Never has a game scared me, and then put such a huge smile on my face. When that elevator stopped and the 4 turrets were there, I thought Glados really finally had killed us, then the music started and I remembered how to breath again
i like to think that Chell actually died there, and the turrets "singing" was Chell hallucinating as she died, explaining the weird turrets, the fact that she didn't exit into the Aperture Science town, and the burned up Companion Cube somehow coming up right behind her. especially after the 6th TF2 comic.
Ellen McLain, the Voice for GLaDOS, The Voice for the TF2 Announcer, and many more females from Valve games, She also is a Opera Singer... and she sung this "Turret Opera" here. Lovely woman.

The first time I beat the game and saw/heard this, it blew my mind. My only thought at the time was "THE TURRETS ARE FUCKING SINGING AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL."
I just beat the games 3 days ago and I could say is ''This is definitly one of the best games ever made'' I would repeat it in my head as I was speechless with how perfectly the loop is closed for this story
One thing I noticed is that turret that was singing solo when chell entered the room turned off and didin’t turn back on so did I he just decide to use his last remaining power to sing to the women who helped save the facility
I love it when games have a seemingly humorous theme when you play it, but when you actually sit down and examine the lore and review the cutscenes from the actual game you discover the game is actually much more grim and scary. I'm serious, just thinking about all that went down in Aperture Laboratories with GLadOS and what Doug Rattman had to go through gives me goosebumps.
Actually, isn't. That's where you go if you don't want to be judged/you didn't much of good or bad, and your best friend won't be there, the place where you go if you were good is a paradise city/island, and if you are re-incarnated and make it to the paradise city thing, then you go to a very special place where only the best of humanity who have lived three times and done amazingly good things get there.

always gives me chills when the king turret begins man, what a good game. i don't get why some people are saying there needs to be a third portal, its fine just as it is. glados is in the abandoned labratory doing whatever she wants, chell escapes off to explore the abandoned world, and wheatley is just kinda out there. perfection.
The co-op campaign (which takes place after the single player campaign) ends with Galdos finding a vault containing thousands of humans in cryosleep and freeing them so she can initiate mass testing.
Honestly I'd love a portal game that takes place during the GlaDOS incident (where you'd play as one of the aperture employees, maybe even Rat man!) or in-between Portal and Portal 2. Chell's story is definetly over and it would be weird to continue it imo.
Proof that GLaDOS still has Caroline in her: The whole point of GLaDOS letting Chell go was - "You're too hard to kill, gtfo" But once you're in the elevater with the turrents aiming at you, they don't shoot; which proves that GLaDOS (or Caroline) intentionally spared her life
I almost got an heart attack when I saw the turrets and I thought "well fuck you glados, for a while I thought you're not going ton kill me" then they started to sing and waterfalls were opened :|
Long Auduong I actually speak Italian so listening to the song I immediately got feels without having to have it translated for me. Such feels I cannot even hold.
1:07 and beyond gives me chills. the slow moment on the turret floor made you think about what was going on initially, but when the elevator was rising, you had time to think "wow, this game was amazing" with outstanding vocals in the background guiding you as you're finally free.
Nowadays, this song makes me cry so much that while I listen to it, I cry about the days that valve wasn’t greedy. That valve would save Team Fortress 2 right now
I dunno why but this song makes me want to cry. maybe because portal 2 was such a crazy journey and ending up becoming friends with GLaDOS all to have her dump you out of the blue and give you this lovely piece on the way out is such a bittersweet thing. really. from this ending it makes it hard to think that there will be a portal 3 (if that even is likely knowing valve, maybe portal 2 episode 1 and 2 from different characters perspectives?)
She wanted you dead for the longest and lost her humanity since the first game. I almost cried because the song seemed so emotional and sincere which was the exact opposite of GLaDOS
+builttoscalevideos It will make you really cry when you understand the lyrics, even IF Caroline (who GLaDOS used to be) isn't related to Chell, for the two to form such a partnership and for her to rekindle her humanity (it's implied that she pretended to delete Caroline to scare you away). Her song here is one of a mother (in a sense) telling her little girl she loves her, but that she has to go and leave her, as that is what's best for both of them. I gotta go tell my mom I love her now... dammit Valve, this game was so funny, but between this and Wheatley you had to make me cry!
