I'm working on a jumpscare-free version as well, though that will be up a couple days after since I've been pretty busy preparing multiple things. It'll be linked in the pinned, and in the description, and in a card at the top of the screen during the content warning when it's ready.
Yet again, the god of music that is Juno makes pure greatness. Not to sound completely twisted, but any chance you could post all the art used in the last part?
I like how this one actually gives a small hopeful twist at the end with him basically saying "I never could control my fate and end, but maybe you and those after you can. Keep fighting"
Former Trainer Art Theories/Explanations 3:40 Brendan- Dried up due to Groundon scorching the earth. May- Drowned by Kyogre flooding the world over. 3:43 Dawn- Enslaved for eternity by Hell's Bell (coming soon, I suppose). Hilda- Assassinated and crucified by Team Plazma, in order to gain control of Reshiram/Zekrom for the events of B/W 2. 3:52 Calem- Forcefully turned into new life by Xerneas. Serena- Drained of her life due to temperance with Yveltal. 3:53 Selene/Elio- Poisoned and torn to shreds by Nihilego-infused Lusamine. Victor/Gloria- Rejecting the trainers ,the Rusted Sword/Shield fly back after attempted use, impaling them both. 4:09 Juliana- Mauled by the Alpha Koraidon. (Because why not) Ethan(Gold)- Torn limb from limb by the remainders of Team Rocket. Unown house his body afterwards, giving the illusion of life. (This was such a great follow up, good work!)
Love the theories, but I think Ethan died from the cold in mount silver, explaining the empty eye sockets (and the missing limbs might have been cause by wild pokemons eating his corspe ...yikes)
I like how the entire time he was projecting his hopelessness onto boyfriend but by the end seeing how boyfriend survived the perish song and how determined he is realizes it and tell’s boyfriend to keep fighting because he is different from everyone thats fallen before him
The anger in Gold's voice during the No More part will never cease to amaze me. He's basically saying how life is hopeless no matter how much we weave it, and at the end were he realizes that BF knows that his fate is written he still fights and he admires that and tells BF to basically dream on, I love it! another banger w/ lyrics from Juno
honestly justified kid did everything he could saved the word and everything only to die a likely brutal death and not even be able to move on being trapped in a black void cursed with the knowledge that those before him and those who will come after him all share the same fate and nothing can be done to sop it and ontop of all that hes still "alive" while the unown live inside his body puppeteering his every movement even forcibly ripping off his head and spin and replacing his empty eyes with themselves. kid did nothing wrong yet hes subjected to agony AND suffers cursed knowledge that's beyond his control
I might have come close to death many times but I believe my soul shall live on. Ru2 we can’t f1gh2 1t hurry next post Jul 27 get ready end is power time can’t save me or you you and I shall parish in time like gold said save m3 and yourself fast we’re dead soon just hurry? (Part removed)
I low-key love it that (my interpretation of the ending) Ethan is basically saying "Oi, mate, grab fate by the balls and become known while you still got the chance to."
I like to think that No More is gold's last gasp of life, bleeding through his Unown puppeteers, seeing as, as you said, there's true passion there. He's not calmly singing, he's violently screaming. And that ending. Those last 4 bars Are the most powerful in the entire song. Kudos to the Hypnos Lullaby team, kudos to the artists, the charters, coders, musicians, and above all, applause to Juno for making this masterpiece
4:00 This verse is one of the best I've heard from a with lyrics video, it sounds so elegant and really portrays Golds epiphany that not everyone is doomed to fail
"Champion CROSSED OFF, SPLIT IN TWAIN" "The SUN and MOON dim and wane" "The SWORDS and SHIELDS will rust away" "All LEGENDS shall be slain" "SCARLET Blood and VIOLET Flesh are all that remain..."
I like that Juno expresses that 2:34 is the only line we get out of Gold in this whole video through the absolute agony in which "NO MORE" comes out which strikingly contrasts the pretty monotone inflection heard prior, and the similar tone it precedes. It really hammers in to me that Monochrome is a battle against The Unown, and has nothing to do with Gold. His only contribution to the song is to desperately beg for its end before being twisted and mangled even further beyond repair, just to be piloted by his puppeteers even more. Another amazing project from Juno, makes me re-appreciate this incredible song all over again 👏
The song is literally about Gold achieving more than any other Pokémon protagonist and him dying and being forgotten overtime why would the unowns sing about that
Idk why but I love that it sounds like Gold is snarling "valiant children" to me he just sounds so angry that, yeah they were children sent on quests to save the world from impossible odds
3:23 *Champions crossed off, split in twain* *The sun and moon will dim and wane* *Oh swords and shields will rust away* *All legends shall be slain* *Scarlet blood and violet flesh* *Are all that remain* *Of the valiant children* *Doomed to hang in future's chains*
It's actually a lot easier then you may realize. It's all about taking small moments to breathe between words. And usually between the sentences themselves.
Fun facts about the song: As gold is listing all the games in the series in the song, pokemon gold is the only one out of order. Juliana's "bad ending" artwork is the only one displayed just once, everyone elses is shown at least twice. Dawn's "bad ending" artwork references another song in the hypno's lullaby mod, death toll, the only artwork to do so. Juliana and Serena are the only ones not wearing their signature head accessories. If you look closely during 3:49, you can see every protagonist's names in unown And that's all the facts I got
I found RED LEAF KRIS LYRA BRENDAN MAY DAWN LUCAS HILDA HILBERT ROSA NATE CALEM SERENA SELENE ELIO VICTOR GLORIA FLORIAN JULIANA And finally... ETHAN (GOLD)
In 'im dead' phase Gold is telling us the fate of all other trainers from the games telling their tragic legacy. The fact this doesn't discourage BF surprises Gold and brings him hope that not all champions end in tragedy.
The context is probably that BF is now just like any pokemon protag. Iconic outfit,legendary battles,etc. The other protags are already dead to gold,and he is ready to claim another,but is convinced otherwise
@@ElizeniasFunkinArtNVA what about red we never saw what happened to him, also aren’t you basically saying that gold/Ethan made the hell bell kill dawn?
@@Thereturnofmarcus when he faced Red,he was alive and a pokemon champion though,he didnt kill Leaf either,so i guess he left the ones before him alive. As for Dawn,maybe Ethan and the Unown just sent her there as a way to kill em,all the protags are killed and tortured very differently,some crucified and some turned into literal skeletons but im not too sure about Dawn
My jaw dropped as Gold started naming Gens 6-9, and it proceeded to make like a Mega Glalie and snap off in awe when the gorey protags appeared aswell. Your Monochrome with Lyrics has already branded itself in my mind, and I say with no hyperbole that this is such an incredible extension.
The part where he just barks out “the sun and moon will dim and wane” has to be some of the best singing I’ve heard in a while. It’s stuck with me so dang hard
I love sundrop and moondrop (design wise, personality wise I prefer tsams) so that line made me fall in love with this song HARD (Not to mention Scarlet blood and *VIOLET* flesh! Set off all my FNaF sensors)
Loved the details in the "bad ending" artwork! 1. Brendan dried to a husk and May drowning (Groudon and Kyogre, respectively) 2. Dawn facing the Bronzong (Hell Bell) 3. HIlda crucified (Manga reference) 4. Calem with the antlers twining through him and Serena a lifeless husk (Xerneas and YAHVELTAL) 5. Elio and Selene facing the Nihilego(?) 6. Gloria and Victor killed by the Shield and Sword respectively 7. Florian getting torn to shreds by Koraidon Fantastic work as always!
What one do you think is the darkest? I’d go with Calem’s as he’s very much still alive. Xerneas is the pokemon of life so those antlers probably will never kill him.
Okay the “PERISH mix” part of this is unironically so good. I love how you can sort of feel his voice get angrier and angrier until he just starts like shouting and being like “WHY IS IT LIKE THIS MAN I HAD A LIFE AND THEN I JUST TURNED INTO THIS” and then the “yet you still fight on” being kinda like Gold realizing BF/The Player is determined to keep fighting despite him telling him stuff is pointless, so he essentially says “it’s too late for me, but you still have a chance, if you go down, do not go down giving up.” this is a FNF mod and yet i have this sudden burst of motivation
2:03 "The origins of life and death As natural as the sun and moon Sword and shield rust in the Lethe As violet bathes in scarlet strewn" _EDIT: (I am once again humbled by Juno's superior wordplay.)_
Aforementioned Superior Wordplay: Champions Crossed Off,Split in Twain The Sun and Moon will Dim and Wane Oh,Swords and Shields will rust Away All Legends will be slain Scarlet blood and Violet Flesh (Starts at 3:25)
