Original Song:
• Dawid Podsiadło, P.T. ... - Развлечения
Cyberpunk 2077 as a game was just an excuse for CDPR to drop their mix tape. Game is full of bangers.
This game and this extension, from which the music is taken, sound magnificent. The story and characters are incredible and the music, which tells their story, enhances the whole. In short, a word of advice: play the game and make up your own mind.
@@Chris_OO_ I said jokingly that the music is so good the game only exist just so CDP can show their music talent.
. I played trough the game like 6 times. I pre ordered it and was a day 1 supporter.
@@Beexy96 Sorry, I didn't get the joke. In that case, we're on the same wavelength.
I love the song Chippin’ In. Such a classic rock song that never existed 😊
yes no yes no makura no! yes no yes no makura no! (I unironically love us cracks)
Bit of background: Phantom Liberty itself is addtional content for the game Cyberpunk 2077, and this video is a slightly altered version of what plays over the credits after you've completed this part of the game. I can unashamedly admit that the first time I finished Phantom Liberty, the ending I got had me bawling my eyes out for 5 minutes, the music just added to the mood.
Lol just finished today was bawling like hell 🫠
that ending scene was so damn powerful. really felt like the end of an epic james bond movie. I never wanted it to end.
cyberpunk is one of the few universes that manages to make me cry with every piece of content that gets made
bro so true, I had depression for at least 2-3 days and i couldnt listen to this song because all memories were coming back
Yeah, this song hits different when you've experienced the Phantom Liberty expansion, regardless of which ending you bring about . . . though that last bit about disconnecting resonates more with, um, a certain ending.
the Phantom Liberty ending video (this) is 110% worth of being a James Bond intro!
Now I want a 007 movie set in Night City.
@@1stCainite Well Phantom Liberty is basically that.
@@notsquarezum2858 Sure, but a whole movie, or even better show, set in Cyberpunk.
You beat me to it. I just commented the same thing
They definitely went hard on the 007 music intro
"Good night, Valerie. Today was a good day."
Glad you choose Fem-V, (her Voice Actor did a realy amazing job) but...
Only me nearest Chooms are alowed to call me by my name. One is dead, one is just in my head, one is the only Ripper i trust and then there is... the Tarot-Girl my dead Buddy was close to.
😢
T_T
😢
Never stop fighting.
They went so hard into the whole spy thriller campaign for Phantom Liberty they just said "Screw it. Let's make a Bond movie theme tune."
And what a great decision it was.
I thought the same. It would fit perfectly at the start of the next Bond movie.
The lyrics are about the story of the phantom liberty storyline in the game, “feels like a game, you have to play, you can’t escape”
In the game the president is an evil manipulative person who uses her loyal agents as she see fits and abuses them, and they can’t escape her and they have to abide by her, and the main character gets mixed up with all of this and is in downward spiral and only way out is through. You can’t escape, you have to play. No one is free, they’re all wired and chained, mere puppets, liberty is just a phantom.
100% the best synopsis of the dlc I’ve ever read
Yep. In addition, there are not good choices. Everything has it's price and always someone will get hurt, even though their motives may be noble. God, I love this game! :D
Dawid Podsiadło, who sings in this song, is one of the best vocalists in Poland today. In addition to performing this song, he sang on the Cyberpunk Edgerunners soundtrack and played one of the characters in the Phantom Liberty expansion. In this music video, the female version of V, the game's protagonist, collides with him.
What character did he play?
@@Spikebhaal Militech special agent Dante Caruso
Cyberpunk 2077 is more like a film that you can play rather than a game for me. It has too much cinematic action build in.
It's absolutely incredible.
XD
The scene where V calls down the Blackwall on the NUSA soldiers... I got chills.
"Is this video game music!?" I find it kinda funny that some peoples perception of video games is still stuck in the 90s.
It's really a whole art form these days.
Stuck in the 90s? Please, some people just decided at one point, without any reason or basis, that videogames are simple, silly, childish things, and nothing related to videogames could possibly be any good at all.
@@UnderTheBridge579 Yeah that was the belief in the 90s, but things have progressed quite far since then.
Listening to this song after finishing the story hits HARD
YES!
Videogames have been hitting the spot for soundtracks for more than two decades now. We've got tons of incredibly memorable music over the years and even some mediocre/not so great games usually have at least decent music. It's absolutely worth checking out.
This song hits you as a credits song for the expansion that like everything in cyberpunk ends on a more of a bitter note and it hits hard.
