Couldn’t agree more. I was about 10 the first time I saw the finale of season 2 and tears were streaming down my face as me and my sister watched it. Easily top 3 TV shows ever made.
Tough call, but I think the music in this video helps Becoming, Part 2 even more gut-wrenching. I always thought of it as the "Angel and Buffy Love Theme." It's nice to know the real title. If you listen during season 3, you'll hear snatches of it or places where it is played very slowly and hesitantly. This is the perfect accompaniment to the agony Buffy and Angel face every day. They can never be together. I have to admit "I Will Remember You" poured salt into the wound. It was an exemplary and heartbreaking episode in its own right.
Ohhhh Thankyou!!! Someone other than me mentioning ! Your the first I’ve seen to put this The music “close your eyes” theme by Christophe Beck (legend) combined with Buffys desperation to stop it, begging for more time, insisting she would never forget This was awful don’t get me wrong but that one was oof killer - especially due to the reason it happened Here she had no choice, Angel no clue, but in I will remember you Angel reversing time was him willingly giving up his humanity and life with buffy to carry on helping people, fulfilling his mission and also to protect buffy as he felt being that way put her in danger he couldn’t contend with. Jeez, yet again u hit me in the feels Whedon, damn you, you genius, damn you
Any time the two of them had a sad, painful scene, (which was almost always,) this music really pulled it all together. It's beautiful. Tragically, hauntingly, sorrowful, but beautiful. Much like their story.
@@Nighthawk1066_ then he dies by said vamp (just like his computer versed love interest) and later gets resurrected by him, Faith, Coames and his great aunties (who blamed themselves for not stopping their sister, i.e. his grandma from forcing him into the Council at a very young age)
Darla said "Close your eyes" before she bit Liam and made him into Angelus. Buffy said "Close your eyes" before she skewered him and sent him to Hell. Angel needs to stop doing things beautiful blondes tell him to do.
Cliffy In fact Drusilla is perhaps the biggest crime that haunts angel, he took the purest, most innocent girl in the village and killed everyone she loved, tormented her and drove her to insanity before eventually siring her.
anyone knows buffy, knows season two was the reason why the show will live on forever. best episodes and best season arc that really affected not only characters but viewers and people in the business have been trying recreate shows like buffy because of how powerful this season was,
I am 13. Me, dad and sister watch them together since I was about 9. We are about to finish series 7 (like 4 episodes left). Series 1-3 are my favourites. Buffy and Angel were like the first couple I obsessed over. This song is bringing back all those Buffy/Angel feelings right now.
I've forgotten how much I love this show. This song always used to break my heart whenever it popped up. Especially at the season two finale. Geez, man. Pulls at your heart strings. Buffy and Angel. ♥ xox
+Jennifer Kieljan Well, I liked the melancholic vibe to the song, relationships aren't all rainbows and unicorns, not even the ones that lead to marriage ;- ) Also, Buffy & Angel were 2 shows that we actually both equally enjoyed. For the older attendees it seemed like a classical song, so it was a bit of an inside joke thing to us.
when i was a kid i was watching Buffy,i thought they are a perfect couple, 17 years after i realize i was damn right...i love this show,need to refresh my memory and watch episodes again :)
They kiss. Buffy looks over at the clock. The minute is almost up. Buffy: "No! Oh God. It's not enough time." Angel is crying too now: "Shh, please. Please." The hold each other tightly both crying. Angel: "Please, please." Buffy: "No. I'll never forget. I'll never forget. I'll never forget. I'll never forget." Buffy loved people hard. It broke her heart losing Angel, reconnecting after he regained his soul and losing him again on graduation. Angel knew that after the perfect day she could never move on after that and in some ways never did even when time turned back.
Why would you do this to me? Buffy gets cut off after "I'll never--" Time resets. YesterBuffy is saying, "Given time, we'll both be able to..." Angel's first word finishes both YesterBuffy and ActuallyHappyForOnceInHerLifeAndHeRippedItAllAwayBuffy's sentences: "...forget." Watched it 2 days ago for the first time. I'm still not okay.