I like the use of the names of the games, like "in the visions of the "rubies", "sapphires" promising the light, even "brilliant diamonds", "shining pearls" will drain away to "black" and "white." and in the no more part, "champions "crossed off", "split in twain" the "sun" and "moon" will dim and wane, oh, "swords" and "shields" will rust away, all "legends" shall be slain, "scarlet" blood and "violet" flesh are all that remain of the valiant children doomed to hang in futures chains"
This just took the spot as the best Monochrome Perish Mix with lyrics video yet! The entire second half was breathtaking! Gold singing an octave higher than originally, all the new art in that second half, and especially the animation as it simmers back down before the grand finish! BEAUTIFUL!! 👏👏👏My hat is off to you, Juno! I can’t wait to see what you’ve got prepared for the future!
We went from a heroic song about facing the sins of your past and overcoming them for redemption, to a song about the inevitability of death and how it claims all no matter your legacy and how your legacy WILL be forgotten, in two weeks.... This a certified "Juno Songs" moment.
"There's nothing that lies at the end" "Those who mourn and honor you will join you *HAND IN HAND* "Friends and partners, Loved ones, foes all crumble one by one" "Waves of nil and sands of time, Erode them 'til it's done" Hits so hard
@@actionjaxtheultrasithlord3717 It's what's after those lines that matters: "And yet you fight on, knowing every trace of you will be gone. It's to late for me to rage against the dying light, but for stubborn ones like you, perhaps there's purpose in your fight. *There's story left to write, so go not silent in the night*"
Lemme one up you:”Champions crossed off, split in Twain! The sun and moon will dim and wane! Oh, swords and shields will rust away, and all legends shall be slain!”
I like to imagine Gold is making these mirages to warn BF about the few possible things that can happen to him once his time comes, and that makes it all the more eerie. You did great on this one, Juno!
That's what I think too! The unknown in each bad ending for the trainers make it apparent that these are illusions of what could have happened to the champions. While they enjoyed their fame, Gold/Ethan didn't get the chance to. That along with everyone forgetting about hi and his own legacy left him bitter. And because of that bitterness, he can't understand why BF would strive for greatness. This is why he sounds kinda angry at 3:48 and on. He knows that nothing matters once you're gone and everything you were will fade away through the sands of time.
And yet he is proud of him for not being fazed by the possibility of failure, almost like he is testing him Basically, even if you might die, keep playing Pokemon
1:52 at this moment he says "Erasing all you've done until the ash is gone" that is so perfect considering that ash's journey just ended not long ago so technically (metaphorically)ash is gone......
Holy Arceus! The art! Brendan melting alive and May drowning Dawn having her eardrums ruptured Hilda being crucified Calem and Serena being taken over by Xernias and Yveltal Elio and Selene decapitated and murdered by Beast Lusamine Victor and Gloria being impaled by the broken sword and shield Juliana being eating by a demonic Koridon It’s so dark and morbid, especially considering they were all kids, not even teenagers, brutally slaughtered on a journey to be known, only to be forgotten and puppeteered by the things that you fought to protect. Juno, you went off on this song, and it’s art! Thank you for traumatizing another generation of future trainers!
I just recently noticed several cool things about the end section starting at 3:49!!!! 1. The Unown in the background are spelling out the names of the different protagonists 2. Ethan's name is last, which means that his name had to have a replacement when the Johto protagonists' names were spelled. This was done by making the two Johto names Kris from Crystal and Lyra from the remakes 3. The Unown in Gold's eyes spell out GS, like the GS Ball used to catch Celebi It's small details like these that show just how much effort the QUEEN Juno puts into these covers, and it makes me love this one all the more!!!!
The No More segment is absolute fire, the lyrics and references to the other Pokemon games are brilliant, and damn, those drawings of the fate of the other protagonist are also so damn good.
I really loved the detail of other pokemon game protagonists meeting the relatively same fate as Gold, especially the irony of Gloria and Victor being killed with a sword and shield. However, it's interesting to note Red did not appear once. It appears even in death Gold cannot defeat him. Fantastic work as always Juno!
I loved the original and this is even better than that! It still carries the same warning message that he - or perhaps the unown - are trying to give of being forgotten despite your deeds. Yet the listener - and bf - don't back down. The rising emotions through it especially as his body is discarded, eventually just dying off as what little flame he had left to rage against fate give way to a quiet hope: maybe this stubborn kid will leave a legacy behind that will last. Also it's very catchy and has fantastic references
Ironic how this entire song is about how he’s forgotten, all his friends are forgotten, and nothing matters, yet this is easily the most memorable song
I love how the second part was performed. You can tell gold is becoming more and more unhinged, cultivating into when he snaps and the climax hits. Absolutely beautiful, the "*trainer name* IS NO MORE" detail is also incredible
It goes by really quickly, but here's a list of all the mentioned trainer names and words. 3:50 Red 3:51 Leaf 3:52 Kris 3:54 Lyra 3:55 Brendan & May 3:56 Dawn & Lucas 3:58 Hilda & Hilbert 3:59 Nate & Rosa 4:01 Calem 4:02 Serena 4:04 Selene 4:05 Elio 4:07 Victor & Gloria 4:08 Florian & Juliana 4:10 Ethan/Gold 4:11 No More
Might just be me, but the way that he delivers "There's nothing that lies at the end" is just perfect and the best delivered line in the song, because he sounds both angry and sad that it is true
Champions CROSSED OFF, SPLIT IN TWAIN The SUN and MOON will dim and wane Oh, SWORDS and SHIELDS will rust away All LEGENDS shall be slain SCARLET blood and VIOLET flesh Are all that remain Of the valiant children Doomed to hang in futures chains. -Gold 3:25
I have to say, for some reason the image of Hilda crucified is the one who freaks me out the most, like in most fan art and in the manga (from what I've heard) she's always cheering and happy so the image of her basically giving up hope is haunting
The koraidon eating the scarlet protagonist as the one of the quickest flashes was a nice touch at the end and all the death scenes where done super well and how it only references gens past golds death well done
3:24 I love that he starts angrily screaming the lyrics Edit: one thing I don’t get is the tone change at the end. Don’t get me wrong, it sounds amazing…but if you follow the events chronologically from that week it shows Snow on Mt Silver, which is how Ethan died, then it shows Bf running into Silver and his shiny feraligatr, which then presumably attacks him, and before monochrome it shows a wide shot of Ethan’s grave, undisturbed from how it was in the lost silver creepypasta. Meaning Bf didn’t break in to battle Ethan…he’s dead too and was put in that same grave. He’s sharing a similar fate to all the regional champions.
Okay Juno, you always goes hard when editing and making art for videos but like holy shit did you go full throttle here, usually I’m not that squeamish when it comes to gore/scary imagery but like everything here (especially during Ethan’s/Gold’s encore like WOW.) almost got me. this was an absolute blast to listen to!
3:23 Champions crossed off, split in twain (a reference to the Generation 6 games Pokémon X & Y) The sun and moon will dim and wane (Refers to the Generation 7 games Pokémon Sun & Moon as well as Pokémon Ultra Sun & Moon) Oh swords and shields will rust away (Pokémon Sword & Shield which are Generation 8 games being referred to these lyrics) All legends shall be slain (A reference to the open-world Sinnoh reboot Pokémon Legends Arceus) Scarlet blood and violet flesh (Reference to the Generation 9 games, the recent Pokémon Scarlet & Violet) I don’t know if that was intentional,but these tidbits were beyond amazing
I love the ending, it gives the feeling that Gold knows he can't do anything, but he's telling the player "Go, don't end up like me, don't let your story fade." It's amazing!
I’m a bit late, but 3:25 - 4:01 slaps harder than any other FNF song with lyrics I’ve heard. I love the growls on lines like ‘lies at the end’ and ‘crumble one-by-one’, it really adds to the feeling of torment and unbridled rage that the Perish Mix has. Excellent work, Juno! Love all your stuff, dude! :] (Also may or may not be working on a cover of this so hehe)
Holy fuck this is so fucking cool!! Not only is the original part so fresh and funky with the improved vocals, but the No More section is absolutely fantastic! Your vocals are amazing, especially around the end with such power and emotion in every word. Another perfect lyric video as always Juno ✨☺️✨
Juno. this is the greatest fnf lyric cover of all time. from the artwork to the overall sound of your voice. just keep up the amazing work you provide.
