What impresses me most here, is how much the narrator's rapping has that specific narration feel to it. I just love this.

The reason that the princess was able to escape is simple. The cabin changes with his perspective, so that means that he went from "It's just a princess" to "If this is so important, than couldn't the princess free herself?"

love how the world being referred to as 'the sky, the birds, the trees' comes back at the end. They also could have meaning, the sky is only really seen in the ending(s) or when the princess gets out (in the beginning its 'night or day' but similar enough), both the protagonist and the narrator are birds, and the outside is almost always described by mentioning the trees/woods

This is incredible. Side note: My favorite voice is the paranoid, so I'll be chanting Heart, Lungs, Liver, Nerves to the beat in my second listen to this song.

Love the detail of Narrator no longer talking during the final segment.

I can tell this was made for the Demo due to the Old Stranger design, but is very fitting for Smitten, Broken and Stubborn to be here, because ultimately of all 11 voices those are the ones who are the most blatant in their love for their respective princess, in their own way.

I love that you had the eldritch form of the princess reveal the fact that the cabin shifts, because out of all of them, she would be the one to teach you how your perception shifts the reality of the situation. Lots of clever stuff in here.

3:13 THE CHAIN BREAKING AND ECHOING GAVE ME CHILLS OH MY GOD

Voice. Rythm. Bars. Visuals.

[The Narrator] You're on a path in the woods. In the woods there's a cabin, and the heart of a threat to the world has been trapped in a damsel in distress who is planning on distracting the wielder of a blade from a fate that must happen... Apocalypse is looming and it's riding on your fate. No more birds, no more trees. No more night and no more day Cause the ending will retreat with every letter that I say inside the hell developing in the event that she escapes... [The Princess] It's been a while, it felt like years. You came to rescue me? My hero! You're the savior here? I doubt it when you freeze. How fearsome could this princess be? Don't leave me chained here. Do as you should and set me free! I won't be slain here [The Narrator] As you step into the night, you'll soon be scaling up the hill. You must keep moving, no more days here left to kill. All that's left for you: A princess and a blade upon a table, If you claim yourself unable: I advise you slay her still [Voice of the Smitten] There must be another way! No. It's wrong to have her slain! Throw away that blade I pray! This maiden also has a say! [The Narrator] This is no item for debate, she'll be lying to your face. All your piety and grace, we'll all be dying if she's saved! By design she may look normal but don't trust her, she's not. Deep behind those crying eyes there's a devil with a plot. Don't you foolishly pretend you won't be left down here to rot. Or be cruel and promise clementcy, then end her on the spot. Once a vicious superstition, she could take her powers back. Trained believers are but victims waiting later down the track. So don't listen, little voices may distract you from the act. Take a breath, take a step... and take a stab. [The Princess] It's been a while, it felt like years. You came to rescue me? My hero! You're the savior here? No stranger way to meet :) How fearsome could this princess be? Don't leave me chained here... Do as you should and set me free! I won't be slain here This cabin shifts by your beliefs! Don't leave me chained here... Well after death my heart will beat! I wont be slain here [The Narrator] You're on a path in the woods. In the woods there's a cabin, and the heart of a threat to the world has been trapped in a damsel in distress who is planning on distracting the wielder of a blade from a fate that must happen... [Voice of the Stubborn] So send her to the depths, make her pay for what she's done! When you're slain you don't forget. Drive that blade between her lungs! [Voice of the Broken] Is ther ANOTHER one of us? She's already killed us once! If our "friend doesn't remember; let him think we've just begun! [The Princess] Days mean nothing in the maw of forever. Day dreams mocking as I claw and dismember. Chain me up, but we'll still be together. Slay me, but if I'm killed; I'll remember... Waiting will not trouble this spectre. Shaking still? I ruffle your feathers. Chain me up, but we'll still be together. Days mean nothing in the maw of forever... [The Narrator] As you gaze into the basement you're in shock at what you saw... The chains that held the princess are forgotten on the floor. So ominous an aura o'er the horrid bonds she tore. Forgiveness was a privilege: Now it's all out war As she dives into the darkness you're in fear of what comes next. Your eyes are leaden-heavy and you feel you need some rest. There is a purpose for that blade you can't neglect. If you wait to slay the princess; she'll be slaying you insteaf. With every swipe you're meeting flesh but then you find it all in vain. For every time you strike Her Highness she replies with just the same. So with knowledge you're no match and she's no longer tied in chains. You try to run away, perhaps you'll die another day. With regret the threat of death comes near and up the stairs you climb... You make it past the door assuming there you'll be alright... Your legs give out beneath you and you find you're paralysed Your breathing stops, it all goes dark... and you die. [The Princess] It's been a while, it felt like years. You came to rescue me? "My hero," You're the savior here? I doubt it when you freeze. How fearsome could this princess be? Don't leave me chained here... Do as you should and set me free! I won't be slain here... This cabin shifts by your beliefs! Don't leave me chained here... Well after death my heart will beat! I won't be slain here What would you risk to feel the breeze? Don't leave me chained here... To see the sky, the birds, the trees? I won't be slain here... Down to the bone it's what I need. Don't leave me chained here... I die; I'll take you down with me. I wont be slain here...