BtVS became a classic when Angel lost his soul and the show became a major powerhouse of darkness and emotion. Near the end of S7, Buffy implies that one day she'll be ready to get back with Angel; this is also referenced near the end of Angel S5. At a UK convention about 20 years ago, someone asked who Angel loves more: Buffy or Cordelia. Boreanaz replied "Angel's love is Buffy" and the audience went wild.
When Buffy was on the air I was like 13-14. Saw the show here and there. I got netflix and started to watch it. Im in love with Angel, even Angelus. This song is beautiful. You can hear the innocence of first love, the intense passion and longing. Truly, from what my friends tell me about the show (i became obsessed) Angel does a lot of apperances in Buffy which proves TO ME, that they will always love each other till the end. Stupid Curse!!!!
Love this song so much absolutely the best season on the Buffy. Season 2 will definitely love on forever. No show can create a love as powerful this was one #bangelforever
+Bianca G i agree season 2 is the best season is a quite starer then season 3 is just the aftermath of what they have but seasons 1,2,3 are my favorite
It is so sad that Buffy didn't get to spend the rest of her life with Angel because their love was eternal. But on the other hand the reason why they were torn apart goes down to the fact that they were so similar. Buffy saved the world from evil taking over and so did Angel due to the fact he wanted to repent from his crimes in his Angelus era. Angel had the chance to become human and be the ideal man she wanted, "someone who can take you out into the sun", but he couldn't be that man and save the world. Both of them were heroes and chose the innocents instead because at the end of the day thats what it came down to.
What was sad is that even with the fact that she wanted a man who could taker her out in the sun, she loved him enough that she was willing to give up that dream for him.
I guess.... That is based solely on the cross over episode where she came to LA and they got to "be together" and he got to be human again.. What I don't get is why he couldn't do what spike did and choose to undergo the trials to earn his soul back on purpose. As much as I loved Angel and Buffy, I felt Spike loved her more to do what he did from not having a soul at all, to actively seeking one. And he got to remain powerful vamp.
This song brings up so many thoughts, feelings, and memories. It makes me sad, but then I remember that B/A are one-of-a-kind. That makes me happy. Though B/A don't exist in real life, they will always exist in my heart & mind. B/A will ALWAYS mean so much to me. The messages and meanings in nearly every episode say a lot. Though I get teary thinking about some of their moments, especially those when this song was played...epic stories such as this are mean to be celebrated. GO BUFFY AND ANGEL!
My ending to Buffy should have had this song playing and fast forward to Buffy's grave and she died an old lady and standing above her grave looking at the tombstone should have been Angel and then he walks away. Shows that their love is eternal..... Or they could have just fast forward to an old Buffy rocking in a chair by the fire and someone comes in to the house and it's Angel and he says hi honey and they've been married all these years and he doesn't care that she's old
Stephen Martell No... I get that you're a bangel shipper and all, but the Buffy ending was symbolising Buffy becoming an adult. The whole series is symbolising a teenager going into adulthood and by doing what you have suggested above would've ruined the purpose. Plus, they have both moved on! (Aaaand Angel is best with Cordelia along with Buffy and Spike.)
+NarutoFirestarLoLz that's bullshit, Cordelia was just a good friend. The only reason they put Angel with Cordelia is because they needed Angel to have a love interest for ratings. Why do you think they totally killed Cordelia's character right at the moment she realized she loved Angel? Because they realized they made a huge mistake LOL. Plus Cordelia is DEAD and is never coming back. They never had a romantic relationship and never will because she's dead as hell, like really dead, not Buffy dead. Also let me point out that while Cordelia was lying in a coma Angel was making out with Buffy and fighting with Spike over who loves Buffy/who Buffy loves more. When Buffy died Angel had to go away to a monastery for a few months to recover. When Cordelia died he started dating a werewolf two episodes later. It's clear that after Cordelia came back in season 4 he had moved on from her. Even Cordelia said that they weren't meant to be together. Cordelia was one of his best friends and that's what Angel sees her as. Another one of his loved ones that died, like Fred. Angel knew Cordelia was never the love of his life or his girlfriend. The "Cangel" ship sank the moment it set sail. Stop trying to hold onto a relationship that never was and never will be
Brooke Bathory Jesus Christ someone is going a bit overboard with this XD I was just stating an opinion. Clearly you think otherwise but hey ho. Cangel is a good ship, imo. I put that in the end to lighten things up. And I said lots of other things besides Cangel... You literally just told me that Angel and Cordelia didn't happen over and over again (which it actually did for a few brief moments) :/ Not going to comment on anything else besides that??
