Poison (Lyric video) | Hazbin Hotel | Prime Video 

Angel’s voice breaking at the end gave me chills

I love how the more he sings, the more his voice cracks. You can feel the emotion, everything he's feeling. Absolutely beautiful.

Can we all collectively agree that the song is, like, a hundred times more devastating when it’s in context? 😢😢

Just came back to this after watching episode 4 and holy s#*t when you’ve seen the context it becomes infinitely more heartbreaking. Also the person who did the choreography for Angel are extremely talented

I don't know why, but "What's the worst part of this hell? I can only blame myself" hit me hard.

The sound of Angel's voice at the end is HEARTBREAKING!! Blake has done such an astounding job of balancing the pop performance, the character voice, and the emotion!

Episode 4 adds all the context and makes it so much more sad

The change from “Every night I’m living like there’s no tomorrow” to “Wish I had something to live for tomorrow” was beautiful and emotional songwriting

I love how this song is structured like a good trip. Initially, Angel’s really getting into the swing of things and seems to almost accept his own suffering. But then he comes down and realises just how deep the hole he’s buried himself in is. It’s heartbreaking stuff. Val has got his claws in deep, but I think escape is still possible

The addict music video line "There's another rush of poison flowing into my veins" And the line "Addicted to this feelin" Love it!

I just watched this episode and it's fantastic. Michael Kovach is an amazing voice actor for Angel Dust and Blake Roman is also an amazing voice actor for Angel Dust. I thought no one could fill the role like Michael, but they bloody did it. How does this show keep finding such talented people.

I actually love the change in the last chorus because it almost implies that his tough guy accent is an act/at least some kind of comfort blanket and goes a long way in conveying just how much this is breaking him

Blake Roman actually did really good on this song. He's growing on me as the new Angel Dust VA. The rawness of Blake's voice at the end is just amazing, I get goosebumps every time.

This makes me want to give angel all the hugs. Massive props not just to Blake, but to all of the spindle horse team for getting it this far!

This song really hits like "damn." I'm playing this on repeat

I love how this references Addict - "Addicted to the feeling"

Angel voice right at the end gave me the goosebumps. Blake Roman is actually growing on me as the new VA for Angel

Jumping between Addict and Poison and I seriously can't tell why people are so uptight about the voice I can hardly tell them apart for most of it 😭

As someone that has to deal with SA every day at work... I really feel this song. I have to put on an act and act like I enjoy it. I can't let me true feelings show or I wouldn't have any work. I'm trapped in a spot where I need money very badly, and I have to be abused by men on the daily to reach my goals. I often drink alcohol to help numb the pain and helps me disassociate from all the terrible things I endure. This song reaches my soul. I am glad that this has been able to be represented so well through media. My heart goes out to everyone that is stuck in a job where there are used and exploited.

After watching the actual scene this song hits different. We knew what the song means but it's even sadder that this all happens while Angel is being forced to work and you can actually see how much he is suffering.

For being the new voice, Blake did an amazing job at staying in character the whole time. You can tell it's Angel Dust. It must've been hard forcing himself to voice crack at the end too, props to the team for this one yet again❤

I’m so excited to finally have an angel dust song voiced by Blake Roman! His voice is so good and he has amazing talent!

I JUST finished watching the first four episodes! I literally jumped when I heard the Poison music started, I was SOOOOO ecstatic to see the dance number.

My favorite thing about Angel is how directly addiction is addressed, how it is definitely not a good thing despite how glorious it may be in that moment of high. How you are helpless and always wanting what you know you don’t actually want. Addiction is dangerous and so rarely addressed aside from chemical substances. One can be addicted to so much more than just pills.

From *“Addict”* to *“Poison”* AngelDust seems to never disappoint us when it comes to making beautiful rocking music because his voice is just simply incredible and amazing plus the amount of pain,suffering and sadness that he puts into every word for his songs proves that there’s nobody else who can do this!

only 14 days away and this absolute BOP of a song is only adding to the hype, beautiful performance Blake

Saw episode 4. I never knew somebody would have the balls to tackle the subject. Congrats Vivzie and the team, you did an amazing job.

