it. Saying that no matter what happens you have to push through if you are devoted to something. It sends a good message and overall is a great song. LOVE IT
As much as I keep hoping for Tristam to make songs like he used to, Im glad that hes doing what he wants to do. Im glad hes trying something new. This isnt what I expected but it is absolutely beautiful. Keep doing what youre doing Tristam
Now this! This is what I love! Releases with tell a story.This was once supposed to be part of the great Tristam LP. My favourite song from Tristam by far!
+L1CHable Yeah! Especially with the parts of the video that resemble a microscope. Rather interesting to see these things which make us reminisce of the past but also reflect a part of ourselves into who we are.
Oh my fucking god tristam this is incredible. So much depth and effort put into this one fucking absolute banger of a track, you're really something as an artist and I hope you keep this up. Totally sensational. Also knowing this won't get seen without a pun, I've put alot of *devotion* to making this comment about one of my favourite artists :)
Tristam, I will always be a happy fan of yours. That is why I am happy as long as you are happy with what you want to do, and not just because others want you to do something. It takes real time and dedication to make music, and you are surely one of the best producers out there. Good job, and I hope you are well.
a lot of people dislike this song aparently, dont know why. personally i really love this kind of music, keep up your amazing work, Tristam, i love your music, and your style. i feel like you should make your music the way you want to, and not the way other people want you to. sincerely, -a big fan from Norway
At first, I wasn't too keen on this song. I was more into heavy dubstep at the time. But now that my taste in music has changed, I love this song dearly. Some people might think that this song is bland and they might be right, but this is a simple song that knows it's a simple song. That's what I love about it. Tristam did a brilliant job here and his music only gets better. Can't wait to see what he's got for his next song. Congrats, Tristam. Keep it up. 💙
There's nothing simple about this song in the literal sense. However, hypothetically it is a simple song as "Simplicity is stated to truly the ultimate form of sophistication
For those mobile viewers that cannot see annotations, the next release goes to Tut Tut Child's Queen Of Your Heart (ft. Augustus Ghost) as the official release of the album Come To The End; Then Stop LP
wow honestly, i liked tristams style from last year a lot, i didnt think it could be topped but this is just amazing! the lyrics and style of it go really well together keep up the good work tristam this is amazing

Have you heard the new song?
bone dry best
I don’t care how long ago this was released. I will always come back and praise the hell out of this song. It is EASILY one of Tristam’s bests! And the reasoning behind it of Tristam learning, and wanting to evolve and grow will always be an inspiring one, at least to me
I definitely agree, this song got me through high-school, and what little college I was able to do before covid lol
Three music videos in a row? This is why we show our Devotion for Monstercat.
3
Three
Yep just realised, edited accordingly xD
+DangerDobbs I wasn't really hyped about Karma Fields, I expected something more.
DangerDobbs That's yours, most people were disappointed with Karma Field's new song. This one here is the only one I've enjoyed, I didn't like the one by Hellberg alot.
this is not what i would expect from tristam..
THIS IS MUCH BETTTER!
No.
+Dill Mill Listen to that song at least 3 times, then you just fall in love with the ambience.

I like the song, but no.

It has been so long since I last heard this, when I was finished with middle school... and now I'm a senior, time flies too fast
Same, shit hits u right in the feels
Exact same for me as well!
Its been 3 years, and its still my favourite song of all time. No song comes close to topping this one off for me.
I was in my first year of high school. I already graduated and would you look at that 2020 is coming in a few hours and this song still stays as superior.
@@yajiaramorales9411 this aint aged well
Damn it's been 8 years since this masterpiece
I dont know why
but Tristam's songs making me feel that humanity is still can survive, that not everything is worth , that we all can still change the world and make it a better place
not everything is lost**
That's beautiful bro.
I know that feeling man
6 years later, same feeling.
omg 2022 seems to me like the end of the world, but did you feel the same back then, in 2016?
The legend is back and kicking!
This is sick!! ;D
+jweihaas hmm future cover? :3
+jweihaas Definitely do a cover of this. The beat would sound so good with your piano/keyboard. I don't think you should get a vocalist to join you though, I personally think it doesn't fit, just my opinion though.
no song will ever even slightly compare to this song. this is legendary!
ProjectNiteFall I don't criticize your opinion, but have you heard Deadmau5 - Strobe?
deadmau5's strobe covered by sparkee is better imo cause of the sick baseline and piano/guitar solos
Rubeus. M i prefer original more actually
artemetra I'm not a bass player but the bassline is the part of the song that drew me in. no matter who, you gotta appreciate the creativity of everything haha
Doesn't anyone else think this sounds like something that would be playing during the end credits of a movie?
Joshua Houlding maybe in the start of James bond
Yeah. Also Interstellar by Laszlo sounds like it would be in a commercial for a disney movie imo
Ya actually it does
OMG IT DOESS
Or in an ad or intro but yes
All the fanboys be like _"were is the drop? this song sucks!"_
But, really, this is what we really needed! Complete change!
It's like a totally new Tristam!
this has drops i guess
but the drop is there,
their argument would be invalid anyway
where*
@@brendanrussell4365 there
I actually like this as a studying song
this aged really well. i wish he continued down this path and made more music in the style of this one
This is a masterpiece
the song came out 8 years ago??? well damn, it's hard to believe that such masterpiece is 8 years old now.
i remember how i heared this song for the second time (bc for the first time my attention said: "nah im out") and i started to love this song so much, that i developed a big interest for tristam and became his fan. that was when i was 12 years old.
and now im 20 years old... and i still love this song and i'm still a tristam fan... times really flies fast, huh.
anyway, i still think this is one of the best song he ever released on the label, like, even after all these years, i still love this song very much.
i come back to this every now and then because it's just a masterpiece
yepppp
literally Tristam's best song ever nothing else he's made can top this
how high must I be to understand this video ?
yes

