Almost everyone dies and the whole place is destroyed My tears: I sleep John plays an organ My tears: WOKE!!!!!

This song is a beautiful mix of Showtime and Harlequin, two of John’s main theme songs. It’s enough to make you emotional just by recognizing the leitmotifs

Also think it's cool that this is in D minor, while the original piano melody was in C minor. I wonder if that was done to give a sense of rising above what came before as a sense of fulfillment, or maybe to mimic Bach's great D minor toccata, or some other reason.

Abby Nadira u just edited it. no skills whatsoever

A planet bursts into existence, A pillar of houses on the top, no longer a domestic building, it is a cathedral to the god of wind. The nobles enter, awestruck. A lone figure clad in a translucent blue robe stands at the back, facing an impossible network of pipes. He plays without even touching the keys. The figure starts laughing maniacally. This Ghosty Trickster turns around, revealing himself as the greatest villain; obfuscating stupidity hiding true nature. The ultimate prank is complete.

This was such an awesome flash. The music was awesome, sure, but even better was the fact that it marked the first time the Kids accomplished something major instead of just staying in one piece. They finally stand a chance against Jack, Condesce and English, they finally have begun to make their move.

it happened we predicted it and it happened

Two interesting observations: this is written in D minor, while the original piano theme is in C minor, so if you play them back to back it sorta gives a sense of rising above what came before it (by quite literally rising exactly one full step up on the keyboard). D minor is also the same key as the famous Bach organ toccata that everyone thinks of regarding big dramatic organ music.

Seeing John finally complete his quest after so long was incredibly satisfying.

This made me cry big ass tears when it first happened man. Homestuck was a story for the ages.

It's haunting, minor, soaring, freeing, hopeful, heartbreaking, and just so many other emotions I struggle to put into words. Still among my favorite songs, perhaps ever.

This is what John plays in the pipeorgan to clean LOWAS, he plays _Showtime_ , the song his father taught him... that made me really sad 3':

"Let's go off and try to save our friends, To love and protect; to hold and defend, If we all fail to transcend, We'll go try again. Let's go back and attempt to amend, Our lives that are doomed and try to pretend, That if we fail and die in the end, We can try again."

of course it was James Roach. even back then that guy was a genius.

Probably my favorite moment in all of Homestuck

This is the sound you actually should hear in a cathedral. The windows...look at the album art for Jade Mother.

I can imagine this being like the final song in a flash for homestuck the one that ends it all

I played this for 4/13. I'm feel this epic.

So that's how you weaponize a pipeorgan. I never would have guessed.

Literal chills every time I hear this song.

There are bits of Harlequin in this and it is beautiful.

i love how you can ever so slightly hear flare and explore in the background, explore is a little more prominent

This song makes me feel so nostalgic...

I've listened to this all day. I love music motifs from stuff I love (like homestuck) put into more classical formats. So I can enjoy stuff like homestuck and when someone hears the music too they think Im being all classical-fancy.
