I can't stop crying it was so depressing and the mother wolf just wanted her child back, that's all she wanted, that's all she ever wanted that's equivalent to someone coming in and killing your child it's not right I love wolves there my favorite animal but it doesn't matter what animal it is its just sad and the wrong thing to do only hunt for food, not for trophies of helpless animals that isn't bothering you
Seeing this short film...hearing this song...it always makes me cry. Animals are not mindless beasts. They may not perceive the world as we do, nor do they have the brain capacity of us humans to see the universe as we see it, but they do have brains. Animals can think, animals can _feel_. They know pain, and from what we have seen they can know sorrow and sadness. They can know companionship too, like our own pets if we have them. When an animal does anything that may seem evil or mean it's not that they're trying to be mean, they're just trying to survive. To treat animals cruelly or as things to be used for whatever purposes we deem fit is, in my opinion, unjust. I can understand people hunting animals for food or materials. Sure, after hunting a deer maybe they'll hang the antlers on their wall but the rest of the animal is usually put to good use. Lots of people I've met don't understand that and just label it as "killing for a trophy" when it's really not, unlike the guy in this short film who kills the pup to stuff it and pose it as a trophy in his parlor. People who just kill for sport can show some of the worst in humanity, although I must admit that some of it is ethical. Also, I want to address this, forgive me if I'm biased or wrong in any way. I eat meat. I love the taste of meat and eat it daily. I can't deny it, although I may attempt to be vegetarian/vegan at some point in my life. It's just not something I'm currently willing to give up. An animal suffers to give me nutrition, and I'm thankful for that. What I cannot understand, is some people hating on others because they eat meat and don't "care" about the animals that died. It's just not true. Sure, I may not think of the animal who died when I eat BBQ Ribs but I don't eat BBQ Ribs just to be cruel or because I don't care about an animal's death. So I have to ask all those out there who go hating on hunters for hunting to sustain themselves and normal people for being omnivores to stop. It's really just uncalled for. The short film Wolfsong is meant to point out one of the many faults in humanity. It's not meant as a trigger to go hating on every hunter and meat eater out there. I was saddened to see a comment hating on these types of people just because of that. If you read this whole thing, I thank you for taking you precious time to do so.
I agree with you. Some of my family members hunt deer (including my dad) but only during hunting season. We aren't allowed to kill fawns or doe, we are only allowed to hunt old bucks. And we have hunting season specifically for deer because of over population. Besides, whatever we get, we skin and take the meat to be processed. At first, I was against killing and eating deers, until my mom and dad told me that they were over populating the forest and that their teeth eventually wares down causing them to starve to death so by killing the old ones, we're sparring them from the pain of starvation.
I agree with both of you, animals are amazing, some animals help with human emotions more than the human's family, like me and my family and my dad's dog Toes, when I go in a room with him upset I start laughing because he always wants to play and kisses me a bunch, me and my family think he is part fox, and I love our little fox, along with helping emotions animals can do more, like horses can help people physically and mentally, riding a horse fixed someone's intestines and riding a horse can help with autism, and dogs can lead people to their owner if they are hurt, my mom's dog from years back took down a bunch of criminals, and he wasn't ever a police dog, animals also can figure out if someone is good or bad by reading their emotions, honestly I have said repeatedly animals are better than humans, except in some cases, and my opinion on wolves? if I saw someone hunting a wolf I would be hunting a hunter, I love wolves they are my favorite animal because of the pet I had when I was little who was part wolf, she died years ago but I still love her so much, I honestly love it when people visit with wolves and show to the world that they are not evil, that they can become friends with humans like any dog, and many people raise lions and someone tells them to get rid of it and they take it to a place where it could be free and years later they go to that place and the lion loves on them, just like a cat would, actually more like how a humanized cat would because the lion hugged them and loved on them, and historically a dog who was half wolf half husky saved bunches of people by helping to deliver medicine to a town, if you look up Balto that movie was based off of a true story that happened I don't even know how long ago, animals are amazing, more amazing than most people, honestly if I had to chose between living with a wolf pack or living with my sister I would live with the wolves, call me crazy but I really would

My lyrics for the lullaby from 4:29 - 5:54 Come now with me Don't be afraid It's time to smile Both you and me You are my heart You are my soul All is okay Now you're with me You're not alone Let's just sleep Someday I'll get up and see you...again See you again...That's a dream It can't be You're not with me Darling where are you Don't hide, I love you So now let's go home and go back sleep Always love you Inside my dreams....
