    This is a remastered extended version of the beautiful track “Anakin’s Betrayal”, made with the remastered Star Wars soundtracks released in 2018 by Disney. To make this extended track I used of course the remastered version of “Anakin’s Betrayal”, the unreleased track “A Path I Can't Follow” and the remastered version of “The Immolation Scene”.

      "Aay'han" and "Anakin's Betrayal" are my two favorite works in the entire SW 'verse *sighs* it's always the sad stuff that I'm drawn to the most. This is a stunning compilation that evokes the saddest depths in my heart in remembrance of Etain and her beloved Dar'ika. May the Manda keep them...

      Agreed, though to be fair, it's due more to the Clone Wars cartoon and games like Jedi Fallen Order why Revenge of the Sith has gotten better over time. There's alot more context and depth concerning the rise of the Empire, Anakin falling to the dark side and Order 66 that truly makes it one of the most tragic events in Star Wars lore.

      Liam O'Neill All have sinned and so all are worthy of death and deserve hell, for God’s standard is perfection and none of us could meet it by doing good deeds.
      Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
      Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
      Romans 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
      But God loved us so much that He sent His Son to die in our place as a substitutionary atonement for our sins. He is the only way to Heaven that God has provided. If you believe in Him, then you will be saved.
      John 3:16-18 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”
      John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
      Acts 4:12 “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”

      @Salmon Oh look! Another prequel hater who insists that only the originals be considered canon!
      Have you ever considered that A New Hope was badly written with terrible dialogue (that the majority of the cast found cringey) and created unintentional plot holes that Lucas hastily filled in in Empire Strikes Back?
      The galaxy was ignorant of Vader and never understood him. Kenobi never understood Anakin's reasons for betraying the Jedi. He simply tells Luke what he saw- that his father was seduced to the dark side because it fuelled his lust for power. He didn't know that Anakin had only done it out of sheer desperation to save his wife and had been manipulated into believing that turning to the dark side was the only way to do it. He genuinely believed that Anakin had submitted himself to the servitude of the Sith.
      Vader was not truly evil. He had destroyed everything that was close to him for nothing and so lived in constant torment as his feelings of shame, guilt, regret and above all, anger, at what he had done ate away at him. He lived in a mental and physical prison, chained to the dark side and unable to escape. That was until Luke's resolve to redeem him reminded him of his former self and reignited the spark of good within him that everyone else, Sidious included, believed had been extinguished long ago.

      the chips add a certain level of tragedy to the clone characters when get fleshed out, but when watching the movie the first time, it's not hard to assume it's the clones conditioning and loyalty that makes them carry out the orders. Solders have done worse.

    When I hear this I cry. I cry for the destruction of the jedi. I cry for the pains Asoka Tano and Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda went through. I cry for why Anakin went down this path... It was once said jedi don't give the lives of thousands to save one. Anakin gave the lives of nearly 10,000 of his own kind, to save one girl. And he killed her anyway. Obi-Wan had to almost kill his closest friend and brother. Asoka had to watch her most trusted become her worst enemy. During order 66 and the great jedi purge, it turned brother against brother. Friend against friend. In those times, it was harder to live then it was to die.

    It saddens me when people hate on the prequels for the CGI, questionable dialogue, and mediocre story-writing. They might not be wrong but they are blinded by hate (ironic) and therefore fail to truly appreciate and understand the story of Anakin Skywalker.
    The prequels (at least Ep. 1 & 2) might be 'bad' movies... but they tell an absolutely exceptional, emotional story. The story of Darth Vader will forever be one of the most tragic and well-developed background stories in Cinema history.

      It's not hate, I think. I was born in 1972 and was a teen during the 80s when Episodes V and VI hit the cinemas. That and Indiana Jones, I still remember the day I saw. The impact was unforgettable. The prequels were good, like you say, but nowhere near as impactful, at least in my opinion. Of course it has to do with the fact that, back then, it was a spectacle unseen so far, while today there are many similar movies. But to overcome this fact, they had to do something groundbreaking, which they did not. The prequels are good sci fi movies with a rich universe, no more, no less. But they are not what the originals have been. If you are a millenial, you probably can not understand an old head like me.

    Pain. This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker, forever.
    You threw it all away to save the one you cared about the most, for you feared her dying. but in the end you betrayed her too, and it was you who killed her, in a fit of anger, and that anger turned to hate as your brother, not of blood but of bond when he asked you to stop. You should have listened.
    Now you will suffer, as a jedi told you long ago, fear leads to anger which leads to hate which leads to suffering.
    Deny it all you want the part of you that is darth vader was not some demon on your shoulder but was always a part of you.
    It is you.
    Maybe you had died at the end of that duel against the man you once called brother back then and that you were simply in hell you think to yourself often. But you know, that too is a lie. Because hell wouldnt let one of the dambed torture the other dambed.
    No, You live on, a sad, pathetic old shell of a man who does nothing except carry out the will of the one who took everything from him, except that's another lie, it was you who took it away from yourself. He mearly pointed you towards this path, you could have said no at any time but didn't. You brought this all on yourself

