Can't believe that John Williams is returning at 90 YEARS OLD to bless us with the Obi Wan Kenobi Theme for the upcoming show. Talk about a living fucking LEGEND
I'm glad he's still composing. I hope he lives long enough to see his work completed and used. I'm not trying to be Mr. Negativity, but at 90 years old anything can happen. Then again, maybe him staying active might be what keeps him going. I'm pulling for him.
@@DBarns7 death itself is to much of a john williams fan to see him stop composing. every time death comes knocking on his door john simply says: im working on something. just one more piece and then ill come.
The thing about John Williams's music, although EXTREMELY potent at conjuring up images and scenes from Star Wars, can also extend into history. Historic battles, epic battles, the soul of humanity in any galaxy. His music transcends time.
I’ve always said, Star Wars is Futuristic scenery with a medieval soundtrack. Listening to any of his pieces, especially from Star Wars, and imagining lines of Medieval knights, noblemen in high castles, or even a lone warrior against a massive dragon, it fits like a glove. Easily one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.
@@xenomorphic7887 i dont know if "medieval" is the word for all of it. Some of it is medieval, but some of it sounds older and some of it sounds newer. And i think the reason it works so well is because of the "a long time ago" part of star wars, because that is what makes it so unique. Whereas other space fantasy/sci fi stuff that directly is about earth and humans need to look and sound futuristic in order for it to be genuine, star wars doesnt need to take earths technology and history in consideration when making the universe. As a result, it feels both really advanced and really old at the same time. And i think the music captures that perfectly
@@xenomorphic7887 Have you listened to Samuel Kims remix of somw Star Wars tracks as medieval pieces? its definitely worth the listen and to also see the art that is attached to the videos.
@@RabidNemo I could never get into clone wars. I always hated the cartoon versions of star wars. Not hating on anyone who did watch it, but it just wasn't the same when I was a kid. The theatrics to the actual movies was what always pulled me in
@@devynyates1929 well then you didn't give clone Wars enough of a chance. It was a little bumpy to start but you should watch through the whole series. Are some extremely dark moments
You know a film is well-scored when you can listen to just the music and track exactly what's happening in the scene without a single line of dialogue, sound effect, or frame from the film. Just the music and my mind can replay the entire fight
One of the best stories I heard about John Williams is when asked by Steven Spielberg to make music for Schillers List, he was shown the test screens without music, and left in tears. He then apparently turned to Steven and said. "I can't compose this, to do it justice you need the best musician in the world." Steven turned to him and said. "I would get them, but all the best musicians in history are dead." Implying that John Williams is the best Musician alive.
Another cool fact about Schindler's List. The people who worked on the movie were so depressed by it, that they asked Robin Williams to come to the set and cheer them up with jokes. And he didn't disappoint.
He did get several nominations for other movies; Amistad is one of the films he done, but I Agree he deserves a Best Original Score Oscar, he just needs to find another Epic Film to collaborate with someone on.
The competition back there were really powerful, It’s like imagine all of they films there were at 2000-2010 10 years of masterpieces one after the other
Anakin v Obi Wan and Yoda v Sidious. Are the greatest fights in the saga. The stakes at risk, the emotion, the forces clashing in a violent storm as the world crumbles around them. We might never see another battle like this again.
As you saw the past 10 years of Disney Star Wars, we will 100% never see this kind of movie again, even though Disney has probably more like 10x the budget as Lucasfilm has before, but only 1x10^-10 the effort, care, creativity, love, emotions, etc. .
@@homi1001 yeah disney are capable of making good products (although they are also capable at pumping out a ton of crap) but there's nothing they'll produce that'll go down through generations like RoTS
@@Kobalt_Rax_the_one Its definitely better than the sequels, they def put a lot more effort on the choreography but where they failed was the music. We needed Williams to do something like this, not a random woman who had never done star wars music...
