- Dear friend across the river
My hands are cold and bare
Dear friend across the river
I'll take what you can spare
I ask of you a penny
My fortune it will be
I ask you without envy
We raise no mighty towers
Our homes are built of stone
So come across the river
And find...

Yes.

My hands are cold and bare

My fortune it will be

Yeah
Absolutely, yes.
This song does so much in its brief runtime it's shocking.
1. Establishes the power dynamic between Piltover and Zaun through the lyrics
2. Establishes how entrenched that power dynamic is by making it a song a child would know
3. Enriches the culture of Zaun by showing that even their folk music can't ignore the power imbalance
4. Instantly communicates Powder and Vi's relationship
5. Provides emotional weight to the death of their mother because this is probably a song she sung to Powder as a lullaby
And it's NOT EVEN CORNY
Bingo. It's a child's nursery rhyme which suggests it's a very old song and that this has been going on for a long, long time.
Well Piltover is a couple of centuries old. This power imbalance has been going on for decades if not an entire century, or to put it another way for all their lives, the lives of their parents and grandparents.
She also hums the same song later when she kills Marcus indicating her plotline coming full circle but now she is the one in power, also orphaning a little girl (Marcus' daughter seems to be around the age Powder was when her mom was killed).
N°3 reminds me of the South Korean Arirang (Sorry if I write it wrong) which is now a very famous song in South Korea and which was created to criticize Japan's colonialism during WW2 and to give Korean people a feeling of hope during those tough times. This song is now part of their culture but the history of the country is well marked in this song. Even their folk music can't ignore their past and the sensitive geopolitical situation the country has faced.
it even stablishes that they're separated by a river, like it even gives the geographical description
“Dear friend across the river.
My hands are cold and bare.
Dear friend across the river.
I’ll take what you can spare.
I ask of you a penny.
My fortune it will be.
I ask you without envy.
We raise no mighty towers.
Our homes are built of stone.
So come across the river.
And find…”
I love this show 10/10.
This song alone tells what it's like growing up in the undercity from the perspective of a kid.
Best show I've seen all year.
“And find: the world below” is a pretty cool rendition I found
… DEEZ NUTS
and find the world below
Who sing the song??
This scene alone killed it.
A great start for any series
The amount of worldbuilding done in these few seconds. We see that Powder have been told to close her eyes and sing to avoid her being exposed to the horrors.
And the song is a begging song, telling us all we need to know of how desperate life on the "wrong" side of the river is.
Another thing I notice in this scene is that all of the scribbles that are appearing over the enforcers and the dead bodies disappear when Powder opens her eyes.
Little Powder was so adorable. Knowing nothing about LoL before watching this I really thought Jinx would be the hero
Yeah, watching her take a heel turn was as shocking as it was heartbreaking. I genuinely felt a real sense of loss over it, and I things to work out for her so much, and it's heartbreaking when nothing does.
Me too. I came in completely blind. To say that this show smacked me over the head with a skillet would be an understatement
I honestly think that knowing about League of Legends’ lore and characters is a detriment when watching Arcane. I more or less knew what Vi, Powder and some of the other characters *had* to end up as and it made the twists a lot less interesting.
@@MistyKathrine I mean did she really do a heel turn? Vi always talked about fighting the enforcers and taking the fight to Pilltover, exemption being when Vander talked to her on the bridge, which Powder was absent from, and well everything Powder did as Jinx was fighting Pilltover and following the orders of someone who she thought was doing what was best for Zoan. Echoes group pretty much protected Pilltover, so in essence they were apposed to Vi's early beliefs which she had instilled in Powder.
@@washada I knew the lore and for me I found it more interesting since I knew the endpoint so I wanted to see how they would do it and how the story telling would be.
No one gonna talk about how the girl has a really good singing voice for her age? Also it's reallllllly haunting
I believe that she was in the U.S. touring company for Matilda, playing the main character, at around the time this was recorded.
Her name is Isabella Abiera. She also plays Hazel from infinity train. Where she sings another song. I sobbed
@@Super_Scooter_Happyi knew she sounded familiar :( Hazel’s song is such a tear jerker
0:39 wish more people talked about how terrifyingly badass this scene is. The way the Enforcer slowly walks out of the smoke and mist shrowded in darkness, reloading is gun after having just now executed a revolutionary. Everything about it just sets the tone of the entire show perfectly, letting the viewer know that this show is NOT for kiddos.
terrorist not revolutionary.
People don’t talk enough about the cinematography
@@wei270 What's the difference, really? It's all a matter of perspective.
@@xavi.cat.4095 terrorist implies the use of terror as weapons, revolutionary don't need the existence of violence have a revolution. so there is a difference in this case. you can be a terrorist and revolutionary at the same time, or one at a time.
@@wei270 "revolutionary don't need the existence of violence have a revolution", every revolution has been violent, deny this is like deny 2+2 =4
I have rewatched the show 5 times and this is the only scene i always cry for 3 reasons. 1) Vi is really trying hard to not cry in front of her sister but when she found out her parents are dead she just cant hold it anymore. 2) Powder doesnt understand whats happening but as she saw her sister crying she started to cry aswell and tried to comfort her and my heart broke. 3) Vander reaction says it all. He feels so bad and regretted for rest of his life and decide to stop fighting and adopt the Orphans who lost their parents. So emotional
