Oh! In a short time, we've had two of Toby Fox's best compositions, Hopes and Dreams and now His Theme. This reminded me that Undertale's anniversary is coming up (September 15th). Would it be too much to ask for the track 'UNDERTALE' on such a special day?
I always wished that His Theme was more melodically complex, especially knowing how talented Toby is. That said, I think you did a wonderful job bringing my, dare I say, hope and dreams to reality. Beautiful as always!
The simplicity of His Theme is why it works so well imo. This is one of the only songs that never fails to get me emotional, and I don't think it would be half as powerful if it wasn't this simple.
We don't talk enough about all the hard work of playing all those instruments, recording them individually, blending them all together and editing the video. You are very talented. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hello Luke! My daughter is 11 months old and when she was 9 ~10 months we discovered your channel. Sometimes we need about 10 minutes to get something done at home and we put something on the TV for her to watch. She's never liked watching cartoons, she watches a bit and then goes off to find her mommy and daddy. One day we saw a video, I remember it was a Donkey Kong song, and she was near the TV and immediately became curious to watch it. Within minutes she was dancing and waving her hands. 😂😂😂 Whenever we need to we put on your videos and she loves to watch, she waves her little hands and smiles, I believe she must have made you her best friend. 😂 We love your work and hope your channel grows more and more! Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
My heart MELTED when I saw this!!!!! I love His Theme and the scene that accompanies it and if you pair that with the quality of your covers then we know we're in for a great time!!! Love your music, keep up the good work ❤
@@InstrumentManiac Hello, I would like to request a cover of a song from a game I played as a child, here is the link to listen: th-cam.com/video/EGF88uD2mQY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vFnes0Iu0dcLnkMb Is there any way you can do a cover of it as your version and inspiration??
I knew what I was getting into. I tried to prepare. I failed miserably. This was pretty much the first song and part of a videogame that truly made me cry. I was a weeping mess when I first played Undertale and heard it. It still makes me shiver whenever I listen to it. You did an incredible rendition to it and this sounds just too good! Love what you did here and thank you for making it, if you'll excuse me I'll be crying and eating some ice cream in the corner over there
•Im not ready for this to end.. •Im not ready for you to leave.. •Im not ready to say goodbye to someone like you again.. edit 1: THIS COMMENT WAS SENT 2 DAYS AGO HOW DO I HAVE 110 LIKES?!?!?!
His Theme is what brings the Human (the Player) get to know about what Asriel has dealt with, suffering the pain of being a emotional-less flower, hiding his identity from his own parents and shows the world of monsters his pain, because, he can't feel anything.
I always tear up to this song. Back then it was because of the beautiful story. Now it's more because of the nostolgia and remembering good times. Undertale will always be my favorite game ever made and my inspiration. Thank you Toby Fox. And thank you for another amazing cover Luke! Keep doing you man love your work!
Dude, you and Neito did SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO well, the build up was SO well done, and it always gives me that soothing feeling I feel in my heart. I have only heard very few songs that have super good build up and give me feelings of complete relaxation, and this is one of those songs. AMAZING work dude, just amazing
This song make me cry evert time I listen to it, this song is Literally magnificent like basicly all undertale song, i'm a french fan (Sorry if I don't write well) and thank you for do this beautifull song from this beautifull game with real instruments
While I was incredibly sad when I realized this was a cover of His Theme rather than Undertale (which you should totally cover, by the way) this is still an amazing cover!! I love the way you build up the song slowly, this really captures His Theme!!
Dude, you can't just drop such bangers so often, it's bad for my heart. Also thanks for picking one of my favorite themes from Undertale, your cover gave me shivers.
this almost sounded like the 5th anniversary concert version of his theme. it was my favorite rendition because it truly felt like saying goodbye to my "best friend" and him letting me go. thank you so much for this ❤