(Been waiting to update these for a long time now) Lyrics: So you've risen up to glory. So you say you've etched your story. So you think you need not worry. That its end will end up gory. Your achievements, all your foes defeating Fade to dust within a moment fleeting Won't know when death's reaping 'Til that fateful meeting I'm Dead! I have been long dead The one who climbed the apex of two regions Stained with Red You who battled gods and demons Clawing for the Gold alone Will someday soon face down your doom Your life will fade to Monochrome You could be there Gazing down from up on high Time marches on; You will someday fall forgotten from the sky All men die Hear the clock run down From the count of three Its song before you perish Fear its melody The way of fate claims all who walk upon this world Conquered legends, faced two champions Saved the world from rising shadows What was the reward for blood and sweat shed by those R̷̙̦̖̥͉̯̐e̵̩͎̳͌̄̀̈́͂̚à̷̫́͂̈́͜c̵̡͕̙̘̫͎͌̈́̐̅̈́h̴͎͍̰̐̉̍̆͌̋ǐ̷̩̠̘̭͠ņ̴̢̚g̷̼̺̅́̋͘͠ ̴̙͉̖̲̪̓͂͜t̴̙̼̰͓̺̲̐̏̏͐̍͠o̵̢̜̼̱̊̍͒͗͂ ̸̨̭̊̒̓̈́͠g̴͎̤̼͓̙̒̓̆̍͠o̸̱̪̖̎̓̿̎̏͋ḑ̷̢̯̹̩̻́̓̎͌ Just one moment Gone so fast, it lingers Heroes fall, rent down to shreds and swallowed by a dark oblivion's maw Winds of change blow ever on Erasing all you've done until the ash is gone And future generations will forget the deeds Y̷̛͈̭͉̜̦͒̍̄̈́̆͋̒͠͠ơ̴̱͖̖̺̟̫̭̦͕̄̉͊́̇͆́͜͠͠ų̴͍̤̫͇͕͎̟̗͓̔͋'̴̧̨̧̛̬̼͉͓͔̈́͛̃̊̈͊̈͌́̔̿͆̊́v̶̱̬̝̺̺̑̈́̓̓̔̇̈̓̄͊ͅͅe̶͕̜̯͚͕̺͈̘͎͍͗̊̽̎̋̅͐̆̈́̔́͘͝͠ͅ ̶̛̼̩̙͓̙̪̙͍̿̀̑̋̃͆̆͆͆̉̌͂̌ͅD̶̺̻̩͋̏̊̉̆̑̏͗̉̇͘͠ơ̴̹̺̤̙̫̟̰͈̟̑̈̈̓̀͐̄͌̃̐̋̚͝ͅn̸̝͍̈́̋́́͒͗̆̍̇͆e̴̡̢̖̠̠̥̳̳̦̝͋͒̔̕͘͠͝ In the visions of the "rubies", "sapphires", promising the light Even "brilliant diamonds", "shining pearls" will drain away to "black-and-white" So you think your story's different. So you hear, but will not listen. Know that when your life has fizzled All that's "gold" no longer glistens Your achievements, all the songs you're singing Drowned by funerary knells a-ringing As the dust to which you're clinging Crumbles, thinning No more... What can we do when our lives, fade? Legacies beyond our control As wheels of time bring our decay Foolish pride begat our fall Bearers of torches, that long burned away. No trace at all Histories hung by the strings of a present that defies the lessons of the past Those passed. They say "be remembered" Memories all twist and shatter They wont recognise who you were, what matters never lasts EVERYTHING WILL BE FORGOTTEN! Champions crossed off, split in twain The "sun" and "moon" will dim and wane Oh, "swords" and "shields" will rust away All "legends" shall be slain "Scarlet" blood and "violet" flesh Are all that remain of the valiant children Doomed to hang in future's chains All stories twist, An illusion of heroes in vain! There's nothing that lies at the end. Those who mourn and honor you; will join you hand-in-hand Friends and partners, Loved ones, foes, All crumble one-by-one Waves of nil and sands of time, Erode them 'til it's done. And yet you fight on, knowing every trace of you. Will be gone? It's too late for me To rage against the dying light But for stubborn ones like you, Perhaps there's purpose in your fight... There's story left to write, So go not silent in the night!
The sheer emotion that is brought to the table is only something I could hope to achieve in a lyrical adaptation. Simply well done, well deserving sequel to your most popular video.
Im a bit late, but it was thanks to this song that I realised just how incredibly lucky the protagonists are in their games. One thing wrong, and most of them could have ended like you portraited. Really makes you think of Pokemon adventures being worth it or not.
Yeah but I'm crazy, and I think a long, painful, important death is preferable to a short, painless, worthless one Now gimmie my Raichu Pokemon I'M WAITING FOR THIS GAME TO BE REAL AAAAAAAA
Dang, this hits just as hard as the original, as someone who fears death too much I always felt like the original expressed my worries, so the line at 3:49 hitting basically what I feel really drives this home and it's great.
This is just so goddamn good, I especially loved the moments the titles of each generation were mentioned, they just sounded so fucking good. Also, I love the fact that in the jumpscare where Dawn is dying it shows Hells bell, thats a clever little Death Toll reference
Man, you really made me believe I was litsening to someone who has died and has seen his legacy being forgotteen, other Legends being borned and then see those Legends get forgotteen. This song hits hard, man. Also I would also likes to comment that Hilda being crucified is a reference to the manga. And... does anyone know who the person in 4:09 is?
The final stretch of Monochrome was always epic but the way Juno sings with his entire soul amplified this feeling. The art makes this even more intense with them all suffering
Listening to this again after the Frostbite with Lyrics cover makes it just a tad more interesting than it already was. Extremely nice, I love these covers!
This was the song that introduced me to your channel, so I'm very excited to see how the remaster will be! also, the og cover CURSED ME and i could no longer hear the song without your lyrics because they matched the beeps and bops *TOO WELL*
That new part with sun and moon, sword and shield, and all the other games had such a clever play on all the titles. I’d say I was impressed with how well they were incorporated them but knowing Juno he always does a fantastic job
is the art of the other kids all references to other pokepastas and/or "bad endings"? because i recognized a few of them! either way, what a PHENOMINAL way to continue the narrative you originally told through the lyrics. one again you've left me jaw-dropped
3:31 SCARLET BLOOD AND VIOLET FLESH ARE ALL THAT REMAIN OOOFFF THE VALIANT CHILDREN DOOMED TO HANG IN FUTURE'S CHAINS! This goes so damn hard! Absolutely epic from beginning to end! capitalism
*CHAMPIONS CROSSED OFF SPLIT IN TWANE THE SUN AND MOON WILL DIM AND WANE SWORDS AND SHIELDS WILL RUST AWAY THE HISTORIES HUNG BY THE STRINGS ALL LEGENDS SHALL BE SLAIN SCARLET BLOOD AND VIOLET FLESH ARE ALL THAT REMAINS OF THE VALIANT CHILDREN DOOMED TO HOLD IN THE FUTURES CHAINS*
LOVED this version! The art was PHENOMENAL and disturbing, and the lyrics were very well-written! Well done, Juno! I looked through every trainer’s jumpscare art, and now I’m gonna cry! Those poor kids :(
@@thesalvager3020, do you know in Black and White manga, Ghetsis had 8 gym leaders crucified as a testament to his appalling power? (Those gym leaders managed to escape in the end.) Now Hilda shares the same fate.
WAIT HOW DID I JUST NOTICE??????? The unknowns in the background during the "children doomed to hang in futures chains" part spell out all the kids names. Nice detail, man.
N O M O R E . Once again, a killer performance, Gold has always been an interesting character in the mod to me. But unfortunately not much else about him or his condition (aside from the original creepypasta) are looked into. This is a good example of that. I especially love the small visual references to the other songs in the mod. Almost as if Gold and the Unown are haunting the whole thing, it's oddly fitting given the popularity of Gold's design and song. Well done Juno. Please, continue to go not silent in the night.
I think i know the context to all of this: Blue tears creepypasta happens (gary's raticate got killed, he went up to MT silver to murder red.) Gold faces red but he's freezing. Lost silver
I was initially pretty underwhelmed by the reduction of the voice effects from the original, it was really what in my eyes had made the hollow and arid delivery pop, giving it that dramatic feeling, but the line delivery in the finale here really made up for it greatly and put a new spin on everything! On repeat listens with my expectations in check, it's wonderful! All in all a great cover, very satisfying! Love all the art too!
I am amazed by your ability to turn beeps and boops into lyrics that make the song better than before! You are truly a master of your work! (Also the Koraidon art during that last part is awesome!)
What’s most disturbing is that everything gold says is true, time will eventually erode everything away until existence itself disappears, but that should be what pushes us to achieve what we want in our lives, knowing we ultimately have one massive opportunity to find the closest thing to a happy ending, but many like gold gaze upon such truth with sheer despair knowing no matter what they do it matters not in the end
The images flashing of trainers being contorted not only elevates the already-present horror distributed in Monochrome already, but highlights the message of Lost Silver itself. Death waits for no one. No matter how far you may run from it, it will always catch you. They did not heed Gold's message. They did not live their lives to the fullest, always one thing unsatisfactory to them. However, in passing his lesson on to boyfriend, he hopes that BF won't make their mistake and will spend his life to its fullest extent.
@@gengargamer5657 my apologies. I was calling this character Gold because that is what I believed he was called. If his canonical name is Ethan, then I am sorry for misconceiving it.
gold just warns bf that he will be forgotten too one day and since bf is so determent atleast to go out with an bang that lasts an memory for an long time

