This takes "The masquerade has just begun, despite the party being none to lively" to another level.
Would you kindly was a good song
@@fluffierthenafox2766 *is still a good song
@@fluffierthenafox2766 So I thought you were talking about Rapture Rising but just learned they made one called Would You Kindly thanks for showing me a new song!
@@justinsanchez6255 your welcome my kind person
Wait, these are wholesome replies
"The audience is not your friend, you just love their applause."
that's my favorite line from here
Valid but in my opinion "Tell me was it all a facade little moth" is the greatest single line from this glorious Channel
0Put your mask on, give us a performance :) Better off with the mask on#
I must seduce the ear, delight the spirit, a song is reviled if no one would rever it. My favorite line
"Rage is a symphony glistening with crimson"
another favorite :D JT Music is brilliant for coming up with all these amazing lines
"The audience is not your friend, you just love their applause" really sounds like meta commentary about becoming addicted to the spotlight. Love those double meanings
Bioshock is really one of those games that is immortal from time... Live on and keep remembering this legendary game.
I only wish to experience it for the first time again
This game is dead, but I like how people are making content of it
Hell yeah
Amen brother.
yes
I didn't know that I needed a Sander Cohen BioShock rap until now. My favorite line: "Little Moth, you are now my Songbird." Love the reference to both Jack and Elizabeth there!
In one timeline, cohen was the creator of Songbird as hinted at in ‘Burial at sea’
Not to be rude or anything just pointing out that her real name is anna
@@chandlerlegrand8791 okay? We still know who they're talking about
plus, the game's nearly a decade old. Good chance that most folks here know already
Murder Drones are watching Bioshock now?
Hi I'm here now
The iconic bioshock phrase “NO GODS OR KINGS, ONLY MAN”
When i was a child, i had a dog named bill
Lol mr7reality nice quote psysloth how does that relate to this
@Mr7Reality yeah, most iconic line from bioshock infinite
NO DEVINE INTERVENTION WITH THESE MORTAL HANDS
He did say he'd make more bioshock raps look like they followed through on their promise amazing work guys
He said that would be thing of there's to make BioShock songs/raps
@@Catcreeper_69😊😊😊😊😊😊😮😮😊😮😮😮😮😮😮😊😊😮😮😮😮
You know a game is iconic when there are still songs about it a decade after release.
May Bioshock’s Glory never fade away.
They make one like every six months, I love it!
Does "Witcher III The Wild Hunt" also qualifies to an iconic level?
Loved that queen reference with "my make up is flaking but my smiles on" an amazing song with references to another amazing song. Big props keep it up
Which song?
@@itsclumsy5114 the show must go on I believe
@@itsclumsy5114 the show must go on, from the innuendo album(1991)
@@ripleyfry2107 such a fitting title for cohen
1 and 2 was extremely skits, now we got another bioshock....FANTASTIC!!! make more
Facts
"We will always make more Bioshock songs" -jt music from Bioshock infinite song
Agree, 1 is a timeless classic and 2 is one of my favorite games, infinite though.... it exists, thats all it has going for it.
@@mrbabyman4049 agreed
You really nailed the French accent for "artifice" and "façade".
Your most *inspired* Bioshock rap so far in my opinion.
Lets freakin GO! RUclipss greatest artists have answered our prayers and have given us another bioshock song! It. Is. Beautiful! My god. My god.
No gods. Or kings. Only man.
@@frozenpikachu1530 i was about to say that.
This song is amazing, not only does it sound incredible, it’s also a perfect depiction of Sander Cohen! Fantastic job Skull!
Thanks for telling me sanders' name. Had no clue what his name was, but wanted to animate a chunk of this song.
@@MrMoron-qn5rx his name is in the title of the song as well in case u didn’t notice lol
Go forth, flutter and frolic.
No more "keep up an act."
Go forth!
Flutter and frolic no more.
Keep up an act.

