11 years ago. Up all night playing AW1. Nearing the end. Find a warehouse. See radio turn it on. War beings to play. Enemies come. Time to dance! Unforgettable!
This music is perfect. I have heard it more than 200 times and its still as good as tge first time - no wrong tune, no breaking voice, no unfitting fillings like yeah or baby... Simple perfection. Still my very favorite song by potf, and there are so many.
+Migel, sloth emperor First I heard and I liked this much. I found this out only because I happened to look into Alan Wakes files. I remember this song pretty well since then.
"Out on an ashen burning field stands a man, his back towards you. As you draw closer you see the unmistakable crest of your nemesis on the back of his ripped raiment. His sword drawn, the point trailing down to the ashes. He's been waiting for this day. He knew it would come eventually. The fiery ground licking your boots, you limp towards him, afflicted by the injuries suffered over the years of searching for this demon. You deftly draw your sword with a small grunt of pain. Afflicted but ultimately indominated. "Heiman! I have come for you!" He closes his eyes in resignation. He remains impassive, his back still turned. A gust of smoke and fire kicks up. He looks over his shoulder simply and speaks. "So you've come brother. What hope have you brought to fend off your demise? God stands with me. What god has your back?" The words echo for a time in the wind. With your eyes red from the smoke, and the fire rising all around you, you say one final thing before ending it all. "No gods here. I stand on my own." Don't know why but this is what jumped into my mind after giving this a listen.
I believe hes found the true God...the one that has no name...but is given by man...inspired by the essance if God...at this time,blashphemed,because the ones who held his name,lost heart,true love,and inspired hatred,because of what they portrayed,because of what they became...inspired feeling of loneliness...because we forgot what the true God is. To this day,we still think he's on our side,thinking he's gonna get us through all that's going on right now...by supplying us with all the crutches we've made for ourselves,all that man has made,created,when it's the very thing he's trying to pull away,take away,from us...to make us see how empty we are,how broken we are,how faithless in the true God we are,without the work if our hands...how we've pushed and shoved,even with simple emotions,of extreme happiness...because if all we had,while those lost,broken,stayed behind...because they longer,and lingered for the real thing...but the more we were given,the more that emptiness came...because the real thing,the real essance if love,not lust,not passion,but love...pure... Was lost,through all the greed...rich,poor,all became needy for gain,for more,nomatter the price,nomatter who's would were left behind...who's spirit was left dying in life...so consumed in all these worldly things,we wouldn't recognize a broken person,if we passed them by...because all there is,is us...our life...our matters...as if they're not even there...casted out...I believe the tables are being turned,and we don't even know it...the last will be first,and the first will be last...woe to those who let my sheep(the lost,the broken) get scattered...to be devoured by wolves...he promises he will come save them ... I believe he knows that now...because we haven't known to reach out and show people the way,we've made every thing good,dirty,because of what we've done...it's come as you are...doesn't matter what you look like,all that matters is the heart ...
Like many others, I found this band because of Alan Wake. Playing the game, I just had to listen to this whole song. Such a good band and such a good game.
@@chrismaverick9828 Fun Fact: The song "Late Goodbye" by Poets of the Fall was based on a poem written by Sam Lake, who is the face model behind the first Max Payne as well as the lead writer for Max Payne 1, 2, and Alan Wake. Marko Saaresto, the co-founder, lead vocalist, and primary songwriter of the band happened to be good friends with Sam Lake, and that's how the song came to be created.
They really are poets. This is beautiful. It really is. This is the kind of music that inspires you and you can listen to over and over. It has meaning to it.
Still playing this in 2020! I recently played Alan Wake with my b/f, and when this came on I lost it! I had no clue that they had music in the game, but it reignited the love I have for them!
War is not just the real thing... Every day, we're battling against difficulties and obstacles of any kind, even against ourselves. I think I should thank God that sent me an excellent comrade to wake me up and make me stop being a loser. Dunno if you reading this, but... "I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought".
Brittany Walter Kanye and Kanye, that's all I can think of... xD (It's obviously a joke, but if you do think Kanye, then it fits him so well, because he is such an egotistical ass hole xD)
this song not only represents fighting wars but the love you have for family other significant partners or brother hood it's a eye opener but ur all right....... RICKYL
I don´t need a fandom, a movie, a dream or any fantasy. We did it here, so many times. And for all that I will love you today and every day for the rest of my life.
***** no i'm not that interested in the comment section of youtube. i scrolled down out of boredom when i was listening this song and i saw the comment. just wondered. thanks for the information
Played through the game this week myself and came back to this band from a loooong break because of it. Loved the game and fell in love with Poets of the Fall once again^^
I found this song listening to a playlist based on Soldier 76 and Reaper. It is now one of my favorite songs. This is why I listen to Rock and it's sub genres instead of the "music" they play on the radio.
This song packs so much emotion right from the start to the end found it after finishing AW1 and hD it on my iPod when the worst news I had got at the same time but even tho I tire up I still love it. ❤
Besides a rather interesting and strangely in depth game that shows remedy is the best at making there protagonists monologue even the smallest event to seemingly grandiose detail.
One of the best games.. Amazing Story.. Amazing Characters.. Amazing Graphics... I loved every second of it, hell I've played it non-stop thus I finished it too early D: .. Remedy Entertainment is win.
I was out in public when i first heard that song on my Spotify and I literally almost came in my pants during the bridge like wtf?? It's a f*cking eargasm!!!
Arthur and Merlin 1000000%, White crippled wings, AITHUSA, destinies, 2 sides of the same coin, and when Arthur fought in the last episode Merlin was there, but Arthur didn't know it was him, IT IS THEIR SONG
Merlin has been, and always be, my favorite TV show. At first, I only started watching it on Netflix because Asa Butterfield (young Mordred) was in it, and I was a fan of him. Then I just started falling in love with the show. Merlin will always be a part of me. For the love of Camelot............... :'(
The mood in the whole game, the characters, the town, the whole story. You just get sucked right in, and you will just love the characters! And it`s so "scary" and lonely sometimes, but also when you get to the light, or a town during the day you get like a ah chill and safe feeling! Just play it :D
They even made the music video of this featuring Alan Wake. It, was, so, KICK ASS!! I love Alan Wake and Poets of the Fall...I miss them...I think I'll replay it when I get home. :3
I'm seeing a lot of Daryl and Rick here, which I totally agree with. But I can't believe I haven't seen any Anakin and Obi-wan comments. This song is PERFECT for them

