Comin' Are the Nein (Critical Role Fan Song) 

I did the same. Coming again as I'm listening to the episodes. Can't wait and I hope this somehow at least gets referenced

This needs to be the official theme song!

I am so excited, TLOVM is great already it gives me tons of faith for the Mighty Nein series. Also this song is amazing, I mean the piano and bells at the end... 😭

im sooo excited !!!!

Okay, this song has to be included in that show somehow.

Love this verse for Essek

And the audience will SING!

@@leekestner1554 With accompanied claps and footstomps!

This NEEDS to happen!

To be perfect though for an intro it now needs one more verse including Essek for when Matt takes the stage.

How you know

@@revolutionarydragon1123 Was watching the proposal video with Marisha he posted. Under that was a playlist of that account's favorite videos. At the time this was the newest favorite so it was first. ru-vid.com/group/FL4fZokaK56L3L2LkBECCeLg

@@revolutionarydragon1123 You can see his list. ru-vid.com/group/FL4fZokaK56L3L2LkBECCeLg

@@revolutionarydragon1123 he has a youtube channel that has a favorite playlist and this video is a part of that

@@chronics23 that awesome

Yeah, have me chills

@@DesOttsel He is our god, long may he reign. *Fastforward to yesterday* I changed my mind oh gods run run run

That little tinkle of "Dirge of Mollymauk Tealeaf" was perfection.

Lucien, not Molly. Molly was never like that

I think Molly's part is actually Lucien's. it's the whole "Now returns as a menace to his friends bereft" part.

Kingsley the cutthroat, long may he reign

@@ThatGuy-zh7jl Critical Role Season 3: Episode 65ish will introduce Plank King Tealeaf, Lord of the Revelry and Master of Darktow.

@@TheDarkstormy That was my first thought when Kingsly took off for Darktow "Oh, so we know who the next Plank King will be."

@@nuru666 Fjord: well at least were unbanned? That or just created a massive problem for the rest of the world

Yep

Please don't misinterpret what follows, but: "I'm at half-mast. I NEED to hear this!"

I thought the same thing. Campaign 3 years in the future this is a bards song in some tavern they end up in. Or bar chant/ drinking song....🤯

@@VulcanWolf I heard Alucard in there

@@u821r I think they need his permission for that, but it would be so awesome if they could somehow incorporate fan-made content into live campaigns!

Ngl While watching the finale I was waiting for this, or something similar, to happen A bit disappointed that it didn't, but it's *such* a cool cencept!

to villians they bring free. to the people they bring hope. to politicians, they bring paperwork

good comment. Yes, I could see this being sung some years into the future as a retelling of their tales.

@@joeleckel5139 Actually, thinking about it, do you know who I imagine singing this song? Someone who is down and desperate. Abused and oppressed. Someone who really needs a bit of intervention. Someone to wander into town one day and leave it better than they found.

@@user-ew9sq5iw5w Why you gotta punch me in the gut like that?

@@user-ew9sq5iw5w lol, that would be some sort of ending. The MN save the land but die in the process. An old friend is the only one to survive. What the MN did very few would ever know - it happened in the Astral Sea vs. a terror that almost all were unaware existed. But this old friend, he was there. He saw their sacrifice. On his return to the material plane he once again joins a circus and travels from town to town, but this time telling the tale of the MN and singing this song, birthing the legend of the MN.

Yeah, you hit the nail on the head. I've heard people talk about wanting an animated series for the 9 like with Vox Machina (I'm hoping for one too someday), but I've never thought that "The Legend of the Mighty Nein" sounded right. Vox Machina were very much legends. They were high profile and had publicly powerful connections. They had a keep in the capital/largest city of the continent gifted to them by its king and eventually a castle in another major city. They were _known._ Despite all that the 9 have done for both Xhorhas and the Empire (and the world), their actions have gone mostly unrecognized by the masses. And they like it that way for the most part. Only those that have come into contact with them on their adventures know about _a fraction_ of their deeds. They are very much a grassroots type of group and anonymity suits them just fine. Whereas Vox Machina were larger than life figures (or at least became them), The Mighty Nein embody stories told on the wind, whispered in the dark, with the common folk wondering how much of it is true and how much is embellished (spoilers, it's all true). They're a folk tale cobbled together by everyone they've ever met that will get passed down through generations by word of mouth. That's why if we ever get an animated series for campaign two, "The Tales of the Mighty Nein" would be a good name for it.

the second is kree

The others were killed to quick to dislike

I dare say you spoke too quickly (ep 138)

Cree is the second dislike. ... Was, at least.

Are we sure that Lucien is the one whos scared shitless?

Eyes never shut creeps me out

I got actual chills when Molly's line came up.

@@razgriz2276 same when watching last vid on tube of crit rol

That was Mollys line?!!?? I am a bit late, Ep 8 so far ^^'

@@xinahliaofthefeywild8985 You will understand later... much later

I had the same thought!

It is indeed a workers song sung to the swing of hammers, picks, and hoes or even the stroke of oars. All those that labor under oppression.

big brane time

I know it’s great! The pairings are also perfect. Fjord and Beau, who made the best of a bad situation. Caduceus and Jester, who left their own little world as clerics. Caleb and Yasha, both with literally the same background and also the extreme protectiveness that comes with hurting those they loved, and Nott/Veth and Molly, the two who have been reborn multiple times.

I feel like this is a psychology test. Which way did you hear it at first? If it was a statement, you're probably a kind hearted person wanting to defend the land from evil. If you read it as a question/threat well....Cad will say some nice words at your funeral.

Honestly I hear this towards the end, the meaning of "fear for your life" changing from declaration to warning- then kinda mixing at the very end.

I heard it as “they’ll save you if you’re a good person who is in danger, but be worried if you want your life to stay normal.”

We don't deserve it but the nein do 😃

I mean, I'm no critic, but... What Silver said.

Cry all you need, my friend

Haha it makes me so happy when people catch these things

Oh that would be funny in like campaign 7 or something if this was a hymn in wildemount

Just making sure I'm not missing anything, was the other one the Uk'otoa sea shanty CR posted? :)

@@Pingviinimursu I just heard Allfield's Kin today, and now this.

Best compliment

Oh yeah quite a few different meanings to a few lines in the son now bc of 140!

Or at least used for and episode or two during this Cognoza showdown

I hope so, but they’d have to get the writer’s permission to show it on the show

Great idea and I would love to see it!!

Lucky for you it is on spotify! If you look up either my name or the song name it should come up

Every time someone compares me to Avi it makes my day haha

@@ChaseNoseworthy well freaking deserved. I would love to collab with you in some way, shape or form

Not only have I immediately added this to my Spotify playlist, but I can't stop listening to it.

Enjoy the $0.99 due to my stubborn refusal to pay Amazon another subscription just to listen to free music. I instantly looked for it on Amazon Music and it was behind Unlimited wall, so I instantly went to purchase the song. This song is worth every penny.

1.5 speed is dope

You ever think about doing a rendition including the honorary members of the Nein (Calianna, Keg, Nila, Twiggy, and Pumat)

This is lovely, I’m so glad my song could provide a moment like that for you and your son!

I FORGOT TO COMPLIMENT YOUR VOICE TOO AAAAHHH