My lyrics for 4:29.... Baby come here Mama is near There is no fear Wipe all your tears Stay near the light And not in the dark I will be there There is no harm But then one day They took you away I will never see you ever...again .. Never again.. I have tried To help you But I’m too late Your gone forever There is no faith But you may now rest And you are safe I am still here Rest in your grave. (Music).. the end
I couldn't not cry while just listening to this music I have been crying for at least 6 mins now if I see the animation, the pictures from it, or hear the music I'm going to start crying it's just so sad
The song of the Wolf flows through me. I feel it in my blood, giving me life. The one who had so lovingly my cared for me, her song, is our song now, and will be passed down generation to generation, from one to another, another to one. The ethereal lullaby, howled in the most beautiful of voices, rings in my head, protecting me from the darkness. This, truly, is the Wolfsong.
This short was just... phenomenal. I've never been so emotionally moved by something of such a small length. Also, as most people have said this song is just a masterpiece and in my opinion, one of your best emotional songs to date. Keep it up. :)
As one who has a strong love for wolves this song really speaks to me. It represents the horror & struggles wolves have to go through because of these damn humans who hunt for sport.
I showed the animation to my mom and she said that pay back is hell and then she told me that every mom is just like that, A wolf protecting her pup, Even if it means risking her life. Just watching it a 3rd time makes me cry..
I always feel like crying to this song. The story is sad and the music so beautiful. I can barely take it all in. You're a remarkable composer. Please continue your work. I will be keeping an eye out for other pieces by you.
This music is truest beauty. It not only conveys the emotions of someone but also makes you feel those emotions. Almost any song can convey joy or anger, heck even confusion, but only the greats songs make you feel pain, lose, and deep sorrow. It makes my heart throb in sadness whenever I hear it yet I still continue to listen to it over and over again and I don’t know why. May those who are feeling such sorrow and pain remember that there is alway someone there for you when you need it all you have to do is ask.
I tried to wright my own lyrics to this, I feel it matches the feel of the lullaby. ___________________________________________________________________________ Darling, My Dear... Don't Hide In Fear... Mothers Right Here... Don't Disappear... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lay In My Arms... Away From All Harm... I'll Keep You Warm... You Are My Heart... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You Are Like Stone... Frozen, So Cold... Darling, I'll Keep You Far Away From, From Them... I Will Protect You My Darling, My Dear... Don't Run... Don't Hide In Fear.. Darling, I Love You... Your Mother's Right Here... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lay In My Arms... Away From All Harm... I'll Keep You Warm...

Simple work around for me, I have a mod that gave me a perk that makes it so all animals are non hostile from the start of the game. (Warning: If used wait until after the opening sequence to enable it or it will bug the main quest causing you to never access it) I believe the name of the mod was realm of lorkan, or something along those lines.
Such a cruel world we live in today... Where people kill magnificent creatures like wolves and elephants for fun. Especially wolves. Just the mere thought of killing these beautiful creatures makes me sad. I have never seen a wolf with my own eyes before, but they are magnificent animals, and they deserve to live. One of my goals in life is to see a wolf out in the wild with my own eyes.
I've only seen wolves on tv or in books...but they are my favorite animal...it hurts me to see one hunted or to even hear that they are being hunted.....
geniale Musik zu einem tollen Kurzfilm. Verfolge deinen Werdegang nun schon seit über 4 Jahren und Entering the Stronghold sowie With gun and Cruzifix kriegen mich immer wieder. Mach weiter so, deine Musik ist einfach toll. Alles Gute für deine Projekte und alles was zukünftig auf dich zukommen wird.
Just watched the animation and literally cried my eyes out and dont cry much.When will human greed end?My heart pains me so much right now.Bravo to Denny for the music and Toniko for this beautiful animation
For those who put thumbs down.... shame on you. This music portrays love. Loss. Not only does it tell the story but also it gives strong emotion. I love it, and this deserves more likes
the saddest part of the whole thing is when she nearly dies, she howls the song to her pup thinking they're still alive, it made me cry so hard I'm not really that sensitive but I'm not cruel hearted either..
I love the audio and the visuals remind me of the old Disney movies, the tambourine gives it such a nice winter-y feel. The piano also adds to the feels, as does the violin. Thank you for this wonderful lullaby.
Intro Vocals/humming Intrumental 0:48 Where the Moon rests on the Moor's Your home awaits You were free to roam and play 1:00 Until one unfeteful day When men with guns came to attack The young, the old, the helpless too Hide your innocent young And let us set you free But first you must run And shed many tears Dear beautiful Wolves We are sorry about what happened to you You must not cry We are here for you For now and for always We recognise our wrong We strike our evil ways I cry for you all 2:28 *Howling*
I think your music is amazing since I was playing a videogame called "Stickwar" soo many years ago. Epic and amazing music, I wonder how cool would you be in person!!