I remember GLaDOS hinted at the Combine's presence in the first game and in Portal 2 she said that there's nobody on the Earth now (Chell was sleeping for hundreds of years, remember?)
NetPathfinder In the first game you can see in presentations Black Mesa's logo. Plus, in half life you know that they were competing very hard and then there is the borealis that was lost, so a lot is going on.
It's more likely that it's set 20 years after when you take into account of the rate of decay and how much of the facility is destroyed, much of the vegetation likely came in from the massive gaping hole in GLaDOS' chamber and you can tell it hasn't been ridiculously long with the intact state of the shed entrance and how the papers, computers and walls are completely fine, personally i like to think that the sequence with Chell waking up years after to a ruined and different world was intended as a parallel to the introduction of Half-Life 2. And as we all know, the Resonance Cascade and 7 Hour War were events of apocalyptic significance beyond any control, and the Aperture emergency announcer did allude to something going on outside, GLaDOS knew what happened during Portal 1, it makes sense time-line wise.

Translation; Dear beautiful, my beautiful darling! My child, oh Chell! For I hold her in esteem... For I hold her in esteem. Farewell to my dear! My dear girl, why do you not walk away? Yes, away from Science, my dear, my dear girl? Ah, my beautiful! Ah, my dear! Ah, my dear! Ah, my child! Oh dear, my dear...
Caroline wasn't deleted. GLaDOS uploaded her into the Turret Wife and she was able to say goodbye to her daughter and tell her that it's a shame that she's leaving but at the same time better for both of them if she runs far away from Aperture Science.
+Team Rocket I think "Caroline deleted" thing was only a bluff. Like saying "of course i'm the same evil AI as always, so go now i'm in a good mood, or i'll regret it".
I want to say of theory, caroline was not even moved, we know that chell is mute, but if caroline is her mother, it would seem to be to make chell leave claiming that caroline is deleted, of course, cause in portal 2 chell should be able to guess who glados was, and without caroline, she would have nothing left to do in the place.
I have to admit, whenever I hear this I get misty eyed and feel like I'm going to cry. The song is absolutely beautiful and the whole game is like an emotional roller coaster. Portal 1 and 2 are the best games Valve ever made!
yes, i am 13 years late, but just imagine you were chell, and you witnessed the turrets singing this opera to you with their mere limbs. absolutely beautiful
holy shit when I first beat the game and GladOS says goodbye and then you fucking see 4 turrets I thought wtf after all we've been through you're actually gonna do me like this?? and then they started singing to me and I cried.
What if the 4 turrets actually killed Chell and the elevator rising signifies Chell's ascension to paradise and an opera is singing on her way to heaven?
I like the start when you first meet the four turrets. They like: Turret 4: Aw yeah we finally got her! Turret 3: *sighs* it's over, man...*plays violin* Turret 1 and 2 joins in Turret 4: Uh guys? She's escaping! Guys? GUYS!
Am I the only one that cried at the end or was sad about it? Because of Caroline (GLaDOS) and Cave being Chells parents and Chell had went through all that and all the other facts that happened and just ending it all as Caroline was (I think) erased from GLaDOS/Carolines Memory. Then the turret opera being about Caroline being sorry for putting Chell (Her Daughter) Through all of this. Ect.
Sion Kim I know right! With our little companion cube. At least let us go to the moon We've got the portal gun, what is she gonna do? Just sit there staring at it.
i don’t know if anyone else gets overwhelmed listening to this, something about the nostalgia i have with this game just brings me close to tears every single time i hear it without fail, i wish life was as good as it was when i played portal 2 for the first time again
That's part of it for me, I'd like to be like 15 years younger again for sure. The other part of it is just the grief of an ending. We all feel it, and the better an experience is the sadder it is for us when it ends. It's why we always beg for sequels & spinoffs & continuations for everything even though a lot of times it amounts to figurative necromancy. Portal 2 is a masterwork. It's not just a video game, it's near the peak of fictional media ever created. It tells a perfect story, it sticks around for the perfect amount of time and it ends with the kind of flourish that tells you that the people making it enjoyed every single moment of it. The sadness I feel is a longing for that first experience. I wish I could make myself play this game for the first time again. I hope I didn't take any of the experience for granted.