It's been a while since I last watched Buffy and I remember liking this theme, it was very sweet and sad and I wanted to hear it again, and, as I said it's been a while, and I didn't remembered quite well what happened and the reasons why Buffy and Angel couldn't be together and when 2:07 hit.... I suddenly remembered why, and I cried like a baby...
"So, I-I told him that I loved him... and I kissed him... and I killed him. That's why I ran away without telling anyone. I just couldn't deal with it. "
She never said " that's why I ran away..." ( unless that's in a bonus scene). She said, "I don't know if that helps with your spell. I've held on to that for so long it felt good to...." And then Will offered to help with the spell and Giles just plainly stated.." There is no spell"...I love this show more then life that I plan on my last words being "Buffy rules" - not even joking.
@scuffla I completely agree. Season 2 of BtVS is my favorite season of any show, ever. No season or show will ever match the emotion, the shock, the pain of season 2.
sometimes there is music that brings such pain but is so beautiful too!! Thank you Christopher Beck for this wonderful piece. Who need lyrics...when music alone can be so expressive! by the way im glad im not the only one who cries when listening to this!
Buffy: "I killed Angel! Do you even remember that? I would have given up everything I had to be with - I loved him more than I will ever love anything in this life. And I put a sword through his heart because I had to." Selfless- season 7 episode 5
Really want to Say Our ThankS to Buffythevampireslayer Creator for Such a powerful Seasons/great Casting too. Angel/Buffy power couple will always be RememberEd. perfection. I watched it whn i was in my teens. #lovefromYear2015
This is such a great theme, I really wish they ended up together, shame it ended to tragically, but I guess that's what makes the relationship more memorable, more precious. I even still think Xander and Willow should have ended up together, too. back in the early episodes they blended so well, and they were so close that one night until that vampire had to ruin their kiss. But Angel and Buffy = Epic win.
For me the greatest charm of the show was Angel and Buffy's relationship. It was SUCH a powerful romance that you fell in love with them as they fell for each other and you felt torn up inside when they went through all their trials. But you know what I realized? Even though part of the reason Buffy wasn't as good in the later seasons was because Angel was gone, it would have started getting bad anyway, and it's possible that the fire that was Buffy/Angel would have been lost.
Just finished watching Frozen, had to see what all the hype was about, and freaked out right at the end when I saw that the music was composed by Christopher Beck. Well, I had no choice then but to search for this bit of music :o)
I'm nowhere near the target demographic for Frozen, so I was shocked when one day I saw Christophe's credit for him, having had his music as part of growing up with Buffy! Similar moment when I realised that Alan Menken who wrote Little Shop of Horrors (a childhood favourite) was the guy who did a ton of memorable Disney scores later, too (and of course, the *amazing* Galavant).
Buffy and Angel is probably better but spike as a whole is a better character then Angel and is probably the most well written character in the entire show. His arc and his redemption story through the last 4 seasons is one of the best I’ve seen. And his monologue at the end of season 7 episode 2 is one of the best monologues I’ve ever seen Angel doesn’t compare
The Twilight romance is basically a poor rip off of Buffy and Angel's romance, except there's no reason for Bella and Edward to be drawn together. For Buffy and Angel, Buffy is the slayer. Angel is a vampire with a soul. It's these burdens they carry that brought them together, that bound them together and in some ways, that keep them apart. Edward is drawn to Bella because...she smells good? Bella is drawn to Edward because he stalks her and stares at her awkwardly? Rant over.
