- Just discovered these adamants yesterday and thought I had to put them together like this. Songs are Where Is Your Rider and Pale White Horse by The Oh Hellos, photos are made by me.
My dear dad suffered from bone cancer for 2 years. Those two years were the worse years of my life so far, even tho im very young..
Sometimes, when he had better days, he could just walk, do his favourite stuff. Do something easy in garage, just.. try live like a normal person even rho he was non-stop suffering, sometimes he could handle it. sometimes we was forced to use a lot of painkillers. And more. and more. Every day he was looking like he was dying, cuz he was but, his face, the expresions of fear, suffering and hope.
Even when he was sleeping.... he was in pain. His face was making painful expressions, sometimes he had ticks from pain while sleeping. I never saw him calm since those 2 years.
But there was one time, one evening his facial expression looked calm.
I was doing my stuff sitting on my chair and he came to my room asking if he can hang out with me, listen to music together.
He layed himself on my bed and closed his eyes..
All of the bright lights were off, only one weak warm lighterd lamp was on.
I decided to play this exact song, actually two songs, on the speaker..
And as he was listening to this... His face got.. calm.. relaxed. Like all of the sudden his whole suffering ended.
I couldnt do anything else than starring at his face.. I even thought he took a nap, but when the song ended, he softly told me to play it again. and i did. Again. and again till he had to come back to his own bed. He thankfully looked at me and said "Thanks you for spending time with me, You have a beautiful music taste"
We told our goodnights, and he went to his room.
That moment when he was deeply listening to this song carved in my mind. Even tho he doesnt understand english as much as i do, he was understanding the melody.
And so when i crossed upon this song in my playlist right now, i decided to share this story.
My dad died a month ago, This song is for you.
I miss you.
Love you dad.
Hello. I didn't see this comment until now (thanks to youtube, I guess) and I don't know if you will read my reply, but your story brought me to tears. I don't think there's much that I can say, just that I pray for your father to rest in peace and my heart goes out for you and your loss. I hope you found strength to live on.
Back when I created this I didn't think this little mash-up would become something that would be so important for someone, something to share their love. I'm glad I could share this with you. And you, indeed, have a very good musical taste.🌾
@@learlir Im gonna be honest. I didnt thought anyone, especially you the creator would saw and read that.
Yesterday would me by dad's 50th birthday, and i hope he can see this, at some point maybe. Who knows, maybe heaven exist, if it does, then my dad deserve a good place there.
Im really glad for a response, im thankful for the prays for my dad. Have this forever in your mind, creator. Remember that this, as u said, "little mash-up" made one of the greatest and one of last memories of my dead dad. Have a great life, thank you
Also im sorry for any grammar mistakes. Now i see them, then, i was writing this im tears, and english isnt even my first language.
I lost my mother when I was 18. It changed my life forever. I too remember her suffering in pain from the cancer. It is a terrible thing. However, I have no doubt that she wanted me to spend what little time I have in this life experiencing beauty, peace, happiness, and love. I know your father would want the same for you. Live you life to it's fullest as a tribute to your father. Do not allow misery to ruin what little time you have. Best wishes.
So at first I was angry at this because Pale White Horse was specifically designed to transition into Where is Your Rider, but you're right - Where Is Your Rider also transitions straight into Pale White Horse. You can just loop this video endlessly and never detect an ending point. Nice!
I never even noticed they were two songs until I came to the comments lol
it's really interesting to hear them in this order, since on the album Dear Wormwood they're actually the other way around, Pale White Horse first, and then Where is Your Rider :)
*Where is your rider*
Was it you 'mid the fire and the ember?
Were you there to bedevil and beguile?
See, your face wasn't quite as I remember
But I know that wicked shape to your smile
Bury me as it pleases you, lover
At sea, or deep within the catacomb
But these bones never rested while living
So how can they stand to languish in repose?
He has thrown down the cavalry as gravel sinks
And as the stone founders underneath the sundered sea of red and reed
The shadow of Hades is fading
For he has cast down leviathan, the tyrant, and the horse and rider
Where is your rider?
He will hold with all of his might the armies of night,
Still as boulders laid to the side 'til we pass by
He has hoisted out of the mire every child
So lift your voice with timbrel and lyre
"We will abide, we will abide, we will abide"
*Pale White Horse*
Down they fell like the children of Eden
Down they fell like the tower
As the land relinquished her ghost
Heed the sirens, take shelter, my lover
Flee the fire that devours
But the sight held me fixed
Like a bayonet against my throat
Neither plague or famine tempered my courage
Nor did raids make me cower
But his translucent skin
Made me shiver deep within my bones
It was a pale white horse
With a crooked smile
And I knew it was my time
It was the raging storm
Of a foreign war
And a face I'd seen before
Thank you
@@koykoyonly1628 you're welcome!
Timestamps, Where is your rider 0:01 , Pale white* horse 3:20
Plus my favorite part, 1:23 and and 4:41
I'm listening to this on repeat as I'm walking through the woods with my dog... Finally got some inspiration to continue the book I'm writing~
Ikr, you just can't resist the inspiration while listening to their songs! Wishing you luck with your book, gonna go work on mine too ;з
@@learlir Thanks and good luck to you as well! You definitely deserve more subs btw uwo
Is it a fiction? Cause I'm writing a fantasy book. The closest thing I can relate it to is Chronicles of Narnia. I love to see people writing books because I don't see it as much. I know I'm late but I really hope its coming along or has come along nicely.
