Only Us
When bells of shame have faded
And I remain reviled
Let vengeance roar for blood and war
Behind a scornful smile
The vow, the kin, the rival
A vision violent, vile
These questions three have haunted me
Since I was but a child
So much I have lost and so much I resent
My spite became the steps upon the stairway of descent
Let it all burn down around us
Let the cruel consume the just
Let the sin we swim in drown us
Let the world shatter
Into dust
Nothing else matters
Only us
When kings have long been buried
When vows have long been lost
When the night brings fear then the lion’s tears
Shall fall on fire and frost
This hopeless doomed devotion
The poison that I crave
I jilt the new to return to you
Endure you till my grave
I’m no man of honor, my guilt runs dark and deep
My oaths betray each other till there’s nothing left to keep
Let it all burn down around us
Let the cruel consume the just
Let the sin we swim in drown us
Let the world shatter
Into dust
Nothing else matters
Only us
And they will raze our towers
And spit upon our names
And the ravens black over the fields of ash
Will whisper our tales of shame
Let it all burn down around us
Let the cruel consume the just
Let the sin we swim in drown us
Let the world shatter
Into dust
Nothing else matters
Only us
Hey folks, enjoy this musical tribute to everyone's favorite murderous, incestuous siblings :D Big thanks to Karliene once again for her wonderful voice. Check out her channel here: kzhead.info/tools/-QCyIGEY6DzNyQOnyxIaEg.html Also, don't forget you can support me on patreon to keep me in a job!! www.patreon.com/miracleofsound Big luv
I don’t know if I‘d say ‚favorite‘ and ‚incestuous‘ in the same sentence. Although Jamie had one of my favorite character arcs. I miss the seasons now, at least there are the books... although Martin will likely go the way of Robert Jordan.
Thank You for another great song! The lyrics are giving me goosebumps! If only the writers had as much respect for that plotline as you do! Great, awesome work!
Another great song Gav, out of any of the notable characters that played a part in the Finale, Cersei and Jaime to be the focus of your work with the backlash surrounding Jaime's arc being "regressed" is unexpected. I'm curious about your thoughts on the finale overall, could you or have you already voiced those thoughts somewhere on the internet?
Damn that's so good ! Lyrics are genius... Will you release songs on other characters after the finale ?
Thanks Gav
I really love how the woman's voice is more energic and sound of hate and anger, while the male is more melancholic and calm. Just like Cersei and Jaime were.
You should listen to Karliene's other works. You might like Blood Countess
“My oaths betray each other till there’s nothing else to keep.” Perfect summary of Jaime.
Also a reference to the sword Oathkeeper.
There has been more thought put into this single line than into the entirety of Season 8.
Conversely, nothing requires less thought than a generic "AT LEAST THIS WASN'T AS BAD AS GOT SEASON 8!!!11" comment.
@@JaziB I dunno man. Your contrarian hipster comment is scraping the bottom of the barrel.
@@maicoxmauler2825 I still think season 7 was dumber than season 8
That little resentful "endure you till my grave" is such a great description for helpless toxic attraction
Daenerys and Jon had a more toxic relationship than Cersei and Jaime, no matter how much they make other characters talk ill about Cersei there was nothing toxic about her or their rel. that was only the perception of her and that's her tragedy as was Jaime's.
@@SG-pu3rx Isn't Cersei's whole character arc literally about how she is a toxic influence to everyone around her, especially the ones she cares about?
@@SG-pu3rx are you kidding me did everyone forget the time when Jaime forced himself on cerise right beside their dead son
@@SG-pu3rx you're wrong actually. Jon and Dany had nothing toxic in their relationship, because they both cared for each other reasonably (not above their beliefs) and they helped make each other better people. When one of them snapped the other let go of them. While Jaime wasn't toxic to cersei, Cersei was the definition of toxic person. The one you know is using you, but you can't seem to let go of no matter what they do to you. Jamie's relationship with Cersei was so destructive and toxic that she destroyed his whole life. He became a kingsguard, abandoned his inherentance, did evil things and betrayed everything for her.
@@pr_nj_l lol, you left everything Cersei did to Jaime and jumped at that scene that was a camera error? Cersei manipulated and seduced Jaime since he was 17, because of her he left his name and inherentance to be a glorified guard just so he could have sex with her.