I wish i could share your post ***** because you are so right! Buffy and angel made it real because their love was forbidden. Bella and Edward's romance was a typical love triangle there wasnt a triangle between buffy angel and spike because buffy never truly fell in love again her love was angel and will always be angel no matter the circumstances.
Buffy and Angel aren't why Twilight is awful; Twilight does that all by itself. They do, however, showcase just how bad it is by being a shining example of the correct way to depict this romance.
Then you have the cruel Irony of Angel calling himself Twilight in complete disguise and the darkest moments to come from it: 206 dead Scythe activated Slayers (whether those we met on screen/on panel or not) and a dead ex-Watcher (though got better but de-aged for a time before restored to his proper age)
I just watched Angel season 1 episode 8: I will remember you. Damn they are the best pairing in the history of TV series. Just like Romeo & Juliet. I cried watching the ending of that episode...again.
I'm going thru the pictures on my laptop, and there are a lot, but I downloaded a meme, it's a picture of Joss Wheadon. It says: You've emotionally invested yourself into one of my characters? Here let me kill them for you." That's when 2:05 hit me. I'm trying not to cry!
"The bottom line is, even if you don't see them coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change. Not really. But it does. So, what are we - helpless? Puppets? No - the big moments are going to come; you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are." - Whistler, Becoming Pt. 1
When I listen this song, It remembers me their love story. It was a great serie. I wish they had other opportunity. The song is sad, like their love that never could be.
Tears in my eyes! Me and my sister recently started buying the dvds, then at the same moment we remembered the music, and the memories came flooding back.
omg this theme... i looked for it since years!!!!! thanks a lot! i was,i think like all girls inloved xith angel and i cryied soooo much with all angel/buffy story.... thanks a lot for this !
This is just so emotional, I cry every time I hear this song cus there are so many memories, I ship Bangel and Spuffy bcus they are just perfect but I don't think Riley was right for Buffy. I love this song it's just...
I remember watching this scene when buffy kills angel and i thought: this show is better than I ever imagined, no happy ending for the season and an incredible perfomance of sarah
Can ya just IMAGINE how beautiful Buffy's and Angel's kids would be?! I mean, if he was able to have children, and all (though we find he did have a son in eps of "Angel").
@@shady_the_one The theory is that Buffy conceived Connor during IWRY, but was unable to carry him due to Angel reversing time. The PTB refused to destroy his life so they tied his soul to Angel. The first woman Angel slept with would then become pregnant and carry Connor, AKA Darla.
I first discovered buffy when my dad was on house arrest back when it came out and he called me from his mom's and he was watching it. So I turned it on to watch it with him.. it's been my comfort show ever since. I'm now 32 and every time I'm in a mental state, I have to watch it. 😢 buffy is my soul.
For true Buffy & Angel fans: I almost broke down crying when this happened-the song kind of does that. The piano notes play such a sad song...sniffle... For anyone who doesn't think it's sad, just think...could you stab your one true love through the heart with a sword? Dooming him or her to HELL for all eternity? (Given, he didn't stay forever, and it was that or send the rest of the world into Hell.) Either way, it's a sad, sad decision. The whole Angel-vampire curse thing is just sad... :'(
Everytime I heard this song on the show i thought "i love this song, i wonder what it's called." I first watched buffy like 3 years ago and today is when i finally typed into the youtube search bar "Bufy and Angel theme" and this was the first one so yay :)
buffy is SUCH a wonderful tv series!!!! i totally love it and buffy&angel are soo cute together. i watched the dvd's like a 100 times and i can't get enough... and this song is so beautiful, but it sounds so sad!
This was me and my girlfriends song at the time because she liked the show buffy and i liked the show angel i remberd we played this out 1 time and she just balled i asked her if she was ok and she said it would really hurt her if she really had to do that lol young love ha
The entire premise was not just "high school as hell". The entire show was a metaphor for growing up, leaving behind childhood and embracing adulthood, or growing into yourself. With this comes new challenges, new anxieties. Life doesn't stop at/after high school and neither did the show.
