🟢 Here is the reaction for Finale: th-cam.com/video/WWUw03JLkBo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=06KNHrYsra83fOP4
There have been a plethora of comments constructed around "you should have done this with Finale!😒🔊"
YES! I am very very aware they go together and it was part of the plan to do the reactions in close proximity as the orginal suggestion thread for this video brought that up.
I dont do multi song videos except for Anime related.
"You should have" reads funky to me as it indicates that the efforts put into creating this free content is wasted or somehow incorrect.
That is not where I put value so if you want additional content, phrase it differently.
Thanks!
Don't mind those comments too much! Undertale, especially the fanon stuff, is very highly saturated with kids and immature people that are very annoying to interact with in general. Glad you still enjoy these pieces though and thanks for the reactions and breakdown Tony!
@NotSomeJustinWithoutAMoustache yeah, the community is very toxic and hard to deal with.
@@rimuruborges7785 The weirder parts of the community are for sure, but that's true with any weird part of a community that gets big enough.
People saying "you should have" in the context of listening to two songs in one video isn't them saying you're doing it wrong, at least most of the time. It's mainly because either one song follows into another, giving you a completely new dynamic to it... or there's something similar with the two. like the amount of leitmotifs you heard in this one track alone.
If you want an example of what I mean, listen to the two TOOL songs "Parabol" and Parabola" but listen to Parabola first, then listen to the two at once. (they're directly next to each other on the album Lateralus). You'll notice that without the softer lead up of the first track, the second track seems quite basic. (certainly complex still though)
I hope this doesn't come across as rude or anything negative, i'm just trying to give an explanation as to, potentially, why people use that phrasing.
This is definitely one of those video game tacks where the context of where it fits in the game matters. But even on its own this is great.
Having no context is what makes surface level music analysis effective. Context of the story or game only encourgares someone to think a certain way and gets in the way of what the music iteslf contains. In reality i should prob stream this game at some point and just experience the gameplay.
@@DrumRollTonyReacts If it's feasible to play the game off-stream (but recording for later uploads) that might be better. Stream chat may occasionally spoil, after all.
@@Stratelier Not a bad idea
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I think a lot of people would love to see this, if it was something you'd enjoy
@@Stratelier Hard agree. In fact, only uploading after finishing a playthrough might be the best way to stay spoiler free
As a non percussionist, I agree that Your Best Nightmare has some nice percussion.

It's so funny that laugh is actually part of the music and not individual sound effect
Flowey's laugh is so iconic in this song
Im popular
Toby makes sound effects a part of the soundtrack 🗿
It is apart of the game flowey laughs earlier on in a higher pitch
Exactly. Different pitch, therefore different sfx.
Also so funny that you mention synesthesia with the different leitmotifs in this song, every time you hear one of these deviations, it plays for the specific soul you’re saving (the person you fight in this song has 6 souls as you can tell by the 6 different deviations) and each soul is a different color which in my opinion dictates the kinda color I hear for that part :)
13:38 - Orange and *YELLOW* , you say?
🌻
The souls are speaking to him💀💀💀
Holy crap
He's talking about the green one though.
@@victzegopterix2 kindness soul... you mean?
Same...thing-?@@sanstheskeleton71
wow, that's me in the thumbnail!! 😲 im so glad you enjoyed it, by far one of my fave tracks too!
You're famous
Congratulations 😁
"There all family they just went in different directions" just described the entire royal family without knowing the story of the royal family.
Great vid! Really hoped it was a "Your best nightmare + Finale" version though. "Finale" is a direct continuation to this piece and, well, a great finale to it :)
Finale is up now.
I'll try to summarize the context this plays in the best I can because knowing really adds to it.
Incase you haven't seen gameplay of Undertale, the combat system for most of the game plays as a turn based RPG, and after you use your turn you get given control over a heart floating in a box in 2D space and you have to move it around dodging bullets to avoid taking damage until you can have your turn again. It's what the cool kids call "bullet hell". Being a turn based game the emphasis is on taking the time to figure out how to approach situations, with your 2 win conditions being either killing the enemy, or finding a way to deescalate the situation and sparing them (or just running lol).
However the fight that this plays for, the final boss of the neutral route, plays wildly differently. Instead of having it be turn based you are simply CONSTANTLY in the phase where you control the heart against the boss who is a morbid murderous psychopathic monster granted Godlike powers to warp reality, which they obtained by consuming powerful human souls. Periodically it will shift to a different style of attacking that is a little less ridiculous than the initial stage, and if you survive it one of the souls in them will reach out and change the bullets to give you health back until the monster takes back control and continues their assault. The calm respite that gaining your turn back gives you does not exist in this fight, it's just a constant struggle to keep yourself alive and it's so hectic and brutal.