man this hit, i dont know how best to describe the feeling i had (but i'm sure as hell gonna try) sure it could be put as just nostalgia but i like to ramble: it was like .. when you thought you forgot something you used to really like as a kid, maybe a tv show or game or music or whatever and it just made you SO happy back then but as you got older you ended up forgetting about it, right? but it felt like you saw glimpses of it and then you took a few steps closer and eventually you found exactly what you used to like as a kid and it slowly makes you happy for rediscovering it and experiencing it again. sometimes you wont know WHY you feel so happy but like it's the you from the kas as a kid who's still there getting so happy, if you get what i mean? long story short, ramble leading into another ramble which no one is gonna care about: it felt like when i was a kid way back and i just LOVED miku. the animations or videos, cosplayers, art, music, everything about miku made me happy as a kid. as i got older i drifted from vocaloid and eventually forgot about it for a few good years. as an adult i saw bits here and there, and had the opportunity to go to a miku concert. originally i thought "why the hell not?" and i went. during the whole thing i was SO happy and excited and i had no idea why, little did i know it was the inner kid being so ecstatic that he was experiencing something he thought he never would. you get me? so now i have this thing, i do things that me from the past would like. cuz it makes him happy, then it makes me happy. y'know? cuz you're allowed to be happy about small things and often as adults you just don't get to do that (which i think is sad about the world)
This is... awesome, in every sense of the word. I can *feel* the emotion behind the music. Hopes and Dreams being realized in a desperate moment. A silent cry for help. A song for the Salvation of a friend in need.
Easily #1 favorite video game moment, absolutely beautiful I'd say this one retroactively makes your "Memory" cover better since it originally felt too much like His Theme but now hearing this it feels distinct enough
This song always reminds me of my grandad and I'm so glad it does. It always leaves me in tears. I'm glad. Thank you for making this, It's different yet the same. I don't know why but the original always sounds so much more emotional than any other version I've ever heard.
Every time something happens to me, good or bad, I listen to this song... At the same time that she can make me smile, she can make me cry. I want to hear this song when I achieve one of the greatest achievements of my life, in this case, starting a family...This song is deeper when you have experienced a lot.
I legit pressed shuffle on the playlist and got "Hopes and Dreams/SAVE the world and His Theme" back to back which really fits with how good the transition is
It’s perfect. I had faith you’d do it justice since you’ve brought understanding and expertise to every arrangement, and you always use that to give them a unique aspect that only ever uplifts and solidifies the central emotions and themes. But it’s safe to say that I’m once again completely floored. His Theme has always been one of my favourites, a lullaby that grows into a royal, hopeful and triumphant orchestral, and by this point in the game it feels EARNED. Hearing that orchestra in its full breadth was astounding, I literally sat up and yelled when the french horns came in. I already knew that you “got it”, that you understood how to best add to these songs without detracting or pulling attention from what made them great in the first place, because you’ve shown me that countless times now. And yet, it’s always so moving and comforting to hear that anew. Thank you for sharing these with us.
This is such a good Theme, especially when you hear it in context with the story. This is such a wonderfull version of this Theme. Thanks for making it. Also, Steinways are sounding so damn amazing.
It's an absolute masterpiece, but I'm not surprised because your works are always wonderful, Luke, thank you and congratulations on the work you've done, keep it up .
I was watching this video as the final rays of the sun painted the sky orange. What a great way to see the sun setting here in Cocoa Beach. Thank you for adding to the beauty tonight.
Luke PEAKman & Moises Nieto is a very great duo, always bringing high quality covers. This one's incredible. It's so soft at the beginning and then so majestic and the very soft again at the end! Desk Bells are so good, glad to see them again
Wow, all I can say is this sounds incredible... I could also say that this song has nearly been *beat* to death, but you really *blew* this out of the park!
This song has always filled me with such melancholy joy. It reminds me every time of the childhood i had growing up on different video games and music and the friends that I made along the way. Undertale was the one game that i feel truly brought forth a sense of community for videos games and brought so many people together. The game and its music has brought me personally close to many friends that I hold dear. Thank you for this. This is such an amazing piece that I personally thought you brought to life so thoroughly and beautifully. It legit brought me to tears! I sincerely look forward to more music from you!!
Thanks for inviting me to play such a beautiful theme with you, you made it sound incredible with your amazing arrangement and performance!! 😭🩵
nice piano playing!
for real! nice work!
Y'all did amazing :D
yas moises!
Thanks for playing on this track bud, your skill never ceases to amaze me! 😊❤️
His theme is one of my favorite songs in undertale, just how it builds up over time
It's such a nice building one 😊
@@InstrumentManiac And your cover did an amazing job, Luke
hi bryce
HOW are you EVERYWHERE
This one and "Undertale" theme itself always makes me cry.
Powerful and emotional piece of work, especially for those who played through the game.
"I'm Not crying i Just cought something my eyes."
"What did you Catch?"
"Tears!"
I think I caught them too
Am I tweaking or did Papyrus say that?
*You feel your tears sliding down your cheek*
@@Colton-jv7sh He did say that
😭😭😭
“Despite everything, it’s still you.”
My favorite quote
Wow
That was just the perfect timing when I was watching

