I love that text so much. It really drove home to me how the nomai were a bunch of maniacal scientists. "How to efficiently transport materials to build the probe cannon?" "Tornado". "How to figure out the location of the Eye?" "BRUTE FORCE BY FIRING THE PROBE 9 MILLION TIMES" Makes me think if they didn't get wiped out they might've figured out a way to save the universe
I don't think I'll ever experience a game like this, it's just special and perfect. I'm so scared this will be the best game I'll ever play in my life.
It really is a journey unlike any other. Having already experienced the best that video games have to offer is definitely a weird thought to swallow, but we’re lucky to never really know what’s coming next. There’s always excitement for games on the horizon, just as there was for Outer Wilds at one point.
I feel the same way a lot of the time, but then i’m forced to realize that I’m missing the point of the game if I do that… Then I miss the game again 😅 Being human is difficult. this game told me that things die/end and that’s okay because it happened…but that doesn’t make it any easier to move on from things you love. I guess its ironically human that the outer wilds community loves to relive the game through other people’s playthroughs, and the music, years after its release
Don't be scared, you can always find something interesting, Outer Wilds doesn't cover all existing mechanics, plots and genres. Just because Outer Wilds is great doesn't mean, that you can''t have fun with other great games. Disco Elysium, Baba is You, Doom Eternal, Ultrakill, Slay the Spire. Just a random list of good and popular games from my mind, Outer Wilds doesn't compete with them, they give different tasks, emotions or plots.
"As a child, I considered such unknowns sinister. Now, though, I understand they bear no ill will. The universe is, and we are." Thank you Solanum, you'll always be my beloved ::)
I have always founded this kind of covers of covers most fitting for the game. I think that most likely how everything sounded on the Eye: cozy and very natural, not very clear, just a bunch of friends playing around the campfire.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Recording all of this live and sacrificing some audio quality was definitely a scary decision to make, but I thought the intimacy of playing the piece live on-site was much more important, and I’m really happy I made that decision. Thanks so much for listening!
It’s such a beautiful piece on its own, but with the weight of the game’s story behind it, it’s elevated even more! Prahlow did such a fantastic job on the soundtrack!
If you don’t have the time to play, can I recommend Playframe? He does a full playthrough, finds all the lore, and does occassional lore catchup timeline stuff. This game had such an effect on me and the song does bring me to tears but in a good way.
If you enjoy the song so much, I highly recommend playing the game, it really adds to the song, and there are many incredible soundtracks in the game and the dlc. BTW, in case you haven't heard already, go into the game with as little knowledge about it as possible. If u already know the story that's ok too, but it's better the less you know, in case you ever wanted to play.
In-game, there’s at least the aspect of finding all of the travelers. We quickly realized that it could be cool to implement something like that into the cover, and I’m a sucker for how it turned. I’m really glad you liked it as well!
Thank you all for providing a fantastic smile and some warm fuzzies to my night. What a beautiful game and glad to see the beauty it's creating in its resonance with others.
Thanks so much for checking our video out! I’m really glad you liked it. I only beat Outer Wilds back in September but it’s been on my mind pretty much non-stop ever since. It’s such a beautiful experience.
I can't describe it any better than "friendship and unity" the power of love and unity that this game possesses is incredible and seeing the community of this game do beautiful things like this makes me feel that life is beautiful and that it's okay to be sad in difficult times for the simple reason that when this music echoes you know that you won't be alone at any time, Thank you Mobius Thank you Annapurna And thank you to all of you who made this cover so beautiful
Absolutely. There are so many phrases about taking the good with the bad for a reason. Hardships are just as important as the moments where we feel on top of the world. You really can’t have one with the other, and music is there with us through it all. Thanks so much for the beautiful comment and support!
Its currently 9 in the morning and I thought to myself, "Do I wanna cry this early in the morning?" I'm glad I said yes to that question. Amazing video, beautifully done.
I love how everyone joins in later, adding so much more to the song, just having those friends makes the experience makes it so worth it. fantastic job!
It was absolutely worth the effort just to have gotten to make music with friends, but I’m so glad that our music has reached all of the people it has. Thanks so much for listening!
Thank you so much! The ending brought so many emotions, but the sense of affection and optimism brought by all of the travelers being together again was overwhelming. I knew from the moment I saw that scene that I wanted to get friends together to play this live. I’m really glad you enjoyed it!
