Tyler did say when introducing the video that even though it’s based on the moment from the show, he really tapped into his own emotions and experience with recently losing his grandma. It’s so beautiful.
And, it's somewhat triple entendre, the song eventho specifically talk about the Arcane's Viktor lore and Tyler's memory with her Nana, but if you look at it using the perspective of the Clique, it also talks about how Clancy has the potential to be Bishop, and if he does become one, there'll be people who'll "disappointed" in him, and there'll be people who'll support his decision, with the underline that he'll try to do better than the "control freak" Bishops before him. ....... that if he crossed The Line.
@@KamiKazual I can say that the game itself is dope, but the community making it toxic and it being addictive is a reason not to play it. Because you hate it, you hate the people, but you cant stop.
Here is fragment of interview with Maria Egan (from Riot Games): “What happens with Arcane is that we shall get sent some animatics or rough storyboards and there will be a temp track attached to it. I won’t say what the temp track was, but it was a song that immediately made me think that Tyler Joseph has to write this. The moment was designed for this band. We have great relationships with managers and labels, and we knew that Tyler was a fan of the show and that they wanted to do something with us. We went to their manager, Chris Woltman, and I just said, ‘Look, we have the perfect scene for him. Would he consider doing it?’ He never really writes for anything else, but he loves the show so they wanted to see it and we sent it over. Literally three days after he got the scene, we got the song back. In a lot of the cases, with ‘Arcane’, we have four or five artists try something and try a completely different energy. But when that one came in it was like, ‘Okay, well, that’s it’.”
If you're not yet convinced, this track is part of a 1hr album of 22 songs exclusively made for the show, featuring bedroom pop to heavy metal, including Linkin Park, Woodkid, Ashnikko, d4vd, Djerv, Misha Mansoor, Stromae, Tom Morello, and that barely scratches the surface. If you're a music fan, you just can't pass on this show. At the very very least listen to the album because the quality is top tier.
the song in the Arcane lore context is about the character Viktor, he has the ability to "seize" the dead, he's able to heal and resurrect, but also use them as messengers. viktor loses himself in this. you can definitely see inspiration tyler has taken from this in tøp lore! this show is amazing, definitely watch!
Tyler said this song is about his grandma in an interview before the video was released - he was in the room with her when she died apparently and said that changed his life (he also mentions her in navigating when he talks about everybody leaving) - similar to how Heathens was about the fanbase, but also worked with the movie there are also some theories that this ties into Clancy possibly crossing over to becoming a bishop - and this could sort of be a teaser into that being the conclusion of the story
Please watch Arcane. It's a masterpiece. Tyler wrote this in 3 days after receiving the scene in the show this song plays during. He recently witnessed his grandmother passing, so this is incredibly personal. It's so beautiful, so painful.
@@KrispyDev Awful is a huge stretch that isn't reflected in any review scores or what audiences are saying all over. I've seen some people say it was bad because it wasn't what they wanted it to be, but saying it's awful is just wrong. You might not like it, but that reflects your tastes, not the quality of the show.
I never saw the show, but this song, Tyler's vocals, and the lyrics hit me hard. I suffered a lot of loss in the last couple of years, and this song immediately went straight to my heart and soul. Powerful!
I know what you mean, I never saw the show either but only in the last 2 years I lost my permanent job, I cut ties with my best friend, my long lasting relationship ended and I lost my grandma and grandpa.. I was there when he died, I heard his last breath, it changed me in so many ways, it's embodied in my soul..I'll never forget that ethereal moment, like an out of body experience... that's why I also feel so connected to this song.. it's on repeat everyday..
@@MegaNoemi95 You are right -- it changes you. It is like breaking a beautiful vase on the floor. You can mend it, it will look the same, but it won't be. It will forever have cracks in it. I am sorry you had so much hurt recently. Tyler knows just how to create such artistry that he hits the emotion right on point. If you know, you know. Sending hugs and prayers through cyberspace.
This song absolutely shatters my heart into a million pieces, and it's definitely made me sob more than once, knowing that Tyler wrote it from such a place of such deep grief and love for his Grandma. I can't even imagine how much strength it took for him, to share all of those feelings so plainly with us, and turn it into something so hauntingly beautiful. I'm just so proud of him, and I hope he knows that his Nana probably is, too!
I think it's about Tyler changing... but I feel like it's a sort of convo back and forth between them, too. I feel like "stay your pretty eyes on course" is something maybe Tyler's Nana has said to him many times through his life 🥹
I clicked the notification as soon as it popped up. I, honestly, am rating this as their best song so far. And yes, definitely watch the show, it's incredible!
I think it has meanings both to Arcane, Tyler's family, and the Lore. In terms of the Lore, it seems to be the sequel to Paladin Strait - Clancy is at the point of giving up and is apologizing to the banditos, succumbing to potentially becoming a bishop as the sun is rising.
Yes Tyler for his part, as he stated in the intro to the mv, he wrote this in the hospital room as his grandmother passed away. As well have been contacted by riot games and the company representatives of the Netflix series. Which is a must to watch if you remember league of legions. It is great as was your reaction
I don't think he was writing this while she passed away. It came after. I'm pretty sure he was paying attention to his grandmother, not a sheet of lyrics.
Arcane so perfectly weaves music, animation, emotion and story together that it is an actual experience watching it for the first time. I have never played the game nor did I know anything about the characters. Twenty One Pilots absolutely fit into the music of this show. I am jealous you guys have not seen it yet because I wish I could go back and experience it for the first time again. I highly recommend you check this out, especially if you are a fan of music and art coming together for perfection.
You need to know nothing about LoL to love Arcane, by the way! You guys should absolutely check it out, it's absolutely my favorite show and one of my favorite pieces of media over all. Every aspect of it is just so well crafted (including the soundtrack imo :] ) and it's also just visually a damn treat to take in. Fair warning, though, it might rip your heart out and use it as a chewing toy bahah
This one, Truce, Neon Gravestones and to some degree paladin strait have this vibe I feel like. And they are some of my favorite songs my Tøp ever made.