"Im no man of honor, my guilt runs dark and deep. my oaths betray each other till theres nothing left to keep." Best part
That really sums up Jamie better than almost anything.
"Let the world shatter into dust - Nothing else matters... only us" Hits me every time with goosebumps !
@Sergi Arilla indeed
That's what selfish people sau(I am selfish)
And that’s exactly how they died
*myself
"My oaths betray each other until there's nothing left to keep" Love that line!
Terraflyer it’s a perfect summary of his character, a man who tries to do the right and noble thing no matter what but he just can’t so he does the best he can and it’s still never enough
pretty brilliant
It is the essence of his dilemma. . .
So much love for this! Had a great time singing on this epic song. Thank you so much, dude!
I love your passion in this song! It really gave me goosebumps when you and Gavin sang together!
A brilliant voice for a brilliant song
Stunning
You can feel passion in your voice. Good work!
I just cant believe how amazing this is to listen to! How have you and Miracle of Sound together managed to make hate, resentment and spite sounds so Beautiful???
"I am no man of honor" THE HALFMAN'S SONG
Also Raven's black against the field of ash is a nod to it as well.
They (Cersei, Jaime and Tyrion) are all Lannisters, after all...
Exactly! But they're all Lion
Any time Gav does multiple songs based on one thing, the later ones have callbacks to the earlier ones. Check out his Bioshock and Red Dead songs, they have some really nicely-done ones.
@@LPTheGas I know he's an artist and he won't do it if doesn't want to, but I wonder how his song version of Ramsey would sound like...seen as a threat to humanity, of course !
''Everyone who isn't us, is an enemy.'' - Cersei Lannister
But what about their kiddos
@@IvanIvanov-qx5oz They also count among ''us''.
@@svartalfheimian8271 does tyrion count?
@@defaulter264 Probably not, I figure it's only Jaime, Cersei, and their children.
@@svartalfheimian8271 Tywin?
I really like how, in the Jaime part, you highlight how much he is aware of how toxic his relationship with Cersei is, and despite everything, he still return to her, addicted to that poison. Some people didn't like that Jaime seem to go back and forth on his character arc; to me, it's a good example of toxic and abusive relationship. Jaime just CAN'T get away from Cersei, as much as some part of him wish he could. This song is amazing, you still are the master.
I don't know if you noticed but when Jaime returned to Cersei in Episode 5, what I saw in his face when he took Cersei i was not the look of love, all I saw was the look of an addict. I don't know if this was the desired effect by Nik but this is what it came across to me. Like the look of someone wanting his drug, not someone happy to see someone he loves.
Exactly it’s not easy to let someone go even if they have wronged you
I think it's more people are pissed at how they did it
I like that view of it and I agree, though like everything else I wish they built up more to it but who knows maybe the romance with Brienne was the build up
Totally agree
“ and they will raze our towers And spit upon our names And the ravens black over the fields of ash Will whisper our tales of shame “ Is just so powerful
Yes!!! My favorite part
And the ravens black against the winter's mist are whispering the halfman's song... I love hos little easter eggs
Seeing Joffrey combined with the line "The Poison That I Crave" really made my day.
Rasmus Christensen In the words of GRRM when that episode came out: You’re welcome.
Game of Thrones: *ends unfulfilling* Gavin: *"hold my guitar"* Take my respect, take all of it, you mad lad from music heaven.
And mine! The beat alone is godly and the lyrics are just.... Mmmmmmm.....
It's more like give me my guitar
I know it's like he just watched the ending and was like *heavy inhale* *in a really epic deep voice* I know what I must do
Pretty sure "when the night brings fear then the lions tears will fall on fire and frost" is also a callback to "with a clink of a coin, loose the lions loin. Play a tune on the halfmans pipe" too.
