You Will Know Our Names - Medley (ALL VERSIONS)

- As promised, a medley of all versions of You Will Know/Recall Our Names from the Xenoblade Chronicles series, including:
0:00 - You Will Know Our Names, from Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition
1:57 - You Will Recall Our Names, from Xenoblade Chronicles 2
5:14 - You Will Know Our Names - Finale, from Xenoblade Chronicles 3
8:10 - You Will Know Our Names - Finale (Climax), from Xenoblade Chronicles 3
(As a side note, for some reason, CZcams Studio keeps previewing this video at like 480p, even though it's rendered at 2560x1440, so hopefully it looks fine once it's up, but the audio quality is fine regardless.)
I'm still playing through Xenoblade 3 at a very slow pace, despite ignoring most of the side stuff. I'm very excited to see all the other musical and visual references to the series they've hidden. As of chapter 3, and aside from the obvious ones, I've already caught a couple of story beats that parallel 1 and 2, as well as some camera angles that directly parallel a scene from the first game.
And of course, the music is great, but we all knew that.
Thank you all so much for 1 million views on this medley!! I'm glad you all are enjoying it! I've got some more VGM remixes coming down the road, (and one from Plok which is out now!) but what else would you all like to see from me? More medleys? More Xenoblade? Let me know! 👇👇
More Xenoblade please :)

I would like some sort of mashup of jet set radio and twewy
So this is what Australians hear all day

Only in the bush
? The accents are mainly from the British isles if that’s what you’re referring to
@@Mollusc_music_and_memes It's not about the accent. It's about the "You will know our names" being the unique monster theme and how Australia has a wide variety of unique creatures animals/insects etc.
@@iroha_scarlet ah I see… the joke appears to have went over my head! (I’m autistic and slow with jokes)
When you want a flute in your soundtrack so bad that you make it an integral aspect of the game's plot
Such is an Off-Seers duty
to play the fire and the flames everytime we see a corpse
@@meimmakoto3224 hi fellow persona fan
more like the other way around
Custom made too
I love how these songs can either mean you're in a great epic battle or you're running away for dear life
I love how both of 2's specifically have really alarming beginning riffs, and unless you are strong enough stand your ground and engage the fight you'll never hear the main part of the songs
@@59hawks I mean, that's a distinct part of all of them. 1, X, 2, and 3 all have that.
Its more prevalent in 3 than anything else. The longer you stay in the fight the more you hear the flute, until by the end of the fight the flute is the primary instrument. And considering military flautists are used to honor the dead and send them off to a new life, it's a good way of indicating your victory as well as telling your opponent they can finally rest.
The best is when the rift kicks in right as you pop a chain attack. The thrill is unmatched
Usually both for me
The xenoblade team really just looked at the previous soundtracks and said. "You know what this rock orchestra style we got going on needs more? FLUTES!" And just proceeded to fill the entire soundtrack with them.
And they were goddamn right.
And I’m here for it.😂
And they did not miss
Well {Gresures to Off-Seer Flutes}
also this amount of Flutes is tame
if you want FLUTES listen to Atelier Ayesha's Battle Theme {also Xilaphone}
czcams.com/video/aPuaHfnZ9D0/video.html
FYI, they made custom flutes just for this game!
I realised while looking at the blade designs next to each other that both the Shulk's monado and Pyra's aegis sword are single sided, but Noah's veiled sword is double sided. the symbolism in this game is crazy.
It also works that Pyra's sword is single sided but Mythra's sword is double-sided. Everything is connected in Xenoblade
Yes!!! As i was listening i thought of the same exact thing!!
Well, when you take into account that Lucky Seven is also single-edged…
And Monado 3 is double sided
This comment makes more sense after the art book released with Noah’s sword containing both Flora and the aegis.
The Finale is so triumphant. Xenoblade went from a Japan only niche project for MonoliftSoft to a dramatic internationally known Trilogy. What a wild ride. And I’m so excited for the future
I seriously can't believe that a world exists where this franchise didn't even make it out of Japan. Would've been such a loss.
Hopefully, a Xenoblade X remake or remaster happens since it's pretty much the only Xenoblade game and Wii U game that hasn't come or has been made for the Switch.
@@JotaroKujo-gw6ng hopefully! They’re probably porting it right now
it's a wild ride, this passage of fate!
Thank you Nintendo of Europe for believing in this series.