"this cabin shifts with your beliefs" is an absolute banger line 10/10

2:46 This part flows so well its stuck in my head

Just for those who didn't play the game, this isn't how the story plays out. Well kind of, as there is a LOT more too it. So please don't watch this and think "oh well now I know the plot". The game is amazing, such as this song.

Now this is what I have been waiting for. A song that perfectly encapsulates the feel of the game. Darkness, dread, and mystery. You killed it in every aspect. The vocals, the music, and the feel. This was amazing! I cannot wait to see more!

the beat perfectly alligns with "heart lungs live nerves" "heart" is even alligned in the song in the begining verse

Incredible representation of the game! Well done to everyone who worked on this!

THANKS FOR GETTING ME ON THIS!!! THIS WAS SO FUN TO RECORD!

Damn, that was good. Tho I find it a bit hilarious that for the 'behind those eyes there's a devil with a plot' line they choose a Damsel picture of all things.

I just realized the crow sounds at 1:11 when the narrator talks

I love that as the song progresses, the Princess' influence gets stronger and the Narrator's becomes weaker.

EARWORM, I love how this one turned out. Thanks for having me along!

Not to disrespect other songs but this song has the best vocals! Amazing job to everyone

Well after death my heart still beats... Someone is murdering the track here!

a masterfully written song to go along a masterfully written game ? nice

Im all of the views, literally me, the replay button is fused to my hand, my headphones know wassup so they prepare this song before i even put them on. I moved to a cabin in the woods just to have an accurate listening experience, this song hits hard so i use it rather than the blade to slay princesses

Fantastic. One of my few complaints about the songs about video game scene on youtube is that a lot of smaller games get completely overlooked for all the bigger more popular ones. And slay the princess was right on the top of my list of games I felt like deserved people writing music about it but just assumed wouldn't. So I'm glad not just that you did it, but it's a hell of a catchy song as well.

Hell yeah, starts of normal and then it grows more sinister as things change! I love it!

oh my g... sometimes I can't believe how talented this fandom is this is simply phenomenal ❤

Pretty good, my only real complaint is the mischaracterization of The Voice of the Stubborn. Stubborn doesnt care about killing, he wants a good fight, the killing is incedental.

Petition to get johny sims and Nicole goodnight to sing this

thanks for fueling my developing slay the princess hyperfixation this song freaking rules

aw man now i won't be the first channel to post a slay the princess fan song anymore In all seriousness, this is awesome!!! Everyone did amazing impressions and the lyrics are so cool and sinister. Great work to everyone involved, I'm currently OBSESSED with this game and this song captures it so well!!

Everyone slayed 💅💙

I know nothing about this game, but the song is epic, the lyrics are awesome, the visuals are incredible and the story is fantastic

We need a sequel with more voices and princess alternatives

OKAY BUT WHY IS THIS ACTUALLY SO GOOD??? 💖 💖 💖

the narrator went insanely hard, one of your best songs yet, the flow is real great work!!!!

Finally, a song for this masterpiece of a game! Great job!

LOVE the song. And i am so happy you didn't portray the narrator as a villain, after all, his intentions are pure

it's been a while it felt like years... this is amazing! you always do so well

One nitpick is that the line "if our friend doesn't remember; let him think we've just begun!" Should have been given to someone else other than the Broken

This channel has now introduced me to two games that I really like this being one and the other being oneshot.

This is amazing, it really captures the feel so well. I adore Slay the Princess and this song just nails it.

can we just talk about how fcking spine chilling the stranger ending is

This song is awesome. Everyone did an awesome job!

This needs to be a VR experience

1:30 I absolutely ADORE the use of the main leitmotif here, really brings the whole thing together. This is a wonderful song that really invokes the main themes of the game, fantastic stuff. I only wish there was a moment where voice of the paranoid whispered “Heart. Lungs. Liver. Nerves.” Along to the beat.

The Song is FIRE

I have to say, I never would've thought it was possible to capture Slay the Princess in a song faithfully, but you did a damn good job.

Well, I have never felt scared because of a song before! That’s new! But given this a psychological horror game I think that means you did a very good job.

I enjoy every Musiclide song, but sometimes he comes out with a masterpiece such as Want Some Fun that I cannot stop listening to over and over again. This song is one of those.

