It feels like being seven years old and getting in trouble and getting your 3ds taken away. You didn't do anything that bad, and you'll have it back tomorrow. You're still a child and life is still happy and without lots of stress. But you still just feel wrong. You feel bad
Fun fact: the original version on the soundtrack uses notes that are in between any note on a piano called half-tones, and when added in the right way, can make a song unbelievably nostalgic, sad and empty, or amazingly happy and anticipatory
there’s a word only in portuguese that perfectly translates this feeling, saudade. it’s a mix of melancholy, the feeling of missing someone or something, sadness and resolve.
This song gives such a nostalgic vibe.... Its like sitting in a grassy field and all your favorite childhood show characters are skipping past on both sides of you
"Mom what is this song?" "it's called Fallen Down Hun." "cool! what is the song about?" "about....about...A human child that fallen down and choose which route, Neutral, Genocide or Pacifist?" "what did the human choose?" "they...
"They chose to be kind and merciful" the mother began as she continued her playing " sparing all that came into their path and making many allies along the way as they went to find a way home" the child leaned in closer as the story went on "it was hard however the little human had so much determination to make everything right with this world that they persevered regardless of the challenges!" "In the end, they met the king of the underground and by the end of the fight they even managed to spare someone who was thought to be long gone and forgotten." The music and story began to come to an end as the mother finished " with the help of all of the close friends they had made through their journey in the underground, the human worked with them all and the barrier eventually broke letting them live up in the sun and sky as humans and monsters once did all those years ago" the mother smiled down at her child as they looked up with wonder at the marvelous story and song they had just heard. "Wow mom! Thats awesome!" They got up and struck a strong pose "I hope to be just like that human who fell down and saved everyone! I'll always do my best to be merciful to other to!" Giggling together the mother said how she thought that was a great idea and now, filled with determination, the child was kind and merciful to all those they met just as the human child was to those monster all those years ago :)
@@Double_Ace-nm8me i was talking about the dream smp but yeah, now there's actually more people complaining about the dream smp comments than dream smp comments themselves lmao
* what a terrible creature, torturing such a poor, innocent youth * ah, do not be afraid my child * I am TORIEL, caretaker of the RUINS * I pass through this place everyday to see if anyone has fallen down * you are the first human to come down here in a long time * come! * y-you really hate me that much? * I know now who I was protecting keeping you here * Not you.. * but them.. * ha.. ha..
I dont care what fandom you all are from, i just want to appreciate how great this song is. It feels like the perfect image of the final moments of death. Melancholic, yet you are satisfied with what you have done and accept your death. Your life's ups and down play as the credits roll with people you love, hate, and people you didnt even know existed. I want to cry and smile at the same time. Its saddening but produces a lot of dopmaine to keep you hooked. I also like how the audio isnt perfect, it reflects the true nature of life: imperfect. Humans are always looking for more, if we had accomplished everything, gained control of the universe, discovered every piece of science there is, it would eventually start to drive us to madness, an endless routine of a perfect life, eventually splitting of to multiple species, and restarting the cycle of imperfection. Even down to the time span of a single minute, your brain is rushing with hundreds of emotions at once, imperfect. Imperfection and acceptance is this song, as Bob Ross said: "We need to be a little sad sometimes so we know when the good times come", and this song, is the perfect representation of happiness and sadness in unision, bittersweet, as some would say
@@EleIsEpic I forgot about this comment, it looks like my 14yo self tried to be edgy by incorporating something completely irrelevant into my comment and then using that as the running theme through the whole comment for literally no reason
whether it's ":)" ":]" or "=)", let us all agree, the song makes us cry anyway edit: glad to see there are still people watching this 10 months later! wasnt expecting to find a reply by me
This reminds me of moving out of your childhood home and neighborhood, then returning years later (end of senior year?) and walking through your old life around sunset. Seeing your old bedroom, old front porch, the street, the park, the place you used to know so well. But things are different, and you are a little older now, and the hill you were afraid of riding your bike down really isn’t that big at all, is it?
