  • I really love this song, so it was a pleasure to do. Gameplay footage was recorded by myself.
    The text at the top of the screen is written in "Celestial" or "Angelic" script, not completely accurate, I only put it in for the Aesthetic bonus.
    You can learn more about celestial script here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celesti...
    These lyrics aren't at all official, just a fan transcription, feel free to use them in any covers or anything you plan on doing, and whilst I'm not going to hunt you down for not crediting, it would be appreciated if you could link to this video.
    The language sung in many NieR tracks, (Excluding ashes of dreams and The weight of the world) is not a proper spoken language, and is actually a mish mash of several real world languages to create a fictional portrayal of the language drift between today and the game(s) setting.

    Ususally most games have OSTs for areas be kind of "normal" and not special instead focusing on bosses, but NieR's desert theme goes hard and ita the perfect example of the incredible music compositon of NieR automata

      Also it was a black lady that did the locals but when you search up the song you can barely see anywhere for her credit as the vocal I didn’t know this before and i was shocked I thought it was either a German girl or a Japanese girl that singed her song

      @@newagehero9605 she's j'nique Nicole. she did vocals for this song, rays of light, part of a beautiful song, part of the tower, weight of the world english version, and maybe 1 or 2 more.
      the white singer is emi evans. she's the creator of the chaos language used in NieRs music. and she's essentially the main singer of the NieR series. Nami nakigawa is the Japanese singer and she also worked on the original NieR OST. fun fact, she's actually popolas voice in each version of song of the ancients. (she's not the voice actor of the character though).
      I used to think emi evans was the only singer in song of the ancients since both vocals sound like hers/1 characters. but nope, nakigawa is 1 of the singers

    This game has some of the best music I have ever heard in my life. I just finished ending A last night, literally bawled my eyes out for 30 minutes straight man. What a masterpiece. I'm so excited for the rest of the game, if not a little anxious hahaha... I hear that if you cried at ending A, you will bawl your eyes out at the other endings, and, well, I did exactly that...for the first ending. Safe to say, I'm in for a ride. This game though man... Nier: Automata is one of the best things I've honestly ever experienced, I almost dont even want to call it a game, its a masterpiece of art. Enough rambling, however. Glory to mankind.

      Same guys. I was waiting for a Linux release that never happened.
      The moment it hit the Switch I immediately ordered the game so I could finally play it.
      Excellent game, art direction, and awesome music.
      After my first full playthrough (ABCDE-Endings, among others) I happened to delete my Save-Files and played through the entire game again with Music turned OFF.
      The game has excellent atmosphere even without music, and I wanted to experience that as well as a more "authentic" experience to what the characters of the game would actually experience.
      I still had the music playing in my head sometimes of course :D
      Now that I finished the game a second time (after 60h again I think, because I wasn't in a rush), I re-enabled the music and enjoy cleaning up the few Quests I did not finished before.

      Hungry Guy The language essentially is a hodgepodge of different languages. I've watched some videos and read some interviews explaining it and how Emi Evans managed to create songs based on previously selected languages(such as English, French, Italian and German) and her impressions on it were "how it would sound like in 1000 years". So essentially the language really means nothing. Theres a hidden meaning to it but then again it's just gibberish.

      Chaos language, it's a meaningless mix of language made up by Emy Evans (the singer behind most if not all Nier/Automata soundtracks). She makes certains songs sound "more" french, or "more" japanese, depending on the context, but they're all chaos language; the meaning is in the harmony rather than the vocabulary.

    This song is amazing until you realize it's a short song where the vocals loop over and over and over and over the entire time you're in that area. By the time I finally left I just about went insane hearing it. I feel like it would have been so much better to have to vocals kick in at key moments with the song just playing instrumental the rest of the time. It's a great song, but I think the game used it so poorly. But that's just my opinion