for those who may not fully see....LISTEN to the very end of "The Line" it flows right into Overcompensate. Tyler wrote this song after Navigating and it follows Clancy debating on "Crossing Over the line" to becoming a Bishop. He's asking The Torchbearer (Josh) to not be disappointed and not forget him for making this decision. Clancy needs to take on Nico from the other side.
Tyler said this was inspired from having been in the room and watching his grandmother pass away. I too just this month was in the room when my grandfather passed so this song hits me hard. Having been written from what seems to be the dying loved ones perspective i think of my grandfather and how he mustve felt but grateful he was not alonr as we were with him. Tyler is such a great song writer...love it!
Tyler was in the room when his grandmother passed away, and that changed something in him. I see this as a letter to his grandmother. When it's his turn to pass, will he join her in Heaven? Will he have lived a life that made her proud? Arcane is set in a dystopian Steampunk world with the Topsiders and undercity dwellers. It's the classic dystopian class division with haves and have nothings. We meet people from both societies. There are tensions, science experiments gone awry, battles, infighting, political intrigue, power dynamics, romances, parent-child dynamics, triumphs and losses, joy and anguish, sibling bonds, hope and despair, etc etc etc. I binge watched both seasons in 2 days after I heard The Line for the first time.
Without spoiling Arcane, This song is basically like you're tired, broken, and sad but you have a boss fight in 2 minutes, the character "Viktor" that's featured in this song is such a phenomenal character and this song fit him and his big moment perfectly
arcane is *unparalleled.* i am a monogamous stan, i like *one* thing for about six years at a time. but i watched arcane to have full context for this song and not only do you get 200% more out of it upon a rewatch because the storytelling is so complex and tight, but people are so right to call it one of the best animated series of all time and one of the highest rated shows netflix has ever hosted. i'm not asking you to react to it, but do not deprive yourself of this body of work. you don't need to know anything about the game and the series is complete as of its (recently aired) second and final season. it's gold, gentlemen.
Oh my gosh you guys did react to it! Such a beautiful and sad song Also, now technically everyone has a song written for themselves In Tyler's family! Johnny Boy - Tyler's Dad's song Shy Away - Jay's song House of Gold - Tyler's moms song The Line - Nancy Legend - Grandpa Joseph
It's an Amazing show to watch ! And every track involved has so much power and emotion to each part , this part hits hard and so does their song to it they did amazing with this 🙌🖤
It is so real.. I think that is the ultimate vibe ✨️ 😌 gives you the best heartfelt soulful song that we've been able to have Tyler draw up. Amazing series to watch. Glad you caught the look being like Marvel's What if show
I’d never watched the show or played the game so thought I’d give it a try after hearing such good things about it. I ended up watching both seasons in a few days. I was astounded how good it was. Absolutely blown away by it. Give it a watch. Also what a beautiful song, they matched the emotion of that episode perfectly.
Incredible song. Catches so many emotions and if you saw the series you have all these moments in the show where you can feel the pain and emotions of all the characters that are infused in the music video. I just saw it the 5th time in a row today and have been for several days and get goosebumps every time.
7:50 Andrew Donoho was the director. He has worked with Top for years. He did the Trench Trilogy songs, The Outside, Next Semester, Paladin Strait and more.
He had this whole song written and produced in three days. Tyler is a fan of the show, and the head of music for Riot knew that the scene they had was meant for his writing style. I also highly recommend the show, it is super interesting going into it after going deep into all the Trench lore and seeing how many parallels there are. Yeah, I'm still all up in my feels on this one, hurts so good.
You absolutely should watch the show, it is fantastic, easily one of the best things I've ever watched. Fantastic art, amazing story and characters and an amazing soundtrack as well.
Arcane is PEAK you will not be disappointed. Music and animation for the series are just so insane and the writing is top tier. Best show I’ve seen in many years. 100% watch it or react to it. Don’t care what you do but watch it you owe it to yourself!
Touching on what Eric was saying in terms of the entire tone of the song coming from that sad place, another song worth checking out from TOP's discography is their cover of "Cancer" from My Chemical Romance. I think that'd be a reaction all of us TOP fans would love to see from you guys.
First of all, this song and video are absolutely beautiful and can be interpreted in many different ways. I know that this was written for Arcane, however it is odd that it only took Tyler 3 days to have it fully done. It makes me wonder if maybe he already started writing this to honor his grandmother and possibly use it as part of the continuation of the lore. It’s kind of crazy to me that the synth at the end of the Paladin Strait video when Tyler opens his eyes sounds a lot like the beginning of this song. I have also heard of a theory that has been swirling around about Clancy becoming a Bishop and it’s pretty convincing if this song has anything to do with the lore since it mentions crossing over, facing fears, and mentions of disappointing someone (the banditos?). Another reason I think this could relate to that theory is because of the letters that were recently found during the tour at the FPE exhibit. There was a message from those letters that read: “We must destroy them, or we will become them, and if we become them, we must do better”.
You guys absolutely need to watch Arcane. It’s probably one of the most visually pleasing shows I’ve ever seen and easily one of the greatest animated shows ever made.
Arcane is by far the best animated TV show or movie ever made. Its the highest rated Netflix original of all time, and currently season 2 is tied for the highest rated TV show season of all time. this show will tear your heart out over and over and over again. would love to see a reaction series for the show!! It is only 2 seasons long, there wont be a season 3 sadly
Yall should watch Arcane! I don't really care for the game, but the show was good! The music they use for the show in each episode fits the scenes so well
Absolutely need to watch Arcane. If you're enjoying this video, you will be sucked into the shoe instantly. Everything about it is such a unique experience.
This was inspired by the show. He liked the first season and write it thinking on the characters. But we can still relate to it in some way. It is beautiful.
Arcane was the best show I've ever watched, the animation the soundtrack everything about it was amazing and the massive budget they had shows, Its 100% worth the watch if you guys liked this song, they have so many fantastic songs on their soundtrack.

