"Laurence, you must absolutely NOT do the thing!"
Laurence: Does the thing.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
"Noooo don't do the thing for some reason"
"Pfft I'm gonna"
Willem: Fear it, Laurence!
Laurence: Yeah, How About No.
Willam: *KOS DAMN IT!*
NO! BAD DOG!
Also Laurence: HOW DID EVERYTHING GO SO WRO- oh right willem told me not to do this
"The road to Hell is paved with good intentions"
Laurence knows this one too well.
This song hits different when you know the story of Laurence
trueeee
or if you know latin well enough to understand it.
@@Null_Experismost tracks from From Software are gibberish and have little to no significance in the lyrics. I’d bet money Laurence’s track is no different
@@DrilleDeLesee it's true for other souls games but not bloodborne , a lot of songs in bloodborne are actually sang in latin and their lyrics mean something
@@DrilleDeLeseehow much are you willing to bet, lol?
It’s criminal bloodborne ost didn’t win OST of the Year. Criminal. Honestly.
Still can't wrap my head around it. Even after all these years
not everyone have a good taste in music man
Most people say Ludwig The Holy Blade or The First Hunter are the best tracks from Bloodborne's OST but honestly. I humbly disagree. This is a masterpiece.
Agreed! I love both of those tracks, but I loveee what they did with Laurence
Im right there with you!
Most people aren't wrong then😂
i agree 100% this is like the soul of Bloodborne
My favorite is Living Failures and I think I'm the only one😢
Bruh the chords in the last section with the choir are soooo expansive and romantic, sends shivers down my spine
"By the gods, fear it, Laurence."
Great theme and great character!
Always loved how his track conveys his ambition and grief all at once...to me at least.
Organs are like the coolest instrument ever, man… It’s like awe inspiring how powerful they are.
real!!!
@@emyoung it’s like they turn the churches and cathedrals and stuff they’re in into musical instruments, the BUILDING becomes like an instrument, it’s crazy…
Such an epic masterpiece! I would pay obscene amounts to watch a live orchestra play this!
Hearing a FromSoft orchestral experience would have me quietly crying in the venue.
Laurence isn't just a character, he IS Bloodborne. Probably the most important character of the game, without him the events of Bloodborne wouldn't have happened. He deserves huge respect, even more as a boss. The most difficult challenge of the game 👏🏻
Imo Laurence wasn't a challenge, but lorewise he is the most important boss, and it has some AMAZING composition
@@bottomtext7177 hard but definitely not the hardest that was probably either orphan obviously/ or gherman first play through
@@bottomtext7177 it was the hardest in my opinion at least, the orphan and others didn't last more than 2 or 3 tries the first time I played the game.
Maybe difficulty changes according to playing style
@@KNIGHTOFTHEGAMINGKING the orphan took me 2 or 3 tries 🤷🏻♂️
And Gherman didn't even last more than one try lol
Laurence took me more than 40 tries x'D
@@Shakhmatov_GAMES dang I didn’t have too bad of a time that being said I played all other souls games before bloodborne so I may have a bit of practice also I didn’t mean gherman I meant the first boss besides cleric beast I can never remember his name
Chills man 3.03. It's clearly a callback to the Cleric Beast theme, but it has such weight to it. For many players, Cleric Beast was their first boss, back when they were scared and confused. And for most Laurence was probably the last boss they returned to after defeating Orphan of Kos, now that they had conquered the rest that the game had to offer. In a way, the game ends where it began...
This is interesting for me to watch, because I'm usually too busy dying horribly to actually pay any attention to the music in souls games.
I'm glad! That's why it's so fun to dive into these after fighting the boss, esp bosses like Laurence that scream the whole time lmao
Plus this thing fucking screeches like an abomination during the fight
The song depicts, horror, tragedy, and nobility. Perfectly describes what Laurance was and is
Enough to make a grown adult tear up (depending on the day)
Literal perfection 👌🏽
reallll
Mati what you doing here 🤨
@@ahmadhaj3992 appreciating the craft what are you doing here 🤔
Ah I see my man Mati is continuing to listen laurence ost daily like you said
Yo mati. Feel the ptsd oozing out of this masterpiece?