The best part of Video Game Music is that there truly is no "genre". Every game will have a completely different style to suit the creators own needs and the music for all of them accommodates this perfectly, leaving us with just an absolute plethora of incredible and unforgettable tracks across all genres imaginable
So, to give you a bit of context, Phantom Liberty is an expansion for the Cyberpunk 2077 game, a side story. In 2077, America is divided into the NUSA, New United States of America, and the free states. The game takes place in Night City, a megacity in the free state of North California.
Now, in Phantom Liberty, you are thrown into a spy-thriller story revolving around Rosalind Myers, the president of the NUSA, Song So Mi or Songbird, a netrunner (hacker) so good that she works for the president, she's the "robot girl" from the video, and also, FIA (Federal Intelligence Agency) Agent Solomon Reed, played by Idris Elba, a man who is both loyal to Rosalind Myers and who was also betrayed by Songbird at one point and left for dead.
It's a very complicated story involving politics and a lot of psychological games, where you have choices which affect the ending.
"Wires and Chains" from the chorus pretty much sums up Songbird's situation, where the "wires" she uses to connect herself to the net and work for the president are also her chains, as she is an extremely valuable asset and therefore pretty much a prisoner in her workplace.
OMG, just seeing the start of the vid, knowing whats coming, then the first notes and his voice. goosebumps already. this game and its stories, plus the tracks, just hits a different way
This game and The Witcher 3 have amazing tracks in them CDPR really hits the mark with their game music. P.T. Adamczyk and the composers/performers across both games are amazing.
U have to play the game and finish the story to fully understand this music.
In non gamer language, Phantom Liberty is a bit like a James Bond style game. Hence the music is VERY 007 movie style
Love that you gave this a chance. Cyberpunk 2077 is an amazing soundtrack. I would highly suggest your check out "Never Fade Away" the end credits song for the base game.
‘Video game music’ is no different to ‘film music’ or just ‘music music’. The lyrics are in context with the storyline of the game and not it being an actual video game.
I love that this song is just so good on it's own to elicit that reaction, you definitely picked up n some themes here (not least of which the tongue in cheek "feels like a game" in the chorus), but the whole song echoes a lot of the themes of the Phantom Liberty expansion - wires and chains binding us, be they real or metaphorical, making us do things we don't want to sometimes. And so much more.
And it also sounds like a James Bond song for a reason :)
Theres a Cyberpunk in game live performance of a song called Delicate Weapon performed by Lizzy Wizzy(Grimes). It was such an immersive moment.
And definitely do Herald of Darkness by Old God's of Asgard. They're an in game band in the Alan Wake games. Herald of Darkness is an entire level that is a musical in a horror game. AMAZING!
Performed by real life band Poets of the Fall
Also important to note that Poets of the Fall is a band that consists of developers from the game @@matthewobrien178
Video game tracks have a very interesting composition depending on what it's being used for. Because they can sometimes be used in contexts that don't match the length of the song, some have to be able to loop seamlessly to last longer while others must be able to come to an early end at multiple points throughout the song if necessary in order to transition smoothly. A good example of this is "Bury The Light" from the Devil May Cry franchise. Long song, almost 10 minutes, but contains masterful techniques in mixing and awareness of the different situations it may need to be applied in. Would recommend if you're interested in actually learning what sets video game music apart from many other forms of media.
The "game" referred to in the lyrics is the spy trade. This is the end credits for what's basically a dark, gritty spy thriller where you are the hero but no matter how you go about it and what your values are, someone you like will end-up getting badly hurt or worse. And when you finally get to that point, this song is your reward. When and how it hits you makes it very emotional. It's one of those games you wish you could forget so you could play it again for the first time.
Check out Lizzy Wizzy's (Grimes') song from Phantom Liberty called "Delicate Weapon". CDPR threw in an entire holographic stage performance for the song, just because they could, and its fantastic.
If you want to dive into Video Game music, be prepared to see all notion of music genre to be shatered and mixed together. Its mostly unique to each game and universe the music comes from.
But its also mostly without lyrics.
If you want some suggestions, just ask, I think many gamers out there are ready to give you a pretty solid list of cool things to listen to. ^^
Phantom liberty had some of the best storytelling I’ve seen in a very very long yomr
This game and this extension, from which the music is taken, sound magnificent. The story and characters are incredible and the music, which tells their story, enhances the whole.
Found out
Treasures are always lost
Pleasures and rage combined
I'm watchin' you
Be careful with your moves
Tonight
I think the time is right
I think the blood has dried
It cries for more
So what are we waiting for?