Thanks a bunch, I remember that game too well! They actually never asked for my permission to use that track, but I guess I don't mind! And I'm fairly dorky actually, not really taking myself overly serious! (:
The music of this short movie is just wonderful and heartbreaking. I have the album that it features in, The First Five Years, and never has it failed to move me so deeply or make me sob. I love the animation, which is strange because it, too, makes me weep. The only thing I would ask is why is the extended piano not on the album? It adds to the sombre, emotional side of things, and I would love to learn to play that on my own keyboard. Bravo to the composer, for it is truly a wonderful achievement to make music that so deeply moves so many people.
To all the people saying that humans are bad, stop it.. The majority would never kill animals on purpose unless its really needed for their survival. And remember; There are also humans that save animals who have been locked away and give them happy lives. We cant do anything about other's motives, but we can make the world a better place ourselves when we help where we can, even if its just a small thing. Have a nice day whoever reads this.
Even just the music is enough to make me cry... The animation never fails to make me cry either. I feel sad but at the same time happy because the two can be together again
I truly love this piece of music. Its stirring, sad, and sweet all at the same time. I remember listening to this while finishing a chapter of a book I was working on and the mood fit perfectly. Great music. The download link isn't working though.
Even if this is only the music, I cry everytime I remember that poor mother who just want to take his cub back ... and that human who can get over his pride to give it to her. That's simply horrible. The human race is the most horrible on this planet ...
Mr. Schneidemesser, I spent my entire life listening to a great variety of music. One of my favorite composers when I was a child was James Horner. When I would see his name attached to a movie, I would go and see the movie just to hear whatever masterpiece he had created for it. I never thought that I would hear anything as grand, or as beautiful as his work after his death in 2015. Then I came across your work. I watched the animation to Wolfsong many years ago, but never got a chance to thoroughly appreciate the music until now. I once again felt every wave of emotion and all of the wonderful sensations that I had felt with Horner's work. I hope this won't be the last time. Your talent is extraordinary. Please, don't let it go to waste. See you at the movies Mr. Schneidemesser.
Well ... just had my heart ripped out of my chest and stomped on multiple times. This song always makes me cry, especially after watching the video. That's all I can picture while this plays.
I've seen this short film, but I never looked into the music. Recently I saw the Fox Fires short film and had to look for the music, I had no idea you were the same composer for both! You really are amazing, I could certainly compare you to Hans Zimmer! Though in your own way, you make very mystifying music. Very emotional. I'll stick around here for a while.
YA same here I really want the sheet music PLEASE I WOULD LOVE TO LEARN TO PLAY IT! It would be difficult to try to do it by ear. Especially because I want to do it on piano and it's not all piano.
The animation kills me every time to see humans kill these animals for sport. For food I am fine but to show them off saying I killed a living thing for fun with no reason. It pains me to see that the world is like this though. You may want to make them feel ashamed but most are stuck in their ways or simply like doing it. Also, there are people out there who do care for the animals all around us that some just kill with pleasure. It will not be easy to change and I doubt we would be able to change soon. Say the global warming, no matter how hard some people try, it doesn't stop. Sea pollution. It is still happening people feel that the sea is just a big trash-can. Actually it is not. It is filled with beautiful creatures that only know how to survive. They do not know that plastic is not good or waste can carry disease. Even though there are animals that have a bad reputation, they are just doing what they know. The world has changed over the years. A lot. I wish it would suddenly vanish, but it won't.
Actually, poaching is hunting animals without the required permits and/or out of season. What your thinking of is just called sport hunting, and some of it is ethical, although many of the ones who end up on youtube are not.
Baby_owl Maybe there are some people wich do that but you dont maybe you are only one And you feel powerless But you are not You are a bigote miracle You are te biggest miracle on the World You got the power to make everything that you want And that is something that you will never loss Even if it looks impossible Even if it looks like there is no chance... Just believe in yourself Believe in what you can do You can do everything that you want, because you got the greatest power in your hands You got the power of decisión. Now you know the the truth Or maybe not,.who knows? The best that you can do is to believe, as i believe in yourself Now go Be free
Timber The Wolf they dont deserve do die the only time they attack is when they are trying to defend their young and proctecting themselves from harm i refuse to ever harm a wolf ever in my life i know when to back away from a wolf and wolves are probably one of the most beautiful creatures out there in the world i dont care what poacher think i qonder how they would like it if they were hunted for sport they probably just beg for mercy to live
I made lyrics to this song at 2:48 through 2:30 (Im not good at writing lyrics ok lol) Little puppy.. Wipe those tears away... Mother is here... You will be safe...
~ My Wolf Song ~ Never fear I'll always he here No matter how far I may be ill be near, cant you see? Your whimpers frighten me the cries are as they may be Your eyes glow with fright I cant help but wonder what might I want you safe I want you in a cave Where we can be together, warm while we are in this form others will come more will go The world isn't made for you but it isn't made for me too Ill protect you with all my strength I would protect you from the ones who crave God made us with joy not knowing that his other children used us as toys one way or another we are broken but we're also mistooken until then, we follow the light of the moon waiting until we die soon. when that happens we'll be high up in the sky playing with one another, realizing we were never a lie. ~ End ~
Hey there, i would really like to learn to play this song on piano... so i would be so grateful if someone gives me the music sheet... Just for private use, I really really want to learn it...