Undertale 071 is coming later but I actually have a really large project *hopefully* coming out around then. Stay tuned!
I'm glad to hear that he will@@InstrumentManiac
@@InstrumentManiac Sounds rad! Suuuuper excited for what you have in store
Im so excited!!
no way it's anniversary is on my birthday, this one is gonna be so good LMAO
I swear Luke looks like he's on the verge of crying every seconds of his videos.
i would be too during this
the vibes were real 👏
maybe he was
maybe i am ,too :(
Hearing the his familiar music played fills you with not only Determination, but also hope, warmth, and love.
😌❤️

@@bmobmo6438absolutely
His Theme but more melodically complex is called Undertale (with lowercase ndertale)
i see what u did there 👀❤️
I genuinely cried when I was hearing this, it's a mixture of me being depressed, but also of the beauty of the song. You guys did such a good job
We don't talk enough about all the hard work of playing all those instruments, recording them individually, blending them all together and editing the video. You are very talented. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And learning to play them too
Thank you! 🙏🙏❤️
Dont worry, hip shop theme! You will ever be on my heart, as the song with bells in the thumbnail

Ahh I hope you enjoy listening to it!
@@InstrumentManiac I most definitely did!!! You're both extremely talented, you're literally one of my music role models ❤

Sometimes you need to let go...
"So... please- stop doing this! AND JUST LET ME WIN! Stop it! Chara... I'm so alone, Chara... I'm so afraid, Chara... Chara, I... I... I'm so sorry."
His Theme is what brings the Human (the Player) get to know about what Asriel has dealt with, suffering the pain of being a emotional-less flower, hiding his identity from his own parents and shows the world of monsters his pain, because,

when the horn came out, so did my tears 😭 beautiful arrangement. Gentle and and powerful all at once!
Yesss horn lines are so majestic 📯✨
Whoa you're actually doing it! This is awesome! I'm excited to hear it! :)
The entire Undertale OST is perfect, but this is by far my favorite of all of them
I always tear up to this song. Back then it was because of the beautiful story. Now it's more because of the nostolgia and remembering good times. Undertale will always be my favorite game ever made and my inspiration. Thank you Toby Fox.
And thank you for another amazing cover Luke! Keep doing you man love your work!
glad it could bring you back there - thanks for listening ethan!
This is genuinely one of the best pieces of music in gaming history, just the way the notes are played and how it is composed is just perfect
I like how the clouds are like a motif in this channel for childhood or something like that
👀
this is gonna be amazing
This song is somehow a funeral song and a lullaby, you are truly gifted! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
Dude, you and Neito did SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO well, the build up was SO well done, and it always gives me that soothing feeling I feel in my heart. I have only heard very few songs that have super good build up and give me feelings of complete relaxation, and this is one of those songs. AMAZING work dude, just amazing
Thanks man I really appreciate it! 🙏
now Luke again YOU MUST CHALLENGE THE WORLD REVOLVING YOU WILL NOT ESCAPE🌏🌏😤
He knows he can’t hide from Jevil
Jevil himself will be proud when the cover comes out
He needs to play play, the theme theme. It can't be helped helped.
🌎🌍🌏👀
HE CANT HIDE
How? Did I miss this? It's So AMAZING!
This is my favorite Undertale song, so beautiful and sad - what an amazing arrangement - thanks Luke
2:35 is the most coolest scene getting to see all the instruments being played. Great work as always