Wires and chains (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Starting to fade (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
It feels like a game (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
You have to play (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Lights out
Is this who you really are?
Can't look into your eyes
Your twisted mind
It's dark, so dark
We end it now
It ends right here, right now
Please tell me you brought the iron
Let's light up the sky
And fade into the night
Wires and chains (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Starting to fade (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
It feels like a game (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
You have to play (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
The days when it was good are gone
I'm tryna see what it was for, but I'll never know
And though it's dead, I hear the call
Wires and chains (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Starting to fade (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Feels like a game (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
You can't escape (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Wires and chains (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Starting to fade (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
Feels like a game (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
You can't escape (I'm just tired of looking the other way)
I found out
Treasures are always lost
Pleasures are long forgotten
Who are you now?
This hits way harder after you experienced the story.
There is so much awesome gaming music! I actually went to a concert last friday with a symphony orchestra playing gaming music. And there is one piece from that concert that gives me goosebumps every time I hear it and that is The Dragonborn comes! The story is that in the game Skyrim you can visit inns and there is usually a bard who sings this song. And a mexican singer songwriter made her own version of that song. And then it was changed by the makers of the concert I went to to fit with the head score of
the game. Would love to see you react to that. The Dragonborn comes live with the swedish radio symphony orchestra and Sabina Zweiacker
'This is gaming music?'
*waits patiently for you to discover anime music too*
for real.
i advise you, to please try this game.
the writing, the characters, the artwork, the city building, how they approach multiple
scenarios in regards to the human element alongside augmentation and tech of the future, internal politics, etc.
It's a game worth experiencing alongside the music.
so damn good.
Dawid is by far the biggest music star in Poland. 80k people concerts sell out in 30mins.
Oh video game music is probably overlooked, underrated by fans of music, maybe their not into video games perhaps or a little dismissive. But the music is often extremely well crafted, very much like with movies to highlight certain points. to drive a narrative, have the player feeling a certain way. It can really drive the momentum, and is the life blood of video games. Worth listening to, even if your not into videogames. There are many ways to tell a story through both image and sound, and video games do this very well. Could be well worth a listen, and may surprise as to the depth and scope that game designers, will go to convey mood, plot and ultimately tell a story.
Idris Elba voice acted and performed as a character in Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty. He also wrote and performed music for the game. Check out "Chokehold" by him.
The singer's Dawid Podsiadło. One of the most famous singers here in Poland. There's an anime made in the world of Cyberpunk called Cyberpunk: Edgeruners, and he made a song for that called Let you down, which is a certified banger you'd love if you like this song. The music he makes that's not related to games/anime is also cool, and would get a lot more recognition if he was in America. We all usually only have access to music relevant to our own countries, but there's so many hidden gems all around the world. Talent doesn't have a nationality and thanks to the internet, if you want to listen to a great artist from Japan, Philippines, Argentina, Maroko, all of that's just one click away on RUclips.
that has legit the tone, style and quality of a James Bond title soundtrack. Well done
Thank you for making me discover this song
yes this is music from a video game, but not really video game music. the song and animation are the end credits of the spy-themed expansion. you don't play while this song plays, "just" watch and reflect on the decisions you just made.
the mission and gang themes are really great. they build up from calm to tense to action to fit the gameplay. Valentino's theme is a bit long, but a great example. Contra La Luna, too and a bit shorter. oh and the game cuts and jumps in the song to match what you're doing, so this gets really immersive.
Wearing a shirt that says, Choose Life for this video considering the way Phantom Liberty ends, even unintentionally, is funny.
Videogames get a bad reputation sometimes, like its what kids waste their time on. This game is art. Its like a blockbuster movie that you get to participate in. The design, art direction, soundtrack,storytelling, all put together into one piece of art.
would love to see more video game soundtrack reactions! There are a bunch of absolute classics that are being slept on
Damn reacting this as your first video game music sets the bar high up there
Maybe she would like to react to Let You Down, also by Dawid Podsiadlo, also in the Cyberpunk 2077 universe.
This song is sung by a well-known Polish singer. He usually only sings in Polish, so I was very surprised to hear him in English.
The song itself reminds me of James Bond music.
The DLC was about secret agents basically, so they did a sweet Bond type opening for the end credits. Amazing. The whole games has like 20 radio stations and loads of bangers.
This sounds like a Muse and Radiohead collab...
the whole ost PLUS the radio stations are dope. this song hits much harder ending the story. I heard it before, after finishing the game I have a whole nother appreciation for it.
Stunning visuals. Fitting lyrics. Video Games can have amazing music, both with lyrics or without.