The last part reminds me of if you go back to Toriel’s house after the Asriel battle and sleep in your bed, the text says something along the lines of “it’s strange, but this bed... it feels entirely too small for you now...”
@@egoisticqueer Yeah that's why with his new song he is using for lore he has made a big deal not to spam the comments with "oh who's here from Ranboo!?" Like we did with fallen down.
There's something funny about there being more comments worrying about DSMP fans invading the comments than there are actual comments about the Dream SMP.
This summons 5 type of people... 1- Ranboo fans 2- I don't understand why im here 3- u n d e r t a l e 4- all of them 5th one...well uhh we don't talk about them...
This feels like the concept of an old abandoned school with washed-out green wallpaper that an old student of the school found again and came back to their old classroom to find everything just like it used to be, with some wear and mold and they found a bunch of their old notebooks
This sounds like when you're sitting in your room at night, and your light is on. You look out of the window, and you can see nothing but the reflection of your room against an empty blackness. And yet, you feel safe. You have all you need in here. This may be all that you have, but perhaps that's alright. A sense of comfortable isolation. You're okay alone.
this sounds like walking back into your childhood home and finding out that it had been abandoned and run-down. all of your old things are there, all of the pictures, everything. the food in the pantry has rotted, and so has the food in the fridge. the tv doesnt even turn on anymore. it was so peaceful, how did it turn out like this?
This specific video smells like those old books you can find with those yellow, papery pages. It feels like being a child running through the park grass or playground, introducing your new friend you made to your school friends. It looks like a vibrant yet dull sunset as the sun sets behind the hill in the horizon as the stars start coming into view
haha this blew the fuck up. I'm so glad you all enjoyed :) i'd like to thank...*checks notes* rnaboob my betrothed?? i hope my piano never gets tuned but at the same time, it will constantly get more and more out of tune. alas, a conundrum. I also wanted to say that no matter how you got here, music is wonderful in that it can bring us all together. it brings me so much joy that new people and new ideas and new projects can breathe new life into old ones. i can't say I would've had the bravery to finally learn this and post it had it not been for its recent "revival". music, and songs, can mean whatever the hell you want them to mean. one's man's dance club song is another man's long road trip song. I'm just absolutely tickled that so many people found this and enjoyed it
I play on a 80 year old family heirloom piano it’s not tuned but the sound isn’t half bad it’s just comforting it’s still in pretty good condition too :)
holy shit its really been that long?? it doesnt feel like its actually been such a big chunk of my life. and i guess i never really left that undertale phase, deltarune has corrupted my brain
i feel young. ive been in this (and deltarunes) fandom for what, a month now? im not even a proper teenager yet. ive never looked forward to getting deep into a fandom like i will with this one.
What I like about this song is that it delivers the feeling of *an* ending. Not *the* end, but one of the many small endings we all face along the way. Chapters of our lives end, and it hurts, sometimes a lot. But you keep going. That’s what the second movement portrays. It’s not exactly “hopes and dreams,” you’re still in the minor key, you’re still feeling pain. But the next chapter has already begun, it’s waiting for you. You just have to keep living and eventually you’ll see it.
Pit Pat. Pit Pat. The rain pounds on the glass above your head. Pit Pat. Pit Pat. The glass above your head has disappeared. Bonk. You are covered in water. But, hey. That’s fine. Bonk. (:
Fallen Down is absolutely something you would hear faintly playing down the hallway of an abandoned school, echoing from an old music practice room where the broken piano has sat, decaying over time. Haunting yet still chillingly beautiful.