You turned her against me?! You have done that yourself! You will not take her from me! Your anger and your lust for power have already done that. You’ve allowed this Dark Lord to twist your mind, until now, now you have become the very thing you swore to destroy. Don’t lecture me Obi-Wan. I see thru the lies of the Jedi. I do not fear the dark side as you do. I have brought peace, freedom, justice and security to my new Empire. Your new Empire?? Don’t make me kill you. Anakin, my allegiance is to the Republic! To democracy! If you’re not with me. Then you’re my enemy. Only a Sith deals in absolutes. I will do what I must. You will try.
You were the chosen one!! It was said that you would destroy the Sith not join them!! Bring balance to the force not leave it in darkness!! I HATE YOU!!!! You were my brother Anakin! I loved you!
@@pedropereira6987 Given the circumstances, we have to give Ol' Ben a pass. Anakin died the moment he became Emperor Palpatines apprentice. Only Darth Vader remained.
I've always loved the idea that by the time of 5:13 the battle has continued on for so long and the tension is so high that it is literally breaking the notes and the flow of the music... and also the idea that by the time the Force theme appears, Anakin and Obi-Wan have exhausted their natural staminas and are calling on the force to fight. As if though this is the moment the fight stops being about Anakin and Obi-Wan and instead becomes part of something greater.
"This Theme Goes Beyond the Duel of the Fates because the people who are fighting are friends, so it's like a tragedy Duel of the Fates" George Lucas said to John Williams Thus, the Music Score to the Greatest Duel of all Star Wars and all of 2000s Cinema was born... Once again, it's like Poetry
I remember watching this battle as a child. I wasn't sad at all, I was in awe Now, after watching The Clone Wars it destroys me every single time I watch it. I can't help it. I get in tears each time
Watching this fight in 2005. Before seeing The Clone Wars: Wow! I love the choreography and music. This is so EPIC!! I can literally feel Anakin's rage! Watching this fight after seeing the Clone Wars: *Uncontrollable sobbing* 😭😭
Watching this before Clone Wars: epic fighting, epic soundtrack, cheering Watching this after Clone Wars: still epic fighting and still epic soundtrack, crying my eyes and and in turn leads to anger and is my pre game jam before hockey games and allows me to consolidate all of my anger and just release it on the rink
The transition at 5:54 is so good, I can just picture it going from anakin kicking obi wan in the face to yoda trying to get to sidious with his saber while palps throws senate pods at him
Ugh that beginning. Just completely tares at your heart strings. Like all hope is lost, the one you had all the faith in the world in has turned their back on you, not able to even comprehend how to deal with what is about to be lost. Beautiful music as somber as it may be. Almost want to cry every time I hear it
God I remember this whole scene and fight in the theaters. It was just quiet to see two brothers fight to the death. When Anakin was struck down, small gasps could be heard and Vader being built was emotional.
I can’t even poke holes in this statement, best I can do is maybe the silhouettes of Luke and Vader with their sabers out on Bespin. But this one takes it in pure badassnes
This track is one of several many reasons as to why ROTS is my favorite Star Wars movie. I also think this is John Williams best Star Wars score and one of his best musical scores period.
Man, this is just too good to be true. My brain refuses to hear the beginning of "Anakin vs. Obi-Wan" without the lightsaber sounds - they just add to the track so much! Can't separate them in my mind anymore, def one of my strongest movie memories
God I love how you can so easily grasp John Williams' vision as you move through each subsequent track, through each phase of the fight. Thank you for throwing this mix together, it's amazing!
Crazy how I just finished the Clone Wars tonight. Now I'm here. People always look at Star Wars as being nerdy and childish. What meaning this entire trilogy has and the impact it leaves on people who are true fans.
@@germophobic5407the film versions are usually the rough cuts of a song, and the ones they put on the official released soundtrack are more polished and finished..so the reason movie mixes sound better are because those are the raw and rough versions lol
No plans to as long as I live! I made this video more or less out of complete boredom, and it has absolutely floored me to see how many people have viewed/loved this version. If you told me a few years ago that this video was going to garner over 3 million views, I would have laughed. Yet here this little boredom-born project stands. Thank you so much for the support!
@@Mr.Needle-Hamster I felt something watching the sequels, however that feeling was annoyance and irritation, similar to how sand makes Anakin feel...