Miracle > HBO
I think this masterpiece perfecly portrays Cersei an Jaime's toxic relationship. That's what I admired the most about their relationship, even though it's wrong to do so. "The poison that I crave" Jaime knows very well that Cersei will be the end of him, like Olenna said. In both the books and the show, they portray the vanity and the narcissism, illustrated by incest between siblings. They love each other so much, they don't care anymore about the rest of the world. They can't change what they think about them, so "Let it all burn down around us".
yeah, there is no sugar coating, it is destructiv but even without hitting what we percive as the check boxes for love, that is waht it is. We do not love people for beeing good, or because it is right, or for it tells a good story . . . we just due and in that there is no choice! There is a choice in how to act on it for sure, but not concerning the feeling itself and Jaimes confidence that his love is just as valid as everyone elses makes it so intruiging. He is compleatly unappologetic about it, compleatly comfortable with beeing loves bitch. What he does about is wrong, he feels guilty for that, but never for loveing her. My favorit line of his concerning Cercei is that when he was younger he had seen her as the maiden he wanted to protect, now he knowes she is the stranger, but his feelings are still the same.
I don't think she loved him. And i don't think he'll love her in the books anymore, at least the way as always. He'll be the valonqar for sure.
I don't watch GOT, thought this was a story about how their love was forbade because they were political enemies. With the knowledge that they were incestual sorta-kinda disturbs me now. Still a good song, but now I listen to it like pumped-up kicks; "Wow, this is good! Also kinda fucked up though..."
@@someone.5378 Jaime loved Cersei while Cersei only loves Jaime to the extent that he looks like her!
And I think Cersei wanted to be Jaime, to have the freedom he has by being a man and the heir to a powerful lord, and making him hers was the closest she could get
The look on his face when he saw Bran. "The things I do for love." All that guilt and shame over what he'd done laid bare in the face of the child he'd crippled for the one he loved. A child who could look into his soul and crush him, who looked upon him as a tiny, inconsequential piece of a bigger puzzle. Nothing else matters, only us
to me his shame is greater because deep down as much as the act sickens him now he knows he'd do it again
Ahh, those musical flashbacks to Tyrion's "Halfman's Song"... Just brilliant.
Yeah, Gav's callbacks to his earlier songs from the same series (like in Dragon Age, Assassin's Creed) is one of my favorite things about his work. The new songs are always awesome, but the nod to earlier stuff makes it even better.
@@CommaKazie Yeah, I always love these callbacks too. But sometimes they are a bit... primitive even (though I love'em), sometimes it's just the old words repeated, you know... But in this song - not so obvious and absolutely marvellous. P.S. A callback. Hmm, a pretty word, thanks.
I think the precise term would be leitmotiv, callbacks instantly reminds me of my webdev job. ^^
On the GoT OST, these would count as the underlying "Lannister Theme".
Tyrion is their little brother after all.
When a song about a show's ending is better than the ending itself...
@@AshenTarnished because it really wasn't awesome
@@AshenTarnished subverting expectations was only done good when they still based it on the books. These things were also always foreshadowed and made sense and we're logical. This shit of a season made 0 sense and made fan favorite characters powerful political leaders for no good reason, jaime went a whole 180 , dany went to shit, John acted completely out if character , tyrion and all the other intelligent characters acted straight stupid and unreasonable , arya came out of fucking nowhere to one shot the night king only for some second grade human drama war nobody cares about to become the new main purpose of the season , the fight with the hound and the mountain was ASS , the scenes with the city being burned down and arya magically surviving and finding a white horse were the most retarded thing to happen in any season and so many characters that were supposed to find a fitting end were left underdeveloped
@@AshenTarnished Apparently you don't know why people are pissed about last 2 seasons. It's not about the ending, Bran the Broken, Danny's tyranny, John returning to wall - very cool and fitting endings on paper apart from fact there was no setup that made them "earned". Ned's death was understandable as he entered the game he didn't know how to play. Rob's deaths reflects counter to "Love is death of duty" where he lost his path, same goes for his mother. Oberyn died the moment his passion towards vengeance against Tywin clouded his warriors mind. Show told us beforehand's it will happen we just didn't want to accept it, show established all of this - cause and consequences. Tyrion has been joke since he met Danny. Littlefinger died like some noob, not a dude who kicked off whole GOT plot. Vary's "Master" of whispers went face to face with Jon saying "she mad you tru king, teik tron!" Setting up story threads is different from jumping point to point where we have to fill in holes on our own.
