It’s honestly amazing how much colgera feels like a final boss, from the entire fight taking place in the skies, colgeras threatening design, and how intense the theme is, and then you realize This is basically a TUTORIAL boss.
Yeah... they followed the same difficulty level order from BotW, Rito -> Zora -> Goron -> Gerudo, but to me only the Zora and Gerudo bosses kinda fit their place on the difficulty scale
@@izurukamukura6653 Funny cause besides difficultly in BOTW, it felt like the Zoras were the 1st race to visit since they’re the closest when going to Kakeriko Village & Hateno (if people chose to go there) while in TOTK, Pyra tells about the Curses Ganondorf placed in race’s areas of Hyrule & gives the hints of starting with the Ritos.
Whenever Colgera says “Worm”, I don’t think of an insect, I think of “Wyrm”. Meaning “dragon”. That’s how powerful MOTI’s voice made him feel. It really gives off the idea that Colgera is a force of nature, not to be trifled with. You could imagine him as a Frost Dragon and you wouldn’t have guessed that this song is about a giant bug.
I end up thinking of the more literal "worm" insofar as knowing that the phrase Conqueror Worm is a reference to Edgar Allen Poe. That Crawling, Writhing, Blood-Red THING described in the original poem which used the symbol of the "Worm" to describe hideous death and bloodshed.
I love Emily's delivery of "Die abomination!" It really gives the feeling of a teenager frustrated at something, even in the case where the thing is a giant monster killing people
I actually really like Alex's voice for Colgera here. In comparison to the more bombastic voice of Molgera, Colgera sounds more sluggish and withdrawn even in the fast-paced lyrics, like its own freezing body is slowing its emotion and energy down. Emily's voice fits Tulin perfectly ofc, and the lyrics are really fun; even barring the references to Molgera and Conqueror Worm, the wordplay and vocabulary fits the song's tempo and style so well
Imagine if Tulin's Sega Counterpart Miles "Tails" Prower said that in Sonic's Version of Tears Of The Kingdom. When someone makes a video of him fighting their version of Colgera. If they actually get an Ice ❄ ❄ Boss.
Love the callbacks to Molgera with the Conquerer worm poem, love to see it back but with more hope from the Rito side since Tears of the Kingdom is a more living world, reforging after one cataclysm and *refusing* with all its might to go down to another
@@sacripan4425 it’s not a WW thing it’s a real life poem by Edgar Allen Poe. It’s themes and phrases were used a lot in Molgera with Lyrics earlier on this channel a lot and since Colgera is a lot like Molgera, it’s a sort of remix of that
@@-voiddemoni-9243 Yeah, also, Pretty Sure Colgera is a Reincarnation Of Molgera, either way, when I was watching Molgera, it was a bit of a surprise to see Edgar Allen Poe's name come up, I only knew him for ELA CLass lol

I just feel like Tulins personality and confidence/determination shines here. Also the “finish what the past begun” part like come on Revali tribute right here
I love how Colgera is saying stuff like in darkness all you will find is anhiliation and time immemorial and tulin is just insulting it calling it a “muddled bug”
Can we appreciate how in the art Link has full batteries, bro's been procrastinating for a while considering one-third of a battery requires 100 crystallized charges. I think that adds a beautiful new layer to this.
@@The_three_best_friends I mean, if these videos came out in the order that Link did this adventure, that means he did the entire Master Kohga quest line almost immediately, and because the last one was right under Rito village he just did this quest next
I love the line (oh, we are rito, born to fly! Sail the skyward tide! Upon the wind we ride!) And (for home we broke the roaring ice! Climb to the top and dive! 'Till the sun fills the sky!) It's so good.
Just gonna point out the possible reference to both skyward sword and wind waker (most likely the latter of the two but still thought it was cool) in the lines :3
Tbh, I really like Colgera’s lyrics so i often find myself mumbling _”Time immemorial, spreading the starvation. Wind turn to boreal, bring the devastation.”_
I LOVE THE CONTRAST BETWEEN ALEX AND EMILY'S VOICES! In this dark duet across the wind and air, Colgera's voice powerfully rings as it emotionlessly prognosticates the doom of the two heroes. However, where Colgera's voice is dark and powerful, overcoming at times, Tulin's voice remains hopeful, yet not ignorant or blissful. Tulin understands that this is a monster, an "abomination" who caused pain to his home and people, and soon, that gloom may spread to all of Hyrule. Tulin's voice is bright, symbolizing the future he sees. As the duet grows more and more intense, and the battle progresses, Tulin's voice becomes brighter and Colgera's voice becomes darker and more sluggish. And at the end, the conqueror worm may rest in the tomb he created. In other words, I ADORE the voice acting! I'd argue that Emily's voice is perhaps the perfect voice for Tulin, the young sage. Alex: 10/10 Emily: 10/10 ...now we wait for a one hour extension.
