LYRICS
Now and then I think back to 2011
Back in season one when all the characters were alive.
Told myself that it was just TV
But didn't know it meant so much to me.
And though it's fiction, it's an ache I still remember.
You can get addicted to a certain HBO show.
Chock full of violence and boobs...so many boobs.
(When) characters started dying off like flies,
(And then) That's when I was forced to realize
That this show would ruin my whole life forever.
But you didn't have to kill them off
George R.R. Martin, why are you such a sadistic bastard?
I went through a whole tissue box,
And my friends who read the books say that there's worse to come.
No you didn't have to kill the King (Robert)-
Putting the kingdom and its subjects in the hands of Joffrey
I know that he was drunk and old,
But now he's just a character I used to know.
(Now he's just a character I used to know)
(Now he's just a character I used to know)
I thought the main character was Ned Stark, since he's on the posters.
That had me believing that you wouldn't dare to kill him, too.
But then you put my dreams in check
When you put a sword through Ned Stark's neck
Wasn't ready to let him go.
And I didn't know he'd end up as a character I used to know.
And then you go after Khal Drogo?
Goddamnit, Martin, I was finally starting to ship them.
C'mon, he was her sun and stars!
He got a goddamn papercut, are you for real?
And then you brought him back to life?
Killing him once wasn't enough for you? Think of the fangirls.
I should've been prepared by now
For him to be a character I used to know.
King Robert (I used to know)
Ned Stark (now he's just a character I used to know)
Khal Drogo (I used to know)
Now they're all just characters I used to know
(I used to know)
(That I used to know)
(I used to know)
Can we add a new verse? It could start with "No, he didn't have to hold that door!"
Dude, too soon!
If you hadn't watched it you wouldn't know what I was talking about, so no, it is not a spoiler.
"But no he had to be a herooo
I really hate that kid now, I thought I could let it go but seems he's another character we used to knoow"
Finaly Dishonored GoT will never ever do whacky " Save somebody with time travel " shit. Not in a million years.
WHATS BOUTS ME BREH
I guess that nearly everyone thought that Ned Stark was the main character xD
Yea, people who hadnt read the books
19EHF I prefer the books to the TV show
The thing is that GoT doesn't really do the "main character" thing...
Ida Bexelius Kind of like Baccano! Except none of the likable characters die in that. Then again at least half of the likable characters are immortal.
temariileiin You have to factor in one key thing. It's Sean "God Damn Walking Spoiler" Bean we're talking about.
Aw, that's sweet. Remember when you could actually remember all of the name of the characters we loved who are dead? Remember when they fit easily into the length of a song? The good old days.
Goerg R Martin reminds me on the mad king "burn them all"
Lol I can imagine the show getting him to cameo as the Mad King in a flash back.
Ethan
SO MUCH YES !
Well they are doing a flashback this season so....
Valar Morghulis !! ALL THE CHARACTERS MUST DIE !
AmateraZ your spelling reminds me of shit
The Cersei portrayal made me laugh, how she just stands mocking her husband on his death bed!
"hey hon u dead yet"
Capitalist Regime lol
What's great is that she did pretty that but at his funeral as she chose a dress of black silk and myrish lace studded with red rubies. Which are the colors of House Targaryen and Rhaegar Targaryen wore a suit of black enameled plate and his cuirass was studded wit rubies.
Holy crap! She actually looks like Maisie!
Looks more like Theon greyjoys sister
Molior RS *Reek
Blitz Krieg * The Ghost of Winterfell
Christopher Tobiasz *The Turncloak
@@MoliorRS fuck theon
"they've all ready killed ned stark who else could they possibly kill"
Top 10 Chilling Pictures Taken Seconds Before Disaster Struck
Well the only ones left are everyone?!
One of you, (the dark haired one) looked exactly like Arya. That's awesome!!
PS: Which one is the dark haired one? Ginny or Dana? I feel rude calling her "the dark haired one".
She's Ginny and the blonde is Dana.
notliterally Well you both look beautiful. :)
Exactly what i thought! :D
Arya stunt double no kidding. Just what I thought.
R. Lorenzo Hahah my thoughts to :P
Thank the Old Gods that this video was made before Season 3... Or it would have been even more heartbreaking.
Andrew Raslan If they did the song now, after season 5, the video would be an hour long.
@@ireallyreallyhategoogle and if they did the song now if would be 8 hours long
This brought back memories I'd rather have forgotten. A time where I innocently thought Ned would be the hero throughout. I was so young, naive...unprepared.
Amen brother
You should have known better. He's played by Sean Bean.
Amy Summers GRRM bearks all the rules so it was ok to hope
amanda Welschmeyer That's why we love/hate him.
+Amy Summers Made my day, thank you
Who ever player arya in this looks so similar to Maisie
it's uncanny.