What kind of monster would shoot a wolf. Wolves have feelings to they want to protect there pack from danger it’s the saddest thing when a miss understood Creature like the wolf gets shot. People think wolves are deadly monsters but they have a different side to them. Which is that wolves are very peaceful,Sweet,loving,kind, beautiful,miss understood and protective creatures wolves don’t want to hurt anyone they just need there space but once they start seeing you as a friend and not as a threat they will start trusting you and when they do leave them alone because if you threaten them you will lose there trust so please don’t hunt wolves. I think hunting wolves should be illegal like and comment if you agree.
Beautiful song…anyway, I thought it is worth mentioning that most hunters are not like the ones portrayed in this animation. I come from a family of hunters, and believe me, no one cares about deer, turkeys or any animals more than we do. Yes, we *do* kill them, but we don’t just mount the horns and sell the skin. We eat them so their body doesn’t go to waste. We also take care of the deer on properties we hunt at, like filling special feeders to make them more healthy. And we most definitely do not hunt them until extinction, in fact we make the populations healthier by occasionally killing an animal. That way there is no risk of overpopulation, where there are too many deer and not enough food. I hope I have changed your opinion of hunters, or at least shown that we are not the evil murderers people think we are.
This song inspired me to write my own song Lay down a rest dear,amoung your bed of leaves.Drift off to sleep dear,your fears will appease.The terrors may frighten you,causing you to fret and fright.But on the trail of fear is,the road to moonlight Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight,Lu-lu-lay Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight, Lu-lu-lay Let the moon guide you to your rest.let the stars guide you into your quest.Where you can marvel at the world in beauty and awe,where flowers and pearls grow above your head and paws. Moonlight,moonlight,moonlight, Lu-lu-lay Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight Lu-lu-lay Moonlight,moonlight, moonlight Lu-lu-laaaaaay.
If someone can get the notes and keys for piano version out that be great. I wanna try it.. like for irl and on a virtual one. keyboard..but This warms my heart everytime

Animals are not mindless beasts. They may not perceive the world as we do, nor do they have the brain capacity of us humans to see the universe as we see it, but they do have brains.

When an animal does anything that may seem evil or mean it's not that they're trying to be mean, they're just trying to survive. To treat animals cruelly or as things to be used for whatever purposes we deem fit is, in my opinion, unjust.
I can understand people hunting animals for food or materials. Sure, after hunting a deer maybe they'll hang the antlers on their wall but the rest of the animal is usually put to good use. Lots of people I've met don't understand that and just label it as "killing for a trophy" when it's really not, unlike the guy in this short film who kills the pup to stuff it and pose it as a trophy in his parlor. People who just kill for sport can show some of the worst in humanity, although I must admit that some of it is ethical. Also, I want to address this, forgive me if I'm biased or wrong in any way.

My lyrics for the lullaby from 4:29 - 5:54
Come now with me
Don't be afraid
It's time to smile
Both you and me
You are my heart
You are my soul
All is okay
Now you're with me
You're not alone
Let's just sleep
Someday I'll get up and see you...again
See you again...That's a dream It can't be
You're not with me
Darling where are you
Don't hide, I love you
So now let's go home
and go back sleep
Always love you
Inside my dreams....
Oh my god, why did you have to put those?? They made me cry!
Good job though :)
that's so good it made me cry
Thank you :')
+Happy Tan
That just made me think of my mum...
you're a genius this is really beautiful
My lyrics for 4:29....
Baby come here
Mama is near
There is no fear
Wipe all your tears
Stay near the light
And not in the dark
I will be there
There is no harm
But then one day
They took you away
I will never see you ever...again ..
Never again..
I have tried
To help you
But I’m too late
Your gone forever
There is no faith
But you may now rest
And you are safe
I am still here
Rest in your grave.
(Music).. the end
😭
This is beutifull
*No*
*NO*
*I DID NOT NEED THIS BACK IN MY LIFE. NO.*
One of the most beautiful melodies ever written.
I remember watching the animation....never has a short film made me cry so hard. The music is truly beautiful, emotional, but truly lovely.
I couldn't not cry while just listening to this music
I have been crying for at least 6 mins now
if I see the animation, the pictures from it, or hear the music
I'm going to start crying
it's just so sad
It is sad, heart breaking. It kills me every time I watch the animation.
DreamsandReality what is the animation called?