I am going to say something rather controversial: this is the best boss fight in the game. The climb to the Wind Temple has some of the best set pieces in the game and is dangerous if you aren't prepared. The music is bone chilling, even going so far as to mock your victory at Vah Medoh as you approach the storm. The puzzles in the temple are fun and interesting and the skydiving mechanics are on full display. And once you complete them, Colgera appears, with a lonesome flute playing against the roaring chaos of the theme. I have seen people fire arrows at the purple section, and as that is a perfectly valid way of fighting this boss, what is arguably the cooler option is DIVING HEAD FIRST INTO THE PURPLE SECTIONS. This boss fight takes the mechanic of skydiving and weaponizes it. You use Tulin's gusts of wind for mobility. And the music is some of the best in the game. It's the stand of brothers in arms against a hurricane. But you are not alone. For a flock flies behind you, causing you to soar where no human has soared. What a brilliant fight.
i don't think this is controversial at all. the sound design for all of rito is amazing, and this boss is the coolest (and sadly the easiest). most everyone i've talked to agrees rito is the coolest, otherwise they say gerudo
@@tedscheett9420Ganondorf is better, and its not even close. Thematically Colgera is very cool, but the fight, although it fits well, a bit hard, but not enough to be a very hard challenge, the fight itself is only fun for its story. Which is valid, and it is still probably the most fun of the 4 main bosses. However, Ganondorf is straight up better. First of all, his story and theme is awesome, the pre-fight wave phase demonstrates how big of a deal this is, as well as how much more power you have now than when you first started, facing all these basic enemies easily. Next, the first phase perfectly demonstrates that Ganondorf does not see you as an obstacle to be avoided, but an enjoyable threat. Then, the 2nd phase shows the power of you and the sages as a team, as you can pretty much ignore the clones and focus on the true Ganondorf due to their help. 3rd phase, and now you get to the real fight, 2 master swordsmen facing off for the fate of a nation. Both the absorbing attacks that steal your hearts, and the fact he can dodge your attacks make the whole experience an absolute joy. It feels like a true duel to the death
It’s really difficult to make an easy boss really good. But the Colgera fight is the perfect example. Also I didn’t even realize you could use arrows until I rebought colgera in the depths.
I know a lot of people wanted teba to be the wind sage and no doubt he would have been great as one but tulin holds so much pride for his tribe and despite being the youngest of the sages has possibly the largest potential of being on par with their tribes former champion revali. I love how MOTI these lyrics really show tulins pride. Hope you do the sages themes like the champion they are all so freaking good.
Indeed; it really comes down to what you prefer in a story. I'd say Revali is the better example of what a Rito can accomplish, but he always held himself to that lonely standard of being his tribe's Champion, to the point where his arc concludes with him realizing that while Link "could never hope to make it up to Vah Medoh on his own", Revali in turn could've never united all of Hyrule to stand against the Calamity on his own. In turn, Tulin feels like an evolution of what they were going for with Revali, making him an example of what the Rito are about. He too tries and fails to solve the mystery of the blizzard on his own, and you have to save him from a similar fate. But you can't make it to the Stormwind Ark on your own either, and so your journey serves to teach Tulin a lesson Revali never learned in life - that no individual, not even Hyrule's Champion, can do it all or should be expected to. And at the end of his arc, Tulin knows that he not only has the entire Rito tribe ready to stand behind him in support, but all of Hyrule.
I love the duet between the boss and the sage! Makes the song seem like a real duel between light and darkness! Cant wait for the other boss songs, maybe they will be duets as well
Two tracks in and I'm already super hyped. This amazing Colgera cover right off the back of Kohga. I really like the back and forth feel of the bits with both Colgera and Tulin, you can feel the high spirits and refusal to back down, even in the face of a monstrous beast.
There's something special about the fact that in the last "now you face the conqueror worm", Tulin's voice is so much louder than Colgera's, like he and Link are really managing to overcome this massive ice monster. That's really one detail I like out of several, you did one of my favorite game soundtracks so much justice that I might be addicted to this song.
This is my new favorite MOTI song, everything about it is just so good! I especially love all the “-ation” rhymes. It’s just literally music to my ears! Fantastic!
-ations in the order I found them: 1. Starvation 2. Devastation 3. Creation 4. Isolation 5. Precipitation 6. Confrontation 7. Aviation 8. Salvation 9. Annihilation 10. Abomination 11. Nation 12. Damnation 13. Glaciation 14. Cremation 15. Degradation That is 15 -ations rhymed with one another. That is a LOT of -ations.