@@astropenguin1631 It is! I kind of took inspiration from Skyrim and LOTR/The Hobbit. It's about a man who's wife is missing and he goes on a journey to find her. I ended up trashing a good chunk of it cuz I felt like it didn't really flow well, but I'm in the process of rewriting.
@@racoonnoises5054 thats soo cool!! i wish it were finished because id love to look at it.
Every DND campaign I run somehow connects to the next one I'm already planning. The players are quickly reaching the end of their current journey and their actions will have ramifications for the next in-game century. Gonna play Where is Your Rider at the end of this campaign and begin the next one with Pale White Horse.
So these songs I realized were about the book of Revelations in the Bible. In Revelations 6 the Lamb of God (Jesus) opens scrolls and put of the first four scrolls comes four horses. Each horse had a rider, there was a white, red, black, and pale horse. The pale horse’s rider’s name (the only name given of the riders) was Death “and Hades followed him.”
There’s a few more textual connections but I found that interesting.
Yeah the entire album is actually based off of CS Lewis’s Screwtape Letters, so it has a lot of biblical references.
The song "where is your rider" is quite explicit with its biblical references given its reference to the splitting of the red sea, casting down the leviathan, and a major theme of the whole song being about God defeating death. That last theme of the song makes even more sense given that where is your rider is supposed to come after pale white horse
id say at LEAST half of the oh hellos stuff is biblical lol
my first listen to this song, it's such a good vibe! at around 6:25 it started pouring in my minecraft world at night, I was in a plains biome and i really felt some emotions that shouldn't come from playing minecraft
My brother you might have just felt the presence of God that very moment lol
3:30 - pale white horse
0:00 - where is your rider
don't mind me im just putting a story together in my head
i'm not familiar with the oh hellos discography so i thought this was a singular song and only realised my error upon googling the lyrics.. the joined title would make a lot of sense tho
This has made me want to start writing again just because of the atmosphere
Go for it omg
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
Yes!! Thank you for this! I knew these songs sounds like they belong together
jesus that transmission is so smooth. nice job.
I have no idea why this video blew up recently but huge thanks for all of you guys listening to this!💙 here's my new mashup of The Yawning Grave and Frozen Pines by Lord Huron, hope you'll give it some love too!

bro the oh hello's are literally so good
I literally had no idea this was some kind of mashup
meu Deus eu sempre ouvi as duas músicas e pensei como combinavam 💗💗
this is so well mixed! i love the vibes of these together :)
First time hearing this song and this artist.. im stuck in a different world.. help!
check out thus always to tryants-the oh hellos , its in the same album and its SO AMAZING
I love the Oh Hellos...
Nice drawing by the way...they both look realistic to a sense
I’m kind of a dumbass I didn’t know these were two separate songs put together. I thought this was just one long ass epic song
Me, a Tool fan: "So you think think this is a long ass song, eh? EH?"
Fear Inoculum, the title song from the album of the same name, is the longest song to hit the top 100, at a whopping 10 minutes and 20 seconds. Their average song length is actually right at 6 minutes, which I would say qualifies for "long ass epic songs."
@@DefensorsPacis *Fellow Tool fan spotted*
i swear my vocabulary expanded by like 10% from these lyrics
Beautiful photos.
For whoever may find this useful, Pale White Horse starts at 3:20
Great song 😩 i just getting flashbacks of my past but looking like a Viking for some reason 😂
Hiraeth - a longing for a place you're never been to, a place that maybe never was.
literally came on while I'm drawing a white horse omg 😭
I like this mix
Is anyone else thinking of the horsemen of the apocalypse? With the white horse belonging to death?
I do think that that is how it was written. It uses a lot of biblical references.
Honestly thought this was all one long song, well done
I wonder why they're put the other way around in the Dear Wormwood album? The transition is MUCH better this way!
this is awesome
I just realized it are 2 songs! Wow!
Why did it take me so long to figure out these were two different songs lol
I thought this was 1 song until I read the comments.
hahaha same
no i thought it was all one song im loosing it
gotcha!😎
idk why but where is your rider reminds me of the red hood
I really want the tabs from the banjo picking part in Where is your rider at about 0:50😭
Anyone else think this was one song?
noice
hello
I feel like pale white horse is about someone in medieval Europe living through a time of war
I would have put them the other way around. it just feels sort of wrong this is way.
Why would you put them backwards?
oh, you mean not in the actual album order? just had a feeling that WIYR's ending blends perfectly with PWH's beginning, plus for me WIYR sounds more like a start+middle of a story, while PWH is an ending part, being at the same time a start of something entirely new. overall, just felt that this would be a fun thing to do :)
the way the songs were originally put together Where Is Your Rider was meant to establish someone on the verge of depressive thoughts due to an abusive relationship and then follow it up with the more upbeat Pale White Horse showing triumph over the speaker's inner demons. you can't mix up the order
I mean, you CAN mix up the order if ya want to
considering this is a religious band with religious music and lyrics, i’m pretty sure the original meaning really ought to not be about depression and a abusive relationship and rather about the four horsemen… therefore meaning whichever order is fine. but whatever floats ur boat my man!
@@bambi.1imb0 the fact that they are a christian band does not mean that they will not write about things like depression. Depression is also something a lot of Christians suffer from.
In this song it is probably not what it is about but it could have been.
@@bambi.1imb0 the writers literally confirmed that, at its core, this album is about an abusive relationship