Ah, talking about Jamie himself. I don't mind him going back to Cersei to save her. Brianne helped him bring back his honor, my only problem is that he didn't show that at very end. He basically was a ragdoll in these 2 season just going from one place to another(character-wise) with no purposeful explanation.
I didn’t like the ending, cause I don’t like Bran.
Half man's song: "But somewhere deep within me, the *bells* of conscience ring" Seven Hells, Gavin was foreshadowing season 8 all along!
Watch - Gavin's actually a time traveler, who saw the final 2 episodes, then went back and wrote that line. :P
Of course he did He's a God after all.
@@darkdesigns Further evidence is the refrain in "When Winter Comes" which he uploaded back in 2014 years before the Night King broke through the Wall: "Walls will not hold the Winter/Over and under Crawl/Walls will not the Winter/All in the way will Fall"
@@ianoxenham4219 That had to happen for there to be plot. But good attempt!
It might be earlier, but the "my heart is ----" us also a reference
They took their first breath together and their last one too.......
Damn you right
Duuuude, that never crossed my mind, thnx for sharing.
Shared a womb, shared a tomb. I called it in the pilot. 😉
Cercei once said that they were brought into this world together and they will leave it together as well...
Did you just turn two unsatisfying character's arc's endings into a damn good song? That's some Midas touch, right there.
Their end was fitting.
@@jessel3621 They got crushed by some rocks, should have gotten bloodier, more terrible deaths. Especially considering that they're both Kingslayers and Kinslayers and in all fairness the gods should be throwing their wrath down on these two terrible people.
@@99xplord The entire goddamn point of Jaime's story is that those oaths don't matter.
@@eliburry-schnepp6012 don't know if that's strictly true, he did originally have aspirations to be a honorable knight, and he intended to keep his oath to Catelyn Stark, hell they named Brienne's sword Oathkeeper.
@@99xplord Yeah, those personal, moral oaths. But not the vague ones of loyalty and duty and such.
Is it just me that this song actually helps with the ending? especially Cersei and Jamies end?
The arcs themselves are good, the delivery is botched and the main twist is so horrendously underjustified that it sullies everything else. I actually think that Jamie's arc holds up even just with what's shown, but Ep5 didn't feel that way.
it helps show that even after everything that's happened Jaime still can't give up Cersei even if it kills him, he loves her and tries to save her
@@TheMeta141 on the show at least, on the books he is actually showing character development
@@TheMeta141 I'll always believe that he went to King's Landing to stop her. Because Sansa had just told him that Cersei had killed a dragon and that she was winning. But when he went there, there was nothing to stop cause Dany had already done it. So he continued on his mission to go toward Cersei and when he saw her all helpless, he wanted to be with her and protect her. It was similar to Arya who went there to kill Cersei but Dany had already done the damage.
By the Father, the Mother, the Maiden, the Crone, the Warrior, the Smith and the Stranger ... ... there is nothing you cannot make great. Even season 8 ... this must be one of my favourite songs (of yours), the way both your singing hit on the "shatter" and "matter" parts is captivatingly beautiful.
The Hound: Are you gonna do all seven of the fuckers?
We gonna ignore the Old Gods and the Drowned God too?
Dude, never doubt Gavin. He could write a song about Fifty Shades of Grey and it would be awesome.
Fans: „Hey, please don’t ruin the last season,” D&D: „Let the plot burn down around us, Let the anger consume the fans, Let the plot holes we swim in drown us Let the show shatter into dust Nothing else matters, only us.”
I swear the first lyrical sentence made me think you were talking about Dungeons and Dragons... and it still fits. DM: Please don't derail my plot for the story. Players: Let the plot burn down around us... God that gave me a good laugh regardless. Good stuff.
@@SephTheHuntress I managed to skip/ruin a segment of my last D&D session. My Halfling Rogue with +10 bonus to stealth had to crawl through a ton of webs that were made by a shadowy spider. I had to retrieve a package that was in webs. Manage to roll the dice perfectly, skipped over every thread, cut the package off and went my merry way back to my companions. They were pleased. The DM was not.
Unfortunately the last season was the natural consequence of all the character assassination that started in about season 6.