Wow, when I see people who do not know video game music, I'm always jealous, because I'd love to discover all I know for the first time again...
Few recommendations, very varied styles:
- Color your night from Persona 3 Reload
-Bury the Light from Devil May Cry 5
-A Beautiful Song from NieR Automata
-The Only Thing They Fear Is You from Doom Eternal
-Ever Come to an End from Xenoblade Chronicles 2
-One Winged Angel from Final Fantasy 7 Remake
- To Zanarkand from Final Fantasy 10
There are sooooo many more to list, but these ones have very different styles, and all these games have insane OSTs which I wholeheartedly recommend listening to if you're interested!
Even if you aren't a gamer, it might be worth it to watch a playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077. It's also a really good story, a lot of emotional moments and great characters.
I love this song/video so much. This expansion was meant to be a bit of a spy thriller story, and this video and song were playing over the expansion's end credits, and it was very fitting.... it was very James Bondian, and an emotional capper to a pretty emotional end to that story.
I remember old days, when game music just became serius, because we got more powerful pc and console components to finaly get something more than just 8 bit, but all non game industry musicians, when they asked people where they work and they answered "in game music industry", they always said, "this is not music"... that was so sad....
Absolutely loved it! Kinda wishing I was a gamer! Never thought about the music quality that would present there🎉🎉🎉tks Rosalie and subscriber request!🎉
Every aspect of video games is getting to be just as good or better than other forms of media. Music, storytelling, acting, choreography, cinematography, even poetry and prose in video games. I've known several people who've gotten into video games simply because they felt like they were missing out on a good story or movie-like experience. They didn't even care about the gameplay.
finishing phantom liberty it hits different, and the song kind of changes depending on your ending, changes the context
3am and ive just found you, 10 clips in and wanted to thank you for sharing, your thoughts, the discussions. Not sure if youve heard many Aussies, hopefully one youll be able to catch v v
Barkaa - Fight for me.
Thank you for the reactions xx
This is not just gaming music... This is a masterpiece written for a masterpiece... 😏😏😏
Gives me Radiohead and Massive Attack vibes
Preem! I see you finally jacked into the darkside, choom.
I think if You played this Game. You'll 1000% enjoy the level of immersion this song goes in for the Cyberpunk verse itself.. because Phantom liberty is a heavy Political game. ( not as a video game but its a political game, "You have to playyy" meaning you're forced to play.. hence lyrics changes to "You can't escape" )
The game's score is also worth checking out. Some of the most creative cello work you'll ever hear.
games today are an art form of their own, like movies.
So the “robot” you see is actually a living person. In 2077, people are augmented with Cybernetic parts. Apparently at some point between 2030 and 2050 they cracked the code of melding technology and biology together. Most people in 2077, walk around with cybernetic eyes. It’s actually an interesting concept, and I love the game. Still play it.
This song still breaks me ❤
There's a bunch of really good game music out there.
I haven't seen this yet but if you haven't heard, you should check out Boulders Gate 3 songs as well (another amazing game with amazing music). Also I just found you, criminal. Loving your backlog of videos! Cyberpunk had another song on the actual games teaser trailer (As many have pointed out, this is DLC) and idk why but the song stuck out to me years and years ago. It's called Bullets, but would recommend just seeing the teaser trailer if you are interested to see.
Phantom Liberty is Idris Elba's James Bond seen through the eyes of an "innocent" bystander. (No one is innocent in Night City)
Well, “Let you down” from Cyberpunk Edgerunners is pretty good too 😉
I want to explain the lyrics and music video a bit, but first I have to give a little context. The music video is a slightly altered version of the credits that play at the end of the Phantom Liberty expansion for Cyberpunk 2077. It *is* an action game, but a lot of the game actually centers around drama and intrigue.
The game takes place in a dystopian near-future California, where people regularly augment their bodies with electronics. Governments are controlled by powerful corporations, and the streets are run by ruthless gangs. The player's character has a rare terminal virus that they must hunt down the cure for. In Phantom Liberty, a lead for the cure leads down a dark path, entangled with the FIA (CIA in the future) and their operations against the warlord of a ruined city district.
Tough decisions have to be made by the player about who lives and dies, all in pursuit of this cure. There's surprises, betrayals... it's much like a TV show actually. Very entertaining even if you don't play games, and the ending(s) of the game are such hard calls and heart-wrenchers. It had me crying lol. All the actors (Keanu Reeves & Idris Elba!), voice actors, and writers did a phenomenal job.