Nice
Me too 😅
Been waiting for someone to make a version that smoothly transitions all three
It sounds just like one big song when you put them all together. I hope that Monolith Soft did this intentionally.
It however forgot the original version. Which should imho not be overlooked.
Yeah, the transitions are super slick! 👍
I've been waiting..... waiting for this day!

I think 1 shreds the hardest, but 3 is the most musically interesting. I am so in love with the fake-out at 8:37 into the key change, it's so next level.
The fake out could've made for such a badass accompaniment to a cutscene fight. I'm imagining Y getting ready to take a hit to the chest from Lanz's ouroboros form and as the fake out drops they split and Sena busts his kneecap with the hammer from below.
the three different songs make you eargasm on a spiritual level
Arguably a callback to counterattack, which does the same thing with similar notes
Key changes in xeno OSTs are undefeated
I also always admired the chorus at 7:42. Love how the flutes start out almost melancholic and then join in to form an even richer chorus than the first one
3's OST really has a LOT of 'little somethings' like this
im so sad xenoblade 3 has a special song for chain attacks. nothing brings me more joy than starting a chain attack right as the guitar riff kicks in, as time freezes and the music becomes more prominent.
That’s why I don’t really do it in these fights lol
One of the worst design decisions I've seen in a game musically, ever. Like, worse than the constant track shifts in the trial scenes in the Phoenix Wright vs Professor Layton game. Absolutely ruins the tension and energy of the fights. "You wanna see what we can REALLY do? Mess up the mood! Yippee!"
Yeah, XC1 has the vision theme interrupting the boss music a lot, but at least the vision theme is also a banger
@@drewbabe I disagree hard, chain attack theme is the best. It's really banger so I don't get why you guys hate it, just don't use the chain attack then.
@@drewbabe I think the reason they did it is because it worked very well in XCX. The overdrive theme was just out of this (and that!) world. And yes, even interrupting Uncontrollable
Let´s be honest You will know our names gets interrupted by visions all the time and that is WAY MORE ANNOYING
I absolutely love how the design of Noah's sword is a combination of the Monado and the Aegis sword, it really shows how 3 is the culmination of the Xenoblade series and puts the previous 2 mainline games together with themes and aspects
Ok, I just listened to this. And apparently, while I was engrossed in the shrear epicness. I forged a sword, climbed Mt Everest, and killed a Frost Giant.

Holy shit. I never expected all three themes to connect that seamlessly. They are all very distinct but together they make this big epic suite of awesome. Thanks for making this!

Glimmer: "Now that's a name we'll remember"
Matthew: "We'll definitely know their name....Finale"

Phenomenal.

I think Mio could be more mechanically interesting. There isn't really a character in Smash whose specific goal is to evade attacks. There are campers obviously, but that's not what I mean.
Plus it helps balance out the gender ratio (I don't personally care that much but some do so... woo) and Mio isn't another Swordfighter. Get some more weapon variety in there with her Circle Daggers.