🥺🥺🥺🥺😢😭 los veo y me dan ganas de llorar , es que sufrieron tanto para poder estar juntos y nunca lo lograban , me da pena y rabia, lograban emocionarme hasta las lágrimas , me habría encantado que hubieran sido pareja en la vida real y al menos ahí haber logrado estar juntos y felices al fin , la persona que escribió el guión debería haberlos dejado juntos al final , no creo que yo sea la única que piensa eso

Season two of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is without question the most sentimental and emotional of the whole series.
Couldn’t agree more. I was about 10 the first time I saw the finale of season 2 and tears were streaming down my face as me and my sister watched it. Easily top 3 TV shows ever made.
@@kmyattjr same, I watch the series every year and try to relive those sweet memories when I crushed so hard on Sarah Michelle Gellar 😅
IT Just Kills You
@@grumpyoldmen2502 considering the tragedy she experienced, knowing the choice is there, but it puts our morality into question.
i disagree. its 5 for me
I think their most heart wrenching moment was at the end of "I will remember you" in season 1 of Angel.
BenignAndaHalf yes yes yes😢
Tough call, but I think the music in this video helps Becoming, Part 2 even more gut-wrenching. I always thought of it as the "Angel and Buffy Love Theme." It's nice to know the real title.
If you listen during season 3, you'll hear snatches of it or places where it is played very slowly and hesitantly. This is the perfect accompaniment to the agony Buffy and Angel face every day. They can never be together.
I have to admit "I Will Remember You" poured salt into the wound. It was an exemplary and heartbreaking episode in its own right.
Ohhhh Thankyou!!! Someone other than me mentioning ! Your the first I’ve seen to put this
The music “close your eyes” theme by Christophe Beck (legend) combined with Buffys desperation to stop it, begging for more time, insisting she would never forget
This was awful don’t get me wrong but that one was oof killer - especially due to the reason it happened
Here she had no choice, Angel no clue, but in I will remember you Angel reversing time was him willingly giving up his humanity and life with buffy to carry on helping people, fulfilling his mission and also to protect buffy as he felt being that way put her in danger he couldn’t contend with.
Jeez, yet again u hit me in the feels Whedon, damn you, you genius, damn you
Was that the episode he she said
Buffy "you hit me!"
Angel " well not to get all kindergarten but you hit me first."
No, that was in the episode “sanctuary”. “I will remember you” was the first episode Buffy was in.
Any time the two of them had a sad, painful scene, (which was almost always,) this music really pulled it all together. It's beautiful. Tragically, hauntingly, sorrowful, but beautiful.
Much like their story.
nah. u just bad taste. theme is horribru.
a vampire in love with a slayer...its rather poetic

Wasn't Angel sired by Drusilla? Sorry for my rudeness if I'm wrong

Other way around.
Thanks it's been a while since I've watched Buffy

tidusmi2 to be fair she was already totally crazy as a human lol
One of the greatest pairs of TV shows ever made.
Maxx Indeed is.
Not even the greatest pair in the tv show
Season 2 was the best season, partly because of this
Season 2's by far my favorite season.

Same here too!!! Also it was hard to deal seeing Angel being bad when the curse was broken. Broke my heart😢😢😢😢😢

All seasons are on netflix.
me too, and I´m totally excited again like 20 years before . :D
this hurts my heart. so nostalgic
They kiss. Buffy looks over at the clock. The minute is almost up.

"I'll never--"

I said that in my first comment as an opinion, like I said before... :/
Didn['t expect the song to hit me that quick. Reminds me of the end of season 2.
It's been a while since I last watched Buffy and I remember liking this theme, it was very sweet and sad and I wanted to hear it again, and, as I said it's been a while, and I didn't remembered quite well what happened and the reasons why Buffy and Angel couldn't be together and when 2:07 hit.... I suddenly remembered why, and I cried like a baby...
"So, I-I told him that I loved him... and I kissed him... and I killed him. That's why I ran away without telling anyone. I just couldn't deal with it. "
She never said " that's why I ran away..." ( unless that's in a bonus scene). She said, "I don't know if that helps with your spell. I've held on to that for so long it felt good to...." And then Will offered to help with the spell and Giles just plainly stated.." There is no spell"...I love this show more then life that I plan on my last words being "Buffy rules" - not even joking.
