Fun fact: Lyn, the singer, doesn't speak a word of English. That's why some of her pronunciation and annunciation seems a bit off, like what you noticed with "tin man". She was getting coached both on how to literally sing the lyrics, as well as how to perform them in terms of emotional delivery and emphasis. Her performance only becomes even more impressive knowing that!
I have been a fan of persona for soooo many years and I am just now learning that its “heartbeat for a tin man” and not “heartbeat for a demon“
@Extra spicy Chicken same
@@extraspicychicken4044 i thought it was hunting for demons
@@extraspicychicken4044 lol same. Tin man makes so much sense!
@@extraspicychicken4044 lol I was so shocked when I first watched a lyric video. I was like "wait. She's not saying demon?"
Noticed that you were kinda shocked when the song stopped abruptly. It's a game battle theme which means it needs to be able to smoothly loop back to the beginning. Battles can take quite a while so this song may need to loop many times while still feeling like one song. It's one of the things that's unique video game music, the composer needs to marry up the beginning and end of a track.
The singer wasn't very successful before this. She has a really deep voice for a Japanese woman, so it was hard for her to find work when the expectation is to sound higher and more pop. She sounds like a black woman when she sings, but for the more Jaz focused sound track of Persona 5, it worked. She was discovered by the composer in a Jaz club. I've seen interviews with her, and she is extremely grateful to the composer, and is really appreciative of her fans. She worked her ass off and had everything against her. Now she sings sold out concerts. I really hope she returns for Persona 6. Usually with each game the composer works with a different singer, so each games sound tracknis entirely unique.
Yeah I don’t think she’ll come back since they always do a different singer for each game universe
Also, it’s because they look for a new one everytime that they got her. I like that it gives more people a chance to get a persona composition to them
Even tho there's a slim chance she'll be back in P6 (even if i want it too) there are new P5 variation games that are coming pretty soon especially the mobile one which is confirmed to have her sing new songs for that version!!
i thought she was black woman at first
@int3rst3llar_duck I did, too. It isnt unusual for composers to use American sinhers if they plan on the music to be sung in english.
As an addition to this song, it's noted that while this is a climactic battle theme, unlike a lot of games where the theme is assumed to be the boss' theme, this is the protagonist's theme. Prior to this, all of the area songs are a reflection of the bosses of each stage while the battle theme remains that of the party. This is the first time where the terms of the game are dictated by the protagonist instead of being reactionary. The story is a culmination of his efforts in getting to this one point so that he can look at the villain dead in the eyes and stake his claim. The lyrics are also phrased in a way that reflects the theme of the game itself. Of course, when this theme is used for the bonus boss, the lyrics change in meaning from "this is my one moment to shine" to "Dude, are you TRYING to kill me?"
For the part about being relatable, a primary theme of the game runs a lot with the theme of "I had to go to prison to become a criminal" and "you have to get your hands dirty to get the job done". Unlike the previous two games where the protagonists were squeaky clean, this guy has a track record with his ticket out being a literal revenge plot.
As a cool aside as well. By the lyrics, it could be assumed this is the protagonist and the boss where this plays for the first time basically debating each other.
@@TSLsmokey Spoilers because I word dump, I apologize in advance:
...
I would argue it's not since the song is about someone that is punching up. The palace is formed from someone that is assured of their position and are built on smugness. "Last Surprise" plays during battles as a break in the ambience to highlight that the rebellion is happening right under their noses. When "Life Will Change" plays, it's their calling card theme that spells out that they have flipped the table and are ready to face the villain. This change in cognition is also represented by the fact that the song overrides both ambience and battle themes, meaning that change is inevitable; either you win or you die. The villain themes are built into the area itself and you hear it throughout until the end because at that point, they are aware that the house of cards is crashing down. Going down the list:
King, Queen, and Slave: The theme of a complacent individual that is so assured of his position that the theme has no rush. It's devoid of any real intent and is only focused on carnal pleasures as noted by the seedy "risque" undertones.
