--
Lace your heart with mine
Let your sleeping soul take flight
Take me through the night
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river
Hanging moon in fog
Mists will lead where you belong
Sweep me off my feet
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river
Inky embers
Swirl and dance
Just leap the flames to take a chance
To be with me tonight
Take my hand
And hold it tight
'Cause you and I are everywhere
The night is young
We're going down down down by the river
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river
Don't wake me up
Just leave me there dreaming

Hayo, I’m the vocalist and I love all these nice comments, I have read every single one ❤️

@@LeonAquitainethank you! ❤️❤️
WE NEVER MAKING IT OUT OF CHARACTER CREATION WITH THIS ONE 🔥 🔥 🔥
Quite literally, i stopped, walked away with my headset, and did housework
They knew you were gonna be there for 4 hours so 😂
Lmaooo
Let's be honest, we're never making it out of character creation without this
"Who are you?"
Ah yes,the place where character creation is located. Down,down,down by the river
After seeing the extensive dating simulator in the game, "down down down by the river" took on a whole other meaning 😂
When you’re stuck in the character creation screen for 6 hours and you have this lovely melody to listen to. It’s heaven. You just knew this was the start of a very special game.
literally me yesterday. Just bought the game.
bro i have like 40 hours in the game right now. it took me like 20 minutes to get through character creation xD. I just selected fighter and went for battlemaster to get more attacks
EXACTLY BROO, going into the game vibing at the very start while not even ‘playing’ and just selecting a character it meant I was in for an amazing experience. And the game hast disappointed!!!
best part of the game
my 4yo daughter has heard this song so often from my playing BG3 that she started asking this to be played before bed. now she can't sleep without it 😅 honestly, totally worth it just to hear her singing along with the vocals 💜💜💜
This is so adorable to read. ^^
Thats effin adorable!!! Will do for my future baby!
my 3yo loves it too and she's only ever heard me singing it thru my headphones while I'm playing or if it's stuck in my head haha, she asks for it often, I should play her the actual song.
Your 4 year old can be around the violence and weird stuff in this game? Neat, though not complete sure how you do it.
My girlfriend can't take the violence/weird stuff (or the loads of dialogue...lol), so this song doesn't get a chance to resonate with her 😢
@@EternallApprentace A 4 year old doesnt really know what they're looking at completely and its a video game, what the heck yall been playin the past 15 years?😆even trailers got gore in them these days
Ah yes, the comfort of being back in character creation lol
"Lace your heart with mine
Let your sleeping soul take flight
Take me through the night
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Hanging moon in fog
Mists will lead where you belong
Sweep me off my feet
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Inky embers (inky embers)
Swirl and dance (swirl and dance)
Just leap the flames to take a chance
To be with me tonight
Take my hand
And hold it tight
Cause you and I are everywhere
The night is young
We're going down down down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Down down down by the river
Down down down by the river (by the river, by the river)
Don't wake me up
Just leave me there
Dreaming"
A slow melody starts unravelling softly in the background as you distracted from your activities. Gradually, from the middle of your chest in all directions across your body, a restful and inviting feeling embraces you. A delicate bliss, it feels like mid-summer sun in the field back home, a child-like joy yet so soothing and tranquil. As the melody grows in form, the very first notes send a current through your brain. You instantly know what this music is. It is the music that gave you birth.
Like a little tadpole burring into your brain......
Reading that with a voice of Our Dear Narrator adds so much...
Purring worm inside my brain agrees
Oh, that’s brilliant. Love the DM voice with that.
so uh, i don't know if you guys were aware but the tadpole was originally supposed to seduce you and be its own sentient being named Daisy. and she was supposed to have given you a happy lover life by tricking you when you give in. and you undergo ceremorphosis as a mindflayer. you were supposed to be down by the river with your lover while also screaming in pain lmao
Game of the year 2023!!! What a fantastic game by Larian, can't wait to see what's next!
Quite deserved, couldn't agree more!
How many adventurous souls - noble and wicked, ordered and carefree, hero, villain and somewhere in between - have already been born to this melody?
How many more stories are just waiting to be told?
You know a song is good when you listen to it non-stop for 3 hours and then listen a 1 hour video of that same song.
with repeat loop on.
I wish music like this was more popular, its hard to find gems like these
Truly the song is laced with some sort of magic. It truly inspires and lifts my souls even from the darkest pits.
nah it has a suggestion spell on it to listen to it on loop and we all failed the saving throw
The original intention was literally the opposite funnily enough. Before the Emperor was worked in to the plot, the Dream Visitor was a regular mind flayer that tried to convince you to drown yourself "Down by the river". In the Beta version of the game, you didn't visit them by a giant skull in the astral plane, you were chilling next to a river bank.
"Don't wake me up.
Just leave me there
Dreaming"
we are very clearly under a bard's spell
I have bad ptsd, my anxiety is really bad, and i find it extremely hard to relax. Gaming helps me relax, has done since i was a child an this song helps me relax an calm. I go on the game and find i haven't actually played for like an hour because im just listening to this song. It's very beautiful
I needed this video in the background while I obsess over Shadowheart during my day.