I love how D&D let the last season burn so they could get to work on Star Wars sooner... and then the last season bombed so hard, Disney wouldn't let them anywhere near Star Wars.
@@heiveldboy Ya... If i was the DM you *wouldn't* get away with that shit, the cave would've collapsed or some shit the moment you grabbed that package.
I would love to see Nikolaj and Lena singing this song in a live concert, that would be so epic!
I see Lena Headley being reluctant, some people already see her as indistinguishable from Cersei.
@@JukeboxTheGhoul They are cunts!
Personally, I need to find me a blond dance partner who's not too terribly tall so I can choreograph a violent and passionate pas de deux to this! Seeking short, blond ballet boys!!!

Tarentula12 but can they perform it though half of how it was made by Gavin and Carliene?
I found this in my recommended on spotify and thought "damn, this could be Jaime and Cersei's theme" and came here to search if there was a tribute video. Now I know it's really inspired by them, the lyrics sound even better. Amazing! ♡
Me to :)
"I'm no man of honor, My guilt runs dark and deep" I like Jaime's side of this song.
Truest and most tragic love of the series.
"So much I have lost and so much I resent. My spite became the steps upon the stairway of descent". This is one of many examples why I love your poetry, Gavin. And always remember your name when asked about my favourite contemporary poets. Your lyrics does not simply refer to one character or one particular film, game etc. It is genuinely human and has a genuine appeal to all the people, to humanity, because it deals with everlasting problems of life and death, good and evil, human fate, choice, liberty, justice... When I listen to your songs I feel that they appeal to me. And it is me whose spite led do desent, not someone else to blame. Thank you so much! May you always stay in good health and may your inspiration guide you in the path you've chosen. And great thanks to Karliene, her voice is beautiful!
Thank you Caroline, for the kind words :)
I've listened to most of your songs, but this one is my all time favourite. "No one else matters... Only us." Gives me goosebumps every single time.
"my oaths betray each other til there's nothing left to keep" My head exploded, holy crap!! That was THE BEST LINE!!!

"My spite became the steps upon the stairway of descent" The lyrics, the music, the editing and chosen scenes.. all are so perfect. exactly how they felt about each other. "I'm no man of honour, my guilt runs dark and deep" i do hope Jaime in the books takes a different path though. His honour is still there, contrary to what he believes. it's Cersei that's corrupting him, the mindset of 'only us' that's keeping him from being someone he can be proud of.

The young Wolf would be a nice title as well
Young wolf was what the main character of Destiny was called
Karliene and you've made tremendous job together, i feel vibes of your previous GOT songs :) Amazing song
Wow! If this song doesn't make you appreciate Jamie's circular character arc, I don't know what would! Perfection
The best quick summary of Jamie I’ve ever seen was the line “my guilt runs dark and deep”
This is. Yes. It's everything I would have wanted from a song about these two. This is beautiful.
I like that Stannis is in the frame for the "Kings have long been buried" Stan the Man!
Stannis the Mannis
Honestly I'm really glad you actually understood Jaime's character. Even if the show really rushed his story, it was the only way for it to end. Jaime was truly in love with Cersei despite everything, and you really showed how Jaime always felt trapped by promises, when all he ever wanted in life was for him to be able to settle down with the one he loved and have a normal life
A brilliant composition. Captures the disdain, love and romance of the doomed Lannister twins...
Love the references to the other GOT songs in this, a really nice touch!
was about to write the same thing. Indeed Miracle is a talented composer :3
Ville Sternbeck I only noticed the reference to Halfman’s song, were there any others that I just missed
@@connor4435 I thought so at first but then I realized that there only was two references to the HMS and nothing else
Ville Sternbeck wait, two? I only caught the one where Jamie said “I’m no man of honour, my guilt runs dark and deep” what was the other one?
@@connor4435 3:45 The first half is a recurring line in the HMS
WOW. I literally cried. This song is just fabulous, and so is Lannisters' story.
That chorus perfectly captures what the Lannister twins were about.