Ashton Peterson it’s called Wolf Song
The fox eats the rabbit , the rabbit eats the grass..... the human kills them both...
I hate being a human.
Kill the wolf for the skin hm so sad
And for pleasure which is not acceptable
I think you mean all. We kill grass all the time!
Kill for fun...its good
The song of the Wolf flows through me. I feel it in my blood, giving me life. The one who had so lovingly my cared for me, her song, is our song now, and will be passed down generation to generation, from one to another, another to one. The ethereal lullaby, howled in the most beautiful of voices, rings in my head, protecting me from the darkness. This, truly, is the Wolfsong.
That was deep.
@@myyythicalart202 I agree with the guy above me
This short was just... phenomenal. I've never been so emotionally moved by something of such a small length.
Also, as most people have said this song is just a masterpiece and in my opinion, one of your best emotional songs to date.
Keep it up. :)
Yes you did, you did just cry at a instrumental song with pictures, don't be ashamed. Because it's so beautiful.
As one who has a strong love for wolves this song really speaks to me. It represents the horror & struggles wolves have to go through because of these damn humans who hunt for sport.
Exactly how I feel! Wolves are such amazing creatures and my favorite animal so I hate to see them get a bad rep.
I cried like a freaking baby. And I hardly ever cry
I showed the animation to my mom and she said that pay back is hell and then she told me that every mom is just like that, A wolf protecting her pup, Even if it means risking her life. Just watching it a 3rd time makes me cry..
Not all moms though, I actually know a few people who's moms treat them like shit and stuff.
True.
ik
let's just cover it up with jokes
knock knock
....
....
....
....
....
....
Crippling sadness ;w; ; w; ;w;
watching this a thousandth time makes me cry, the music mind you, not the animation.
Kori Kat god damn it you made me tear up
I always feel like crying to this song. The story is sad and the music so beautiful. I can barely take it all in. You're a remarkable composer. Please continue your work. I will be keeping an eye out for other pieces by you.
Why thank you, it was a real pleasure working on this, believe me! :)
It's amazing how beautiful music like this brings out the inner writer of many people.
I'm literally choking back tears right now.
ALL ABOARD THE FEELS TRAIN WOOT WOOT
+Angel Grimes Aww please don't cry... ;-;
I'm sorry I didn't even feel sad...idek, but when I saw the wolfs dead and the guy beside them I was like FUCK U STUPID GUY...
+SilentFury .jpg **slowly gets on Feels Train**
+SilentFury .jpg * Gets on feels train quickly*
HOLD IT!!!!I'M GETTING ON!!!!o(╥﹏╥)o
Its been 10 years.... 10 years and i still cry listening this
Thank you for made such a great animation and song! ❤
This is hauntingly beautiful. Simple as that.
This music is truest beauty. It not only conveys the emotions of someone but also makes you feel those emotions. Almost any song can convey joy or anger, heck even confusion, but only the greats songs make you feel pain, lose, and deep sorrow. It makes my heart throb in sadness whenever I hear it yet I still continue to listen to it over and over again and I don’t know why. May those who are feeling such sorrow and pain remember that there is alway someone there for you when you need it all you have to do is ask.
I tried to wright my own lyrics to this, I feel it matches the feel of the lullaby.

I don't know but i love the first part 00:18 i like her voice. It is just so sad and beautiful.
kittythebeautty same
kittythebeautty SAAAAAMMEEEE
Same
I was playing skyrim and a wolf came out and I was like nooo
Ever since I saw this animation, I was the same way in Skyrim.
Everytime a wolf came in skyrim: Nooo...Why is he here? I don't want to kill him *cryes* ;_;
Simple work around for me, I have a mod that gave me a perk that makes it so all animals are non hostile from the start of the game. (Warning: If used wait until after the opening sequence to enable it or it will bug the main quest causing you to never access it) I believe the name of the mod was realm of lorkan, or something along those lines.
🤣
I put a mod on my game that change animals AI to more realistic, and they run when see humans.
I can't help but listen to this over and over again...really speaks to my soul
Such a cruel world we live in today... Where people kill magnificent creatures like wolves and elephants for fun. Especially wolves. Just the mere thought of killing these beautiful creatures makes me sad. I have never seen a wolf with my own eyes before, but they are magnificent animals, and they deserve to live. One of my goals in life is to see a wolf out in the wild with my own eyes.
Tim Petersen same.
I feelthe same as well, although my love is more drawn towards the elephants. I love their magnificent beauty.
Anahi Loetz that's true, elephants are known to have great memory.
I've only seen wolves on tv or in books...but they are my favorite animal...it hurts me to see one hunted or to even hear that they are being hunted.....