As I walk into my old abandoned school, everything was still the same after 37 years. The lockers, the graffiti that my classmates wrote that my teachers couldn't get rid off. I walk to my old classroom. I still remember all the things that happened in this classroom, the good times... As I was staring at the classroom, I heard a faint sound echoing in the hallways, a piano I think. I went down the hallway and I realized the sound was coming from the practice room where my late friend always played all the instruments. The door was open, as I looked inside the room, no one was there but the keys of the piano were moving then they suddenly stopped. A figure formed from the seat and I thought it was demon or another spirit, but it was my late friend, he looked back and smiled at me as he disappeared. (Yes I just wrote this on the spot)
@@angelalen1615 bro you hit me in the feels. Also it's even trippier having spent a lot of time as a "hater" and then actually trying it for once only to enjoy it, years after everyone else already did
@@whiteface513abandonedchann8 fr i was so unhappy as a kid when i was afraid of being "cringe" but im a 16 year old crying over undertale rn and i could not be happier about it. life is so much more beautiful when you stop worrying and learn to love things
I remember lying down on the hammock my parents set up at their balcony. The sun was still bright that afternoon so I had to place my arm over my head to shield my eyes. The colors of leaves from the coconut tree next to our house looked beautiful. So did the sunlight that reflected from it. I remember watching my neighbors play basketball at the back window of our house. My parents never let me go out so I was never one to participate in any sport. Sucks how I only realized how beautiful that house was, now that I’ve moved to a new country. That house was a big part of my childhood. My parents told me they moved there just a few days before I was born. I miss my home. And I’m glad I had time to admire the tiniest details from it before saying goodbye.
Just like you. Who's reading this. You, like me might be having a rough Time. But we're amazing in our own ways, just like this piano. It's slightly out of tune and worn out, but that adds to its charm.
*_Fear Ending:_* "You know you've escaped, but they're still on the hunt for you." "It's only a matter of time until they start getting closer and closer to you." "You can't head back, that's the only way that you're gonna get killed."
This game has been such a comfort for me in times of need I remember being around 12 when it came out and being completely obsessed and now at 16 , when I'm feeling down I still find comfort in the characters and story of this fantastic came thank you Toby fox
Toriel is my comfort character I feel safe and calm every time I think about sitting in her lap in a lounge chair by the fireplace as she reads me a bedtime story like Im a little kid again It’s one of the most touching things for me So this is really special
^-^ I've been daydreaming about being Nightmare's friend. He's just R E L A T A B L E so it's more likely I'll listen to him telling me what I already know that I gotta do (like 'stop beating yourself up' or something lie that). Just thought I'd share.
Honestly I want to give goat momma a bug hug rn if she existed 😭 I'm so happy I didn't kill her on my first ever playthru cuz I think she's like the most accidentally killed boss in the game, like- It breaks my heart to see people's reactions when they weren't really aiming to kill her aAAAAa-
Why can't we just welcome other fandoms with open arms? The mcyt fandom probably think we're bad for hating on them. It's giving our fandom a bad reputation
as a dsmp fan + undertale fan, i can get why some people would be upset about comments relating to ranboo, but i don’t think that anger is a good reaction. especially when the comment itself is one in 100 others that are actually talking about the song :]
I’m not actively being angry and commenting “dsmp GET OUT PLEASE1!1!!1!”, I’m actually a fan of mcyt, but just kinda annoyed that I’m just seeing replies spamming “:)” when the comment was referencing undertale
@@hyphenss6526 I see a lot of Undertale related comments - the only thing I see related to Ranboo are people complaining. Its sad - also Undertale has like 100 other songs that people can comment on. This song wasn't even popular
Yeah I first found out the song from Ranboo. Ik some undertale fans will be annoyed because Mcyt fans don't understand the real meaning and stuff like that but people will have their own interpretation of a song, whether it be the original meaning, or something personal to them. While it is sometimes really annoying, we shouldnt gatekeep because at the end of the day, its a great song and it even led me to becoming an undertale fan aswell :]
I'm all right if they talk about the SMP. My problem is scrolling through the comments and seeing ":)" or ":) If you know you know" or "ranboo theme song!" We get it. A streamer used this in a video. Now either talk in a meaningful way or just enjoy the music
I recently got a new piano to replace my 100-year-old, falling apart piano that I was emotionally attached to lmao. It's comforting hearing a piano that sounds like what mine used to sound like.
it’s blurry...you see a mix of gold and pale purple... you don’t recognize this place...do you? have you been here before? it feels familiar it feels like.... home?