@@ThatGuardenerFan 1. Desolation 2. Immolation 3. Coronation 4. Abberation 5. Discontinuation 6. Overstimulation 7. Desertification 8. Insubordination 9. Electrification 10. Crystallization Here's 10 more instead of 5, just for fun. There's a lot more.
I heard the theme and I butst into tears because not only was it memorable it was also just so fitting for this scenario im glad they finally added lyrics here
It's really fun seeing the many references to your Molgera's song from three years ago in your Colgera's work. The usage of the sentences: "The world will never change" "The tragedy of man" and of course "The conqueror worm" are all references to this previous song and I guess it makes sense, since to some degree Colgera and Molgera are probably related. Good stuff! Also you definitely nailed the Rito's theme lyrics! It really feels so powerful and prideful, worthy of the Rito for sure.
🎶”Oh we are Rito, born to fly! Sail the skyward tide! Upon the winds we ride!”🎶 being sung with the Dragon Roost motif, the original Rito theme, is just PERFECT!
As the first song to ever make me absolutely bawl my eyes out because of my emotional connection to the Dragon Roost theme, BLESS. THIS. REMIX. Especially Emily as Tulin! Emily's range as a voice actor has always astounded me and seeing her as my lil guy is a treat. Incredible vocal work on everyone's part and wonderful lyrics! Keep up the fantastic work!
actually so good wtf, tulin’s voice is literally perfect and i was not expecting colgate to have a voice! but i mean it is alex so i guess it makes sense.
Took me a couple days but i figured out why i love Colgera's character in the lyrics. It reminds me of the personalities of Kyurem and Molgera combined, and that just hits so well.
"Oh, we are Rito, born to fly!" etc. BRO I GOT TEARS IN MY EYES THIS IS SO GOOD! Wind Waker was my first Zelda game and Dragon Root Island was where I first started to love the series. The Colgera boss fight was truly a full circle moment for me and you have made it even better! Bravo everyone involved!
Lyrics Time immemorial, spreading the starvation Wind, turn to boreal, bring the devastation So falls creation to the conqueror worm Oh, we are Rito, born to fly Sail the skyward tide Upon the wind we ride Too long we’ve huddled up lost in isolation Now found this muddled bug caused precipitation This confrontation ends this frozen term For home we broke the roaring ice Climb to the top and dive ‘Til the sun fills the sky The world will never change The Demon King decrees Your deaths will be in vain The kingdom’s hope will freeze Not while I’m flying free When the lark makes its mark We fly where eagles dare Just to see what’s there We, who sail the air Break the storm and sail the air Too long we’ve huddled up lost in isolation Now found this muddled bug caused precipitation Time immemorial, spreading the starvation Wind, turn to boreal, bring the devastation Sailing the skyward tide, saving aviation I am the Rito’s pride! We are their salvation In darkness all you find is annihilation Die, abomination Now we face the conqueror worm From darkness rose the gloom, spread across the nation With malice comes your doom, accept your damnation Through glaciation comes your kingdom’s end Oh, we are Rito, born to fly Sail the skyward tide Upon the wind we ride We dared the raging storm for this confrontation We’ll get the weather warm, start with your cremation No more degradation! Not while we still can ascend For home we broke the roaring ice Climb to the top and dive ‘Til the sun fills the sky The world will never change You know it never can Your deaths will be in vain The tragedy of man I’ll finish what the past began When the lark makes its mark We fly where eagles dare Just to see what’s there We, who sail the air Break the storm and sail the air Too long we’ve huddled up lost in isolation Now found this muddled bug caused precipitation Time immemorial, spreading the starvation Wind, turn to boreal, bring the devastation Sailing the skyward tide, saving aviation I am the Rito’s pride! We are their salvation In darkness all you find is annihilation Die, abomination Now we face the conqueror worm Oh, we are Rito, born to fly Sail the skyward tide Upon the wind we ride
@@A_Random_Eevee sometimes its easier for people to sing along if they know the upcoming lyrics before hand instead of them showing the lyrics right when the line is being sung
Absolutely love this! Gotta say the fact Colgera has a voice just makes this song a hundred percent more epic. Tulin's lyrics are perfect and I felt genuine chills at the Rito, we are born to fly! lyrics. Phenomenal cover!
Yeah It's interesting. When they make Sonic's version of Tears Of The Kingdom. They're needs to be an Ice ❄ ❄ Boss. Which would be Colgera's Sega Counterpart.