2020 in lockdown reliving Buffy and how heartbreaking S2 was
My beautiful heartwrenching couple
@scuffla I completely agree. Season 2 of BtVS is my favorite season of any show, ever. No season or show will ever match the emotion, the shock, the pain of season 2.
I always love Buffy & Angel.. FOREVER! ♥♥
Si😭
sometimes there is music that brings such pain but is so beautiful too!! Thank you Christopher Beck for this wonderful piece. Who need lyrics...when music alone can be so expressive! by the way im glad im not the only one who cries when listening to this!
Does it not kill anyone else to know that the name of Buffy and Angel's theme is "Close Your Eyes"
+Krystle Martin Right before she skewers him with a sword, yes.
+Krystle Martin Even after all this time, yeas it does :(
+Krystle Martin Yeah I can't not cry at the line in the show either.
Angel's really gotta stop listening to hot blondes when they tell him to close his eyes.
Yes it is tragic
I agree that they were the golden years of Buffy. To me season 2 and 3 will always be the best, but then again I'm also a major Bangel fan :)
OMG, i want to cry....
Buffy: "I killed Angel! Do you even remember that? I would have given up everything I had to be with - I loved him more than I will ever love anything in this life. And I put a sword through his heart because I had to." Selfless- season 7 episode 5
Really want to Say Our ThankS to Buffythevampireslayer Creator for Such a powerful Seasons/great Casting too. Angel/Buffy power couple will always be RememberEd. perfection. I watched it whn i was in my teens. #lovefromYear2015
My thoughts and feelings! #From2016! I'm rewartching it again ...
This is such a great theme, I really wish they ended up together, shame it ended to tragically, but I guess that's what makes the relationship more memorable, more precious. I even still think Xander and Willow should have ended up together, too. back in the early episodes they blended so well, and they were so close that one night until that vampire had to ruin their kiss. But Angel and Buffy = Epic win.
For me the greatest charm of the show was Angel and Buffy's relationship. It was SUCH a powerful romance that you fell in love with them as they fell for each other and you felt torn up inside when they went through all their trials.
But you know what I realized? Even though part of the reason Buffy wasn't as good in the later seasons was because Angel was gone, it would have started getting bad anyway, and it's possible that the fire that was Buffy/Angel would have been lost.
Rewatching 2020 and this song still makes me cry xx
Still 2022
Just finished watching Frozen, had to see what all the hype was about, and freaked out right at the end when I saw that the music was composed by Christopher Beck. Well, I had no choice then but to search for this bit of music :o)
I'm nowhere near the target demographic for Frozen, so I was shocked when one day I saw Christophe's credit for him, having had his music as part of growing up with Buffy! Similar moment when I realised that Alan Menken who wrote Little Shop of Horrors (a childhood favourite) was the guy who did a ton of memorable Disney scores later, too (and of course, the *amazing* Galavant).
It gives me goose bumps!
I know a lot of people prefer spike and Buffy but for me Angel and Buffy bring all the feels of first love
Buffy and Angel is probably better but spike as a whole is a better character then Angel and is probably the most well written character in the entire show. His arc and his redemption story through the last 4 seasons is one of the best I’ve seen. And his monologue at the end of season 7 episode 2 is one of the best monologues I’ve ever seen Angel doesn’t compare
I love this song. It embraces all the love, all the pain, all the yearning and loss. It's perfect.
Watching Buffy in 2020, and crying every single time i listen this song.
Great show, i miss this quality so much today...
just listening to this brings back all the memories.
Suprise, innocence, passions...... becoming part 1 and 2.
The love between Buffy and Angel, is the reason why Twilight is so cheesy.
The Twilight romance is basically a poor rip off of Buffy and Angel's romance, except there's no reason for Bella and Edward to be drawn together. For Buffy and Angel, Buffy is the slayer. Angel is a vampire with a soul. It's these burdens they carry that brought them together, that bound them together and in some ways, that keep them apart.
