Technoblade meant a lot to a lot of people, myself included. I wanted to make something special to commemorate him.
Most of the time, it only takes me a day or so to write lyrics, but this song took me weeks. I was searching for the right words, wanting to make sure it was as perfect as it could be for Techno. It took me a while to figure out what I wanted to say. Techno was, and still is, one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I started watching his content in 2020. I remember being so excited for online class to end so that I could catch a Techno stream. Late at night or during my lunch break at school, I would binge his videos, SMP Earth, Minecraft Mondays, bedwars, skywars, you name it. The character he made for the Dream SMP was also one of my favorites.
If you've watched my other videos, you might have seen that I've written quite a few Dream SMP songs. Techno was one of the first and only big content creators to ever comment on one of my songs. Discovering that he listened to my song and liked it was an incredible feeling. It made my entire year!
During a really dark time in many people's lives, Techno's content brought so much joy. I made so many friends through Technoblade, online and in real life. I remember my junior year I didn't have many friends at school. Then one day I found out someone in my AP class loved to watch Techno and we became friends through that. When we were waiting to take the AP test at the end of the year, the two of us were doodling pictures of his character on our scratch paper. Most people probably don't know this but for Halloween, I dressed up as said character. Some other friends that I had introduced to Techno's content did a group costume with me. There are countless other stories I could share, but I'll keep those close to my chest for now.
When I found out Techno had passed away, it hit really hard. I really hope this song can do him justice.
This video/song is a fundraiser for the Sarcoma Foundation of America, which is the charity Techno's family is supporting on his merch site. I will not be monetizing this song or uploading it to any other streaming platforms because I want this upload of the song to get the most attention, so people can see the fundraiser and donate.
Thank you so much, Techno, for being a light to so many in a dark time. Thank you for the laughter and joy you gave me and countless others. I will always treasure the memories and the friends I made along the way.
Legends never die
Big shoutout to @capillis , aka Grace, who helped me produce this song, and @Niffin, for making the beautiful artwork. Both of them did so free of charge, just happy to help contribute to the fundraiser. They both put a lot of time and effort into this and I appreciate them so much. Thank you!! - Кино
May we also commemorate Alex, not The Blade, not Techno the youtuber but the man who in his last moments wrote a video, who was funny, who kept us enjoying things and above all kicked the hell out of those orphans
HAAAAAHHAHAHA
He rly made a meme out of his own death also couldn’t even get 1k videos L
Yes
You know he wanted to be remembered with me meme and happiness
@@truegodtahngata632 hence the last part
I hadn't heard about Techno until after he died. It's an odd feeling, to suddenly find a youtuber you really enjoy watching, but knowing that they're dead and gone now, and you're watching what they've left behind. That there won't ever be new content to look forward to. It's a solemn feeling. The world lost a good man that day.
Yes I felt the same but now Ik how because of what he accomplished he will never even forgotten
Technoblade isn't gone. He may not be around. But if we don't forget him, he's not 'gone' he's still always going to be here. Techno never dies :]
I've watched the dsmp for a good while, but it was only a few months ago i rly got into techno in specific. I was actually on vacation the day he passed, so i leearned a little late but it left me heartbroken especially bc im the only one of my friends who watched dsmp(bc im a christian girl and none of them like the swearing, i just dont care) so im the only one who truely understands and they dont get why im so upset over a man i never met.
btw sry im just unloading on you but it feels good :)
I've been watching Technoblade for almost 7 years and he was always a beacon of joy and kindness. It was in the night that I got the notification of the video and instead of going to sleep and watching it later i clicked on it only to have my heart shattered. The man many of us looked up to and idolised had past on. That night I silently cried myself to sleep while hearing the words 'I am dead' over and over. But eventually as I drifted off to sleep I hear him yelling 'TECHNOBLADE nerver dies! Never doubt me again chat, Technoblade never dies!' Safe to say that those 7 years came back with the force of a fright train.
May he rest in peace.
