After hearing the OST I HAD to play the game! See my full playthrough with reactions of Undertale here: th-cam.com/play/PL_WaRjEejruEepKrsM_dYR_GDAmluMOuS.html
OHHHHHH.....
Only 1 year later? Damn
Ə
you should watch "all undertale songs are connected (remastered)" it will blow your mind!
Pog :D
OST starts with "Once Upon a Time" and ends with "Good Night" which means undertale was just a bedtime story. And the first thing you do in Deltarune? You wake up.
0_o
Well… the first thing you do is create a character, but I get your point
huh
Never thought about how deltarune starts that way
@Jevil i have this theory that it's a bednight story deltarune gerson wrote
Fun fact: the song UNDERTALE went through like 5 or so drafts to find the perfect one. It's by far the single song Toby fox worked the hardest on
It is his music magnum opus thus far if you ask me.
@@MusicTheoryforGamers It's also the only song in the entire soundtrack that was recorded with real instruments as opposed to digital guitar
@@hyphil1354 cant tell but it sounds like hopes and dreams is also made like that
@@hyphil1354 no it wasn't? Last goodbye was recorded using real piano
@@Quasarel did he use a real guitar on that song
Undertale may have been over-exposed and it may have been obsessed over a bit too much, but it was never overrated. It's such a perfect thing, and it deserves to be recognized as such.
I agree wholeheartedly.
Couldn't have agreed more. Never replayed it after the initial release (though I did play a couple of times after learning you get more endings), but man, that game is an experience!
overrated as hell
I just went back to play last week, forgot just how much of a complete and utter MASTERPIECE this game is.
It's a perfect game, but the Fandom is the farthest thing from perfect.
I love how the music starts out mostly 8 bit and by the end of the soundtrack it's full on instrumentals. Such a powerful feeling that really adds to the "genre shift" that the game puts you through
I didn't notice that
I never noticed that, but yeah, and it would make sense as it slowly sinks in that all of the things that are usually just game mechanics are real in this world, and it somehow both slowly, but also suddenly changes mood. It slowly helps you realize the full life of this world.
It’s like it sinks in that this is almost… more than a game. In a way undertale is very unrealistic in terms of everything, but it feels real, the end of the game makes you feel real things, and it’s conveyed in the music, you start out thinking it’s just another game, but by the end, it makes you feel. The game always has had… clearer music in moments that feel real.
MEGALOVANIA be like:
@aeroleo fr, your best nightmare is one of My fav osts in The game
Things I learned when watching this:
1. There’s way more lemotifs in Undertale than than I thought
2. Toby Fox is a genius
3. Apparently everything in this soundtrack is callback to Big Shot
haha!
Toby dreamed to be a big shot and become so big that he would see past the darkness, but he turned too big accidentally
they arent a callback to big shot since that was made after. Big Shot is just a combination of all previous
oh yeah there's a TON of leitmotifs lol. in fact, megalovania is the only song on the undertale soundtrack with no leitmotifs. (excluding tracks like long elevator of course.)
if you want to see where all the motifs are, there's some great videos by JakobTheQuizGuy and MediaMotifs!
@@ewoly5 😐
Fun fact: the little weirdness in "Home" is a hint at how the "home" you're in is very much not your home. It's a nice place, and the person who wishes you'd stay there safely away from the perils ahead is such a kind and well-intentioned soul, but it just isn't where your heart is - you must move on.
Also, this game's soundtrack is subject to some songs not being played at true-speed in game. Just to give you an idea, I can think of three songs off the top of my head which the game plays back a little bit slower than 100%: "Death by Glamour", "Reunited", and "But the Earth Refused to Die". I feel like this may have been done as a quick-and-dirty way to change their keys at the last minute, but that's only a guess.
On top of that, in certain cases, there are songs which get played back _wildly_ more slowly than in their usual contexts, providing a much moodier or eerier juxtaposition.
Though you can have Toriel, as your new mom in the end.
@@PhirePhlame I'm late but the ingame version of his theme is an octave slower than the OST version.
Don't know how that got fucked up but search it up
@@PhirePhlame replying again so you have a better chance at getting the notification
@@PhirePhlame SAVE the world is a big example of the true game speed. The copyright version is more upbeat and fighting like, while the in-game version is more emotional and heartfelt like.
Toby Fox will make the most hype song you've ever heard for a 30-second interaction between you and a snail that combusts when you motivate it too much

Why post this a year after lol (thanks though)
And where is Gaster's theme?
Same I want to know what the lore that music has somewhat jokes aside I do want to know a composers reaction to it
Better then Megalovania? Try saying that to the whole fandom itself.
@@mysteriousmask8847 megalomania is still the best song in main game
Fun fact: There was originally a softer, more acoustic version of Spear of Justice, but it got replaced with the current version because Toby thought that it didn't, and I quote: "Sound enough like being heroically punched in the face."
Second fun fact: The song "Long Elevator" is literally just a recoding of Toby Fox's washing machine.
