- Been a while since I did anything Critical Role related huh? Writing this really helped me get out of a creative block, so I'm hoping to start being more active on here soon!

omg, the "I'll be your boatman, your reaper / I'll be yours but you can't keep her" line is sheer perfection. It hits so hard.
Extremely!
I was done. Tears everywhere.
That one got me crying the office, dammit
Laura and Liam are gonna lose their MINDS when they hear this. AMAZING.
@Kristen Brown I mean it has only been a couple days, I didn’t catch todays stream but maybe
They have seen this....

@Kristen Brown did they? Have they reacted anywhere?

I always like to imagine that your songs are sung by a traveling musician, in some tavern somewhere in Exandria, to a bunch of eager to listen and curious folk.
Legit, CR should canonize this, and make you a character that pops-up periodically.
I like to think of it like the suburban guy in Stargate who saw a good portion of the series go down through the communication stone.
The guy woke his wife up in the middle of the night crying when Daniel Jackson died, and since she thought the SG-1 team were just her husband's delusions she got him admitted to psychiatric care.
While Jack O'Neill saw the dudes suburban life through the stone and just thought he was daydreaming about having a boring normal life.
Imagine that sort of link, but the guy's a bard and travels the land singing the praises of a group of adventurers he can rarely ever catch up with.
My paladin is actually doing this exact thing.
My DM okayed me singing these to help the players get engaged and fill into their characters.
also just fun since they always like my singing voice
"I'll be your boatman, your reaper... I'll be yours but you can't keep her."
Wow, just wow, this song is just absolutely incredible. I can just feel this is what’s going through Vax’s mind while pleading to the Matron in the tomb
They couldn’t have gotten it anymore spot on, it’s just that good! I’m surprised that this is not official yet
I have a sister who passed away a few years ago. She is far away from me now and yet at the same time I keep her close listening to the songs she loved. It's my thread of fate that keeps me connected to her.
I know if she was still here I would have made her sit down and watch all the episodes of The Legend of Vox Machina with me and that she would have loved this song. Thank you for making it and curse you for making me cry at work! :D
It is truly a masterpiece. You should be PROUD. May the Matron of Raven's be Ever in Your Favor.
I’m so happy my song could somehow help honor the memory of her ❤
As an older brother who would stop at nothing for his sister, I can't help but relate to Vax and Vex's relationship. You managed to break me yet again, Chase.
So....anybody else want Vox Machina the musical now? This is incredible.
They did a Hamilton parody years ago
RIGGGGHHHHTT AAAAAAA
@@michaelliggett1622 It was a fan project, so not official but ye, it was a good one.
@@collectorofmyst2107funfact the fan project was acknowledged by the cast on stream they enjoyed it
I could see it being a thing😊
I'd love Vexahlia's side of this song too, and then for Liam and Laura to duet.
Thank you, this is great and hits the heartstrings. I hope they get to hear this.
Imagine if Vex’s side was made with the same tempo and scale so that if both songs were to be played at the same time then it would sound like they are doing a duet
That would be so incredible! Would really pull at the heartstrings
Get Lilli Furfaro to play Vex's part lmao
I made a quick modification of the lyrics to Vex’s perspective(I’m rusty on the lore so I forgot if Vex was aware of the raven matriarch but I’ll hand wave a hc that she felt it)
It’s more of her telling Vax not to do it and just move on
Vex’s version:
Your soul and mine
They’re one and the same
Split one in twain and we both feel the pain
The sins of one father run red in our veins
Through darkness and hunger, I remained
But your heart no more beats in tandem with mine
Are you waiting for the wink and the witty one liner
For me to say i got you and hit you with a smile
But the hole in my chest says you’ll be waiting for a while
Don’t be her boatman, her reaper
Don’t be hers, let her be my keeper
Lay me down on a bed of raven’s feathers
Dear Brother, swear to me
You won’t go, never follow me
Though I am far, don’t weep
I am not gone
Accept my death
Don’t pick up the crown
Just leave my body asleep on this ground
Don’t give her your soul, let mine stay laid down
In this tomb I wish had never been found
She wants a champion
But don’t look back
Don’t be her boatman, her reaper
Don’t be hers, let her be my keeper
Lay me down on a bed of raven’s feathers
Dear Brother, swear to me
You won’t go, never follow me
Though I am far, don’t weep
I am not gone
There’s no price too steep to pay
To let you keep your life
Losing you is more than I could bear
So swear
Dear Brother, swear to me
You won’t go, never follow me
Though I am far, don’t weep
I am not gone
@@error-datalost7586 This was lovely.