Probably the best piece from soft ever made
High praise, but actually deserved.
Agreed and well deserved
It's probably not the best (objectively) but after dark souls series, passing with sekiro and finishing with elden ring, this is still my favorite ost in all soulsborne games by far!
@@MichTheWatonthere cannot be an objectively best piece of art, in my opinion.
I think this track and living failures are the unsung heroes of the OST. This song is legit so good, and so many people who talk about the music of this game forget this track. It’s a crime really.
It’s slept ok because Laurence is screaming the whole time and you can’t actually hear the ost lol
@@DreyfusLagoon
Same with Orphan of Kos
Living Failures doesn't get the respect it deserves. It may not be a great boss fight, but the music is incredible. Would love to see a reaction to it.
AAAAAAH THE TASTE 100000000/10
im getting ave stellae tattooed ✌️
It's just Holst's Mars with some twiks and gibberish Latin.
All of Bloodborne's ost's are masterpieces but this one is #1 for me! I hope if they make a remake(doubtful) they lower Lawrence's infernal screetching so we can appreciate it more!😭
No need for a remake
This song is beautiful. So sad and, yet, hopeful, it reflects perfectly the tragedy of Laurence, how his arrogance became his doom. BUT, the song is way better when you listen to it along with Laurence's screeching
The part of the song you were very excited, makes me feel Goosebumps every time I listen to it.
Laurence's song is the finale/marriage of some of the most major/memorable songs in the game. Pieces from Omen, pieces from Cleric Beast, pieces from the First Hunter, and the finishing resolution. Bloodborne's OST will never be topped for me.
Watching you physically struggle while you wait for the payoff is amazing
One of the things i love the most about this ost is that it is like a procession narrating the tale of Laurence, how he fell into madness and the spread of the beast scourge, all written in latin
Hearing this when you fight Larry, is a whole different experience.
this reaction was about 1 min after i beat the boss! fromsoft reactions always happen after fighting that boss!
I hated fighting Laurance so much in the DLC but his OST was indefinitely one of my favorites in the game!
I adore this piece !
I like the fight apart from the last phase
You have such a visceral reaction to good melody/chord progression...love it! 😁 also, dat cello solo Kreygasm
I love to see people who know their stuff appreciate this track.
This is literally one of the best songs I’ve ever heard
I loved that this song kept you so speechless. Like i could see where youre trying to comment on what they did but you're just so in love woth the track you cant help but let it flow. I feel the same way man. Its fantastic
Almost 9 Years later, this theme still holds up to The Title of masterpieces created by Miyazaki, and is still one of, if not, my favorites.
I love how you're enjoying this so much as well!! Ugh music is just perfection. Way too good!
Exactly what I'm thinking! It's my favourite OST in the game and seeing her not being able to get out coherent sentences is just gold
This is hands down one of my favorite (if not my favorite) soundtrack in Soulsbornekiro Ring. Loved the reaction!
ty!!
Never call it soulsbornekiroring again. It’s just fucking soulsborne
@@blobfishboy8678 What do you care? I can say DarkSouls123BloodborneSekiroRing if i want
@@cforcombo28 no you can’t, you forgot kingsfield and armored core🙄
@@blobfishboy8678demon souls?
Respectfully request "The Living Failures." I've never played BB, still love the song :)
Best soulsborne ost hands down. it's ambition, confusion and realisation.
I just listen to the first phase of this song on repeat because the Organ breakdown followed by the Cleric beast melosy chanting is impeccable.
Thank you so much, beautiful lady 😊 you really read my comment on Instagram and i'm really glad that you liked this awesome song :)
I absolutely love that musical motif the strings play-see 0:38
It adds this tension, urgency, and unsettling nature throughout the whole soundtrack. That being said, Cleric Beast is my favorite track from the album, but I also haven't given the rest of the OST a proper listen.
If you want some wild dreams, put on a soundtrack like this as you drift off to sleep.
Easily my favorite track in the game, it feels like I’m transported into bloodborne every time I listen, it’s so good
Every time i listen to this I feel like my soul is torn apart between heaven and hell
It's so much better than any other fromsoft theme, it's almost insulting.