Edit: probably should've put this here sooner, but Long Elevator isn't actually a recording of Toby Fox's washing machine. I thought it was. Turns out, it's basically just 3 long sine waves, which are basically just notes that oscillate, or repeatedly bend in a pattern.
Thanks, replies!
wait hold up the washing machine fact was real because i thought that's just something charii5 said as a joke
@@linkheroofhyrule9118 No, it's real.
@@yaboi8er this is peak sound design folks
Funfact: another medium has to be a super popular track, it kicks- with every other track
th-cam.com/video/XRwTuqIX3ro/w-d-xo.html the unused version
0:00 Excitement, and eagerness, slowly fading into a broken man as he realized his audio was broken, then back to joy as he quickly fixes it.
why are we both here at around the same time and why did you put so much detail into that
@@itsonlyyou.5398 because…
*It fills you with DETERMINATION
ah its not just me
The start made me laugh so hard
His willingness to fix the audio fills you with determination
I can't believe Toby wrote this soundtrack when he was just 22-23 years old. Truly masterful beyond his years
The dude made the whole game didn't he? That's crazy. Very wide arrange of skills and interests to pull this off. And it's not like any area of the game suffered. He did it all WELL. It's a beautiful work of art. I love the story, characters everything
@@SantanaBanana47He didn't do everything alone, but yeah
@@jaywarudo do we know who helped?
@@SantanaBanana47 Yeah, actually. in the credits of the game, specifically neutral. I think it shows all the people that helped. In the pacifist credits, it shows ALOT of names, which would make it hard to catch most of them. So i assume they also helped in some small way or donated to toby fox for the cause of undertale or something
@@jaywarudo Those giant wall of names are all the Kickstarter backers, as Undertale was a Kickstarter game. Undertale was developed by an extremely small team, mainly Toby and Temmie, but a few others like Magnolia Porter helped out with other character designs and such
Bergentrückung always makes my eyes tear up. When King Asgore knows what he did to the other small kids and resolves himself that he can't allow himself to be pushed into something like that again and that he doesn't deserve mercy and destroys your mercy button... it's fantastic.
Noticing a lot of Asgore fans for a change in this comment section. It's nice. Man's underrated as heck for sure. =>
@@ethanotoroculus1060 Asgore is a hero. Despite it all. That means something.
Thinking it through you should prolly not put unprotected spoilers here when the uploader hasn't seen the game yet and has some interest... But I guess it isn't the biggest deal. Yet.
@@ethanotoroculus1060 Eh, the upload was 10 minths ago if bro hasn't gotten around to it by now he probably won't.
And if flowey is not there to kill him in the end, asgore kills himself
Knowing the title of the song "Battle Against a True Hero" is something I wish I knew when playing Undertale. It would have made the fight the song appears in that much more heartbreaking
I look forward to discovering this on my twitch stream of the game!
@@MusicTheoryforGamers Is there any replay available somewhere ?
Absolutely right
@@MusicTheoryforGamers is there a youtube version of the stream I would love to watch it
@@MusicTheoryforGamers same here would love to watch you play this game!

Thx
Thank you!
Np
Thanks
You just copied the other guys comment💀
The complete tonal shift from “Undertale” to “Song that might play when you fight Sans” is insane
i know its been said hundreds of times before but toby fox really is some kind of mad musical genius
I totally agree and yet I feel his strongest suit in this game is his story telling. He accomplished something I don't know if any one else has ever managed to match in the story of undertale, which is to use the medium of being a game as fundamental to the storytelling itself. Undertale requires being a game to be told and that is an amazing accomplishment of storytelling.
Undertale and Deltarune are the culmination of remixing and creating songs for upwards of a decade... at minimum.
@@adrienneladd8375 That is kind of the genius of Toby Fox. He's a great musician, a great writer, and a great game developer. Mash it all together, you get Undertale
Every true undertale fan knows that Toby fox made like 5 songs for undertale and remixed them
@@adrienneladd8375 And its great that the initial premise is so simple and approachable. Fall into a land of monsters and you gotta kill the big bad at the end "asgore" to go free. and then he just layers and layers emotional nuance on top of it, like what if they aren't all that evil and introducing the idea that saving is a canonical power that the player has and playing with that.
His reaction to Hopes And Dreams is golden, truly a breathtaking piece.
Timestamp?
@@lucylu3342 1:46:14
Aww, yess, agreed! ;W; Truly so!
So is Hyperdeath Asriel, I’m sorry i had to say it.
I never took drugs, but I think this track is how candyflipping feels (along with the visuals lol) 😳
'Bring It In, Guys!' is such a perfect credits song. It's essentially a medley of all the different leitmotifs in the game that basically takes you back through the entire journey you've been on one last time
The fact that it's a medley is the biggest reason it's one of my favorites😄
You're right! "Bring It In, Guys!" Made me cry the first time i heared it, it's just so beautiful
What still impresses me to this day is that Toby made THE ENTIRE GAME ON HIS OWN with a little help from Temmie Chang. And having a game this good be made by ONE SINGLE PERSON with some help still surprises me.
Literally the longest part of credits was special thanks
@@IntegrousDeltahe still made like the whole game almost entirely on his own
@@IntegrousDeltawasn’t that just the kickstarters?