I’m the same actually, tho I heard fan songs and animatics sometimes. I only learnt of techno blade a few days before his passing, but didn’t quite watch his videos even thought they get recommended on my page. But on the day of his passing, I started watching his video, and god do I regret not watching him earlier, may he rest in peace
Before: I am very excited to see this. Techno was and will remain the greatest player in Minecraft history. It is up to us to keep his memory going so that Technoblade will never die.
There’s an evanmc video tribute to technoblade if you haven’t seen it you would love it
@@Wildteen354 I mean ofc I’ve watched it
You really studying every second of this song.
there is a Technoblade Never Dies splash text in Minecraft now, he will never be forgotten
after??
This reminds me of the fact described in this quote:
“A king is a king, but a bard is the heart and soul of the people; he is their life in song, and the lamp which guides their steps along the paths of destiny. A bard is the essential spirit of the clan; he is the linking ring, the golden cord which unites the manifold ages of the clan, binding all that is past with all that is yet to come.”
― Stephen R. Lawhead, writer
There was a time when culture was kept alive by song and that is what these songs accomplish. Keeping Technoblade alive even after Alex died.
Tears
In pop culture we have a King of Pirates, a King of a country, and now we have a King for our hearts.
Alex is dead.
Long live the King.
Hail to the king
"People are only dead.. when they are forgotten."
My dad the engineer likes to say "A civilisation is built by its engineers, but it is remembered for its artists."
Super upset about techno. It makes me happy to see people still making fanart about him, reminding me he will never be forgotten.
Yea
@@ImCozyAsHeck None of us will ever forget about him
Agreed
@JOHN CHAN You don't understand how disrespectful that is, whether you're a bot or not. Absolutely insane.
I remember a song from "Dear Evan Hansen"
No one deserves to be forgotten
No one deserves to fade away
No one should come and go
And have no one know he was ever even here
Dear Technoblade,
The war is over and we have finally shed our tears
some tears still fall and many still come to my eyes.
The memories you created will remain here and we will make sure....
that the Legend of the Blade never dies. Thank you
Sincerely,
Your Fans
Dear Technoblade,
Thank you. You brought so much joy, and now I must bear the inverse of that joy in the pain of your passing. Countless laughs, memories. You inspired me to become a RUclipsr so I can spend my life making memories so I have a story to tell just like you. You’re the best techno, love ya king.
Attention! Helmets Off! Salute!
attention! Buckets off! Salute!
Attention!!! Here come the legend!! Helmets and hats off!!! And Salute!!!
Alex died that day, but the legend of Techoblade. Well that will never die.
Alex will never be forgotten due to this either. Although he is not here anymore he has inspired millions of people and through his legacy a little part of him will continue through us all.
I miss Technoblade o7
He wasn't just a RUclipsr but a hero and an inspiration and no one will quite never live up to his name.
Stay strong gamers, Hyrdate and look after yourself's and tell your loved ones you love them.
You don't know when the last day you will have will be with them, so live life to the fullest.
Most of all go after what you love and try to reach for the stars. If Technoblade did it we can too.
Rest in peace Technoblade.
He headed any who had power yet he is the most powerful of all no other RUclipsr could ver life up to his name o7
This is inspiring. o7.
:> this is sweet, thabks for writing it mate, :) hipe youre doing okay!
Rest in power Technoblade
@@muffin6181 I am thank you.
Legends never die. People ask why not. It's because their stories live on. Passed through generation to generation, person to person, for hundreds of thousands of years. I'm sure Technoblade won't be any different.
You kind of went overboard right here. There is no story that survived for hundreds of thousands years. This one might be different though.
@@Laszer271 Technically, we don't know that. Written word only goes back some five thousand years, but we don't know how long any of those stories we have since then have been around. I contend that the oldest continually told story in all of human history has been around for well over a hundred thousand years, and it is "my cousin's uncle nearly caugh a fish that was thiiiiiis big" making that fish a legend.
A man is never dead so long as his name is spoken.
@@Laszer271 Cadmus was the very first Greek hero that we know of. He lived in 2000 BC and is said to be have been the greatest warrior until Heracles came about a few hundred years later.
Cadmus lived 4000 years ago and is still known today.