A Woman: A somber theme that sounds as if you are in a mausoleum... because it is. The entire palace is built on the life and blood of artists that are condemned after they proved useful with the only thing to remember them being a passing image and their work on display. All reaped by the owner of the museum where stolen art is housed.
Price/Price Reprise: A relatively upbeat theme that gets flipped when you head underground. The trickery of an easy life up top where things seem all fine and dandy before he gets you with the real subterfuge. The bop of the first part of Price also sounds like the music you would use in gangster/criminal movies as a way to introduce them in an upbeat way before things get ugly.
When My Mother Was There: A theme that lacks malice and while melancholic, still seems to be a soothing theme... because the palace leader is not actually out to kill you and actually invited you in. Added to this is that it is a soothing theme in a desert full of horrible creatures because it is meant to calm the visitors as if to tell you that the palace leader wants you to succeed and is ringing true despite the palace trying to tell you otherwise. Fittingly, it's the only main game palace where you get a party member instead of putting someone in jail.
Sweatshop: A sharp contrast from the other themes, this one is a complete shift from the jazzy theme to a very synthetic beat as if it's disregarding the listener... because it is. It doesn't care because the leader doesn't. You are literally beneath him as a robot that should be functional, not heard. It's also the fastest pace of the themes to show the grueling nature of what his mindset entails.
Whims of Fate: The first theme in the game to have vocals which is a key distinction from the other palace leaders in that there is a clear defined message. This reflects the fact that while it is all about cutthroat gambles in the courtroom, unlike the others, there is clear intent behind the palace itself and while it is still subconscious, she CHOSE this path instead of being driven by it (every other palace leader is defined by their palace whereas hers represents her means to an end). This distinction is important because her desires are at odds with her identity and it almost seems like a mantra to trick herself into persisting down her path despite the fact that she may not even agree with it. It's also the only palace leader to willingly make a change of heart without getting it stolen because she rediscovered her drive.
Ark: While it seems fairly generic in terms of an area theme, it is actually a dark reprise of Tokyo Daylight, the overworld theme. The contrast is key in that while overworld represents the daily lives and hustle of Tokyo, Ark is meant as a personal message that Tokyo is his.
Gentle Madman: This theme is one that is built on contrast. The notes are beautiful and it SHOULD be uplifting... but it seems wrong because the undertones drag it down so that it unnerves you. It represents the belief in goodness built with the wrong methods.
This culminates in the dual themes of "I Believe" and "Throw Away Your Mask". This is the only palace where the thieves and the palace leader are fully aware of each other and are able to meet head on. This not only lets both of them have voiced themes that are diametrically opposed; one cannot be heard if the other is allowed to persist. The former is the message of the thieves telling the leader to back off and let them live their lives while the latter is a plea from him to stop resisting. The Latter is somber despite the message because the leader truly believes that he is helping and that the sad act of putting down the thieves is for the greater good. On the other side, "I Believe" is an uplifting callback to Life Will Change where it isn't just a challenge, but a proclamation of why they value the change despite the difficulties.
@@machdude3366 Interesting. And no worries about the dump, I appreciate the massive amount of information and always love learning more about the songs and how they can be interpreted.
No, no. The protagonist really wasn't looking for revenge while everything happened. He just hurt emotionally for how his life turned, but he want to show himself and the world, he wasn't wrong for trying to defend the weak. Still, The villain you first hear this song with is the one who turned your life upside down, and he is the responsable of many wrong things, the public want him, but this is your chance to strike down the biggest evil in the city, but overall this is your chance to let him and the entire city know that is fine to stand agains injustice, for all who suffer in silence. All you have been fighting was for this point, it's your change to make a change so go and take it, make a rivers in the desert, an oasis for the weak. Thou, of course it would also be good to make that bastard pay, but i never feel like the protagonist was acting for revenge in mind.