Thanks, I could only really understand the crucifix and hellbell
Thanks, I was wondering about those.
So basically, each trainer faced the bad ending of their respective games?
@@CCaster2000 in essence, yes
Love the theories, but I think Ethan died from the cold in mount silver, explaining the empty eye sockets (and the missing limbs might have been cause by wild pokemons eating his corspe

The anger in Gold's voice during the No More part will never cease to amaze me. He's basically saying how life is hopeless no matter how much we weave it, and at the end were he realizes that BF knows that his fate is written he still fights and he admires that and tells BF to basically dream on, I love it!
another banger w/ lyrics from Juno
honestly justified kid did everything he could saved the word and everything only to die a likely brutal death and not even be able to move on being trapped in a black void cursed with the knowledge that those before him and those who will come after him all share the same fate and nothing can be done to sop it and ontop of all that hes still "alive" while the unown live inside his body puppeteering his every movement even forcibly ripping off his head and spin and replacing his empty eyes with themselves. kid did nothing wrong yet hes subjected to agony AND suffers cursed knowledge that's beyond his control
I might have come close to death many times but I believe my soul shall live on.

I low-key love it that (my interpretation of the ending) Ethan is basically saying "Oi, mate, grab fate by the balls and become known while you still got the chance to."
Nah, he isnt talking about fame. Just not to give up and die like he did
@@ethan.dies18well your name already fits the song at least.
I adore the passion during the No More part. He sounds like he goes from detached "Such is life" to an angry "But why is it life?"
Good work Juno
I like to think that No More is gold's last gasp of life, bleeding through his Unown puppeteers, seeing as, as you said, there's true passion there. He's not calmly singing, he's violently screaming.
And that ending.
Those last 4 bars
Are the most powerful in the entire song.

