OH MY GODDDDD thank you so MUCHHH for loving my arrangements!!!! I’ll happily send you the sheet music if you’re interested!!!! waaaaaowww this was so good for my confidence lol
I never realized that Dodie has that feeling of a mother singing to her child. I always find myself looking to her music for comfort especially when I can’t sleep. I just can’t get over her entire self.
You should listen to the whole first side of dodies album or at least from rainbow to before the line cuz it all mends together with the strings it’s amazing.
I really, like REALLY think you should react to "Sorry" by her. It's beyond gorgeous, I was blown away the first time I heard it. And btw, I really like this reaction, thanks for that!
The best way I've been able to sum up Dodie's music is that it's SO brilliantly complex in its composition, yet so simple in it's presentation that you can't help but be affected, very deeply and very emotionally, by it, whatever the intended affect may be. 🥺🥰😄😭 Very astute commentary. You've put to words all the things that I notice in her music but haven't the words to describe. Thank you and keep this up. 🙏 Also, yes, she does her own string arrangements. She discussed it a bit in her interview with NME (I think it was?).
I'm a music education major, and I just wanted to congratulate your attention to your use of big terms; you didn't shy away from technical musical terms, but made sure to always realize you used them, and then define them in a way that is accessible to anyone, musician or not. Thanks for doing your part in making music ed accessible to everyone!
so dodie actually made this song 4(?) years ago on a smaller scale along with another EP of hers and I loved it back then, but the newer version (this one) is imo slower and more intimate with all the orchestrated elements
from an opera singer lol (also a huge dodie fan), we usually shorten "recitative" and say "REH-sit" if you dont wanna say the longer version and risk mispronouncing hehe. Also, thank you for analyzing this song. Dodie has been my comfort artist for a while now, and hearing you talk about it reminds me of my music theory days earlier in my undergrad. Thanks a bunch!!
This is one of my favorites of her. The strings are absolutely magical. I would never think about how it have a LOTR like sounds in it, but now I can't stop. It's show how amazing dodie writes. She's telling us about something so deeply painful for her; her words are quiet, but what she's saying is so much bigger and whole arrangement emphasize it so well.
i love your analysis and i feel like you speak about the song so thoughtfully which is so nice to listen to :) also, dodie arranged this and it was performed by the parallax orchestra (says in the vinyl credits)!
I’m not sure I’ve ever been moved by a song as much as this one. Thank you for creating this video! As a songwriter this was massively helpful, definitely subscribing!
HELLO you can even look at ? and . omg they are so... intense and beautiful and I want to understand why??! I'm just learning music theory and I really appreciate how you explain everything so well!!!
Ahhh I’m so glad TH-cam recommended this to me bc I *love* this song and I know it makes me feel lots of things so it’s really cool to hear someone pick apart what’s actually going on in there that I don’t know enough about music theory to analyze!! would love to see you do a Hozier song or something by Orla Gartland (since you mentioned liking her too!) next :)
Loved this interpretation of When - dodie’s orchestration can seem simple sometimes when that minimalism is part of the genius of it! I will say, while I did hear the lydian raised 4ths later on in the chords/arpeggios you get into around 7:07 and onward, I never heard the opening notes as Lydian... what you are calling the raised 4th and the 3rd, I hear as the 7th and 6th to a different (regular major) key, Ab. It creates a pull up toward the tonic or down to the 5th looking for resolution. And the Snow Patrol esque notes Ab and Eb become the tonic and fifth. Funny how our brains put the tonic in different spots!
this video is so fun to watch I love the editing and your genuine reactions!! The song had me in a pensive, appreciative mood too, I love how you put words to your thoughts/feelings. Subscribed and can’t wait to see more!!!