This music video is the credits that roll afterwards (hence the rather somber mood). The video itself is characters from the game, and themes from the plot. Playing people like pawns, seeing yourself in others, making hard choices and pushing forward, that sort of thing.
I won't go through all the lyrics, but as for the chorus,
"Wires and chains" refers to the wires people use to connect their bodies with technology, but those can also be perceived as chains binding people to their gangs, organizations, or even their past. The following "starting to fade" hints towards letting these binds go, to find freedom. "It feels like a game" and "you have to play" doesn't refer to videogames at all, it actually refers to spy-work and politics (hence the chessboard of people). Refuse to "play" the "game," and you won't survive. The most impactful and catchy part to me, "I'm just tired of looking the other way" refers to the dark pasts of most of the characters, who do the dirty work of gangs and corporations. It's the desire to leave it behind, to start living for yourself. This is the main struggle for a lot of the characters in Phantom Liberty, and many of them die without ever getting to truely be free.
Overall this song and video was so impactful during the credits, they really did an amazing job with it.
Music is as good as the game itself. Masterpiece. My personal GOAT.
It reminds me of a bond movie
video game music has always been good
When I heard that music I instantly knew the story was going to have a tragic or bitter sweet ending and I was so right it fits the game perfectly
there's great beats in the Cyberpunk 2077 soundtracks, too. I haven't even played the game, but this one is play on repeat material. low-effort video.
CYBERPUNK 2077 SOUNDTRACK - WHO'S READY FOR TOMORROW by Rat Boy & IBDY
ruclips.net/video/jLXTBbMRxK8/видео.html
I still buy video game soundtracks on vinyl 😂
bond theme-like
Well I got tickets to see Heilung later this year who did the Hellblade II OST, and Eivor is opening for them who was involved in the last two God of War soundtracks. Years ago saw 'Videogames Live' which was amazing. Actually replaying Cyberpunk 2077 at the moment, great game.
Late to the party, but after this, you MUST do his other song in the game called "Let you down". Phenomenal singer!!
Making a good music video is a lot easier than making a good game 😭
Listen to more of the soundtrack, cyberpunk has one of the best sound tracks imo. Its incredible.
Id recommend Nieważne in particular
The thing about video-game music, it needs to integrate with gameplay.
If you want to listen to some more video game music, then you you should give Mass Effect Music a go.
yeah.... We've come a long way...
From the Quake soundtrack by NiN to current art like this "outro" from the Phantom Liberty DLC of CP2077...
Many games have long left the "just a game" turf...
Some video games have production costs similar to movies... I mean, Cyberpunk features Keanu Reeves among others. :D
Video games are its very own media now... I mean, for a whole while now.
And Cyberpunk is about dystopia, cybernetics, AI, thus the topic in the video.
Amazing reaction !!!
His voice gives me Radiohead (Thin Yorke) vibes.
Video stutters a lot, overlaps with itself, etc etc. Editing mistake?
The girl with wires is an augmented human hacker. She connects directly to the network.
You should hear chippin in and never fade away
If you like this, check out The City Must Survice from Frostpunk for something more classical (but still fantastic)
Dawid Podsiadło singing intro to next James Bond would be like:
Please listen to these 2 songs from the same game: "Never looking back" and "Just another weapon"
The song is not about video games just because it comes from a video game. That would be like a movie sound track being about movies, competely divorced from the plot of the movie.
You've probably already seen it but Dawid Podsiadlo in the Behind The Scenes promos that CDPR released for Phantom Liberty talks about this sort of thing. He says something along the lines of
"I'm so glad I can be here and talk about video games because whenever I mention it to someone in my line of work: I get this reaction that video games are not something for a serious adult."
I think this same thing is applicable here lol because when she filmed this, she really couldn't divorce the idea of "video games" and this just being a great song; she started talking about the lyrics being about video games 😂😂😂
This song has a very James Bond feel to it. It's pretty good.
Baldurs Gate 3 has some of the best music iv ever heard. Absolute worth checking out!
This is just scratching the surface when it comes to video game music, there have been entire concerts to them(u can find them on youtube), just check out games like Honkai Impact 3rd or Punishing Gray Raven or Hades just to give u some examples and u'll love em.
On another note, most of them are all safe to react to(all the mentioned above are) so go wild and welcome to the other side of video games :)
I recommend to try out Baldur's Gate 3 ingame music (like main theme) or Honkai: Star Rail trailers music. There are gems in those.
So, Darren Korb's Hades work next, right? xD
Should check out low roar's music from the game death stranding