4:48 I don't even know what it is, but when that deeper point kicks in its just goosebumps everytime. This hasn't even happened to me with another piece before where it's that consistent, like I can rewind ten seconds, come back, and it's still going crazy. John Williams is an absolute genius, and I fricking love how much he put into this franchise. He's the make or break and it was definitely a make!
@10:24 “I have failed you Anakin, I have failed you” “I should’ve known the Jedi were plotting to take over” “Anakin, chancellor Palpatine is evil!” “From my point of view the Jedi are evil” “THEN YOU ARE LOST!” This dialogue hits so deep
"I have failed you Anakin, I have failed you." "I should have known that Trump colluded with Russia" "Anakin, the mainstream media is evil!" "From my point of view, America is evil." "THEN YOU ARE LOST!"
7:58 that part for me does hurt the most, the clash of brothers, the lava rising at the background and this part of the music just...a storm of emotion rushing through me, it's the best movie for me
One of the best and emotional lightsaber duel ever because Anakin Skywalker and Obi Wan Kenobi fought in the clone wars together and When Obi Wan said Anakin was his brother that he loved him was sad 😢
Guys seeing this video get to 4 million views is absolutely astounding. I made this video on a whim out of absolute boredom one day, and seeing how far it has gotten is absolutely mind boggling. I thank each and every person who stops in to listen, each and every person who adds it to their playlist, and each and every person who leaves a comment. It means more than you know. I’m sorry I haven’t made anything else substantial since this video, I feel like I’m supposed to, I just haven’t gotten any ideas, lol. You guys are awesome.
@@davidbronson364 idiotic comment. They had their own in-world politics within them. Far different to what we have today which is fictional films trying to push a real life non fictional political narrative and agenda. You’re unbelievably stupid.
«¡Tú eras el elegido! ¡El que destruiría a los Sith, no el que se uniría a ellos! ¡El que vendría a traer el equilibrio a la fuerza, no a hundirla en la oscuridad!» - Obi-Wan Kenobi.
It's sad to see Obi-Wan in such a sad and broken state. To go from almost untouchable in Ep 3 to where he is now is is depressing, and really showing of the PTSD he has from 10 years ago. Hoping to see his character development bring him back closer to where he was!
Anyone else watching the fight between kenobi and Vader in the series with battle of the heroes playing? makes it 1000x better!! huge opportunity they missed out on!! XD
"YOU WERE MY BROTHER ANAKIN! I LOVED YOU!" "I HATE YOU!" to this day... remembering that conversation, and how it happened on the screen.. seeing the pain in Obi-wan's eyes... hurt. Star wars (bar the newest entries to the series) is one of the greatest works of art, ever created. then and now.
I can just SEE Anakin/Darth Vader marching. With conviction in his heart and blood on his hands. Marching up the steps of the Temple. Pacing the catwalks on Mustafar. Nearly drunk on the power he had always before held back, his fate is irrevocably changed. And to meet that Darkness, rises Light. Obi Wan using Padme to track Anakin, finding his brother all but consumed by Vader, and regretfully resorting to the painful duty of fighting him. This song is an absolute masterpiece. May John Williams will always be celebrated.
I had no idea that the track ‘Battle of the heroes’ was preluded by so many tracks. I mean it makes perfect sense the song only goes for 4 mins and the final scene is longer than that. But still, extra epic
Personally, I never even noticed that Duel of the Fates played during the final battle until a friend pointed it out to me. I was just so enthralled that I never noticed. Now, it’s one of my absolute favorite parts of the song.
Hello Everyone, both of my Star Wars videos have been getting a lot of views lately, and I want to thank everyone who stops by to watch, it means a lot to a small channel like mine :) I plan to work on more Star Wars content, but I just need some ideas first, lol. Again, thank you all for stopping by!