I thought it was the same person at first.
...Really? Her Arya is a dead ringer for Asha Greyjoy.
I think it's Ginny Di.
You have to do another verse now about the red wedding! :)
definitley
i concur
@@yotamolenik550 Lpl
Watch game of thrones they said. It will be fun, they said.
Started watching happily as a sweet summerchild...
But winter is coming.
People a dying.
And all the died characters' faces now fly around me in my dreams.
Mad King Joffrey laughing like a maniac all the time.
Ah, too bad you didnt say "are"...
Oh yes... oops, typo. Lol
Happens to the best
Only problem with this is the believing Ned Stark wouldn't die. I mean when you cast Sean Bean as a character you know bad things will happen to him.
True! Sean Bean - The Walking Spoiler :-D And every time another character dies on the show I'm humming 'Now he's just a character I used to know...'
poor boromir :/
True, but some of us less familiar with his career only know the Sean Bean rule because of this show.
There is literally ONLY ONE film where Sean Bean's character DOESN'T die. #truth
XD
Chai Tehillah 7 films :P
Is that a shrine to all the dead characters? Think you need to make a bit more room on there for Season 5...
Oh, they can take a character or two off the shrine next season... ;)
Fergus hudson wha- ?! O.O
Shush child.,..you will know.
clol159 RIP in piece Stannis the Mannis.
clol159 It's an old video and it says season 1.
By the end of season 5, there aren't that many original characters left.
Well done! The Arya resemblance is striking!
I just wonder how you reacted to the Red Wedding.
I walked around holding my stomach for a week. If I'd been pregnant when I watched that I would've miscarried. That was some fucked up shit.
George was probably laughing at people's reactions to it. That sadistic bastard!
It's Game of Thrones. Characters dying randomly is part of the program.
in the books no preggo woman got stabbed in the belly btw ye feckin plebs. Robbs wife was neither present nor pregnant.
She wasn't present, but I am pretty sure she was pregnant.
Maybe I'm mixing her up with Edmure's wife though, or they are both pregnant...
The costuming was perfect!
George RR Martin: Have a favorite character? Not anymore.
Me coming back and listening to this after watching the whole series
I've watched this parody a billion times, and I love it so. But! That price tag on the goblet's bottom at 1:52 still makes me smile.
....WHOOPS.
I think it adds a degree of awesome! Besides, I doubt many noticed; took my 20+ time rewatching the video before I saw it, LOL.
Jacqueline Marie I haven't noticed :o
notliterally lol you really haven't noticed it before? I noticed it when this was first released and thought it was there just for lols :D really nice work though,
sandro ninua Yep, we did it on purpose as a joke... definitely. Not a mistake. A joke. >__>
Ginny look eerily like Arya while Cersei and Dana could be twins.
I was thinking the same thing
omg hey cx
I'm seeing you everywhere what is this sorcery
Haha
I feel sorry for these two when they finally watched the later seasons.
"Now and then I think back to 2011"
Well that's a 2020 vibe right there
I'd love to see a remake post red wedding :)
This is great. I love the way Cersei is played here. ^.^
0:53 - OMG - I literally cried. THE TARDIS on a mug? This video increased in epicness by 10x already.
She looks SO much like Arya. Good job!
This was such an amazing channel. I still come back to it at times. The production values of the music and accompanying videos were amazing. Given the garbage that gains traction on TH-cam it is truly disheartening that you guys did not take off. Know that your work was definitely valued and appreciated.
Totally agree, these two and their team did an amazing job.
Everybody dies, Hodor just needs a little help.
Hodor.
unfabgirl
Hodor.
Tetra Canabinol Hodor hodor.
unfabgirl hodoorrr?
Daryl Hodor.
"I went through a whole tissue box" yeah me too, didn't cry though
Omf
Most underrated comment 2016
Thank you your Grace :D
lol
evan shankar Yeah, I milked my eel in a pot of turtle stew :D
Man, almost a decade later and it's more like "And now it's just that one show that I used to know." Who'd've thought something everyone was watching and loving would be something everyone would try to forget in the end?
This is gives me feels to before a show ruined my whole life forever
Then after that the books did
THEY WERE ALL SO HAPPY ONCE
REMEMBER FIRST CHAPTERS WHEN THEY WERE ALL RIGHT
I'm supposed to be studying for a final right now
I'm supposed to be working on speech about the War of 1812.
Did you all pass?
"Who else can they possibly kill?!" That look! I sat there and laughed for the longest time! Because I think we've all had that moment.
Jamies sword-hand, and Theon´s saussage... also body parts that I used to know!
WARNING: don't EVER think Sean bean will make it
Venom Pool Troy disproves this. He survives in Troy (I mean okay, he spends 10 years trying to get home after the last scene, but he lives...).