Laurence’s theme song is basically the symbolizing or embodiment of gothic horror music
I like your video!! I recommend living failures as the next Soulsbone OST!!
I never that part 2 before, WTF WAS THIS MELODY ?!
My guess is this soundtrack is the relationship between Laurence and the old blood. From hopeful to grief to madness.
the music in this game never gets old...
big agree
"We are born by the blood, made men by the blood, die by the blood... fear the old blood"
*undone by the blood
Bloodborne truly is a bloody masterpiece, the OST, the gameplay, the boss battles, the lore, the graphics and everything about that game is simply just perfect in every way. I never though I’d play this game until I heard this ost, it’s beautiful, it’s emotional, it’s everything. Bloodborne is beautiful
Youve done it. These are the greatest hits of bloodborne. Honeslty all the music is a knock out of the park for me but youve just seen the hughlights except for 1. Gehrman's theme. Such a quniue final boss theme
I remember, after beating the orphan for the first time, laurence was my last boss to cut in my first Bloodborne + Expansion walkthrough back in the day it came out. Cleric beast soundtrack was my fav piece, as i was closer to completion i realised the nightmares were layered and we were climbing at the top, we started at the bottom, when his piece started playing and saw laurence with his flames... It hit me... Cleric beast was laurence afterall, a powered down collective memory of a past version of him, and now here he was when his beast form was in prime, and all the story... I was stuck in that moment
It's a true masterpiece of a gaming soundtrack
This song is the only song that brought me to tears the first time I listened to it.
The only other songs that make me cry are from nostalgia.
If it were me I’d be telling her to keep raising the volume. This song slaps 💀💀💀💀
It's a great piece. Indeed.
3:41 EST OMNES CAVETE

QUAM VIS CREDO ,
POSSUMUS CREDO.
Fucking masterpiece.
Please, PLEAAAASE, do Slave Knight Gael and Darkeater Midir from Dark Souls 3!! Both are truly amazing
3:49 i love this part because the music really says "Here is Laurence, first Vicar of the Healing Church," it says, "Look upon him in all his glory!" ...As Laurence thrashes around on the ground. Blindly. Madly. Mindless. Crippled, by his own hubris, and also by you cutting his legs off. It's so ill-fitting that it loops back around to perfectly fitting - by hyping him up so much, far beyond anything he deserves, the very music shows an unbridled contempt for the pathetic, miserable creature before you. "Here is Laurence," it says, "Look upon the triumph of his vision!" It's musical sarcasm and I love it.
stolen comment. dum dum
@@marcyvevoWhere's the gum gum at?
@@KimjongILL1941 mmmm yummy gum
Im pretty sure thats not what it says though. Every translation ive seen is slightly different but none of them say this.
@@steel2572 Its not a direct translation its more about what the music is saying about the situation, or the interpretation of the music.
I love to watch producers/composers react to FromSoftware OSTs.
If I may make a request on your next soundtrack to listen to: I highly recommend 'Living Failures' from Bloodborne, 'Gwyn, Soul of Cinder' from Dark Souls 1, 'Aldia, Scholar of the First Sin' from Dark Souls 2.
you know, if you were open to doing a bit more Bloodborne content... Living Faliures is one I'd highly recommend. Love your videos
"Peer into the mystery and the beast will peer into you"
"You should have heed the warnings of Master Williams, Mr. Laurence fear the old blood... Look at you, you became a hideous monstrosity with your pious curiosity" - Some Lore Man
2015 awards: Let’s completely forget this game exist
You are just like me when a solo cello begins. "Fuck everything, this is the best moment of my life."
Honestly never felt sorrow from a track till I heard this one. Better that Ludwig's, but I know I'm in the minority on that one lol
I prefer this one too!
Laurence is just less known because of his damn screeching, almost everyone I know who has reacted to both prefers this over Ludwig.
All time favourite soulsborne soundtrack 🤌
That sounded amazing, some of your reaction videos are very soft and it's difficult to appreciate the music and your impressions of said music, this time the music was technically too loud, but damn did it sound good, I've never heard it before so I was loving it, I just couldn't help but wish I understood Latin or whatever language they were singing in so I could understand what kind of epicness they were chanting. Regardless, the choir sounded awesome!