@@IntegrousDelta yeah because kickstarters what are you talking about
The ultimate passion project.
its a shame M-Neo's fight is only a couple seconds long
His theme is fire for the 30 seconds it lasts
well cause M-Neo just dies after the first hit
He's a gag character that's all
@@C____1-2 another ɴᴜᴍʙᴇʀ ᴏɴᴇ ʀᴀᴛᴇᴅ [Salesman 1997] i see. [Respect] for you [good] sir
@@C____1-2yes and no. He's designed to be disappointing because Toby didnt want the genocide route to make the player feel accomplished
@@TotherKoala I don't see how that's a way to male you feel accomplished. If anything, it's to make you feel powerful, before meeting Sans of course.
The track "UNDERTALE" can be appreciated even more when you know the context of the song and what the leitmotif's being brought into this song were associated with. Bringing the two main leitmotifs of the games into one awesome track that holds the name of the game itself as it's title. Toby Fox has said he likes to use melodies and motifs this way and looks at it as if the music undergoes it's own sort of "character development" and uses it to tell a story in the music itself.
Toby is such a genius... His music still slaps HARD after these 6 years my god. And those letimotif usages u mentioned tie the story perfectly, im still so amazed...
Aww, I love that, as "character development", that's really inspiring, honestly! ;v;
The fact that some of the instruments aren't digital in that one track in particular just makes it hit closer to home
it brings such a nostalgic feeling, as if the instruments are crying out raw human emotion
I loved it as well! I love what these themes represent as well! They represent the ideas behind each scene they accompany. Asriel or floweys theme slowly foreshadows his reveal as being Asriel, not mention representing his existence and relation to the scene. The original theme surrounds the monster war and its repercussions. How it’s story has impacted these people, and despite the humans being completely ignorant of the monster existence, the monsters continue to have their small rebellion against the humans, despite it being such a long time ago.
yo i am your 1k like !
I was reading through the song list in the description when I realized something: The soundtrack begins with "Once Upon A Time" and ends with "Goodnight"
...
Undertale is a freaking bedtime story.
Cuz it's an underTALE
@@unothecard3839
A TALE for the monster UNDER the bed (?
Where you fight a gay goat, though Genocide is pretty grim for being told in a bedtime story basically the everyone died story in spongeBob lol.
@@joshshrum2764 You never get to hear Goodnight in the genocide run to my knowledge, everything just erases and there's nobody there anymore, nobody to finish telling the story and nobody to listen, forever unfulfilled.
And damn if that isn't a haunting thought.
@@joshshrum2764 Not sure how you figure Asriel is gay (I'm guessing that is who you are referring to since Asgore and Toriel were married). I guess the genocide route is the Brothers Grimm version?

@@destiny_moon115 thanks
The Undertale OST is the closest thing to musical perfection in my opinion. There was not a single song that stood out of place, and not one can honestly be improved. They are perfect the way they are.
While undertale is close to perfection, deltarune is perfection
@@polen0_ imo its vice versa, even toby said he didnt think he could replicate the magic of undertale so he went with a different kind of story in deltarune :D
@@polen0_ Opposite. Deltarune is great, but undertale is far better
I'm guessing you're not counting long elevator
@@huntehrerrhr6581deltarune's story came BEFORE undertale. the only reason he didnt make deltarune first is because it was too big of a project. besides its unfair to judge deltarunes story when its not even completed yet - its only 28% done 💀. u cant compare a finished game that alot of people have nostalgia for and an unfinished game. deltarune already has some of that undertale magic tbh
Can we talk about how it goes from Live Report to Death Report? Even Toby fox’s song names are genius
I was listening to them when I saw this coment
the most genius song name is “Song that might play when you fight sans”. It just hits different then the other names
@@risan7495 what about Ooo (best name)
@@risan7495 but what about "Bird that carries you over a disproportionately small gap"? That *really* hits different, at least for me
@@risan7495 To me its: Can you really call this a hotel, I didnt recieve a mint on my pillow
I know Your Best Nightmare sounds insane, but trust me when I say it absolutely matches the chaos and panic of the battle lol
I think he loved it though when he was calling it wild.
Photoshop flowey in a nutshell:
Bullet hell
It perfectly matches the chaotic Photoshop flowey and all his elements being random and chaotic
39:45 It's like my whole body is being spooked.
Well, why didn’t this comment get liked
@@Easton959i dont know
@@JinglethealmightyI don't know either.
I love how at 4:46 you say that you can view this whole entire soundtrack as one whole main idea where everything comes off of and is connected but then a few seconds later at 5:01 you say except for the your best friend song. But then much later at 1:29:27 that gasp of realization that even the your best friend song was actually connected to another song was the icing on the cake.
The cake is a lie
@@weeklydeltarunenews mfw that wasnt made by them at all?
@@weeklydeltarunenewsyes but its from portal domdom
Its also in save the world
Doesn’t your best nightmare or your best friend also kinda connect to finale?
You know what I love about CORE? Is that the song continues even when you start a battle.
