- I can only find this song in its separate parts, and I love the full song as it plays in Chapter 10! I edited the songs together so it might be a tiny bit different.
I don't own Over the Garden Wall or anything associated with it! I just wanted to post a cool song.

I wonder how many people watching this cartoon knew that the guy voicing the Beast was a famous opera singer, one of the finest opera basses in the world.
Little late, but was he the one that did "You're a Mean One, Mr.Grinch".
Just watched the whole show and I suspected I knew that voice already, and what a surprise! He's my greatest inspiration as a bass singer.
I’m pretty sure you’re thinking of Thurl Ravenscroft. This is Samuel Ramey.
@@daddydaquan7102 I don’t think it’s Thurl Ravenscroft
Samuel Ramey also famously sang the parts of the Devil in Faust and Mephistopheles. He has an entire album of operatic numbers as the devil.
I think the creepiest part is that the child voices are probably still The Beast singing, because of all those freaky faces he has I'd imagine he can speak out of any of them being the eldritch horror that he is.
+exodus9001
probably. I mean, he seems to be made of bark that has the wailing souls of dead children trapped within it. So wouldn't put it past him; specially since when he gets mad or desperate he seems to start sounding like multiple versions of himself are speaking simultaneously/ echoing each other.
the **REAL** creepiest part is contemplating if the children's voices are coming from him, yet are still sentient; that may not just be manipulating their form, but their very being is bound to him, as well... the child's part seems to be "greeting" a new member to their amalgamation. the concept behind a legion or even a minos Grande from bleach also comes to mind.
Celeste 🌟 pensieri per aria You're welcome bby.

I think it's Greg singing in that part.
Holy crap, that actually sounds amazing
This song is sad but when you consider the fact that Greg chose to give up his life for Wirt despite how Wirt treated him, it's even more sad.
Mabel Ƥιηєѕ Man I fucking teared up when he said to take care of the frog and cried when I saw him covered in roots. Fucking wryyyyyyyyyy!!!
@@_no1rvanna i cried in the same moment. Why This mini series is so Perfect ❤️😭
legit i cried watching that episode, it was so emotional and to even think about it again, it makes me feel moree. this show is surrounded by mysteries of the unknown yet it feel so close to home😭😭
He really loved Wirt, and as a kid he cant understand that his brother is being horrible to him sometimes, he just knows that he loves him. That shit hurts so much
Greg is so sweet and courageous. It hurts so much
"Sorrow and fear are easily forgotten when you submit to the soil of the earth."
The Beast is the avatar of suicide.
He really is everything around him are thin references to suicide. People go into the forest and die, they turn into trees when they lose hope and give up on life, his song references that he can show them a way to be free of pain and fear if they just lay down and die.
Tuckinator inator “go into the forest and die?” Did you realize that’s a reference to suicide forest
@@lieutenantjacobin do have to split hairs? It's the same basic principle
@@lieutenantjacobin It also refers to dante's inferno, with the forest of suicides.
Death and despair
One thing I find very interesting about the beast is that his soul is a physical object, but his body appears non-physical, and you don't truly see what he is until you shine the light of his soul against his shadowy body.
your right about his body his soul in an physical object but his body is non-physical but what if that non physical body is his body because ch 10 showed his body
WitchHunter93 he is made up of the souls that are lost in the unknown wood.
WitchHunter93 he may have a physical body. Notice how he could hold the China cup in ep 10
Remember when the woodsman shined the lantern on him he was adlewood
The Samgladiator Fan
It is symbolism for how many people he has turned into trees and burnt.
The beast was so well done. He wasn't just made as some evil being that's a monster. They made him have a soothing and human voice. At first it seems like he's just a being trying to help with different deals but his true motives are shrouded in darkness like himself. That makes him seem all too human, and all too real.
Not that shrouded. He simply wants to keep on living and for that he needs souls, souls which he nurtures into soul trees of sorts that he uses to fuel his own.
