When I heard how he was singing this I instantly knew "fuck this is a harmony, they're gonna do a duet I can't handle this"
I felt like crying because he still knew perfectly how Eurydice sounded. It had been so long since he’d seen or heard her.....
Right!? As soon as I heard this I forgot about the idea of escaping Hades, just set my number one priority to reuniting these two
Yes, I can't say I got that reunion spoiled because I instantly recognized the harmony. So good.
Ok but Orpheus singing this while hades is scribbling things, with Dusa humming to herself and Hypnos being fast asleep is such a nice and comfy ambiance I’m rooting for :3
I love how you imply hades is not actually doing shit with his parchment work and is following in hypnos’ footsteps and doodling in his lists
@@thebaseandtriflingcreature174 LMAO
this is the man who taught his very young son how to curse i wouldn’t doubt it
Ya seen the true ending yet?
@@thebaseandtriflingcreature174 it's Canon to me now

The first time I heard Orpheus sing this song was when I respawned after beating the final boss and seeing the surface for the first time. I thought my heartstrings couldn't be played anymore than that, turns out I was a lyre.
This pun hunted me down and murdered me in my sleep.
@Baxi Tabaxi in my way, i got slayn by hades once again xD i came back and he sang for me. I stood there 10 Minutes, but Hades talked the whole time to the ghost, so im glad for this version. BTW next try, with the power of Orpheus, i beat Hades
Orpheus sung this song for the first time after I saw the end credits scene - an incredible addition to the change of mood of Hades' court after that moment. Definitely made me tear up.
@Baxi Tabaxi no I got this song after beating hades for the 9th time lmao
I see what you did there 😏
this guys voice really made me believe this was the character that overpowered the sirens.
In the actual legends, after Orpheus lost his wife, he sang in such melancholy that it drove everything to tears to the point in which even inanimate objects would weep, the gods got so tired of his songs but couldn't do anything about it cause his song drove even the happiest among them to tears.
When he failed his contract with hades to lead his wife out of the underworld without looking at her, he attempted to commit suicide in order to be with her again but every time he tried to kill himself the methods he took would always lead him to fail, poison would leap from his mouth to avoid being consumed, the rocks he would smash his head upon became soft piles of sand or mud, when he tried to drown himself the water would always push him to shore, knives to his heart would crumble to rust before ever reaching his skin, when he jumped off of cliffs the wind would safely carry him to the ground, the fires he plunged himself in would instantly reduce to cold ashes, the world did not want him to die.
He finally died when nymph followers of Dionysus attacked him in a drunk/blind rage because they became increasingly angry that all he would ever sing about was melancholy an anger that overpowered their sorrow. They literally ripped him to shreds and when they were done they realized they had killed perhaps the greatest musician that ever lived and attempted to remove the evidence by throwing his remains in a river along with his lyre.
@@themushroominside6540 Goddamn. Thanks for sharing all the info.
@@themushroominside6540 this is the saddest thing I've read in months, poor orpheus you had me crying while listening the song
Darren Korb is the vocalist for Orpheus, I don't know how he manages to make such beautiful and moving music with every instrument including his own voice
@@themushroominside6540 That really is an excellent story
While Eurydice’s version sounds like a sigh of relief, Orpheus’ sounds like a gasp of sorrow and melancholy
That’s fucking poetic
Agreed mate, agreed@@KaawSauce
Paying for this mans release has been my life’s greatest investment
Indeed. Worth all the diamonds in the world.
@@DodacLA all the diamonds in the underworld you mean
I was like "yea fuck you too" when he made me choose a song but refused to sing :D
In the end... I do not regred
@@GodtierWaifu still good, makes going to the character room in asphodel that much more special, not like i was ever going to pass up a character room
Your comment sounds really interesting out of context
When I re-spawned and heard Orpheus singing this, I teared up.
