I love how it has both the ominous, dire leitmotif and feel of Lord English and the fittingly childish yet terrifying feel of Caliborn, and then there's just that one bit where they make Revelawesome somehow way more epic
On the album, Calliope and Caliborn’s songs go back and forth in an alternating pattern Except for the last two, where both are Caliborn’s, showing that he had won over his sister
@@BUGFlower413 The album starts with a song for Calliope, then one for Caliborn, then another for Calliope, and so on until the end where Calliborn breaks the pattern, a hidden reference to him predominating over her It looks like this: 🟢🔴🟢🔴🟢🔴🟢🔴🔴
jesus christ this song is amazing. I'm consistently blown away by the incredible collection of talent behind all of the homestuck music over the years.
I haven’t read Homestuck to its entirety, literally just started. However, this is literally the best song from the thing in my opinion. It’s dramatic, it’s elegant, it basically screams ‘This is where it ends. I am gonna kick your ASS.'
Homestuck is just the Neverending Story with a perspective flip. This is why LE's time loop is not fully closed (it's another story for another time). Whereas TNES tells the story from the point of view of the reader, Homestuck is told from the author's point of view. Thus Bastian's role gets taken up by Hussie (this is made explicit in the author-insert sections), the roles of the Childlike Empress and the Nothing are swapped (driven home with 1. A gender flip and 2. Caliborn not caring about the story while Calliope does, the opposite of the situation in TNES). Caliborn, as LE, keeps the story going by being its main antagonist, and Calliope ultimately beats her brother and ends the story by turning the Green Sun into a black hole that consumes all of reality. Likewise, while Bastian befriending the Empress and giving her a name brings him *into* the story (his godhood is given to him), Lord English kills Hussie, giving himself control of the narrative (he takes his godhood by force).
@@vanadium723 "Literary analysis" might be overselling it a bit, no? It's a few sentences. It took me like 5 minutes to write and was mostly thoughts I already had. You want to see some real "too much free time" analysis, go read bladekindeyewear's blog. :P
I really like this interpretation, and I think it's almost certainly accurate to Hussie's original intent. The only hole I would poke in it concerns Calliope's black hole, which (dubiously) canonically contains the Candy sub-universe, as revealed explicitly in Candy 38 and implicitly by the presence of Meat Vriska and Meat Meenah in Candy after they were consumed by the event horizon in Meat. None of this materially changes the analysis of the original Homestuck, though; and symbolically, I think Calliope's eversion of the universe into another one still works as a parallel regardless.
EVERYONE SHUT UP AND LISTEN, I can't believe no one has realized this. But when Lord English battled Davepeta, within each of their souls was Equius and Nepeta. Within each of them were moirails, the two most functional moirails in the entire fucking series in fact. In Collide, we witnessed the two characters least likely to ever even consider harming the other one TRY TO FUCKING KILL EACH OTHER. Of all the things that could have broken me from this series, this was it. The realization that somewhere within both of those characters was someone horrified at what they were attempting to do to their best friend, their best companion.
I'd never thought of it that way! I think that maybe Caliborn's consciousness completely crushed Equius's, though, so hopefully he's just dead rather than trapped in LE forever.
But, unfortunately, Equius's soul was not crushed, we can see him argue whithin Scratch, we can see hin rough tendencies when LE stops the young Handmaid. He's suppressed, but not dead.
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!! Its just freaking pours out the vibes of something cool like “This is the end, the void will fill your life, and light will cease to be found. This is your eternity served cold.” Im really bad with wording but i love homestuck songs sm, they all give you such an amazing unexplainable feeling that makes you wanna get up and do something batshit crazy like take on a universes god!!!
The end with John's planet melody with Rose's violin , Jade's Guitar , and and omg i am overhelmelting (this is not a true word) with the music , sooo beautiful
I look at the video description to see who wrote this song, and instead I see "guys this is totally legal." I think you may be taking the wrong approach here...