I don’t think I ever thought he just wanted to help lol
I like that he has a good reason to do this, and is considered evil because of just the way he gets what he wants, is a Villain with a real motivation instead of just being evil, control the world or something like that
I see him as kind of a metaphor for Death, those who are “claimed” by him can’t ever return to the real world.
@@melodytheatre2887 well, the entire show is based on the death
the entire serie is a masterpiece, and the beast is one of the beast villians i ever knew, the perfect liar.
party pete
Yeah I really liked this series, the only problem I had was that I felt some of the episodes had to rush through their plots due to the short runtime of the episodes
Yup, he will always be the best liar of all.

@@videos4u100 could totally agree!
FlashakaViolet this episode is where the show TRULY took a 180 and actually shocked me. I actually thought Greg was gonna die, and that kind of stress isn't often used in children's tv. What made it so intense is that the show started out as super innocent and playful and slowly revealed how dark the unknown can be. 10/10
I really love the Beast - he is an amalgam of many myths and he gives a unique feel to the story. Plus Samuel Ramey playing what is more or less the Devil, yet again, is a very nice touch.
I’m with you there
~Grow, tiny seed,
You are gone to the tree~
that's probably not gone, but called
Isnt that creepier?
Its gone because kids are deouverd by the tree and there soul gets absorbed by the tree the seed is a childs soul the tree is ofcourse the edelwood
K, why not
Caine7ify *WE SAY LET IT GROOOOOOWWW"
Mean Ty let if *o o f*
The Beast is one of the most disturbing, evil and incredible villains ever IMO. I mean, look at the thing and at everything he does in the series. He is nothing but pure, primal evil. There is no other way of describing it.
the concept is interesting and creepy, admittedly, but I've only found him to be a lowly wrathe, at best. his actions are compariable to some lustful old witch, contracted to far darker powers in order to cling onto some semblance of a life by stealing from the youth of others... the real world bloody Mary is probably more horrifying, since she bathed in them simply hoping something would magically work.
I've read too much lore for my own good lol, but people have imangined far more sinister demons, devils, daemons, jinn, tortured lost souls, deities, philosophies, and even angelic hands of god, then the beast.
he's certainly a creepy, twisted creature, but he never holds any true power from what we've seen. that's why the main character kid (sorry, I don't know the story that well) just scoffs at him when he insinuates his investment in some item.
the genie from Aladdin sincerely holds more power/freedom than this creature. he's still creepy tho lol.
also, this is all taking into account the darkest possible implications I've seen from him, including useing the children's voices to sing, etc. twisted, yes. powerful? debatable. the most twisted? also debatable imo... the lich king for example actually seems like the more dangerous foe; the beast has an objective and a motive that he must protect, which will change his actions. the lich king, on the other hand, literally exists to destroy and kill, especially if he really is the avatar for nuclear fallout. he can't be reasoned with, while the beast depends on manipulating others to meet his personal motives.
+Brandon Bevill You do raise some very good points! I personally always found that his weakness was the entire point of his character. I think the point of this character was that he is very creepy, but if you do not allow him to get to you, there is nothing he can do. All in all, a dog whose bark is much worse than it´s bite. Something like: "Yes, all along this was what you feared. A complete coward".
He is dangerous not because of any special powersor great physical strenght. He is dangerous because he is an expert at manipulating others. It´s not easy to resist his temptations and not believe in his lies. His lies are very convincing and he manipulates people into boosting his own immortality all while making them believe that they are, in fact, helping their loved ones. Until the end where he is defied and his lies revealed, this was working pretty well for him.
My point is: he knows where he should strike. He knows how to use his victim´s love for his own gain. He is weak, sure, but he can get whatever he wants with just his words. He is not the kind of villain that uses brute force to get what he wants. He manipulates. He talks. And I quite like it! He is dangerous because he can so effectively manipulate someone. He may not be powerful but up until the end, his lies proved to be more than enough.