Brilliant lyrics. Intricate rhymes and powerful performance. I love the line "My spite became the steps upon the stairway of descent"
What I find more amazing than anything else in this song, is that sweet tune of guitar, right at the beginning, that makes you immediately realize that its game of thrones. "When winter comes", "Halfman's song", "Mother of flames", "When the wolves cry out" and "No one". Every last one of them had this theme at the beginning of their song, so similar and yet so different, like a good story told multiple times but with slight differences that makes you appreciate each one in a different way. Another piece of masterwork for the ages. One that you and Karliene can be very proud of. Hope that you still have more insiration in store for one or two song about the game of thrones universe. Maybe something like "From summer child to winter queen" or "Broken king". I think its the closure that we all really need for this fantastic show.
"I'm no man of honour" Me:I understood that reference
Half Man song: "And the raven's black against the winter's mist" Only Us: "And the raven's black against fields of ash"
The Lannister children are the most fascinating part of A song of Ice and Fire. In the books, you can clearly see how they could have all been better people under different circumstances. Directly or indirectly, Tywin is the catalyst that turns minor character flaws into deeply flawed characters.
@@EivindHillesund yea its kinda sad... in tywins attempt to keep his house great he almost destroyed it, and ironicly the one welp left standing is the one he despised the most
Yeah, Gavin loves his leitmotivs, and it makes it more interesting to follow his works...
@@EivindHillesund idk Cersei seemed a mess regardless. She hurt baby Tyrion not seriously but sick move. She also drowned a freind.
Call me crazy, but I'd love to see Lena Headey and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau sing this together.
Me too 😍
This would be wonderful!!! :3
Assuming they are decent singers, yeah, I'd like that too.
Not only the song is glorious also the video is hauntingly beautiful
Yeah, every frame goes really well with the lyrics.
Ah, don’t you just love it when families take on each other’s traditions? The blackwoods and the Brackens. The Starks and the Baratheons. The Lannisters and the Targaryens...
How so?
The Lannisters and the Targaryens, I get. The rest, i don't.
arjai figueroa the Starks traditionally reject the baratheons, the Blackwoods traditionally despise the Brackens and they the Blackwoods in turn.
@@JamesTAdams And Jaime and Cersei did incest which is a tradition of the Targaryens, am I right? Is that what you mean?
arjai figueroa yep
"And they will raze our towers, and spit upon our names" love that one.
This gave me chills, it is definitely one of your best songs so far! Furthermore, it made me more okay with the fate of Jaimie and Cersei.
Carrying my Patreon message over here. No matter how we may feel about the final season of GoT, we can rest assured that Gav will always bring us quality music based on that content, with meaningful and deep lyrics that, to quote someone else, "digs into the essence of the characters." And just like many of your recent songs, even outside of GoT's context, the song and its lyrics firmly stand on their own. Keep up the good work, and thank you for blessing us with your art once more.
And who are you? The proud lord said.That I must bow so low...Oh, wrong song!Thank you Gav for continuing to delight us with your wonderful songs.
One thing i will admit for that season, the Jaime/Cersei death scene? absolute cinematic magic, as you see them embrace with the tunnel collapsing behind them. Perfection.
My personal interpretation of Jaime's abrupt turn back to caring about her sister above everyone else is that Jaime never could quite forget or forgive his vile deeds. He thus felt "dying with Cersei" is the only script left for him.
I find it more about the depth of his love to Cersei. He for the first time had a free choice to take. And the thought of her possibly dying there was the most painful. He's done so many vile things for Cersei, which speaks to the depth of their love. Even if she might not have loved him as much, he loved her like he had, nobody else. In the end, they died together like they were born, which is poetic, I must say.
That's actually a pretty cool take on the conclusion to his character arc. Unfortunately, I'm fairly certain you put more thought into this than the writers did.
Let the world shatter into dust! When they died, it was over. Best moment in the ending of the series, nothing else even comes close. Beautiful song.
I was just in the middle of listening to your first GoT song and this came up XD Keep up the beautiful miracle that is sound!

What an amazing work ! I think the Lannister songs are my favorite of this whole Game of Thrones themed songs, makes sense given they are my favorite characters and house 🦁🍷
I have never watched Game of Thrones, but listening to this song I sincerely felt sorry for the characters, almost to tears. If this is not a masterful level of transmission of emotions and mood, then I do not even know what then should be considered as such
"My oaths betray each other till there's nothing left to keep" Absolutely amazing lyrics Gav.