This felt so truly pure and warm and sentimental, just a little bright moment to get lost in… the visuals were serene, and everyone performing really brought this all together. Amazing work man, to you and all involved - this is something really special.
Thanks so much, Hart! It certainly took some effort to get everyone together amidst some busy schedules, but we got it recorded and it was well worth it! I’m glad you liked it!
This is phenomenal! As someone still playing through the game for their first time, I love this tune so much and it so perfectly encapsulates the feeling you get discovering the game's secrets for the first time! And this is a lovely tribute to/cover of the song.
OMG this is so so GOOD! I like how you all complement each other so perfectly, it sounds repetitive yet I never wanted it to end, the vibe is sooo uplifting. I like that whistling too haha, amazing work y'all!
Thank you so much! I’m really glad you liked it! I didn’t write out a set number of loops, so I wouldn’t be surprised if each take we did was timed differently. We just played until we felt like it was time to move on, and I think that really helped everything naturally come together.
this melody never fails to bring tears to my eyes, as it opens up a lot of emotions i don’t normally focus on. i can’t overstate how much i love listening to music as a coping mechanism. thank you for giving me another beautiful way to hear it. ❤
Music is such a powerful thing, and we’re all so lucky to be able to experience the music we love as deeply as we do. Thanks so much for listening to our music!
In process of completing this game, the tune of the travelers and their unique instruments make me sleepy, so much that i end up waking up to a supernova each time, amazing cover!
@@XanderPlute well finally i have ended the journey, it was an amazing one, tearjerker.. and now I feel that something has changed but i'm the same, thank you for this amazing cover.
Oh, if we could’ve had someone playing Solanum’s weird Nomai synth pad I’d have jumped on the opportunity, believe me! I’m glad we kept it all acoustic, for logistics if nothing else. I’m glad you liked it!
@@ReavoEnd oh I have and it was a blast! Listen closely enough and you may hear one of us singing to replicate the Prisoner’s instrument! Shoot me a means of contacting you and we just might be in touch. I’m always happy to meet and play with more musicians!
Beautiful work ❤ I think that the best part of Ourer Wilds beside the feelings is the need of gather friends around and play Travelers. It's my wish too, and I'm happy to see that you made your one come true! Big thank you for sharing the story in description, it feels so good ♥️ and the idea of leaving the scene one by another is touching. I felt this again like in game. We'll all pass in time, leaving just like this, and that's... okay. Because we've already made our journey together. Love.
Absolutely! The ending showing all of the travelers in one place solely thanks to the protagonist’s memories of them is a testament to how important friendships are. We had such a fun time recording this, and I always love sharing my experience with covers in the description for anyone who wants to read about them. Thanks so much for the beautiful comment and for checking out our project. I really appreciate it!
I know nothing about this song or game, but this cover was so captivating. I felt a huge wave of emotions while listening, and the production on this is incredible! Fantastic job to everyone involved!
Thanks so much, Jon! I really appreciate it. I really think you’d like it. I can’t say much without spoiling it, but you should absolutely give it a go!
Been a minute since I finished the game but listening to this reminded me why I love it so much. Thanks for all the insight in the description!! The flute solo was so, so good
Thank you so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed it! I always like writing out the process, as simple or complex as it may be, for whoever might care to know.
Beautiful performance from all of you, the cover felt so genuine, and it clearly shows you loved the game as much as pretty much everyone who was lucky enough to play it. The aesthetic, how each "traveler" shows and leaves one by one, starting with the banjo and ending with the banjo. This was magestic, thank you for making this beautiful video come to life! Everyone who played Outer Wilds, (and even those that couldn't have the pleasure yet) , will love this cover you made!
Thanks so much for all of the kind words! This performance got a few of my friends to experience Outer Wilds for the first time and I’m really glad that it has reached everyone it has. The game is absolutely breathtaking and it means the world to be able to spread the inspiration it gave me and be met with so much positivity.
Omg i got goosebumps at the end, such an emotional when music going faded and only just vocal of you guys. This music not just for fun but something that i can't even describe how beautiful it is. ❤
“The pain of your absence is sharp and haunting, and I would give anything not to know it; anything but never knowing you at all (which would be worse).”
This really touched me, all of the decisions that you made to do this video, collapsed into one thing - a beatiful version of Travelers. Thank you Seth, Emmy, Isaac, Aaron and Xander!