It's a shame that you weren't told to include the track "Finale" in this reaction, as Your Best Nightmare leads directly into it during a turning point in the fight where the souls inside the monster revolt and you gain the upper hand. It's a really epic moment where for the first time in the fight you can finally contend with them and it makes the fight SO memorable. Either way this track is insane it was cool to see you react to it 👍
Thx for the info. I could do finale next
@@DrumRollTonyReacts while writing this I thought that Finale would probably make for too short a video but then I checked and the track is nearly 2 minutes on its own so you could still definently check it out! I'd be down to see that
@@DrumRollTonyReactsfinale is one of my favorite tracks on the undertale ost. Its so good
@@gatr2897 Honestly, Finale was in the suggestion of the comment that I'd featured at the start of this video and thumbnail. Lol so, it's a bit of a plan to recapitulate this one and how it potentially ties into Finale 👀
@@DrumRollTonyReacts niceee
I think this one sits safely in my favorite Undertale OST as far as theme and development goes! 🤘
TheBradZone gave us a good OST suggestion!
Hopes and Dreams + SAVE the world is definitely my favorite piece of music from Undertale and games in general. I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about it
There is an official remix of Megalovania in Super Smash Bros. by the creator of Undertale. I think you will like it if you do a reaction to it.
You should listen to finale it plays right after this song in the bossfight
You should watch the fight to understand whats happening
Ah, too bad, Finale wasn't included with this one, that and this one works together.
13:21 What you're describing here sounds like synesthesia, where you associate specific sounds-- in this case the NES type of chord sounds-- with a different sense, in this case colors. Really interesting topic and I'm curious as to what other associations you make with specific sounds or chords. Awesome video!
I see shapes and colors with all sound. It's just more dominant with music and instrument groups. It's a mild case of synthesia
Oh yeah, this song is definitely doing something "different than the norm." It's made to overwhelm your senses. When I first played this part, I got so lightheaded I was afraid I'd pass out. ^^
what I like about this channel is that unlike many Reaction Channels, this one adds so much value on top of the content he uses as the topic of his videos.
we are here for the reaction, not for the music itself.
Yeah, this theme plays in pretty unusual moment of story. All the calls and responses makes even more sense where they occur in game. It would be cool to see your playthrough of this game someday, all the music themes fits so good in context in which they were used.
Umm actually... it's spelt occur. 🤓☝
I regret that
@@Epic_ethee579 thanks pal 👍
I love how this track sounds like a song that was corrupted, like it should sound beutiful but its getting controlled by a bigger and darker force
I also love how in some parts you can even hear a heartbeat, and how some parts of the music seem like its mocking you, for example, justice's part sounds like flowey is mocking you for playing the game and not fighting him head on
This theme is just chaos because the boss is just a beast, really.
That said, if I can recommend a track from this game, Another Medium really hits the spot for me.
1:31 "The laugth is weird.."
Heard that flowey ? You weirdo !
Fun thing I noticed,
If you don't know, in this section of the game, you have 6 souls to get help from.
The beat starts as a 6.
I think that the beat is supposed to be lowered by 1 each of the beginning soul helped! 🤯
I’ve never played Undertale (sorry! haha) but you can tell that with this song, shit is going DOWN. Player’s in big trouble here.
This is when you fight the final boss and you've lost all hope. Finale, another song, is when you get help from the other humans and it's more hopeful.
this is a boss fight song in which every time you hear that "alarm" sort of sound and tv static is where you get some breathing room and sort of damage the boss, also the little melody in every "breathing room" part is like the trademark undertale melody which is implemented in a lot of other undertale pieces.
the melody in the soul parts is "your best friend" aka floweys theme
Fun fact: 11:54 is a reference of a Touhou soundtrack called Hartmann's Youkai Girl have the same rhythm. And 12:10 is a reference of another Touhou soundtrack is Bad Apple!! from Touhou 4 and the bass have similiarity notes and rhythm
I thought 12:10 sounded so familiar from somewhere, that makes so much sense
そうなんだ、知りませんでした！
The best part of the Undertale OST is listening in on every leitmotif that connects one part of the game to another
I still love how the song makes you feel absolutely hopeless while trying to beat the boss paired with this song
Pumped for this one, great music!