@@wispliz3696 It's sleeping... but still taking in information from the outside world
I absolutely love all 3 of these themes. They sound so full of hope and optimism, while at the same time have the energy within them to let you know there's something going down. All 3 are excellent pieces of music. I love this franchise and can't wait for the next installment!
I’M REALLY FEELING IT!
NOW I’M FIRED UP!
OUR TIME IS NOW!
Lots of people seem to think XC2’s theme isn’t that great, but I’m currently playing it for the first time, and GODDAMN it shreds
Gahhh!!! The flow between the music is just great!!! I can just imagine them all fighting a big unique monster and then them tagging out and their music starts to play in their moments!
God now I am sad because that is just too fucking good of an idea to happen
you know it probably has been said a million times already but I can never get enough off the idea that the songs sound dreadful at the start, this shows that you're going against a strong enemy and if you only hear the beginning of the song that means you're probably not strong enough to face it but once you are, the song becomes triumphant to symbolize that you can win against a strong opponent. amazing soundtrack
The more of the song you get to hear, the higher your odds of winning.
Im just finishing my first run on the og xb on wii (that is also my first Xenoblade) and Gawd Dayum that guitar riff is killing me
There is nothing that riff can't hype up.
Play the one the switch, overall a 10x better experience
@@LilGabri94 No cash bro, and besides even if i could afford a switch, in my country is so damn expensive so... yeah not even near right now, but i hope one day...
@@f.b.i.agent69uwu89 dw about it man the game wouldn't even have been remastered if the original game wasn't goated
@@f.b.i.agent69uwu89 I feel you bro, I'm brazilian and basically 90% of my gaming experiences were from pirated games, I only pay for indie games and games that have/need online, otherwise emulators and cracks are the way lol
My favourite is still the first one, but special mention to that octave shift in the third, because holy hell is that good
Australia, where everything that's on the overworld has a unique name written in bold
Can't get over how good all of them are. Masterminds at monolith
They really make you feel like you can beat anyone. Such masterpieces.
So what's your favorite part of Xenoblade Chronicles?
Whenever this song plays.
This is peak epicness !
these are fantastic, but they're infinitely better if you imagine the party members from their perspective games being the ones playing the instruments. the image of noah and mio nearly bursting blood vessels playing those flutes is near and dear to my heart
Never though before that a flute could work so well on a metal song
Also I've never played a Xenoblade game, but might do it as well just for these tracks
It's worth it, trust me. The soundtrack is amazing and the story (especially the first one) is great
Look up some guides, on the gameplay, if you haven’t already. It’s incredibly complicated, and you need to figure out a bunch of weird things the game doesn’t make too obvious, to get past some roadblocks in your journey. Speaking from experience.
Xenoblade 2 has the best combat and very good story and world but a lot of flaws
Hey man I'm just curious here. Did you ever pick up the game? If you did how did it go?
Easily the best compilation of these themes on CZcams, the transitions are smooth as butter!
Thanks for making this :)
Dear lord these songs en-FRIGGEN-vigorate me. Like “it’s now or never!” From splatoon Kinds of adrenaline.
I expect an official version once the dlcs drops
Battle of the world tree?
Basically fighting against every blade and driver of the past in one ultimate showdown in the center of the world tree, including team shulk
With hero’s 3 has 7 party members. Xeno 1 has 7 party members. I’m just saying if they can handle 14 party members. I want a team Noah vs team Shulk fight. 7 vs 7

Be sure to keep the comments spoiler free, especially in regards to Xenoblade 3! It's a very long game and not everyone has had the chance to finish it yet!
Thank you I’ve been waiting for this
Shulk comes out and shouts: "It's Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Editin' time!" and then he Xenoblades on Rex or smth idk I never played Xenosaga
Spoiler, the protagonist uses a red sword.
Moebius comes out of knowwhere and says “it’s moebin time” and completely moebs everyone
...isn't the sword on the left a spoiler in itself?
Still a huge missed opportunity for them to call XB3's version You Won't Forget our Names.
My ranking: You Will Know Our Names (XC1DE), You Will Know Our Names Finale (XC3), You Will Recall Our Names (XC2). All of the games are fantastic and the music is phenomenal, this is just my opinion and how hard I’ve jammed out to each. So the first has that very special place in my heart when I’m in need of a confidence booster, and XC3 has climbed up there too.
Same, though I'd also put the OG You Will Know Our Names above the DE version.
@@XiaNaphryz Yeah the OG is good, but I much prefer the DE version for the added brass. The OG had synthesisers that sounded vaguely like brass instruments but didn't have the natural oomph. So I'm really glad that the music got a full redo with live recordings instead. Trumpets and Electric Guitar playing together have become a minor staple of Xenoblade's musical footprint and it works really well.
@@vickienorgrove5480 understandable, for me the more rock-leaning arrangement of the OG version overrides the more synth sounding instruments.
I feel like the original is probably my favorite too, mostly because I’ve heard the most of it. I haven’t heard Finale in game yet, but I like what I have heard. I’ve never played 2, so I don’t know it very well, but it sounds nice.
I think I just found the most civilized discussion about these themes to have ever ended up on the internet.
I’ve never played xenoblade, BUT GODDAMN THIS IS THE SICKEST BATTLE THEME I’VE EVER HEARD
A perfectly smooth transitional epic of all four of the songs! Thank you for doing this!
Im really feeling it!
I just realized Xenoblade 1 and 2 xenoblades are one edged swords was Noah's the game where both worlds have combined into one as a double-sided blade it also looks like a really good fusion between the two styles that's a neat little detail
They will know our names!
Finale has really grown on me. I love hearing the similarities between the three.
That finale is a true masterpiece
Nintendo continuing to make absolute BANGERS without giving an official way to listen to them
A little prayer for Uncontrollable
you know that you have an amazing song when you remix every time a new Xenoblade game comes out and all 4 of them are freaking masterpieces (The definitive edition version is my favourite song of all time though).
Those transitions are perfect
I’m so happy this keeps popping up on my CZcams timeline. I’ve listened to it over a dozen times. Brilliant
I'm noticing so many musical references too! Sometimes I don't even notice for a while but my ears sure do. Love a video on the references once youre done!
Finally getting ready to dive into the series for the first time tonight, Im excited😆
How did you like it? Just curious. Me personally, I've fallen so deep in love with this series.
@@tengoku9623 Not too far yet but its definitely one of my favorites so far for sure. Glad you loved it all as well, I gotta keep going haha
@@starbutter2730 glad to hear. Yeah they are super lengthy but they are so good I don't even mind. Definitely my favorite game series of all time
@@tengoku9623 Thats so sick to hear, ye thats okay as well, I dont mind either