I’m so happy that we were able to come together to make this, and even more so that it’s touched so many people. Thank you for the kind comment, and I can assure you the others have checked back frequently. They all appreciate the love being shown too.
First of all, this was amazing, well done to everyone involved! the flute part really made me want to pick up flute again. Second - this piece in particular always makes me cry. There's a lot of impactful moments in the game, but when I lined up all the instrument frequencies for the first time? Just undid something in me. This performance captured that perfectly.
It’s such an amazing piece, and outside of the ending scene, it can only be heard played all together if you’re very far away from all of the planets. I remember being blasted away and, feeling so hopeless while so far away from anything else in the solar system, pulling out my signal scope only to hear all the travelers playing together. It was such a beautiful moment. I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed our own spin on this piece. Thanks so much for listening!
Awesome job with both the music and the visuals. Playing music from Outer Wilds always feels cozy and wholesome, but doing it with others must feel special. Also, that flute solo felt very fitting! Great to see you put your own spin to it.
Thanks so much! We all had a blast getting together to film this. I’m really glad to hear you liked the flute solo. I was definitely hesitant to include it.
AHHH another Outer Wilds cover?? What a treat. And this one is a really beautiful (live!!!) collab. I'm feeling so many things right now listening to your version of this nostalgic tune. I really like the unique original bits sprinkled in as well, especially the flute. The video with all of you there around the campfire is the perfect atmosphere as well. Great job, all of you!
I couldn’t help myself! I’ve been thinking about the game practically non-stop since I beat it, and as soon as I heard this piece in the game I knew I had to round up some friends to get it recorded! I’m really glad you liked it! I knew from the start that I wanted to go all out on this, and with how big of an Outer Wilds fan you came across as from the End Times cover, I was excited for you to see this one!
Cool live cover man, there's just something special about live performances but it's good to see the quality is still pretty good, especially seeing how the instruments start adding up little by little. Great work!
Thanks so much, man! There’s no way to replicate studio quality in a setting like this but I’m really happy with how everything sounds and it was well worth the small sacrifice for the authenticity of the music and visuals. I’m glad you liked it!
You guys did a great job with this cover! I played the game for the first time in 2024 so I was a bit late to the party, but it left such an impact on me and I really loved it and the soundtrack - Travelers, 14.3 Billion Years and the main theme especially. Love the way you shot this cover too, the performers and videographer both killed it - a really fitting tribute to the game!
Thanks so much for the kind comment! I was also very late to the party. I finished the game in early September of 2024, and a month later, we filmed this video. I’m still actively thinking about the game almost every day, honestly!
This was incredibly beautiful. I love the decision to play it all on site live, everyone coming in and leaving one by one, it just feels right. I have a lot of positive memories tied to this song and all of you did it great justice, thank you for your work!
Thank you so much for the kind words! Recording everything live definitely forced us to sacrifice some fidelity and audio quality, but as far as I’m concerned, it was absolutely the right choice. We had a blast and it made the music much more intimate, as this track absolutely should be.
The world may end. Our stories may turn to ash. Our lives may be a cosmic flicker, and even as kind as we may be, it may not matter. Humanity could become perfect, but they will die too. And it doesn't matter. Because we have our friends. Our family. Here. Now.
I love your cover and the idea to do it all live! It feels imperfect, just like the life of Hearthians, and the flute solo brought the 'cover' part to the front. Thank you!
Gosh this is so friggin good!! Truly captures the essence of Outer Wilds, a game about playing music and roasting marshmallows around a campfire with your friends...
After I beat the game, I went on a viewing spree of just about every Outer Wilds cover I could find and that definitely influenced my decision to get this group together and make one of our own. I’m really glad you enjoyed our performance!
literalmente chorando de saudade e nostalgia por algo que vivi em um videogame :') esse jogo, essa música e esse vídeo são arte na sua forma mais pura, que lindo!!!
Video games can be just as emotionally powerful as any other form of art or media. I’ll be the first to admit that I cry over video games and their music a lot. Thank you so much for the kind comment. I really do appreciate it.

“We do not have much connection, you and I. Still, this encounter feels special. I hope you won't mind if I think of you as a friend.”