@@zerglinglover2303 That's just 4 thousands years, far off from hundreds of thousands
"But sometimes even legends must ride off into the night."
That... that really helps honestly. Thinking of Techno's death as just a necessary goodbye. He didn't die unprepared, wishing he could do more. Techno lived his life as full as he wanted to, and change so much. Even if his story's over, it has a beautifully made ending.
I think that God has a plan for everyone, and Alexander was so great that he did everything God planned for him in just 23 years of life, so, in conclusion, I guess you could say that legend literally just speedran life itself...GG...good game.
@@Abyss8564 That's a nice sentiment... I think. Though I do feel obligated to point out that Techno is atheist.
@@TheAdvertisement I thought that was a joke...welp
@@TheAdvertisementnah dude was such a chad that he got a free pass
I am sure his presence will be with us in spirit as we listen to this one.
I love the way you worded it as “riding off into the night.” He’s never gonna truly die, he’s just left us for now to bring his light to even more people somewhere else.
It still feels so surreal that he's just... gone. Physically, there's a space left where he once stood and thousands upon thousands whose heart surely aches with that same unfortunate familiar space in their chests. There will be no more new videos from him. No crumbs of content or funny tweets or random bird posts. And yet, at the same time, he has immortalized himself through his actions. His voice has been recorded and uploaded, memorialized forever until the end of technology and possibly the world itself. His actions have brought hope and fearless attitudes towards cancer and our own struggles and obstacles.
Mourning is not done overnight. Nor over the course of a few weeks. That pain will be there. It will grow and dull as waves against a beach's shore. And although our chests are in pain with his absence, the legacy and presence he left behind has the possibility to fill the holes left behind. A mortal does not leave behind such a wake of realization. A god doesn't cause a shattering of a community that rebuilds itself off the pieces of their beloved lost one.
A legend, in old terms, doesn't bring the world to a slow crawl.
Techno. Alex. A man behind a screen. Someone who carved a place for himself in the world and history across generations that watched his content and followed his growth.
Raise your glasses and lift your lights, chins up and smiles of bittersweet goodbyes take the tears that flow from your eyes. Our king may be gone, but with his presence remaining, reinforce the legacy he has written for himself. Confirm his legend status and continue it for eons. Sing songs of praise and recite poems of sorrow in his stead. But remember. Always remember.
Rest well, our beloved.
Its so dumb too like 23? cancer? why? we will probably cure cancer within a few years and he dies to it its just unfair.

You have given the feelings of everyone here a form in the shape of these words. o7
O7
I have a rule that whenever i see this song doesn't matter what im doing i must listen to the whole thing
'but he showed them how to come alive
in their darkest times, he brought them light.'
this line means so much to me as someone who battled against depression for a very long time. im still fighting it, but techno eased the pain majorly and i have him to thank for me still being here. i hope he went knowing that we all loved him, and that he saved many lives.
thank you techno, rest well
Same I looked up to him as an older brother and I'm battling depression
@@blue_collar_solidYT how are you now?
@@yixako8387 I'm ok I'm always anxious because graduation next year and my Boy Scout stuff
You guys don’t have to go it alone! Sure, Technoblade is not here right now, but he will be back, just think of how proud he’ll be of you, how happy he will be with you!
That, for me, is the greatest motivation.
attention! Buckets off! Salute!
Eyyyyyy! Techno song POG!
Now that Alex is gone it's our turn as his followers to tell the tale of Technoblade so it's never forgotten.
I love how together techno’s community have come from mourning to instead commemorate him as we continue to support his family, friends, each other and continue his legacy.
We can be certain that his legend will never die
Every time I hear this song it reminds me of a quote: " every man dies twice, once when he ceases life functions and the second time is the last time his name is ever spoken, and it's sad that sometimes it's not in that order" so truly, technoblade will never die
The saddest part is the fact that you can hear him ride off into the night at the end of the song…. RIP Alex
It's so weird not seeing Technoblade saying "yoooo this is incredible!" as the top comment
I once thought my memory was defunct, glitchy, or poor, and that the death of a person I once saw on the internet would just... fade away, like smoke in the wind taking all I felt of them with it.
what a fool I was, to think that I could ever forget.
