      @@fezchavez he'' saying that he is the act II. That would be my take. I didn't know that there isn't an act two, but after reading the comments what I realize (tho my intuition was dead on). The worst monster of the movie isn't the demon; David the man made machine is the greater monster.
      And YES. That would also make sense. He's entering his heaven (Valhalla), which is Act II. His second life etc etc..
      Good observation about him entering into Valhalla Act II that would be it. I would think..

    when i was young, my grandfather, who was a composer, took me in his lap and told me: when the world around you collapses, or something changes in such a way that you need support, then you come back to this composition and remember that god gave us music to support our souls.

      But in the end, David is just like his creator, Peter Weyland, man who he hates the most. Even though others believe it is wrong, David only goes forward jingoistic and twisted ambition and play the same music Weyland enjoyed. Also, he mistakes Ozymandias's poet as George Gordon Byron instead of Percy Bysshe Shelly, thus giving me an impression that his AI is malfunctioning. This shows David won't have good end. His name itself is spoiler:
      In bible, David was born shepherd (android) but due to his talent, he became successor of King Saul (Peter Weyland). However, David desired Bathsheba (Elizabeth Shaw) wife of Uriah (Charlie Holloway) and caused his death (in Prometheus through black liquid) and stole Bathsheba. This action angered God and David's later life became tragedy due to children he had with Bathsheba (neomorph, protomorphs, and etc.)

      Well, usually I dont like to give an answer, but you known? or maybe you dont, in some countries we dont have the luxury and the privilege to have an institut or a person who give us constantly this king of treasures-in culture and art-we find this beautys in show tvs and movies, the fact that we like it says something, right? In the third world, this is not a priority for ours politicians and leaderships, they only seeks mony and power. SOOOOO YES, WE LIKE IT BECAUSE OF THE MOVIES OR THE TV SHOWS. Its a beautiful music.

      Charles Voiriviere Hi ...
      White privilege (as you suggest) doesn't exist.
      One true privilege exists, it is money !
      In every countries of the World including third world, there is 1% to 5% of the population which is rich. They are the privileged, the first class.
      The second class, the workers, those who sell themselves for money everyday, us, the 99%.

    • @heinrichkreubel759

      What you feel and feel about Richard Wagner is because his music is both from his heart, his soul, and a "typically German thing". He's one of the really big guys who reflect the Nordic-German spirit. This Nordic-German spirit has nothing to do with monotheism like Christianity. It's a character of its own which reappears again and again in German. Richard Wagner is inspired by the spirit of Allfather Wotan. Which always comes to the fore and comes to fruition.

    Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
    And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
    Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
    Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
    The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
    And on the pedestal, these words appear:
    My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
    Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
    Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
    Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away.”

    Good evening.. My late father was fortunate enough to be a band master and my fondest memory of him was conducting this magnificent peice...I loved it's use in Alien but Wagner was masterful.

    I have to accept that I had never heard this before Alien Covenant, and what a shame that is, because this is perfection, it takes you to regions where you would might never been.

      In the Blu-Ray of Covenant, David alludes to his masterpiece being the Xenomorph Queen. I wouldn't worry, they're coming...