The statics are mini-sections of the boss Battle. It has the Flowey's battle Melody.
It was really cool to hear about your synthesia! I hope we'll hear more about it!!
The bit where you describe seeing the shape of music sounds a bit like synesthesia. Pretty cool!
Hoping you can play this game someday to truly see how well this music complements the gameplay, while also discovering the other beautiful songs this game has to offer :)
I didn’t know you had synesthesia that’s cool
One of the cool things about music in Undertale and Deltarune is the way that the big songs like this correspond to the visual and gameplay elements on screen. It’s very balletic.
I always prefer blind listens with no context for the first impression, I think it leads to more interesting analysis. But it would be cool to see your thoughts on this song within the context of the game and it’s mechanics too.
How has noone recomended him Drakengard 3's Final Song yet? That's such a unique song with its tempo changes, and the percussion is amazing.
I love how this song and boss make you feel entirely helpless just by twisting everything on its head
I know this is late, and some people have said this already, but yes. A video of the fight itself does in fact help you pick out where each section of the song fits in, and how each section transitions into another. I’m not a music person myself, but I think I said this stuff right.
Oh man! Somehow I was surprised you hadn't been recommended this one before, the percussion is so much fun in this! If you ever get the chance either on here or just on your own time to check it out, the Undertale 5th anniversary concert did a WILD live orchestra version of this. I remember wondering how on earth you go about transposing this to live instruments but it was wicked. So cool to hear about your synesthesia too, keep up the great reactions dude!
I recommend checking out the Touhou OST!
Touhou was a big musical inspiration for Toby Fox, and there's actually several possible references in this track alone, at the start of each little section after the static.
possible references:
3:00 sounds like the intro of Heian Alien from Touhou 12
8:24 sounds slightly like Solar Sect of Mystic Wisdom ~ Nuclear Fusion from Touhou 11
11:53 sounds like a part of Hartmann's Youkai Girl from Touhou 11
12:10 sounds like the start of Bad Apple from Touhou 4
also the main motif of those sections sounds very similar to a part of Loose Rain from Touhou 12.8.
There's a ton of themes in Touhou, but I'd suggest Necrofantasia from Touhou 7 to start (there's better imo but it's a good place to start). I hear Toby even played a piano rendition of Necrofantasia for his church while he was in high school.
YES ABSOLUTELY. Touhou has so many interesting musical quirks, it's practically its own genre of music; there are plenty of fan-made albums of music meant to emulate Touhou OSTs.
It's a bit of a stretch, but TobyFox helped make music for Homestuck, of which there ARE confirmed Touhou references in ost such as "Heir of Grief" which plays after a song funnily enough named "Oppa Toby Style" as honor to Toby
Nobody recommends *Asgore😢
Sure hope you mean ASGORE because Begentrückung is the intro
@@ganeju2_879id like to see bergentruckung and asgore at one video
I know The Undertale OST uses quarter tones in some tracks, and hearing it now, I think this might be one of them, for that extra crunchy dissonance. (I could be wrong though, I don't have absolute pitch.)
Your best nightmare is the definition of "Why do i hear boss music" it is literally THE boss music ever
i recommend checking out ‘ASGORE’
there isn’t a single bad song on this soundtrack unless it’s on purpose lol
13:05 fun fact (you might know about it already):
Toby Fox hugely inspired by Earthbound and "Mother" series of games. So, that vibes - made intentional
the coolest thing about this song in my opinion is that the boss it plays in is constantly loading save states, which is represented by the variations and repetitions of the two main motifs. you can even hear at 11:09 that the bass is the same as the first part but it repeats before the second half plays (as well as the melody being the same but in double time).
Idk if you already reacted to 'Hopes and Dreams', if not, the I really suggest it! The soundtrack is tbh my favorite.
Every time the static happens, the in-game fight changes. it's almost become a rhythm game. This whole song is the story of the fight.
Get Ready - Rare Earth(the drum solo specifically), sick percussion
Edit: Added a parenthesis.
Yup, I'm not giving up on Get Ready, despite being a 20 minute song, I can't describe how much I enjoy the percussion and thought it would be great to see you react to it , if you feel like it of course.
Also, I have to say that I love your reaction videos. I like how you briefly analize parts of the songs. Have a great day!