You did raise some excellent points, though. Always happy to have a debate over a character I like. :)
+Iuri Almeida I don't really feel like going in too much detail, but I actually see the beast as a chaotic neutral creature, being to the dead what death is to the living.
+Brandon Bevill well the beast is more or less an avatar of deprasion and suaside which is why the only thret he has is light or in other words hope and thats why he dosent use any real force on the kids but subtle manipolations so he is creepy and dangoures and creepy on a diffrent level
he is even worse if the unknown is actully hell or limbo
"She was never in the latern"
*"Listen, Woodsman. Listen To Me..."*
Imagine walking through a dark forest and then you hear this.
I'd run for my life.
I'd roll up into a ball and hope whatever is singing thinks I'm dead
If I ever walk through the forest and see someone imma give em a scare by singing this
I’d be scared for my life
imma make it a habit to sing this whenever i walk through the forrests after sundown
This song is just extremely dark and depressing , the most unnerving part is when they say "You are gone to the tree." It's as if the lost souls are literally being forcefully turned into tree's
because they are
Yea, in the actual series souls lost to the beast are turned into edelwood trees to be turned into oil and burned in the black lantern to fuel his soul.
OTGW THEORY:
"Grow, tiny seed,
you are gone to the tree.
Rise, till your leaves fill the sky,
until your sighs fill the air in the night.
Lift your mighty limbs,
and give praise
to the fire."
This song, sung by the Beast and possibly the souls he has taken in the past, sends a huge message of darkness of the show. The "tiny seed" could be that drop of hopelessness you feel when you are lost in The Unknown. The beast wants it to grow and grow so he can eventually make you apart of his forest. Eventually, when it grows enough, you are "lost to the tree". We see Wirt get "lost to the tree" towards the series' end when edelwood begins growing around him. However, Greg sacrificed himself for his brother so he would not succumb to this fate.
"Rise, till your leaves fill the sky" could mean how that helpless seed within eventually overcomes you until you are one of the edelwood- growing higher and higher to the sky within the Beast's forest to be chopped down for the lantern.
The "mighty limbs" may mean your struggle to fight against the Beast (actual limbs), but it's tree limb overpower you until you lose your entire hope and "give praise to the fire". The fire is, of course, a representative of the lantern. The edelwood provide oil for the lantern, and when you, and edelwood tree, are cut down and used for oil, you are giving praise to the fire. The fire of the Beast's "soul" that planted that "tiny seed" of lost hope in you and grew it.
(Just my theory of that particular part of the song)
This pretty much sums up what i was thougth
👏 👏 👏 give this man a medal
u just outdid the father of theories...
Precisely my thoughts, though you put it to words better than I could.
You should get a metal AND cookies for this 👏👏👏🍪🍪🍪
I will see you all in Pottsville!
You'll join us someday...
*Pottsfield
Hey at least the people in pottsfield seem happy unlike being turned into a freakin' scary tree and being cut down and used for oil to keep some malignant spirit alive.
+MyLatin1 From both of the intro and outro shots that are supposed to be Pottsfield, where you see Enoch at first gathering the pumpkins and then him popping out of the top of his big pumpkin thing with the other residents laying around, I kinda get that they're only awake for that short time. and in the intro enoch is making preporations for them. IE pumpkins for bodies so they can have their festival.
I live right next to Pottsville, PA...should I be concerned?
I'd visit the giant turkey.
bill cipher hides his creepiness with creepy humor, but this guy....he's just creepy. and terrifying.
the chorus (around 0:40) are literally the creepiest things ever. like, just, their lyrics. holy crap. the lyrics. that is really, really scary.
He uses charm and elegance to hide it, lurking people in with lies and false promises
It sounds more sad to me
Cypher: "Who the hell is this maniac? I like em."
[Beast just chuckles.]
I know I'm a bit late but there's a theory that the child voices are him(by which it's the souls trapped in him)

WHO IS HE LURING?????? That song is terrifying!!!!!!!