I listened to this while fighting one of the hardest bosses I've ever fought in a video game yet: pure vessel. I did it while listening to this. Thank you. And then I listened to this for a bit while doing pantheon 5. I got to duel of the fates bit at the 40th boss, nkg, and it was EPIC. Sadly I died but ah well
My favorite 15 minutes in any form of cinema. The conflict that the whole trilogy has been building towards and it's the greatest fight in the entire saga, then throw this masterpiece of a score over it. It's magical. You can't imagine this scene without the music
Maaan, I remember when this finally hit theaters almost 20 years ago, I was so stoked to see what really happened between Anakin and Obi Wan!!!! Just the suspense, the excitement and the heartbreak all at the same time was insane!!! So many people bashed the prequels, but I will take episodes 1, 2, and 3 all day any day and everyday over 7,8, and 9 because Star Wars will never be this dark again as it was in Revenge of the Sith with the exception of Rogue One!!!
"LET HER GO ANAKIN! LET HER GO!" "YOU TURNED HER AGAINST ME!" "FUCKING WHAT?! YOU WERE JUST STRANGLING HER! " "YOU WILL NOT TAKE HER FROM ME!" "Dude... your eyes are even evil, what are we even talking about here?"
![John Williams - Duel of the Fates [GRV Extended RMX]](/img/n.gif)

Слава Советскому Союзу!
Does anyone else’s heart break during “A Path I can’t Follow.”, or is that just mine?
This was the apex of John Williams' career. You can tell that he FELT the story of the prequels!
I literaly was looking for this version 5 years and now I found it
thanks for this incredible mix
Why do they release a separate version for the cs version. Why can’t they just use the original soundtrack?
@@germophobic5407the film versions are usually the rough cuts of a song, and the ones they put on the official released soundtrack are more polished and finished..so the reason movie mixes sound better are because those are the raw and rough versions lol
Never delete this please. It's the ultimate version.
No plans to as long as I live! I made this video more or less out of complete boredom, and it has absolutely floored me to see how many people have viewed/loved this version. If you told me a few years ago that this video was going to garner over 3 million views, I would have laughed. Yet here this little boredom-born project stands. Thank you so much for the support!
If TH-cam forces you to delete this, then we'll stand by side with you during war
is this good to listen in school as teacher full of kids?
Why are you full of kids?
Anakin 2.0
@@josephlongbone4255lol
you feel your marker slowly extending
@@humanfrommars882💀💀💀💀
In this 14 minutes there is more action and excitement then in all of the sequels
passion vs no passion
At least I *felt* something watching the prequels
@@Mr.Needle-Hamster I felt something watching the sequels, however that feeling was annoyance and irritation, similar to how sand makes Anakin feel...
this is very highly underappreciated and i needed this so much, thank you!
Thank you so much! This was a lot of fun to put together :)
4:48 I don't even know what it is, but when that deeper point kicks in its just goosebumps everytime. This hasn't even happened to me with another piece before where it's that consistent, like I can rewind ten seconds, come back, and it's still going crazy. John Williams is an absolute genius, and I fricking love how much he put into this franchise. He's the make or break and it was definitely a make!
@10:24 “I have failed you Anakin, I have failed you”
“I should’ve known the Jedi were plotting to take over”
“Anakin, chancellor Palpatine is evil!”
“From my point of view the Jedi are evil”
“THEN YOU ARE LOST!”
This dialogue hits so deep
this is the end for you, my master.
It's over Anakin I have the high ground
You underestimate my power
Don't try it
"I have failed you Anakin, I have failed you."
"I should have known that Trump colluded with Russia"
"Anakin, the mainstream media is evil!"
"From my point of view, America is evil."
"THEN YOU ARE LOST!"
No matter who controls Star Wars narratively, they can never ruin John Williams’ music. An enduring gift for all us fans.
7:58 that part for me does hurt the most, the clash of brothers, the lava rising at the background and this part of the music just...a storm of emotion rushing through me, it's the best movie for me
This movie is a masterpiece. Soundtrack, avengers level of epic action. My favorite Star Wars movie easily and I have no problem saying that
beyond avengers
4:40 this whole section (especially the part where Yoda and Palpatine fight while entering the Senate area) is the best battle music of all time
10:25 “I have failed you, Anakin. I have failed you.”
"I should've known the jedi were plotting to take over!"