"Technoblade Never DIES!" - Technoblade
If you wonder why the good people are always taken early, know this: When you are picking flowers, which do you pick? The most beautiful, right?
Congrats on 14 million, Techno💕🕊
Rest now, you deserve it.🕊💕
Goodnight, Alex🕊💕👑🐷
stop im crying even more now 😭
someone else may have said this but, “people die twice, once when their heart beats for the last time and one, when their name is said for the last time”- i don’t remember who said it first but they are right.
"Tonight I bear tragic news to you all. The comrade, the enemy, the ally, the Blade, all former known as Techno lost his life in a war. He fought bravely against the monster known as cancer but has eventually lost his life. So tonight my friends we shouldn't morn. Tonight we shall celebrate. Celebrate the life Techno lived. We shall Celebrate the story he was written for himself.
Tonight we shall feast on potatoes and meat! So his soul can live on inside each and every one of us!
And my friends remember:
LEGENDS NEVER DIE" -Writer unknown.
I still struggle with looking at Technoblade themed things, watching one of his vids i can only get halfway through until it becomes to much, i dont like when i hear my siblings or friends try to bring him up because im still in that stage of denial even though a part of me knows he isnt alive anymore. I avoided listening to this song when i first saw it but kept it in a open tabbed and finally willed myself to listen and im glad i did, it touched my heart and even though my heart ached thinking about his passing, the song also feels like a relief, the passing is hard for us all especially his friends and family, but we heal together, and knowing people are still doing things like fanfics, fanart, cosplays and so much more makes me happy that he is still living on in our hearts. Rest in Peace Alex, you'll be missed but not forgotten
I finally understand how those families of the deceased feel. Even though everyone says to just move on it's so hard to actually do it.
@@titledgoose8233 yeah i feel you, ive had family members die but i wasnt close enough to them to actually be affected
"Heroes always get remembered, but you know legends never die" Techno was both in a way. This song gave me shivers, that's how you know it's good
Technoblade never dies. First it was his promise to us now it is our promise to him
"A person does not die when thy pass away, they die when they are forgotten"
Before: After hearing the news Legends never die was actually the first non technoblade song I heard as I felt it fit him somehow. Glad to see I'm not the only one. I can't wait this is going to be amazing.
"And when he had to leave them all behind" I could hear the emotion behind it
When do you think a man dies, when he is killed in a accident, when his heart ceases to beat. No a man dies when his tale ceases to be told
Techno's passing literally broke my heart but I'm so glad so many things are going to keep him alive in spirit
Whoever created the phrase "dead men tell no tales" clearly didn't anticipate the invention of RUclips, because this tale is one of my favorites even if I can't help but cry at the ending.
In Commemoration of the man who brought so many people to tears of his passing, but the one who was the same one who made every single one of those who shed tears, also the joyful laughter and enticing intensity of his streams, videos and even simple tweets.
Rest in peace, Legends never die and neither does the Blade, Technoblade or Alex ❤⚔👑
I’d say this does his death justice but I think the community that grew behind him is the justice for it will be forever growing
"Heroes never die... They're reborn as Legends" - Super Galaxy Rumble from League of Legends
So many beautiful words. You both acknowledge his kindness and his legend. "But sometimes even legends must ride off into the night." That hit me.
Their stories will survive, for legends never die. We will remember Technoblade, and he will never truly die.
Beautiful.
Carl when he was trotting away sounded like techno riding him into the place he is now
I tend to watch back his content, and everytime it feels like he's still here. It's because how lively he is in each of his videos, making jokes. It comforted me.
He's gone. But it doesn't feel like it. He will live on for a very, very long time.
Same
The legend of Alex "Technoblade" will never die. That is the promise we've made and I will keep
Before: I have a feeling this song is going to br awesome in every way possible. We all know that Technoblade never dies! o7 (idea from rc gaming)
After: This song touched me. Its great and heartfelt. You can tell she means what she says. Sometimes even legends must ride on into the night. Thank you Amanda Fagan for this wonderful tribute. And thank you Technoblade for all you've done.
o7.