Yeah same I’m glad it doesn’t just use stronger monsters again, but it honestly works as a area, and battle theme.
When I first noticed that it gave me that "oh man we are really close to the end" feeling. Not sure why.
The same logic applies to Pandora's Palace from Deltarune" which is really good given the pace of the song.
Wait isn't the core theme called "another medium" or am I tripping
@@totallynotgabby8569 nope. Core theme is called CORE.
It’s so funny to just watch him wait for tracks like Power of Neo and Anticipation to drop and they just… don’t.
Yep lol, but the songs do loop in game and that’s probs why there’s usually no sudden end or drop.
@@bentisiphone Tracks like these aren’t meant to loop, they just rarely play for more than 10 seconds at a time.
And they end when you expect it to drop
_Musical jokes_
The only thing that drops in Power of NEO is Metatton's HP
It's very cool that you noticed since the beggining, that all songs are connected in a way, using leitmotifs or being just a straight continuation from previous themes.
It's crazy to think its been 7 years since this game came out!
And yet it still is one of the best games to date.
I hope that one day, I can tell my grandchildren the amazing music of this game. If the future is looking grim on the internet
I hope nothing changes 🙏🏾
I will literally tell this story to my Children.
Like a tale.

Just adding a comment to bring this to the top!
Thanks
Has a bit of title mistakes but pretty useful if you didn’t update your youtube in mobile
Asgore's theme is so beautifully complex. From using Toriel's motif and the death screen motif, to using the same backing instrument as the main battle theme, it establishes a sense of firm familiarity. It reminds you of everything that drove you leading up to the point of the fight. However, being in a minor key, it throws in a sense of the unknown to mask it. It's hopeful, but scary. Familiar, yet unknown. Still one of, if not my most favored song in the entire soundtrack.
Not to mention Bergentrückung, the song you hear right before battling asgore, gives a great buildup to the actual song. Those two combined probably make my favorite song in undertale
It's almost like a conversation between the character and Asgore as well as within themselves. A question and answer invoking "do I have to do this? Do we have to go this far?" And then being determined to see to through because it seems theres no other way. The calm interjected in the middle , to give breath. A pause to reflect. Along with the various themes interspersed to remind you of where youve come but also to represent Asriels loss and dilemma. The two character motives parallel and it's reflected beautifully in this song.
Ah yes. And all of that complexity doesn’t even touch on my favorite part of the song… the theme that is one of a King who does not want to do this, does not want to kill you, but WILL do his duty to his people - something that he feels a heavy burden to do.
@@JaCaBrA144 I like asgore’s theme just because of Bergentrückung
Asgore being the voice you hear on death adds to the determination. So many secrets answered, a sense of betrayal for those hoping to talk to him.
11:58 ITS TRUE THE SONG DOES FILL YOU WITH DETERMINATION
watching this guy smile, bop his head, move around in his chair, and make facial expressions for two hours is the best thing ill accomplish this month
I've gotta say mr coach man, watching your face light up every time a new motif appeared in the sound track (And again whenever one repeated) is delightful
double so when youve been waiting for a beat drop and it finally hits
And again through the whole of the song UNDERTALE
@@Dorsidwarf I actually cried a little during UNDERTALE it is such a beautiful song!
@@MusicTheoryforGamers It hits so much harder in context.
@@MusicTheoryforGamers yeah I cry every time I hear the whole thing….

Homestuck next I guess : P
Hey Charles ima need the greatest plan right about now
you can see in his face how much he loves music as he listens quietly to the songs
Dude they're amazing songs
mannn i really do love this whole playlist. i don't even need to play the game again if i have the urge to, i just listen to this whole thing and remember every single part of the game so vividly, that's how intricately woven the music is with the game itself
This
Real
FR!!!
Has anyone ever told you that you have an amazing smile?
It wholesome
so big
Kinda want to have a smile like that, everytime i smile it just looks like im struggling at it, even when its a genuine smile
Happiest musician alive lol
One of the most contagious smiles I’ve ever seen
The smile you have when hearing some of these songs is so damn genuine and delightful. Toby’s ability to convey emotion through the games music is amazing.
and the tears
toby fox is a musical genius
his smile is so infectious
It scares me 😱
I feel like having these little pauses makes the song unique each time and adds a little charm to it.
Also the fact that all of these tunes can be infinite. When you repeat any song it just is flawlessly composed so that it seems like it was going anyway
Another thing is, the music is so integral to Undertale that you are less scared of scary music and absolutely terrified of the absence of music
When I was assisting to guitar lessons, my teacher always offered me to help learn a song of my choice and when I picked Hopes and Dreams + Save The World it took us two weeks to let go of it because of how passionate we were to play them everytime the lesson started. I still have the tabs we made saved in an old notebook.
This game means the world to me as a person who is in love with music and it’s so endearing to see you react to its OST.
this mans smiled more in the first minute than i have all week
Lol! 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
Thanks for all the likes :)
Damn dude, u ok now?
his smile is everything tbh
*whole year
What’s insane is that there are only 3 actual live recordings in the entire game, during “Undertale,” “She’s Playing Piano,” and “Last Goodbye.” Everything else is a sample or synth.