Well there is just not the same mod there's lost gold but yeah monochrome is god tier in hypnos lullaby mod
4:00 This verse is one of the best I've heard from a with lyrics video, it sounds so elegant and really portrays Golds epiphany that not everyone is doomed to fail
The part at 3:25 actually makes my skin crawl away and hide, the way it is performed is flawless and is definitely the best part.
Dude it’s sick
And I love the detail all the mail and female avatars are dying
My favorite part by far
"Champion CROSSED OFF, SPLIT IN TWAIN"
"The SUN and MOON dim and wane"
"The SWORDS and SHIELDS will rust away"
"All LEGENDS shall be slain"
"SCARLET Blood and VIOLET Flesh are all that remain..."
Yes
I like that Juno expresses that 2:34 is the only line we get out of Gold in this whole video through the absolute agony in which "NO MORE" comes out which strikingly contrasts the pretty monotone inflection heard prior, and the similar tone it precedes.
It really hammers in to me that Monochrome is a battle against The Unown, and has nothing to do with Gold. His only contribution to the song is to desperately beg for its end before being twisted and mangled even further beyond repair, just to be piloted by his puppeteers even more. Another amazing project from Juno, makes me re-appreciate this incredible song all over again 👏
I think we also hear the real gold say "I'm dead" at the beginning
@@Sahnt11vd6f
To me (and I might be insane but) he sounds really constipated
The song is literally about Gold achieving more than any other Pokémon protagonist and him dying and being forgotten overtime why would the unowns sing about that
@@pimpjackson7494 The unowns are the one making him sing canonically in the mod Gold is literally wanting to die throughout the whole thing
Idk why but I love that it sounds like Gold is snarling "valiant children" to me he just sounds so angry that, yeah they were children sent on quests to save the world from impossible odds
Maybe it’s not intentional, but red not being shown fading to monochrome might be a reference to how the Pokémon company will keep rebooting gen one