"I'm searching for the perfect harmony but all I've found is dissonance"
I see what you did there
I don't get it
It's refiring to lutonaritive dissonance and harmony
@@glastopasto1203 i still don't get it, but I don't think I wanna know at this point no more
@@miracon000fez OK so basically lutonaritive harmony is when the gameplay and story work together to tell a cohesive story but lutonaritive dissonance is when the gameplay and and story work against eachother
Hope that helped
@@glastopasto1203 i thought it was castlevania
This is a perfect song for Cohen it just gives of vibes of a man who believes the world is his canvas and every thing have to be perfect to complete his masterpiece
That phase was proved in "Can't be Erased" song - "The world May be your canvas, what you paint on it beware".
Sander Cohen is literally my favorite “villain” in Bioshock, Fort Frolic is so pretty, and his apartment room is just as funky as he is :), thank you for this wonderful song
He's definitely a strange one,Very un-nerving,And fitting in rapture
Cohen was the most sane of all the insane ones^^
People say, because he has always been crazy, Adam did not do *too* much of damage to his mind^^
The wild rabbit is one of my favorites ""poems"" of all time. The meaning and context is really personal for me
So happy to see a brand new Bioshock rap. Rapture Rising is one my all time fav songs.
Fun fact: It's also one of the favorite song of the group.
Daddy's Home is a banger too, and Would You Kindly is rather good. Debts To Pay is okay too.
@@AlexanderAzarov man, opinions I guess cause I think Debts to Pay is the best jt bioshock rap/song he's done lol
Then daddy's home, then rapture rising
Personally, this is my new favorite, but honestly I'm a sucker for the style of the music in the background.
@@goopysnoopy9324 yes. Agreed. Perfect. All correct. 100%
The deeper meanings behind these words are as exquisite as they are painful. I can really feel the pressure mounting on the lyricist from a societal standpoint. I hope this team knows that they are incredible at their job. ❤
I really like this, sander was one of the only characters that didn't attack you in Bioshock 1
Err.... You don't remember...
@@AlexanderAzarov even though he sent his disciples to kill you, when sander showed up himself he wasn't hostile towards you. Wdym I don't remember
@@bibisebi I remember fighting him too at the very end of that area
@@AlexanderAzarov he only attacks you if you attack him first
@@bibisebi no he attacks you at the end of bioshock 1 when you enter his room and kill the 2 dancing splicers
1st listen: hell yeah a new bioshock song... Hmm not sure I like it as much as the other ones.
2nd listen: hmm it's pretty good actually, not my favorite of the bunch but great in it's own right.
3rd listen: PLASTER THEM WITH IMPERFECT PURPO-
Bare yourself, draw back the curtains
Show us how tragic your story is
After all I know you've wanted an audience!
Underneath your untested, unquestioned desire lies a disdained created, dishonesty conspires
"To supplant ingenuity with ugliest conformance"
Put your mask on give us a performance.
give us a performance give us a performance
The Bioshock Bangers just keep on coming! Nice job as always JT!
Bioshock songs are absolutely my favorite 🖤 I'm so glad you're back doing what you love. I hope you're doing well and are in a good place in your life. Much love from Philly
WOOP WOOP
@@ggmgreenscreens3573 whoop whoop! MMFWCL 💜💚
"The ;product of an Operatic equation!" legit made me get up and dance, sent chills down my spine.
The fact JT is still making Bioshock raps is Confusing and amazing
Shiet, I'd be making a gangster ass rap song about GTA San Andreas inspired by motherfucking easy E right now.
Or using "hellyeah - you wouldn't know" as an AMV for one of the older twisted metal games.
Skull did say bioshock was his all time favorite game
HE DON'T MISS
Especially with Bioshock songs
I love this chorus
Makes me nostalgic. Can't wait for the new BioShock to come out
Did they give a date for that yet? Also Atomic Heart kinda reminds me of bioshock, I can’t wait to play it
@@MrYuki8767 I don’t think the game even has a public name yet.
@@Nah-NoNeed_ well, it makes sense for it to be called bioshock 4.
@@theeventhorizon1951 why does it considering there isn’t a game called Bioshock 3?
@@Nah-NoNeed_ true, true
God the "tell me was it all a facade little moth" is the best line of this wonderous channels career
I honestly wasn’t expecting them to make a Sanders Cohen rap but holy crap they made it awesome.
I've got nothing with theatrics and haven't played any BioShock, and yet can't stop listening to this purely due to your vocal performance. That's saying something.