Also "Long Elevator", it's a live recording of Toby's washing machine
@@Smitology Ah! Truly his washing machine played the most important role
@The Bucket Man Fonts are collections of samples, speaking as someone who uses soundfonts on the daily myself.
how is that in any way insane
@@commenteroftruth9790 It goes to show how good he is at making MIDI instruments sound authentic and real when he wants/needs to. It can confuse many people, even musicians. Plus, the authenticity of live recordings works well for more emotional pieces like Undertale and Last Goodbye. At least, that's how I take it.
I really believe undertale is one of the greatest games ever created. There’s so much attention to detail, the MUSIC IS SO BANGER, the character designs/personality’s, I could go on for what feels like forever about just how many wonderful things this game has. I really can’t find a single flaw. I just love this game so much. I bought the collectors addition and I love wearing the locket it’s so awesome love love love this game and everything it has. :)💖
very unpopular opinion, but “Here We Are” is one of my favorite songs in this track. it expresses the feeling of the specific part of the game completely perfect. suspenseful, unsettling and eerie. and the small bit of curiosity. absolute masterpiece
Not as unpopular as you may think
I would love to hear som Toby's horror-game soundtrack...
@@LoarvicLoarvicthat’s what I’m saying! Why is Here We Are, like, perfect horror ambience?
i agree
I straight-up listened to this for hours on loop every night for the past year
Those instruments used predominantly in Big Shot (and in Death by Glamour) are called "orchestra hits." One of the best MIDI instruements ever created.
best sample ever
I was trying to figure out what that was called
Finally, the common tie between the two Toby fox songs that have gotten stuck in my head lately
Vins I Detache from Squidfont orchestra with bitcrusher my beloved
kinda wish they were called "big shots"

@@Glatier I'm pretty sure TH-cam's algorithm intentionally suppresses long comments when sorting by Top due to them often being spam.
You are killing it. I can’t believe I just watched this whole thing, but your reactions made it feel like I was sharing a favorite song with a friend. Can’t wait to check out more of your vids.
It's absolutely insane that one of my favorite OSTs ever is just a single song remixed about 50 times.
Something that I don't think enough people talk about is the sheer *volume* of music Toby makes for each game. The ratio of soundtrack to game length is insane.
Dude's dedicated to making his game feel like a world of its own.
hehe ratio
Where he does whatever he does is a masterpiece
i absolutely ADORE how during "Your best Nightmare" he doesn't know what the hell is going on but is having such a vibe anyway :D
Meanwhile the ones who know: 😐
the craziest part of the game for sure
I imagine that was the intent behind the track actually lol.
His smile is fricken contagious it makes me so happy seeing people enjoy the soundtrack as much as I do
My first tattoo was one of the Golden flowers from this game because it means so much to me. Delightful reaction vids! Undertale’s soundtrack was immediately a classic and still is. By the time one gets to Heartache, IMO, it’s impossible to stop playing
The bird theme its funny to me because it shows toby's humor, in the game a little bird like a chick picks you up and carries you through a "disproportionately small gap" and the thing about toby making a whole hype up theme about it, its things like that which made the game so enjoyable
And lets not forget about sudden stock explotion sound and image
That’s 100% got to be a reference to Big Nessie in EarthBound, right? I never even put the two together until now
It's clearly reminiscent of airship themes from Final Fantasy, but the fact that it's a tiny bird over a small gap and the song is only 30 seconds long is what makes it so funny.
@@CrookiNari Check out Tessie from Earthbound, it’s the exact same gag. Epic adventure music kicks in and you travel 10 feet on the back of the loch ness monster for like a full minute
Its raining somewhere else is the most underrated song on this OST. Musically it’s just so mysterious and intriguing yet at the same time comforting and relaxing. It is wistful yet complacent and it perfectly represents the scene it plays in during the game. More importantly it also represents the character it represents in such an interesting way. Even the name brings up more questions than answers. It’s just great.
Quite literally my favorite song on the entire ost. No doubt
It took me way too long to identify the leitmotif from "sans" in that track. It's incredible how similar melodies can make for completely disparate pieces.
its raining somewhere else was actually my top song on spotify last year, it genuinely is my favorite undertale song
@@pinxerata it was my top song on Spotify this year! (:
@@fishylove1821 thats awesome! smart race has officially become one of my top songs by toby fox in a short amount of time but nothing beats its raining somewhere else
I was so confused with the beginning because I always draw with something in the background but it got a good chuckle out of me XD I’m glad you kept the bloopers in.
Always loved how "It's Raining Somewhere Else" is a slowed down version of Sans' theme (which is NOT Megalovania for the record).
Megalovania is a Earthbound Halloween Romhack track. Made by Toby. But appears in Homestuck too

I realize undertale is so relatable because our journey as humans start by leaving the nest for the first time, moms sorta resisting each step you take towards adulthood, meeting friends and foes along the way and at the end, a father stands in the way, to test your survivability, fighting hard so you no longer need him, to be free to choose your path in life with the friends you hold dear to your heart and with determination to push forward and keep living life.