“I’m glad you remembered me.”
this song is new to me, but I´m glad to be part of it
“A conscious observer has entered the Eye. I wonder what happens now"
- Solanum
Me: "they get a like"
I would never want to leave the Eye of the Universe if it was just living in a constant state of jamming out.
Thanks so much for the support!
“Science compels us to EXPLODE the Sun!” … and jam out to these groovy tunes in the process
Maybe that’s the real reason the Nomai weren’t able to accomplish their goal. They were simply grooving too hard.
I love that text so much. It really drove home to me how the nomai were a bunch of maniacal scientists. "How to efficiently transport materials to build the probe cannon?" "Tornado". "How to figure out the location of the Eye?" "BRUTE FORCE BY FIRING THE PROBE 9 MILLION TIMES"
Makes me think if they didn't get wiped out they might've figured out a way to save the universe
@@XanderPlute nah they weren't grooving enough that's why you make it in the end you had the GROOVES
And so, a new universe began to live with this melody as the foundation from the past...
“All that remains is to collapse the innumerable possibilites before us. Are you ready to learn what comes next?”
I don't think I'll ever experience a game like this, it's just special and perfect. I'm so scared this will be the best game I'll ever play in my life.
It really is a journey unlike any other. Having already experienced the best that video games have to offer is definitely a weird thought to swallow, but we’re lucky to never really know what’s coming next. There’s always excitement for games on the horizon, just as there was for Outer Wilds at one point.
I'm pretty okay w/ it being the best game I'll ever play as it's a pretty damn good game.
I had the exact same scare as you! Please try 1000XResist, it may have an answer to your issue!
I feel the same way a lot of the time, but then i’m forced to realize that I’m missing the point of the game if I do that… Then I miss the game again 😅 Being human is difficult. this game told me that things die/end and that’s okay because it happened…but that doesn’t make it any easier to move on from things you love.

Thank you Solanum, you'll always be my beloved ::)
Solanum is awesome! Moments I got to spend interacting with her were some of my favorites in the game.
“I am ready.”
I have always founded this kind of covers of covers most fitting for the game. I think that most likely how everything sounded on the Eye: cozy and very natural, not very clear, just a bunch of friends playing around the campfire.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Recording all of this live and sacrificing some audio quality was definitely a scary decision to make, but I thought the intimacy of playing the piece live on-site was much more important, and I’m really happy I made that decision. Thanks so much for listening!
not only did the performers kill it, so did the videographer! Beautiful, bravo! bravo!
Everyone did an amazing job! I was really happy to have them all on board. Thanks so much for the kind words!
Every Outer Wilds cover is perfect as long as it's done with friends.
Every Outer Wilds cover is perfect… but having friends to play them with is always a plus!
The sounds of the universe feel a lot less lonely around a campfire
It’s just something about them…
I never play the game, but every time I listen to this song, I feel like crying.
It’s such a beautiful piece on its own, but with the weight of the game’s story behind it, it’s elevated even more! Prahlow did such a fantastic job on the soundtrack!
If you don’t have the time to play, can I recommend Playframe? He does a full playthrough, finds all the lore, and does occassional lore catchup timeline stuff. This game had such an effect on me and the song does bring me to tears but in a good way.
Play It
If you enjoy the song so much, I highly recommend playing the game, it really adds to the song, and there are many incredible soundtracks in the game and the dlc. BTW, in case you haven't heard already, go into the game with as little knowledge about it as possible. If u already know the story that's ok too, but it's better the less you know, in case you ever wanted to play.
Join the (best) cult, play it. The music will make you cry even more.
I love that you can hear each of them walk up and join. It adds something that I wish was in the original
In-game, there’s at least the aspect of finding all of the travelers. We quickly realized that it could be cool to implement something like that into the cover, and I’m a sucker for how it turned. I’m really glad you liked it as well!
Merci pour ce moment, c'est définitivement la plus belle musique du monde
Thanks so much for listening!
I’m glad you liked it!
slt la team fr
In the ancient glade
Across old bark
In the quiet shade
Its always dark
Gabbro was always just chillin’.
thank you for letting me be a part of this Xander! 🥰 much love and to many more collabs 🤍
Thank YOU for being so willing to join in! You all did great and I’m so grateful for the help!
The smoke behind the box-slapper makes him look like hes so steamy
I’m so happy with how the lighting turned out. The videographer killed it!
imma tell everyone I'm a box slapper now thanks
i could write an essay about how much i love outer wilds and ANOTHER essay about how much you guys killed this
It’s such an amazing game! I really appreciate the comment!