I'm proud to love this channel.
Oh my god. Perfect timing as I JUST RESTARTED THE COLLECTION!!
And I was just thinking of doing the same. This song has to he telepathically making us crave it or something
@@thesong6984 it’s true. I’ve bought a fair few games because of these guys songs along. To name a few off the top of my head.
Far Cry 5
Dying Light 2
Assassins Creed Oddysee
And Sekiro.
A lot of the other games I either already had or just couldn’t get into.
@@thesong6984 Right. As soon as the notification popped up the Plane was going down and the title card popping up
Favorite part is definitley 1:06 "Plaster them with imperfect purpose, bear yourself draw back the curtains." Just wish it was longer
Please never stop making these 🙏
why.. why are all the bioshock raps just such a bop
[Intro]
Come in, little moth, beckoned to the flame
Grace us with a dance, welcome to the masquerade
[Verse 1]
Take wing, my angel, break off your chains
Rapture is a haven where the great are not constrained
Feel how the freedom of expression liberates!
But the ebb and flow will come and go in waves
Strip away the artifice - of what are you made?
A medium of blood and flesh, let the world become a stage
There's an art to war and a war to art the same
But I am not the one with which a war you want to wage
Make a weapon of the instrument you play
But if the key's predictable the signature must change
I've laid you down a canvas which shortly you will stain
With a palette of your sweat and tears coursing through your veins
Is an unconceived masterpiece, put the paint to practice
Unadulterated till your hands take action
Make crickets of the critics, all devoid of thought or vision
Unfamiliar to our labor with irreverent opinion
Plaster them with imperfect purpose
Bare yourself, draw back the curtains
Show us how tragic your story is
After all I know you've wanted an audience
Underneath your untested, unquestioned desire
Lies a disdained creator - dishonesty conspires
To supplies ingenuity with ugliest conformance
Put your mask on, give us a performance Chorus]
You want perfection? Lost in pursuit of it?
Take my direction, I can lead you to it
The audience is not your friend, you just love their applause
Cause an honest artist isn't what they want, better off with the mask on
[Interlude 1]
So take the mask off
[Verse 2]
Upon the curtains' closure, tell me was it all a facade, little moth?
When the masquerade is over will you keep it on or rip it off?
Do you know your part in the play? The role for which you've been cast?
Go forth, flutter and frolic, no more keep up an act
As you become your mask, demand validation
Back for an encore, standing ovation
Dance to your heart's content with elation
The phantom just began has manifestation
The product of an operatic equation
Your ballad's become an uncensored sensation
Blessed in inception - damned in creation
As you find violence your hand's motivation
Rage is a symphony, glistening with crimson
Your vigor is a gift with which you've been christened
An artistic epiphany is blissful if you listen
As the visionaries, are we ever crippled with precision
But the gravest sin committed is abandoning conviction
If you're guilty of it you'll be granted no admission
Tickets are revoked for all irrelevant opinions
Unoriginality is not a fixable condition
I've disposed of my disciples, I'm without a muse
They wore such unbecoming judgement, but I'm bound to you
My fickle inspiration might just be found in you
Little moth, you are my Songbird, now don't sing out of tuneI'm searching for the perfect harmony, but all I can find is dissonance! It's my curse, my fucking curse!
[Bridge]
I must seduce the ear, delight the spirit
A song is reviled if no one should revere it
So I want you all, yet none at all, to hear it
I've come to love a crowd just so much as fear it
No gods or kings, only man
No divine intervention with these mortal hands
The spotlights hot and all eyes are drawn
My makeups flaking, but my smile is on
[Chorus]
You want perfection? Lost in pursuit of it?
Take my direction, I can lead you to it
The audience is not your friend, you just love their applause
Cause an honest artist isn't what they want, better off with the mask on
Underrated
I sincerely thank you sir
Not all heros wear capes
@@sierraboothe506They have demon harem in this case
In my many experiences across many video games, I have fought and killed the Eldritch. I have slain gods and murdered kings, so on and so forth.
But nothing, I mean, *nothing* scares me like Sander goddamn Cohen. Well done.
You fear no god, no monster, only men.