I love the little shrines for the dead with the candles they have below the television.
the girl who played arya was perfect
"It can't possibly get any worse."
Damn it, Jon Snow made me cry. And I never cry.
Im STILL in SEASON 2 ! Please tell me he stays :(
He's eaten alive by white walkers.
Just kidding, or am I???
I wont tell but I hope you enjoy the show and hate GRRM all the way to the end (of this season for 10 months)
+gore and perkins fan but he is back ^^ even GOT fucks nature 😏
This is downright amazing! I can't get it out of my head, wandering around humming it while grocery-shopping and suddenly blurting out "Come on, he was her Suuuuun-and-Stars, he got a goddamn papercut, are you for real?!" (Luckily there was just a bunch of older people (who I really hope don't speak English...) with me in the supermarket xD)
Now and then I think back to 2011 back in season 1 when all the characters were well written
Well in game of thrones it goes like this:
Everyone you like will die and everyone you dislike will live a bit longer before dying in a shitty way
I've pretty much accepted that if you like a character expect them to die pretty soon. It's amazing Tyrion and Arya have lasted this long. It'll surely break my heart when Martin kills them off.
only got 2 more books to do it in.
"george rr martin why are you such a sadistic bastard" still true even today. he's been torturing us for 12 years and still no Winds of Winter in sight.
Khal drogo was my favorite. They had a chance to bring him back to life with that magic thing but turned him into a vegetable. God damn it!
that witch said she chose to turn him in to that he could have been normal if she wanted
aslokaa
i didnt get that from what i saw i think it was like "you asked for life and you got life" kinda thing so she could only make him live but because he had already died his "spirit" had left so he might of well have been dead
The Dothraki destroyed Mirri Maz Duur's village, that's the whole reason she was there in a first place. Betraying them and making Drogo's wounds fatal (and returning him catatonic) was her revenge.
but Kaaaaarl
shut the fuck up and its spellt khal drogo khal is his tital as leader of the horsepeople i cant remember what they are called
"He got a goddamn paper cut, are you for real"
Oh my gosh, I laughed so much
2011, when all the characters were still alive?
Not to the readers. ;)
I've read the books, and boy, the tv watchers haven't seen anything yet.
i think feast of crows is the badbookin the series
Flavius CAtalin If you read it back to back with a dance with dragons it becomes really really engrossing. It's a terrible book because really it's half a book.
I think the red wedding has prepared most of them emotionally. Season 4 will be when things go crazy and characters die left and right but really the next hard part will be the end of book 5 (although maybe it's not final...) which will be like Season 5 or 6.
You wanna know the most saddest death for me? Three words, Hold The Door
Finaly Dishonored lol
[Alpha] Raptorhunter most undeserved death "The trial can wait, we all need to leave"
J Red panda lol
That's it......I've now ran out of favorite characters in game of thrones.
darrell kempf Nah, i'm on team white walkers now.
Kyle Kwalter Whaddya mean you've run out of favourite characters? There's still Tyrion Fucking Lannister!
PhazonSpaceSystems I'm not going to invest in anyone anymore. After the season 5 finale i can't handle another beloved character death.
Kyle Kwalter But the dragons are still there.
Snow isn't dead lel
Ahh, book 1....good times...alive times....-sobs-
And now season 8 is here. And we cant remember half we lost. But the ache is still there.
Really 10 years!!!
I know right, where has the time gone.
*Pretty fun video of parody for Game of Thrones*
Beware spoilers ahead!! Watch season 1 of the show before that video.
she looks like arya
oberyn... favorite....so sad
My fav was Stannis😩
yes. I adored oberyn
Archslayer442 it's probably littlefinger now he's very entertaining
I really hope in some point at season 8 we have Ned talk to one of his kids through a vision or a dream or bran's powers or somehow, we need more of him and his fatherly love to his kids
I'm so sad you guys don't make anymore contents, this was all so good, i hope you are all ok tho !
I heard that if you read A Game of Thrones enough times, Dany and Drogo live happily ever after, Ned lets Renly kill Cersei and Joffrey and Renly says "Oops" when he aims chick Moriarty at Robert.
+Doctor van Nostrand That is an urban legend, a myth, a rumor.
"Killed em. Killed em good" - George rr.martin
This show (and obviously Harry Potter) has really changed my whole life forever I’m obsessed and I will be so sad when it ends just like with HP I’m still sad that they’ll never make another HP but my god Game of Thrones is like amazing
We need this again but talking about the last season 😂
The King In The North!
The King in The North
The King In The North!
The King In The North!
The King In The North!
The King In The North!
RIP Irish sounding wildling that was oddly even more attractive to me once she had those blue ice zombie eyes
Nice Video, And great singing. Now do Season 2!