Such a innocent show in the beginning but then it became dark... Like goddamn C.N. Anything gets pass the cencerors.
Andii The Yandere The series was always inteneded to be dark. In fact, they cut out some episodes that were too dark for CN.
Uh it was dark since the beginning lmao
And that's great. I wish more cartoons would be like this one '
Rewatch episode 1. Just watch it. It might have lots of cats but it is very morbid.
Mouse Goldstein what the fuck was considered to be too dark for the final cut of this show? Holy shit now I'm morbidly curious just how far they would've gone if C.N. let them
If the Woodsman had ever gone into that tavern, he would have learned the true nature of the lantern and wouldn't have chopped down so many wayward souls. If he had ever gone back home, he would have seen his daughter was alive and well. His isolation and ignorance led him to his actions.
no, I think it was because of the Beast, she did everything she could to keep him away from the other people and from his house. The woodsman was sure that the death of his daughter was his fault, out of guilt he followed the Beast.
@@francescoelafro9684 The beast is male
Pretty sure it was an accidental typo @@fiddlesticks7245
Quite late for this, but isn’t it really interesting how the beast is seen mostly as a shadow? It is his soul in the lantern that makes the beast. You are unable to have a shadow without a light source. Even weirder how when the light gets closer to the beast, it shows his true form.
But only his soul light.
I’m kinda disappointed that we didn’t get to see more of this character. He’s literally the darkest in Cartoon Network. yet we only see him 4 times. And the fact he’s played by an opera singer makes it even better
the fact that he shows up so rarely makes him more unknown, and as such, more terrifying
think of The Lich from adventure time
@@wouju9600i have come near to shatting myself when i watched over the garden wall as a kid, adventure time didn't have the same effect
I dunno man, I feel like it's...well it's almost like the Nowhere King's appearances. If they're kept sparingly the audience can never feel comfortable with the Beast's presence.
There is a light for the lost and the meek.
Much like how the angler fish has a light for those poor fishes in the deep, dark oceans.
Like a predator preying on a poor hopeless prey
"Wirt....? I did it Wirt.....I beat the beast...."
In a way he did. The Beast's modus operandi is to drive people to despair and Greg refused to give in to despair. In the end, the only negative emotions he felt were guilt for stealing a rock, but even then he proudly declares he defeated the Beast and performed immature acts like eating leaves and making a "rock fact".
*sobs until I literally can't anymore*
@@thekeeperofpromise I know this is a year old, but in a way, the Beast still won. Greg refused to give into despair, yes, but in the end he seemed to accept his fate. He was resigning himself so he gave Wirt the rock in order to return it.
Since the Beast is the embodiment of suicide, it's fitting. Whether it was through despair, apathy or resignation, he wins. He still gets his edelwood tree. Another lost soul.
Seriously, who knew The Beast has an opera-like voice, sounds eerie but beautiful, or I don't know if the singing voice was The Beast's
Yep! His voice actor also does the singing for this song, Samuel Ramey, who's actually quite a famous opera singer in America.
I'm not sure whats weirder, me singing this to my niece when she gose to bed, or that fact that it dose make her fall asleep, well this song and Zelda's song of healing.
It is a pretty song with pretty lyrics... until you remember the truth about edelwood, and "grow tiny seed" becomes sinister xD
@@Nparalelo grow tiny seed line is a reference to the fact that the kids singing are lost souls burned into edelwoods and when another humans are going in The Unknown the seeds will grow and Beast will make they edelwoods and my theory is the line " Sorrow and Fear are easily forgotten when you submit to the soil of the earth" is a dark way to put people choose if dear ones spirit will disappear or you will be in the Unknown with the dark lantern all your life.
what's also interesting is that this song and song of healing come from mysterious characters
What I find so fascinating about the Beast is that what made him become an evil villain was simply the will to live.
