Glory to Mankind. Save files are temporary, emotions are eternal.

Me: NieR can't hurt me anymore AmaLee: H A

Nier honestly has one of the best soundtracks ever. By the way, who here teared up when they heard the choir in the end credits in the game?

The Japanese singer cried when singing this song, and for a good reason. This song is powerful, not only in the context of the game, but in the lyrics as well. And to have two amazing singers make their own version of this song, we’ve been blessed.

So glad this song is still getting attention years after the game came out. Nier Automata moved me in a way that no video game has since I was a kid, and this song was a big part of it!

SOOO honored to be a part of this! Thank you so much for having me! 💖 (If y'all haven't seen the Epic Anime Medley we did together, that's on my channel now!)

"Do you have any interest in sharing this song?" [YES] "If you pick this option, you will lose all your emotional stability. Knowing this, do you still wish to share this to someone - a total stranger - in spite of this?" [YES] "You worked hard to get to equilibrium, to recover from the feels of this game...but you will cry once more from this song. Do you...still wish to share?" [YES] "Some will say that this will be meaningless, that all this you are doing is for show. Do you still wish to share?" [YES] "Very well. In exchange for your support, I will share this song to the world." Amazing work, thanks for the feels trip down memory lane

After so many hours of gameplay, seeing the stories of the androids for 3 times, learning things that were hidden and hearing this song during the bullet hell at the end, getting help from all the others who sacrificed everything brought many tears to my eyes. It was the least i could do for them. I hope that my sacrifice helped someone out there.

“2B and 9S sacrificed everything why? Because the whole world is rooting for you!” Thats the message i left.

i never quite realised… how *beautiful* this song is.

The despair I felt as I couldn't beat the credits, the hope I felt that you out there helped out little old me, the shock I felt when I realized your saved data was the sacrifice, and the fleeting hope that whatever future is ahead for 2B, A2, and 9S will be one they'll secure by their own hands... This song has been one hell of a rollercoaster for me. Anyone else felt this way?

This is so pretty! I love the harmonies.

Had a blast working with Peter on this song! Stream it for FREE on Spotify 🤍 Add it to your relax playlist, trust me 🤍 We also did an EPIC ANIME MEDLEY over on his channel, so go check it out! 🔥kzfaq.info/get/bejne/i7qjZKaZm7ytgX0.html

It's amazing how that end credits mini-game really makes you feel you're apart of something so much bigger. Everyone who was there before you, strangers from around the world returning to a place by your side. Each one willing to sacrifice themselves for you so you to can stand were they stood, a moment of victory, before you yourself willingly return. Relinquishing all you've fought so long and hard to achieve. To continue to fight along side another in their time of need so they too can stand where you stood. All of us that got through that section got through it because we stood together. Thank you for standing with me.

Who here left a message at the end? "Go! I'm right behind you!"

Before playing Nier: Automata: This is a pretty song! After playing Nier: Automata: MY EMOTIONS!!!!!!

I'm ready for Neir replicant, who's with me?

Oh man, the combination of Peter and Amalee's angelic voices is truly breathtaking. I love this song soo much and I would love to see more collaborations like this in the future. just simply beautiful

Amalee's music is wonderful

....And then the tears come back. Beautiful duet and........great now I will relive this pain again once Nier Replicant comes out. Still amazing duet cover guys!

No matter what song LeeandLie sings her voice is always perfect

AmaLee and Peter Hollens, the perfect combination!

You know a video game was good if you get chills from the opening chords every time.

"We are perpetually trapped, in an never ending spiral of live an death."

I’m so glad she did a cover of this song. Nier Automata deserves WAY more attention than it gets. It’s a really beautiful and emotional game and everything about it is so amazing. Details, story, soundtrack. Absolutely beautiful.

When so many people have lots of expectations from you then you feel like you have to carry the weight of the whole world on your shoulders

This song never fails to make me cry. Going through that last fight through the credits... all the people who decided to help a random stranger like me... The pain of every act of the game, to a climactic, hopeful ending... This song has a special place in my heart.

Nier/drakengard has one of the best video game ost. I’m so happy you did weight of the world ;-;.

It’s now been four years since I’ve finished NieR:Automata. It hurts, it still hurts.

I keep coming back to this song so I can simply sing along. It always causes me to tear up, but it's so..... cathartic to do so. If I wasn't clear enough with my first comment on this masterpiece, thank you so much. Both of you, Peter and AmaLee. For sharing this with us.