Ha ha, I know right? This does not count as Fair Use, according to legal precedent. You are basically getting away with this because the copyright holder either doesn't know about it or is letting you get away with it. (The latter is probable since last I checked, there was some place where you could officially download all of these for free).
thekaboominator1 playing each part of the song is easy, but it doesn't do the song justice. It's just a d scale and some other stuff which is easy to figure out by ear. But you also need the guitar later in the song. So playing on the piano just doesn't cut it.
Remember, Lord English is 1/3 Caliborn, 1/3 the angry half of Gamzee, and 1/3 the 1/2-1/2 mix of Dirk's Autoresponder and Equius. He's sort of complicated
the problem with the cherubs was Calliope's face reveal, right? And I was kind of repulsed at first, but then, you know, because reasons, I tried to convince myself that Calliope was as beautiful as she sounded. And yeah, it didn't take long (it's all in the eyes). But _then_ I could never take Caliborn seriously because he was too adorable.
@@safourgardpa5459 I really don't think you should be commenting on other people's habits, considering your usage of right angle brackets here on the RUclips comment section.
Everyone goes on and on about how to toby fox wrote music for Homestuck, but all the best stuff was written by Malcolm Brown. Edit: yes, I’m being hyperbolic.
"All the best stuff" is hyperbolic IMO. But a significant chunk of the best stuff was by a lot of different people. Also they all collaborated and helped each other on tracks frequently. I will agree that a lot of the best sweeping, dramatic tracks were primarily by Malcolm, but whether those are the outright best is a matter of preference. But regardless, I do appreciate the sentiment that the other Homestuck composers besides Toby Fox are highly underrated.
No, you can't say that one of the composers are the best and stuff. They all made amazing stuff at different moments. You shouldn't compare artists like that :T
Honestly almost all of homestucks music is amazing and all of the artists have wonderful talent. Despite that i can admit i do have some favorites. Tho Gold pilot will always be THE top favorite of mine, probably because Im absolutely in love with practically all of First Turn Folds music and the style he uses in them to begin with, and because he did an absolutely wonderful job with it.
The 2nd half of this song appears in Collide and whenever the Penumbra Phantasm leitmotif i can't stop thinking of serenity flying over the kids as they struggle and get up it makes me cry and shiver
What if this song represented control of the universe. Caliborn's part comes in first as he destroys everything but Calliope's or John and Jade's anthem come in later to “Overpower" Caliborn

+Lapis Lazuli (Queen of Homestuck trash) is it cause those familiars are just girls who follow The Doctor and praise him, like how Caliborn made the female characters follow Dave in his series?
I love Caliborn as character, but not really as a person..??? What I mean is, I don't like the things he's done, but I just love his character? He's evil, but still awesome. Dunno.
The idea of DavvePeta is stupid Davve sprite wwas doin a good job on bein character but since hussie had to combine 1 stupid character and 1 cool character together it made somethin that I call an Abomination
1st Part: Whoa. 2nd Part: HOLY SHIT HUSSIE USE THE SECOND FUKCING PART IN A FLASH ALREAAAAAAAAAADY (wait he did already) EDIT: HE ACTUALLY DID, FULL VERSION THIS TIME. +9000 KUDOS TO HUSS.
+Dat Weird 69er The first 5 seconds of the second half of the song is not enough. If we get another super long and epic flash for the big battle that's about to come, I hope he puts the second half of this somewhere in it. I can just imagine it now...
Probably because her alpha version wrote the book that foreshadowed this whole event. So in a way,this is basically the musical version of rose going "I fucking knew it".
I could see that confrontation Caliborn (Lord English): *You shall fall here Doctor I am the Lord of Time and You are but a pathetic man* Doctor: Lord of Time? ah you seem to be mistaken, You may be the Lord of Time, But I am a Time Lord I am Immortal, Eternal, I have seen the end of the Universe and it's start I have been to worlds beyond your comprehension You may manipulate eternity, But I exist outside of it, My mind is transendent I feel the rotation of the planet beneath us, the revolution of it through the medium. I can see the whole of Time and Space, you only control Time and I exist outside it and outside Space as well, And so my sentence to you Caliborn Lord English the Cherubim, is to send you to oblivion into the void beyond this vast cosmos where you shall cease to be
I listen to this song every time I leave a relationship or job. I take inspiration from Caliborn throwing off his chains and discarding his useless other half.