I'm aware the most likely reason this was made was due to this song's popularity, but hearing possible lyrics for the other bosses would be amazing. (also, 10/10 cover and lyrics)
Is it wrong that I predicted that this would be the next song Also I’m surprised that Colgera has a personality this time, he’s more menacing this way.
I gotta say... I LOVE THIS! It was already my favorite theme in this game, and these lyrics are amazing! MOTI, you outdid yourself making this divine cover!
I can not tell you how many emotions I felt when I first faced this boss. The wind temple being a ship, their boss being a new version of Molgera, then the dragon roost island part of the song start playing and blew me away. This is my single favorite track to come out of Zelda in the recent years. I'm glad to see you do a lyrics video for it.
I love how it feels like a conversation between Colgera and Tulin (with Link chipping in a bit during the chorus). The creepiness of Colgera trying to wear down his opponent’s determination versus Tulin’s defiant retaliation. So cool.
Colgera!! Been waiting for forever! It's so good, love the callbacks and it was honestly my favorite track from the game. Glad you covered it! Great as always, MOTI!
Fun fact: During the Boss Fight, Link can simply dive straight through the ice sections (after the spikes have fired off), thus saving Link bow and arrow usage. It's meant to be a prep-test for when Link inevitably faces the Demon Dragon, and has to dive through the fiery balls of gloom in order to reach the sacred stone on its forehead.
The first time I fought the boss, I didn’t know you could dive through them. I never even saw him shoot the spikes up. When I saw the underbelly when he first flew up, I saw weak points. So, I immediately dive under and shot upwards. And did the same for the second phase. I never saw the tornadoes that pulled you down. Haha.
I never noticed when playing, but makes total sense here that the song takes motifs from the Rito/Dragonroost themes as well as sounding vaguely like Molgera's theme in Wind Waker, a boss that in retrospect it's clearly partially based on and both have themes that go WAY harder than they needed to. Great work on the lyrics as usual!
And thus, i must play *both* wind waker and totk game soley for this song I love how the lyrics feel so empowering on Tulin's end, like that lone flute braveing the storm of the song trying to create a path for the song I can also just imagine the windwaker's rito joining the background choir as if to asist in spirit Its, again, an empowering song, and i love it
This is the one I’ve been waiting for!!! Ahhhh I’m so glad we got this banger!!! And I love the references to Molgera’s and Revali’s songs so much. Ahh.
“Oh, we are Rito, born to fly! Sail the skyward tide! Upon the wind we ride!” and "For home we broke the roaring ice! Climb up the top and dive! Till the sun fills the sky!" That hit hard best part of the song brings BOTW and WW nostalgia
Whoa. Talk about ascension! The Dragon Roost callback was already the best part of the song, but now with the chorus of the Rito, it brings even more fitting chills than before! Amazing work, guys.
Honestly if Teba was not so occupied with handling supplies and being the chief, I say he would follow his son and we can get a father and son duet between the two
It was too much to hope the full song would get covered. But honestly after hearing this, they did such a good job with the best part of the song. It was a pleasure to hear
You guys are insanely awesome! The way you make the lyrics feel like they belong there, like they’d been missing all this time and now the song is complete. The powerful delivery from a whole group of singers sends chills down my spine. I loved this song before you happened to it and it’s even better now!
When you think about it, this is probably the most epic fight in TOTK... after a long climb, you soar above the clouds, only to just as quickly dive back down onto a giant flying boat. Then, after an arduous dungeon, you finally open up the hatch that contains this monstrosity. You then proceed to dive through (or shoot at) a huge ice dragon bug while skydiving in the eye of a blizzard, with your best boy Tulin at your back.
2 things. 1. This Lyrics Is Awesome And The Song In General Is Amazing And I love It. 2. MOTI Sounds Like A Zelda Villain, WAYYY Too Much. And it makes Me Want To Draw My Master Sword Against Him In An EPIC Battle.
Colgera is one of my all-time favorite pieces of music and you guys floored me with this one. Emily’s passionate voice made me tear up (no pun intended) several times.
0:23 - I love how Tulin’s lines here sound like the anthem of the Rito people as a whole. 0:23 and 0:44 sound like a bit of history; like an oral tradition passed down from one generation to the next in the form of song, which is super fitting for a race of bird-folk! Amazing!
This whole song is amazing, but I think my favourite part about it has to be how much emotion Emily puts in the "Die, Abomination" line, especially at the end
I didn't know this song was so good. I didn't really get to hear it because the fight was over as quickly as it started because I instantly knew to go under, in fact I didn't know that you could attack from above. I'm glad this is how I really heard it from the first time.
A young courageous young boy who has the power to command the wind teams up with a noble warrior from generations past in hopes of rescuing his family. Tulin=Toon Link Bonus Point: Tulin would absolutely cosplay link if given even the slightest prompting.