0:00
IT'S CHANGING FORM!
I'm really feelin' it!
This is the power of the "You will know and recall our names"

@glossyhin2485 I'm sad they reduced the amount they shout this. Playing the game day one release was so funny. "YER DONE!" "THINK YA CAN TAKE ME?!"
Reyn and Lanz will always be hitting that yoinky sploinky for us
What I like most about You Will Recall is that if you're good at the game and have the right party setup, your chain attack starts right as soon as that first lull in the energy of the song begins (2:40), and you reach tend to reach overkill by the time the song picks back up (3:02). Almost like they composed it knowing that. You Will Know is still the catchiest song, though, I just wish XC1 didn't ruin it with the vision theme constantly.
How does it fit so perfectly together
They build off each other so well!!
i use this when im revising for my maths exam or doing homework i pretend my work is a unique boss or something my productivity has increased alot
I do this as well
Wait….what!!?? You’re just like me!!!
we finally know and recall their names
Can't have a rainbow without Reyn baby!!
I can always hear Shulk's battle dialogue in my head when I listen to these.
Just imagining all three protag's fighting together againts a comon enemy in the upcoming dlc!! XD
Wish the Pre-end part of the climax was included. When the flute starts looping over and over when the monster is almost dead it gives me such a rush
Xenoblade music SLAPS!!!
I’m not going to listen to YWKON “Climax” from XC3 yet because I haven’t heard it in-game yet (or at least I don’t think I have because I don’t know except what it is), but I’m glad this is here
Edit: I thought it was some kind of story song but it just apparently plays when a UM gets to half health. Huh.
It plays when a UM’s health bar is lower than 50% so I’m sure you have
The One-Winged Kong is right; it's an extension of YWKON - Finale that will start playing once a Unique Monster is halfway defeated
@@DawnOfApples ah ok
@@sephikong826 thank you
@@sephikong826 if a UM's health bar is below 50%, the only music i'm hearing is the chain attack music

Spoiling nothing, the Finale both feels and sounds like victory after everything this series and creators have gone through. You can "really feel it" lol
First song definitely feels different without vision break theme right before beat drop

Lol valid enough. I'm on my 2nd playthrough of XC3 currently
Ahh, now i can finally read the comments after 1 and a half months and 160 hours of gameplay
You see a frog in your back garden
You: oh hi little guy

Let's rock N' roll for Xenoblade Chronicles Medley Themes.
I don't even follow this series, this song just slaps.
I AM REALLY FEELING IT
My favorite song 3 times in a row? Sweet!
I really looked forward to hearing the solo for XBC3 since 1 and 2 taught us each game would have a badass track for the tougher field enemies...
And honestly while I love Finale, it isn't badass...I have no idea what that solo is but it's amazing and made me tear up inexplicably...its so nostalgic sounding
Do not forget their names.
Imagine in one of the DLC tracks ties all of these together, I would die 😭 😆
Really enjoyed this medley, though my two gripes are that you cut of YWKON-Finale (Climax) a little early and that there’s also a small 5 second segment that loops right before you kill a UM.
I really wanted to include those bits too (I had the audio file for the second one lined up and everything) but just because of the way the "chorus" of the song starts on a syncopated beat, it would've had a really jarring transition. (Basically a huge cymbal crash and the start of a guitar solo would play for half a beat and immediately cut out) I'd have to look closer at how they do it in game, but based on the context of when they play, there's a good chance they just cut it in on the next available beat regardless of where you are in the song.
Sorry about that!