....... that if he crossed The Line.
@hio.hinomaru21 you're right on!!! IMO
100% watch arcane, it’s the best show Netflix has ever put out in my opinion.
Probably because Netflix has nothing to do with it other than a distributor
@@fondubynetflix gets the fattest bag. Marketing can cost upto 50% of the total show budget
Up there with Dark
Daredevil and Punisher do exist though so tough fight
Blue eyed Samurai is a close 2nd
You don’t need to play the game, but the series is AMAZING.
I’d argue it’s better not knowing anything about the game, so you don’t know where certain characters end up
yeah, you'll get stressed playing that game (League)
On the contrary, I think whole league of legends community can agree, do NOT play the game. Never play the game. Just watch the show lmao
i've been playing league since 2016 and this game is a curse, arcane however is in my opinion the best show i've ever seen
@@KamiKazual I can say that the game itself is dope, but the community making it toxic and it being addictive is a reason not to play it. Because you hate it, you hate the people, but you cant stop.
Knowing that Tyler stated he was in the room when his grandma passed makes this song so beautifully heartbreaking.

You guys definitely need to check out Arcane. Absolutely brilliant show. Be prepared though, it’ll rip your heart out.
oh 100%, i was so close to crying in all of season 2
The whole Vandor storyline destroyed me 😢

All for the "Glorious Evolution"
Only it's not inspiration because Tyler was doing all that long before Arcane was greenlit
Tyler said he's a big fan of Arcane so I could only imagine how much he enjoyed working on the song
Tyler said this song is about his grandma in an interview before the video was released - he was in the room with her when she died apparently and said that changed his life (he also mentions her in navigating when he talks about everybody leaving) - similar to how Heathens was about the fanbase, but also worked with the movie
there are also some theories that this ties into Clancy possibly crossing over to becoming a bishop - and this could sort of be a teaser into that being the conclusion of the story
I've personally always theorized that Clancy will become a Bishop. It just makes sense in a dozen different layers.
Please watch Arcane. It's a masterpiece.
Tyler wrote this in 3 days after receiving the scene in the show this song plays during. He recently witnessed his grandmother passing, so this is incredibly personal. It's so beautiful, so painful.
A masterpiece is a stretch. Season 2 was awful. Their songs in the show are great though