Good news, this song is now out on Spotify! Listen to it here: open.spotify.com/track/6MSXydQkO6pHSvs6Zt9NCM?si=920iWhlZSUKyF6zhTEJEng
Will it be on Deezer too? I'd love to have it in my playlist !
@@F2214_ It should! It usually takes a bit longer to make it to Deezer and other streaming services than Spotify and Apple Music, but it’ll be there eventually haha
I don’t know how you did it, but each time the lyrics reference vex, even just saying “her”, I can just feel so much tenderness, love, and devotion. And something about the lines “you want a champion/I want her back” and “I’ll be your boatman, your reaper/I’ll be yours but you can’t keep her” just calls into the depths of Vax’s desperation and determination in a way I don’t even know how to describe. This song is just… magical. Are you sure you’re not a bard?
"Lay me down on a bed of raven's feathers"
I can't. Absolutely gorgeous
"Don't you even dare."
Gods the build up, the epic feeling of it! The “I’ll be yours but you can keep her” it’s perfect
This might be one of my favorites of yours
' I'll be your boatman, your reaper... I'll be yours but you can't keep her' Lives rent free in my head 24/7
This is impeccable. Brings a whole new angle to Vax and really plays into his determination to get Vex back. I love it
Ok fine TH-cam I'll watch it
EDIT: I hate it when TH-cam's right...
For anyone who wants to sing there soul out
Her soul and mine
They're one in the same
Split one in twain and we both feel the pain
The sins of one father run red in our veins
Through darkness and hunger, she remained
But her heart no more beats in tandem with mine
And I’m waiting for the wink, and the witty one-liner
For her to say she got me and hit me with a smile
But the hole in my chest says I'll be waiting for a while
I'll be your boatman, your reapеr
I’ll be yours, but you can't keep her
Lay me down on a bеd of raven's feathers
Dear sister, swear to me
You'll stay close, never out of reach
(Oh-oh-oh)
Do not go far from me
Until I'm gone
Mantle of death
Black-feathered crown
Lift up this body asleep on the ground
A soul for a soul, let mine be laid down
In this tomb I wish had never been found
You want (You want) a champion (A champion)
I want her back
So I'll be your boatman, your reaper
I'll be yours but you can't keep her
Lay me down on a bed of raven’s feathers
Dear sisters, swear to me
You’ll stay close, never out of reach
(Oh-oh-oh)
Do not go far from me
Until I'm gone
There’s no price too steep to pay
To bring you back to life
Losing you is more than I could bear
So swear
Dear sister, swear to me
You'll stay close, never out of reach
Do not go far from me
Until I'm gone
Someone pin this plz
Second on the pin suggestion
Sir..sir! Your voice, these lyrics. Holy crap. Thank you for sharing your gift with all us Critters
What is a Critter?
Who put these tears on my pillow?!
But seriously, this song has been a constant daily listen since its release. It's absolutely gorgeous.
I saw this come up on my feed and was like "I'mma cry if I click that, aren't I...?"
This was a correct assumption.
The pure and raw emotion at the end of this song, the stuttering start when the tempo picks up, the breathing affect making it sound like your singing with every bit of air, the desperation, utterly immaculate and you've produced yet another banger
This now feels REAL relevant ...
Tonight episode.. Was fire...