I love wolf's thay my fav animal
geniale Musik zu einem tollen Kurzfilm. Verfolge deinen Werdegang nun schon seit über 4 Jahren und Entering the Stronghold sowie With gun and Cruzifix kriegen mich immer wieder. Mach weiter so, deine Musik ist einfach toll. Alles Gute für deine Projekte und alles was zukünftig auf dich zukommen wird.
IM NOT CRYING YOURE CRYIGN
what?! nooo youre crying ;_;
.....i feel like i should keep that username of yours
+arxiSigma Yeah that name tho.
n!tromy We’re both crying T^T
YES IM CRYGN
Just watched the animation and literally cried my eyes out and dont cry much.When will human greed end?My heart pains me so much right now.Bravo to Denny for the music and Toniko for this beautiful animation
in our life....
hold on tight....
my pup....
through this life of ours...
For those who put thumbs down.... shame on you. This music portrays love. Loss. Not only does it tell the story but also it gives strong emotion. I love it, and this deserves more likes
This is absolutely beautiful. Brings me to tears every time.
It's such a sad video but very sweet music
the saddest part of the whole thing is when she nearly dies, she howls the song to her pup thinking they're still alive, it made me cry so hard
I'm not really that sensitive but I'm not cruel hearted either..
I love the audio and the visuals remind me of the old Disney movies, the tambourine gives it such a nice winter-y feel. The piano also adds to the feels, as does the violin.
Thank you for this wonderful lullaby.
Intro
Vocals/humming
Intrumental
0:48
Where the Moon rests on the Moor's
Your home awaits
You were free to roam and play
1:00
Until one unfeteful day
When men with guns came to attack
The young, the old, the helpless too
Hide your innocent young
And let us set you free
But first you must run
And shed many tears
Dear beautiful Wolves
We are sorry about what happened to you
You must not cry
We are here for you
For now and for always
We recognise our wrong
We strike our evil ways
I cry for you all
2:28
*Howling*
I cried like a BABY when I saw wolfsong.Like,I was gasping for air and crying and yelling out-WHYYYY?!?!?!.It was so sad!! Q_Q
I think your music is amazing since I was playing a videogame called "Stickwar" soo many years ago.
Epic and amazing music, I wonder how cool would you be in person!!
Thanks a bunch, I remember that game too well! They actually never asked for my permission to use that track, but I guess I don't mind! And I'm fairly dorky actually, not really taking myself overly serious! (:
I still remember when you uploaded the movie set a month or two back with music playing in the background. I just shed tears for minutes.
Me: I'm not crying your crying....
Also me: oh shut up everyone is absolutely sobbing
The music of this short movie is just wonderful and heartbreaking. I have the album that it features in, The First Five Years, and never has it failed to move me so deeply or make me sob. I love the animation, which is strange because it, too, makes me weep. The only thing I would ask is why is the extended piano not on the album? It adds to the sombre, emotional side of things, and I would love to learn to play that on my own keyboard. Bravo to the composer, for it is truly a wonderful achievement to make music that so deeply moves so many people.
This song made me cry😭
Oh, man! I watched the original and seeing this brings back so many tears!!!
This would be perfect in an adventure game. Beautiful!
You're just too good man, I've been binge listening to your songs! I love you, man. You're a genius
This is actually so peaceful and comforting. I love it
+m o m o c h i Kpop everwhere XD
;v; im a huge koreaboo cant help it
Hahaha It's okay :D I'm in it too :P
I could tell from your username xD
hahahaha yes indeed XD
This melody is so beautiful. It makes me cry every time.
Welp here i am crying again......... *flashbacks from the animation* 😭😭😭
Hit me right in the heart
......no seriously. Its almost like an entirely new world was formed inside me as this song kept going.
To all the people saying that humans are bad, stop it.. The majority would never kill animals on purpose unless its really needed for their survival.
And remember; There are also humans that save animals who have been locked away and give them happy lives.
We cant do anything about other's motives, but we can make the world a better place ourselves when we help where we can, even if its just a small thing.
Have a nice day whoever reads this.
Even just the music is enough to make me cry...
The animation never fails to make me cry either. I feel sad but at the same time happy because the two can be together again
I truly love this piece of music. Its stirring, sad, and sweet all at the same time. I remember listening to this while finishing a chapter of a book I was working on and the mood fit perfectly. Great music. The download link isn't working though.
This is so heart-touching...
I'm crying...
I cried when i saw this video, and this music is so touching. Thank you!
A stunning masterpiece.
Thank you, Denny.
Even if this is only the music, I cry everytime I remember that poor mother who just want to take his cub back ... and that human who can get over his pride to give it to her. That's simply horrible. The human race is the most horrible on this planet ...
I hate humans including me
+Wolfy The Wolf same Wolfs should not be hunted!!
The humans are monsters they dont care about our planet and they just distroy it and killing it with the animals but not every human tho...
+Raven-NightFury-Howl I was wondering if I was the only one who thought like that!