Edward is drawn to Bella because...she smells good? Bella is drawn to Edward because he stalks her and stares at her awkwardly?
Rant over.
I wish i could share your post ***** because you are so right! Buffy and angel made it real because their love was forbidden. Bella and Edward's romance was a typical love triangle there wasnt a triangle between buffy angel and spike because buffy never truly fell in love again her love was angel and will always be angel no matter the circumstances.
Buffy and Angel aren't why Twilight is awful; Twilight does that all by itself. They do, however, showcase just how bad it is by being a shining example of the correct way to depict this romance.
Then you have the cruel Irony of Angel calling himself Twilight in complete disguise and the darkest moments to come from it: 206 dead Scythe activated Slayers (whether those we met on screen/on panel or not) and a dead ex-Watcher (though got better but de-aged for a time before restored to his proper age)
@@emmaayres4583 ya, like the said Spike has only a place in her heart, because he became a nice person but she always be Angel s girl!
Ah, the 90's...
+Ginamarie Iezzi yah, bloody good times. I have seen this show, cheesy, albeit relatively good.
They were the perfect couple, the struggles, the separation just made it mean more. Long live the days of Buffy & Angel ❤️
I just watched Angel season 1 episode 8: I will remember you. Damn they are the best pairing in the history of TV series. Just like Romeo & Juliet. I cried watching the ending of that episode...again.
7 years now and still coming back to have a listen. So far timeless and such a beautiful song not my normal kind of music but still very very good
I'm going thru the pictures on my laptop, and there are a lot, but I downloaded a meme, it's a picture of Joss Wheadon. It says: You've emotionally invested yourself into one of my characters? Here let me kill them for you." That's when 2:05 hit me.
I'm trying not to cry!
I'm crying ugh this show is life
best. love theme. ever.... EVER
At every point in both shows thatnthis music is played i cried.
oh god I still love this couple after all this years
2:08 right in the feels
"The bottom line is, even if you don't see them coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change. Not really. But it does. So, what are we - helpless? Puppets? No - the big moments are going to come; you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are."
- Whistler, Becoming Pt. 1
I hope they get their happy ending in the comics!
this song makes me cry every time i hear it... *sob* poor angel and buffy....
When I listen this song, It remembers me their love story. It was a great serie. I wish they had other opportunity. The song is sad, like their love that never could be.
We were Lucky to be part of this generation
Uma das músicas mais lindas da época.
True
Tears in my eyes!
Me and my sister recently started buying the dvds, then at the same moment we remembered the music, and the memories came flooding back.
i totally agree with you! im soo in love with Angel! i wish he hadnt left and that him and Buffy had stayed together! =]
omg this theme... i looked for it since years!!!!! thanks a lot! i was,i think like all girls inloved xith angel and i cryied soooo much with all angel/buffy story.... thanks a lot for this !
This is just so emotional, I cry every time I hear this song cus there are so many memories, I ship Bangel and Spuffy bcus they are just perfect but I don't think Riley was right for Buffy. I love this song it's just...
Mia Gregory thank! You! Sod Riley
Emotions.. omg, so much emotions it's hard to breathe when I listen to this song.
I remember watching this scene when buffy kills angel and i thought: this show is better than I ever imagined, no happy ending for the season and an incredible perfomance of sarah
the best theme for these too
memory...♥
This song gives me chills. Buffy and Angel's relationship is epic.
Every moment with Buffy and Angel is breathtaking ;) romantic and cute; ) and this magnificent music 😮
Can ya just IMAGINE how beautiful Buffy's and Angel's kids would be?! I mean, if he was able to have children, and all (though we find he did have a son in eps of "Angel").
Hairmetallurgist They would be gorgeous. I’m very much in love with the theory that Buffy was truly Connor’s mom.
@@mitkit99 okay but how does that work
@@shady_the_one The theory is that Buffy conceived Connor during IWRY, but was unable to carry him due to Angel reversing time. The PTB refused to destroy his life so they tied his soul to Angel. The first woman Angel slept with would then become pregnant and carry Connor, AKA Darla.