The orange silhouette figure running across the screen is not Doug Rattman. He's actually dead, if you read the comics Valve released for Portal 2. The story revolves around Rattman and how Chell survived and how she got into Cryosleep. It could be Gordon Freeman that's running around in Aperture, cause remember, Portal is in the Half-Life universe, so anything's possible.
For more feels you should know the translation, Chell is actually her daughter from when she was a human, and when she remembers Caroline (Her) she recognizes her child
I remember when I first heard this song, I was 15 or 16, a friend of mine in a sick kids hospital wanted to play 1 and 2 for the first time while I watched, I decided to every single day, I remembered every moment, sadly, she flatlined as the elevator was rising before getting to the first set of turrets, when the doctors came in, for whatever reason they didn't move her body or touch the computer until both songs were done, I remember thinking that it was some joke but when the songs ended, and we went to space, I seen her being taken away, I understood the situation and to this day, iv never actually played portal 1 or 2 because its too heart breaking to actually play, because all I think of is her, even if its been 5 years, I cant bring myself to playing the games. I hope when I pass on to whatever awaits for me, I can say hello to her again, I don't believe in any religion, but I hope one of them is right, that theres an after life where I can meet my friends again.
This part... I love everything in it. The way chell walks out, the turrets in the elevator, the time when you SHOT A PORTAL TO THE MOON. This game is one of a kind

Was the first video game i got, couldn't have asked for a better first experience even though i didn't understand most of the references or jokes as i was young, this will always have a place in my childhood. Thank you Valve for making a phenomenal game, wish AAA still made games like this....
This song is simply incredible. Like many of you, I thought Glados had finally played their final trick, but no, and then the music begins. One detail is that my native language is Portuguese, so it simply gave me goosebumps listening to Italian and understanding much of the context of the song since to a certain extent the Italian language is quite "intelligible" for a Brazilian.
the countless test chambers, Gladdos, turrets, remnants of Cave johnson and Caroline - leaving all of this behind... they will be down there... forever...

Taylan Epik well...one religion states, that when a person dies, he's lifted up to the heaven, witch looks like an endless wheat field, while angels sing a beautiful song and in the heaven you are with your best friend that died to. so Chell actually got shot by the turrets and died. elevator = lifting up singing angels = turrets wheat field = wheat field best friend = burned companion cube the same thing happened at the end of the movie gladiator + there has been more greek mythology easter eggs in portal 2
I lack the words to fully explain how much the portal games, and this ending in particular, affected me. I finished portal two close to the end of high school and it’s ending parallels the sensation I felt at the end of being thrust out into a world that’s very different from what you’ve known until then.

It's more likely that it's set 20 years after when you take into account of the rate of decay and how much of the facility is destroyed, much of the vegetation likely came in from the massive gaping hole in GLaDOS' chamber and you can tell it hasn't been ridiculously long with the intact state of the shed entrance and how the papers, computers and walls are completely fine, personally i like to think that the sequence with Chell waking up years after to a ruined and different world was intended as a parallel to the introduction of Half-Life 2. And as we all know, the Resonance Cascade and 7 Hour War were events of apocalyptic significance beyond any control, and the Aperture emergency announcer did allude to something going on outside, GLaDOS knew what happened during Portal 1, it makes sense time-line wise.

Translation;
Dear beautiful, my beautiful darling!
My child, oh Chell!
For I hold her in esteem...
For I hold her in esteem.
Farewell to my dear!
My dear girl,
why do you not walk away?
Yes, away from Science,
my dear, my dear girl?
Ah, my beautiful!
Ah, my dear!
Ah, my dear!
Ah, my child!
Oh dear, my dear...
Good job reading the description!
Caroline wasn't deleted. GLaDOS uploaded her into the Turret Wife and she was able to say goodbye to her daughter and tell her that it's a shame that she's leaving but at the same time better for both of them if she runs far away from Aperture Science.