Or you can just kill them all…
Oh wow that’s epic
1:32:32
This part almost makes me cry. It's like a triumphant March after going through hell. Determination in song form.
What about the song Determination?
The song is good as hell I can actually agree
*The souls.......*
just having goosebumps listening to it again. i hope to one day write that sort of impactful melodies. Toby Fox is a legend.
It's my favorite piece along with Undertale from the game. Finale is just so perfect. Everything is messy and all over the place in Your Best Nightmare and then Finale comes on and it just starts with only simple piano giving a sense of calm before the storm as you see the souls unite and then you can feel the souls determination to end flowey as the music becomes kind of chaotic again but instead of being as "messy" and all over the place, it is more focused since now the souls are fighting for the same cause together. The church bells are the cherry ontop also since they really give the feeling like it's an important life or death scenario.
Alternate title: 2 hours of Undertale Music occasionally interludes by "wow" or "beautiful"
Hahahahaha.
I mean, to be fair Undertale's music is absolutely amazing lol
@@birb1268 yeah I totally agree
And also "love it"
bruh
During the time Toby was making Undertale, the neighbors called police and firefighters on him a lot of times, and I can't blame them... Imagine a neighbor just making fire all day long
Watching you listen to Hopes and Dreams was so much fun! It's really cool knowing that there are other people out there who love this music as much as I do.
Fun fact: the song ‘Amalgam’ was actually made using samples of noises/songs from the game earthbound. The name is fitting not only because of the enemy you’re battling, but the origin on the song as well
Well actual. A majority of the pieces used samples from earthbound. If you were to take the sound font sad try it yourself you will find that the entire beginning was using the distorted guitar sample.
@@Nativeboy1234
If you start a critique sentence, with "actually", it means you shouldn't finish the sentence.
@@genghisn7 If you start a critique sentence with ‘actually’, it means that🤓
Which is itself a sample of Deirdre by the Beach Boys, so much so it sounds like a YTPMV of it.
@@genghisn7 well achshually, he only said “actual”
This game and it’s soundtrack has brought me joy for several years now. Seeing someone experience it for the first time and enjoy it like I do makes me so happy! Thanks for bringing back some great memories.
Couldn't agree more! Thank you for watching!
Toby's masterful songwriting is so palpable in this ost. When you say you got goosebumps- that's what playing the whole game is like. The subtle swells and music box-style songs are my personal favorite, meaning they make me cry lol. But each soundtrack is just so perfectly fitted to each scene, combining themes that fit together like puzzle pieces- I just- it really makes your emotions hit even harder.
I genuinely love the themes Toby puts in his music, you can tell the themes all fit a character, and even the songs tell how you are encountering the certain character. And you gotta love how Flowey's main battle (Photoshop Flowey) comes with so many different song types.
Honestly, the song "UNDERTALE" made me feel incredibly nostalgic, even when I heard it the first time. It just has this warm yet melancholic vibe to it, that I just tend to think of my childhood when I hear it. It pulls on my heartstrings, and almost makes me want to cry at times. That's an emotional boi right there.
toby knows how to get music to make you feel the right emotions. like you can tell what the context for these songs was by the way they sound
@@Tulip_bip Yep, it’s obviously meant for Asriel’s, tragic past or something tragic before you learn that.
UNDERTALE always gave me such a strong feeling of hope it’s actually insane, especially considering Frisk is walking to what is, in all likelihood, their death
But it’s the culmination of the hope of the _monsters,_ and the fact that it makes you feel that hope with them despite the fact they’re essentially hoping that you die so they can be free is insane
I did the Neutral Route for the first time and it gave me the sad feeling of despair, knowing i have to leave my friends behind just for me to be free
Toby is really good at using leimotif to not only connect songs used in similar situations together, but also create lore out of them. Like a particular leitmotif in THE WORLD REVOLVING and BIG SHOT connecting together the lore of the characters that they play for.
Making lore with leitmotifs.
There's a reason why Megalovania is the only song without any leitmotifs.
There's a reason why a certain simple 4-note motif appears in almost every song...
>And there's a reason why Megalovania is the only song without any leitmotifs
Yeah because it was composed like 10 years before all the others
Dr. W. D. Gaster
@@WarioLand3
So what? The Leitmotif of Metal Crusher comes from a music he composed several years before Undertale.
Fallen Down is taken directly from his album he made for Earthbound.
if by the last one you mean gaster's theme, then that isn't really true. people in this fandom are way too quick to find any ABCB pattern in toby's songs and go "GASTER?!?!!?!?"
there's very few cases where gaster's theme actually seems intended, and all of those cases are in deltarune songs - Another Him, Darkness Falls, Killer Queen, The World Revolving, etc. (the only song in undertale that i think _might_ have gaster's theme is Core, because of the obvious correlation, but even here it's a bit unlikely.)
But Megalovania has a little leitmotif of papyrus' theme
Undertale has had my favorite videogame soundtrack of all time ever since it came out.
You breaking down and pointing out small aspects of the songs has made me appreciate the soundtrack even more!