Me too
Me3
can confirm, do not consider myself as a highly sensitive person, but still shed a tear
I completely ignored Orpheus until I heard him sing, now he gets all the nectar
same. It was so sad. ;~;
Tfw you walk out of the Pool of Styx and hear singing for the first time.
ikr the level of profound depth of sadness in his voice drove me into a mission to unbind his contract to unite the 2 was the happiest moment I've done when i re-united them at asphodel with the duet
Normally when you come out of the Styx, you're internally psyching yourself up to get ready for the next run. But when you return to the House and hear Orpheus singing this, it feels like you want to take your time before jumping back in.
The first time he sang was actually the first time i finished a run. Shit hit DIFFERENT
The first time that happened it was after my first escape run. Total coincidence but damn if it didn’t leave me profoundly impacted.
I was like, "Orpheus is singing? :00"
I loved Eurydice's version, but hearing Orpheus sing it was like hearing it for the very first time again.
She’s the muse but he is the peerless master musician
my personal rule is that if Orpheus is singing this, I'm contractually obligated to sing Eurydice's part with him for at least one cycle
Dude, I only now realised, that it is Darren Korb himself who sings. This voice is majestic.
@@Dragonessa007 Wiki says he also is the voice of skelly! Holy shit this dude has some range
Holy shit I would have never expected the 3 of them to have the same voice actor
@@kerokero9458 Orpheus isn't actually voiced by Darren when speaking, only when singing. Still, that's some impressive range!
@@Tralldan I suspected that, but it's still disappointing that Orpheus isn't voiced by his regular va while singing
@@redrocketrider probably would've been a challenge to sing this thing, honestly; maybe they could have been perfect for the spoken lines but having someone with more experience singing was their preferred option?
Orpheus's pain as he sings it is so well heard. This company does voice acting 10x better than anyone else.
This is a really interesting song because while the lyrics don’t change between Eurydice and Orpheus’ versions, the tone and the meaning is completely different depending on the perspective. Eurydice’s version is about her learning to move on from Orpheus and how to do her own thing, while Orpheus’ version is about how he can’t let go of Eurydice and how he still dearly regrets leaving her behind in the underworld after violating his contract.
and that fact made it sound awesome when combined
I find Bastion has two different tones for the game mother I am here depending on what happens to zulf. I also love in transistor the song we all become has a second meaning after you finish it
But the mythology says the reunite in the afterlife doesn't it?
@@0xc0ffee_ Yes, it's such a bitter modern twist on the story. Reflects the toxic sensibilities of our time.
@@___Hermitage Play a little bit more ;)
Jesus this man has the voice to break the will of the mightiest of men
If I heard someone singing about a love one with this emotion, I would struggling keeping myself from crying when hearing this song.
Well he’s supposed to be the best singer to ever exist.
Orpheus: The Man Who Made The Earth, Land And Sea, Above And Below, Cry And Weep.
one thing that i love about this song from both perspectives, is that from Euryidice's view, the song is just about living in the afterlife without a care, but to Orpheus, its like shes saying goodbye to him forever, which is why he sounds so sad singing it
shit thanks for making me realize it ... thats very cool
What’s your basis for saying Eurydice didn’t base this song on her relationship with Orpheus?
@@joeymagdelone3705 She said it herself. First time you point out the song you mention it's beautiful but kind of sad that you feel that way about orpheus, she kinda scoffs and gives a "not everything I write is about him." I believe it's just suppose to be about her accepting her lot and moving on and learning to enjoy her eternal life now in the underworld. It's about him only in the sense that he's embodying the opposite when you first meet him, refusing to move on and still clinging to what he had in life (which I think is why his is sadder, it's a more somber realization for him rather than a freeing one for her)
Could be wrong though.
I didn't like my boons, so I killed myself in the lava in front of Eurydice (while she was singing).
When I came back, he was singing instead.
Whoa.. i need to test to see if when she sings this, if somehow Orpheus also sings it at (generally) the same.
@@Kajichuu I think it's RNG, but good luck
Can we just all give credit that the dude singing this voiced Zagreus and wrote ALL OF THE GAMES OST!
Darren Korb is a very talented man.
"don't forget your pal, Boyo!"
When I respawned and heard this haunting song, I knew for certain that this wasn’t your typical roguelike.
When the Codex read that no one could sing a sweeter, sadder song than Orpheus I didn't believe it until now.