It’s probably a lot harder to pick up on it because your reactions to Undertale tracks are so broken up and you haven’t played the game, but the Undertale soundtrack relies heavily on leitmotifs. Almost every track references segments from other tracks, which is also story-relevant at some points. This is also especially visible in this one because it’s echoing the same motif, but that theme is found throughout the entire soundtrack and it’s super cool to notice like “oh, this is just [insert theme], but it’s metal instead of elevator music”. Super cool reaction tho
This song is messy and its a good thing because it makes it super fun to listen to especially for your first time
I think you should take a listen to BIG SHOT from Deltarune, which is essentially a pseudo-sequel to Undertale
Maybe you would want to check what happened in this fight🤣
Pretty nightmare-ish
Obviously you don’t have to, but if there is any chance that you can I definitely think that it would benefit a lot if you could react to the music with the gameplay because the context of this music helps a TON.
ngl now I see the drum part sounds right out of ULTRAKILL
When you talk about how some segments through you back, Toby Fox, the composer, made Earthbound mods, keeping the original feel of the music.
Also, if you do end up playing the game, I highly recommend you do the true pacifist route, which means spare every enemy you fight and become friends with all bosses
I recommend watching the omega flowey boss fight to understand the static, the laughing, ect.
Good idea, he should watch or play it
i'm glad that you react to this, this soundtrack really unique
but unfortunately this is not the full part, i thought that you ware listen until the final part
well, without context, your best nightmare sure sounds a bit strange lol
that sudden change in rhythm is part of the fight, its from fighting against omega flowey to gaining control of a soul (there are 6 souls and you,the player is the 7th and you need to save them so they help you weaken and eventually kill flowey)
and the souls themes are based on "Your best Friend"(title might be wrong) which is floweys theme in his flower form
I've heard the praises of the Undertale OST for years, but I've never played the game or really heard any of it. The praise is definitely warranted. This was utter chaos made music! Super cool! 😎
The second half of your favorite part, with the descending notes, reminded me of my favorite Tetris music "Type B". That section had such nice old Game Boy vibes.
During the whole song, when it got to the simple cute melody, I got a feeling of "going back in time" to older video game consoles. Like it was losing power, therefore losing fidelity & complexity.....I dunno if that makes sense 😅 It was a really neat effect tho!
If I may suggest something with a similar chaotic drum & bass vibe; you might like Yellow Alert from the Trigun OST th-cam.com/video/loSkhwnr4E4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=InLA83xdheBvvGvz . You reacted positively to Trigun's opening "H.T." (the one with the Led Zeppelin sound🤘🏼), so you might like this one!
i think you should sometimes watch the part of the game where the ost plays in just for context, maybe cut it off the video but i think the added context makes the ost even nicer so def worth checking the boss out cause the song fits perfectly with the gameplay. also, check out megalovania or hopes and dreams
I love your videos, although and from the thumbnail I was expecting… MEGALOVANIA!!! (Associated to that skeleton). And also “Hopes and dreams”! We would really appreciate your professional reaction to those.
The part you said was your favorite very much made me think of music from the Kirby games stylistically
Edit: Of course you noticed and pointed it out ten seconds after I typed this whole thing. I shouldn't have doubted your ears lol
I didn't pick up on it until I got new headphones but in that 2nd "verse", the repeat of the 1st but with the bent synths underneath, there's like a subtle higher pitch tone that switches between the left and right channels just kinda hovering up quietly behind the noise but it's there. I feel like I've begun to notice more of those subtle layers in songs after watching your vids and learning just how to listen to music more thoroughly.
I loved watching this, great work man!
the Megalovania of Smash Bros would be a great analysis.
Believe it or not, the Siivagunner version of this song is unironically even better.
Yea the laugh is definitely weird if you don’t know what the fight is but once you see the fight it makes so much sense same with the tv static sections but once you do it’s probably the most fitting boss theme in all of Undertale up there with hopes and dreams
looking forward for this one!!
the laugh is one of the most important part kk
Wait so which heart's tune was his favorite?
13:38 funny becouse that part was ment to rappresent something orange/yellow in the game lol
whoa! I didn't know you have synesthesia! it's cool to go through your Undertale reactions in a row to see all your reactions; just saw that you uploaded Megalovania today.
Do Premiere videos actually work at giving you more traffic?
I wanted to watch this video 3 days ago but had to close the tab because it was just a Premiere.
Only when I spotted a random Premiere video that I don't care about, I remembered that I wanted to watch this.
Lots of schools of thought about it. I have no real concrete answer.
It's fun to chat with people during the premiere and the system works well within my discord. It's also nice to track analytics stats of how many people showed up for different genres etc.