Remember to always have HOPE for the better tomorrow. Since it is the last thing to fade.
Your stuff is soooo goooood everytime I watch your videos I think that I need to buy more instruments lol
Haha thank you!! And yes... you can never have too many instruments 👀
Incredible as always. Literally moved to tears.
The serene sound of a distant music box...)
(It fills you with determination.)
Yeah this one is going to hurt, not sure I've ever listened to this outside of TP cause it always makes me cry. Can't wait!
lol 2:26, that's a lot of Lukes!
excellent arrangement as always, a pleasure to listen to it. Thanks Luke and Moises!
OH! This is one of my favorite Undertale songs! It captures the heartbreak behind the story while still hinting at hope.
This song always makes me tear up. Thanks for this beautiful cover
While I was incredibly sad when I realized this was a cover of His Theme rather than Undertale (which you should totally cover, by the way) this is still an amazing cover!! I love the way you build up the song slowly, this really captures His Theme!!
I...I...I DON'T CRY OK !?
I love this theme dearly. This version is incredible! Thank you.
Dude, you can't just drop such bangers so often, it's bad for my heart. Also thanks for picking one of my favorite themes from Undertale, your cover gave me shivers.
Glad it could bring the shivers... high praise 👏
I've never understood how this man can make such masterpieces yet get so little recognition, you deserve the world man 🫡
From now on, for me Luke is not just an instrumental maniac, but a whole big band. Amazing job!
Very nice! Got goosebumps at 1:07 with all the strings going off together.
this almost sounded like the 5th anniversary concert version of his theme. it was my favorite rendition because it truly felt like saying goodbye to my "best friend" and him letting me go. thank you so much for this ❤
Valeu!
The music… the beauty… the emotion… it hangs in the air, and you are filled with DETERMINATION.

omgggg SO CUTEE AH ❤
You know he's good when he uses his phone as a drum dampener
warning: expert drum technique! 🥁
Can't wait for the Finale cover!
Luke on his way to make the best possible cover:
But for real though this is absolutely AWESOME!

I was waiting for this for such a long time! thanks maniac!
You cant escape the the fact that you'll eventually have to do a world revolving cover
That was incredible (as always). Love the mastery of the craft and editing on display here.
Just hearing this, and the sudden, overwhelming emotions I felt at 1:05...
I have tears in my eyes.
Banger as always❤
Yeah let's go! Thank you so much this sounds incredible Luke!
Oh, the buildup to Long Elevator is so amazing I'm starting to think I never want to get to the climax! Amazing work!

Don't exist anyword to discribe his theme, is just perfect.
I can't stop crying, i like this so much.

this is the most beatiful song i've ever heard...(bro like just i literally cried)
played it myself and cried. The ending in neutral is the saddest.
You make recording and mixing an orchestra's worth of instruments look easy! Beautiful work mate!
Man his music gets me every time😭 Every single video strikes so much emotion which I have found not too too many musicians can accomplish
JUST WOW. MY EYES TEARED UP, IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL AND SO WELL PLAYED OH MY GODDDD my ears are in heaven
Oh my gosh this is so good!
Thank you for making this music man. You always do your best, and we love it.
Nice bro 💪
Wow, all I can say is this sounds incredible...
I could also say that this song has nearly been *beat* to death, but you really *blew* this out of the park!