I never thought I’d be so attached to a game and a song. When I first unlocked Orpheus, i thought he was... ok not one of my more favorite characters. But after getting this and coming back to him singing, I audibly went, “YES HE SINGS AGAIN!”
This game is a masterpiece
Side note: Darren Korb is the voice of Zagreus and Skelly, and the singing voice of Orpheus. He's also the lead composer of the game :D
you mean... THIS IS ZAGREUS???? OMG
I thought the same thing, when i first met him i was thinking “what is this sad clown doing moping about” after he sang i got it
Whoa… and Eurydice tells Zagreus to try singing after he masters the lute! Daaaaaang
Darren Korb is a treasure, he's a funny guy in interviews, too.
How, just HOW can a real-life man sing like he actually IS Orpheus of tragic legend, who sang so sorrowfully women were brought to miscarry and bring about plague, and does it SO FUCKING WELL???!? HOW IS THIS MAN REAL
Power of music my friend:)
❤️🖤💛
Is that really the power of Orpheus’s music? So sad that it caused miscarriages and plague?
@@rickyrojas2500 more than that too in the legends.
I'm still playing Hades. The firs time I heard Orpheus sing this I got really emotional. As a musician and a writer I know how hard it is to pull emotion from the audience. This song friggin nails it. Of course the game does something I never thought could happen. We're given a game with only four levels that keeps us coming back to play it again...and again...and again. Maybe this game is a representation of mortal incarnation itself.
this game is quite deep in fact
... the significance of him finding his voice again... Just... 😢
I remember when I got this game. I opened up the mini art book and saw Orpheus and was so shocked as the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice was my absolute favorite Greek tale. When I got the option to unlock him. I grinded a lot. And then when I encountered Eurydice. I kept going back and forth between the two because I saw the opportunity to bring them back. And the moment I died because I thought to increase the heat really high. I came back and heard Orpheus singing this and I started crying. As I already liked Eurydice's version. But hearing Orpheus sing and have the song have a new meaning with Orpheus. It broke me
thanks to the devs for playing the version with the main vocal line like 15x in the game before finallly giving us this great backing track to sing along to
- love, a compulsive harmonizer
Haha yes! Eurydice's melody was like immediately there for me as well 🙊 Have never had such a beautiful experience in a game 😍
SPOILER FOR THE LATE GAME
I dunno if it's meant to be like this, but I had Orpheus sing this just after Zagreus told his mom that he needed her in his life, and that this family needed to stop to run away.
Seeing orpheus sings his sorrow for his lost love, I knew that I had to get back up and bring Persephone with Zagreus, so Zagreus will not have to endure the same sadness as Orpheus.
It was a powerfull moment.
didn't read your comment but liked for actually marking spoilers clearly, THANK YOU.
I have a similar experience, except he sang after Persephone told Zagreus to not return, and having a butter moment punctuated by this song really got to me.
I actually got it at a totally different time, so I don't think it's scripted to be like that
Poor Orpheus
He goofed up, but only because he loved his wife...
If he loved his wife like he proclaim he did, he won't need to look back.
But he did
@@tingpekang1087 Yeah becausse he missed her
Your argument doesn't make sense. You have to realise that feelings can make you do things that are not logical at all especialy love - the strongest feeling of all.
Because if he didn't look back because he loved her then why did he looked back, hm?
What other feeling made him look back at her?
@@lorax1274 Because he asked the oldest of the three brothers? Because that God sow fear and what was that word again?
Doubt yes.
Doubtful that the God of The Underworld let him have a chance to take his wife's dead soul back to the living world.
Fear that it was the god's way of entertainment.
Greek Gods are rather fucky
@@tingpekang1087 This doesn't contradict anything I said tho
Does doubt somehows prove that he didn't love his wife? He went through this whole hassle to get there for her still
@@lorax1274 and in the end, he failed.

First time I heard the Eurydice version I thought she sang it perfectly, but the Orpheus version is just hauntingly beautiful.
At the same time I was doing the Orpheus and Eurydice route, I was doing the Patroclus and Achilles route, and the first time Orpheus sung this, I had just gotten done talking to Achilles about how he wanted Zagreus to send all his love to Patroclus, and I got SO SAD.