"The player is somehow imbued with a limitless supply of power. Enough to destroy anything he wanted, for as long as he wanted. And knowing the villain of our story, anything he wanted would be everything. And as long as he wanted would be forever."

Would our new Alt!Calliope's version be this, or..."Infinity Served Cold"? While the current Calliope's would likely be "Infinity Served Warm".

jfc i regret scrolling down. I'm still in act 6 act 5 and shit all I see are S Collide comments
I love the subtle leitmotif of sburban jungle in there
excuse me, i asked for my eternity served hot. why is it so raw.
I went to the beach yesterday, it's an hour and a half drive, and i was listening to this all the way there and back i love it so much :p
Man... I enjoy this series when I was in middle school (some classmate found me reading it and calling me gay for a while😅 ah.. Memories) it's been like 6 year since I was hearing anything homestuck related, now in college, 'homestuck' for 2 year by pandemic got me thinking of looking at this series again.. It's been awhile
GAHH!! Why am I here?! I've only just started act six...
...yet I'm _here_
I think we can say that....
*YOU'RE ALREADY HERE* , huh?
i like how the whole album flips back and forth between calliope and caliborn songs then ends on this
Oh, Caliborn. You adorable little shit.
I love you. ..... I do not agree with this opinion, but I respect it enough not to argue it.
I suppose he can be likable, in the way that a sociopathic brat can be. He's likable when he's not doing anything.
Valon Abditus he's likable either wway
i suppose he IS a lord. what's a lord without followers? that's his whole thing. and since time always has a side aspect of chaos, i suppose he get's people to like him through his chaotic nature.
Wow, suddenly it all makes way more sense.
He does have a in canon cult
The simplified Do You Remem8er Me motif goes so fucking hard in this
Not a Homestuck fan. Don’t know the comic. But the music goes fucking HARD.
join us. you'll have no idea what is happening 90% of the time but at least we have fun
@@mama_m00n I appreciate it, but the reputation precedes you… I’ll admire from afar :)
Yiur life must be incredible @@madeleinebraham7500
Make the video full-screen, then type in "awesome"
As you will see,
*I AM ALREADY HERE.*
Anyone else get a rather Tim Burton-esque Nightmare Before Christmas feel from the song as well?
Sean Lambourne GO BACK TO YOUR CAVE UNDERTALE SCU- Sorry, the pappyroose triggered me.
Jamie Whatcott
lel, pappyroose
This song is AMAZING!! (And Caliborn, too).
I keep seeing that snake behind Caliborn as hair instead of a snake. Imo it would look good if it was though!
ooo now i gotta draw fanart of that!
I thought it was a scarf
say what you will about caliborn but he is literally always my fav somehow
He's my favorite character right under Spades Slick (Yes, I know my profile pic is Calliope and not Caliborn)
+The Fangirling Puella Magi calliope is also a precious cinnamon roll!! i love her :>
+Lapis Lazuli (Queen of Homestuck trash) is it cause those familiars are just girls who follow The Doctor and praise him, like how Caliborn made the female characters follow Dave in his series?
+Dat Weird 69er truly a masterpiece
I love Caliborn as character, but not really as a person..??? What I mean is, I don't like the things he's done, but I just love his character? He's evil, but still awesome. Dunno.
starting at 4:01
damnnn that got sooo good-
I normally don't feel a lot when I listen to music, but this, and only this, is the only song that's ever given me actual chills.
And Turn To Dust by Darius + Rotteen
We might actually be the same person.
Thanks for the tunes, chaotic silent chicken man
now every time I listen to this I see Davepeta vs English Undertale style in my mind
i see davepeta dodging english's punches like a boss
Igneous Crystal Davepetas stupid
gasp
The idea of DavvePeta is stupid Davve sprite wwas doin a good job on bein character but since hussie had to combine 1 stupid character and 1 cool character together it made somethin that I call an Abomination
lol
I like this part of the song alot 3:12 (+ the part used in [S] Collide)
When i was a teen i used to record myself singing parts of this song a capella...what i would give to be able to do a complete version 😫
This makes eating a meatball sub feel like I'm fighting fucking zeus
1st Part: Whoa.