+Team Rocket I think "Caroline deleted" thing was only a bluff. Like saying "of course i'm the same evil AI as always, so go now i'm in a good mood, or i'll regret it".
In the song “want you gone” GLaDOS says “now little Caroline is in here too”
This makes no sense to me sry
I want to say of theory, caroline was not even moved, we know that chell is mute, but if caroline is her mother, it would seem to be to make chell leave claiming that caroline is deleted, of course, cause in portal 2 chell should be able to guess who glados was, and without caroline, she would have nothing left to do in the place.
I can't believe it... It gave me feels...
NO MORE FEELS
*grabs a gun*
DA FEELZ BRO I KNOW MAN I KNOW...
I want this on my funeral
It's been almost 11 years, still the best game I ever have played.
This really got me emotional, because I got so connected to GLaDOS and Wheatley, and I didn't want it to end.
years later, and this still makes me cry
Same.
Still a epic sight that an army of machines can come together to sing chell goodbye.
I have to admit, whenever I hear this I get misty eyed and feel like I'm going to cry. The song is absolutely beautiful and the whole game is like an emotional roller coaster. Portal 1 and 2 are the best games Valve ever made!
i have a scene inspired by the turret opera in my book and i cried while writing it
@@aosevenvultures5368 That's kinda weird.
@@dillis2188no it's not lmao
yes, i am 13 years late, but just imagine you were chell, and you witnessed the turrets singing this opera to you with their mere limbs. absolutely beautiful
Glados is a beautiful singer.
*****
Is she the turret qween? cuz her husband is the animal king
Siti Lula queen not qween
***** But... the lyrics are clearly from GlaDos to Chell. Even if she's not actually singing, she's the one who wrote the lyrics (cannonically).
@@iod353iw the voice actor for Glados is also the prima donna turret.
She sings the opera
Ellen McLain
After years of not hearing this song, all I could do is tear up.
It has been 13 years and we’re not getting any younger
0:21 and 0:26
look closely at the background! the companion cube is going through the pipes! :D
Yes I saw that cube 🙂
I thought that was an animal and got scared
Yeah I was too focused in the song when I finished the game, and couldn't pay attention to that detail. Thank you :'D
People theorize that's Ratmann trying to escape with the cube, it's actually the cube turrets Wheatley created.
Who knew robots who would kill me would give such feels
Making New Channel :(... Read my About page. TRUE
i felt sad when portal 2 ended
Didn’t we all.
holy shit when I first beat the game and GladOS says goodbye and then you fucking see 4 turrets I thought wtf after all we've been through you're actually gonna do me like this?? and then they started singing to me and I cried.
What if the 4 turrets actually killed Chell and the elevator rising signifies Chell's ascension to paradise and an opera is singing on her way to heaven?
12 years... and it still brings me tears :_D
I like the start when you first meet the four turrets. They like:
Turret 4: Aw yeah we finally got her!
Turret 3: *sighs* it's over, man...*plays violin*
Turret 1 and 2 joins in
Turret 4: Uh guys? She's escaping! Guys? GUYS!
Those four turrets are actually design to play music. If you saw the easter egg, you'll know this.
pretty sure they heard from Glados already. Plus the other turrets too
*"Wow, the new Samsung Galaxy Home smart speaker looks awesome"*
ِ *Slow clap*
I would buy that, even if it cost 100$
To this day, this is still one of my favorite game endings.
ye.
1st.
2nd is undertale. (don't be mad. I'm just a bit of a fan for now.)
I've never played undertale haha, maybe I should.
@@ae-wl3py
Undertale has three so really
1portal 2
2 undertale [ pacifist ending?]
3 undertale [ neutral?]
4 (something else or[undertale genocide?])
Am I the only one that cried at the end or was sad about it? Because of Caroline (GLaDOS) and Cave being Chells parents and Chell had went through all that and all the other facts that happened and just ending it all as Caroline was (I think) erased from GLaDOS/Carolines Memory. Then the turret opera being about Caroline being sorry for putting Chell (Her Daughter) Through all of this. Ect.
Nope you are not alone.