Trudging out of the Styx and hearing Orpheus's singing gives a sense of sorrow, and yet also comfort , as well.
I love Orpheus, he has that Goblin King hairstyle going on
Orpheus' version and Eurydice's are starkly different because of the vocal arrangement. They both share the same accompaniment, but follow very different vocal keys and highlighted chords. Orpheus' follows the low tones that barely change in elevation aside from the few high notes that are often laced with an open, anguished rise. These all perfectly complement his sad rendition, and turn the lyrics into a tragical downward spiral.
Lovely! I'm a music noob and have a question: If I want to sing it like Orpheus is, but I only have a tableture and/or list of chords based on Eurydice's part, is that going to cause problems? I'm not sure what a "highlighted chord" is --but should I switch some of the chords up?
@@glocrowhurst You're fine as is. I've seen this idea about different "vocal keys" echoed elsewhere and that's an overcomplication of how this was, in all likelihood, written. The melody was simply written at first with two voices harmonizing, and they were then split afterwards into two individual versions. The chords are identical between both.
@@McPigeon753 Yeah op writes more like a music journalist as opposed to a musician, it’s the same song with same key, same chords and same lyrics but Eurydice’s vocal lifted out and Orpheus’ vocal put in.
Yeah! They're singing in relative keys. Relative keys are related to each by sharing an accidental (same sharp(s)/flat(s)) in major and minor. Eurydice's melody is in F major and Orpheus's melody is in D minor. It also reflects how Eurydice has accepted death and found comfort and Orpheus laments his death and failing to bring back Eurydice from the underworld.
@@celestialVocalist It's not that complicated. They both sing in the same key, C minor. Neither of them are in major, and the accompaniment is the exact same for both individually and together. Orpheus just sings the lower harmony, most of the time a minor third lower. Both their individual melodies are pretty much exclusively within the notes of the natural C minor, except Orpheus has the occasional B natural instead of B flat (7th note of the scale) which is standard for minor songs because they regularly utilize the harmonic minor in chords.
So both solo versions are just their harmonies sung separately, which is appropriate considering their story in the game. They compliment each other and Oprheus looks up to Eurydice, holding her in higher ragard than himself, as it were. Eurydice as the one who made the songs figuratively and literally gets the credit she deserves since the top main melody is sung by her and Orpheus supports her with harmonies
WHY isn’t this on the official soundtrack?
There’s Eurydice’s solo, and there’s the duet, but Orpheus’ solo is absent. Baffling.
Maybe he wanted to give credit where it’s due?
Or hypnos forgot to put it on the list
@@thebaseandtriflingcreature174
HYPNOS IT’S YOUR ASS THIS TIME!
My mom died a few days ago, and I developed a profound appreciation of this song. All of the lyrics fit her passing so well. I decided to sing it on the final day of her wake, the day before she was cremated. I'm by no means a good singer, but I somehow pushed through and managed to sing it well. I did break a little in the last part of the song.
This song is an important part of my life now. It's brought me so much comfort in her passing. I hope it does for those who are suffering as well.
What an otherwordly vocal performance. Stop the world moment the first time this comes up in-game.
I cried when I heard Orpheus sing for the first time
His singing is so sad, I believe the gods struggling amongst themselves to restraining from crying when hearing him play his song.
When I am sad I listen to Orpheus sing. I only played Hades recently and when I heard him sing my heart just twisted and it still does
I only just discovered this game about a week ago. It's incredible.
I don't think I will ever not be stunned by Supergiant's music
I absolutely love Orpheus, I was so amused at Dionysus being like “Zag, Zag, get this, we trick Orpheus that you and are like, connected! It’ll be so funny!”
It’s a nod to Zagreus being referred to as Orphic Dionysus, before Dionysus was made into the Hellenistic version that he is and remains to this very day
I respect this game sooo much for not just picking and choosing info... especially since there's SO MANY little details and stories that are conflicting when it comes to the greek gods and legends.
I can genuinely get cherry-picking too, but they were like nah, we can make it work.
