At first, I thought, "Whoa! They got Morgana's VA to sing Last Suprise?"
Then I looked at the name in the title a little closer, and turns out it wasn't "Cassandra Lee Morris", it was "Casey Lee Williams".
This still rocks, tho. I clicked thinking I'd hear Morgana singing, but I got something just as good.
Casey is extremely underrated y'all. She has grown tremendously throughout the years.
which is crazy considering she was already pretty solid when she was like 15 too
Yeah she is taller now
Greatly respect. Also agree to the growth. I loved most of the music from rwby just could not stand the voice. This me likey though.
@@infectious4100 Yeah
@@infectious4100 still is
This is great, the velvet room intro transition in to Last Surprise *chef kiss*
I'm surprised more people don't do that, it works so well, even I thought of it and I'm not a musician (or understand how music works at all XD)
We never saw it coming
And then at 4:50 they end it off with the Velvet Room. Genius XD
The start and end with Hymn of the Soul causes this to loop perfectly, in case anyone else wants to listen to this on repeat like I am now that I discovered it.
Thank you Cross Tag Battle for making Casey Neo's voice actor and allowing her to hang with the Persona 4 Investigation team. Never saw it coming
Isn't she mute?
@@theluckyhooman9665 They gave her some laughing/giggling, and some humming.
No, she doesn't do this in the actual show.
@@Jimmeeehhh Oh okay.
@@Jimmeeehhh she gasps once in vol 3
@@FoxflameGoddess Crazy
god it's been so cool watching Casey grow up over the years. such a talented kid with SUCH a strong voice, hope she gets the recognition she deserves some day!
If she truly wants to grow she has to step outside exclusively making songs for RT because they're holding her back tremendously
@@SirFooplesTheThird I really don't know why she's not doing more outside RWBY cuz this girl is insane. I agree though I hope she continues being the voice of the OST
@@alexv0714 That's honestly why I'm hoping and praying Ok Goodnight pops off
@@thaddeuskyle572 They've been pretty active the past few years. Two albums, some singles here and there, and an EP. Some of their tracks have more than a million plays on Spotify alone, so they must be doing something right!
This is a mix of so many things I love.
Casey just keeps improving! Mason and I own the same superman shirt. David's drumming faces bring me life.
Casey is ICONIC. We said it, no take backs.
@@tournamentarc9510 You heard it here first folks!
Speaking of which, Casey should totally collab with you when the Ruby vs Maka Death Battle inevitably happens
Please get Casey with you for Ruby vs maka
@@KenJacox-zg7rf I'd love to, but that's up to her of course!
keyboard guy is the mvp of this cover for sure!
Fun Fact:
Every glimpse you get of the Drummer's side, the TV behind him is showing Gameplay of Persona 5 Strikers. (This cover was an absolute blessing, thank you)
Ahhh... someone notices my easter egg XD
Wasn't the other TV's thing referencing Persona 4 (i haven't played it but i know that it's related to TV's and probably its static)
@@samugames0 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ No clue what you're looking at homie
@@xtremedreamer7587 Umm, in a tv, there was static and very clearly
@@samugames0 Ohhh, you meant the Organ Solo near the end of the song? It could possible be a reference to Persona 4 since they do enter The Shadow World through a TV
Definitely never saw this coming. One of the best Persona 5 OST covers I’ve ever seen.
Is it just me, or do other people think that a Casey Lee Williams cover of the Neon Genesis theme would be epic?
Well everything she sings is amazing so I don't see how this couldn't be
Dude fuck yes
i love how casey has really become a great musical singer just starting from rwby then red vs blue and then she now has her own band and everything i really love you casey keep on rocking and dont hold back
Casey sounds amazing and best of all: she looks like she's having a TON of fun singing!
I've been going through every Last Surprise cover on TH-cam, and so far this is my favorite. Casey's take is amazing!
I was listening to Ok Good Night, and I saw this was recommended. I had no idea there was a version of this song with Casey on vocals, and you better believe I clicked immediately. This whole arrangement slaps!
I love it. Casey has always brought her all, and I’m glad to see everyone enjoy something so awesome!
I PERSONAly believe this is a great cover. Looking forward to more music in the future!!!
First time I heard Casey was when I watched RWBY for the first time. I was so filled with Euphoria and happiness and now I'm hearing this and it only solidifies that Awesomeness that I've come to love from this band. :D
I literally clicked this video by accident, and now it's part of my playlist. Casey Lee Williams really has vastly leveled up over the years
It's almost scary how good they are.