The theme is about people who is suffering because of things they had no control, getting the backlask of society, just for doing the right thing or wanted to help someone, all this just because some bastards in their high horse had your number so now they stand up to not let the abuse continue and let others who suffering they can also stand up.
@@TSLsmokey More like de-beating each other. Dude's BUFFED in this fight.
I love the fact that this plays when you fight one of the final bosses, yet the theme is actually YOUR theme, and he's fighting you. Such a dope way to slide in a awesome theme for a protagonist.
Props to Ben Franklin for coming back to life and writing such banger lyrics
I was looking for this comment
i just beat persona 4 earlier today and saw his name in the credits
LOL 😂
Not gonna lie, you recognised the lyrics way better than I did on my first listen. I'm pretty used to hearing English in a Japanese accent, but I had absolutely no idea she was saying, "oasis in a singed land" until I looked up the lyrics.
I always thought she said "hunting for demons"
I thought it was 'strange' land.
I thought she was saying sieged land
Here's the lyric for Rivers in the Desert:
It's now or it's never, and I've got to
Make my decision
This time it could be my moment
Is this a mirage or a chance to fulfill my mission?
A river in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
A heartbeat for a tin man
Oasis in a singed land
I'm keeping the balance, but I'm standing
On razor's edge now
Move quick or my life is over
One strike, just a feint, then ...
I'm outa his field of vision
Don't ask why I'm ready but I'm ready to
Strike him down now
A chance at a new start
There's no time for indecision
A river in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet
Now we need it:
A heartbeat for a tin man
An oasis in a singed land
Remind us what we're here for:
Creating new life
Creating rivers in the desert
My heart is a furnace,
(It's) Hot as hell in my world of conflict
One goal is what keeps me going
Take back what I lost to ...
The bosses of greed and fear, yeah
Don't ask why I'm ready but I'm ready to take
Them down now
The time for a new start
Is constantly drawing nearer
A river in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet
Now we need it:
A heartbeat for a tin man
An oasis in a singed land
Remind us what we're here for:
Creating new life
Creating rivers in the desert
When a cool drop of water's all I need
Gotta clear my head of anger and greed
A place to refresh heart and mind,
Can I find
Some time in
Rivers in a dry land
The last ace in a lost hand
When the hope of new beginnings burned our feet
Now we need it:
A heartbeat for a tin man
An oasis in a singed land
Remind us what we're here for:
Creating new life
Creating rivers in the desert

Persona 5 is a JRPG, but the actual game has very intense moments of combat that absolutely warrant a song like this. If you ever get a chance to play it, please do, because it is a BLAST.
I wasn't expecting Knox to react to music from the Persona series. Scratch that off of the bingo card!
Persona is a Japanese RPG series that is known for really good dungeon crawling and turn based combat and obviously bopping music! It's a really great series. Persona 3 and 4 actually recently got re-released for modern consoles! So the timing of this reaction is actually really well-timed! Lol
What drew me to the series wasn't the combat or music they were just bonuses. I was really interested in the real life social aspects. Going to school, making friends and hanging out with them, getting a girlfriend, taking exams etc. It's like the Sims meets Final Fantasy lol. Was very unique.
Not to mention persona 5 is apart of the shin megami tensei series.
@@GG1315 SMT ftw!
“…then you got hot women… Looks like anime.”
Hilarious.
Honestly this game deserves a play just for how artistic it’s music and design is even if you’re not an anime fan.
And then you find out the games recurring theme is sexual violence towards children.
@@DamnDaimen yes it is. Just like violence against children is also a recurring theme in Japan and other parts of the world. The game is a critique on Japanese society in case you hadn’t figured that out.
@@DamnDaimenBeing this dense is so rare, it’s could honestly be considered a superpower.
Glad you enjoyed it! The Persona game series as a whole has always had solid music, but in my opinion, Persona 5 takes it to another level! This song also happens to be what's playing while you're battling the climactic boss that the game has been building towards, so not only is it a great song, but it's also played at the emotional height of the game which elevates it even further!