Fun facts about the song:
As gold is listing all the games in the series in the song, pokemon gold is the only one out of order.
Juliana's "bad ending" artwork is the only one displayed just once, everyone elses is shown at least twice.
Dawn's "bad ending" artwork references another song in the hypno's lullaby mod, death toll, the only artwork to do so.
Juliana and Serena are the only ones not wearing their signature head accessories.
If you look closely during 3:49, you can see every protagonist's names in unown
And that's all the facts I got
Only red serena and hilda were ones i could read
I found leaf and red

And finally...
ETHAN (GOLD)
In 'im dead' phase Gold is telling us the fate of all other trainers from the games telling their tragic legacy. The fact this doesn't discourage BF surprises Gold and brings him hope that not all champions end in tragedy.
*Ethan
No he's right in a sense
The context is probably that BF is now just like any pokemon protag. Iconic outfit,legendary battles,etc. The other protags are already dead to gold,and he is ready to claim another,but is convinced otherwise
@@ElizeniasFunkinArtNVA what about red we never saw what happened to him, also aren’t you basically saying that gold/Ethan made the hell bell kill dawn?
@@Thereturnofmarcus when he faced Red,he was alive and a pokemon champion though,he didnt kill Leaf either,so i guess he left the ones before him alive. As for Dawn,maybe Ethan and the Unown just sent her there as a way to kill em,all the protags are killed and tortured very differently,some crucified and some turned into literal skeletons but im not too sure about Dawn
My jaw dropped as Gold started naming Gens 6-9, and it proceeded to make like a Mega Glalie and snap off in awe when the gorey protags appeared aswell. Your Monochrome with Lyrics has already branded itself in my mind, and I say with no hyperbole that this is such an incredible extension.

Moon and sun were killed by lusamine Nihelgo fusion you can see the hands and it specifically colored black with also the eyes things on it
Elio and Selene are being torn to shreds by Beast Lusamine
*Hilbert, Lucas, Akira, Rei, and Juliana laughing in the background
What one do you think is the darkest? I’d go with Calem’s as he’s very much still alive. Xerneas is the pokemon of life so those antlers probably will never kill him.
As soon as I saw may drowning I instantly thought of the hoenn mix of monochrome “ingrained”. Though I doubt it’s a reference to it
I hope it has more game references. Y’know, like “brilliant diamonds, shining pearls will fade away to black and white”
well it did, so you got your wish
Well, I've got good news for ya.
does he know?
Actually called it lmao
Solid prediction
Okay the “PERISH mix” part of this is unironically so good.
I love how you can sort of feel his voice get angrier and angrier until he just starts like shouting and being like “WHY IS IT LIKE THIS MAN I HAD A LIFE AND THEN I JUST TURNED INTO THIS” and then the “yet you still fight on” being kinda like Gold realizing BF/The Player is determined to keep fighting despite him telling him stuff is pointless, so he essentially says “it’s too late for me, but you still have a chance, if you go down, do not go down giving up.”
this is a FNF mod and yet i have this sudden burst of motivation

Edit: lavender town theme in the background
all thats gold no longer glistens
I like to imagine Gold is making these mirages to warn BF about the few possible things that can happen to him once his time comes, and that makes it all the more eerie. You did great on this one, Juno!
That's what I think too! The unknown in each bad ending for the trainers make it apparent that these are illusions of what could have happened to the champions. While they enjoyed their fame, Gold/Ethan didn't get the chance to. That along with everyone forgetting about hi and his own legacy left him bitter.
And because of that bitterness, he can't understand why BF would strive for greatness. This is why he sounds kinda angry at 3:48 and on. He knows that nothing matters once you're gone and everything you were will fade away through the sands of time.
And yet he is proud of him for not being fazed by the possibility of failure, almost like he is testing him
Basically, even if you might die, keep playing Pokemon
1:52 at this moment he says "Erasing all you've done until the ash is gone" that is so perfect considering that ash's journey just ended not long ago so technically (metaphorically)ash is gone......

😮 oh my! That’s dark!
I love the creativity behind it
The gym leaders were crucified in the manga, so Hilda being crucified makes sense
I just recently noticed several cool things about the end section starting at 3:49!!!!
1. The Unown in the background are spelling out the names of the different protagonists
2. Ethan's name is last, which means that his name had to have a replacement when the Johto protagonists' names were spelled. This was done by making the two Johto names Kris from Crystal and Lyra from the remakes
3. The Unown in Gold's eyes spell out GS, like the GS Ball used to catch Celebi
It's small details like these that show just how much effort the QUEEN Juno puts into these covers, and it makes me love this one all the more!!!!
The No More segment is absolute fire, the lyrics and references to the other Pokemon games are brilliant, and damn, those drawings of the fate of the other protagonist are also so damn good.