Thank you.
Welcome to the club then. ;)
WE MAKINIG IT OUT THE NAUTILID WITH THIS ONE🔥🔥🔥
I'm just here to say thank you. This song is literally the only thing that brings my toddler girl down when she has an overtired tantrum from hell 🙏🏻
This the only melody that will put my baby to sleep and I am so happy to find an hour loop ❤❤
That's so cool to read! May it bring the sweetest dreams to your baby. ^^
crying on my birthday and this stopped my tears and relaxed me to try to sleep.. thank you
Idc what anyone says; I haven’t played a good RPG since the Dragon Age series. It’s the bomb! W BG3!!!!
The best I have listened to in a while. There is still hope for music in 2023.
there is hope for the world. The whole videogame isa a sign of it!
My brain can't help but think of creating another character when listening to this song. Its practically ingrained into my brain
I've heard this loop so many times while me and my friend first played, now next time I run DnD for someone, while they're generating their characters I'll be singing for them "Down, down, down, down by the river"
What a talented and beautiful voice. She sings my kids to sleep every night with this song! My son is on the spectrum so the easy going song isn't disturbing to him or hurting his ears.
This song is so beautiful like i legit want to cry 😭♥️♥️♥️ it pulls the correct strings.
[Minor spoilers]
My first time in char creation, the "You need a guardian" voice synced perfectly with one of the high parts of the song, it legit, not kidding, surprised me in a very mesmerising way.
That's when I knew i wasn't going to play any normal game.
What your guardian was? Mine was male duergar since I thought it's the best and a bit ironic choice for my seldarine drow ;)
@melethiel you killed it on this song, thank you for making this experience that much better and giving it your all! It was so so appreciated and loved
I don’t know how often I’ve listened to this by now- a masterpiece
This song is my ringtone. I love it so much that I'll call myself from my work phone just to hear it ring.
The feeling you hit a NAT 20 and save yourself from dying
You know what you can find down, down, down by the river?...
Karlach 😈
Haha she's the best TBH
And Chris Farley, if you explore the van
I constantly listen to this while working!! And if I’m not, then that’s because I’m actually playing the game! I’m obsessed 😍
Same! In fact, I'm playing it while at work rn XD
Such a great song, especially for the character creation system. Personally this song reminds me of the Elfsong Tavern theme from the first Dark Alliance, and as a result gives me major nostalgia vibes.
I could listen to this forever! I spent such a long time in character creation just to continue hearing this heavenly melody and vocals!
This song started playing on my head, while i was doing something else entirely... only 1 song managed to do that before, And it was FF9 map song (i used to play that game a lot back when i was about 15th, now im 37th), and it was in a very happy moment of my life.
So that this game managed to do that.
Im eternally grateful to have listened to your beautiful voice.
And Baldur's Gate 3 is probably the best gaming expirience ive ever had. Yes ive played lots of other games, some even more, specially MMOs as they have maximum replayability. But this one stuck to my heart.
Thank you for this great game.
The only issue, is that now im on post baldur's gate 3 syndrome... lol every game i would have think were good, are now trash.. Devs were right being afraid ...
Nothing makes me feel goosebumps like this
"Please don't f*ck bears." - Shadowheart
Such a great song inspired by Matt Foley van being down by the river.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who ALWAYS thinks that.
Now I want to make the ultimate motivational bard... Sir Matt of Foley
This comment made my day. I can't unhear this now and im not upset about it either
I fell asleep during the character creation. Literally the best sleep I have had in years, and it was is a chair
I can sing, but I have a lot of difficulty doing it with emotion/making the song impactful in a unique way. I am astonished by how this song, every time I hear it, fills me with an almost melancholic acceptance. It feels like I'm at the end of a journey, like I just finished something massive and I am finally able to rest. Then this song plays at the beginning, and you don't hear it again until the end. Beautiful.
i just got into baldur’s gate 3 and i’m in love with this song now 😵💫
unironically my favorite part of the game
Amazing. Had to know who this was after I heard you. I put this on long drives and love it.
i absolutely adore this, such a beautiful song just puts me into a very relaxed and happy state.
One hour is too little, we used to listen it for at least 3 hours straight 🤣
I think you mean 3 *days*
3 hours for creating look and stats of our character. Then 3 more to come up with correct name 😅
omg i love this soundtrack ! Baldurs Gate 3 is a such a complete perfekt masterpiece
This woman's singing voice is beautiful. Feels extremely similar to when I heard Enya's voice for the first time.
Bless
Enjoy!
Literally all I've been listening to in the past week to focus on work. Beautiful voice and inspiring melody. Merci!
Ok guys now we need a 10h version!
It is on every time during creation of character... ;)
@@grlt23 I need it on when I'm away from the computer also 😀
My time went down, down , down by the river... and I'm happy about it
Hilarious that the song for 'creating your character' is a beautiful melody about banging by the river.