EMILY DID *GREAT!* The power of her vocals as Tulin was marvelous! And Alex did great, too! Not too much autotune on either of them, nor too many effect. You have gained a sub.
AAHHHHHHH! YES! YESYESYESYESYESYESSS!!! This is one of my absolute FAVORITE Zelda songs, not just from TotK, but from the Legend of Zelda series as a whole! This was INCREDIBLE, and I LOVE the references to Molgera's theme! AHHAHA! IT'S SO GOOD!
It’s honestly amazing how much colgera feels like a final boss, from the entire fight taking place in the skies, colgeras threatening design, and how intense the theme is, and then you realize
This is basically a TUTORIAL boss.
Yep, and in my opinion this is the second best boss in the game, second only to the final boss
It’s funny when the 1st boss in a game seems to be the best of them whether by appearance, battle music or even both.

@@cosasdelascosas2687 you realize that was over a decade ago, right?
That's was 2011, so.... 12 years.
I know a lot of people wanted teba to be the wind sage and no doubt he would have been great as one but tulin holds so much pride for his tribe and despite being the youngest of the sages has possibly the largest potential of being on par with their tribes former champion revali. I love how MOTI these lyrics really show tulins pride. Hope you do the sages themes like the champion they are all so freaking good.
Indeed; it really comes down to what you prefer in a story. I'd say Revali is the better example of what a Rito can accomplish, but he always held himself to that lonely standard of being his tribe's Champion, to the point where his arc concludes with him realizing that while Link "could never hope to make it up to Vah Medoh on his own", Revali in turn could've never united all of Hyrule to stand against the Calamity on his own.
In turn, Tulin feels like an evolution of what they were going for with Revali, making him an example of what the Rito are about. He too tries and fails to solve the mystery of the blizzard on his own, and you have to save him from a similar fate. But you can't make it to the Stormwind Ark on your own either, and so your journey serves to teach Tulin a lesson Revali never learned in life - that no individual, not even Hyrule's Champion, can do it all or should be expected to. And at the end of his arc, Tulin knows that he not only has the entire Rito tribe ready to stand behind him in support, but all of Hyrule.
OOOOOH!! I really love the power that the vocals have when Tulin comes in for the first time :D
Me Too. What if Tulin's Sega Counterpart Tails was like that?
Love the dueling duet between monster and sage. Fantastic performance from both sides.
I love the duet between the boss and the sage! Makes the song seem like a real duel between light and darkness! Cant wait for the other boss songs, maybe they will be duets as well
I think they only did this song because it was iconic, I think they’re skipping most of the other bosses now.
@@chadpeterson5698 please no we need Moti's take on Yunobo
@@ThatGuardenerFanwe might get lucky, but I don’t think it’s likely. Unless they have all the sages in a Phantom Ganon or Ganondorf cover.

well fuck
I love the Callbacks to Molgera the musical, because Colgera is just a Reincarnation of Molgera. Proving that the world will never change
it will only turn
The tragedy of man
The conqueror worm
The wind through the flowers.
@@cocheeseknox7440The wind through the flowers!
I think we can all agree this is one of the greatest that deserves a one hour version.
you won’t have to wait long :)
I agree. This has to be the single greatest boss theme.
Don’t mind me-just listening this song on repeat until it happens.
Felt that brothers and/or sisters
Two tracks in and I'm already super hyped. This amazing Colgera cover right off the back of Kohga.
I really like the back and forth feel of the bits with both Colgera and Tulin, you can feel the high spirits and refusal to back down, even in the face of a monstrous beast.
Three songs, they also did the main theme and it was real dang good!
There's something special about the fact that in the last "now you face the conqueror worm", Tulin's voice is so much louder than Colgera's, like he and Link are really managing to overcome this massive ice monster.
That's really one detail I like out of several, you did one of my favorite game soundtracks so much justice that I might be addicted to this song.
Let’s be honest, we would’ve rioted if colgera wasn’t included.
There is no other word than: _Beautiful_
Not just beautiful, perfection!
This is my new favorite MOTI song, everything about it is just so good! I especially love all the “-ation” rhymes. It’s just literally music to my ears! Fantastic!
“How many -ation rhymes do you want to fit into one song?”
MOTI: yes.
-ations in the order I found them:
1. Starvation
2. Devastation
3. Creation
4. Isolation
5. Precipitation
6. Confrontation
7. Aviation
8. Salvation
9. Annihilation
10. Abomination
11. Nation
12. Damnation
13. Glaciation
14. Cremation
15. Degradation
That is 15 -ations rhymed with one another. That is a LOT of -ations.

