Truly. It actually reminds me of the feel I got the first time the halo battle music played. Just much darker/ominous. One part scared, one part pumped, but I don't think I can think of another piece that made me have THAT type of feel.

The whole sequence in the game where the bard sings weeping dawn is stunning.

Twisted Force literally plays whenever Larian has an encounter that's going to be monsters or hard. Same with Legacy of Bhaal

Can't believe I finally found someone who feels music as intensely as I do. It fills me with so much emotion that it feels like my small human body can't contain it. It was wonderful to watch you experience these emotions. The pleasure you feel is almost palpable.

Nightsong is practically a religious experience when played with the scene its from considering you're freeing a child of a god, possessed of a shard of divinity, it's not too far off FROM a religious experience plus, being a sapphic myself, to find out later she's a lesbian and reunites with her lost love, this song means so much to me

I LOVE how they used the strings in this game. They sound tortured and scratched, pulled and beaten but it make for such unique and awesome tracks

I just love Twisted Force. Probably the one piece of music in the game that I listen to at least once or twice every day, beyond hearing it when I play the game a bunch too lol

Nightsong, complete in the moment of the story where it takes place, completely stunned me. Incredible.

Nightsong is so impactful when you hear it for the first time during its scene.

The entire OST of Baldur's Gate is a masterclass in soundtracks!~ So glad you're exploring the tracks, and I hope to see a part 3~

The entire scene with Alfira was so powerful, the sentiment of Weeping Dawn, that lost potential to give back to those who provided for you, it's not something touched on often in media and hit me like a punch to the gut.

Your wonderful facial expressions here are giving me almost as much positive energy as the music itself :D Very valuable commentary imo

110% agree with this. I love how your depiction of what you think the song is depicting is so accurate to the scene they're playing in.

Running into The Weeping Dawn during my first playthrough was such a blessing. I hadn't played the early access so I had no idea it was there but I like to fully explore areas and naturally ran into it. The conversation and the eventual starting of the cutscene were just a wonderful thing to discover.

I love your wide-eyed expressions at the start of the songs. Because that's exactly how I reacted and felt when hearing them in-game. 😆

The best thing about the combat songs in this game is that there are heroic versions that the music can transition to when you defeat an enemy, turning the tide of battle in your favor. Look up Enemy Down, you won't be disappointed.

Just watching his eyes get huge as he really TAKES IN the music is so fun and makes me giggle.

13:34 always catches me off guard. It feels so unnatural, but in a good way. I genuinely can't tell where the voices stop and the strings start. What a chilling effect.

When I hear Twisted Force, I always want to hear The Hu start singing with it.

please do a full length version of what you did for Twisted Force I BEG, it sounded SO COOL and gave the song a complete different flavour

I'm floored how you describe nightsong without playing it and many of your points are so close to spot on. You sir are amazing and i really hope you play through the game.

Got to admit, he was pretty much onto it with the Nightsong analysis. It's a moment I think everyone should go through once.

Hi SPG! The Weeping Down knocked me out! It's INCREDIBLE! It's so harmonious, so sweet, it really brings out the fantasy world in which the game is set. The song reminds me of a tale told to children, like an old legend guiding the hero and his companions to a treasure. For Nightsong, it makes me imagine that our heroes arrive in a town that has been struck by a strange disease, and that our heroes are motivated to want to save it and restore it to its former glory. Wow, for Twisted Force, I wasn't expecting that! The piece makes me imagine a fairly important fight to advance the story, the boss would have several combat phases. And an excellent video as always!

​@lewd2851 Not to mention, they literally described the plot of act 2 entirely, lol

twisted force for me conveys danger and confusion in battle. its perfect.

You covered two of my fav pieces in this video. A note for Twisted Force is that the first 50 seconds or so are like a perfect musical display of "descent into madness / battle frenzy" IMO

The power of Nightsong is in combination with what happens in the game it's actually become one of my favorite game moments! That whole track evokes so much

I have to say, nightsong is one of my favourite parts of the game so far ❤ the escene is just... wonderful Oh and Twisted force is one of my favourite songs too!

The Nightsong became one of my most favorite game songs ever and you really managed to make it even a little better than it already is, wow!

Amazing analysis of the songs! "Twisted Force" has so much weight to it that it's my go-to song for serious D&D battles where there are some big, BIG stakes where failure can lead to catastrophic consequences. I never thought "Nightsong" could be used in a moment other than when I heard it from the game, but the band of warriors led by an elven shaman priestess is such good imagery for it.

I love how that central theme comes back in most of the music pieces - and how it can change character with the changes in instrumentation and key

I love how you felt all the emotionality behind the Nightsong-Music without actually knowing, what's happing during it in the game... and your feeling between the lines and interpreting the music on it's own nailed it... eventhough it's not the elven priestress at the front of an army... :) I'm in tears every time I'm singing along with it...

Glad to see a part 2 of this, i am absolutely in love with your reactions and analysis of this soundtrack. Ive been listening to it for about 7 days straight now

A video game hasn't had this effect on me ina while, especially the music... Such a good soundtrack; gives me goosebumps, glad you enjoy it!!

Couldn't agree more!

Weeping Dawn is such a beautiful song, the background sounds building up into an epic piece always gets me. Nightsong is also one of my favorites, very nice video as always :) Hope you've also started playing the game and are enjoying it!

I love your enthusiasm and passion for music. And parts when you play along withe song are always beautiful. There is still a lot of excellent music in Baldur's Gate 3. Hope to see more on your channel!

The end game of act 2 has to be one of my favorites. The Nightsong, the Nightsong area, the fights, General Thorm. Just wow

Twisted Force is one of my favorite battle themes. Ive played a lot of RPGs with some epic music, but this song is something else. I was floored the first time I heard and was like: What in the hells WAS THAT?! A spectacular piece, truly awesome!