    This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker, forever:
    The first dawn of light in your universe brings pain.
    The light burns you. It will always burn you. Part of you will always lie upon black glass sand beside a lake of fire while flames chew at your flesh.
    You can hear yourself breathing. It comes hard, and harsh, and it scrapes nerves already raw, but you cannot stop it. You can never stop it. You cannot even slow it down.
    You don’t even have lungs anymore.
    Mechanisms hardwired into your chest breathe for you. They will pump oxygen into your bloodstream forever.
    Lord Vader? Lord Vader, can you hear me?
    And you can’t, not in the way you once did. Sensors in the shell that prisons your head trickle meaning directly into your brain.
    You open your scorched-pale eyes; optical sensors integrate light and shadow into a hideous simulacrum of the world around you.
    Or perhaps the simulacrum is perfect, and it is the world that is hideous.
    Padme? Are you here? Are you all right? you try to say, but another voice speaks for you, out from the vocabulator that serves you for burned-away lips and tongue and throat.
    Padme? Are you here? Are you all right?
    I’m very sorry, Lord Vader. I’m afraid she died. It seems in your anger, you killed her.
    This burns hotter than the lava had.
    No…no, it is not possible!
    You love her. You have always loved her. You could never will her death.
    Never.
    But you remember…
    You remember all of it.
    You remember the dragon that you brought Vader forth from your heart to slay. You remember the cold venom in Vader’s blood. You remember the furnace of Vader’s fury, and the black hatred of seizing her throat to silence her lying mouth…
    And there is one blazing moment in which you finally understand that there was no dragon. That there was no Vader. That there was only you. Only Anakin Skywalker.
    That it was all you. Is you.
    Only you.
    You did it.
    You killed her.
    You killed her because, finally, when you could have saved her, when you could have gone away with her, when you could have been thinking about her, you were thinking about yourself…
    It is in this blazing moment that you finally understand the trap of the dark side, the final cruelty of the Sith -
    Because now yourself is all you will ever have.
    And you rage and scream and reach through the Force to crush the shadow who has destroyed you, but you are so far less now than what you were. You are more than half machine, you are like a painter gone blind, a composer gone deaf, you can remember where the power was but the power you can touch is only a memory, and so with all your world-destroying fury it is only droids around you that implode, and equipment, and the table on which you were strapped shatters, and in the end, you cannot touch the shadow.
    In the end, you do not even want to.
    In the end, the shadow is all you have left.
    Because the shadow understands you, the shadow forgives you, the shadow gathers you unto itself-
    And within your furnace heart, you burn in your own flame.
    This is how it feels to be Anakin Skywalker.
    Forever…

    John Williams is able to make people emotional through beautiful and iconic melodies. That's why I love so much this music. I think the revenge of the sith has simply the best ost of every movies. The soundtrack of the movie is a masterpiece, especially this music, which is my favorite one and probably the best thing I listened in my life...
    Star Wars isn't only a saga, it's a myth. And it wouldn't be without its iconic musical themes.
    Thanks John Williams.

    Star Wars truly has some of the best music of any franchise. Especially the Prequels. Anakin's story is heartbreaking and the music just makes it even more depressing

    I loved Revenge of the Sith as a kid in 2005 for all the action and the general storyline. Fifteen years later, I love it for different reasons; an incredible tragedy about a man manipulated into losing everything and everyone he ever cared about, left only with his crippled body and hatred of everything and everyone around him.

    “I’ve tried to fight the darkness within me. I fought it with all my strength and it overwhelmed me. I thought i had people at my side, People i could count on... But no one was there. I fought this thing Alone for weeks on end to the point it almost killed me but now i realized, The Darkness in my head,in my mind, in my dreams, The Person who treated me like a slave... Was my only friend. It cared about me in the wrong way... So i embraced the dark side, I let him guide me down that path and now i am haunted by it but i made my choice to join it... I am now one with the dark side and i can not leave it nor will i.”

    My take on prequels vs sequels:
    The prequels introduced new lore and a new storyline to the franchise. The rich universe of Star Wars was explored throughout the three prequels - from Mustafar, to Coruscant, to Felucia, and don't get me started on the Clone Wars (which I count as a prequel in a sense). They answered our questions of what happened to the Jedi, what happened to Darth Vader, and how the Empire rose. Even though there are some thing I don't like too much, each issue resolves itself for me at one point or another.
    The sequels, while introducing new lore to Star Wars, didn't feel fresh, or original. they seemed to repeat old storylines and cliches.They screwed over some of our most loved characters, as well as completely disregarding the EU. I see that as a disrespect and a final "Fuck you, let's see your work burn, Georgie". In my eyes, ignoring the EU was Disney fully taking over Star Wars, practically yelling, "Your work - it's our money now, George. The EU seems too hard to copyright, so kiss years of work goodbye."
    So yeah, prequels for the win :)