Ayyy my fav Bloodborne song!
This song encapsulates the old phrase in the Book of Proverbs for me “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.”
That moment you realize everything is about to go to hell and there's nothing you can do about it anymore except watch it unfold.
Every time i listen to Fromsoftware OST's it just makes me cry i fucking love this themes for so many reasons.
3:28 Honestly girl same. Favorite musical section from the entire Fromsoft library. Barring Majula's theme, best track dont @ me.
Fear the old blood
Fear the poison
Vídeo games music has come a long way since Mario Bros.
This and Ludwig by my favourite tracks. Also recently Sir Alonee for Dark Souls 2 has been getting higher on my list I recommend checking that one out
yesss love all of those!
Bloodborne ost blowing my mind
Dont let your weird chat disuade you. Thanks for uploading!
What about Faunts - M4 part 2 full version? The epic song from end credits of Mass Effect?
I think Bloodborne ost is the best in the series and some of the best in gaming, but my favorite song will always be either ds3’s epilogue or ds1’s nameless song. Honestly the first time I sat through any game’s credits sequence.
I LOVE HOW MUCH SHE WAS ENJOYING THIS 😭😭❤️❤️
i comment for algorithm to notice you.
like bcoz fangirling on those organs
I know its a hot take but i’ve always thought this song was an absolute masterpiece that blew pretty much everything else they did for these games out of the water. Even better if you know the character. Its on par with music like mozart.
I recommend the city must survive from Frostpunk it’s one of the best video game OSTs ever
More soulsborne ost pls
which ones would you like to hear first?? :)
@@emyoung Lady maria for sure :) she’s one of my favourite bosses!
@@Grundbeldknight she already did that one
@@Sobasicallyandthenprettymuchye oops my bad the first hunte then!
@@emyoung Father Gascoigne OST!
The best of ost of soulsborneskiro
I mean love this one alot it rivels ludwigs walts of insanity
The middle part with the violin always gets me because it makes me pity laurence. He was a good but arrogant man who really tried to lift the people of yhanram and guide humanity to ascension. And to see the beast he is under that part of the theme as his lashing out widly snd viokently and screaming. It just depresses me to see what hes become
Find yourself a partner that looks at you like Em looks at the Laurence theme. 🥲
LMAO
Kids love Ludwig's but adults know Laurence is the real goated
I'd recommend listening to the Halo franchise's OST next. Lots of kickass and sadboi songs in it.
we NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED bloodborne 2
Listen to Gherman's theme from bloodborne it will give the hardest goosebumps at least it did for me.
Couldn't find it on Spotify though
to my knowledge the DLC tracks aren't on spotify :/
You oughta check out the Halo soundtrack! Maybe start with One Final Effort by Martin O' Donnell and Michael Salvatori
thanks for the rec!!
You need to do Orphan of Kos's track!
I humbly request 'Darkeater Midir' from Dark Souls 3.
'Pontiff Sulyvahn' too, if you're interested. Much love.
two of my absolute favorite dark souls bosses!! thanks for requesting them
Quite possibly one of the most annoying bosses to fight, but his theme song goes indescribably hard
I loved the fight, was epic when he split in half
Monster hunter series got a lot of good OSTs so check it out you won't be disappointed.
Imagine if she reacts to Vordt of the Boreal Valley from Dark Souls 3
love vordt:)
Bloodborne has 2 best tracks, Ludwig and Laurence. Ludwig's is best for power and being dramatic, Laurence's is best for evoking powerful emotion.
Truly a shame how this is one of the best boss themes in the game even though it's the worst, most BS boss in the game, and sometimes gets overlooked because of that, this theme never fails to give me chills when it gets to the sad violin part, especially knowing about Laurence's story/lore.
Don't forget Maria
I always turn up the music on this fight
Their main composer just left to do her own thing too
You should react to darkeater midir from dark souls 3
midir rules, one of my all-time fav bosses from the series. would love to react