Do you think I could write my college essay based off of the message and the experience of outer wilds and how it ties into my life
Honored to be included in this project! Seth Nardo did such a good job with the visuals. Turned out great!
Everyone did a fantastic job! I’m happy to have had you on board!

5 am listening to this remembering the whole game, man what a feeling. Nice cover guys, greetings from argentina!
Thank you so much for listening! It was such a wonderful game to experience.
Its currently 9 in the morning and I thought to myself, "Do I wanna cry this early in the morning?"
I'm glad I said yes to that question. Amazing video, beautifully done.

I'm such a sucker for this game. Just the banjo alone makes tears well up in my eyes
It was such an incredible journey. Thanks so much for checking out our performance!
This video is just beautiful. It perfectly encapsulates the feelings I had when finishing the game. It even brought a tear to my eye. Thank you.
Thank you so much! The ending brought so many emotions, but the sense of affection and optimism brought by all of the travelers being together again was overwhelming. I knew from the moment I saw that scene that I wanted to get friends together to play this live. I’m really glad you enjoyed it!
Couldn’t say it better myself! ❤😢😊
nah this was beautiful. chilling. awesome job yall !!!
Thanks so much!!!
Wow. I always love acoustic covers, but this tops them all, simply fantastic.
Thank you so much! The track lends itself so well to this style.
@@XanderPlute No problem! It really does!

Must be a startling awakening. Thanks so much for the support!
@@XanderPlute well finally i have ended the journey, it was an amazing one, tearjerker.. and now I feel that something has changed but i'm the same, thank you for this amazing cover.
It’s a very beautiful journey. I’m so glad you finished and enjoyed it. Thanks so much for the kind words!
poua poua poua c'est archi cool !
Thanks so much!!
Super Nice!! little different from the game which is awesome. Love how you guys came in and out at the beginning and end. Cool!
Oh, if we could’ve had someone playing Solanum’s weird Nomai synth pad I’d have jumped on the opportunity, believe me!
I’m glad we kept it all acoustic, for logistics if nothing else. I’m glad you liked it!
If you think Solanum's piano sound is weird... Well. I hope you play the DLC someday soon ;)
And if you need a pianist, well... Hahaha.
@@ReavoEnd oh I have and it was a blast! Listen closely enough and you may hear one of us singing to replicate the Prisoner’s instrument!
Shoot me a means of contacting you and we just might be in touch. I’m always happy to meet and play with more musicians!
That makes me fly through the deep space! Awesome! Thanks for that!
Just be careful not to fly too close to the sun! Thanks so much for listening!
@@XanderPlute hahahaha. You're right! Thanks! 🙌🏽
Such beautiful music to sit and watch the stars die with

An excellently endearing rendition of this melancholic yet peaceful tune.
That’s a great way to describe it. I’m really glad you enjoyed our performance!
A year ago i ended this life changing experience and i still can't get past trought the first notes of this song without tearing up
It’s such a beautiful and emotional game that I’m so glad I finally experienced this past year.
Been a minute since I finished the game but listening to this reminded me why I love it so much. Thanks for all the insight in the description!! The flute solo was so, so good
Thank you so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed it! I always like writing out the process, as simple or complex as it may be, for whoever might care to know.
This so beautifully captures the heart and soul of Outer Wilds. I'm really happy we're all here.
As am I. Thanks so much for the support!
This is the most beautiful example of “Life imitates Art” that I have ever witnessed. Thank you.
Everything about life is artistic to some degree. Thanks so much for checking out our performance!
This song saved my life and listening to it like this, again, feels so special. Thank You!
Outer Wilds helped me out during a pretty low point myself. I’m really glad our cover was able to reach you, and thanks for the kind words!

“The pain of your absence is sharp and haunting, and I would give anything not to know it; anything but never knowing you at all (which would be worse).”
That quote hit so hard when I first read it.
@ it’s the most powerful to me, makes me cry every single time just as this song ❤️ this is overwhelming in such a beautiful way
Estou chorando. Que incrível! Conseguiram transmitir toda a emoção e mais um pouco dessa obra-prima.