This song is killer, the emotion out into it is palpable I can hear the tears in Angel’s voice

what i love about this song is the different lyrics between the two choruses. at first it seems angel is enjoying it and riding on that toxic high, "addicted to this feeling i cant help but swallow". but then he starts acknowledging how it's affecting him, "im choking on the taste and i cant help but swallow". the descent on angel's thoughts and emotions on his situation is well portrayed in this song and blake did such a good job in voicing him!

This voice is more.. innocent, compared to the previous actor. It's actually perfect for that reason. Irony is one of many ways to add a layer of depth to a character.

The final line relates to WAY more people than it should

That final part where Angel Dust is on the verge of tears is so heartbreaking. Y'ALL BETTER KEEP HIM SAFE >:(

This is AMAZING, Blake Roman actually portrayed Angel so well, and i love the end like you can hear the emotion in his voice it’s so sad😭

between the original pilot, Addict, his official comic, and now this (the song alone and in context) I think Angel is the most REAL in the franchise. if you know his back story, how he's treated in Hell, how Vlad treats him, ugh.... it just breaks my heart seeing him flat out confirm he despises his life and is the least confident behind his façade of overconfidence. HE'S THE MOST REALISTIC CHARACTER I HAVE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. ❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢 bless you, Vivzi, for such incredible, deep, complex characters 🥰

the chorus is literally just giving me goosebumps how did they do so good

Both Actors are so talented, Blake and Micheal. Please comments stop putting them both down. They were both amazing at singing and voicing each character. Much Love for Blake and Micheal

Listening to this, I noticed that Blake sounds very different from Michael when he sings whereas he sounded almost exactly alike when speaking in the trailer. That's far from a bad thing. I really like his voice. I see how he blew them away in spite of being much less experienced than the other cast members. He's a real underdog, just like Angel.

Seeing this in the episode....was so much more heart wrenching 😢 I've always loved Angel Dust ❤ He's one of my favorite characters and to watch him actually go through what we all know he goes through being associated with Val.....it breaks my heart Incredible performance by Blake 👏 He really brought Angel to life & captured his complex personality

エピソード4😭 エンジェルの過去とか扱いとかが…すごく魅力的なキャラクターになっててすごいです。 その後のハスクとの部分がさらに泣けます😭

I don’t care what anyone else says but Blake absolutely killed it especially in the end, he made it so heartbreaking it was fantastic

So far Hazbin Hotel's songs don't dissapoint me. They are amazing, great writing, great story, great voice, great melody, great everything.

After seeing ep 4, I feel like I can relate to angel a little bit with his situation.. But at least he had husk during that heartbreaking scene 🥲

Wow after watching episode 4 im literally crying

This song is so well done and the way Blake changes the tone at the end really shows how much pain Angel feels well done.

This new voice actor has proven himself to be a worthy successor.

This song in the show, my god, visually it was so so dark and affected me, I wasnt prepared. Its so viscerally wrapped in the hurt and pain, the fake smiles the attempt at making ones self so part of the pain, then those little scenes of seeing him break...I didnt think I would see something so too fucking real in a show like this.

I just finished watching episode 4 where this song comes from, The song hits so differently now with proper context and visualisation for the lyrics. I can’t wait to see more of the show.

Incredible vocals from Blake! Such a fantastic characterisation of Angel Dust.

Blake Roman actually did really good on this song. He's growing on me as the new Angel Dust VA.

Episode 4 killed me😭😭, but this song and the others in the show are amazing. Especially the one in ep 3 between Camilla and Velvette

I avoided listening till the song show came out and im glad i did the animation during the song was amazing and it just hit so well 😭😭😭

Hazbin hotel songs are always such a vibe.

“Addict” to “Look my way” to this!!! Amazing talents with the raw vocals coming out of both Helluvaboss and Hazbin hotel! Congrats to everyone involved for both these titles really taking off!

This song is one of the few that actually touched me. It broke my heart because it's so strangely relatable. I watched the episode, the scenes triggered and broke something in me. I almost cried from flooding memories, that's never happened to me. I'm happy that it triggered that trauma, it made me feel human. Every time I listen to this song, it breaks my heart further but I love that. I love how this song allows me to feel that guilt, that pain, and the urge to cry while i struggle to heal. I lost friends trying to heal from the trauma I faced, this song is letting me feel and embrace the tears and want to cry. This might be my new comfort song.