The Beast is one of my favorite villains in all of fiction. Unlike regular villains who have powers beyond reasoning, The Beast doesn’t have any sort of powers and instead uses lies and deception to trick people into fueling his simple goal to live to another day. In a way, he’s like us in our world; doing every thing possible to extend our life while also deceiving people in the process. He is more terrifying as a villain in that way because it’s a simple goal, yet he will do what he can to achieve that.
My favorite version of this song. It sounds more foreboding and like a funeral song rather than a calling
The best villains have amazing voices.
Well, Over the Garden Wall's the Unknown, is always autumn. That represents a time of getting it together and cleaning up. The unknown is where you go between life and death. The people in the unknown are dead, but the woodsman said "we all have our burdens to bear" referring to probably the people in the Unknown because they died with unfinished business. At the end, everyone is content and finished with said business. So, the pure white, clean, peaceful wintertime represents being released into heaven. Everyone is happy once the wintertime comes. Seems like heaven. That's my theory.
The only problem with that is the woodsman is not dead in the prequel comics shows he's a living being from the beginning past yes but living none the less.
Lovely Mustache actually i guess that the change from autumn to winter represents the aggravation of Greg's and Wirt's state of hypothermia (once they had fell uncounscious into a lake/river at night). If you watch carefully, the atmosphere in the unknown is constantly turning colder, with the arrival of winter.
The unkown not only had dead people, but also the ones between life and death (like them). I think that if greg and wirt had stayed there for a few more time they would probably die too, as "winter" had already came when they got rescued.
+Afonso Canas Also, poetically, winter represents death.
Winter and autumn are my two favourite seasons
pottsville has zero unfinished business, all the do is being up dead people, give then pumpkin bodies and dance all day
this is my comfort song
THIS SONG IS MY COMFORT SONG TOO
this is my comfort song too
Over the Garden Wall is like the most serious and most well-written show on Cartoon Network
This ending was really emotional. I dropped a tear or two at the end when I watched this for the first time, well not gonna lie I drop tears every time I watch this finale.
Same! I never cry at anything but this show gets me every time!
Does anyone else feel like this song could be interpreted as a metaphor for suicide in a way?
Well, i mean you are right about that, after all the Beast make it's victims lose hope or die so it can fuel it's lantern
As someone who grew up Christian, hearing the kids singing sounds like something I'd hear at a church
Mr beast took planting 20,000 trees to far
Underrated.
lol
Mr beast = the beast. Confirmed
~Come Woodsman, I've brought you another Edelwood tree~
oh you wonderful mistake of nature...
Now imagine: An adult singing as the beast, a group of kids singing the tiny seed part and a guy performancing the tree(or a clip doing so).
That would be awesome, to bad I'm not good enough at drawing yet.
I got you fam
Its a song about the cycle of the dark lantern.. children planted to the soil, rise as trees as their leaves fill the skies, and alas, give its praise to the fire..

In my opinion the Beast is the dark part living inside ... the one that wants you to give up, to lie down and to succumb to the darkest of depression. Once it takes root, it will keep trying to sustain itself. And it knows you. It knows your motives, it knows your desires and fears because it is rooted inside you.
Defeating the Beast can only be accomplished by identifying what it wants/which desires you think you might have are yours but are seen through the perspective of the beast (which would be Wirts part) and then ... letting go what holds the roots (which is the Woodsmans part). He even cried when he did it, because it hurt to overcome. These roots go far and deep, so letting go is letting a huge part of yourself go with it.
I think the beast represented death as a whole. And the tree transformation represents a person giving up the will to fight against death, with no hope or point of escaping the forest of beast. While I believe the forest represented limbo in a sense, a place between life and death when going through a near death experience, and finding the hope and strength to leave the forest, choosing to fight against the beast, and refusing to become a tree are the ones that wake up and leave the forest.
Wart saved his brother from such a fate, by waking up and getting him real life help to prevent it. As Greg was closer to drowning to death than Wart was, thus why the beast caught him and began turning him over to his side as a tree.