You're definitely my go-to when it comes to CR fan songs. They make a daily appearance in my life. Thanks for filling my ears with song, my mind with adventure and my heart with emotion. I believe it brings comfort in a world that's ever hunting and sometimes unforgiving. Keep up the great work! Can't wait for the next one!
I subscribed when I heard Mollymauk's Reprise for the first time, and your songs have never disappointed. Your voice is beautiful, and your lyrics flow naturally and hit very deep. Amazing work, your songs are always a pleasure to listen to, whether they be covers or originals.
I can listen to Mollymauk's Reprise over and over, never gets old
I'm a critter since last December. Maaan, this community is an absolute treasure! The quality of the CR related artworks are stunning. Your songs are amazing, Scanlan would be jealous for sure. 😂♥️
What a cool character I hope nothing bad happens to him
This is really a masterpiece and it fits the twins, especially Vax so well.
This is brilliant,
I'd love to hear one of Percy pls.
Wow, today my youtube recommendations sure delivered.
Perfect, couldn't explain it any other way. I love how you rhymed reaper with keep her
Excuse me, I have to go recommend this to everyone for the rest of my life
Man I really hope you can reach your voice to the main cast and they hire you for the animation shows. Truly amazing songs. They deserve to be heard by millions🤙
The goosebumps I got from this will never be beaten holy shit this is so beautiful
Certified banger. Perfectly captures Vax in this critical moment.
This is one of the best fan so I have every seen you encapsulate the desperation of Vax between your voice and lyrics so well. I hope for nothing more than for this to be seen by more people!
I don't cry very often but this song made me bawl. I didn't know about this channel beforehand but sure as crap am now subscribed.
Yes sure, why not, make me cry again! About this damn rogue and the twins in general... This is AMAZING Chase! I've missed your songs so muchhh just wow!
Wow! This is a beautiful song! I particularly like “lay me down on a bed of raven’s feathers.”
Man, it's 1am and I'm crying all over again like I was when I first came across him sacrificing himself and, despite knowing it, when it was done in the show. This is amazing. I love it and you did a phenomenal job
I would like a whole musical like this 😭
Hell yeah. A new Chase Noteworthy song!
Holy ravens feather
Goosebumps all over my arms, you have done it again.......
Many thanks
This was so good!!! There aren’t enough CR fan songs, and your voice brought the emotion in this one to life! Amazing job!!
The amount of times I’ve listened to this song today… Bravo, good sir 👏👏
The only reason I haven’t sent this to everyone I know is that I don’t want to spoil people that haven’t seen the show yet.
I am MESMERIZED by the lyrics. I feel like I'm falling in love with the characters even more just from listening to this.
Incredibly well done! 👏👏
When you are in a deep dive of character creation, and ask yourself how this one would sound as this song plays. It was like the Heavens hand delivered your perfection to me as an answer to my unspoken prayer. Thank you for your existence and magical talents. ❤😊 I will certainly be a fan from here on out.
The level of angst I needed fr
I love it!
Ok I'll be listening to this on repeat! Having just watched both seasons I can feel Vax's pain through these lyrics- this is so beautiful and sad I love it
God damn. The lyrics are so beautiful and I love the smoothly sung dread in the Chase's voice!
You will never fail to give me goosebumps. Incredible! I love everything you make but this might be the best one. The emotion in your voice, the music and the lyrics. Damn, dude. Damn.
You have a Downright angelic voice, you’ve also added a depth that I believe only song could’ve done for the story
I will never stop being amazed by your talent for storytelling. It is one thing to tell a story through the lyrics but also doing it between the notes... mindblowing.
I love that episode, both in the show and episode and I can really see how you translated their words and the scenes into lyrics. Even the things they didn't say out loud.. I can also basically feel the desperation, pain and pleading you put into the last chorus. This song sounds so soft, yet so helpless and painfull. You did amazing!
I was gonna wait until I was ready to cry, but heck I didn't want to wait anymore, this was BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLLL
man i cant be the only one that got shivers runing down my spine from this. congrats on this fenominal song man!!!