I've never played Undertale, nor do I truly understand it, but the soundtrack is amazing and, even when I have no reason to be nostalgic over this, it still gives those kinds of vibes. Nicely played, and the out of tune piano makes it even better :]
@@bluelemonade557 I have watched a playthrough of it, so I generally understand it, but i do want to play is myself someday and try a different route than the one I watched
This song is just the embodiment of nostalgia. It just gives off the vibes of something you want to return to, but even if you're literally there again you know that you can't really return back there.
This video made me realize that I'll never get to experience Undertale for the first time again. That first playthrough was so... magical for me. I'm nostalgic for that time in my life purely because of how much this game meant to me. I miss you, goat mom ;-;
Hello! How are you all? If anyone needs someone to listen, someone to talk to, or a friend. I am here to talk, listen, and be a friend. I hope you all are safe and well.

I want you to know that you are incredible and are capable of wonders. What matters is your inside, not your exterior. Love yourself and cherish yourself. Words cannot explain how astonishing you are. You deserve care, love, and happiness, don't let anything make you feel otherwise. You may or you may not think that you are a failure but you are not, we are humans and we are bound to make mistakes so failures will come but that will give you the prize of what you have learned. Even if it may be a very small prize, it is very significant and important because you are amazing and deserving to learn and grow just as everyone else is. Please have appropriate action for anything that you know is wrong. Try and find professional or trusted help. Anything that seems bad or wrong in your life right now will get better. Please don't do what is wrong, fighting back and harming others will not solve the problem. Please understand that and do the good thing. It will one day come back to you. The people in the world are so much more than what we know about them, not everyone opens up about the beautiful things and acts they have witnessed, not all those amazing doings are acknowledged. There is more to people than it seems. Please understand that and know that. If you feel like no one cares about you, know that I care about you. Keep your head up high and never give up! Together, we can be a better community! Stay safe, healthy, happy, kind, understanding, positive and strong!
Okay okay but like, I can hear and vison this. Toriel Playing this song. Chara and Asriel playing around, dancing, or even colouring pages together. Asgore watching them all from a chair, hell maybe even Sans and his brother watching. Soon the good memories fade, syncing with the songs faded end. It all stops, air becomes gloomy all around you, the person playing the game, remembering that not all great things last. Everything has to come to an end one point or another. With the song fresh into your memory, old and worn from possibly the recorder being old. You walk out of the beloved home to explore, taking chara with you in a form of a spirit.
Imagine just: 6 years after Undertale, Frisk alone decided to return to the Underground by falling again from Mt Ebott. After that they go right into the RUINS to re-discover what they left and when they met Toriel, Flowey and all the Monsters. After a moment, arrived at the Home, in ruins because nobody was there for a while, they go to the mirror, dusty, but no matter what happened to them, what happened to this house after 6 years without anyone: * Despite everything, it’s still you. And then the music starts while the camera zoom out of the House and escape at the Surface with the sunset.. Edit: I just corrected some things and added some details to make the lecture easier :)
I'm gonna add onto this story because I can Frisk turns their head, and looks to where the music is coming from. They curiously start walking towards it, with the music slowly getting louder. They eventually hear it coming from Toriel's old room, and they put their hand on the door knob. They go to walk inside, but something stops them in their tracks. A light shines on Toriel's old piano, and they see someone near their age wearing a yellow and green striped shirt, with brown, shoulder length hair. Frisk can't do anything but just stare in awe and listen to the mysterious person play. When the stranger eventually gets to the end of the song, they shut the piano, and turn their head to look at Frisk. The person's red glowing eyes stare into Frisk's as they smile. Frisk can't help but smile back. "Thank you," the stranger says. They then close their eyes as fades away. Was it all a dream?