It also explains within the song, a line singing 'when you submit to the soil of the earth'. Symbolizing for burial through death, and becoming one with the dirt and soil, and hypothetically becoming a a seed for a tree.
Yeah, I figured. I just wanted to put it into my own words. Also, I think Wart staying in the forest, represents what when they can't commit to either. In other words a coma. Until he either because one with the forest, or he leaves, having to accept his brother's date along the way. In other words, waking up or dying.
I find it so cool the voice/singer actor of the beast is a professional Opera Singer
Ikr
I want this song played at my funeral, mostly because one thing I've always told my loved ones since before I can remember is that when I die I want a flowering tree planted on my grave instead of or in addition to a headstone. I don't want my final resting place marked by a slab of concrete in a sad lot full of nothing but other slabs of concrete, I want something large, beautiful, and living to mark where my body rests. Because even if my body is nothing but bones, I'll still be there watching over them while simultaneously having the time of my afterlife. Catch me as a ghost haunting people with memes, screwing with paranormal investigators, helping lost children find their way home, and tormenting assholes like child abusers and rapists until they join me in eternity, only to personally escort them to the lowest circles of hell. Wow that got kinda dark.
Tldr: I want this song played at my funeral because I plan to have a lovely flowering tree as my grave marker and be a helpful ghost who guides lost children home, and the song becomes very sweet and heartwarming rather than creepy and unnerving if you listen to it with that in mind.
Amazing you are Amazing
That’s a really sweet and all but you do know this song is about leading children to their deaths and it’s pretty clear from the lyrics that that’s what it’s about I’m sure there’s an even depose meaning in here too
Even now Samuel Ramey has the devil's voice
For me, everything that is unknown has something, even if it is a tiny little bit, familiar wether it is familiar at a low or a high point. The unknown in this series is very very familiar somehow and we can't describe it
This song just gives so much emotion. It's really sad, but also really amazing.
I love that The beast, don't have super power like manipulating the reality or whatever, it's just like a normal being, like us, he's powerful on Lies
I always liked the beast, thought his reasoning was pretty cool. Most villions are doing evil out of greed or wrath but beast is doing it out of servival. If he doesn't make the elder tree, the oil, his lantern will go out, killing him. Its fun to think of there is anything he could have done differently that would have spared his life but still be moral. I like to think that he's a mediphor for nature, he's cruel but unbiased, he does what he must to servive like any creature would. He really does live up to his name, he is just another kind of beast, powerful but still just a beast. Plus if you live for as long as he probably has with the constant fear of death then you probably won't be very fond of people and have a few issues lol
I don't think there has ever been a better representation of the Devil in media than the Beast.
You guys should check out Samuel Ramey, the voice of the beast. He's actually a world class opera singer, known for plenty of other stuff.
I haven't even seen this series (though I'm sure I probably should), but man, that deep singing voice gives me goosebumps.
have you seen it yet?
0:36 *The onion cutting ninjas have returned..*
true, kookie
I am imagining the scenes in my head listening to this...
This is really chilling and downright horrifying. It's children consumed by the Beast welcoming another lost child, urging it to "give praise to the fire", referring to the lantern.
oh greg. he took his brother's place to the beast. he is so brave.
+BLUE QUARTS 1989 I think it was the beast's plan anyway, considering how cunning he is. to have someone like wirt who cared for greg who'd willing to carry the lantern
"Woodsman, i knew you would come. I have something for you"
What have you done
almost made me cry ...
PLZ MAKE MORE OF THIS SERIES
I think any more will be too much. We got just enough for it to be as good as possible.
oh thank you so much for uploading a full version. this is definitely my favorite song in the entire series
Im dressing up as the beast for halloween and im trying to learn the lyrics to this song so i can scare eveyone with my terrible singing skills xD
What's really unsettling and depressing is the end of the song. Like they're awaiting the day they can finally be set free from their tree hell
I listened to this song once, now there are trees inside my home and a lantern I need to keep lit.