This song did something incredible. It made me reconsider my opinion on Jaime's ending xD The singer featuring in this is very, very talented, she has an amazing voice.
The show didn't do any development that would have made this relapse of Jamie's make sense. Season 8 was just in too much of a hurry to get to the end of the race, it didn't bother to build UP to the ending.
@@nraketh My toughts exactly, I was just cracking a joke back there, I still think season 8 to be a complete clusterfuck.
yea this female singer Karliene is amazing, she has done other GoT songs before, as long as other shows and movies. there's one I like very much called Dornishman's Wife based upon the song that Bronn sang
Best birthday gift I GoT today ^^ I love the references to Halfman‘s song
I see what you did there, happy birthday ;D
Slowlaire thanks!!
Gavin understood those characters SO MUCH, it's just perfect. We have all in this song. What they've benn through, what they feel, the constant drama of their doomed relationship... Somehow he managed to make the unsatiesfying end less empty. All my respect, ser Gavin, you are a true artist.
Every song you release, I just have to put on loop for at least one day. Can't NOT listen to it again and again, so so good.
"Tales of shame" This is absolutely masterpiece, great song
Love how the woman playing Cersei emphasizes her S’s, it makes her sound vaguely snake like. Totally fits her dangerous character
Usually it takes me a couple of listenings to really get into a song, but this time one was enough. Absolutely wonderful.
Jaime and Cercei had a weirdly beautiful ending in my opinion. Great song
Being engulfed in flames by Drogon while holding each other would have been better in my eyes.
@@Exodianecross1978 I kind of like the whole, their entire world crumbling down on top of them ending. Especially since they somewhat knew it was going to happen. But the engulfed by flames would have been interesting too.
@@Exodianecross1978 Take three steps to the left and they'd've survived. I like to think Jamie was holding Cersei there so she'd be crushed though.
@@josephmort4039 Maybe. But because Jaime knew that even if they could escape for the moment, he was certain that Danaerys would come after them, meaning a death could have been more painful. Maybe Jaime thought with the roof coming down that's better!
@@josephmort4039 that was just a lack of planning from the showrunners, if you look at the actual scene of them dying, the rocks are coming down everywhere around them, there would have been no safe place, but in the shot where Tyrion finds them they somehow forgot to cover all of the floor...
I vote for Sandor "The Hound" Clegane be next, who is with me?
I would eat a roasted chicken for that.
Call it “Fire Of rage”
Nathan Rounkles it’ll never get monetised if he’s true to the character because he’ll need to swear, probably need to tell someone to fuck off and he’ll probably need to say Sandor’s catchphrase “cunt”
I really don't know how this would turn out, because Sandor is a little bit ... special (swearing etc.), but hell yes, I want to hear this xD
Call it "A Mad Dog?"
I just imagine a scene of a musical theatre on this song, the two actors singing in the middle of the stage with the set of a city in fire in the backround, will be perfect.
I don’t know if I’m alone in this but Jamie has long since been my favourite character, I love him he’s the perfect balance of pitiful, noble, cruel and heroic to make him one of the most complex characters and in my eyes his end fits because it doesn’t matter whether or not we think he deserves redemption/redeemed himself (I personally think he redeemed himself) but he doesn’t think he’s worthy, he made that clear when he left Brienne, he’s hateful and, in his eyes, he’s done too much wrong to be worthy of redemption so he returns to his love for his final moments
I personally connect with Jamie the most as a character
If only the show had proved worthy of such great songs.
Would anyone believe me if I said by season 8, Jaime and Cersei were the only characters I cared for? EDit: Obviously Podrick, Brienne and Davos, and I liked Grey Worm and Missandei, but they were the only two CHARACTERS I cared for by this point.
Cersei stopped being character after season 6 though, more than half of her screentime was just her staring into the horizon .
Same.
This is brilliant. If only D&D could have been as good at their job as you...
They were good, but they got bored and just wanted to move on and put an end to it quickly. Understandable, but I can't agree with not doing their best until the job is done
@@Matakshaman HBO was willing to give more screentime, as I recall, so they could've passed writing and production over to someone else. They just didn't
@@Matakshaman Well, I'm not going to argue that point here; but even if they could have done well but just didn't, that still means they were bad at their job. The theoretical ability is much less relevant than the practical achievement.