That was such an insightful commentary! I've been listening to dodies album constantly the past days and love to get to know more about each of the songs, especially because I really have no idea about the composing part of music so this was super interesting!
you should definitely react to before the line off the same album! absolutely amazing. also when is an old song of hers that she's redone and somehow made more beautiful
I loved hearing this analysis! I look forward to you doing Tessa Violet's music, who I love as much as Dodie, and I hope you continue to do reactions to singers. *subscribed* One of my favorite TH-camrs is Emma Blackery. I find her song A History of Touches mesmerizing, but I don't know why. I don't even know if the music to the song is all that complex or not, but I'd love a reaction video to it if you're open to reviewing it (or any of her songs, really, but you'll find they're all very different from each other ... she likes experimenting with her sound and style, so her songs have changed greatly over the years). Thanks! :)
A CRAZY beautiful piano / experimental song that I think you would love is “Wind Tempos” by Porter Robinson. I’ve never heard anything quite like it before, very orchestral but it has all these glitches and production tricks that make it sound like an artificial intelligence having a spiritual experience
i also commented this on the 'sorry' video, but if you'd like a suggestion on what to analyze next, i recommend porter robinson!! trust me here, man - his new album 'nurture' is just pure magic. plus, i can almost guarantee that'll bring some views :)
OH MY GODDDDD thank you so MUCHHH for loving my arrangements!!!! I’ll happily send you the sheet music if you’re interested!!!! waaaaaowww this was so good for my confidence lol
Yesss the call and response ugh wow this is so so fun to hear you analyse this
excited for u to get to the bursting chord
HAHAH yes the resolution
my friggin god I was expecting this! You absolutely killed it and I'd love to take a look at the arrangement
dodie do you think you’ll ever make your sheet music open to the public?
You said that "The person who made these string arrangements is nuts".
It was dodie.
dodie is nuts.
Came here to say this lol
gasp omg thank u
@@doddleoddle no thank YOU
@@doddleoddle thank u!
Can we talk about the fact that dodie arranged this almost entirely herself with no experience??? She's NUTS
I never realized that Dodie has that feeling of a mother singing to her child. I always find myself looking to her music for comfort especially when I can’t sleep. I just can’t get over her entire self.
I love how he said "I need to find out who did this", like its sounds so accusatory like "how dare you make something this beautiful"
I can't get over how good this song is. dodie knocked it out of the park with this track.
Watchoo guys want to hear next?
Do some film sound tracks! LOTR??
Some more build a problem pls!!
u can check "Ashlyn" album by the artist Ashe, songs like "When I'm Older" or "Ryne's song" are pretty good
MORE DODIE!!!!! would love to hear your thoughts on Before the Line, Sorry, or any song on the album honestly
You should listen to the whole first side of dodies album or at least from rainbow to before the line cuz it all mends together with the strings it’s amazing.
She's talked a bit about how much she's been wanting to compose for strings and this album shows how much work she's done!!
I love your comment mother singing to her child cause i think dodie is singing to her inner child
0:33 I believe you're talking about Tessa Violet. She's was also in Crazy Human Psycho Crush.
“I’m going to listen that again. I’m not going to get over this” me with every single thing Dodie has ever created
I really, like REALLY think you should react to "Sorry" by her. It's beyond gorgeous, I was blown away the first time I heard it. And btw, I really like this reaction, thanks for that!
Yesss, react to Sorry pleaseee
YES! Before the line is also incredible... Kind of want him to hear the whole album lol
@@martinapassaggi6058 totally agree hahah :) dodie really is gold
@@martinapassaggi6058 whole album reaction- PLEASE!!!
Agreed!!!!
One of my favorite Dodie songs. Hauntingly beautiful. I really appreciate your insights.