The Guardian replaced the Dream Lover who tried to seduce you and stay in the dream, often times you were on a river
Absolutely amazing...I love it
As your mind wanders off, distracted from your activities, a distant echo of a song you heard somewhere once before returns to mind, a song of comfort, of longing, a song that came to your mind in a dream, a dream before the Tadpole, a song that brought you rest, that followed you through your journey in the back of your mind in times of calm and tranquility... A song that brought you a feeling of being at peace, being home, of being loved and wanted... The song that preluded your awakening... The song that preluded everything... The song that you heard as your heart beat for the first time.
Writing on this make the hour fly by so quickly. I have written lines without stopping and I'm so happy. This song is so appeasing.
Something about this melody makes me want to continuously start a new game a create a character...this is what a game is supposed to do!!
This song has plus 7 in charisma. Used the charm spell on me and cast minor illusion to put my whole body and mind at ease as I take a hold person right to the face while it attacks me with a glorious glint in its eyes. Seriously though... The vocals are so angelic.. it's like a sirens song that draws you in. I hope she does tours as I'd love her to sign my copy of the game 😀
Thank you!!!
People will stay in character creation screen for an hour and then say: "Yeah, human paladin".
Such a special song...Hard to go Dark urge with this Angelic Masterpiece blasting but I DID IT!. I am coming to take you from the darkness Minthara! If I must drown the world in blood...so be it....you will be by my side!
Dark Urge Redemption Arch with Minthara LEGIT .....I ASK.....(Is it better to be born GOOD? or to be born EVIL and overcome it through great effort and personal sacrifice?) Such a good play-through...I have as much fun just thinking about it as I did playing it.
I remember the beating I took for Lovaitar and how I broke my oath, the slaughter of the grove in my madness. The girl with the lute..I couldn't save her but Minthara. She was like me ( 2 broken oath sworn paladin's ) and together with shields out and swords drawn we made all those that challenged us pay... In the end I said goodbye and paid the final price to save her from myself. A price my father would hold above me, but a price I paid in full.... (>.
I Love this Song. Without this Song i can't sleep. You have a wonderful voice. Thank you for this Song
Love this song so much.
Such a beautiful song. I wish it had another verse to fill out the run time a bit.
Legit can't go to sleep without this song. Beautiful!!! ❤
Spent 1 hour and a half during character creation, 80% simply enjoying the music
By far the best character creation in any video game where it's inviting and soothing and want to just never leave and let it play and just relax while being taken to another world. 👏 Brravo
The Bard in my Party Singing while the whole party is dead
This is that type of song that goes with anything as long as it is emotional related.
Wish I could sweep someone off their feet, but by now I think that's a long-gone hope, this is as close as I can get in this life :(
I live in a van down by the river...
thank you
performance +1
UNBELIEVABLY EPIC
I love this!
when this song plays when you take the next step with Karlach, I was 🥰🥰
Karlach best girl!
a man of culture@@LeonAquitaine
i love shadowheart
neat @@MatrixOracleYT
When you asking where is Baldur's Gate.
We need this at the Game Awards, asap ! ❤️😍
Sure you heard, but bg3 won game awards.
This is video is too short for creating a character.
The vocals make this beat FIRE! 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
Thank you
Beautiful song but I can't get Chris Farley and his van out of my head when I heard the lyrics, haha.
I might as well have been transported down, down, down by the river cuz I've been listening to this on loop for god knows how long
Best sleep music for may toddler😅 thanks to my hubby who's playing this game lol
I'm waiting for someone to rock this song at a talent show
The music to sit with your romance by the fire after the victory party....
I love such a smooth voice.
This game is a real masterpiece
This song is so beautiful
Why don't they ever have best girl in any of the promotional pics or the would-be box art or anything? SHE IS ONE OF THE BEST PARTS OF THE GAME AND YOU CAN'T CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE. If you know, you know. Even god damn Mizora makes it into the pic.
Karlach? Cause yes, agreed!!
@@morgan0223 😏
I think she was added quite late into the development, thats why.
nah, i just killed her down by the river
@@morgan0223❤
By the Riveeeeeerrr
I was pleasantly surprised by the vocals in this song, she's got such a gorgeous voice. I was vibing with the song as I made my character
Uma Obra De Arte!
Its like her voice was made by the gods themselves.
What a beautiful melody❤
I heard somewhere that the lyrics are indicative of the beta, where instead of having a fixed Dream Visitor you had a choice of who would visit you in your sleep, which actually included the Tadpole itself. If chosen it would urge the player character to give up and essentially join it "down the river"... i.e. end their life.
I've played games since the Atari 2600 era and I've heard a lot of great gaming music over several generations. Trust me, this is one of the Top 10 Gaming Songs of All Time.
I spent my first 12 hours of this game in the character creator
I fucking love this shit... that is all..
I havent played BG3 yet. I dont have a PC powerful enough, or a PS5. Ive barely played DnD since before covid.
But im putting a new group together for the first time in years, and now i know what music to play during session zero
It's one hour long, and still significantly shorter than the time we'll spend listening to it during character creation.
Ale Festyn!
In a van down by the river ye olde Christopher Farley doth sing and play upon this tune to ward off those that would desire to reside in wagoned homestead upon thine river bank.
Yeah I probably listened to this for a little longer than a whole hour during the character creation 😂
Just an hour?