What does o7 mean
Saluting
SIMP
The “o” is a head and the “7” is an arm
o7
It’s a salute
They were both great men
“A person dosent die when their heart stops beating, they die when there name is no longer spoken...” Technoblade will never die
Someone needs to forward this song to his family. It would mean so much to them to see the impact their son made.
God it hurts to know it’s been over a year. Still feels like yesterday .
Same here 😭
I only discovered Techno recently, and I only got to watch two streams, but he was the first one I ever watched live. Him dying is such a weird thing for me, because I can't even tell how I feel about it.
I'm super hyped that you are doing a tribute!
Can you tell me which timezone this is, so I can catch it?
Pacific Standard Time Zone.
@@marvelguy8101 Thank you!
Pacific Time
Orphans before: RUN ITS TECHNO
Orphans now: ...We miss you, Techno.
Man I didn’t know that techno could even send down the voice of an angel, what a great dude
Beautiful
Technoblade was a hero, a legend, a comedian, loving, compassionate, fearless but most of all he was Alex, and we will always remember Technoblade for what he had created and so dearly loved to do. May he rest in peace, Alex "fly high king, you never really died, u simply passed on."
Normally, when someone made an amazing song about him, he will comment to applaud the artist.
Now, he will never applaud on amazing fan’s work again.
Legends only ever die when the universe comes to an end. They don’t die when they’re body stops breathing. They die when we die. And only after the memories of those who knew the legends are gone, that is when they die. And we will pass down this legend of Technoblade.
This is going to be an amazing song. Everyone will be touched by it.
The sheer amount of Technoblade tributes is staggering. The quality of most of them even more so. This one sits near the very top.
"And the story will last forevermore" - Daichi Miura blizzard
“Don’t be sad that it’s over, be happy that it happened.”
I know this song will be amazing and make me cry at the same time, Technoblade will always live on in our hearts and memories because legends never truly die
Well Said
You only truly die once no one remembers your name, so in that sense techno will never die as he will always be remembered
"But his mark was more permanent than foot prints in sand" goose bumps literal goose bumps alex rest in peace u will never be forgotten at last Technoblade never dies you're the one who i was inspired by to play bedwars
I hope animatics and songs keep being made with him like he’s not dead and he’s still here
A Hero Dying becomes a Legend
In time A Legend becomes a Myth
techno is looking down from his afterlife with a smile
Alex's Laptop should be put in a museum for the legend that played upon that laptop
These comments are bringing to tear, after a month I finally realize it's real, I will never see a video again. It hits hard. Rest high Alex/techno
it's been so many weeks since his passing... Farewell, Technoblade, the legacy will move on...!
TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES
Wow... This will be my favorite tribute song for Techno I ever heard. I don't normally sob, but i can't seem to hold it back this time..
Technoblade's Legendary tales will live on.
I like how this sounds like a bard telling his story through a song, like his tale was passed through generations as it should
I still cry every time I hear this song.
Same
Alex may be gone, but Technoblade never dies.
WWE must put Technoblade in the Hall Of Fame and we'll use this song as our rallying cry
Rest in piece Alex.
Never forget the man behind the character.
I can't believe it's been a year alredy. RIP Technoblade
Watching this ripped my heart apart because technoblade's death is just a lot emotionally. Legends never die, in our hearts, and technoblade is the greatest legend there is.
"How can the dead be truly dead when they still live in the souls of those who are left behind?" May Alex rest in piece.
this is such a good song sad alex will never see it rest in peace
Well I think I finally have the strength to say thank you for this goodbye
Its been half a year and his name still makes me cry, people say a man dies twice, then he is killed, and when he is forgotten, the day he dies twice the human race shall be gone
This comes out on my birthday this is the best to remember him, and please keep up the great music Amanda
This song brings back memories of Technoblades incredible, engaging content. He will be missed ❤
*sighs* This is so beautiful. Even though though he isn't with is right now, Technoblade will never die in our memories. o7 and great song.
