The amount of emotions that went over me in a span of more than 1 minute by just listening to this track again after god knows how long, it's an exceptional feeling and I thank you for creating this masterpiece
It's a crazy episode, one of many. I love the Lint Lady and her voice. Courage going through the water ride was such a nod to Disney theme park attractions (It's a Small World, Splash Mountain, etc); that connection hit me instantly. I didn't need patience, the whole thing was delightfully strange. The gorgeous, etheral music in the waterfall sequence was the cherry on the sundae.
@@randybrown6194 I do enjoy this song. I grew up watching Courage the Cowardly Dog. I don't remember what the final episode was. Was there ever a Courage the Cowardly Dog movie?
Ever since that episode, this musical piece always stuck with me. You wouldn't quite expect something so beautiful to be in the same episode as "IT'S DOC GERBILS WORRRRLD! IT'S DOC GERBILS WORRRRLD!!! IT'S DOC GERBILS WORRRRLD!!!"
For a kids show this song was really ominous. Like a song you would hear when walking through a devastated land scape. Or after coming out of hiding after your village or town is attacked.
This personally had to be one of my favorite episodes along with Dr. Zalost. This just felt like a strangely epic rescue episode, and this music just capped it.
Some people saw this episode when they were kids, while others like myself discovered it as an adult. Some folks found this music lovely and otherworldly and melancholy; some were frightened by it. I'll never forget the first time I saw the chase sequence. When this music began, I was taken aback; the scene became fantastic and strange and haunting. What a fascinating choice by the creative team who made CTCD. Kudos to Mr. Dilworth and company!
This song will always be hauntingly beautiful. I recommend listening to it with some high quality over ear headphones and just soak in the pure majesty of it.
I love how this masterpiece just comes out of nowhere. Expecting the typical high tension panic theme? Too bad! Enjoy the lamentations of a distraught woman!
I was 3-7 when I watched it and literally loved it even though it gave me nightmares. Looking back at it as an adult it still makes me feel disturbing.
I actually loved this episode as a kid, it made me laugh a lot and when this music started playing in the chase scene it blew my mind the first time and I didn't really mind it all the other times I watched the episode. Now I look at it and I just don't know why the fuck they put it there, we could ask the creator, he even has a RU-vid channel dedicated to art, but something tells me the answer would be very stupid.
At this point of my life as a young kid I truly realized the power of music. It encompasses me. Full of fear and wonder. I will never forget the feeling i had when I first heard this.
Beautiful!! Straight from my childhood!! This piece actually got me to join the choir when I was a kid. And here I am now working my A.A., B.A & M.A. Degree & in music & Education, because of this song. Thank you so much for uploading!! ^w^
As a kid, I use to think that those kids singing "IT'S DOC GERBIL'S WORLD" were kids doc Gerbil kidnapped and stole their voices but they were failed experiment. Now those choirs singing that song are those successful ones doc Gerbil made. This is why I find this episode to be the creepiest one.
@@sydneyray064 That original work, if anyone curious doesn't know, is a long piece and full of a lot of droning. The lovely soprano vocal work is sporadic in it.
A funny story: the first time I watched this episode I was at my cousin's house and he gave me earphones to watch this episode on his television (never understood why he gave me earphones, maybe the television was too loud). When this music started I seirously thought my cousin put this music on the earphones to joke with me and for a few seconds I was mad at him. Then I realized it was really from the episode. Good times.
@@tay92_ it's the same! Well, part of the same collection, anyway. There were several released audio files of these tunes and Rammstein used them in their song!
Now if only you had the tower of zalost first and second theme.... I love many of courage's soundtracks. Lucky to find this awesome piece, thank you so much bro!!!
i was young when that episode aired on CN, throughout all these years; I'm 22 i now, i to this very day remember this track and the unique emotions i felt with that track in that episode long ago.......pure nostalgia.
Whats that cute little piano tune played quite frequently, like when Muriel and courage are rocking in the chair? sorry for the lack in description, hope you can help!
Cartoon Network: John it is a cartoon about a Dog saving his family from creepy cartoon monsters. You sure we need to license and create some absolute bangers of soundtracks? these are expensive. John R Dilworth: ...Absolutely
To me it sounds like a little creature crying out for help as its stuck in a thick tar like substance and its raining. No one hears the cries or they just watch it suffer
Feels like a piece from a James Bond chase scene with Money Penny shot, and James is Frantically trying to lose the pursuers while trying to get her to a safe house...
That song didn't even need to fucking be in those scenes. They could've just put fucking "Crisis" there but they put this song anyway and it just fucking works. The way you don't hear sound of the jet ski's engine or the roaring sound of the vacuum motor, all you hear is this soft, melodic sound of a woman voice as you watch Courage trying is damndest to save Muriel and Eustace from some deranged bitch rodent, and as Gerbil is falling to his demise, you ear the low, dark, almost eerie tone of the bass. Fucking brilliant. I love this show.
This is literally just a series of vocal samples I just realized. Rammstein has used some of these in their songs like Sonne and Ich Will. Well put together, but ultimately it was more or less just pre-existing sound files copied and pasted together.
@@fatguygetsmad6954 yeah, it's funny, I looked it up and the samples used are from "Spectrasonics Virtual Instruments". Look up Spectrasonics Symphony of Voices Lamentings.
There's no name for this ? Things without names are so hard to find lol. This is as long as the piece goes right? Felt like there would be more but up until running into this vid, my travel have neared no fruit