As for your second point I thought it was more that Vi asked her to close her eyes as to not witness the horrors, but when she inquires as to why Vi had stopped moving, she opens her eyes and sees the atrocious condition of the city and their people, and was subsequently moved to tears.
@@danyobosayo Its so tragic scene, I always cry when I see little Powder trying to comfort her sister
It is a powerful tragedy. Masterpieces such as this is pretty much what I live for, since I dont find many humane emotions in the real world.
I am getting old, I guess)
No kid should go through this
4. Powder’s innocence and how much she will change by the time this season ends.
She hums this on episode 7 on the bridge before fighting Ekko.
Yes! I noticed that too on my third rewatch!
I had to rewind it the first time to make sure I was hearing what I thought I was!
She *does???* Rewatching the show now and I will look out for that!
@@daughteroftiaran Oh yeah
How aren’t people noticing that? If you notice as well you can hear it playing in the theme when she meets vi again. During the big
When I started this show knowing nothing about it, I was like, oh, haha, creepy little girl singing over the sounds of horrific violence, TOTALLY not overdone or anything 🙄. But for some reason, I still could not look away from the screen for a single second.
And you know what? This song and this scene does SO MUCH to immerse us in the world of the series. Establishes the themes of police brutality, class inequality, and innocence lost. Establishes who Vi, Powder, and Vander are and WHY they are the way they are, having lost so much but terrified to lose what they have left. And arguably most importantly; establishes the relationship between the two girls, Vi having obviously told Powder to cover her eyes and sing to try to shield her from the horror, trying so hard not to break down in front of her little sister, Powder trusting Vi completely to guide them both across the bridge. All in one, what, two-minute scene?
Yeah I find it's not a creepy little singing but a comfort of a lullaby though a distressful scenario. It also a song "dear friend across the river." Piltover that is across from Zaun. A little help is ask in return for comfort as a form of thank you. A very big contrast to what happened on the bridge. After so many unanswered plea and many heavily armed enforcers that came instead, something let go.
I find that Arcane takes things that have become cliché, but recontexualizes them to make them feel fresh and original.
Another example of this is when Sevika, who is close to delivering the killing blow to Vi, tells her, "I'll give [Jinx] your regards." We've heard these words a million times, but coming from the mouth of Sevika, we genuinely believe them.
We've seen how honest Sevika is: she openly confronts Vander in front of everyone and tells him he looks weak (shortly before defecting to Silco's side).
In the factory, she, without hesitation, sacrifices herself to save Silco because she honestly believes he's the best hope for the Undercity.
And she tells Jinx the truth that Vi is still alive and running around with "some enforcer girl." Upon being accused of lying, she twists the knife further by bringing up *_the truth_* that not only was Jinx responsible for the death of her family members, but that her mental instability is a threat to "the cause." She does this because she believes that honesty is the best way to achieve independence for the Undercity.
One could imagine that, if Sevika succeeded in killing Vi, that she would not only tell Jinx, but show her proof, which (Sevika hopes) would drive Jinx into irreversible psychosis and lead Silco to remove her from the equation.
Her little voice is so kind and sweet. It's sad to see how she's changed
You know what? I've decided Jinx has a point. Terrorism against Piltover is funny.
It's not funny
It's revenge
Little we knew here that this series was becoming our favourite
I already had it planned, brother
Ikr
When i rewatched arcane i noticed that I when jinx came to the bridge after blowing up enforcers, she hummed this song. Such a cool detail. I also think these are the only two occasions that we see her on the bridge and in both instances she sang this song
i came into arcane with virtually no knowledge of the plot/setting and this scene blew me away, perfect opening that set up the setting and conflict so well
One of the absolute best introductions to a show.....give Amanda Overton the credit, she was the one suggest this scene was the FIRST scene.....and it WORKS so well, so haunting.
Yes! They were originally going to have the drowning of Silco be their cold opener. And I'm not sure, but she may have even written this scene from scratch. If that's true, it shows her understanding of the central themes and conflicts of the story.
Coming here as a guy who was always more leaning towards world of warcraft than league of legends, this is how it's done Blizzard. Watch and bloody learn!
This first scene blew my mind. It shows how dark and sad any world could be, including Runeterra, and how this show was NOT for the youngest. That's why I'm a fan of this show while I don't like animes so much, it's always too fantastic, too action-focused. Here we just hear a little girl singing to comfort herself and her sister while everything around is burning and every man is killing eachother, singing to reassure in a scene of horror during a violent revolution that turned into a bloodbath. This series is DARK, it's SAD, it tells about horror, misrespect, unequality, violence, anger, mistakes, perseverance, madness, sadness, revolution, conflict, the bad side of a human-being and all that can erupt from it. It's a serious series, not a cartoon one, and I loved the fact that it stays lovely with funny scenes and lines while being so dark, sad and emotionnal. This show is a real masterpiece.
Agreed! Couldn't have said it better myself. I absolutely love this show! It is perfection 🤩
And every single character in it is acting for at least some good reasons, yes, even the villain. Nobody is purely evil, everyone's trying to do what they think is best after their own lights.
Preach, this song encapsulates the problem between the power-wealthy divide of Piltover and Zaun, via the eyes and emotions of a little girl who lost her parents due to police brutality.
Fun fact: The girl singing for Baby Powder is Isabella Abiera, who also voiced Hazel on Infinity Train. It makes this scene all the more heartbreaking considering how similar Hazel and Powder are.
