Honestly Optimus Prime and Darth Vader are an interesting pair of characters to compare and contrast against. Optimus Prime, a machine who has so much humanity because he is strong yet gentle soul. Anakin/Vader, a man who lost his humanity for love and became a machine full of rage, self-hatred, and pain. A machine with a human soul vs a man whose more machine than human, twisted and evil
I was also thinking about how this shows the mechanical parts as neutral where as thier character determines whether or not one is good or bad. Kinda of beautiful in that regard.
I’ve always wondered what an interaction between the two would be like. I imagine Optimus seeing Vader in a similar light that Luke did, not an unfathomable evil, but a broken soul. Both are warriors whose fight all but destroyed everything they held dear, and I imagine Prime would be able to bestow some parting wisdom that would guide Vader back to the light, to hold on to hope.

Even if you arent in the fandoms, this song cover. No, this masterpiece will bring tears to your eyes, ive listened to this on repeat for a couple hours now, and it still gets to me
@@asherlennon most likely because phone speakers give a different quality than pc speakers. I'm gonna play this bad boy on my gaming rig for even better speakers lol
It’s amazing to think how much these two have in common both fighting for their own vision of a better version of their worlds. Vader trying to bring peace to the force and Optimus fighting for a better Cybertron.
These two singing this is just beautiful! Both are pop culture icons, traumatically scarred war veterans, military commanding officers who have led armies, and have experienced many a tragedy. Optimus went from the archivist of Iacon to the leader of the Autobots, anx Vader went from a slave to a Jedi and then to a fallen hero/Sith Lord before his redemption. Tbh if both of them met, I feel Optimus, being the compassionate and optimistic soul and a lover of all life, would try to help being out the good in the depressed, angry, and nihilistic Vader, even if he is unable to. Yet that would be one hell of a crossover, that's for sure.
It seems Optimus can't really cover lower notes, but excels at the higher ones. Vader on the other hand has a full vocal range. Excellent harmony when they both sing though. A true work of art.
It's because after TF07, Voice directors only every let Cullen do half an octave for His optimus voice, thus, he excells at thoes notes and can't hit others very well
Actually the original song is by Simon & Garfunkel, which I have the impression that many tend to forget. So I think they deserve the same respect as Draiman, Cullen and Jones.😉
IM IN LOVE...This brings so much dopamine. Seriously makes the static in my head quiet and is peaceful up there for a while. I'm in tears.literal tears. Thank you Thank you thank you
Thousands of years of evolution, creation, thinking, inventions of computers and AI - all led to this epic moment of creation of this amazing song, with the voices of two my childhood heroes. Thank you so much for this!
Two old machines from separate eras, yet both obsolete by modern standards, join forces, not to exterminate mankind, but rather... ...to beg mankind to preserve the legacy of the machines that once protected them from extinction.
Wow I have Hurd lots of versions of this song but wow this one gave me goosebumps bumps because if you close your eyes you can picture Optimus prime and Vader singing a song Love it
Love this version and I like Disturbed’s version better than the original. Grew up listening to Simon and Garfunkel sing it. Gotta give credit to them as well.
I AM ALTERING THE SONG. PRAY I DON’T ALTER IT ANY FURTHER!
BWAHAHAHAHHAHA PERFECT!!!!
This song deserves recognition and respect.
Well done sir!
THAT'S JUST PRIME!
Dude James earl Jones and Peter Cullen need to be shown this. This is badass.
This comment wins the internet
Darth Vader standing in front of Padme’s tomb, Optimus Prime staring out at a cold and lifeless Cybertron… and both breakout into song
It's exactly how I envisaged the video clip. Someone has to he abke to do that as a music video
Wow..
or from the WfC series standing over Elita's grave.
Dammmn.....😓
❤❤❤
I wonder if we could convince Peter Cullen, James Earl Jones, and Disturbed to come together to make this song a reality.
Isn’t James Earl Jones dead?
@@logeyperogi1805 What?No
@@logeyperogi1805 the guy inside the darth vader suit died, but the VA (earl jones) is still alive
xxD yeah sure, we could try
@@logeyperogi1805Not yet, but back to back articles about his life this past month had me worried.
Them: How many times did you listen to this?
Me: Yes
Them: How many times is yes?
Me: All of them.
About 12 times so far...I can't seem to stop. It's got my adrenaline going!
Just like 27 times, and counting

The song actually fits both of their backstory.
👍
you are right

Bro casually dropped the deepest collaboration of our generation
Also fun fact for Vader, his suit was intentionally made to continually piss him off.
Best comment here!