Cohen, the Big Daddies, Little Sisters, Big Sisters, and those goddamn turrets are the cause of my fear of water
@@Karak-_- no gods or Kings,only men....NO DIVINE INTERVENTION WITH THESE MORTAL HANDS
@@v0idyt850 so then you don't fear water, you fear what is lurking in it's depths
Happy 1st Anniversary
That was absolutely perfect. Sander Cohen is one of those incredibly compelling characters.
I played this song at my sister's party
I have some questions
Siz I’m being a dick
@@Bloodfangshows I have some as well.
Did they at least like it? 😅
I hope they did...
I'm always impressed by the variety of different types of music you guys do, it makes my Spotify playlist a lot better
Just got my platinum trophy for Bioshock Remastered, it's very fresh in my mind. This game is a genuine masterpiece. 2 and Infinite are good in their own right, but as a new concept at the time, Rapture still blows my mind every time. There's soooo much depth to the lore of this place, I would absolutely love to see a Bioshock movie covering the events of the Civil War in full.
And what do you think about DLC "Minerva's Den". People say it is much better than the second game.
"the audience is not your friend, you just love their applause. Because an honest artist isn't what they want..."
I can't put my finger on exactly why, but as an artist, that line resonates in an almost uncomfortable way
The very first time I played BIOSHOCK and I finished helping Sander complete his "artistic masterpiece" I almost killed him but then I had a feeling that leaving him alone may reap a reward. I was proven right when I reached Olympus Heights, confronted him in his own apartment, killed him and took a photo of him like I did with the disciples he had me kill for him, earning the Irony Achievement along with the Power To The People station. Afterwards, I went back to Fort Frolic and opened his Muse Box and reaped what was in it. A fitting end for such a sad but psychotic sadist.
Sander was always the scariest to me when I was done with his missions I actually started fighting him not because I knew their was any benefit because I thought he was just gonna snap at any moment
I was the opposite of you I loved sander cohen
Always liked JT's Bioshock raps, they're what got me into the games in the first place
That puts JTMusic 4 for 4 with Bioshock songs that went straight to my main playlist
5 for 5 if we count Circus of Values.
The "presto, Fitzpatrick!" at the end was a nice touch
The chorus is WONDERFULLY composed and written, really capturing both Cohen's excitement and hatred for the doubters and critics! The common layman who doesn't know the first thing about being an ARTIST.
Man, this and the Little Nightmares songs slam.
I love the minor scale sounds. And apparently sin/madness content lol
What if someone said “would you kindly?” And that’s why we have this
A man chooses, a slave obeys. We need another banger of a Bioshock song. So make another Bioshock song, would you kindly?
@@thewolfofmaedwyn03 bet
@@thewolfofmaedwyn03 Could use one for the lutece twins. Be great if they could get the actors to do it.
I do like how in the first BioShock rap I believe their was a line “drawn here like a moth to a flame” and in this they call the same character a moth
this will never leave my head
Another JT banger, this man has no bad songs
These men
We need more songs like this. A mix of classical and something truly vile...if you catch my drift
This song genuinely speaks to me as an artist like it's just so... Perfect and genuine and captures the experience of creation. I love it!
I can never get over how you always set the tone of the game in your song perfectly.
Bioshock will never leave this channel
I will never get tired of Bioshock songs
GOD I LOVE ALL THESE SONGS!! We need a Dr Steinman one 😭😭
we can all agree that JT music made our childhood.
Love to see Skull doing better and doing something he loves about a game he loves.
My favorite part is everything between 3:30 and 3:52 but my favorite line is, " I'm searching for the perfect harmony, but all I can find is dissidence, it's my curse, my f#cking curse!"
I HOPE YOU NEVER STOP MAKING BIOSHOCK RAPS
"you want perfection lost in pursuit of it take my direction . I can lead you it.
the audience is not your friend you just love their applause"
that hit hard wow!🎉
The bomb ass bioshock songs on this channel will never end
Nice, another one and it's a banger like the rest. Love it!
The whole chrous hit different. and I connected to it so fast. I love this soneg
I love all your bioshock content. Your first bioshock rap is actually what got me into bioshock. So just thank you. Now I'm gonna go replay bioshock for the.....I've lost count at this point.