Today was my brother's 18th birthday and he's loved the mount silver creepypasta, safe to say he lived hearing this cover, thank you Juno.
I loved the original and this is even better than that! It still carries the same warning message that he - or perhaps the unown - are trying to give of being forgotten despite your deeds. Yet the listener - and bf - don't back down. The rising emotions through it especially as his body is discarded, eventually just dying off as what little flame he had left to rage against fate give way to a quiet hope: maybe this stubborn kid will leave a legacy behind that will last.
Also it's very catchy and has fantastic references
Ironic how this entire song is about how he’s forgotten, all his friends are forgotten, and nothing matters, yet this is easily the most memorable song
I love how the second part was performed. You can tell gold is becoming more and more unhinged, cultivating into when he snaps and the climax hits. Absolutely beautiful, the "*trainer name* IS NO MORE" detail is also incredible

Might just be me, but the way that he delivers "There's nothing that lies at the end" is just perfect and the best delivered line in the song, because he sounds both angry and sad that it is true

I have to say, for some reason the image of Hilda crucified is the one who freaks me out the most, like in most fan art and in the manga (from what I've heard) she's always cheering and happy so the image of her basically giving up hope is haunting
That's what makes the images so powerful, in my opinion atleast

3:24 I love that he starts angrily screaming the lyrics
Edit: one thing I don’t get is the tone change at the end. Don’t get me wrong, it sounds amazing…but if you follow the events chronologically from that week it shows Snow on Mt Silver, which is how Ethan died, then it shows Bf running into Silver and his shiny feraligatr, which then presumably attacks him, and before monochrome it shows a wide shot of Ethan’s grave, undisturbed from how it was in the lost silver creepypasta. Meaning Bf didn’t break in to battle Ethan…he’s dead too and was put in that same grave. He’s sharing a similar fate to all the regional champions.
I can't wait for this, Monochrome is probably my favourite video you've done so I can't wait for Monochrome 2
This is the best song.

Okay Juno, you always goes hard when editing and making art for videos but like holy shit did you go full throttle here, usually I’m not that squeamish when it comes to gore/scary imagery but like everything here (especially during Ethan’s/Gold’s encore like WOW.) almost got me. this was an absolute blast to listen to!

I love the ending, it gives the feeling that Gold knows he can't do anything, but he's telling the player "Go, don't end up like me, don't let your story fade." It's amazing!
I’m a bit late, but 3:25 - 4:01 slaps harder than any other FNF song with lyrics I’ve heard. I love the growls on lines like ‘lies at the end’ and ‘crumble one-by-one’, it really adds to the feeling of torment and unbridled rage that the Perish Mix has.

So you've risen up to glory.
So you say you've etched your story.
So you think you need not worry.
That its end will end up gory.
Your achievements,
all your foes defeating
Fade to dust within a moment fleeting
Won't know when death's reaping
'Til that fateful meeting
I'm Dead!
I have been long dead
The one who climbed the apex of two regions
Stained with Red
You who battled gods and demons
Clawing for the Gold alone
Will someday soon face down your doom
Your life will fade to Monochrome
You could be there
Gazing down from up on high
Time marches on;
You will someday fall forgotten from the sky
All men die
Hear the clock run down
From the count of three
Its song before you perish
Fear its melody
The way of fate claims all who walk upon this world
Conquered legends,
faced two champions
Saved the world from
rising shadows
What was the reward for blood and sweat shed by those

will drain away to "black-and-white"
So you think your story's different.
So you hear, but will not listen.
Know that when your life has fizzled
All that's "gold" no longer glistens
Your achievements, all the
songs you're singing
Drowned by funerary
knells a-ringing
As the dust to which you're clinging
Crumbles, thinning
No more...
What can we do when our lives, fade?
Legacies beyond our control
As wheels of time bring our decay
Foolish pride begat our fall
Bearers of torches, that long burned away.
No trace at all
Histories hung by the strings of a present
that defies the lessons of the past
Those passed.
They say "be remembered"
Memories all twist and shatter
They wont recognise who you were, what matters never lasts
EVERYTHING WILL BE FORGOTTEN!
Champions crossed off, split in twain
The "sun" and "moon" will dim and wane
Oh, "swords" and "shields" will rust away
All "legends" shall be slain
"Scarlet" blood and "violet" flesh
Are all that remain of the valiant children
Doomed to hang in future's chains
All stories twist, An illusion of heroes in vain!
There's nothing that lies at the end.
Those who mourn and honor you; will join you hand-in-hand
Friends and partners, Loved ones, foes, All crumble one-by-one
Waves of nil and sands of time, Erode them 'til it's done.
And yet you fight on, knowing every trace of you.
Will be gone?
It's too late for me
To rage against the dying light
But for stubborn ones like you, Perhaps there's purpose in your fight...
There's story left to write, So go not silent in the night!
Thanks 🗿🍷
dude.
that must of taken for ever! Good Job!
Not very important, but "Those that honor you" should be "Those who honor you."
POCKET GO REFFERENCE LAST LINE?!?!
How long this comment take
The sheer emotion that is brought to the table is only something I could hope to achieve in a lyrical adaptation. Simply well done, well deserving sequel to your most popular video.
Im a bit late, but it was thanks to this song that I realised just how incredibly lucky the protagonists are in their games.
One thing wrong, and most of them could have ended like you portraited.
Really makes you think of Pokemon adventures being worth it or not.
Yeah but I'm crazy, and I think a long, painful, important death is preferable to a short, painless, worthless one
Now gimmie my Raichu Pokemon I'M WAITING FOR THIS GAME TO BE REAL AAAAAAAA
@@AdrieneTheDarkestHorse i don't know what the f you're on, but i see raichu, so i like
@@zx_studios968 raichu is amazing
Also I'm on POKEMON GAMES AHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA
3:26 this point where the games are brought into the lyrics and golds voice gets higher pitch is my favorite part of the video
Dang, this hits just as hard as the original, as someone who fears death too much I always felt like the original expressed my worries, so the line at 3:49 hitting basically what I feel really drives this home and it's great.
OH man that does hit hard
This is just so goddamn good, I especially loved the moments the titles of each generation were mentioned, they just sounded so fucking good. Also, I love the fact that in the jumpscare where Dawn is dying it shows Hells bell, thats a clever little Death Toll reference
Man, you really made me believe I was litsening to someone who has died and has seen his legacy being forgotteen, other Legends being borned and then see those Legends get forgotteen. This song hits hard, man.
Also I would also likes to comment that Hilda being crucified is a reference to the manga. And... does anyone know who the person in 4:09 is?
4:09 is koraidon (pokemon) and juliana (trainer)
@@azukatieactually I'm pretty sure it's Florian, not Juliana
@@badpokemonplayer3380no it’s Juliana because of her hair style
@@laurahogan6086 it's Juliana getting mauled the Gaurdian Of Paradise Koraidon.
The final stretch of Monochrome was always epic but the way Juno sings with his entire soul amplified this feeling. The art makes this even more intense with them all suffering
Listening to this again after the Frostbite with Lyrics cover makes it just a tad more interesting than it already was. Extremely nice, I love these covers!
This was the song that introduced me to your channel, so I'm very excited to see how the remaster will be!
also, the og cover CURSED ME and i could no longer hear the song without your lyrics because they matched the beeps and bops *TOO WELL*
Same here
did you REALLY just say curse in the comments of a video about a pokémon creepypasta without expecting someone to mention lavender town?!
*Juno used Curse!*
*It was super effective!*
the segment after 3:49 is perfect in a way I cannot describe in any language no matter how expertly I can use them
TRUE
There truly is nothing that lies at the end
@@SBSanik3232Those who mourned and honored you will truly join you hand in hand
My favorite part :)
i love how the ending of "no more" is just dylan thomas's poem "do not go gentle into that good night." 10/10
That new part with sun and moon, sword and shield, and all the other games had such a clever play on all the titles. I’d say I was impressed with how well they were incorporated them but knowing Juno he always does a fantastic job
is the art of the other kids all references to other pokepastas and/or "bad endings"? because i recognized a few of them! either way, what a PHENOMINAL way to continue the narrative you originally told through the lyrics. one again you've left me jaw-dropped
4:09
Koraidon got a little tired of sandwiches
3:31 SCARLET BLOOD AND VIOLET FLESH ARE ALL THAT REMAIN OOOFFF THE VALIANT CHILDREN DOOMED TO HANG IN FUTURE'S CHAINS!
This goes so damn hard! Absolutely epic from beginning to end!