“Oh, we are rito, Born to fly“ is my favorite part.
Same
That part is also the high note of dragon roost island in wind waker
I heard the theme and I butst into tears because not only was it memorable it was also just so fitting for this scenario im glad they finally added lyrics here
It's really fun seeing the many references to your Molgera's song from three years ago in your Colgera's work. The usage of the sentences: "The world will never change" "The tragedy of man" and of course "The conqueror worm" are all references to this previous song and I guess it makes sense, since to some degree Colgera and Molgera are probably related. Good stuff! Also you definitely nailed the Rito's theme lyrics! It really feels so powerful and prideful, worthy of the Rito for sure.
🎶”Oh we are Rito, born to fly! Sail the skyward tide! Upon the winds we ride!”🎶 being sung with the Dragon Roost motif, the original Rito theme, is just PERFECT!
As the first song to ever make me absolutely bawl my eyes out because of my emotional connection to the Dragon Roost theme, BLESS. THIS. REMIX. Especially Emily as Tulin! Emily's range as a voice actor has always astounded me and seeing her as my lil guy is a treat. Incredible vocal work on everyone's part and wonderful lyrics! Keep up the fantastic work!
actually so good wtf, tulin’s voice is literally perfect and i was not expecting colgate to have a voice!
but i mean it is alex so i guess it makes sense.
Colgate
Non subtle advertising
Toothpaste
My favorite element in totk is toothpaste
And don't forget everyone's favorite brand of toothpaste: Colgera
Took me a couple days but i figured out why i love Colgera's character in the lyrics. It reminds me of the personalities of Kyurem and Molgera combined, and that just hits so well.
Now that you mention it, it reminds me of Kyurem for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Gates to Infinity.
Tbh colgera reminded me of Giratina (origin forme especially) cause of its portal powers.
"Oh, we are Rito, born to fly!" etc. BRO I GOT TEARS IN MY EYES THIS IS SO GOOD! Wind Waker was my first Zelda game and Dragon Root Island was where I first started to love the series. The Colgera boss fight was truly a full circle moment for me and you have made it even better! Bravo everyone involved!
Lyrics
Time immemorial, spreading the starvation
Wind, turn to boreal, bring the devastation
So falls creation to the conqueror worm
Oh, we are Rito, born to fly
Sail the skyward tide
Upon the wind we ride
Too long we’ve huddled up lost in isolation
Now found this muddled bug caused precipitation
This confrontation ends this frozen term
For home we broke the roaring ice
Climb to the top and dive
‘Til the sun fills the sky
The world will never change
The Demon King decrees
Your deaths will be in vain
The kingdom’s hope will freeze
Not while I’m flying free
When the lark makes its mark
We fly where eagles dare
Just to see what’s there
We, who sail the air
Break the storm and sail the air
Too long we’ve huddled up lost in isolation
Now found this muddled bug caused precipitation
Time immemorial, spreading the starvation
Wind, turn to boreal, bring the devastation
Sailing the skyward tide, saving aviation
I am the Rito’s pride! We are their salvation
In darkness all you find is annihilation
Die, abomination
Now we face the conqueror worm
From darkness rose the gloom, spread across the nation
With malice comes your doom, accept your damnation
Through glaciation comes your kingdom’s end
Oh, we are Rito, born to fly
Sail the skyward tide
Upon the wind we ride
We dared the raging storm for this confrontation
We’ll get the weather warm, start with your cremation
No more degradation! Not while we still can ascend
For home we broke the roaring ice
Climb to the top and dive
‘Til the sun fills the sky
The world will never change
You know it never can
Your deaths will be in vain
The tragedy of man
I’ll finish what the past began
When the lark makes its mark
We fly where eagles dare
Just to see what’s there
We, who sail the air
Break the storm and sail the air
Too long we’ve huddled up lost in isolation
Now found this muddled bug caused precipitation
Time immemorial, spreading the starvation
Wind, turn to boreal, bring the devastation
Sailing the skyward tide, saving aviation
I am the Rito’s pride! We are their salvation
In darkness all you find is annihilation
Die, abomination
Now we face the conqueror worm
Oh, we are Rito, born to fly
Sail the skyward tide
Upon the wind we ride
You do know the video has lyrics already, right?
@@A_Random_Eevee sometimes its easier for people to sing along if they know the upcoming lyrics before hand instead of them showing the lyrics right when the line is being sung
@@A_Random_Eevee To copy and paste.
@@Megggazap fair point.
Absolutely love this! Gotta say the fact Colgera has a voice just makes this song a hundred percent more epic. Tulin's lyrics are perfect and I felt genuine chills at the Rito, we are born to fly! lyrics. Phenomenal cover!