We had Atlas, now we have Sander Cohen
AKA my favorite Bioshock characters
This is so awesome
Bioshock will forever be amazing even after so many years and these songs make them even better
A song based off my favorite character from my favorite game and they call the song masquerade, massive coincidence right here lol
This fits Sander really well great job JT
Sander Cohen may be crazy but at least he sticks with his promises
I love this! I haven’t played bioshock before, but this really makes me want to play them all!
you should, take time to explore the stories, the visuals, looking for those hidden details, for a game that came out 15 years ago it still holds up to it's masterpiece
Bro you need to get up and get that game. All of them. This game is just amazing. It helps with depression, and that's coming from experience
@@masatkins1599 Facts
I played the game a little while ago thanks to their first sound "Rapture Rising"... and I was not disappointed once. The story, the gameplay, the universe, everything is excellent it's a masterpiece !
Except Infinite which I absolutely did not find at the level of the two previous opuses.
@@jackyguedin4882 personally I think infinite gameplay wise was better but its story wasn't at all at the level of the others
Your awesome songs encouraged me to try the Bioshock series! It's an interesting concept. I just started playing the original today. Thank you for sharing your music! :)
I should probably check out those games
Glad to BioShock is still getting some love. It's really slept on nowadays but it'll always be a gem no matter where time goes
Ok, just. I live for this, there are not enough character bioshock songs and I thought it would stop, when I saw this I got way to happy
I really love when it starts the chorus, theatrical like… It’s just really fits with your voice Skull. I need more ❤️😅
Cohen is one of my favorite characters solely because of how absolutely batshit fucking insane he is. This song really does him justice!
Sander is one of my favourite people in bioshock
Maaaaaaaaaan, another BioShock song, just another masterpiece
Every song you make is utter genius!! I can't stop listening to this. I wonder if a Brigid Tenenbaum rap could be done!
You guys should definitely do a mashup of all of your bioshock songs
This song is incredible. I don't know how you guys keep with these quility tunes. I love it and this one will be on repeat
Let's be honest these keep getting better every day
No
They are amazing they are perfection
Pun intended
ANOTHER?! 😄
That's what I thought
He said in order raps that he can not stop making bioshock raps
It's been a while since you made a Bioshock song. And this one is awesome. Thanks for bringing the memories back Skull & Pat!
i just got into bioshock recently, and now there’s already new music for it?? am i dreaming lol
This is the best Bioshock song ever made, I can't stop listening. And considering Dan Bull's infinite is out there? Massive compliment
Still making bioshock songs, what a legend, and they only keep getting better and better... by the way jt, you really got some seriously good musical skills, just wanted to tell
Ima be honest and this is just my opinion. The new stuff hasn’t been hitting as much as the old ones do. However, this one slabs! JT you have me hooked again! Keep up the good work my friends! My expectations have been checked and renewed. For you today, have made me a very happy man.
It's cause we all grew up listening to those amazing rap songs dedicated to games or even rap battles. English or Spanish it didn't matter, cause we all wanted to see this x game have a rap song from x artist or x character vs x character.
2017 onwards was when the popularity started to drop.
@@haatonofthebasementoutofth276 I’ma be honest wasn’t into their rap battles too much either. I just love it when they tell a story. And this did that, and I loved it.
I agree with your statement kind of
@@an-animal-lover to each there own. I hope you’ve been enjoying Jts song as well.
@@biznettuni9514 I have, just some not as much
1:06 it's all "stays on repeat" material, but this part hits like a drug. Need more of that sound
Cohen's my absolute favorite, I just can't kill the crazy bastard! He's too charming. Thanks so much for this song!
Now this is a rap that turned to be the most fantastic ever that JT Music really done such fine work that i can't get enough man
Jt music isn't losing their touch, love the song!
Thank you I've been waiting for a Bioshock rap based on a part of the game which isn't looked into to much for years and this is a song that will live in my head rent free it is briliant
I never played Bioshock but watching your vids brought back my childhood nostalgia about the 1950's and the 1960's
Oh my god they just keep getting better! LETS GO JT!
something tells me JT really really likes Bioshock
I absolutely love all of your Bioshock songs. Glad to see another one! Sander Cohen is definitely a character that deserves a song!