I never thought a sentient truck and a cyborg warlord could bring me to tears. Imagine if this duo did hurt from Jonny Cash. Bravo, bravo.
.....uh oh.... now look what you've done....
I'd listen to that
@@SquirrelDaddo it
@@Charcoal_83Please!!
The Nine Inch Nails version of Hurt would be better since it's the original.
Bro dropped the hardest song ever and thought we wouldn’t notice
1980: In the future, we'll have flying cars
2024:
This is so much better😂
Flying cars wouldn't make me feel a thing
People can’t drive on roads, I’m very glad there aren’t flying cars
To be fair, this is way better than flying cars.
we have flying cars, just not for commercial sell, tons of various versions of driving car that can fly
I’m so glad AI is being used to make stuff like this instead of provoking World War III or sumthn
*AI constructs a representation of a poker face*
Why not both?
When people made a computer that could speak, they taught it how to sing. This isn't any different
It’s doing both
Vader singing "when my eyes were stabbed by a neon light, that split the night" just hits right in that feeling spot.
1000000000%
insert blaster or lightsaber noises.

PLEASE
IT GOES TOO FUCKING HARD
Agreed
Yes
This eeds to be on Spotify now!
You just made a grown ass man tear up less than 4 minutes. You need a Grammy Award.
RIP James Earl Jones
This gives me Johnny Cash hurt feels. The worn out old man.
Have you heard the Johnny Cash AI cover of Sound of Silence by Vicarious?
I’ll wear out your old man
This is why the internet exists.
Optimus Prime at 1:35 was majestic
Vader at 1:42 follows it just absolutely *PERFECTLY* too
It was all majestic. The whole thing.
That harmony at 1:55
There are some major feels here, and with the loss of James Earle Jones this brought a tear to my eyes. This is an example of where ai shines.
We are neither ready nor worthy
Even if you arent in the fandoms, this song cover. No, this masterpiece will bring tears to your eyes, ive listened to this on repeat for a couple hours now, and it still gets to me
RIP James Earl Jones 😢
Holy shit, I was skeptical at first, but
THAT HARMONY THO
The greatest duet we never knew we needed
We need to get Peter Cullen and James Earl Jones together and do this for real
I think James died sadly but I would love Peter Cullen to sing us some songs
@@PotatoAustin no he's alive 93 yrs old
That's one hundred percent fact we totally do
@@mikesyck2624 he is alive but retired from voice acting permanently. Sold the rights of imitating his voice to an ukrainian AI company
@@PotatoAustinwell, i guess you werent too far off. Rest in peace James
The ultimate collab we never deserved but got
🗿
3:05 wow hearing Vader sing “to the neon God they made” was super epic 😂
Anakin finding redemption in Optimus Prime
That would be a very sad but beautiful alternative story, tbh.
When dark Vader says struck by a flash of neon light I never new I could feel goosebumps like that almost like he was always ment to sing this lol
The "neon God they made" line from Vader fits.
This song always hits the nerves
Darth*
@@Spectre3554Dark Father*
“Take my arms that I might reach you.”
*Dooku in Episode II*: “Sure thing fam.”