Thanks for the reaction, and I hope you'd be down to react to other Persona 5 music in the future!
Not only did P5 take it to another level, but Royal proceeded to take it higher still
@@phntmthf5505 And then Strikers came along and blew our faces off with more fantastic songs and some rock remixes that slapped way harder than most of us were expecting.
@@masonhenderson0221 That it certainly did. The Warriors-style games have a habit of producing osts that slap several times harder than the games they’re based on.
I think the OST from P3 is more up his alley and would be so much fun for him to check! Couple of tracks off of this soundtrack are ENGRAVED in my head after the 200+ hours spent in this game
This song kinda is a fusion of elements from all the themes throughout the game. They melded them together flawlessly great capstone to the game.
Not necessarily a fighting game, but this is the song that plays during the penultimate boss fight
Not gonna lie, the first time I heard Lyns voice I didn't expect it to come from such a tiny woman. I played this game when it released years ago and I'm still listening to the tracks
His ability to decipher the Engrish on first listen is astounding.
For real. I know the lyrics and I still struggle to understand some words. No hate to Lyn; the fact that she sung this entirely in English despite not speaking any English is impressive as shit.
@@SiilanPies I don't know what Atlus was on when they decided to make these Japanese women song a language they don't speak a word of, but I will say that they're getting better about it. Lyn and the P4 were good at enunciating and making their accent sound more like a stylistic choice. Yumi Kawamura(P3 Woman) sounds good, but man, understanding what she's saying is way harder than the other two.
Lotus Juice's pronunciation is damn near perfect, but his word choice is kinda purposefully Engrish-y to appeal as a sound rather than be grammatically correct, at least if I recall an interview he did correctly. He speaks pretty fluent English.
Really? I think she sings it clearly enough to make out what she is singing 90% of the time
@@SonicMegaKing That's cause Lotus Juice, while Japanese, grew up in America from what I remember, hence being fluent in English
Some people are just better at English than others.
He would LOVE the persona 3 soundtrack. It’s full of rap and edge vibes
I'd love to see his reaction to kimi no kioku. Easily my favourite song from P3.
Lotus Juice is an amazing rapper for sure.
@@SiilanPies my favorite ending is definitely Brand New Days, is more sad but calm
mass destruction definitely. also persona q - laser beam. it's short but it's sweet.
Deep breath deep breath is my favorite!
Hearing and understanding the lyrics, and knowing when this song plays I almost love this song even more. It's such a triumphant song for my favorite character from the game.
What I love about the writing of this song is that it can either be sung from the perspective of the protagonist or the antagonist, depending whether you interpret the words as either coming from a place of selflessness or narcissism.
Very thematic for where the song is used.
Dude that analysis was hella on point. If we didn't know it any better, one would think you played before. Fun Fact: When you are unsure whether it's an anime or a game, that is because Persona is essentially Anime: The Game. It is almost like playing an anime. And hella stylish to boot. It is very much a game about rebellion. Rebelling against society. Rebelling against villians. Against expectations. And it ends by killing God with the power of Friendship and the power of "Fuck you, that's why."
You should absolutely react to more video game OSTs in general!
I really love how you break down the lyrics, i dont see many reactors do that. I’d love to hear your interpretations on the song “Throw away your mask” from Persona 5 Royal!
Ay yo, thanks for reacting to this fire song and breaking down all the little amazing things about it! Persona 5 is a game, and this track in particular plays during one of the final, most emotional boss battles of it! The first phase has an instrumental version, while the later phases switch up to this vocal version you hear now. ouo
I think at its core, Rivers in the Desert is about making the impossible happen. It's the story of an underdog always on the brink of losing it all. Not just the battle, but by letting themself get too caught up in the fight and being like the villain. That's what I think can be taken away from it without playing the game, at least. 0u0
Very solid analysis. You got the gist of the song and the game's feel with your interpretations. I'm impressed you were able to pick up so much of her lyrics. I've been listening to this song for years and still can't understand her.