isnt she Mia Sinclair Jenness?
I cried and this series was just getting started. i love this series, i love the animation, the music. Simply everything ... a masterpiece.
My daughter was surprised that I was so deep in this series.
attack on titan blew me away too, I was addicted to it 🙈
from the diary of a mom who loves anime 🙈♥️⭐️👌🏼
❤️❤️❤️
i was curious so i pressed on the show but this scene sold it for me, the animation, the song, how heart wrenching it already was, i couldn’t take my eyes of it
OMG, when I first saw this scene...
Silence, totaly silent, no words for this beautiful, magnificent audio visual mastermpiece, only fealings, STRONG fealings, something that had never happened to me, I don't know, I really don't know why, but I understand why this scene produces and transmits to me the pain, the suffering and the environment that occurs, because that is exactly what is beautiful, that knows how to transmit it in a spectacular way. One of the best intros in a series I have ever seen, I think this scene deserves a full analysis but I have not find one in RUclips, but its... its... its just magnificent.
one of the hardest hitting scenes i've ever seen, sublime
...and you just know this is gonna be one to remember.
1:11 I adored arcane for using this technique of allowing us to see the characters from the person’s eyes. Like here were in the eyes of powder because we can see her blinking. Ugh! So stunning!
Still gives me telltales the walking dead final season vibes
true
After the Bridge of Khazad Dum, this is the most sad bridge crossing I've seen.
In Act 3 Jinx is the one killing the enforcers and humming the same song on the same bridge. What a great writing
From this perspective, it looks like Vi suffers from the same hallucinations because powder has her eyes closed.
I hate the parellels, I mean It's brillant, I love but the feeling i hate it, it's horrifying like in this scene Powder was innocent, pure yet being expose to horror and in the other one, She is now jinx humming the song, her innocence is all gone. it's all madness now, she is the horror in that scene and I hate the feeling when I watched it. It's just gut wrenching thingy but I love it... it was fucking brillant.
I had to watch this scene in small segments every, like, half hour because of how sad it is.
I do this melody on my violon it's so fucking beautifull
Record PLEAAASE; I WAS FIND IT
Sorry i don't have a mic to record the violon :(
@@arustabys9782 THEN BUY ONE PLSS
@@arustabys9782 DO IT OR I WILL STEAL YOUR COOKIES DURING CHRISTMAS
@@freetoplayplayer8693 No pls no !! You can take anything but not the cookies 😢
This was the moment I was hooked on the show, no joke.
Take some notes because thats how you open a good fucking show
This scene was heartbreaking you could see she didn't really understand what was going on and she looked up at her sister and saw her breaking down so she got sad too and hugged her literally heartbreaking
This song and scene from Arcane is beautiful and haunting .
I was watching a video about the game lore of Piltover and Zaun because I don't know anything about the game. In that they said that Zaun was an ancient port city and they were building some sort of canal over the river Pilt like our Suez canal for quicker travel. They overused explosives resulting in a great disaster which ended up sinking half the city and dividing it. Eventually the more affluent people(who probably had a hand in causing this disaster and wanting profit from the canal) moved to the higher landmass which gradually becomes Piltover
Oh thats really interesting but also tragic...
Sometimes i sing this in my head and I just have to go back to hear it, it’s obsessively good, just as much as this scene, best way to open up Arcane, I knew I was gonna be hooked since the first seconds of the pilot
this song makes me cry. i know theyre fictional but i can feel their pain.
I just finished it and i can't stop crying
I'm not crying your crying
Powder’s little voice makes my heart break..they were so young
This is probably the single best way you could possibly start a show like this. A masterclass in immediately engaging and investing the audience.
0:31 I loved ho jinx revenged the people of Zaun in episode 7
"revenged". They kinda started the war.. vander said it himself.
Avenged*
@@Andrew-px9fj I mean, trying to cross the bridge so you can have equal rights, rather than being shot for trying to leave the toxic slums...doesn't sound like 'starting it'
@@benjaminhartsock3281 i think you dont get that the bridges were free for anyone to cross.
@@Andrew-px9fj Then why does Vander say 'We tried to cross that bridge, once.'
Also: I like how you ignore the fact that people are forced to live in a toxic slum and are regularly hunted down by an opressive military-esque police force. Because, somehow 'Vander started it'
Jinx (Powder)
Ah my heart I love both of them sm
This is the best part of the series imo
I love this song.
And find...
What would we search for..
And there's ...
A corpse of our mother😭😭😭
Awe powder was singing
Got chills in last ep
I literally get chillllllls
babi jinx so smol :((
Plot twist: the undercity were the good guys
In episode 7 on the bridge scene
It was the same girl (to some extent)
Same song
Same bridge
But this time the roles were flipped and she was the one with the gun
Since Jinx is now an adult, imagine she'll be singing that when she's in the bridge.
I didn’t notice til watching the first episode again today that, their mother had purple hair.
As if to say that Powder/Jinx and Vi were born from her bravery to cross the bridge.
Can't remember when I started laughing.... All I remember is that I was crying.
The images of dead people was already disturbing, but when they showed baby Powder singing and covering her eyes to avoid seeing the horrors...... hooo boy! That's when I knew this show was not gonna be lighthearted. It's insane how in the span of 1 minute, they already let us know what kind of show we're getting ourselves into.
...ouch. my heart.
I was in the series the moment i heared this
I listen to the whole soundtrack from time to time and i start with this before continuing to "Playground"
...the world below
so come across the river,
and find the world below.
i wish i learnd how to make musik.
i would totaly make a banger out of this.
I'm on it don't worry 😋