It took me five listens to realize that you were playing Aria of the Soul at the end - phenomenal. Everything about this is just *chef's kss*
Everyone in this band just gets better as they go and Casey herself has really come far along.
Everyone shredded on this. They all understood the assignment.
And in this episode, we see that Miss Casey Lee Williams continues to own my soul. Everyone else is amazing as well, great job y'all!
Thanks so much for digging this, folks! We had a blast making this. I just wish I noticed the HUGE CREASE IN MY SHIRT when I was filming this lol.
imagine my shock when i find casey lee williams of okay goodnight performing for a persona cover. this is awesome!
That was an excellent rock arrangement of that song, and Casey's vocals just made it perfect. Great job everyone!
Casey Lee Williams as the P6 vocalist would be a match made in heaven
TBH I'd LOVE that, maybe call in OK goodnight to help make the music as a whole
It would be different that Atlus got western singer for the next game. Unfortunately I cant see it happening.
@@Dubbel12 They've done werider
@@CafeLiquerstreams It's atlus, i wouldn't be surprised if they somehow brought Rise into real life and had her do a few songs.
@@Ztrawby That's just called a VROID
It's not just the fact that you got Casey Lee Williams, but the fact that the transitions and harmonies are really well placed. I love this!
My teacher told me that when you're playing music, there should only be one of two things for the audience to see, that you're extremely focused, or that you're having the time of your life, and you guys execute it perfectly.
I am a huge persona fan and i just found this video today. Casey Lee Williams stole this one, what a powerful voice. Grats on the great video, all!
The guitars go crazy. Love everything about this
Been listening all week! 🔥 🔥 🔥
Love seeing Casey branching out. She just keeps getting better!
Passionate people making a great music cover of an already great song, doesn't get any better than that
miss casey lee williams' range... unmatched as always
and her voice has NEVER SOUNDED SMOOTHER
Her and Lollia always blow me away more n more as time goes by.
Nope, there are people out there with a larger range.
@@alexbrooks5676 No shit Sherlock.
@@HeSavesUs
No he is right. Hahaa.
Fricking Aria of the Soul at the end is beautiful!
Robbie!!!!!! I knew I recognized that sick keyboard/hat combo. I fucking love you dude. Between this and Super Soul Bros…you are the fucking best.
Hahaha, thank you! Appreciate it!
Wow... Skilled instrumentalists all around (and that includes the voice -- it IS an instrument after all, Jim, just not as we know it) and great editing skills to boot.
This is a VERY worthy tribute to the Persona 5 OST, and by far the best I've witnessed so far.
Now, would you be so kind as to paying such a tribute to "I do" from the Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex soundtrack? Technically it's easier than this one by far, but if you can convey the feeling...
4:01 you can really feel the raw emotion when you see his exaggerated expressions it really adds another level of appreciation, gotta love this piece.
Your energy is insane Casey. Also the solo at the end was nuttyyyyy
2:27 Casey's vocals GO SO UNREASONABLY HARD
2:25 Yusuke just perished in front of my eyes
poor boy just got Thanos'd
Joker, I don't feel so good...
@@Dot.17 "Joker, I'm not feeling very good"
Yusuke! Noooo!
Yusuke: I'm sorry. *fades away*
I love how you just "belt it out" I mean that as a respect
Just chanced upon this cover today and man what a beautiful listen throughtout. When we get to that vocal harmony at 3:33, I am just evaporated. And the solos at the end?! That's some *chefskiss* stuff right there. Absolutely amazing cover.
Incredible, this is truly the same caliber as the version in the game.
Kudos on the incredible work.
Damn, y'all knocked it out of the park. Casey rockin' the vocals as always. Also lookin' hell fresh, damn.
Beautiful!
Edit: 10 months later and I still love this. I wonder what a persona RWBY crossover would be like.
Can't get enough. One of my favourite songs in the Persona soundtrack simply made better. Well done guys honestly this is amazing.
i literally wish i was as cool as every single one of you. amazing cover!!!!
Thank you for a great cover.
Clear, crisp quality all around, her vocal range and control, the great instrumental. Goddamn, this is good.
Not enough people talking about my man going absolutely sicko mode at 4:02
Thanks much! It was too much fun 🙌
2:44 is so fucking cool
This is my first time seeing or listening to this singer and I swear to God based on the thumbnail I thought this was The Sphere Hunter which is why I clicked on it. Well, now I have another talented voice to blast in my car.