Not high at all, just depressed.😊

[Verse 1]
Silent in the dark
Waiting for the spark
The wood soaked in their blood
Their hands joined in the mud
The ember gently glowed
The spark took to their clothes
The flames kept on rising higher
[Chorus]
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fi-
Stood in the fi-
(Love and-)
(Love and-)
(Love and-)
(Love and-)
[Verse 2]
Tighter than before
They still want something more
The heat dries out the skin
As their patience grows thinner
Thinner than before
Cause they want even more
Cause they share in this fire
[Chorus]
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
[Outro]
They stood in the fire
They burn with desire
With love and emotion
They dance with devotion
They stood in the fi-
Stood in the fi-
(Love and-)
🖤
ARE YOU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW!! I've been waiting so long for a Tristam song in which he experiments with style again. This is a dream come true.
Damn my childhood song, i feel old...
I must have listened to this song atleast 200 times by now
Lies
Impossible
+VortexOfAbsol Yeah, he's *DEFINITELY* not using hyperbole.
Gabriel Shaw xD Don't worry I know.
200x5.2=1040/60=17.33 hours which is not possible as the song just came out today
Lies
Best Tristam track. Just admit it. My favorite Tristam tracks now go Devotion, then The Guardian, then Reactions.
+Skylord Guillaume yep
Not at all.
JIR0_ | I have music playlists It's a big step up from the shit he's been making recently
Definitely not
Agreed
Someone send an ambulance, this song hit me right in the feels :'(
Tristam goes beyond himself and really made this one better then ever.
This is just amazing. Tristam can seriously do anything and make it good. He has made so many different kinds of music, and has mastered all of them. Some people complain about how Tristam has so many "fanboys" which is true, he's popular, but that's because he's a damn good artist. Great work.
still perfection🔥
Who else finds this song really calming?
No running people in a Tristam video?
Well thats new...
😂😂
+박현재 i guess they *ran* out of people that wanted to do it
+Maxwell Chen no pun intended
Lol
In my add there was someone running, close enough
Honestly don't know how people don't like this song.
Let's just all agree that Tristam has outdone himself this time...
Amazing work!
Now, let's not start any arguments!
Tristam... You have finally made a song that I love other than Truth and I Remember. You have outgrown your diaper that was Flight and its various renditions you've made. You have made me proud with this absolutely phenomenal song that I not only love, but adore.