He might aswell listen to Finale since its a part of the same fight
this song is split by main theme and souls theme, every warning comes with a different soul theme
Man, you definitely should listen to The Outer Wilds music. I mean I really love your reactions and that stuff you'd like. ❤
Honestly if dug this, I would also have to suggest the uncut version Marry Me Nightmare!
Also Marry Me Nightmare changes bpm several times throughout the song and I'm interested to see how you'd react to them!
If you liked this I definitely think you should listen to some of the Ultrakill ost. Maybe start with Into The Fire
13:16 look up synesthesia
Yea I have talked about my mild case of it several times in the channel. I didn't even know it was a thing until a psychology professor in college talked about it. I thought everyone had it lol lol😂
@@DrumRollTonyReacts Yeah with subjective experience like that it's very easy to assume they're universal. Like, I have aphantasia (it's like, being unable to form mental image, like I can imagine thing and conceptualize them but it doesn't form as a visual representation in my mind) and I used to think everyone talking about seeing things in their head was purely a metaphor and not an actual thing lmao
5:34 I can't unhear the zelda type melody now, I've been cursed 😩
The really high pitched one was part of finale, please do that one, aswell as one from disbelief papyrus
I think you'd like Underwater Prom Queens from OMORI, it has some crazy drums!
Maybe you could listen to Remedy from Undertale Yellow.
Toby Fox is a musical genius
the start is in 11/4
8:40 dude i said to myself orange/yellow/purple :D
Full of caos
megalo strike back is a good one as well
Dududu duu...
Can you please listen to undertale Spider Dance.
13:46 that's green idk what you're on about
I don't think you understand
I'd like to say that this piece requires context to be understood well, but to be honest, the context might just make it more confusing lol
hello!! heavenly delusion op; innocent arrogance by Bish 🙏
👍
Oh crap my dude has synesthesia. Neat!
Just saying to be careful with Undertale fans. They’re… passionate. And they want to share what they like, so try not to feel obligated to do anything 😅.

How do you tell if a melody goes 1-2-3-4-5-6 instead of 1-2-3-1-2-3?
I presume you are asking about rhythm or time signature and not scale degrees
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I'm gonna be honest I have no idea what those words mean but sometimes I hear you saying
1-2-3-4-5-6 and sometimes I hear you saying 1-2-3-1-2-3 and I just got curious what the differentiating factor is. Like at 1:16.
@@pinbox5814 That specific section I'm referring to the time signature. Think of it as a governing system that dictates how many beats there are per measure.
@@DrumRollTonyReacts Oh, ok.
Hmm... why not? try out " the murder" by katrina130, love your stuff.
Your best nightmare
have you ever heard of KOAN Sound? i'd highly recommend voices of dissent from their newest album
I have not 👀
i've been listening to their music for like 10-11 years now or something, and watching them grow has been really fascinating. The things that really stand out to me is their sound design, composition (which is something that got very noticeably more interesting as time went by), and really enjoyable rhythms. They are extremely dynamic. off of that same album as voices of descent (the album is called led by ancient light) anchorite is also a really cool jam that i think you'd probably get a kick out of. it's a close second to fav for me behind voices of dissent. Both are pretty wild. @@DrumRollTonyReacts
Also wanted to add, that i really dig your channel. It's really cool seeing how open you are to different kinds of music and watching you go through and break down parts or catch and point out interesting things that are sometimes easy to miss is really enjoyable and appreciated man. Dig the content, definitely one of the better react channels here.
Do you have synesthesia?
Mild case. I thought it was normal until I learned what it was from a psychology professor in college
what’s the sound genre called? Liquid bass? i forgot what its called
I think breakcore
Breakcore and Jungle's baby
You should listen to terraria calamity mod music made by DM Dokuro the boss fight themes are bangers
You kinda need context for this, but still amazing video
Well, one could need context for every piece of music ever created...but the point here is to be analytical on the music alone.
Yeah True😅@@DrumRollTonyReacts
@@DrumRollTonyReacts There is a bit of context for like, how it's actually played in the game. Where the more "hard" part is the main boss music that plays during the fight and the more "whimsy out there" music parts (between the statics) are different events that happen during that fight, so you don't hear them as often as you do here and they're associated with a change of scenery which changes the vibe a bit.
And they're triggered by player action so they might play at a different point in the track.
I think it's actually a bit jarring in the soundtrack because of how often it switches, in game it's really tied to gameplay and a lot more reserved with the switches so I think it works a lot better.