me too (Alan Wake), i remember, it was a magic-moment when i heard the song for the first time!
Johann Muster Yeah music video was good too.
If you like AW1 the song the long good bye was for MaxPain2

Found this extremely underrated band thanks to the extremely underrated game Alan Wake.
2021 i found it lol
Found 10 years ago
2023. after the sequel was announced to release later this year, I decided to give the game a try. glad I did.
Like many others, I found this band because of Alan Wake. Playing the game, I just had to listen to this whole song. Such a good band and such a good game.
I found them from Max Payne II. Absolutely love them.

@@wtfpolice While I could not have remembered that for trivia, I do remember reading that somewhere before. Thanks for the refresher.
I was playing this song while I was working out. I cried, but felt stronger with the emotions it gave me. Very surprised how perfect this is.
What a pussy.
@@shanesmith6078 fuck off
@@shanesmith6078 if it helps him, more power to him. Why tear that down?
@@shaereub4450 I'm just ducking around. 😆🤣

Late Goodbye features heavily in Max Payne II.
Reminds me of the Rick and Daryl friendship from The Walking Dead. This song just fits perfect for that!

I think I should thank God that sent me an excellent comrade to wake me up and make me stop being a loser. Dunno if you reading this, but... "I only need your name to call the reasons why I fought".
Man, this brings back memories from about 10 years ago. First heard this in Alan Wake. Liked this group ever since.
Alan Wake brought me here!
+Joacomans ohh yeah him
It was "control" for me.
"Uh Barry, what's with the christmas lights?" Haha
Incredible he has a powerful and emotional voice.
Three seconds into it: new favorite song.
I seriously love this song, like seriously. Gives me so much meaning in this life on this planet.
We have never been to the moon, american exceptionalism is a myth
This song is the definition of love.
I can't believe that 'What does the fox say' is better rated than this... I COULD PUKE!!!!
i so agree have you played alan wake this song was on that with a lot of other good songs
I like both. This is for when I'm in a serious mood; "The Fox" is for when I want to laugh.
Rick and Daryl.
Sam and Dean.
Dean and Cas.
Harry and Ron.
Merlin and Arthur.
This song makes me think of so many fandoms. It's amazing.
Brittany Walter alan wake - flashlight
felipe gomes yeah thats the only thing that crossed my mind too

Brittany Walter Kanye and Kanye, that's all I can think of... xD (It's obviously a joke, but if you do think Kanye, then it fits him so well, because he is such an egotistical ass hole xD)
Dom and Brian

Such an epic song. One of my favorite songs from Alan Wake
Yep, same here, this song is perfect to Merlin!!
'we were one with our destinies entwined' Arthur-Merlin
Commander Shephard and his/her crew.
Oof right in the feels
Alan Wake trying to rescue his wife from the darkness

this song not only represents fighting wars but the love you have for family other significant partners or brother hood it's a eye opener but ur all right....... RICKYL
This song speaks to my heart. I hope others feel the same for what this song represents to some people.
I have a PS4 and Thanks to the remastered I could play Alan Wake. IS a truly masterpiece!
My sister introduced me to this song and now it's stuck in my head
I don´t need a fandom, a movie, a dream or any fantasy. We did it here, so many times. And for all that I will love you today and every day for the rest of my life.
"I can get to her now, i can finish this"
I doubt it.....
TwilightSparkle Fan do not doubt (It's a line from Alan Wake)

Amazing stuff!
I LOVE THIS SONG!
Merlin Blake and Arthur Pendragon
Optimus Prime and Rachet
Eren Jaeger and Armin Arlert
Rick Grimes and Daryl Dixon
this song suits them all.
Jack Morrison (Soldier 76) and Angela Ziegler (Mercy) from Overwatch

Erwin and Levi are more like allies than brothers
Unlike Eren and Armin.
i've always thought this was more of a love song personally.
Dean Winchester and Castiel
2024 anyone ?
Every song I listen to from POTF gives me goosebumps
Vito and Joe, Adams and Walker, Rick and Daryl, Jax and Opie, Mike and Linc, Jack and Tony...I could go on.
It is, it's not nearly getting the praise it deserves!
I’ve never left your side MK 🔥🔥🔥
Really hope Remedy will have PotF add some music for Quatum Break as well.
0:42 the chills....
One of the most amazing songs
Amazing and Powerful song. Thank you for sharing!
Loved Alan Wake and the commenter underneath me took the words out of my mouth. This game has introduced me to some pretty amazing songs.
Before that awesome refrain, comes that incredible drum solo, I always do it my hands :D

Who here 2024?

Considering Sam Lake himself has said they want to make Alan Wake 2 clearly the ending is meant to be continued.
ALAN WAKE
It's not the most known game, but all its reviews and critics are very positive, so I wouldn't say it's underated.
Dean and Castiel. I'll say it if no one else will.
best song ever
"And we fought to believe the impossible."
A few years ago I first found this band, few weeks after I played Alan wake and found this song. Years later I'm here again
Still better lovestory than Twilight.
The doctor and his companions