I’m really glad you liked it! It’s such an emotional piece of music.
absolutely lovely. thank you for arranging and uploading this, ive always wanted to see a cover as nice and cozy as this one
As soon as I saw the scene in the game, I knew how well it would lend itself to a live cover. Thanks so much for checking the video out!
I never get tired of this song and your interpretation is very nice!
It’s such a peaceful track! I’m really glad you liked our performance!
This is so beautiful, it got me emotional. Very very beautiful cover and amazing atmosphere, everyone here killed it! Wish you guys all the best!
Thank you so much! We all really appreciate the positivity.
This really touched me, all of the decisions that you made to do this video, collapsed into one thing - a beatiful version of Travelers. Thank you Seth, Emmy, Isaac, Aaron and Xander!
I’m so happy that we were able to come together to make this, and even more so that it’s touched so many people. Thank you for the kind comment, and I can assure you the others have checked back frequently. They all appreciate the love being shown too.
Thanks you for this moment, bless all of you.
Thank you so much for listening!
“Whatever happens next, I do not think it is to be feared”
“Thank you for facing what was hidden in the dark.”
This is a phenomenal piece of work. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for listening! I’m really glad you liked it!
Amazing. I still have never finished OW but this piece is exquisite.
It had me stumped a few times but it’s so worth finishing! Thanks for checking our video out!
First of all, this was amazing, well done to everyone involved! the flute part really made me want to pick up flute again.
Second - this piece in particular always makes me cry. There's a lot of impactful moments in the game, but when I lined up all the instrument frequencies for the first time? Just undid something in me. This performance captured that perfectly.
It’s such an amazing piece, and outside of the ending scene, it can only be heard played all together if you’re very far away from all of the planets. I remember being blasted away and, feeling so hopeless while so far away from anything else in the solar system, pulling out my signal scope only to hear all the travelers playing together. It was such a beautiful moment.
I’m really glad to hear you enjoyed our own spin on this piece. Thanks so much for listening!
Awesome job with both the music and the visuals. Playing music from Outer Wilds always feels cozy and wholesome, but doing it with others must feel special.
Also, that flute solo felt very fitting! Great to see you put your own spin to it.
Thanks so much! We all had a blast getting together to film this. I’m really glad to hear you liked the flute solo. I was definitely hesitant to include it.
My favourite cover of this so far. Great playing
That means a lot! I’m really glad you enjoyed it!
AHHH another Outer Wilds cover?? What a treat. And this one is a really beautiful (live!!!) collab. I'm feeling so many things right now listening to your version of this nostalgic tune. I really like the unique original bits sprinkled in as well, especially the flute. The video with all of you there around the campfire is the perfect atmosphere as well. Great job, all of you!
I couldn’t help myself! I’ve been thinking about the game practically non-stop since I beat it, and as soon as I heard this piece in the game I knew I had to round up some friends to get it recorded!
I’m really glad you liked it! I knew from the start that I wanted to go all out on this, and with how big of an Outer Wilds fan you came across as from the End Times cover, I was excited for you to see this one!
OMG I got the chills what an amazing christmas treat from you and RJ absolutely fantastic. Much love from Denmark and happy hollidays ❤
Thank you so much for the kind words! Happy Holidays to you too!
Cool live cover man, there's just something special about live performances but it's good to see the quality is still pretty good, especially seeing how the instruments start adding up little by little. Great work!
Thanks so much, man! There’s no way to replicate studio quality in a setting like this but I’m really happy with how everything sounds and it was well worth the small sacrifice for the authenticity of the music and visuals. I’m glad you liked it!
You guys did a great job with this cover! I played the game for the first time in 2024 so I was a bit late to the party, but it left such an impact on me and I really loved it and the soundtrack - Travelers, 14.3 Billion Years and the main theme especially. Love the way you shot this cover too, the performers and videographer both killed it - a really fitting tribute to the game!
Thanks so much for the kind comment! I was also very late to the party. I finished the game in early September of 2024, and a month later, we filmed this video. I’m still actively thinking about the game almost every day, honestly!
This was incredibly beautiful. I love the decision to play it all on site live, everyone coming in and leaving one by one, it just feels right. I have a lot of positive memories tied to this song and all of you did it great justice, thank you for your work!
Thank you so much for the kind words! Recording everything live definitely forced us to sacrifice some fidelity and audio quality, but as far as I’m concerned, it was absolutely the right choice. We had a blast and it made the music much more intimate, as this track absolutely should be.