Wasn’t expecting Colgera to speak, but I’m so glad he does!
Yeah It's interesting. When they make Sonic's version of Tears Of The Kingdom. They're needs to be an Ice ❄ ❄ Boss. Which would be Colgera's Sega Counterpart.
It’s here! And it’s even more beautiful than I ever imagined!
I like that slight distortion you did for Colgera’s voice.
Do I know you?
@@jacobs5546 Hmm……
Yes.
@@GerudoKing_ Hmmm
Cool.
How do you know him he’s just a Gerudo king… no one dangerous…
@@drakejohnson7294 We met in a Livestream before.
I'm aware the most likely reason this was made was due to this song's popularity, but hearing possible lyrics for the other bosses would be amazing.
(also, 10/10 cover and lyrics)
Is it wrong that I predicted that this would be the next song
Also I’m surprised that Colgera has a personality this time, he’s more menacing this way.
Nah, I don’t think it is. Besides, I predicted that this would get a MOTI cover back when they released the main theme with lyrics
I predicted that Master Kohga was coming last week, so I believe you!
I wonder if the Demon Dragon with get a song like this too.
@@GerudoKing_I hope Ganondorf gets a turn as well
@@chadpeterson5698 True. There’s a lot to work with in his theme.
I gotta say... I LOVE THIS!
It was already my favorite theme in this game, and these lyrics are amazing!
MOTI, you outdid yourself making this divine cover!
I can not tell you how many emotions I felt when I first faced this boss. The wind temple being a ship, their boss being a new version of Molgera, then the dragon roost island part of the song start playing and blew me away. This is my single favorite track to come out of Zelda in the recent years. I'm glad to see you do a lyrics video for it.
The wind temple boss… blew you away… heh..
wowie, i usually dont really like when people add lyrics to game osts such as this, but this is AWESOME
I love how it feels like a conversation between Colgera and Tulin (with Link chipping in a bit during the chorus). The creepiness of Colgera trying to wear down his opponent’s determination versus Tulin’s defiant retaliation. So cool.
Colgera!! Been waiting for forever! It's so good, love the callbacks and it was honestly my favorite track from the game. Glad you covered it! Great as always, MOTI!
Fun fact: During the Boss Fight, Link can simply dive straight through the ice sections (after the spikes have fired off), thus saving Link bow and arrow usage. It's meant to be a prep-test for when Link inevitably faces the Demon Dragon, and has to dive through the fiery balls of gloom in order to reach the sacred stone on its forehead.
Fun Fact : I didn't know I was supposed to use the bow until I seen this video......
The first time I fought the boss, I didn’t know you could dive through them. I never even saw him shoot the spikes up. When I saw the underbelly when he first flew up, I saw weak points. So, I immediately dive under and shot upwards. And did the same for the second phase. I never saw the tornadoes that pulled you down. Haha.
I had massive chills when I heard, "Oh, we are Rito, born to fly," This lyrical version is so good that it fits the thene perfectly
I never noticed when playing, but makes total sense here that the song takes motifs from the Rito/Dragonroost themes as well as sounding vaguely like Molgera's theme in Wind Waker, a boss that in retrospect it's clearly partially based on and both have themes that go WAY harder than they needed to.
Great work on the lyrics as usual!
WE’RE BECOMING THE SAGE OF WIND WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🗣️🗣️
And thus, i must play *both* wind waker and totk game soley for this song
I love how the lyrics feel so empowering on Tulin's end, like that lone flute braveing the storm of the song trying to create a path for the song
I can also just imagine the windwaker's rito joining the background choir as if to asist in spirit
Its, again, an empowering song, and i love it
I havent played ToTk but OMG THAT THING IS SO COOL LOOKING AND THE MUSIC IS SO GOOD OMG!!!
*Do it* you wont regret it.
If you do play it try to avoid spoilers as much as you can so don’t do research on this boss in the video as it’s a major boss in the game
Alex is so good at this! The way he says “Time Immemorial” gives me chills. Who knew Axis model 014 could also be a giant ice beast?
I THINK I LITERALLY ASCENDED DURING THAT CHORUS OML THIS WAS SO GOOD
This is the one I’ve been waiting for!!! Ahhhh I’m so glad we got this banger!!! And I love the references to Molgera’s and Revali’s songs so much. Ahh.
“Oh, we are Rito, born to fly!
Sail the skyward tide!
Upon the wind we ride!”
and
"For home we broke the roaring ice!
Climb up the top and dive!
Till the sun fills the sky!"
That hit hard best part of the song brings BOTW and WW nostalgia
Whoa. Talk about ascension! The Dragon Roost callback was already the best part of the song, but now with the chorus of the Rito, it brings even more fitting chills than before! Amazing work, guys.
