You may have already heard this, but Tyler wrote this song after being with his grandmother when she passed away. He said that he made sure that it fit with the scene also but it was ultimately about his grandmother and everything he experienced with her and her passing.
I feel the studio version is very emotional. It's not all about the scream. I love the frailty in his delivery. He is very good at conveying pain and loss.
The way the vulnerability of his voice is traslated so well in the studio version. Like he is slowly breaking. He went to that recording and gived his 100%. I feel like cases like this are so rare
I love your explanation and reaction!. this song is perfection both the studio and live versions. Would have been so cool if you were my music fundamentals professor !
Twenty One Pilots typically make unexpected decisions with their music. When you expect it to go hard, they bring it back. Other times, it goes hard like with Tyler's scream. I feel this makes their music their own unique style.
I agree with you about the live version! I had the same reaction at the same spot in the live version! It was fascinating to be able to see the comparison! Thank you!💜💜💜
I actually have to come back and comment. I have watched many reactions to the studio version of the lone, and easily 90% of reactors were brought to tears.
The studio version obviously had to be appropriate to the particular scene he was given by the makers of Arcane to write for. But the live version gave Tyler the opportunity to make it more 'his' in terms of delivery and showmanship, with that majestic orchestral arrangement. The belt/scream would have distracted from the scene in the show I think, where you want the animation to shine rather than the music, but live Tyler could just do what he does best! I love both versions, the melancholy of the studio version knowing it was about his Nana, and the more powerful live version which has a different energy.
The way he sings this song, it really brings a lot of emotion. His voice is appropriately frail. He can bring power, but that's nor what he was going for in the studio version.
I think the scream in the live version is, While very talented it came off as out of place especially in comparison to the studio version. I'm used to screams with pop punk so I'm wondering if this is an issue of dissonance caused by genre shifts. The studio version is chill, just as you put it, but then in the live version he takes the chill out of it. With that said, the live version does have its merits. The accompanied Orchestra elevates grandiosity and epicness like you said. I wonder if the live version would've worked better for the TV show. It definitely feels like a film soundtrack piece to me.
I’m not sure if it would have worked better. It might have stuck out more and not worked for what happened in the show. Both versions were great though.
To me the studio version was pretty sleepy, so I go with the live version. Not familiar with the TV series but a quick check seemed to indicate whether the moral line was crossed but I didn't think there was anime involved. However, it was just a quick definition of the story. It kind of reminded me of I think a Bruno Mars song, it had a bit of standard pop chords. Definitely the live version, for me, was better with flow and energy.
Yep standard pop stuff but the show and music are really gettin popular right now. My son and I just finished the second season on Netflix last night. The ending could have been better but that’s cliffhangers for you. Merry Christmas!
@@bobcieslinski Little reminder that there are a lot more characters in league and in that specific region (city of piltover and zaun) So the longer they drag the show out, the more time skips they put, the more work they have to fix with trying to tie in the rest of the characters. I personally wanted a little bit more time to flesh the in betweens as well but I can understand their decision

Wow I didn’t know that Steph. Thanks for sharing.
@@bobcieslinskiI think it’s important enough to mention that she had died from Dementia, because quite a few of the lyrics reflect that
@@noscwthanks for sharing that.

Enjoyed how you counted 1,2,3,4 with your fingers. Loved the look of pleasure on your face when Tyler screamed.
Thanks such an awesome song. That note was wow!

For sure both versions are incredible in their own way.
I've watched this sooo many times already, and I still get chills. The song is beautiful and brings me to tears, but the live version is epic!
That love version is so emotional. Loves it!

Oh that version is so powerful. There is no doubt. But the live version took that to another level. Both versions are so good. This song is sick.

Great comments Jules. I loved them both for different reasons.
Would love to see more Twenty One Pilots reactions from you. Thanks!
Thanks I loved it and I would love to do more from them.
@@bobcieslinski subbing to your channel. Thank you!
Thanks for subbing! I hope you have a Happy New Year! Hope to hear from you again!
@@bobcieslinski Thank you! Hope you have a Happy New Year as well! ✨🎊🎉🥳

I prefer the live version... that scream! ❤

@@mango-floatit’s a great show can’t wait for the next season.
I like his voice and the song but something is missing for me. I don’t know what!
Did you really need to comment about the show? 😒
I think so since the song was in the soundtrack. I tried not to spoil things too much
I'd love to see a reaction to Honeybee by Steam Powered Giraffe.