Let there be light.
Aaah, great job, lovely arrangement, and the sounds are beautiful, beautiful people you are!
Thank you so much! We had a blast recording this and I’m really glad people are enjoying it!
Together anything is possible, facing the end of everything at least we have our friends and the music they share with us.
That’s right. At the end of everything, I’ll be glad to have been a musician who was able to inspire others and bring people together.
Amazing work👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks so much!!!
The world may end. Our stories may turn to ash. Our lives may be a cosmic flicker, and even as kind as we may be, it may not matter. Humanity could become perfect, but they will die too.
And it doesn't matter. Because we have our friends. Our family. Here. Now.
All we can do is our best… our best to live a fulfilling and kind life while we can. That’s enough for me!
Absolutely amazing!
Thanks so much!!!
I love your cover and the idea to do it all live!
It feels imperfect, just like the life of Hearthians, and the flute solo brought the 'cover' part to the front.
Thank you!
Thanks so much for listening! I’m really glad you enjoyed our performance!
Awareness is spreading. the outer wilds movement is in motion and cannot be stopped. Don't be late to the party
It’s such a fantastic game, and from my short time being involved, the community surrounding it is so creative and inspiring!
Got some hard chills, bro how beautiful this is
Thanks so much for listening!
Это было просто фантастически, ребята вы потрясающие!
Thank you so much!!
Amazing, and keeping my outer wilds obsession strong
I’m glad you liked it! This whole project was fueled by my own obsession that started after I beat the game a few months ago!
Gosh this is so friggin good!! Truly captures the essence of Outer Wilds, a game about playing music and roasting marshmallows around a campfire with your friends...
Thanks so much! I wanted to be as true to the game as we could, given the limitations we had.
"This song is new to me, but I am honoured to form part of It"
Solanum’s the best!
So peaceful and relaxing, love this colaboration!
That Guitar player... I think she's pretty cool!
She is, isn’t she? And surely there’s very little personal bias in that comment.
Thanks so much for checking out the video. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
@XanderPlute
No bias at all... lol!
A truly beautiful cover! This is really something special here
Thank you so much!
Beautiful cover!!
Thanks so much!
Wasn't looking for it, but glad i clicked and watch you guys play this amazing song....
I’m glad you liked it! We had a blast recording! Prahlow’s music is so fantastic.
It's amazing.... I'm crying again because of this game and this music...thank you guys a lot
I’m so glad our music has been able to touch so many people. Thanks so much for listening!
to this day I still can't listen to this song without crying
It holds a lot of weight, with or without the story’s context behind it. Prahlow made a very beautiful composition!
I just finished the game and didnt want it to end…now this song hits so hard. Thank you so much.
I didn’t either. It was such a captivating journey. Thanks so much for listening!
this was beautiful. smiling through tears :)
Thanks so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed it!
Such an impressive achievement to do this live! Well done!
Thanks so much! Coordinating it was honestly the hardest part haha!
that was just the coolest. wow. also replayed it once, playing along. how could i not?
Thanks so much! I can’t blame you. It’s such a fun track to just jam over!
Incredible performance of an incredible song. The passion is inspiring
Thanks so much! Music has always inspired me, and I just aim to spread that inspiration to others.
This is the coolest thing I've seen in years. Thank you very much for these tears❤
Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m really glad you liked our music!
I love watching Outer Wilds covers, but this one has something special. You’ve created an amazing video, congratulations!
After I beat the game, I went on a viewing spree of just about every Outer Wilds cover I could find and that definitely influenced my decision to get this group together and make one of our own. I’m really glad you enjoyed our performance!
Dude this is so cool! Love how this turned out!
Thanks so much, Sean! It was a blast to work on and has me really wanting to get more ambitious with future projects.
Everything about this is awesome 😊😊😊😊
Thank you!!!
the universe is, and we are
Simplesmente incrível salve do Brasil 🥰
Thanks so much! I appreciate the support!!!
literalmente chorando de saudade e nostalgia por algo que vivi em um videogame :') esse jogo, essa música e esse vídeo são arte na sua forma mais pura, que lindo!!!
Video games can be just as emotionally powerful as any other form of art or media. I’ll be the first to admit that I cry over video games and their music a lot.
Thank you so much for the kind comment. I really do appreciate it.
the energy, the feeling, insane
Thank you so much!!
