    After 7 years ago I heard this song when I was 10, I cried so hard. 5 years later I couldn’t remember the name I only know bridge in it and 2 years later I finally found it, now I’m crying.

  • @StainedRevenant

    Bridges are built for one purpose, to carry travelers from one side to another.
    Bridge-keepers have one job, to greet those travelers and decide which ones might be allowed to pass. But what happens when no more travelers come to cross over to the other side? The bridge becomes an idle object left to decay and rot, while it's keeper remains bound to her solitary purpose...one that is now wrought with loneliness.
    What then becomes of her, as she watches over the bridge people no longer cross?

    • @CannedPsycho-
      @CannedPsycho- Před 8 lety +4

      Then the bridge is destroyed and the bridge keeper can go. Unfortunately for Parsee she is in hell and that bridge will come right back.

      Indeed. Much akin to the punishment of rolling a massive boulder up a hill just to find out that you're at the bottom again once finished.

      At that point I would stop midway, get on the Boulder, and then roll down with it to see if I fall off or stay on.

      Quite clever indeed. I'm sure the gods would not have approved. Then again, in the Underworld, who knows how physics even apply...

      +CrimsonEbonyTears bah, who needs gods when you have yourself? Do something bad and the worst punishment comes from yourself. Do something good and the reward is something only you can provide such as the satisfaction of getting money.

    "Is this the true face of life? A cruel and deceiving, two-faced liar? What once I though was life, is nothing but an illusion, drowning me in a world of melancholy"... "Everything, everything is lost.... This world is nothing but a graveyard of dreams and smiles. One that lures and drowns everyone with despair and hopelessness...This bridge once full of smiles and happiness is now but a forgotten paradise. With only sadness and jealousy as my guide, I will cross this bridge. The bridge that people no longer cross".....

    "I was born, from the darkness. To stand here and to protect has been my purpose. No sense of past, no sense of present, just standing here. I look at the sky, seeing all of them flying happily. I long for it. Yearn for it. Not the flying. But the happiness. I am here alone without any sun. Ah, how i yearn for those warmth that has fled from my skin. How i yearn from those touch I lost long ago. Ah, how i yearn for those smiles. This yearning has become my poison. Slowly eating my feelings away. But I must not lose it as that is who i am. I live enduring such pain, unable to move on. Ah how i yearn i yearn. Before i become one with the dark... "

    @PunchyDonk Před 10 lety +67

    Torn from her past and forced into an ocean of tears, her cries silenced by the waves of painful memories washing away the shores of a forgotten happiness. The air she so desperately fought for was becoming even more difficult to grasp with every attempt to breathe became less painful. Drowning in a sea of despair and broken hopes and dreams, her memories are now warped and mistreated, just like her own very heart. She felt the pain of what a broken wish can do and envied both the living and the dead, forever standing on the bridge of what she longs for and what she simply cannot have. That is the infinite torment of the Green Eyed Monster...

    This really does express sadness, loneliness, and even the longing for grief in various ways. "Who.... Who am I entirely? What is this.... this... life? What is this "life" I live in? How am I to define it? How have I even lived like this, in my territory that I myself find scary to explore? All I am is someone given up to this hell down wherever this place I'm living is. I'm only slowly withering away into, not nothingness, but someone insane and crazy who will never be considered normal by anyone, someone who has always hoped to be normal and social, but then just given up to live as someone who you can only define as an insane one. I can't even hope for my old life because I've never even HAD an old life, just this miserably hell I live in now. How do people live such good lives, above ground, in the pure light and blue skies full of everything but the bad that lies down here, in who knows where? It seems someone is now approaching, I may be gone for a while, seeing and probably being killed by this random girl dressed in red, whoever the hell that is, so, goodbye my old self, who I refer to as "Parsee", I hope to see you again sometime, maybe I can contain you again like I used to after I am killed by whatever."

    • @Ayzev
      @Ayzev Před 10 lety +7

  • @Poprocks311
    @Poprocks311 Před 13 lety +15

    It almost sounds like a clock is ticking in the background. Parsee is counting every moment longer that she is alone, waiting for someone, anyone, to come. While sad, and lonely though, I hear what sounds like a soft hope throughout this song. The hope that perhaps every moment spent waiting will pay off, and someone will finally come...

  • @cwang668
    @cwang668 Před 11 lety +3

    This song makes you feel like you're lost. Lost in a dark place where nothing is, where you are forgotten, lost in the emptyness. Then the end of the song makes you see a spark of light in the darkness. There exists a person who cares about you, in the cruel world, a hope in the sea of sadness. That is why The Bridge People No Longer Cross is one of my favorite Touhou songs.

  • @selensewar
    @selensewar Před rokem +1

    Someone, please, build two houses on each side of this bridge and cross it daily. ;-;
    I love touhou community. It makes me feel feeling i've had no idea are in me. It makes me cry, without a fail, every time. I don't even know the context of the song, scene and character. Songname and actual music is enough for me to turn into a sobbing mess on the floor.

  • @slowkole

    why there so many long and complex coments in this video? wow..

    • @Nier2J
      @Nier2J Před 8 lety +16

      Because the song wakes up something in them. The song concerns Parsee, a character known to be somewhat "hateful", and this song is like . . . you know, the other side of the character. I know it's fanon content and all. But people are touched by that song because this is true. Some characters Zun shows are only known for one side of their personality. You don't know the rest of the story. This song inspired people to "understand", or at least to feel how Parsee can feel despite her jealousy and all, to know her by seeing her otherly than the "jealousy maniac" role. After all, fanon isn't only about shipping characters together or making fun of them.(A side of the fanon I don't like) The fanon side is also here to help us understand the characters from the serie. Zun introduces his characters, and our "job" is to develop these character the best we can. To understand them, and to make people understand them. People can dislike that. But some of these loves it, and that's why you see these comments.
      Sorry for the long post. But when listening to the song and seeing your post, that's the first thing that came in my mind and I had to say it.

    • @slowkole

      We are both hateful beings, despised by everybody...
      I used to be curious, what will happen when you separate a person from all their emotional support?
      Now I know the answer. One word, despair.
      Despite having people around them, they never know any love, from the very beginning
      Maybe they actually loved us, maybe they really do
      The other two poison are nothing compared to the third, ignorance
      With the power to create a horrible outcome despite a good will
      Oh well, who else could I blame, apart from my own bad karma?
      Perhaps I used to be such a horrible parent, being blinded by the three poisons
      Otherwise, what did I do wrong, to receive such a punishment?
      When, did being your true self becomes a crime?
      Till when, could I be free?
      From this hell, called "home"?

    Y'know, Parsee isn't a sad person. There are still plenty of people who cross that bridge and Parsee has no room to feel sadness. If she were dropped into the ocean of depression then she would hit her face flat solid on the surface of the water and remain there. Pretty comedic actually. Nah, Parsee ain't sad at all. She is an angry person who has nothing but hidden hate and fake cheerfulness for those who are around her. A Death Metal band would probably suit her better.

      the poetic and philosophical side of touhou fans, they get somewhat touched by this song and the character's story, which sparks inspiration in them to create some amazing speculations about her, or just a lovely poem that focuses on the sad sides of the character.