This inspired me to make an oc based on one of the children turned into edelwood. He was a nine year old boy, Noah, who ran away from home with his dog, Mutt, because he had a fight with his mother and wanted to find his father's house to live with him. Eventually, Noah was losing his way, thinking he to follow the rising sun but not sure anymore. Mutt was doing his best to keep his master's spirits up, urging them farther, but not for much longer. Especially when the boy's food supply ran out. Noah inevitably collapsed, despair creeping in. Despite Mutt's best efforts, the boy would not move. So the dog stayed beside him for days. But as Noah grew weaker and weaker, Mutt knew he needed to leave and find help, or else his boy would die. Hesitantly, Mutt left Noah's side and took off in search of civilization. When the dog came upon a town, unable to get any resident to follow him, he raced back down his scent trail to convince his boy to come to the town. Mutt returns to find the remains of a felled tree where there wasn't before, Noah no where in sight. Terrified and distraught, Mutt sniffs all around the area, confused as to why the tree remains faintly carried Noah's scent. Unable to find him, Mutt begins traversing the entirety of the unknown for years and years. Even after his own death, Mutt didn't stop. Rumors sprouted up of ghostly howls and whimpers faintly echoing through the woods. The story that was assumed was that the dog's master was taken by the Beast, and man's best friend would search endlessly, even if he never found him. When the Beast was killed by the Woodsman, Noah's spirit was freed. Reunited at last, Mutt's hunt was over.
memento mori
Ha! Nice. I was going to turn the Beast into a D&D villain.
I think it wasn't the wisest choice to listen this at 1am
Thanks for the song and lyrics. I think the beast is as he is shown pure darkness. The beast may be different to every one. What does the beast mean to you?
To me, the beast will always be depression... fear and sorrow... he wants 'lost' souls to commit suicide. I used to think the chorus of children was 'good'. But now that I see the lyrics, I see that they are souls led to commit suicide and still think it is right to commit suicide and be dead all your life. I think there's a beast in each of our minds. Everyday when we go to work, we defy the beast.
Nah, more like submit to the beast and be closer to commit suicide.
A long time ago, I had a dream where I had to cross a lake and get to an island. I would jump in the lake and swim, but I would be dragged under the water. No matter what I did I couldn't resurface and the water would push against me, making it impossible to reach the island. For some reason, I knew I couldn't turn around and go back, so I kept swimming against the current, unable to breathe. I woke up from the dream drenched in sweat, mumbling frantically that I was dying. I was completely delirious. I knew I wasn't really drowning, but I was completely convinced that I was dying. It took me maybe an hour to calm down. I remember lying there, mumbling like a lunatic about how I didn't want to die, my heart racing a hundred miles an hour, my vision fuzzy. Everything about it was horrible.
I later found out that I had like a 110 degree fever and my mom was considering taking me to the hospital.
That’s crazy and all, but what does that have to do with the song? Also if you had a 110 degree fever you would be dead, any fever above 105 is fatal.
@@drews.9863 He is begging for attention.
You had a convincing story til 110 degrees. Lmaoo
@@blake2521 I don't remember writing this and I don't remember the specifics of the dream, but I do actually remember waking up from a nightmare in the middle of the night and freaking the fuck out thinking I was dying. It's happened a few times but that was the only time I had a fever that I can remember. Obviously wasn't 110 degrees. Probably 101 or something.
I do remember the sheer panic I had. Completely irrational. It was like waking up in the midst of a panic attack. I got up, turned on the lights, changed my shirt, drank some water, and still after all of that thought I was dying. Like, I wasn't rationalizing it as a stroke or heart attack or something normal. I was feeling pure fear and anxiety. I've had panic attacks before and it was kinda like that. Fuzzy vision, heart rate, all that.
In dantes infierno the people that died by suicide become trees that are left to mourn with the faces engraved
This song is a mood 💀
This is probably my favourite OtGW song of all time (and the entire soundtrack is gorgeous so that's saying something!) However did you get such a crisp, clean audio clip of the whole song without any other voices/sounds?