Beautiful voice!! I would love to listen to other persona’s songs by you 🖤
This is actually incredible the mixing here is top notch probably the BEST cover of this song that isn't Lyn. Awesome job!!
This is without a doubt the new definitive version of this track! There are many fine covers that do the song justice, but this one exceeds and shatters all expectations!
Casey sounds better than ever before and the guitar work is phenomenal without being too much. The overall production and instrumentals are the perfect expression of the sentiment of the song.
Amazing work! Just bought it on Bandcamp! Thanks Tournament Arc!
Amazing Cover guys, and as no Surprise Casey is the friggin GOAT!
She doesn't look like the "sound cannon" she is holy shit....I have idea hiw big or little she is but she puts POWER through
Her pipe with every lyric
This is by far the best cover version, I'd say it even topples the original by Lyn, since she always overdoes it live
Solid arrangement. Really dug the vocal harmony on the chorus added a nice new dimension and the organ solo of course was absolutely nuts
Appreciate it! 🙏
Hell yeah. You guys are going in my lifting playlist. Thanks everyone. We need a duet with Casey and Lyn.
I thought I couldn't be any more floored by this, then my man came in with the live organ solo on an actual organ I was losing it!
Hahah thanks! Always a blast playing with these folks
this is by far my favorite cover of the song, stellar work!
This is the best cover of this that I've heard yet. Wow, I'm blown away!
I noticed this on the "Topic" channel but I couldn't comment on that video. So....this was amazing. I really like the take Casey did on the vocals and her voice is a great fit for the song. She's got a really powerful voice and honestly she's on par with Lyn herself.
that progression to the velvet room theme in the end is godlike. Amazing job guys /,,/
Oh hey Mason. Good to see you man! This cover is killer.
wow! i loved it!
This is Amazing!
Casey's Voice is Astonishing
and the Band is Beautiful!
Casey is my current favorite vocalist, for sure. I've always loved her voice, but she is on the brink of absolute mastery. RWBY's latest theme chills me, and this... this is legendary. Gotta give it up for the instrumentals here as well. Total dopamine rush.
Nice cool the see you guys back it’s been a minute
ボーカル、ギター、ベース、ドラム、全て完璧なカバー
You guys did a really great job with this cover. Well done!
You guys are back! I waited for ages you know? I miss you guys so much. I love your Beneath the Mask Jazz cover omg
Her voice is incredible. This is raw talent!
The instrumentals are also fantastic. You guys really did Shoji Meguro's arrangement true justice!
OMG... this was a nice Last Surprise xD. Casey Lee Williams
omg casey brought back memories i always thought she was so cool
Love how this cover weaves in the opening notes of the Aria of the Soul at the beginning and end.
Awesome work guys! this sounds great
MY FAVORITE LAST SUPRISE COVER EVER. So freaking awesome!!
Y'all fucking killed it! Easily the best cover of this song. Really loved the harmony at the chorus.
Epic as hell. Love every member. They all played spectacularly. Casey Lee vocals was the cherry on top. Music to the ears =)
Y’all are awesome for this !
The Aria of the Soul guitar-riff was fire as hell
I missed that detail and am so grateful that you pointed it out. Now I can appreciate this rendition even more haha
Ngl, at 0:45, I caught chills.
Fantastic job on this one.
Huge fan of the personal series soundtracks you guys and gal demolished this song!! Absolutely love it!!!
As someone who has heard P5 themes and covers for almost 1 year straight, I am really mad at TH-cam for taking almost 3 months to recommend me this one. This is seriouly incredible.
wooooooo! great job here! wish i listened to that live outside!
Chills. Love to see playing video games in jam sessions.
I think this is the best cover of the Last Suprise I've heard. Defenelty gonna be my favorite, Casey and the band did an amazing job!
So good, but also so underated. You guys really deserve more attention 😉
You guys are amazing!
WOOOOW THE BEST COVER AAAAAAAA I JUST LOVE IT AAAAAA OMG
I remember when she was a little kid in RWBY, glad she still rocking! Love her voice!
You guys are oozing with Style! Love this!
So glad youtube recommended this to me, I never knew I needed this in my life. Loving this!
Makes me want to play persona 5 again.
I heard this cover like a Thousand times! So cool! Keep The good work guys!
My dudes, this is such a killer video!!!
This is absolutely amazing.
I really hope you all might do some more of the Persona 5 music. Soooooo many great tracks in there.
I didn't care for Last Surprise until I heard this cover. Love you, Casey Lee Williams!