the album as a whole is so connected and just,,,,,,amazing
11:04 that cello indeed played *"isn't it lovely??"*

dodie’s songs are on a higher level of beauty 🥺😭🖤

what i would give to listen to this version of "when" for the first time again
I actually just listened to it for the first time and I just relate to it so much
Honestly it had deeply entranced for the first long while when I'd listen to it. Very few songs and artists can do to me what she can.
I’m not sure I’ve ever been moved by a song as much as this one. Thank you for creating this video! As a songwriter this was massively helpful, definitely subscribing!
i love watching his reactions because i feel like "I KNOW SHE'S AMAZING RIGHT WE KNOW"
Sir I would appreciate if you went ahead and reviewed the whole album thank you.
her whole album is so amazing the transitions are amazing the songwriting is amazing her voice is amazing she is amazing aaaaaahhhhh
"wheres frodo" XD that was great
this is the best analysis of a song ive ever seen... AMAZING
HELLO you can even look at ? and . omg they are so... intense and beautiful and I want to understand why??!
I'm just learning music theory and I really appreciate how you explain everything so well!!!
10:40 This part also reminded me of Lord of the Rings!!
can you do every song from the album lmao
Ha ha, I discovered dodie two days ago... I'm glad it's not just me. 😳😇🙏❤️🤡🐴 Love your passion, subscribed. 👍
Dude, agree this song is giving me some serious feels 😢
aaaaaa thank you for reacting to this song🥺 this made me even more proud of dodie❤️
Wow!!!
😂 you are a broken man by the end of this i love the "still thinking about this song" I feel you
Ahhh I’m so glad TH-cam recommended this to me bc I *love* this song and I know it makes me feel lots of things so it’s really cool to hear someone pick apart what’s actually going on in there that I don’t know enough about music theory to analyze!! would love to see you do a Hozier song or something by Orla Gartland (since you mentioned liking her too!) next :)
I just love feeling a song so deep and seeing someone feel it as deep and nerd out about them, is everything
Lovely reaction to such a gorgeous song 💕
Loved this interpretation of When - dodie’s orchestration can seem simple sometimes when that minimalism is part of the genius of it! I will say, while I did hear the lydian raised 4ths later on in the chords/arpeggios you get into around 7:07 and onward, I never heard the opening notes as Lydian... what you are calling the raised 4th and the 3rd, I hear as the 7th and 6th to a different (regular major) key, Ab.

Would loveeee to see you analyze her song Special Girl. The instruments in it are so so fun
this video is so fun to watch I love the editing and your genuine reactions!! The song had me in a pensive, appreciative mood too, I love how you put words to your thoughts/feelings. Subscribed and can’t wait to see more!!!
Great video! What a beautiful song

you just earned a new subscriber. love your videos man! keep it up.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on her song Secret For The Mad. The instrumentation is so minimal but there's still a lot to say about her arrangement.
This was an amazing analysis! made me appreciate the song sooo much more. subscribed!
Great analysis, really like how you take the time to break it down the basics of the theory behind the music.
i absolutely adore dodie and this video, don’t stop - can’t wait to see the next one
Thanks so much!
Yaaaay, you got your piano out!
Can you analyse a song you worked on and talk about the process? 😊 keep it up! Love the videos
Haha, Milen these vids are great and love your personality 😄
Best song writing I've heard in a long while.
I really need the sheet music of the strings 🙈❤️
All the Howard Shore/LOTR references 👌😌
you should definitely react to before the line off the same album! absolutely amazing. also when is an old song of hers that she's redone and somehow made more beautiful

basically this video is just milenps fanboying over dodie for 15 minutes straight :)
You should definitely react to more of her music and also check out Aurora, she’s amazing!!
Nice, a small channel that has content. I am early to success.
A CRAZY beautiful piano / experimental song that I think you would love is “Wind Tempos” by Porter Robinson. I’ve never heard anything quite like it before, very orchestral but it has all these glitches and production tricks that make it sound like an artificial intelligence having a spiritual experience
very nice video I loved it
and I love the song too it makes me cry like a baby lol I'm obsessed with that cello its so smart
i also commented this on the 'sorry' video, but if you'd like a suggestion on what to analyze next, i recommend porter robinson!! trust me here, man - his new album 'nurture' is just pure magic. plus, i can almost guarantee that'll bring some views :)
You should react to somehow by Tom Odell because the strings in that song are beautiful!
Can you react to the Dragon Age Inquisition Theme by Trevor Morris??
pls react to sorry by dodie 🥺
PLEASE REACT TO SHOW YOU A BODY BY HALEY HENDERICKXX
You meant Tessa Violet?
Yeap Yeap!
@@MilenPetzelt15 gotta love them