This song was about him being in the room while his grandmother died. I think it’s totally from his grandmother’s perspective.
YES!!! its absolutely from his grandma experience, he is even animated like vander's memories, like he is his grandma's memories while she passes :/
Nah he's talking about himself changing after being there with his grandmother as she passed

It's an Amazing show to watch ! And every track involved has so much power and emotion to each part , this part hits hard and so does their song to it they did amazing with this 🙌🖤
What happens when you cross the line?
Glorious evolution
This song sounds like when you have a boss fight after 10 minutes
100% watch arcane! best series ive ever seen tbh
Absolutely recommend the series, you will LOVE it for sure.
This song is so beautiful! 💛
1:03 oh nooo, kyle was so happy before eric screamed at him 😭🤣
The director of the video was Andrew Donoho, who has worked with them on quite a few videos.
It is so real.. I think that is the ultimate vibe ✨️ 😌 gives you the best heartfelt soulful song that we've been able to have Tyler draw up. Amazing series to watch. Glad you caught the look being like Marvel's What if show
I'm binging season one at the moment! I have this song on constant loop!!
You'd love Arcane NGL

Arcane is my favorite animated series of all time.
And season 2 is amazing at closely integrating great music with the action/story.
This song was hauntingly beautiful and so tragic. 😢
Arcane is amazing, can't believe they finally done something like that, and never will be another series like that anytime soon, INCREDIBLE!
You absolutely should watch the show, it is fantastic, easily one of the best things I've ever watched. Fantastic art, amazing story and characters and an amazing soundtrack as well.

Arcane is easily in the top 10 shows of all time not just animated shows, ALL show period.
Arcane, best tv show in almost 10 years. Amazing master-piece
The end of the song matching overcompensate’s beginning its 100% tøp
I've never heard of the show, but really enjoy this song a lot
Honestly would love an arcane reaction. Their use of music is incredible.
We can't. Uploading music reactions is already full of issues let alone a show. Plus we don't have the time.
Eric “This is not what I was expecting” every time! 😂😂😂
Arcane is an INCREDIBLE show. Pure peak cinematography, and emotion
Please both of you do yourselves a favor and watch Arcane!
Arcane was magnificent imagery and story telling combined with hand picked music to enhance everything into one amazing show.
I have had this on repeat. 💜 That line (no pun) Did I disappoint you? Will they let me over? If I cross the line. 💔😭 Great reaction!
Look up Tyler’s explanation of the meaning behind the sing for him- he was in the room when his Grandma died….it changed him.
Just like everyone else said, WATCH THE SHOW. 😂
Absolutely amazing
This is the best animated series I've ever seen!! You should watch it, it's amazing. The song is so sentimental
You guys absolutely need to watch Arcane. It’s probably one of the most visually pleasing shows I’ve ever seen and easily one of the greatest animated shows ever made.
I believe this answered the end of Clancy. Tyler has his ways of making one song incorporate several stories. So sorry for his loss.
Such a beautiful song. And you should definitely watch Arcane. I don't know the game, but the show is phenomenal.
Arcane is by far the best animated TV show or movie ever made. Its the highest rated Netflix original of all time, and currently season 2 is tied for the highest rated TV show season of all time. this show will tear your heart out over and over and over again. would love to see a reaction series for the show!! It is only 2 seasons long, there wont be a season 3 sadly
you absolutely have to watch the series
Yall should watch Arcane! I don't really care for the game, but the show was good! The music they use for the show in each episode fits the scenes so well
Arcane does a really good job of setting up characters without having to play League of Legends
Absolutely need to watch Arcane. If you're enjoying this video, you will be sucked into the shoe instantly. Everything about it is such a unique experience.
I'm probably going to watch this show now ❤❤❤
Enjoy, but make sure you have tissues! cos they made that show to hit you in the feels throughout!
Love your guys reactions
I have never played the game but the show is amazing. This song is just the cherry on TØP 😉❤️🔥 |-/
This was inspired by the show. He liked the first season and write it thinking on the characters. But we can still relate to it in some way. It is beautiful.
This song hit me as hard as neon gravestone.
Watch Arcane, it is a spiritual journey that I wish I could go back to for the first time. Excited for the three new series coming out
Guys, in Arcane they use sad songs indeed. I recommend "Wasteland".
My husband is watching Arcane and I’ve only been kind of following it, but the animation is beautiful.
TOP FTW!!!
Arcane was the best show I've ever watched, the animation the soundtrack everything about it was amazing and the massive budget they had shows, Its 100% worth the watch if you guys liked this song, they have so many fantastic songs on their soundtrack.
the most heartbreaking line🫂
Clancy crosses the line, becomes a bishop, feels the torchlight on his face, and asks Josh if he disappointed him
Yesssss to Eric wearing merch!