I wouldn't have made Orpheus look like this
And I would have been wrong
I wouldn't have made Orpheus sound like this
And I would be wrong
Basically Darren is a genuine genius
This might be a reference to Sandman ( i have zero sources, i only noticed the physical ressemblance). Orpheus is a minor character, but the pale skin and his hairs made me think about it first (achilles and other humans have a more "alive" skin tone. The hairs are more those of sandman -who looks like neil gaman-
@@shadox999 I for one thought he looked like Robert Smith a bit, but maybe it's just me
@@Nihanter oh no definitely not you. As soon as I saw him I pointed that out to my husband.
@@Nihanter same here
I want this played on my funeral
I just stumbled on the duet and I just realized it's a game. Thank you for introducing this to me.
I just realized when Eurydice says
“Good riddance
To all the thieves
To all the fools that stifled me”
She’s referring to Orpheus. That why when Orpheus sings it it’s so painful for him. Not to mention her moving on.
When i first respawned and heard this i just stopped and took this in. And wow this song just stuck with me. It truly is incredible hearing euradyce and orpheus and how it changes meaning.
This version is so miserable... I love it.
I didn't immediately get hooked by the story until Orpheus showed up. I just...really liked him for some reason. I really wanted to help him more than Zagreus in honesty.
I hope to remember this song when I'm old, so I can experience this joy again
Hearing Eurydice's version of this song is so blissful and heavenly, but WHY AM I A SOBBING MESS WHEN HE SINGS THE SAME SONG?!
I imagine Hades hearing that song at the desk with the same grumpy face but tearing apart inside, wishing the best for her beloved Persephone and her possible return.
Sorry if I make spoiler, but you have to know a lot since you are here.
In the actual myth. When he failed to save his wife he played constant sad music so powerful and full of sorrow the world wept with him. The Gods couldn’t stop him because even they were too over come by his sad music to do anything. Every time he tried to kill him self the world itself refused to let him die. Rocks smashed over his head would turn to sand, knives rusted and turned to dust before they touched him, water would carry him to shore, the wind would carry him back to the cliffs edge. He couldn’t die, because his music made the world feel too bad to let him die. I can only imagine how much Orpheus’s music is tearing Hades up inside and the grumpy god is doing his best to stone face the whole song.
Yeah, I’m pretty sure you get the reveal about Persephone before Orpheus
The singers performance is so good, you literally can’t help but stay and listen.
Shame this is not included in the official Hades soundtrack on Steam, it is the best version imo.

Its soooo beautiful. I remember coming back and Zagreus took note of how mournful it is. Also I wish this was included on the soundtrack..slight bummer there.
OH MY GOD!!!
I had no idea that Darren Korb provides the singing vocals for Orpheus, he sounds AMAZING!!! My heart literally exploded when I found this out.
I mean, this guy voices two characters, including the lead character. He's the composer and the audio director for Supergiant.
I mean, this is amazing. This is one the greatest games ever. ❤️❤️❤️🤯🤯🤯
This game... Is just so special
When I emerged from the styx and heard Orpheus playing this song, it absolutely changed how i felt about this game. It went from just being a cool game, to being a GREAT game.
I gasped out loud as soon I heard him.
His voice is so unique and perfect for this song. So much feeling in his words wtf genius
Who would have thought an ancient tragedy brought back to life would make you.. feel
The fact this is sung by Darren amazes me. This man has the vocal range of an actual God.
I love the tonal difference... its so moving 😩
I think there's a faint echo of eurydice's version of the song at "good riddance". I checked the other one and it seems it's the same only it's Orpheus this time around. Don't know if I'm right but it seems to only occur on that one part of the song. That's fucking cool.
Oh wow! I hadn’t even noticed that. Good catch! There totally is! There are other parts of the song that you can here the faint echo of Orpheus’s voice but at that good riddance it is definitely Eurydice!
My favorite version of the song, so sad and beautiful.
A shame that the "Orpheus only" version isn't on Spotify.
Damn that "farewell" at the start sent shivers when i respawned
I was singing along to this and I realized I was accidentally singing Eurydice's part and being a part of that harmony unexpectedly felt amazing!
Just want to say thanks to Darren Korb, His music have moved me since bastion.