2nd Part: HOLY SHIT HUSSIE USE THE SECOND FUKCING PART IN A FLASH ALREAAAAAAAAAADY (wait he did already)
EDIT: HE ACTUALLY DID, FULL VERSION THIS TIME. +9000 KUDOS TO HUSS.
+Dat Weird 69er Which one? I don't remember the second half being in an [S] D:
The second half's beginning was actually the last 5 seconds of Caliborn: Enter
+Dat Weird 69er The first 5 seconds of the second half of the song is not enough. If we get another super long and epic flash for the big battle that's about to come, I hope he puts the second half of this somewhere in it. I can just imagine it now...
+Dat Weird 69er UPDATE:
2ND PART IS USED IN [S] COLLIDE AKA A6A6A6. GG WP
Dat Weird 69er I know, that was so awesome. When I heard it start I literally couldn't stop shaking.
2:40-2:59 and 3:52-4:24
I hope homestuck 2s main villain will be like this
I hear just too many references to Rose's themes in this song for it to be a coincidence. What's with that?
There's only two
Two many
Probably because her alpha version wrote the book that foreshadowed this whole event. So in a way,this is basically the musical version of rose going "I fucking knew it".
@@skilllessguy7219 Well, she is a seer
most badass time-traveler, villain or not, lord english/caliborn doesn't take shit from anyone. unless your john i guess.
This is the most epic shit I've ever heard
I'm headbobing to this very intensely.
1 MILLION VIEWS!!!!
I mean, I'm glad you uploaded the song, but don't kid yourself: this is _far_ from Fair Use.
When I hear the first 3 notes of this song I'm filled with eternal rage!,
I hear Revelawesome in here.

When your zodiac sign is Ophiuchus.
Jett TheDoctor
Man I wish my zodiac sign is ophiuchus
ophiuchuses are badasses
And i thought ppl gave scorpio grief ::::/
Caliborn is a lord of time, right? Like the doctor?
Captat kateni you crazy son of a bitch you did it
you combined my two favourite things
@@blubglub4380 I would say he's more like the master than the doctor. dave can be the doctor.
Caliborns fashion style is based off of matt smiths version of the doctor, plus the relation to the number 11.
I could see that confrontation
Caliborn (Lord English): *You shall fall here Doctor I am the Lord of Time and You are but a pathetic man*
Doctor: Lord of Time? ah you seem to be mistaken, You may be the Lord of Time, But I am a Time Lord I am Immortal, Eternal, I have seen the end of the Universe and it's start I have been to worlds beyond your comprehension You may manipulate eternity, But I exist outside of it, My mind is transendent I feel the rotation of the planet beneath us, the revolution of it through the medium. I can see the whole of Time and Space, you only control Time and I exist outside it and outside Space as well, And so my sentence to you Caliborn Lord English the Cherubim, is to send you to oblivion into the void beyond this vast cosmos where you shall cease to be
yup, this one's going in the halloween playlist
Oh, I bet this is for [S] Muse: Rise or something like that.
More like [S] Caliborn: Enter.
It, It was used for [S] Caliborn: Enter.
Ah, my bad, then.
Well, the first half of the song was. Not the latter half.
let's hope we get a [s] Calliope: Enter to the second half
I just now realized that parts of this song are orchestral rehashings of English from the Felt album.
I listen to this song every time I leave a relationship or job. I take inspiration from Caliborn throwing off his chains and discarding his useless other half.
Wow you’re just as edgy as all the guys who identify with the joker
9th circle of Dante's hell be like
This is some high quality Power Metal right here
>fair use
>transformative
>no negative effect on the market for the original work
fucking kek
TOP KEK
Homestuck's greatest masterpiece tbh
3:12 fave part
Definitely a candidate for my favorite HS song :F
Shame you put ads on this though...
Favorite part
2:35 to 3:00 :D