I rarely play single player games but I randomly downloaded NieR Automata from game pass after recognizing it as something I had seen a trailer for years ago and had forgotten about. I knew nothing about NieR when I dove headfirst into Automata. Now...let me you tell you guys. I played it for like a week straight until I got all the relevant endings to see everything and I refuse to ever play it again. Why? Because I feel it would devalue such an amazing experience. It was genuinely a life experience that I'm going to remember for a long time. There was a point where I no longer felt like I was playing a video game. The story, music, and emotion culminating with the intensity and pacing towards the end...it felt like I was playing art. It was just beautiful. I've never been moved by a game like that in my life. This song still gives me chills, no matter who sings it.

My 1st fav game of all time! i remember cry like crazy and depressing several month. nier the game that no one win.

NieR: Automata currently holds the position of my favorite game, and the one that hit me in the feels the hardest. and the soundtrack just made it hit harder. the memories just came back in force when I listened to this. Great work to the both of you.

I finished this game 2 weeks ago and this game consumed my soul and heart since. An absolute masterpiece!

why am i imagining 2B and 9S singing this at the end of the story

I feel like I'm losing hope In my body and my soul And the sky, it looks so ominous And as time comes to a halt Silence starts to overflow My cries are inconspicuous Tell me God, are you punishing me? Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes? This is my redemption song I need you more than ever right now Can you hear me now? Cause we're going to shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I wish that someway, somehow That I could save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Maybe if I keep believing my dreams will come to life Come to life... After all the laughter fades Signs of life all washed away I can still, still feel a gentle breeze No matter how hard I pray Signs of warning still remain And life has become my enemy Tell me God, are you punishing me? Is this the price I'm paying for my past mistakes? This is my redemption song I need you more than ever right now Can you hear me now? Cause we're going to shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I wish that someway, somehow That I could save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Maybe if I keep believing my dreams will come to life Come to life Cause we're going to shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I wish that someway, somehow That I could save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Still, we're going to shout it loud Even if our words seem meaningless It's like I'm carrying the weight of the world I hope that someway, somehow That I could save every one of us But the truth is that I'm only one girl Maybe if I keep believing my dreams will come to life Come to life.

YES!! I'd honestly love to hear you cover Lost in Paradise, the ED from Jujutsu Kaisen.

God I love this song and Nier: Automata. This is just an absolutely incredible cover.

My new favourite game of all time. It's such a profound work of art

*By far... this is, in my opinion, the most powerful performance you have ever given.* @AmaLee, and as always @Peter Hollens, your voices and range in music has such harmony that it makes this experience all the more magical... This song alone and the choice of lyrics emphasizes the struggle that 2B has to go through for the sake of 9S and her own survival, that even as an Android, 'she' is still just 'one girl' that can't do everything, and that now she's even willing to pray to God to show her some way, some path, any choice that is the best for her and her situation in a world so big and ruined by war... Listening to this, I just remember that scene where we see that flower bed location in night time, where it just feels so peaceful and so detached from the woes of the game, which itself has such an ominous and eerie serenity to it... Love from Indonesia and keep up the good work!💕

I cried when I played the game. I cried once again just now. Thank you for this.

This is amazing! It has already broken my replay button!

Even if you haven't played the game. This song can still make you feel

I'm speechless. This cover blew me away.

The way you guys chose to present the singers and production names like 70% into the song is very reminiscent of how Nier presents the title card after route B lol. That was a good throwback feeling, amongst the tidal wave of other feelings coming in

...I should REALLY finish this game one of these days, shouldn't I? This cover was amazing, hats off to you both!

We world is weightless when we are all together to carry it

Never been this early, I love this song a lot ❤️ I started playing Nier this year just to hear this in game.

Such a beautiful cover with AmaLee and Peter Hollens. One of my favorite songs from her Unity album!

Amazing cover as Always this is one of those songs that sticks with you for life it’s Tragic but also gives a vibe unwavering hope in a hopeless situation it gets me emotional every time.

it really speaks to the power of a games story or audio when a single song can bring up all the memories with it and the tears that were there.

Its a tragedy that I can only like this video once

Hands down the most impactful cover I've heard to date. You both make for an incredible duo. Both of your vocals in this are phenomenal. And I hope to see much more where it came from.

I always cry when it comes to this part 5:23. The shadow of 2B starts to disappear and what remains 9S's bag hang on 2B's katana. It looks so beautiful yet so sad. It reminds me of the death of 2B and 9S 😔😔

Jesus christ this is so good , you can hear the tears sound effects even when you pause the video

When I first heard this song I started crying it instantly reminded me of my cousin she was getting over using drugs and alcohol as well as fighting cancer but she was sadly taken from the world thank you for this song

This song was so beautiful like it's so beautiful, I am actually crying right now as I am typing this like this is a song in which I really can't hold back my tears. I know everyone is going through hard times as of last year but I know that we'll get through this and nobody can do it alone.