The ending would have been better if you could walk a bit through the golden fields. Just a little bit of freedom for the play :)
Sion Kim I know right! With our little companion cube. At least let us go to the moon We've got the portal gun, what is she gonna do? Just sit there staring at it.
Everytime I hear the turret Opera and the ending song of portal 2 I cry... No games nor movies made me feel like that.
There is no way in hell they are her parents unless she is adopted.
Its been 12 years, i finished game 7 or 8 times, thanks for good childhood portal 2...
Omg ikr Its litteraly my childhood
Shit makes me cry everytime because as of now, it’s really the end.
To this day this is one of the most memorable gaming moments to me and portal will always have a special place in my heart
i don’t know if anyone else gets overwhelmed listening to this, something about the nostalgia i have with this game just brings me close to tears every single time i hear it without fail, i wish life was as good as it was when i played portal 2 for the first time again
That's part of it for me, I'd like to be like 15 years younger again for sure. The other part of it is just the grief of an ending. We all feel it, and the better an experience is the sadder it is for us when it ends. It's why we always beg for sequels & spinoffs & continuations for everything even though a lot of times it amounts to figurative necromancy.
Portal 2 is a masterwork. It's not just a video game, it's near the peak of fictional media ever created. It tells a perfect story, it sticks around for the perfect amount of time and it ends with the kind of flourish that tells you that the people making it enjoyed every single moment of it.
The sadness I feel is a longing for that first experience. I wish I could make myself play this game for the first time again. I hope I didn't take any of the experience for granted.
It has been over 13 years, and this game is still one of my favorite valve games. "MIA CARA ADIO"
The orange silhouette figure running across the screen is not Doug Rattman. He's actually dead, if you read the comics Valve released for Portal 2. The story revolves around Rattman and how Chell survived and how she got into Cryosleep. It could be Gordon Freeman that's running around in Aperture, cause remember, Portal is in the Half-Life universe, so anything's possible.
tell me when? the orange silhouette figure appeared?
Wait when
I accidentally figured out how to play this on my clarinet
This always made me cry
I was sitting in the living room at 2am crying....
Even after 10 years this song hits hard as a truck 😢 golden game
This actually made me cry.
I DON'T WANT YOUR FREEDOM GLADOS PUT ME BACK IN THE FUCKING CHAMBERS
For more feels you should know the translation, Chell is actually her daughter from when she was a human, and when she remembers Caroline (Her) she recognizes her child
I like how 3 turrets are singing and the fourth one is making sure you’re not doing anything stupid
I remember when I first heard this song, I was 15 or 16, a friend of mine in a sick kids hospital wanted to play 1 and 2 for the first time while I watched, I decided to every single day, I remembered every moment, sadly, she flatlined as the elevator was rising before getting to the first set of turrets, when the doctors came in, for whatever reason they didn't move her body or touch the computer until both songs were done, I remember thinking that it was some joke but when the songs ended, and we went to space, I seen her being taken away, I understood the situation and to this day, iv never actually played portal 1 or 2 because its too heart breaking to actually play, because all I think of is her, even if its been 5 years, I cant bring myself to playing the games. I hope when I pass on to whatever awaits for me, I can say hello to her again, I don't believe in any religion, but I hope one of them is right, that theres an after life where I can meet my friends again.
I thought glados betrayed me and i was gonna have to go through one more fight. Then they sang.
1:00
I like to think that the moving turret in the background is actually Doug Rattman secretly leaving the facility.
Sorry bro, that's a frakenturret
He knows, he just wants to believe. I think of it as Doug too.
Bruh, that’s a frankenturret or cube turret
@@Swivelbot Did you not read? He knows, but wants to think that it's doug leaving,
This part... I love everything in it. The way chell walks out, the turrets in the elevator, the time when you SHOT A PORTAL TO THE MOON. This game is one of a kind

Subarashis Shawshank redemption, nice.
13 years later and this is still the best portal song
This song gives me an intense emotion I cannot describe
Dude, same.
This gave me nostalgia for over 10 years
A Frankenturret (the cube-turret hybrids) can be seen near the back on the opera on the right, on the same level as the prima Donna turret.