LOVED this version! The art was PHENOMENAL and disturbing, and the lyrics were very well-written! Well done, Juno! I looked through every trainer’s jumpscare art, and now I’m gonna cry! Those poor kids :(
Trainers who fell or alternate universes are quite disturbing like how koridon has the head of a previous trainer or Hilda crucified by plasma
@@waddledeecrasher6396 Yeah, question: why the hell DID Hilda get crucified?
@@thesalvager3020, do you know in Black and White manga, Ghetsis had 8 gym leaders crucified as a testament to his appalling power? (Those gym leaders managed to escape in the end.) Now Hilda shares the same fate.
@@nothingbutpain863 I thought he did it as a joke
@@nothingbutpain863 HOW DID THEY SURVIVE THAT.
ALSO WHO IS WRITING THIS MANGA I WANT TO BE PART OF THEIR TEAM.
WAIT HOW DID I JUST NOTICE??????? The unknowns in the background during the "children doomed to hang in futures chains" part spell out all the kids names. Nice detail, man.
N O M O R E .
Once again, a killer performance, Gold has always been an interesting character in the mod to me. But unfortunately not much else about him or his condition (aside from the original creepypasta) are looked into. This is a good example of that. I especially love the small visual references to the other songs in the mod. Almost as if Gold and the Unown are haunting the whole thing, it's oddly fitting given the popularity of Gold's design and song. Well done Juno. Please, continue to go not silent in the night.

@@gengargamer5657 The mod calls him Gold, so you don't need to correct everyone.
I think i know the context to all of this:
Blue tears creepypasta happens (gary's raticate got killed, he went up to MT silver to murder red.)
Gold faces red but he's freezing.
Lost silver
@@dylanzlol7293 *Ethan faces Red
Can we talk about how good the art is in the jumpscares?
It's absolutely fantastic.
3:24 this is my favorite part. It goes hard and it references all the Pokémon games well, not all of them
That's my favorite part as well
Legends never die... So does views.
Well, we all know who dies here, right?
It's obviously MY MOM- (hehe, Muscle Man funni!)

I always thought it would be cool if you also did monochrome second part, I am happy this will happen ! (:
Monochrome like Monokuma
It would be so awesome
The beginning made me think this would be mid, but the last part came by, and I quickly changed my opinion.
I was initially pretty underwhelmed by the reduction of the voice effects from the original, it was really what in my eyes had made the hollow and arid delivery pop, giving it that dramatic feeling, but the line delivery in the finale here really made up for it greatly and put a new spin on everything! On repeat listens with my expectations in check, it's wonderful! All in all a great cover, very satisfying! Love all the art too!
I am amazed by your ability to turn beeps and boops into lyrics that make the song better than before! You are truly a master of your work!
(Also the Koraidon art during that last part is awesome!)
What’s most disturbing is that everything gold says is true, time will eventually erode everything away until existence itself disappears, but that should be what pushes us to achieve what we want in our lives, knowing we ultimately have one massive opportunity to find the closest thing to a happy ending, but many like gold gaze upon such truth with sheer despair knowing no matter what they do it matters not in the end
The images flashing of trainers being contorted not only elevates the already-present horror distributed in Monochrome already, but highlights the message of Lost Silver itself.
Death waits for no one. No matter how far you may run from it, it will always catch you. They did not heed Gold's message. They did not live their lives to the fullest, always one thing unsatisfactory to them. However, in passing his lesson on to boyfriend, he hopes that BF won't make their mistake and will spend his life to its fullest extent.

@@gengargamer5657 my apologies. I was calling this character Gold because that is what I believed he was called. If his canonical name is Ethan, then I am sorry for misconceiving it.

I loved how you managed to sneak references into the original and now you’ve done it again ya sneaky deek
This was amazing!
gold just warns bf that he will be forgotten too one day and since bf is so determent atleast to go out with an bang that lasts an memory for an long time