I agree with you
Mr. Schneidemesser, I spent my entire life listening to a great variety of music. One of my favorite composers when I was a child was James Horner. When I would see his name attached to a movie, I would go and see the movie just to hear whatever masterpiece he had created for it. I never thought that I would hear anything as grand, or as beautiful as his work after his death in 2015. Then I came across your work. I watched the animation to Wolfsong many years ago, but never got a chance to thoroughly appreciate the music until now. I once again felt every wave of emotion and all of the wonderful sensations that I had felt with Horner's work. I hope this won't be the last time. Your talent is extraordinary. Please, don't let it go to waste. See you at the movies Mr. Schneidemesser.
Oh, and thank you.
I can't bear to watch the short it's so upsetting.
Well ... just had my heart ripped out of my chest and stomped on multiple times. This song always makes me cry, especially after watching the video. That's all I can picture while this plays.
I've seen this short film, but I never looked into the music. Recently I saw the Fox Fires short film and had to look for the music, I had no idea you were the same composer for both! You really are amazing, I could certainly compare you to Hans Zimmer! Though in your own way, you make very mystifying music. Very emotional. I'll stick around here for a while.
Just the music on high volume and the pictures got me crying. Even after watching it 50 times.
sorry to ask but the piano-part was so beautiful. Do you have the notes somewhere? I wish to play your beautiful music.. it's really. really beautiful
YA same here I really want the sheet music PLEASE I WOULD LOVE TO LEARN TO PLAY IT! It would be difficult to try to do it by ear. Especially because I want to do it on piano and it's not all piano.
I'm making orchestra sheet music for it right now, but no piano sorry.
God damn it, even when it's just the music without the animation I still can't stop the tears from falling...
The animation kills me every time to see humans kill these animals for sport. For food I am fine but to show them off saying I killed a living thing for fun with no reason. It pains me to see that the world is like this though. You may want to make them feel ashamed but most are stuck in their ways or simply like doing it. Also, there are people out there who do care for the animals all around us that some just kill with pleasure. It will not be easy to change and I doubt we would be able to change soon. Say the global warming, no matter how hard some people try, it doesn't stop. Sea pollution. It is still happening people feel that the sea is just a big trash-can. Actually it is not. It is filled with beautiful creatures that only know how to survive. They do not know that plastic is not good or waste can carry disease. Even though there are animals that have a bad reputation, they are just doing what they know. The world has changed over the years. A lot. I wish it would suddenly vanish, but it won't.
Baby_Owl
That's Called Poaching I hate it
Actually, poaching is hunting animals without the required permits and/or out of season. What your thinking of is just called sport hunting, and some of it is ethical, although many of the ones who end up on youtube are not.
Baby_owl Maybe there are some people wich do that
but you dont
maybe you are only one
And you feel powerless
But you are not
You are a bigote miracle
You are te biggest miracle on the World
You got the power to make everything that you want
And that is something that you will never loss
Even if it looks impossible
Even if it looks like there is no chance...
Just believe in yourself
Believe in what you can do
You can do everything that you want, because you got the greatest power in your hands
You got the power of decisión.
Now you know the the truth
Or maybe not,.who knows?
The best that you can do is to believe, as i believe in yourself
Now go
Be free
same.... i love animals........
I like Wolves .. they are my Soul
It's beautiful,the animation I've seen and it made me cry.
I've seen the animation and its so sad that I cried
thats right
A whole lot of you made wickedly awesome lyrics. They made me cry. 😢
I am crying
I had this playing from a playlist and as I listened to this I suddenly started to weep. I didn't recall how sad this was.
I am therian, the animation made me cry harder than I ever have before, humans are monsters and wolves do nothing to deserve such horrible things. 🐺❤
Timber The Wolf they dont deserve do die the only time they attack is when they are trying to defend their young and proctecting themselves from harm i refuse to ever harm a wolf ever in my life i know when to back away from a wolf and wolves are probably one of the most beautiful creatures out there in the world i dont care what poacher think i qonder how they would like it if they were hunted for sport they probably just beg for mercy to live
This song reminds me when my dog died and how amazing he was ! This song keeped on playing when I remembered him and it still does !...
Прекрасно,просто прекрасно.)
I was watching the animation and I was thinking that the music was so beautiful! I wasn't surprise at all that you were the composer! great work!
*When someone wants a apocalypse to happen, I say, we're already in one.*
the animation and music never fails to make me cry. Its so beautiful
I made lyrics to this song at 2:48 through 2:30
(Im not good at writing lyrics ok lol)
Little puppy..
Wipe those tears away...
Mother is here...
You will be safe...
I think it sounds pretty cool...! :D
Lovely Mei! I really like them, well done! :)
Im with you...
All the long way...
In our life....