...
I bet Techno's just so flustered and calling us nerds for mourning him X'D
Technoblade once said that the only thing that works in this world.is that you treat others as they treat you,those who have treated me with kindness,I will repay that kindness 10 fold.I believe that for most of us he has repaid that kindness 10 fold over the years of his legend. May his soul rest in peace
I’ve been in denial for the majority of his journey fighting cancer, and thought that he would definitely recover. I had been hoping that he would suddenly just appear again, out of nowhere, like he had used to do when he disappeared for months. Now it just constantly hits me that he’s not here anymore, and never will be ever again. I just hope that we will never forget what he had done for us. Rest In Peace.
(Technoblade never dies.)
"Having abolished all governments of men, I have ascended to heaven to take on the Kingdom of God."
I started crying not even halfway through, but I was smiling the whole time. Thank you so much for making this song, it's really helping me.
Ironic how he laid down on the floor in his last video as the outro (TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES)
Technoblade was truly one of a kind and he may be dead but he lives on in our hearts
Normally, a memory of mine that has aged a year is smudged and faded, yet, I remember so vividly, the night of June 30th, my birthday was a month away, “so long nerds” initially i was ecstatic, i had never been this early to a techno video, but then i registered the title, and thought: “what if he’s.. no, he probably can’t keep uploading videos. Right?” I was wrong, so horribly wrong, "this is NOT what i wanted for my birthday...".
This legitimately made me cry. Thanks so much for making this, it's beautiful.
The only song that’s lyrics made me cry
When I first began watching him it was because my friends told me my humor reminded them of Techno. I quickly became a fan because they were right, my humor was almost the same. I always planned to donate to Techno to show appreciation, he helped me stop being sad all the time, he made me laugh and I learned a lot from him. I harbor so much respect for Alex the Great (the 2nd)
No one will ever replace Alex in my eyes, and in the eyes of others too.
The King was let go far too early, but I hope he can rest easy knowing he inspired millions.
One last thing to say: people need to show more respect, some the things I've seen since his death make me wonder why those people have rights.
One and a half years later and despite the song's greatness, i still am utterly unable to watch it through to the end. We miss you Alexander. Hope ya get the war of a lifetime. *THE BLADE WILL NEVER DIE!*
May the legend of Technoblade never die.
Every bit of content made by Techno is a true treasure. His channel is a time capsule of nostalgia which holds many memories of laughter, anticipation, celebration, etc. It is surreal to know he is gone, knowing that nothing new will be released from him. His legend may be over but it won't fade. As long as he is remembered, his blade will never rust and be passed down to generations to come.
Though I may have stumbled upon this song, it has already left its mark on me. I can't help but cry when I hear it.
There is only one I have thing I got to say, 07 King.
Thank you for everything mate.
Heart of a warrior Soul of a champion may he rest in the upper world
Technoblade never dies
That was his promise to us
and now its our promise to him
Rest in peace king
👑🐷
It has been a couple weeks from technoblades death and I cried so much watching this
it has 27 days that he passed away, but it still feels like he’s there. i guess i finally understand the meaning of “ Legends never die.”
thanks for making the song, it’s touching😊
As I scroll through the comments and even, videos of tributes for techno I hold back tears that want to fall, I can't hold them in and it physically hurts knowing he is gone. My chest hurts physically every time I try to process his death. I keep telling myself "it's fake its fake" but deep in my heart I know it's not fake. I know it's not fake because of the emptiness in my heart, the hole that is there.
I honestly still can't believe it, there's this weird feeling I get constantly whenever I think about him, like... Some sort of fairytale hero I read about in a book and then I finish reading and there's this emptiness left behind, in the days following the news I had some weird dreams that kept flipping between reality and fantasy, where he was still here but then ripped away but then still here and then gone again, it's simply crazy to me that someone who I never had a direct interaction with yet had such a massive impact on myself and everyone in this community has left such a void that can't be explained nor filled by anyone else
May he live on in our memories, may we never forget what he meant to us
Legends never die