@@mitkit99 that actually explains everything
love this great theme score ♥
this song makes me cry every time, i love it. my favorite tv pairing ever
I first discovered buffy when my dad was on house arrest back when it came out and he called me from his mom's and he was watching it. So I turned it on to watch it with him.. it's been my comfort show ever since. I'm now 32 and every time I'm in a mental state, I have to watch it. 😢 buffy is my soul.
For true Buffy & Angel fans: I almost broke down crying when this happened-the song kind of does that. The piano notes play such a sad song...sniffle...
For anyone who doesn't think it's sad, just think...could you stab your one true love through the heart with a sword? Dooming him or her to HELL for all eternity? (Given, he didn't stay forever, and it was that or send the rest of the world into Hell.) Either way, it's a sad, sad decision.
The whole Angel-vampire curse thing is just sad... :'(
Oh my gosh this song makes me want to cry 😭 so bad that I love it ❤❤❤❤❤
Not as much as Sarah McLachlan's Full of Grace, which plays straight after Buffy has to kill Angel 😭😭😭😭
This music always gives me goosebumps. It's very simple and so very sad at the same time.
Lloro cada vez que escucho esta melodía
Oh god, this piece is just so fucking beautiful and sad and omfg ;~;
I cried the first time I saw it. My wife said, "You're such a wuss" and I reply, "What, are those fake tears coming out of yours?"
Everytime I heard this song on the show i thought "i love this song, i wonder what it's called." I first watched buffy like 3 years ago and today is when i finally typed into the youtube search bar "Bufy and Angel theme" and this was the first one so yay :)
buffy is SUCH a wonderful tv series!!!! i totally love it and buffy&angel are soo cute together. i watched the dvd's like a 100 times and i can't get enough... and this song is so beautiful, but it sounds so sad!
This was me and my girlfriends song at the time because she liked the show buffy and i liked the show angel i remberd we played this out 1 time and she just balled i asked her if she was ok and she said it would really hurt her if she really had to do that lol young love ha
IMO Buffy was its best in the first 3 seasons. I never bought any other relationship after Angel.
the entire premise was "high school as hell". No school, no teenage anxieties - no show, really.
I agree... that's why I've only the first four seasons on dvd ^^ ... I like Spike but Angel is/was the only right man for her
But... but... but Season 5!
The entire premise was not just "high school as hell". The entire show was a metaphor for growing up, leaving behind childhood and embracing adulthood, or growing into yourself. With this comes new challenges, new anxieties. Life doesn't stop at/after high school and neither did the show.
True, the show was great but nothing really touches season 2 in my opinion any ways.
This is truly the only song that actually tugs on my heart strings!
This makes me cry my eyes out EVERY. TIMES.
If you watch the non-canon Buffy Movie, Lothos tells Buffy to close her eyes before he's about to kill her!
makes me cry every time :'(:'( and you have to try really hard to make me cry
+Buffy Summers And that's why SMG thinks you should stick with this vampire instead of the other one.
soooo beatiful and makes me cry nearly everytime i listen to it.
Angel & Buffy forever!
🥺🥺🥺🥺😢😭 los veo y me dan ganas de llorar , es que sufrieron tanto para poder estar juntos y nunca lo lograban , me da pena y rabia, lograban emocionarme hasta las lágrimas , me habría encantado que hubieran sido pareja en la vida real y al menos ahí haber logrado estar juntos y felices al fin , la persona que escribió el guión debería haberlos dejado juntos al final , no creo que yo sea la única que piensa eso
Leíste lo que dijeron sobre Buffy? 😡
@@ele_piccola_fatina4319 noo 😮 cuéntame por favor 🙏🏻
@@maiteignacia29 quien merecia ser violada 😡😡
Just beautiful isn't it...Memories of the times when it Buffy and Angel, After Angel left show kinda got a bit dull
this song makes me cry everytime i hear it!!! I feel so much for Buffy
It reminds me of the Angel episode "I Will Remember You"... Had to cry.