I am DELIGHTED to see another reaction of yours. It's just wonderful seeing people enjoying the craft that goes into this music. 😄

When I helped the bard with the Weeping Dawn it became a favorite. This song resonates. I am reminded of my father who passed away more then 20 years ago.

My dad passed in December 2022 so it was relatively recent when I first heard this song in game. It hits me right in the heart. All the things I wish I could tell him but can’t. I tear up every time I hear it.

'Nightsong' really hit me in the feels - so I loved seeing how delighted you seemed to be as it moved along.

Love these reactions dude, you are amazing on those strings. Glad you're playing the game and still putting these out. So awesome.

I hope Borislav sees this one too!! Another amazing video. You are such a joy to watch!!

The combination of beautiful voices and brutal drums as you called them is so very fitting for Nightsong when you know what it is actually referring to.

Weeping dawn and nightsong are in my top 3 favourite! Great reaction keep it up 👍 Loved your reaction when your heard the first drum in nightsong 😁

13:54 i love that dissonance you played, it fits so nicely

I love everything that you added to them, it adds a lot to the music and makes it very melodical.

After the last video I was hoping you’d listen to Nightsong because your violin add ons are sooo amazing. I was not disappointed.

Twisted Force has a real vibe of 'you dun goof'd, now pay the price' to it.

I listened to Nightsong before hearing it in game and when you understand the context and listen afterwards…chills.

jesus the harmony with twisted force and your violin sent chills

Music is such a powerful tool. You can tell the entire story with it. The solemn but hopeful bliss of Weeping Dawn, the confident preparation for battle of Nightsong, the struggles of Twisted Force. You don't even need to know the game's plot to recognise what's happening in those moments.

I still get chills whenever I hear Nightsong.

Nightsong touched my soul directly

The Nightsong together with the visuals and the context is one of the greatest gaming moments of my life.

I love the Keyleth statue on the desk :D

Your Violin additions..... "Iceing on the cake"... Excellent review.

And to think I *almost* missed the Weeping Dawn. Dude! Your playing adds a whole new level of awesomeness to the music. Subscribing. Now.

I come here for reactions and musical accompaniments. I have watched a majority of your back log since that first BG3 video and have tried to like and comment on all of them (only when I think the comment might be interesting) ... and yeah... I love the improvisation you do with your wonderful violin... and you're obviously as passionate about doing music as I am listening to it. So, thank you for your work and reactions!

Wow, you got it so close with the analysis for the Nightsong, ties so well with the scene too.

Omg im mezmirised by your additions to the music; im getting goosebumps! subscribed

The first time I saw the Night song scene I cried. The song still gives me chills and a weepy eye whenever I hear it after experiencing it❤

Twisted Force is excellent for the boss encounters since it passes such a heavy vibe of facing something immensely powerful. But Alfira's song Weeping Dawn is so damn good, specially hearing the lyrics with attention it's a farewell song for her teacher who died, it's such a good mixture of sadness and hope.

I love how after you finish each song, you sauce it up with your own style 🫶

I’ll be walking around, minding my business and I’ll just start singing “Down, down, down, by the river…” The Harpy’s song is beautiful as well.

i love these videos, especially when you come in with your own instruments! c:

When i first heard the nightsong in game, i was just in awe! Its just sooo, so beautiful and EPIC! It really fits the scene. Every time i listen to it, i just get goosebumps! Same for the harpy song and down by the river Also your take on how you imagine what happens while hearing it is almost perfectly spot on👌🏻 love your explanations

More of this please!! Keep reacting to Baldurs gate 3 tracks!! I love this type of content

Love how you can see the chills with the Nightsong well... song xD. Such a great moment !

The weeping dawn. Seriously after only an hour of game time and then finding this. I literally broke down in a mixture of joy and tears. Weeping dawn is amazing. Masterpiece. Takes alit to get emotional over music and this just punches you in the gut

Hot damn, that lil diddy ya performed in Nightsong was fantastic. Had to replay that a few times

Awesome video! Also love REALLY good Cazador outfit!

Love the BG3 music reviews! And my god, they need to hire you for strings on any expansion content. Would dearly love you to include The Power if you do another BG3 music review, it’s my favourite piece of music in the whole game.

Love your reaction, great video!

I've loved 4 game soundtracks in my life. Half of them has Borislav Slavov *as the responsible XD

Nightsong is my favorite so far, really, when it drops, it drops at a crazy time, the context is amazing, and the cinematic is superb.

Im glad to found your channel by accident, I really enjoy your reactions❤

I'm glad you like the weeping down. I came up with the lyrics.

Twisted force really works well with that spider fight. Sounds like twanging sounds of web.

Raphael's Final Act was by far my favorite, first time in a long time a song in a game not only made me laugh but hyped me up big time.

I love that in a year of great video games with great soundtracks this game and its music was able to stand toe to toe with all them with how great its music is! thank you for helping us appreciate it even more!

Nightsong is a song that moved me to tears. After understanding all the story behind the Nightsong, seeing that cinematic was marvelous!

Sir you must do a Full violin cover of Twisted force, that little bit you played at the end gave me chills, so perfect

I heard it described before that Twisted Force's lute was loosened specifically to invoke imagery of battle-damaged instruments. Really apt if you're playing a bard.

Twisted Force: [plays] Tav: Quaff your haste postions! Ready your weapons and spells, my brothers and sisters in arms! Death or glory awaits us this day!

I need to learn how to play like you 8:20 Such beauty and dedication to your talent! Keep it up!