Seeing someone so happy about something I really love got me through a really tough day. Thanks for sharing ☺️
even after all these years, the song "UNDERTALE" still gives me them goosebumps lol. i also love your reactions to these songs, you truly show how much you really enjoy them, and that makes my day. you also have an amazing smile and i can't help but smile myself.
I cannot listen to Undertale without shedding multiple tears man -, _ ,-
It really did catch me off guard first time I went through that house. I didn’t expect such a huge turn into really emotional content.
The song Undertale is great
@@Galaxy-dw8lg facts
Toby Fox is something else. Not only insanely talented in music. He even managed to speak with one of his idols, ZUN, got to play Smash witht the creator and even got one of his characters into the game. His story is crazy! And there's more to come. I'm so jealous... I mean excited!
He also composed music for pokemon swsh and now i think he's gonna compose some more songs for the new pokemon game too
And he wants to be in the new earthbound project
bro he's transcended in music
@@driuanderer bro… what did u say about earthbound…?
WHAT DID U SAY?
@@Fantasylord2205 n-n-new pro-pro-project buddy
Each and one of the songs are a masterpiece
I absolutely love watching this. It’s so cool to see someone who works with music review this. The undertale odst changed my view and love for music tremendously. Toby fox is definitely a musical genius
His reaction to Photoshop Flowey’s laugh was priceless.
“....
...uh oh...”
I legit commented this and did not see your comment what a coincidence🤣🤣🤣
You can clearly see he didn't expect that at all
"Have you ever heard of a talking flower?"
@Deleritube he's called Photoshop Flowey in the credits and Flowey X in the game files
@@TheSpellKaster your right, but I still think omega flowey sounds better
52:38 Someone pointed out in chat that the song 'Another Medium' actually started out as a remix of a song called 'Doctor' which was made by one George Buzinkai for one of the Homestuck OST album's (they sadly passed away a few years ago). Iirc, the remix was originally called 'Patient' to stick with the Doctor theme; the title 'Another Medium' could also be a reference to how it went from a remix of a song from a webcomic to an area theme in a video game. Another Medium, indeed
I never knew that man! But ill be sure to check out that song
What's more, the place where the game took place is called The Medium. So it might have been, in a sense, "another Medium"
i forgot what the title of that song is and was wondering if it was meant to be a homestuck reference when i saw it, assumed it was cause hotland looks kind of like the land of heat and clockwork. forgot it was also a doctor remix!
now that im thinking about it...all the area's in undertale look kind of like the worlds in homestuck. dave's world is hotland, john's is waterfall, jade's is snowedin. the only one were missing is rose's world but i suppose you could say hers got mixed together with john's due to all the rain
very fitting too if thats actually intentional since toby fox literally started making undertale in andrew hussie's basement
It is fascinating to hear you talk about your perception of music. I unfortunately have very little analytical and theoretical experience with music, I see you can analyse it thoroughly, recognise all sorts of techniques, notes, instruments, etc. That is super impressive. I know none of that, but I still absorb music. You perceive all of it, I learn it by heart and like one single layer so I can remember the slightest differences, but that's about it.
Great video!
I've listened to the OST for Undertale many times, but I never realized that in "it's raining somewhere else" that in the beginning of the song it sounds like we are walking outside in the rain, then it transitions to sounding like we are inside of a coffee shop with the music more prominent and the subtle sounds of rain drizzling atop of the building. Tobyfox truly is a masterful musician with this OST and the attention to detail.
Weird that you’re reacting to Toby’s music backwards haha. But seriously, your reactions are so fun to watch and fun to see how others think of your favorite music. You’re also able to just detect some music factors and talk about how good and unique it is! I always enjoy your reactions, as much as you do enjoy making them! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for your kind words and support!
I agree! :)
Next thing he'll do is listen to Toby's music in homestuck lol
@@OChan263 if only. A lot of his tracks in Homestuck are absolute GEMS.
@@XisyeraOfficial send some of the best ones please
One thing I love so much about the very short track "she's playing piano, is it's one character(undyne) playing a leitmotif that appears in another character's(Alphys) theme, but not just that, it's stripped bare of the timing nuance present in the original, and also the way that it's played purposefully has a lot of impact on the keys(I think it's called dynamics) because undyne is an impatient character with extreme passion in everything she does, that comes off as rough-edged and brute-forced
As soon as I heard Once Upon a Time, I started to tear up. Memories to flood back. The nostalgia of watching videos, memes, comics of Undertale hits me hard.
Undertake theme blows music teacher
‘s mind. Great video btw!
Is it weird I teared up a bit while listening to these? The nostalgia man.. Hope to see you play it on twitch some time
I remember back when it came out watching jacksepticeye play it and loving it through that
@@antwonsworld3435 not same experience for me it goes way back to when toby worked on homestuck and he had made a kickstart for undertale i put around 5 bucks into it and got access to a very early demo of it that as far as i know is lost media and one neat thing in it is it seems ghaster was a place holder sprite i think it was for a boss that never made it. i’m pretty sure i still have the demo on a old hardrive somewhere
it’s not the same as the one on archive site but toby fox as a whole is nostalgia for me
@@antwonsworld3435 And he would voice act the characters, nostalgia at it's finest.