We're not getting slayed here!!! 🔥🔥🔥

This came in my suggestions randomly a few hours ago, and I'm so glad it did. Everything about it is perfect, it's been on loop and I'm not ready to stop anytime soon

Your quality is as impeccable as always! amazing work as always dude!

1:10 Lmao, Narrator just *cawed*

I love how the first part of the Song the princess is nice but at 3:53 the princess is now alot colder and Says "My hero" instead of "MY HERO!" I love the attention to detail

The narrator's lyrics are fucking boss.

subscribed during the first verse, dayum

Ive listened to this song since release on spotify, and its even better than i anticipated seeing the visuals. Amazing work, i absolutely love how the princess gets more demented as the story progresses.

Between this and "Want Some Fun", you earned a new fan. You and your team are supremely talented, and I look forward to more.

The first time I've genuinely felt chills from a song

Wow, great! Love t game, love t song!

ABSOLUTE BANGER I LOVE THIS COMMUNITY SO MUCH

bro musiclide is honestly the most underrated nerdcore artist

How does this only have 7k likes?

Now this is just a piece of art. Greatly fitting voices, with very smooth lyrics that reflect the lore of the game. Only shame it doesn't show anything connected to the ending, but other than that, an amazing song

The song is nice but I assure you, this is just one perspective (Pun intended if you played the game :P) It is so much more thought provoking. Actually, the game itself states at the opening sequence that it is a _love story_ , and that there are no right or wrong choices. Just paths to be explored.

Damn what a fucking banger

I didn’t expect this game to get a song, but it definitely deserves it!! I realise with this song I clearly haven’t seen all the endings, and I want to rewatch a let’s play now! The progressively scarier song and change of tone in the princess’s voice is such a nice touch!! The rapping is really good and the song captures this game really well, I love the different references to the multiple ending, this song was the best one that could have been made for this! I’m very happy I discovered your channel, I’m excited to listen to all of your other pieces of art! Now, let me add this fine video to my long list of nerdcore music I listen in repeat again and again for years on end

This is so incredibly awesome from the beautifull angelic like voice of the princess to the narrator and the amazing beat. Instantly added to my playlist and please continue using your talent of making bangers like this.

This song slayed not just the princess❤‍🔥

Amazing, I loved it. Brought me back to when I first played the game. Well done

A dangerous enemy that grows and changes based on what you believe of it.

That sounds so good, I wished to hear the Paranoid XD But damn, that so good

THESE LYRICS ARE AMAZINGGGG...

Wow, I haven't seen this game, but with a song like this... I've got me intrigued... What a phenomenal presentation and lyrical structure... I am flabbergasted...

An absolute banger

Bars have been Narrated here

I actually tried doing Paranoid's 'Heart, Lungs, Liver, Nerves' to the beat. It's in 4/4, so it works quite well. And both times 'heart' is said in the song line up perfectly. Unfortunately, the one 'lungs' doesn't, but nothing is perfect.

the rap and rhymes gosh, so amazing!

This is so good, Would love a version two with perhaps a minute for each route if you have any desire to do it again now that the whole thing is out. Think i listened to this 10 times in a row

this is really the most underrated channel ive seen

Having this type of narrated song is so cool! I got this recommended on Spotify and could easily build the pictures in my head! The videos is almost the same as what I thought of!

The fact that I can chant "Heart, Lungs, Liver, Nerves" to this perfectly on beat is impressive because this song was written before the full game came out Anyways i freaking love this song now I’m just gonna chant "Heart, Lungs, Liver, Nerves" while listening to this ♪(๑ᴖ◡ᴖ๑)♪ definitely gonna put this in my playlist

One of the best songs I’ve heard in a long time.

Thanks for making this game live, this is gold

This captures the vibe of the game so well

Straight up amazing

I love how her lines start as kind and hop8ng youll save her, with the "i wont be slain here" is a determined belief but becomes a command as the song progresses

literally to tears, thank you for such a wonderful song and an equally gorgeous video sequence

This is a very impressive song here. Very nice!!

This nails the aesthetic and vibe of the game. It's incredible!

After playing the game it’s crazy how much you show here yet how little reveal, I’m beyond impressed

This is a masterpiece!

This is so beautifully eerie, I want to play this game now, very good job

also came back here just to say i really appreciate the sheer "vagueness" of the song and mainly sticking to chapter 1 stuff with some chapter 2 stuff shown just barely enough to leave you without context Your songs have always been insanely spoiler free even in times you do actually show spoilers

Don't know how you have such few subs or views, all of your videos are bangers, good work

You guys are absolutely insane, fantastic singing!

Between this and Knives, Gears and Wires, it's clear why I should subscribe to you.

absolutely incredible!