The hardest part of learning how to play this song is not crying ;-;
This was sang by a friend of mine who I know in real life!!!
No way 🤭
@@samburger5178 Her name is Bella Abiera she is an amazing actor! Check her out!

Is there anywhere I can find this clear version without this explosion and something.or is anyway that can be edited or something

This is the non vocal version 👍
Kindred hums this song in one of her idle quotes.
I love it
i want a song with out explosion
This’ll sound weird. But this would work great for an intro for a World War 1 story.
Seraphine is going to sing this song on the bridge and calm the civil fight...
?????????????????????????????
While she might try doing something on the bridge perhaps on the anniversary of the massacre to commemorate those who died, it wouldn't be this song. From what I can tell it's pretty much the opposite of her goal, since it's highlighting the inequality between the cities. Hell we don't even know how it ends, it could have quite a dark twist in the final line.
@@FrostSylph If I had to guess, it rhymes with Stone. Since that seems to be the pattern in the song, perhaps something about bones?
Without thinking I sang this end: "And find..our place home."
@@ruffyal3710 disregarding the seraphine comment i was always wondering what the last lines are and thats actually damn perfect,,
She sounds kinda like the little girl singing the lullaby at the beginning of Crimson Peak
somebody knows more songs of this type? i love them
Somewhat reminds me of the Pan's labyrinth lullaby
