Yeah, it really fits Vergil's character. His adherence to tradition and his demonic heritage, in addition to the pain and vulnerability he keeps buried under his superiority complex and a façade of stoicism. (Hence the title of the song, "Bury The Light") He maintains a front of his darker parts while his capability for compassion and empathy is suppressed and smothered for fear of being hurt as he was in childhood when the few people he actually loved were violently ripped away by Mundus's minions.

This entire song is just Vergil. His entire character is like a controlled, symphonic badass. Honestly, if you haven't played DMC3, you should.

This must be one of the best reacts ive ever heard. Your comments plus showing examples of what is going on in music is just very informative. I SUBSCRIBE!!!!

Those strings where driving him nuts lol love to see it. The song has the same influence on any normal individual.

I feel like DMC and video game music as a whole has evolved into something so complex, and unique that it is truly an amazing art form that continues to evolve and only get better.

Makes total sense, DMC is all about style, all the aesthetics and sounddesign gotta be too notch.

6:12 Its subtle but I just love how leading up to "Forsaken, I am" is sung in a scruffy aggressive tone, then seamlessly moves onto "Awakened. A Phoenix ashes dark divine" with a softer tone to signify a change in Virgil's being. These very small details, I swear...

I so much love that line. He was forsaken, so he forsake his humanity. Then he reclaimed it and was reborn like phoenix from the ashes....damn!!!

Bro, this is the best react channel on KZread, so much damn effort in this. I will be listening to your entire playlist while I do my long drives for work.

I think the reference to the fact that it has an orchestral sort of theme sometimes to it, almost to sounding like it can sound like it would fit in Castlevania could be how Virgil as a child was always into classical music and played the violin, which can be seen in one of his taunts in DMC5 and in the unfinished manga. It would be an immensely cool reference.

Personally, as a person who plays the Viola in a high school orchestra, the beginning and the part at 9:12 sound so marvelous, with the piercing sound of the bow strokes given off by the Violins. It kind of gives the song a frighteningly powerful sound when combined with the threatening abysmal sound of the low pitch theme of the song.