So this song is from Persona 5 as you already know, this is based on around the main in the front with his mask who is known as Joker, who is able to wield multiple personas. The big character in the back is known as a persona, The Gentlemen Thief Arsene. Essentially this song is used to represent all the characters struggle in one way or another who are also friends with Joker. His friends are (in order met): Ryuji, Mona (the cat), Ann, Yusuke, Makoto, Haru, Akechi (also his rival and sub-antagonist). Fun fact all their personas in the 5th installment are based around thieves. While Akechi also uses Loki (based on Nordic mythology).
The line you were curious about was " a heartbeat for a tin man." I'd imagine it being a reference to wizard of oz as well as being a good line.
like 4 of my favorite music reaction channels have started doing Persona 5 reactions lately and I am loving it. This game's whole OST is phenomenal.
list them lol. Ilove persona 5 I'll watch more reactions
All the persona games have incredible songs and ost
It’s nice to see you can appreciate this song in a vacuum (I assume). What elevates this song from good to amazing is the context in which it first plays in the game. I always felt that it’s the combination of the song itself and the context in the game that makes it so hype, making it less obvious to get excited about it you don’t have that that context. But I’m happy you found appreciation for it regardless!
Once you realize what this song is based around and where is placed in persona five it makes the song even better
The Persona OSTs are SO GOOD! I can really suggest Last Surprise and Beneath The Mask from P5 and Mass Destruction from P3.
Persona 5 is a pretty successful JRPG(Japanese Role Playing Game) and it has combat, but it's turn based so you take turns in battle. You can get advantages for an extra turn tho and turn the tables on the enemies but this song Rivers in the Desert is a song that plays I think in the second to last boss of the game.
Persona 5 is known for its great music track and great story, as well as great characters and stages.
This song is basically to hype up the boss fights against the toughest enemies
100% would love to see more video game ost reactions, there’s so many good ones out there.
Hey Knox I’ve watched a few breakdown videos of yours and I’m so glad to see this posted. Persona is one of my favorite series and they have some amazing soundtracks. This song is one of the best in the game
Every persona game has a genre of music, persona 5 is acid jazz. If you want some rap, go to persona 3.
yeah mass destruction would be a great thing to see him give a listen
Babybabybabybabybaby
@@allenharper2928 yeeeeeeee aaaahhhhhh!!❤
man i love persona 5, its such an incredible game, and easily has one of my favorite soundtracks! if you keep on the p5 train, i highly suggest you listen to whims of fate, its such a good song! great video as always ♥
Great reaction hope to see you react to more tracks from persona 3 4 or 5 they all have amazing tracks
You actually made this reaction video the same day I finished Persona 5. The timing man! You should do more Persona music
It's crazy how he pretty much perfectly describes the context just by analyzing the song, despite knowing literally nothing about Persona. That shows not only how perfectly written the song is, but it's a testament to his own skills as an artist.
Persona 5, especially Persona 5 Royal, the definitive edition, is an INCREDIBLE game.
Might be fun to watch a playthrough or even just play the game.
If you want to play it, however... I'd have to suggest you don't waste a second of time you are given.
It's on a calendar based system, and you'll only have so many days to do what you have to.
If you haven't played it yet, I highly recommend it. The extended version, Persona 5 Royal, is my favorite game of all time. They recently added it to basically everything. So if you have a modern console, you will likely be able to play it.
The context really elevates this song. Its already amazing but when you go from phase 1 into 2 and the song, which was previously just bgm kicks in with the lyrics and you just ascend the hype.
I really enjoyed this - you had a good balance of both just listening and letting us see you react and pausing to explain parts you liked or found interesting. Subbed :)
I'll echo the other user who suggested some Persona 3 tracks. Mass Destruction is the most obvious choice, likewise the opening theme/Burn My Dread, Deep Breath Deep Breath, A Deep Mentality (Lotus Juice Remix) and for a choice without vocals The Battle for Everyone's Souls.