Duuuuuuude, I knew this one would end up good but the Molgera references have got me STANDING.
I love how none of the rito want to adventure the storm because they're all too scared to go up there but tulin is like ''sure ill do it.''
"Fine, I'll do it myself"
"Nah, I'd win"
"A'ight, bet"
Honestly if Teba was not so occupied with handling supplies and being the chief, I say he would follow his son and we can get a father and son duet between the two
My goodness the "We are rito born to fly" sends tingles down your spine
I am not kidding when i mean the hair stood up on my head, actual chills. This is amazing. Cannot express this enough.
The conqueror worm poem callbacks! The songtober Dragonroost Isle callbacks!! The Molgera callbacks!!! IT'S ALL SO GOOD!!!
WOW, the chorus of the Rito behind Tulin, paired against the deep, beastly tone of Colgera is AWESOME. I feel like I'm watching Mulan again!
THANK YOU! this is my favorite track of this game and you did it justice with all these reverences.
It was too much to hope the full song would get covered.
But honestly after hearing this, they did such a good job with the best part of the song.
It was a pleasure to hear
This is so perfect! From all of the callbacks to molgera to Tulin’s perfect vocals to the cuphead reference (lol). Great job!
Tulin has come in clutch and saved my from certain death dozens of times. Anyone who wants to mess with him gotta go through me.
@@Cyberdyne_research Agreed
I adore Colgera’s voice actor here. The vocal sounds exactly like what you would expect a monster of that size and shape to sound. Amazing job to all.
It's quite ironic how the boss from the cold, windy temple always gives me chills when listening to its theme
You guys are insanely awesome! The way you make the lyrics feel like they belong there, like they’d been missing all this time and now the song is complete. The powerful delivery from a whole group of singers sends chills down my spine. I loved this song before you happened to it and it’s even better now!
When you think about it, this is probably the most epic fight in TOTK... after a long climb, you soar above the clouds, only to just as quickly dive back down onto a giant flying boat. Then, after an arduous dungeon, you finally open up the hatch that contains this monstrosity. You then proceed to dive through (or shoot at) a huge ice dragon bug while skydiving in the eye of a blizzard, with your best boy Tulin at your back.
A Big Worm and a Preteen Bird having Simultaneously the most and least chill rap battle known to man.
literally chill, too,
Strong nostalgia. Played this all the time last year on new years when my brother came to visit. This theme reminds me of all the fun we had
fast pace flute = good song
also i love the lyrics especially the chorus (the part that starts with "to long we huddled up" absolutely slaps)
I can't understand how you come up with these absolute masterpieces, it's truly amazing!!
The voice for colgera is perfect
That "Oh we are Rito born to fly" sequence is the best
Absolute masterpiece. The rymes are really well made and it fits the already perfect music really well. You really outdid yourselves
Yes!! I had been thinking of how a Colgera with lyrics could work, and this is perfectly how I imagined! Amazing job as always!
I’m glad they didn’t go too deep with colgera voice is kinda deep but not so deep it’s weird I like it
Emily did so good on this one, she also did such a good job on fly octo fly
Nice a cool lyrics video for one of the best Zelda boss. Good job, showing how both Colgera and Rito feel to each other and sake of village,
I dont know why but i Colgera's voice. Tulin is excellent too. I have listened to this song 50+ times. Great lyrics too
I'm gonna play this on repeat for two nights for every like this comment gets.

Colgera is one of my all-time favorite pieces of music and you guys floored me with this one. Emily’s passionate voice made me tear up (no pun intended) several times.
0:23 - I love how Tulin’s lines here sound like the anthem of the Rito people as a whole.
0:23 and 0:44 sound like a bit of history; like an oral tradition passed down from one generation to the next in the form of song, which is super fitting for a race of bird-folk! Amazing!
I'M CRYING SO HARD... THIS IS LEGIT A MASTERPIECE!!! THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS... I HAVE SO MUCH NOSTALGIA WITH WIND WAKER...💛💛💛😭😭😭
I love how when they say: oh we are riot born to fly. Sends shivers
This whole song is amazing, but I think my favourite part about it has to be how much emotion Emily puts in the "Die, Abomination" line, especially at the end
If this was on Spotify I would listen to it so often
I didn't know this song was so good. I didn't really get to hear it because the fight was over as quickly as it started because I instantly knew to go under, in fact I didn't know that you could attack from above. I'm glad this is how I really heard it from the first time.
This is incredible and amazing! Everything about this is just so perfect! Everyone who helped make this is so talented and amazing! ❤️
0:23 I love this part.