The best thing Tristam has ever made, even better than my personal favourite Kings. This is actually a phenomenal track. Damn.
DangerDobbs You can see this comment?!?!?!?! Fucking A! Monstercat has unbanned me.
This is absolutely sensational, Fij vibes indeed. Damn we need more of this Tristam!
DangerDobbs Yeah from like Vagabond onwards I couldn't comment here, it just came up with errors. I really wanted to express my insane love for Greatness but couldn't. I may have displeased the cat with what I've been saying about the tracks on 026. Lol
Holy shiet james cheels likes a tristam song
DangerDobbs It's a phenomenal track, visualizer on point. Nothing to complain about.
DangerDobbs It is a real shame. And those same fans make the whole fanbase look cringy and pathetic.
Out of Devotion to Tristam, I made forty mixtapes of this song, put them in my shoes, and stood in the fire.
Best Tristan song ever, hands down.
I would argue with Frame of Mind, but it's definetly up there.
This is really good - I wasn't the biggest fan of Tristam's music but this is really well done. Loving the abstract music video too.
this song is so inspiring it me. the lyrics, the rhythm the melody just everything is so unique!!
I understand people change but not gonna lie I kind of miss Tristam’s old style
I stopped watching Monstercat for a couple years due to me finding the content to become stale. I came back to watch this video because Tristam was an old favorite. Boy am I glad I clicked this video(: Definitely going in my smoking playlist.
I love how the lyrics is about fire where as in the clip it looks like water(droplets) and cells... Anyway, this is one of my most favorite Tristam songs
I'm a simple man, I see Tristam I press like
This song still holds to be my favorites. I remembered when I first listen to it when it came out. I was amazed and still am.
bow down to the saviour of all music. this piece once again show the beauty that can be expressed in song
+SuperStarkey Yeah, "We will build this once again" ♪ ♫
Personally I think this is Tristam's best. It's kinda a song about himself if you think about it. Saying that no matter what happens you have to push through if you are devoted to something. It sends a good message and overall is a great song. LOVE IT
As much as I keep hoping for Tristam to make songs like he used to, Im glad that hes doing what he wants to do. Im glad hes trying something new. This isnt what I expected but it is absolutely beautiful. Keep doing what youre doing Tristam
A year later and this song is still amazing
Liked before it even started
Same
Same well i favourited it
+BaYa_xCouGaRz YT I favorited before it release, BOOM!
+Canada Eh? nope
Si eu la fel :)
Just amazing! Really like this style :D
Hands down, best Tristam song ever
Keep making music, Tristam. You were born for it.
A bit different from what he usually does, but just as great! I'd love to hear more of this new style
So we can agree Tristam's mixtape is indeed fire.
The best thing to come out of Monstercat
Indeed, a complete work of art
i agree 100% it’s an underrated masterpiece
Now this! This is what I love! Releases with tell a story.This was once supposed to be part of the great Tristam LP. My favourite song from Tristam by far!
When it's by Tristam, you know it's gotta be good.
This music video reminds me of Hawkling Street's clip!
Agreed
This video reminds me of science class
I just replied the same thing, without knowing that you posted this already... ;-;
+L1CHable Yeah! Especially with the parts of the video that resemble a microscope. Rather interesting to see these things which make us reminisce of the past but also reflect a part of ourselves into who we are.
+Inv3rt3d Yeah true!
tristammmmmm
OMG! 3 of my favorite artists back to back (Hellberg, Tristam, and Tut Tut Child tommorow! :D)
This is probably a big statement, but I think this is Tristam's best song yet. Seriously awesome
Once you've seen Tristam's face you can never go back.
Oh my fucking god tristam this is incredible. So much depth and effort put into this one fucking absolute banger of a track, you're really something as an artist and I hope you keep this up. Totally sensational.
Also knowing this won't get seen without a pun, I've put alot of *devotion* to making this comment about one of my favourite artists :)
+Wooden Table Love this track.
The only thing that I can say, thanks for the song
Happy 5th Birthday Devotion
Tristam, I will always be a happy fan of yours. That is why I am happy as long as you are happy with what you want to do, and not just because others want you to do something. It takes real time and dedication to make music, and you are surely one of the best producers out there. Good job, and I hope you are well.
If this is what tristam's heart wants go for it . The new style is amazing and much more than expected
This looks like the intro for some weird supernatural crime thriller.
The second drop was fire 🔥
Ya pasaron 5 años y sigue gustandome esta canción, tristam capo ❤
Tienes una increible lista de reproduccion, saludos jaja
This was so unexpected. That's what I love about Tristam though. Never ceases to impress.
Sad that this has less views than his other work like Vine, Bone Dry etc. This is classic gold
This is my favourite song ever.
Lol, this sounds nothing like Tristam, but gosh, I LOVE IT!
It's almost 10 minutes in and no Mr Muffin.

a lot of people dislike this song aparently, dont know why.
personally i really love this kind of music, keep up your amazing work, Tristam, i love your music, and your style.
i feel like you should make your music the way you want to, and not the way other people want you to.

wow honestly, i liked tristams style from last year a lot, i didnt think it could be topped but this is just amazing! the lyrics and style of it go really well together keep up the good work tristam this is amazing
Bring this wonderful musician and his music back!
he was never gone actually
Squishy muffins 😍
This song should've had the bang moment in its core... with such lyrics and vibes to make it legendary -.-
No it shouldnt
looks like someone really had a fun time playing with a microscope :^)
Happy birthday for yesterday, Tristam x
too bad i let such a perfect song become attached to a person i'd rather forget
what happened?
?
I know the feeling man