@@antwonsworld3435 same
I did the first time I heard them I think and I still do. It was nostagic from the beginning but it's 10 times more nostagic now.
FInale gives me chills everytime i hear it, Toby is a MASTER at songs that make you feel emotions
Finale is my favorite song In the soundtrack besides battle against a true hero
finale goes so hard, i love how much it feels like its pushing you forward to finish this one final challenge
I love the way it’s gets more and more aggressively remixed till the end
Same, finale is like one of my favorite songs out of the soundtrack along with fallen down, his theme, and metal crusher
I already love what Toby Fox did with the Flowey leitmotif and then His Theme pops up in it and I can't help but get chills
It's because of Toby Fox and "Dogsong" that I learned the musical term "tempo rubato", the practice of "robbing time" from one measure of a song to spend an equivalent amount of extra time in a subsequent measure. He just plays with time so fluidly.
1:33:31 That smile is genuinely making me smile because we know we're listening to one of the greatest UNDERTALE themes
1:14:33 is even more amazing when you think about it at a gameplay level. It's such a pivotal moment in the game that goes into a lot of the backstory. In my opinion, it is probably the single most important moment in the game, and the music really brings that out. If I recall, Toby went through several iterations of the song before settling on this piece which leads me to believe that he wanted this moment to matter. By far my favorite track.
You didn’t say it’s name, but I knew which one you were talking about...
thats the only moment i remember in my life when a tear came out of my eye
I thought the time stamp was gonna be the long elevator lol
@@ketaminefanatic7755looolll
Watching this man enjoying undertale's ost is like going to Louvre with a friend that loves art, so beautiful.
Loved your reactions to "Your Best Nightmare". It's like you were thinking to yourself how far Toby Fox could go with the leitmotif for Flowey.
Me: I don’t want to watch all 2 hours of this
My brain: *Yes you do.*
I definitely recommend playing Undertale (either on a Stream or in your own time) as context does wonders for Tobys music. Some scenes that seem extremely serious are way more jokey in the actual game and the Leitmotifs carry better when each chat has its theme music played frequently. As that random chat member pointed out, Listening to spear of justice is way different When your not fighting undyne and her attacks are combining with the music!
Also your reaction to “Your best nightmare” was amazing, you were taken so aback by the contrasting pitches in each section!
DU du du du du du
15:52 musical headcannon! by experience with music boxes, those little nubs that pluck the keys get worn and dulled over time. it makes me want to think that, as you said earlier, the mismatches and off-timings throughout the song could be a reference to the past children in Toriel's care that didn't survive the underground. i only say this because at the end of the song, when you think it's over, the last piece comes in with pristine and matching timings, almost as if the music box never made to the end of the song before. a metaphor for Frisk being the only human to survive to hear that part.
i love this
Toby Fox is such a genius omg
Music was one the first things that hit me when playing this game.
The music in this game is as much of a storyteller as the characters are - it is beautiful. This was perhaps the first game where I felt the music was integrated so thoughtfully, where it was so massively integral to the whole experience.
The warmth of themes related to Toriel for example - amazing. It creates this atmosphere of playing something... personal, something special.
First time playing, I did not realise you could repeatedly attempt spare and accidentally killed Toriel - ridden with regret, I loaded a save and... the game knew... It blew my mind. The deafening silence when it was revealed that the game knew - even silence is part of storytelling.
But the moment that really blew me away was actually small.
In waterfall rainy area... There is lonely statue... There is no real prompt or anything. But somehow I knew you could give it the umbrella. Somehow, the game made this option feel so good hearted and natural.
And then the Memory played. And somehow it drove me to tears, no idea why. Something at the back of my head knew the important thing happened, that this theme was important. Oh boy was I in for a surprise...
Or the moment when you reach Asgore's home - you expect final boss prelude, something grand... You find place so familiar, so warm, but what you learn there... It gives so much context, through combination of story and music - warm and familiar tune and story that should be detached from you, yet feels oddly familiar at this point, personal.
Undertale - a mashup of memory and main/menu theme - THE theme of this game - a work of genius in my opinion - theme that carries so much emotion, so much warmth, so much... love. Every time I hear it, it sends shivers down my spine, and tears to my eyes. After years, still the same effect as the first time I've heard it.
I don't know how - this heavily contributes to what happens in pacifist fight against Asriel. "It seems that there's still one last person that needs to be saved" - and His Theme hits you like a truck. It makes you care for a character that you knew... for minutes only, and yet you feel like meeting an old friend. Without perfect score to go with it, without whole musical background hammering the theme into your head - this would not have worked.
I mean, honestly - when you fight the final boss with tears running down your cheeks... something was done so right mere words can't express it.
We feel the same but I'd give you a medal for expressing it out😂❤
due to the sheer mass of songs this game holds, it felt like i was listening to some songs for the first time and was jamming out just as much as dan
it cant be said enough, toby is a musical genius