Other than that, if you haven't listened much to Big Boi's solo work post-OutKast, would heavily suggest that too!! General Patton, Shutterbugg, In the A, CPU, Mic Jack, Kill Jill, Fo Yo Sorrows, etc etc.
You know, I met you with your ERB reactions and I gotta say I became a huge fan of your content (specially your reactions) but when I noticed that you’re ALSO reacting to a Persona 5 song you are now one of my Top Tier channels, tksm
I'm surprised to see you react to this tbh... I LOVE IT, that has to be one of my favorite P5 songs and Lyn is such an amazing singer. She knows nothing about english but she still sounds great when you compare her to other japanese people trying to sing in english.
On your free time I fully recommend you hearing the whole OST for the game, it's a masterpiece. But it would be even better if you get to play the game. The way music is used in the game (and the lyrics that come with it fit beautifully. It also has an amazing art-style that will make you appreciate everything even more.
I think listening "Lotus Juice" (the singer for P3) would be incredible. He has some great bangers and a really "retro" way of rapping. It's 100% worth your time.
I hope someone from patreon sees this and recommend it
You should play this bro ! music hits hard ! , this is a good reaction ! made my day haha. i hope you can get some more reactions of persona 5 songs, they are really good !, i recomend whims of fate or Last surprise.
Awesome reaction Knox! Really enjoyed watching your reaction and analysis of it!
OMG! Please react to more of the Persona Ost!!! Also I would totally watch a letsplay of you playing this game!!!
If you keep going with these, the other big tracks are going to be "Wake Up, Get Up, Get Out There," "Life Will Change," and "Last Surprise. The first one is the game's opening theme, the second is almost like a response to it that plays during the final push before reaching the bosses, and "Last Surprise" is the standard battle music.
Fascinating how the music clearly resonates with you, you understand the themes and vibes they're trying to get across. Yet you still manage to come across as almost, dismissive of multiple genres "I know nothing about the game or the anime, whatever it is"...
Immediately followed by "It's very relatable, you can pick up on the story, be entertained by it, you can tie in to it..."
i am really impressed on how you nailed the thing of the music, the meaning, the achieving the impossible
Dude you nailed the theme of the game! This game is relatable on SO many levels and this song showcases that.
Man, knox is just hitting all my favorites lately. Knox, you need to play it if you like it, but it will be at least 80 hours! But one of my favorites and should be enjoyed if possible
And so it begins!
I always love it when i see new people react to Persona music, especially from 5 or Royal.
I strongly recommend u check out more of this game's music, or even the remix from Persona 5 Strikers, its remix, its faster paced since the gameplay goes from turn based to fast action and the music reflects that.
And there is a anime as well if u are interested ;)
I'd love to see more Persona OST reactions. Especially for stuff like Heaven, Whims of Fate, or Mass Destruction
Thanks. I show this to mt+y friends and family, but they just shit on me for it. I still feeel inspired by its musical and lyrical elements, but you broke it down much better than i could. Loved your openminded review.
Of course if you have time I would definitely recommend playing this game. The Soundtrack/story is just 🔥. I literally played it for the first time last year and I really wish I could have that experience again to just go through the game for the first time and get all those feels again!
Good reaction Knox appreciate the content
This particular song is used in the major boss fights of this game. So yes this is a fight song as it were.
The entire soundtrack is amazing. Love Persona 5!
Fantastic game and all the songs are absolute bangers
Not subbed but this popped up on my feed (into the games). And yeah when your talking about the metaphors of the song is basically the theme of the game as your turning the life of the protag around for the better + rest of this soundtrack is great too.
Persona 5 has the best battle themes and I will prolong fights just to listen to them!
Was I the only one screaming "YEEESS!!!" anytime he mentioned the distortion in the music knowing that is a core theme in this particular game?