Moa Bergstrand hold on tight... my love... through this life that we call ours...
Sounds good to me
Made me cry buckets.... well done to you as well composer!!!
~ My Wolf Song ~
Never fear
I'll always he here
No matter how far I may be
ill be near, cant you see?
Your whimpers frighten me
the cries are as they may be
Your eyes glow with fright
I cant help but wonder what might
I want you safe
I want you in a cave
Where we can be together, warm
while we are in this form
others will come
more will go
The world isn't made for you
but it isn't made for me too
Ill protect you with all my strength
I would protect you from the ones who crave
God made us with joy
not knowing that his other children used us as toys
one way or another we are broken
but we're also mistooken
until then, we follow the light of the moon
waiting until we die soon.
when that happens we'll be high up in the sky
playing with one another, realizing we were never a lie.
~ End ~
this was beautiful, it felt like a graceful ride of emotions 😭😊
me pongo a llorar con esa melodia
y más todavia con la video reacción
Hey there, i would really like to learn to play this song on piano... so i would be so grateful if someone gives me the music sheet...
Just for private use, I really really want to learn it...
This music is so sad and beautiful ;0; Thank you so much for putting this up and allowing people to download it :)
What kind of monster would shoot a wolf. Wolves have feelings to they want to protect there pack from danger it’s the saddest thing when a miss understood Creature like the wolf gets shot. People think wolves are deadly monsters but they have a different side to them. Which is that wolves are very peaceful,Sweet,loving,kind,
beautiful,miss understood and protective creatures wolves don’t want to hurt anyone they just need there space but once they start seeing you as a friend and not as a threat they will start trusting you and when they do leave them alone because if you threaten them you will lose there trust so please don’t hunt wolves. I think hunting wolves should be illegal like and comment if you agree.
I mean some people are only hunting for the sake of their survival, not for some show-off.
Other animals too
I encourage you to watch Brother Bear
@@Anuyushi I have already seen it and this comment was from two years ago but ya brother bear is a good movie I love it
And once again...my heart is shattered and I broke into tears....AND ONLY LISTENING THE MUSIC!!!
It... Hurts so sad but I really loved the music thank you ,>
I'm trying to figure out what the T. stands for in your name. o.o
Denny Schneidemesser
It stands for Tiger =^^=
Chibi Kitty Kotetsu T. Neko Inu X2.
Oh, well that certainly solves the mystery! :)
Denny Schneidemesser
You're welcome ^^ ( laughs )
this was so sad, the animation made me cry so much, even after watching it like 20 times I still cry everytime.
Beautiful song…anyway, I thought it is worth mentioning that most hunters are not like the ones portrayed in this animation. I come from a family of hunters, and believe me, no one cares about deer, turkeys or any animals more than we do. Yes, we *do* kill them, but we don’t just mount the horns and sell the skin. We eat them so their body doesn’t go to waste. We also take care of the deer on properties we hunt at, like filling special feeders to make them more healthy. And we most definitely do not hunt them until extinction, in fact we make the populations healthier by occasionally killing an animal. That way there is no risk of overpopulation, where there are too many deer and not enough food. I hope I have changed your opinion of hunters, or at least shown that we are not the evil murderers people think we are.
Simplemente me encantó *-*
No puedo parar de oírla
This song inspired me to write my own song
Lay down a rest dear,amoung your bed of leaves.Drift off to sleep dear,your fears will appease.The terrors may frighten you,causing you to fret and fright.But on the trail of fear is,the road to moonlight
Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight,Lu-lu-lay
Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight, Lu-lu-lay
Let the moon guide you to your rest.let the stars guide you into your quest.Where you can marvel at the world in beauty and awe,where flowers and pearls grow above your head and paws.
Moonlight,moonlight,moonlight, Lu-lu-lay
Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight Lu-lu-lay
Moonlight,moonlight, moonlight Lu-lu-laaaaaay.
I've seen this video so many times and it always makes me cry. I love it so much.
If someone can get the notes and keys for piano version out that be great. I wanna try it.. like for irl and on a virtual one. keyboard..but This warms my heart everytime
I think i started the dehydratation progress of so many times i already cried for this music...
I would love to have the sheet music for this song
You need to put this on iTunes so I can buy it! I love the song!
I wish someone can release its official lyrics..
+Alexander Tan "Hoo-ooo-ooo-hoo, Hoo-ooo-ooo-hoo, Hoo-ooo-ooo-hoo, Hoo-ooo-ooo-hoo"
+Denny Schneidemesser
Beautiful.
+Denny Schneidemesser *slow clap* so deep and emotional...
+Denny Schneidemesser finally I found the "lyrics" slow clap
Absolutely glorious.
God this short made me sad. The puppy and the mom playing together in the afterlife doesn't help make it any less sad.