Beautiful harmonies. Bravo to you both.

Peter Hollens has a really comfortable voice. I could listen to it all day.

This song made me cry so much, the messages, the credits that are itself a battle, man I can't, I just can't, this game is a precious gem

This game was one of the most incredible gaming experiences I’ve had in a long time. I jumped into this game expecting a fun hack ‘n’ slash action game and I got that, but I left with SO much more. I’m so happy I got to experience this title. And man, what a beautiful cover, you two!

WHen a song gives you shivers in the first few lines. Truly well done.

Why am I just finding this? Beautiful!!!

I'm grateful for those sacrificed their data to help me out you will not be forgotten

This song made me hurt when I heard it a the end of that game. Seriously it was one of the first games that ever made me cry because of this ending and I'm proud to say that lol.

I had thought that a quieter, less emotional singing style would be appropriate for this song, but that idea has been changed. I love the way you guys sing it too! I am a Japanese speaker and English is not my strong point. I am using a translation tool to comment. Sorry if there are any funny expressions.

Everyone told me that NieR had the best music. I doubted them. Months later after finally playing it -- and after sacrificing my saves -- I'm STILL listening to the music. Glory to Mankind!

Hearing the cords is already making me cry, this last song was truly a gut punch. Like this game is one of the best games ever, just for making me go through a emotional rollercoaster

I started crying... This audio...Visual... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa😭

Both Replicant and Automata were so beautiful to play, if there was a mind wipe I'd play them again in a heartbeat to relive the whole adventure again, do much emotion impacted me on both games, Square Enix did an amazing job with these games.

Your a brave one to attempt this, it's such an example of what sounds tracks can do. Idk that anyone can really truly make this compare to the original.

I cry hearing this song every time

WOW this came out of nowhere. I can't believe you made a cover of my favourite song from my favourite game ever. Thank you SO MUCH. What a beautiful cover!

"I've had my share of pain too. But, its okay."

I'm currently on my first playthrough. Finished Route A so far. This is becoming one of the greatest games I have played. A masterpiece.

I never knew how powerful this song actually is until now

One of my most awaited cover from you, your rendition with Peter is really great.

Finally got around to seeing this... AmaLee! You and Peter both sound so good! (And yes, I've seen the Epic Anime Medley - you were flawless in that).

I get chills everytime I hear this song no matter the version

Your duo Amalee singing it perfectly. Your voices is perfect match for this song. It is perfect!

I’m a huge fan of you and Peter Hollens! This is a beautiful song!

Wow 😭, that was pretty music!😭👏👏👏

It is simply beautiful, this only breaks the simple base of the melody I started to get a tear and now with the lyrics I am like the Niaraga waterfalls crying non-stop.

She's always been amazing

your voices was so amazing i teared up :'

Both voices work really well together. It is amazing. Probably some of the best duet I have heard in a while.

How have I missed this after all this time? I’ve been a fan of this song and Peter Holmes’s for years. Absolutely incredible.

This is so beautiful!! I hope you'll do more collabs like this in the future

Holy shit I may love every version of this song to exist, but damn this was beautiful. It felt like I was listening to the song for the first time again.

Thank you for this, and all the comrade who sacrificed their save files.

im not crying you are!

Omfg this is breathtaking 😭😭😭

I NEVER THOUGHT YOU'D COVER THIS SONG, AND NOT TO MENTION A DUET! BLESS YOU BOTH IT SOUNDS AMAZING :DD

I'm not crying, you are!

OMG OMG OMG YES YES YES! I absolutely love this song! I swear, playing NieR: Automata in 2019 was defining for me. That was an emotional rollercoaster of a year for my family, and I play this song whenever I feel rather sad.

It’s... IT’S BEAUTIFUL!

great!! ニーアオートマタ大好きです！ 声も素敵です！ ファンになりました！

I'm so happy to see this amazing collab! I was watching the Patron release of the epic medley a couple days ago and dancing along in my seat, and then this came along and slayed my emotions. That's a whole roller coaster y'all took me on, and I'm so here for it.

Had this come on as autoplay and gadamn, I don't even play the game but this cover is so good

This is ecstasy, i love this song!! And its even better now with your mesmerizing voice ♡