When they harmonize it sounds ethereal
I didn't know that this needed to exist but I'm glad it does now
The fact that the A.I voices of both characters are spot on makes this cover even more fire 🔥

Now I want it to be a trio with the Arbiter. This is perfect, but that would be another kind of perfect.
Bro Keith David has such a badass voice. His spawn character was next level.
@@bearman9033could not agree more
Yes! The contrast of a non-synthetic voice would be amazing

Almost made me cry.... whole time in my minds eye anakin was at padmes' tomb and optimis was looking over a slowly fading cybertron
This has now become one of my most favorite things ever, please never delete it
Growing up with these titans in movies and comics. This is absolutely masterful.
This goes unreasonably hard.
This was a fun collab. I look forward to working with prime again
This hits different now that James has passed, gonna be a whole new wave of feels when Peter goes 😢
Me *sits in shocked awe*
Them "He understood the assignment"
Here from a random IG Reel. Anyone else?
Same here
FACTS😂😂😂
Tik Tok for me... But wow you sure feel this one
Here from tiktok
Here from Facebook reels and wow that really fits them both!😢
This is epic, but imagine both actors actually singing this song in the original voices
Today this song has a new meaning rest in peace
Their voices in unison went surprisingly hard.
This scratches a part of my brain that I didn't know itched. Thank you for this.

This is absolutely beautiful. We need more songs from this duo.
Did the disturbed version, absolutely legendary
People can say what they will about AI but this was amazing
Vader sounds awesome. In the quiet parts you can hear his breathing during his words. It's very close to the move lol
I didnt know my life needed this so badly.
Saw this on a Instagram reel, i came running to hear this. Not disappointed.
Actually the original song is by Simon & Garfunkel, which I have the impression that many tend to forget. So I think they deserve the same respect as Draiman, Cullen and Jones.😉
True, but it was Draiman's voice I used as the base for the track
And now my thirsting soul has been quenched.
How? How can this be so perfect...in so many ways?!
The dynamic duo we didn't know we needed.
They both need to get together and do this. Holy shit.
IM IN LOVE...This brings so much dopamine. Seriously makes the static in my head quiet and is peaceful up there for a while. I'm in tears.literal tears. Thank you Thank you thank you
at first it sounded like megatron then it slowly morphed into optimus... i love it
The harmony is unmatched!😮😮
I’ve got chills. Incredible
The culmination of 13.8 billion years. 🥹🫡
ok... what the hell, this gave me chills like never before. especially that part where both of them are singing together
Shivers through the whole song, this is amazing
It's like James earl Jones and petter Collin are singing with there characters in perfect tone!
*Peter Cullen
I didn't know I needed something this much till I got this. WOW
Definitely an homage to the original singers, heck of a way to do it! definitely worth a listen.
Thousands of years of evolution, creation, thinking, inventions of computers and AI - all led to this epic moment of creation of this amazing song, with the voices of two my childhood heroes. Thank you so much for this!
this song was cooked very well with this to voices
Just when you thought nothing can be better than David Draiman 😂
Two old machines from separate eras, yet both obsolete by modern standards, join forces, not to exterminate mankind, but rather...
...to beg mankind to preserve the legacy of the machines that once protected them from extinction.
A Vader breath at the end would be the most amazing thing ever
RIP James earl Jones. May the force be with you
Why... WHY... am I listening to this on repeat?
Oh my god, that was beyond awesome. Could feel my soul sing
Ngl, thought this song wouldn’t go as hard, but damn did it cook…
Who else is here right after hearing the news? RIP James Earl Jones.
"People writing songs that voices never share" 😲
I am disturbed by how good this was.
Some Vader breathing would've been AWESOME!
Only two songs I've ever listened to that can get me all teary. This is one of em.
Wow I have Hurd lots of versions of this song but wow this one gave me goosebumps bumps because if you close your eyes you can picture Optimus prime and Vader singing a song
Love it
Omg I saw it yesterday and all I could think about was when will it be out and finally it's here the best ai cover ever
Best duo
Dear God this gave me chills as ten year old me hears the iconic tones and the adult me takes in the meaning of the lyrics...all at once...fuck..
WTF THIS WAS SO GOOD 😭
This gave me freaking goosebumps!!!!! I bow and tip
My hat to you sir. The force is strong in you.
This has gotten far fewer views than it deserves. This is hands down the best ai cover I’ve ever heard
Love this version and I like Disturbed’s version better than the original. Grew up listening to Simon and Garfunkel sing it. Gotta give credit to them as well.
I didn't know how bad I needed this.