They do not make games like this anymore.... they had so much. Love, character, and just plain entertainment. An era of gaming that truly was amazing
0:43 POV: You just whiffed in csgo
I want this to be played at my funeral. It’s my most memorable song in any game I have ever played and it should be praised more for it’s place.
God this hits hard now. The nostalgia is overwhelming
i remember i got this game on my dads pc. Was the first video game i got, couldn't have asked for a better first experience even though i didn't understand most of the references or jokes as i was young, this will always have a place in my childhood. Thank you Valve for making a phenomenal game, wish AAA still made games like this....
This song is simply incredible.
Like many of you, I thought Glados had finally played their final trick, but no, and then the music begins.
One detail is that my native language is Portuguese, so it simply gave me goosebumps listening to Italian and understanding much of the context of the song since to a certain extent the Italian language is quite "intelligible" for a Brazilian.
00:11 I still always get chills from that part. Such a lovely song/.
I'm holding my tears
Aww I love this part... I remember hearing them sing throughout the game
I CRIED IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL T-T
Me as well
the countless test chambers, Gladdos, turrets, remnants of Cave johnson and Caroline - leaving all of this behind...
they will be down there... forever...

Best ending to a video game ever made. So beautifully made. And I love the hints aswell haha.
Having never played this game, I can still admire the music!
Play It. Now. It's an unique experience
@@ggs27 I really, really wish I had time, but I work as a teacher primarily and just found out that all of my planned face-to-face classes for the fall will now be online, so I am having to switch weeks worth of lectures to online versions in less than two months. So, my video game time is pretty much limited to playing a song or two in Rock Band when I take a short break.
@@HistoryandHeadlines If you don't have time, I understand, but if you can, I absolutely recomend it. If you don't, it's ok
An elegy wrapped in somber hues, a symphony woven from the very threads of mortality, its melancholia as boundless as the chasm of oblivion.
It's even sadder, when you know about the ,,chell is dead'' theory
Alpik Can anyone tell me what is it about?
Taylan Epik You mean the Chell is dead theory ?
Yes.I would really like to know what it's about.
Taylan Epik well...one religion states, that when a person dies, he's lifted up to the heaven, witch looks like an endless wheat field, while angels sing a beautiful song and in the heaven you are with your best friend that died to. so Chell actually got shot by the turrets and died. elevator = lifting up
singing angels = turrets
wheat field = wheat field
best friend = burned companion cube
the same thing happened at the end of the movie gladiator + there has been more greek mythology easter eggs in portal 2
That's...deep man.Really deep.Just thinking about it makes me feel bad. :( Thanks for explaining btw you really helped me.
So, i'm just thinking that king turret is Cave Johnson
i sang that song, we really miss chell
Im different
There you are.
I see you.
I'm*
I lack the words to fully explain how much the portal games, and this ending in particular, affected me. I finished portal two close to the end of high school and it’s ending parallels the sensation I felt at the end of being thrust out into a world that’s very different from what you’ve known until then. There’s a bit of Plato’s allegory of the cave to it
This game that is $10 is more worth it than most $60 games today
I love all valve game
even next game will cost me 120$ I'll still buy it
+maxboripat how about $121?
1000$ is the most I can pay for one game...or even 1001$
how about 125$
well you wont buy it because there wont BE a next game, valve doesnt make games.. remember the meme "remember when valve used to make games?"
even if it's artifact?
1:02 Hey who's that fellow in the third right row in the back?
The one who's waving?
Is it Ratman?
Nah,it's just a frankenturret
you got me there
Torret animal king
7 years have passed. And still, every time i visit this video, it hurts like hell...
I didn't know the animal king turret even existed! I am currently playing Portal 2 and I thought Aperture just made that up!
Truly the mysteries of the world seen through the eyes of a Nintenyearold are wonders to behold.
What makes you think i'm ten?
Goodbye Portal
i love the epic bass in background
or should i say that big mother fucker in the back
The animal King turret.... Don't forget it was a possibility he ended the world lol...
idk why but the lil pause at like 13 seconds makes me emotional
has the feeling of
"we werent made to be singing"
10 years... 10 years since ive seen this video... im getting old, sheesh
Its not over till the fat turret sings.