The choir in all of these songs always bring chills
One of the best and emotional lightsaber duel ever because Anakin Skywalker and Obi Wan Kenobi fought in the clone wars together and When Obi Wan said Anakin was his brother that he loved him was sad 😢
Guys seeing this video get to 4 million views is absolutely astounding. I made this video on a whim out of absolute boredom one day, and seeing how far it has gotten is absolutely mind boggling. I thank each and every person who stops in to listen, each and every person who adds it to their playlist, and each and every person who leaves a comment. It means more than you know. I’m sorry I haven’t made anything else substantial since this video, I feel like I’m supposed to, I just haven’t gotten any ideas, lol. You guys are awesome.
Howdy Matey.
yeag its a really nice edit, thanks a lot
11:33 so heartbreaking
Even to those who have never seen the movie
:'|
So amazingly scored and acted. God i love Star Wars
One of the greatest cinematic battles on the big screen.
It is physically impossible to listen to this as a Star Wars fan without getting chills, goosebumps, hyped, even almost tearing up.
10:44 This part always gave me the chills man, As obi wan looks horrified at what anakin has become, from the hero of the clone wars to a murderer.
"this is the end for you my master"
I miss this era of Star Wars. Back when it had passion put into it and not for the sole purpose of capitalizing off of the name.
so you mean before disney, thats just a fact, and facts like that are sad, old star wars in the cinemas was so fucking powerfull
@Blushing Saikawa fucking zoomer
@Blushing Saikawa I miss 2011
@MuffetSpiderCoffelol the prequels were absolutely political
@@davidbronson364 idiotic comment. They had their own in-world politics within them. Far different to what we have today which is fictional films trying to push a real life non fictional political narrative and agenda. You’re unbelievably stupid.

@@elsoplaveleros suena Binary Sunset Theme
@@jeancaobando9208 suena musica de creditos finales
After watching obi wan kenobi, this song brings a whole new feel to the aftermath of order 66.
It's sad to see Obi-Wan in such a sad and broken state. To go from almost untouchable in Ep 3 to where he is now is is depressing, and really showing of the PTSD he has from 10 years ago. Hoping to see his character development bring him back closer to where he was!
Mustafar was once a prosperous and thriving planet. John Williams set it on fire 🔥 🔥
This is probably the best fight scene music I’ve ever known
Anyone else watching the fight between kenobi and Vader in the series with battle of the heroes playing? makes it 1000x better!! huge opportunity they missed out on!! XD
Perhaps I am still watching after that fight
There is actually a great fan edit of it where they used the music! It’s so good!
I disagree. The music created for the show was very fitting
@@Spacebattler for real. Nostalgia baiting is wearing me down
Well it ain't a Battle of the Heroes.
So I can't be the only one that was playing the whole movie in my head right. Like I was even playing the parts
It also hapend to me
"YOU WERE MY BROTHER ANAKIN! I LOVED YOU!" "I HATE YOU!" to this day... remembering that conversation, and how it happened on the screen.. seeing the pain in Obi-wan's eyes... hurt. Star wars (bar the newest entries to the series) is one of the greatest works of art, ever created. then and now.
That beat transition at 7:21 was so smooth to be honest with you
11:14 "It's over, Anakin! I have the high ground!"
When duel of the fates sneaks in during the fight my god the goosebumps
Its insane 🗿
I can see the entire battle just listening to this
You were my brother Anakin, I loved you!. ..Gets me every time
Once you have experienced betrayal/abandonment in your life, this track and scene just hits just so much harder.
I can just SEE Anakin/Darth Vader marching. With conviction in his heart and blood on his hands. Marching up the steps of the Temple. Pacing the catwalks on Mustafar. Nearly drunk on the power he had always before held back, his fate is irrevocably changed. And to meet that Darkness, rises Light. Obi Wan using Padme to track Anakin, finding his brother all but consumed by Vader, and regretfully resorting to the painful duty of fighting him. This song is an absolute masterpiece. May John Williams will always be celebrated.
Who’s watching this epic scene when it comes back in theatres for its 20th anniversary!
Wait! It's coming back to Theaters?! Really?!!! 😮😃😃😃 I will be watching Star Wars Episode III in theaters for its 20th anniversary
Any version of Anakin's Betrayal and Battle of the Heroes give me chills and get me way too emotional.
