Liliana by Dob the Half-Orc Bard (Oxventure: Bride or Die) 

Andy pointing out Katie Pearlhead has the same syllables always gets me

My favourite part of this whole bit is that Luke had no idea how the song was used. He was just warned to have a song prepared and this is how it turned out

I'm waiting for the day that Dob fulfils his destiny as a true bard, and cheeses the entire epic Lilliana bossfight by attempting to seduce her and rolling a nat20.

I once saw a Tumblr post on Katie's perspective. Basically, she was (and is) full-on planning on killing him and taking the inheritance. He meant absolutely nothing to her, he was just something to be thrown away after he has outlived his use. She never ever loved him for one single second. But... Knowing he never loved her _either,_ caused her more pain than anything she ever experienced.

I will eternally love that both of the girls are just vibing along while Andy and Mike are watching on with varying level of horror

Jane/Prudences' completely chill"were gonna get our heads chopped off is ICONIC

That zoom in on Prudence on "ambition shouldn't be seen as a flaw." 😆

You won't get golden content like THIS from Critical Role!

What really makes this for me, the cherry on top of the bow is Corazon going "Okay, I'm going to start making my way towards the door..." before the song is even finished. He is not sticking around to find out, and I respect it.

The blank look of mental trauma on Johnny's face kills me every time I rewatch this. Thank you so much for making this incredibly replayable video.

I'm so glad you've taken this clip bc tbh I will be rewatching the episode a billion times, but there's smth so insanely funny about that first "liliana" that gets me every freaking time and I've rewatched this video like 10 times already lmfao

I absolutely loved this moment and I'm so glad they did it live. I love how Luke and Johnny have expanded on what was initially a joke about Dob trying to seduce the antagonist as bards as stereotypically expected to do and then it blossomed into this genuinely very sweet and funny dimension to Dob's character, and how that culminates in him pouring out his heart in this way!

The look of pure unbridled joy on Ellen's face gives me life.

This song so needed to be animated. Even all the interrupting bits.

Lyrics: Liliana, Listen to me, Stop this madness, Put down that kidney! (yeah!) Oh, Liliana, Oh can't you see! Your iron grip on the land of G'eth Has got a hold on me... And I know, That ambition shouldn't be seen as a flaw; And who hasn't thought about cloning an army of Egberts? You wanna have it all But one look from you, And they'd subjugate everything in their path... But that's nothing to the way you've subjugated my heart 💓 [Instrumental] Liliana, Please see reason; Look at my strong friends And the bosses they're cheesing! And I know We can find common ground - Maybe over coffee? 😚 I could show you the skeletons I've found! We could compare armies, We could make them fight and we could sing and laugh and play; I know this doesn't have to end in a violent sort of way... But if you go to war with us then I don't know where this ends... Because I might feel differently if you killed my friends... LILIANAAAAAA!

I know we know that Johnny warned Luke that he was going to want to polish up that song for this adventure before they asked them to sing something on a live convention stage but do we know how much of the Dob and Katie Pearlhead plotline Luke and Johnny discussed between each other outside of the game outside of that? Starting with "Who's idea was it that when Dob returned to the party he and Katie Pearlhead would be engaged?"

I’m here to drown my feelings

The scream I scrupt when he came out with that first name 😂

I just love how much Ellen gets into it, Luke and her are a perfect duo haha

I love how Johny is just shellshocked :D

I really want Dob and Liliana to be a thing, even for a moment

It's been almost a year and I've listened to this more times than I ever would have anticipated

I'm sure there is a maximum number of times it's possible to rewatch this. Haven't found it yet, though.

Best song in the series.

We know that liliana is watching everything they do... so is it canon that she heard this song?

@Sam Walker, finding this in my recs just made my day. You're the real mvp for uploading this.

So the fact that corazon pointed out dob could have easily substituted Liliana for Katie pearlhead and it still would've fit xD

I want him to sing this to Liliana so she can respond by casting a spell to destroy his lute

Anyone else coming back to this after the final season?

Thanks for isolating this, I like the editing you did alongside it

Used this recently for a karaoke party I was at cause I've got it totally memorized ,😂😂😂

Poor Johnny, desperately trying to process what is happening… 😂 Great subtitles btw! Good job!

Thank you I've added this to my work playlist and whenever it comes on I just laugh

Someone from our community sent me some chords he came up with, I altered a bit … and now I can play and sing the whole song on ukulele!!! 😄 (badly though lol)

That this moment truly was not scripted and just happened to work out perfectly makes it even more hilarious and great.

I love this part of the episode! I'm so glad i found this

This is just perfect ❤️ thank you so much for this clip!

janes reactions really elevate this

Love this song and glad to finally have it on its own ready for the endless future listens 😂 (As a side note if you take requests would you do the ballad of Corazon as well?)

I love this song so much, need it in an album

how long did Luke have this one ready? Johnny just looking completely confused about what's happening is great too.

Genuinely one of my favourite ox moments ♡

This song makes me genuinly happy every time I hear it. 😄

Apparently Luke had been told, before the live show, to make a song for some point in the campaign…

I don’t think Corazon understood the whole head chopping thing lol