I sat there for a good few minutes listening to this the first time this played.
Though as a musician it's kind of funny to see Orpheus holding a lyre while the music is clearly being played by a guitar-like instrument.
Edit: according to the composer, it's a Turkish Beglama
I heard this the first time barely a week after I left my toxic relationship with my fiancée. It was really sad and it brought me to tears immediately. It's been a bit over two months and I'm not quite over it all yet, but it doesn't feel sad anymore. It feels good.
I was full of rage after hades kicking my ass to comeback to this..
What was I mad about?
that’s basically everyones reaction when he sang in mythology
the bard that touched even the queen of the dead, people.
I teared up when I respawned and heard him singing. The fact that the next time I saw Eurydice and she was silent hurt
love that he’s singing the harmony to eurydice without her...mmm that heartbreak
When i heard the song, i was in pure awe, not only because it felt i was progressing a lot, but because i changed the world while so, and this song just told me all of this
I wonder why this isn't in the hades ost on spotify
Maybe in the future. worth the wait defi
I'm with you on that
@@orpheus1675 where cause I only see the Eurydice version and the duet version
@@orpheus1675 actually yeah I don’t see it anywhere what are you talking about?
You're truly a hero for sharing the Orpheus only version, it was the one track my copy of the OST was missing
Thank you for uploading this, I love his solo :)
Supergiant Games just LOVE those moments, don't they?
Early on in my playthrough, I came extremely close to completing my first run and barely failed. I felt incredibly bitter about it, but hearing this version of the song made that anger at myself short-lived. I think spending a good 5-10 minutes listening to it really helped me calm down enough to make peace with trying again the next day.
Eurydices version is one thing.
But I'm really vibing with this version.
It's hard to describe really
Weight of the Wo-o-ooooorld
That feeling when I died and resurfaced to hear Orpheus singing this...
Thank you for the upload! I've been looking for this song in the game folder, but no luck for me
It has been years, but I still remember the moment I first heard this song. What a gorgeous melody
When I heard this for the first time in game I actually started crying because I thought his voice sounded so beautiful, it still makes me tear up
Wonderful game with a wonderful soundtrack (yes, twice)
Transistor has my favorite soundtrack of all time.
I love eurydice but. orpheus's version of this song is just better. I sat here for like an hour straight listening to him sing this when I first got it
This version of the song is pure serotonin for me
It's too bad this solo version isn't on the official soundtrack, it's really good!
I'm truly starting to like his part more than Eurydice's ........
its so muse-y
I wish it had its own version on Spotify becuase I'm madly in love with this version
@@Elihu_Nonya uploader put a download link in the description. The saint even uploaded a wav file if you want it completely uncompressed.
The fact that this man voices Zagreus baffles me
It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right, I hope you had the time of your life.
This is strange, Orpheus sings this songs a lot sadder, but at the same time, it sounds sweeter and more hopefull at the same time.
Does this make sense?
Love how the way the song is sung gives it an entirely different meaning
Wow... i can't say I've ever heard someone sing at that octave. It both makes me uncomfortable and pleased at the same time.
This is the equivalent of "Uncanny Valley Music".
You mean this low?
I gotta say, I am surprised how well Darren can handle these extremes, both high AND low.
It's not the octave, but the tone of his voice that gives it that feeling.
Its quite beautiful, and its made rather fitting because its sung in falsetto. I don't know too much about classical/ancient greek music, but the idea of singing in falsetto fits the character Orpheus. The tale of Orpheus and Eurydice, being about musicians, was among the most frequent greek myths to be translated into opera. Orpheus, like most leading male roles in early opera, would have been performed by castrati, nowadays either a countertenor (male operatic falsetto singer) or woman.
The fact that Darren Korb not only holds to this tradition of the role of Orpheus but also makes it still sound incredible in a more modern musical context is incredibly impressive. Korb has my vote as best soundtrack composer out there, maybe tied with Austin Wintory.
@@tara-duncanmcleod3433 Not enough singers utilize Falsetto now and days. Most try and force that range into head voice. Only modern one I can think of is Brendon Urie

Simply Magnificent.