Awesome, I still remember May 2005 like it were yesterday!
That transition from Anakin vs. Obi-Wan to Duel of the Fates... *chef's kiss* Perfection.
that music when they swinging their lightsaber so fast then force vs force using their hands its so tingling makin my body shaking
Its quite easy to do actually, if u want more info on it just search “Obi-Ani lightsaber spin” and a tutorial will pop up. Its pretty fun
I had no idea that the track ‘Battle of the heroes’ was preluded by so many tracks. I mean it makes perfect sense the song only goes for 4 mins and the final scene is longer than that. But still, extra epic
Personally, I never even noticed that Duel of the Fates played during the final battle until a friend pointed it out to me. I was just so enthralled that I never noticed. Now, it’s one of my absolute favorite parts of the song.
@@xenomorphic7887 omg same, however I did notice the Imperial March part cuz Yoda vs Sidious was starting as a slow fight
The best part is I know exactly what is happening without see the movie
It's quite funny. Just goes to show how much of a fan you are lol.
Same.
same, saw the movie in theater in 2005 when I was 6 (watched the previous 5 movies before on DVD), surreal experience
John Williams is a gift to the world. The Greatest Jedi of all.
Hello Everyone, both of my Star Wars videos have been getting a lot of views lately, and I want to thank everyone who stops by to watch, it means a lot to a small channel like mine :) I plan to work on more Star Wars content, but I just need some ideas first, lol. Again, thank you all for stopping by!
No problem man
Why do they release a separate version for the cs version. Why can’t they just use the original soundtrack?
Why is the cd version completely different from the film version. Why can’t release this film version
@@germophobic5407 why do you keep coming back to complain about the fucking cd version

Слава Советскому Союзу!
I listened to this while fighting one of the hardest bosses I've ever fought in a video game yet: pure vessel.
I did it while listening to this.
Thank you.
And then I listened to this for a bit while doing pantheon 5.
I got to duel of the fates bit at the 40th boss, nkg, and it was EPIC. Sadly I died but ah well
Without a doubt, the best soundtrack that has ever been created in the history of cinema for a movie is that of Star Wars.
My favorite 15 minutes in any form of cinema. The conflict that the whole trilogy has been building towards and it's the greatest fight in the entire saga, then throw this masterpiece of a score over it. It's magical. You can't imagine this scene without the music
Anakin: "You turned her against me!"
Obi-Wan: "No, Anakin, she's literally facing you right now"
Epic plot twist.
"I HATE YOU!!!!" - Anakin Skywalker in Revenge of the Sith.
Maaaaan... I can literally quote this entire movie
When Yoda dropped his walking cane and hold is heart hearing his fellow Jedi getting slaughtered, I felt that….
This is where the fun begins
Maaan, I remember when this finally hit theaters almost 20 years ago, I was so stoked to see what really happened between Anakin and Obi Wan!!!! Just the suspense, the excitement and the heartbreak all at the same time was insane!!! So many people bashed the prequels, but I will take episodes 1, 2, and 3 all day any day and everyday over 7,8, and 9 because Star Wars will never be this dark again as it was in Revenge of the Sith with the exception of Rogue One!!!
Officially part of my morning routine, listening to this suite as I plot my day
"LET HER GO ANAKIN! LET HER GO!"
"YOU TURNED HER AGAINST ME!"
"FUCKING WHAT?! YOU WERE JUST STRANGLING HER! "
"YOU WILL NOT TAKE HER FROM ME!"
"Dude... your eyes are even evil, what are we even talking about here?"
He was high.
9:25 is my personal favorite part of the song.
7:24 is mine and it’s so underrated
@@notBrocker Yeah, that's also a pretty great part.
7:53 cue in one of the best shots in cinema history
12:52 - 13:01 anyone else feel this is the part that sums up the encounter
Flaws and all, this movie (and its score) is an absolute masterpiece. Such a tragic story.
4:46 I will never not see Yoda and Sidious ascending into The Senate when I hear this. Utter chills.