Flawless
This is awesome
This had me in tears within the first minute. So beautifully sorrowful, and the title is perfect 👌🖤
I could seriously see this being used as the end credits of that particular LoVM episode. I’ve been following you for a long while but damn, this song especially blew me away, 15/10
This is absolutely beautiful and fits so well with the show. It made me cry hearing this.
Goosebumps...
Chills, literal chills
Knowing what happens with Vax in the original campaign, this song is both beautiful and heartbreaking
what happens to her ?
@@janteo1 VAX is the brother. Spoiler, he dies. Becomes the knight of the Raven Queen. Go watch Campaign 1
wait why am i crying THIS IS SO GOOD
I listened to this yesterday when I woke up and I wanted to say thank you for making me cry!! How you capture each charcter and their feeling with every song is astounding!!
was pretty siked when I saw this pop up. Something that helped me lately was hearing Can she Excuse my wrongs. Some melodies from a different century really got me out of a loop. This sounds great.
WAIT I MISSED THIS ONE OH MY GOD I'm such a sucker for rhymes that occur halfway through a phrase or word, so I love the rhyming of "mine" and "one-liner"
Wow, Just wow. You have done it again.
This is so beautiful! Amazing work! You perfectly captured the emotions of what was going on and of Vax.
Chills! 😭 The amount of talent and heart you put into your songs is immense. Thank you for making them!
Did you have to go and join Liam/Laura with playing on my heartstrings...? 😭
This is the first song I've heard of yours, and it is so tragic and beautiful, I'll be subscribing right away. Can't wait to hear your other CR gems. Thanks for making my day- I listened to this with arms covered in goosebumps.
How is a song this good, every part is perfect
Is anyone else just listening to this on repeat?
Yo I'm not even lying this may legit the best song I may have ever heard. How in this world did you create this incredible song
Just have to say this song just gives me chills, absolutely beautiful and a masterful voice! knowing the characters too just makes this song so impactful.
Beautiful
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I love your music, and this is absolutely amazing and fits Vax so well!!! I hope Liam and Laura hear this song, thy are gonna love it!!!!
Holy crap, I've got chills, I really hope they see this.
Absolute 🔥 great job
My Angel who makes me laugh and cry all at the same time more times than I can count. Proud is not a strong enough word.
Giving me chills!
What an awesome video to wake up to! (Ignore how late it is). This is so freaking epic! I need to catch up on the show ahhhh
Spoiler alert I guess? Lol
Also I absolutely am judging you for waking up at noon
@@ChaseNoseworthy 😭😭😭
Barely a minute in and I’m in tears
Would be a nice touch Matt played something like this in a tavern, like a song that has passed through Exandria.
Amazing job! You perfectly captured the emotions of the situation and gave me chills
This is mind blowing. This song is that of a bard, a thousand years later, telling the legend of the Matron’s champion Vax’ildan who dedicated his being to her service in exchange for his sister’s life. Their love lives on.
Trying so hard not to cry. Failing miserably. This is the most passionate and talented fandom. Period!
I watch the new show season 2 and omg this song make me cry more than the show it is just amazing I hope you go far with your work this is what inspires me to make a song of my own.
I have this on repeat in my head 😢
So awesome that Critical Role not only inspire people to play but also served as inspiration for so many creative critters
First time finding your content. Wow. Just wow.
That's so beautiful
I cried, that is all. One of the most poignant moments in Critical Role history.
This is breathtaking.
Sir! Your VOICE! OH MY GOODNESS. Chills. The words. The voice. Phenomenal
Man you didn't have to make me cry. Very well done sir. Amazing.
Oh my gosh, I'm not one to listen to fan songs often but holy crap am i glad i listened to this. Legit goosebumps. Absolutely incredible work!
The things that come out of this fandom. I swear. ❤️❤️❤️
Oh my gosh this whole thing. It has me crying! This is literally them. Great job!