I love the geek paraphernalia throughout this whole clip. The star wars posters on the wall, the Pikachu slippers, the Mario mushroom cushion, the Dr Who coffee mug, the tee-shirts - one Browncoats (from Firefly/Serenity), the other Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog (I guess they are Nathan Fillion fans).
The other thing I love is how their mascara starts to run from crying after people start to die, and the little candles with their pictures. That ladies, is attention to detail that makes me love this clip.
The singing is awesome, great voices!
the title of this seems much more relevant now
I didn't realize how old this video is.
RIP Margaery Tyrell, a character I used to know
you guys need to update ur song ver 2 ..... for red wedding
oh and purple coming soon too so ... ver 3 ?? ?
I need a friend like that to watch and fangirl over Game of Thrones and Star Trek.
Damn, watched this video back when season for released, now it poped up again
The Nostalgia..
Who had the most fucked up/brutal death yet? I`d say Oberyn, but then closely followed by Robb`s wife. She didn`t have the most violent of the bunch, sure. But it was just disturbing and sick seeing a pregnant woman getting repeatedly stabbed in the womb.
Torstein C well in the books Jeyne Westerling is still alive and will be saved by Jaime XD
+Arana975 Jaime doesn't need to save her because she was pardoned by the Iron Throne.
Well, at least my favourite character, Ramsay Snow will never die...
TheSM4e Ramsay Snow and Jon Snow are not the same, or even close to the same character.
Ramsay Snow is gonna end up being eaten by his own dogs.
DSFARGEG00 That would be a very satisfying death, but I don't think George is the kind of person who kills bad guys...
Mining Forge Not going to spoil anything, just wanted to say that George kills every type of character. Bad guys are not safe either.
***** Bad guys are safer than good guys... I mean let's face it- no one good is gonna win in the end (STOP READING if you haven't read all the books, spoilers)... I mean all the favourites are gonna die- Jon Snow is the dead proof of that, and I think Daenarys is a favourite who hasn't had anything bad happen to her in a while- I reckon Martin would kill her in maybe the last book- Ramsay is a character everyone hates, just like Joffrey, so Martin will extend his life as long as possible before ending it, if he does indeed end it.
Liked. Well done. The costumes were cute. You managed to be charming even with the grisly subject.
"Who else could they possibly kill?" Pure comedic genius, as i have come to expect it ^^ Thank you!
Oh, sweet summer childs... You know nothing yet.
I love this song ! And Sersei is just perfect in the video
Cersei*
Yes sorry, my finger touched "S"
A show that I used to know.
if you think this has a happy ending you haven't been paying attention
- peter dinkeledge
i dunno but i seen it on his twitter after the red wedding
Ramsey snowwwww but true shit
He's actually a bastard so yes, snow. Not Bolton.
*****
Look it up :)
isnt Ramsay the bastard of Bolton
Am I the only one hoping Notlitterally will have one more video after season 8 wraps?
So... I've seen this video at least ten times just because it was a good song. Then, I actually watched GoT. This is my first time watching since... I cried.
Are you caught up in Game of Thrones?
Yes.
i miss joffrey, such a cool kid
Ginny is Arya and Dana is Cersei, period. Or, well, due to age difference, more like Myrcella.
we should of seen Ned Stark dying coming because he was played by Sean bean who dies in everything lol
This was very well done!! I'm so looking forward to Season 7 next month!!!
"Some men just want to watch the world burn" Alfred was actually talking about George R.R Martin
An updated remake to this would be about 30 minutes long
I don't watch Game of Thrones, but this is AWESOME!!!! enedina gonzalez
OMG hahahaha good stuff
enedina gonzalez I thought you would like it.
Okay, Ginny does kind of look like Maisie, who plays Arya!
Okay so it wasn't just me!!
Casey Vaught Yeah she does, she could be Maisie's sister.
You guys are bloody adorable. :)
This is something like my 5th watching, I just noticed the shrine they make with the monitor and the pics of the dead characters! Was a nice bonus.
"Wipe them out. All of them."
-Palpatine/probably GRRM at some point
Imagine a Moffet/GRRM partnership... OH FUCK!
Oh my god I might just lose my mind if that happened.
All characters would be dead in the first 5 mins!
My fav character will live on! Arya!!!
Unmukt Joshi come on she got stabbed and survived Plus she is a stark they never survive but she did...
season 7: *Arya Stark get a paper cut and dies*
Did anyone notice that the one girl who plays Arya in the video actually LOOKS like Arya? Scary stuff.
Thank you for having this song stuck in my head
Oh the spoilers I could release. "I can already hear a thousand fans crying" it's beautiful.
Hodor :)
HAHAHAHHA U SIR MADE MY DAY
hahahahahahahaha so funny hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaa i am screaming
Eva Kiara HODOR :D
Still Watching this in season 7