This reminds me of a dream I had, my then crush was walking me through this beautiful pathway surrounded by autumn trees, saying she wanted to show me something, and that she had fallen in love with it ever since she saw it. As we were walking, I saw all my friends from over the years talking and having fun. It was such a beautiful dream :}
This is how we all feel after visiting Toriel again after completing True Pacifist after a long time. It's warm, but also gloomy. Undertale isn't a game, it's an experience, everyone.
I love the dsmp talk and the undertale talk. In all honesty the smp has a interesting story line and undertale is a wonderful game. I don’t mind sharing a song for both fandoms, because at the end of the day, I can always find out who originally made Fallen Down and it’s origin if I was curious enough.
@@kingcrab2678 When I listen to this song it feels really nostalgic, that kind of reminds me of minecraft because its songs are really nostalgic aswell. Also dont you think both these fandom songs have songs that make you lowkey sad.
As a dream smp and undertale fan, I apologize on behalf of the dream smp fans about the Ranboo fans invading this song. And I apologize on behalf of undertale fans getting so offended by other people finding this from different things.
**You have regrets on what you did, you try to close your eyes and wake up from the nightmare you have created. You close your eyes in hope that when they open you will find your friends waiting** **...** **But nobody came**
This makes me so fckin' happy because my piano is old (as in it was my great grandmother's piano) and slightly out of tune and there's nothing we can do about it anymore. It makes me happy, really happy.
@@user-db4lk7yg3o because even when we tune it- it has a really harsh Echo? And the key is slightly out of tune? No matter what we’ve done. And we can’t really Afford to Rebuild it.
as an og undertale fan that's been in the fandom since the release, it's so disheartening that people value their "i was here first!" card over the game getting attention again. i'm happy ranboo is bringing more and more people here. if you came here from him, welcome! :D
This song got me through a pretty dark time in my life. I remember when I wanted to escape I would just play this song over and over until I felt better. There’s something special about that that other songs just don’t have
@@Levi-yk7he Oh, one hundred percent. I haven't been keeping up with dream SMP lately cause I was replaying undertale and got the urge to listen to this song XD
* After a long time, you went back down there . . * Toriel’s house, right? * it’s dusty. * You look around, and check toriel’s room. * You checked the desk . . Puns. * You chuckled, all the memories came back, it feels like the past. * Except. * *it’s too late.*
This is the song that plays in my head when a protagonist looks back on everything that has happened, and learns to let go, embracing what is ahead. It's a beautiful feeling.
Thank you for having no dream ranboo crap for hashtags, so both fandoms can enjoy instead of Undertale being forgotten and only the people who knew it and then stopped likening it and then only 3/7 of the fandom still posts or enjoys it
this feels like an old grandma trying to take care of you she doesnt have much yet tries to help you in any way possible, making sure you're successful in life.
bro 2:14 with the little thing the song does oh my god the nostalgia bro as much as i was cringe back then i was so happy, i wish i could express my love for things without being self conscious. ima fuckin say it, i miss undertale bro i miss being in love with the game dude i miss all that shit dude
that part hit me straight in the feels, imagining toriel guiding you in the ruins and giving you a piece of butterscotch pie. A sweet melody that matches her personality
Many of us have went through an "undertale phase". We were cringe, but it taught us to accept more story driven games and the like. It removed this "haha bad game 2d pixel poop lmfaooooo" in me
*You walk up to an old, dusty mirror. *You wiped off the dust. *The reflection stares back at you. *... ... ... *despite everything, it's still- : ) Hello, partner.
I remember watching gameplay and finally getting a chance to play a little when I would go to those places to pay to play games on a PC or console it was so exciting and comforting it made me feel safe just like how I heard the music for the first time when I played minecraft it filled me with joy and determination
It sounds like hugging someone wrapped in a grey knitted blanket and both of you are using hugging as an excuse to hide your emotions, so you are both crying, but the other can't see you.