Hello, another fan of D&D!
Never really thought you'd ever do a Cersei and Jaime song... I certainly wasn't expecting to love it as much as I did. :D
I translated this song into Russian, I hope you don't mind. Cannot stop listening to it XD Умолк набат позора, Я враг в глазах людей. Узрите кровь и мести рёв В улыбке злой моей. Корона, дети, клятва - Жестокий поворот. Вопроса три я задала, И знание гнетёт. Мне не счесть потерь, и мне не счесть обид. Ступени злости вниз ведут, туда мой путь лежит. Пусть сгорит весь мир вокруг нас, Заглушит ярость чести глас, Пусть волной затопит грех нас, Пускай всё рухнет В тот же час. Ничто не важно, Кроме нас. Все короли в могилах, Иду без клятв вперёд. Страхи ночь несёт, и слезы льва Падут на огонь и лёд. Влеченье безнадёжно, Я пью твой яд до дна. Я брошу всех, к тебе вернусь, В несчастьи до конца. Я не рыцарь чести, вину мне не изжить. Подводит клятва клятву, и уж нечего хранить. Пусть сгорит весь мир вокруг нас, Заглушит ярость чести глас, Пусть волной затопит грех нас, Пускай всё рухнет В тот же час. Ничто не важно, Кроме нас. Спалят владенья наши И имя проклянут. Чёрны вороны средь пепла и золы Про наш позор шепнут . Пусть сгорит весь мир вокруг нас, Заглушит ярость чести глас, Пусть волной затопит грех нас, Пускай всё рухнет В тот же час. Ничто не важно, Кроме нас.
очень красиво! спасибо большое за перевод :*
@@sokolylight3315 спасибо, рада, что перевод понравился)
Недурно-недурно
Сложно понять, зачем портить красивый текст русским переводом.
Ты хороший человек, спасибо тебе. Хотя я постоянно напевал «Пусть идёт все к черту, кроме нас». Для меня лучше звучит.
To (mis)quote Coldplay: "The first romantic ballad about incest in Miracle Of Sound's career"
*"My oaths betray each other until there is nothing left to keep"* Bro I really felt that
Showing Joffrey in the video, right on the word "poison", in a scene minutes before his death by poison is pretty damn clever.
I never really liked the relationship between Cersei and Jaime, but that song is powerful and so goosebumpy. Thank you! *puts it in endless repeat*
I had never seen GoT, but I love this song with all my heart! One of my favorite songs ever!
I never watched GoT, but I'm listening to this song ever since it came out, it's just that much gorgeous.
This is truly amazing. Watching Lancel Lannister attempt to stop the flames always gives me chills inside. I loved Margery Tyrell, and wish she didn't die, although, I think it came at the right time.
Damn, I don't even watch GoT and that refrain made me tear up.
2:38-2:56 This sums up Jaimie’s character perfectly.
Is it bad that the saddest part of the sack of King's Landing for me is all the history and art that got burnt?
Same, every time I see lovely buildings destroyed in films and shows I get so sad even though they aren't real
I just love the instrumental , and these voices 😍, Jaime together Forever ❤.
Oh man, there are so many hateful things I want to say to Cersei right now. Why would you test my restraint like this?
This really sounds like a perfect villain song.
What a tune and lyrics! The video clip even made me almost like the end of those two!
No One, When Winter Comes, Mother of Flames, When the Wolves Cry Out, Halfman's Song, Only Us... Game of Thrones had a fantastic run when I was in high school during its premiere and all your songs for the series were all just beautiful, Gavin! Much love to you, my friend 💖
I'm pretty sure I've listened to this song, at least, twice a day since I found it.
I don’t know why it took me so long to listen to this. I’ve seen so many of your songs, Ice and Fire, Dune, Batman, and they’ve all been great, but this tops them all.
This song is super addicting... whenever I "stumble" upon it again - in a playlist or some such - I have to loop it a few (many) times to get it out of my system again xD
I got goosebumps all over! This is truly a great song and fits perfect to the Lannister twins :)