Persona always had amazing music. Ever since I have been playing since Persona 3. So many amazing tracks. People out there sleep on video game soundtracks but I would say OST for games is SUPER important. It could make or break a game.
That's one recommendation I clicked in an instant
If you haven't already, listen to Mass Destruction from Persona 3
It's a really awesome rap and my favorite battle theme 😄
life will change, other p5 ost , tell even more about the game even not say a word about the history of the game, and yes is a game , and yes i am a big fan
Holy shit, dude, without any prior knowledge at all you absolutely nailed what the song is in the context of the game and its specific point in the story. "Chance to turn things around" could not be more accurate.
This is the first video I've come across of yours, so I don't know if you react to video game music often (I'll check out your channel after I watch this video!). But if you do, or want to, I would highly recommend some tracks from the Xenoblade franchise
Again I have every single song for this game on my playlist 🤣👍👌
Video game! (Also an anime, but primarily a video game.) This is the boss-battle theme for one of the emotional climax points in the story. Persona music tends to go hard in general (Shoji Meguro, bringing the composition A game), and P5 in particular is funky as hell. "Last Surprise," the main battle theme, also slaps.
Meguro has said before that the in-game music, when it has lyrics, is deliberately written in English to be less distracting to the Japanese players - the singer's voice becomes another instrument. And then the English-speaking players get to rock out while they're playing. XD
One of my favourite games and soundtracks!
Just love her voice shes really good
the fact that dude guesses the moment where this banger plays in the game... What a talent boi thats amazing!
"The Baddy" in the back is actually kind of the alter ego of "Phantom of the Opera" in the front xD
When I first heard this song I thought she said “a heartbeat for a demon”, I later realized that she said “heartbeat for a tin man”
Yeah man! We do create those rivers in the dessert!
"I don't know what that little bat cat thing is up front on the left." 🤣🤣
You are absolutely correct the song is about making the impossible possible.
Oh it's both and it's amazing.
Just wanted to pop in and say this is the big bad boss theme, so it has to go hard
"i love this distortion"
oh boy do i have a funny story to tell you
This game is one of those rare ones where the soundtrack is one of the best parts of the game. Sometimes i just let the menu music play in the background while I do stuff
ahhhh the final boss theme is so goood 😌
I love persona 3 4 and 5s osts
Ive never heard the other games osts
This song is absolutely *_FULL_* of bars. _The last ace in a lost hand_ is one most people point out, and I agree, but in the second and third chorus, _Now we need it_ just hits a different region of my soul, every time, without fail. Most likely to do with how the game has culminated to that point, but I digress.
It’s funny you keep mentioning how they like the distortion they keep adding. In the game you are fighting adults distorted desires by “stealing their heart” and “making them change their heart”. Cool little detail that both people who have played the game and those who haven’t can get.
Yeaaaaa, i love that song
this was the album of the year for me. Incredibly fucking slept on music.
Love your vids. New sub here
When the boss comes in but the player's theme plays. Hypeeee
So the thing you see in the background with wings is called a Persona. It's basically your internal rebellious spirit. Every persona is unique to each person and not everyone can have a persona.
What’s fun is this song is more about the antagonist then who you are playing in the game. Same goes with the song in Persona 5 Royal - Throw Your Mask Away.
That one would be an interesting one to react to. The song writer is Lotus Juice who writes quite a bit of rap songs for the series.
Yo you gotta do Daredevil next from Persona 5 too!
Would love you to react to the twins fight this actually comes from or the finial boss fight that it's in too....
Persona 5 is an RPG game. IDK much about it, but I know it's entire soundtrack is perfect. I also know that the people in the picture are part of the Phantom Thieves. Don't ask what that means.
Did you do Hamilton some time ago? Nice of you to react to this but I wanted to know your background, I love when people that doesn't know what persona is, the listen to all the songs
Now you gotta react to Life Will Change from Persona 5