Sun so bright, sky so blue Everyone wish they could be out there soon. Kids that are in kindergarden doing their work,some have trouble and teachers are there to help. Teachers out in the hall, having light chats as kids go play in the sunny day. some parents stay home for the day enjoying the cup of coffee they just made. while other Parents at work looking out the window thinking how pretty the sky is. The sun so bright, the sky so blue, and the clouds, white and fluffy too. It's warm out but the wind lightly cools off anyone outside. Kids just in kindergarden feel dread but don't understand why. Teachers go silent in the halls as if they wait, but what for? Parents at home don't want to be home, they feel something. While parents at work want to be home, They see something. It's a bit warm outside but no one complains, they're to busy trying to go away. Kids just in kindergarden hold each other in fear, while teachers try and keep everyone calm from what's out there in dispare. Teachers in the halls aren't no more, but are bringing their students down under for definite safety. Parents at home not home anymore, but are screaming in on the road with a million others. trying to get away from the big scary thing, trying to come out. Parents at work calling to know if their kids are gonna be alright. "tell'em I love them, alright?" Sun so bright,sky so blue But no one noticed Isn't that rude?
listening to this while sitting on a grass field, staring into nothingness and letting all your past memories run by you like a movie really hits hard...
I learned this song on the piano a few days ago, I knew it was an undertale song but I primarily knew it from ranboo, I decided to start an undertale play through today (I’ve been wanting to for a while so I was super excited) and let me tell you I hardly get emotional at media, but this song had me tearing up and I’d barely been playing the game for an hour, seriously after the fight with toriel and this song started playing I already felt like crying, like oh my gosh I love how this song can bring so much emotion even in completely different contexts!
@@Frizou he's a streamer! he's popular for his minecraft content though now he usually plays horror games, but in his minecraft content he had a story and would use this song :)
"fallen down into the deep dark hole full of monsters. But it's a paradise nobody will ever see." ~ Hololive, Undertale, SCP Foundation, DC fans, Alice In Wonderland, whatever else fits cuz my brain is smol
This is like odd familiarity mixed with an uncomfortable reminiscence. Like you know you’ve been here before, and you remember the place, but you don’t know when you were there, or what you were there for.
Whether it's from sadness, joy, nostalgia, and/or empathy, we can all agree that this causes something to be caught in our eyes, and that "something" would be tears.
This song is so nostalgic for me. It brings me back to when I could go to school stress free and talk all I wanted about undertale to my friends and we would make stupid jokes and laugh and then I'd go home and watch undertale comic dubs on the tv in my room and listen to the music on my heart locket I got for Christmas, I wish I could go back. Now all my old friends are gone and I just can't find the spark and love for much of anything anymore. I feel so horrible all the time and no matter what I do to feel happy it's only ever a temporary solution and I always go back to feeling like crap. I just want to turn back time to when I was watch dantdms live streams of him playing the game and I would sit and watch them In awe for hours and nothing else mattered. All my problems would disappear and I would be there with the characters and just be happy. Why can't I be like that anymore, or, was really always like this to begin with?
Hey random person on the internet, i just wanted to pop in and tell you that you're never alone. you may never see this comment or even may ignore it, but things will get better if you stick through it. the sun will shine again, and you will be able to breathe with the weight off of your chest and find that happy place again :) "take care of yourself kid. 'cause someone really cares about you."
hey! im sorry about that. when smash mouth said "the years start coming and they don't stop coming" they weren't kidding huh. but in all seriousness, I genuinely hope things get better for you. the fact that you had something to come home and comfort you, it means a lot. sometimes new things come and stick, and sometimes they don't. and oftentimes they don't mean the same. but each new day means new life and new experiences for you. i hope that those new things bring joy into your life and I hope they're even better. i am but a humble being possibly miles from you, but I hope you stick around for those