Probably a directors cut
I have a weird curiosity to this song.
the fact that the beast's victims turn into trees makes me wonder how many victims the beast has claimed. the whole thing is set (mostly) in a thick forest.
The beast is a pretty good singer one of my favourite Characters in this beautiful masterpiece of a show
I thought I would hate over the garden wall but one night it came on and I was to lazy to change it and now I love it. In the show when Greg was being turned into a tree and the children started singing I burst I to tears
Me over here just wanting a cross over song for both the Beast and the Nowhere King!
I love that in the end of the show, for all his bravado and his powerful music score, the beast is just a coward hiding from a lantern
I think the sthrenght of this song is that it is not just the Beast making a show Disney villain style, it sounds like a song from a mess, it even have the Classic kids singing
So true
This might be a weird comparison, but do you think giving into the beast is a metaphor for killing yourself from depression?
(Speaking from self-experience here, folks)
+Butt Munch Well I think this is similar to Dante´s Divine Comedy "The Unknow" would be purgatory, the beast would be the devil who preys upon lost souls, after all he burns the souls, praise the fire?
Taking into account that in Dante's Divine Comedy the souls of the suicides in Hell are turned into deadwood trees, this is an interesting theory.
+Butt Munch Absolutely, I'd say. The main warnings about the Beast, from both the Woodsman and the Barmaid, is that he causes peoples' will to 'spoil', which makes them give up and turn into Edelwood trees.
+Butt Munch How did you comment if u killed yourself from depression?
Actually i was thinking something like that, i mean is not that wirt kill himself but he was thinking to give up, gregg have the opportunity to go(maybe that was the heaven) but he prefer to say with his brother in the limbo, giving all the trust to his brother. The beast talk with the woodsman and say something like wirt was lost, i think that he refer he lost his desire for live, but then wirt wakes and save gregg, and actually he is the one who wakes first in the real life.
I need someone to make a music video with this song depicting the storyline from "Ori and the Will of the Wisps" it maps almost perfectly and gave the game an eerie feel to me despite the ending being positive in tone.
I get chills every time I hear it
The children are probably dead and turned into eldewood trees. Same with the faces on the beast, those are probably the children he’s killed. That’s terrifying
Beast: ah, woodsmen i knew you would came, i got something for you.
Woodsmen: what have you done?!
Beast: i got you a tree oil for you lantern.
Woodsmen: No, i won't do it!
Beast: you been chopping down soul all your life.
Woodsmen: I didn't know, i didn't know this is where oil trees comes from!
Beast: would it be any different, would just you let your daughter's soul go out?
Woodsmen: Quite or i'll cut your tongue out, don't speak of my daughter, she wouldn't want this. Now lets get you out.
(*Beast try to get the lantern until woodsmen stabs the ground with his axe between the beast and the lantern*)
Beast: I only wish to help you Woodsmen, you need oil or else you daughter will....
Woodsmen: I TOLD YOU NOT SPEAK OF HER!
(*Woodsmen fight the beast and the beast is laughing*)
Oh, holy night
I like how there are 2 versions of this. One with an accordion, and the lyrics being "who wander.."; and the other one is with a piano, saying "and wander...".
Just wow
The chorus singing i believe to be is the souls of the trees singing
That ain't a girl tf
@@WarrenFritzguest sorry I ment the chorus. Ima fix ut
masterpiece
I love how heavy his voice sounds with the that vibrator and bass, giving out the same vibe as the tree oil
Why I watching it in the night?!
This is genuinely the scariest villain I have encountered by far.
Does anyone else want a sequel to over the Garden wall? because I do
Me
Shiver me timbers this is really good
Low-key best villain in legit any series/movie
the lyrics are metal as fuck
when i read/hear word "wayward" i imagine this song
This song is so beautiful! The lyrics are so deep
i wached this episode and it made it me cry😭