Blake Roman is so damn talented. The raw emotion in the last verse at the end is INSANE

This voice is more soulful and gives a little more depth to Angel Dust, while the other is more fun. I love them both, honestly.

This is insane at the animation, just watched it at prime video and the amount of details and emotions it shows just beats all the songs on the show so far Insane performance by Blake Roman

Angel Dust’s song is so hard-hitting when you actually see this song in the show… Poor guy has so much trauma

Omg the ending is just so tear jerking props to Blake because you can just hear the emotion in his voice, sounds like Angel’s on the verge of tears

I love the way this song makes you want to learn its lyrics from the first second. I simply adore Angel, Blake, Vivzie, and the entire Hazbin series. I can't wait for the 19th to arrive.

I love how you can hear his voice change from Angel dust to Anthony he did such a great job with that

I’m so impressed by singers who can have voice cracks and still sound amazing

Angel Dust could be a full on mainstream pop star and I would be all for it

The emotion, the vocals, the everything. As someone who has been abused, this hits hard. I cried, Angel Dust will forever be a personal favorite. someone give this man a hug. preferably husker.

I love Blake’s singing voice so much AAAAH😭😖

this song has changed knowing the context

SUCH A GREAT SONG

かっこいい曲だなってイメージだったのに4話見てからはエンジェルの思いが詰め込まれた曲だなって思って悲しくなる…

I didn’t listen to this song until I watched the full show. Dear satan I’m glad I waited cause that end verse hit HARD in the show.

I was very skeptical about his voice but after hearing this im confident it will fit him perfectly!

I really hope every song in the show has this production quality. It goes so hard!

This is why angel dust will always be my favorite. He’s extremely relatable (in certain aspects). This song reminds me of a relationship I was obsessed with/in that was these levels of abusive. Ya keep drinking up the poison bc you’re so hollow, and even afterwards you still are. It’s a disgusting cycle. Fingers crossed our boy can find happiness. ‘Loser baby,’ definitely made things seem less bleak.

I JUST WATCHED EPISODE 4, and I'm crying. Good episode tho

His voice breaking at the end was something I didn't expect. I love Angel so much and it breaks my heart to hear him so sad 😭 But Blake did a really good job with this. I miss the old VA but he'll do great!

His voice is just beautiful! His vocals just don’t crack when he hits those high notes and it actually feels genuine, like he’s actually going through whatever Angel’s going through. The sadness/ sorrow in his voice in the end just was the chef’s kiss to this!

This hits very different within the context of the episode. Quite emotionally potent. Excellent job on this one!

I can't get over how good this episode was.

I really don’t understand the hate Blake is getting. This song is a BOP and he did such a good job portraying the emotion. Like it or not, he is the new angel dust. And I am very excited to see everyone’s hard work come to fruition. Keep your head up Blake. People will find any reason to hate.

The voice crack with the line, “wish I had something to live for tomorrow.” Is so heart breaking.

listening to this after watching the episode and the entire dance part.i got this on repeat.

As someone who was in a narcissistic relationship for almost 2 years, this song feels so relatable and I can't stop listening to it... especially the ending.

An anthem for when you've gone from enjoying the party to wondering when the party will end.

That ending part of the song is so heartbreaking. 😭 Blake did an amazing job singing!!!!! I can’t wait to see what the whole team has created with this show!!

Every episode of the first season was great but nobody's ever gonna forget this one. I can't wait for season 2, even though I know it will bring more tears for both the cast and me.

ALL EPISODES TO 4 SONG ARE SO GOOD OMG

I better see NOTHING but respect for Blake Roman as Angel Dust now cause he sounds PERFECT Edit: wow thanks for the likes lol! But on a different note, everyone commenting or replying how they still prefer Michael Kovach and the pilot cast over the new one just prove how yall don't respect Viv as the creator or the series and how yall have this weird parasocial relationship to the pilot cast. If yall didn't notice, Hazbin is a MUSICAL THEATRE STYLE SERIES, which means the characters are going to be CONSTANTLY SINGING. In the pilot, Jill Harris and Edward Bosco needed voice doubles to be the characters' singing voices. And even though Bosco sounds great in other contexts (DJ Paranoid's Striker song and Silva Hound's Alastor song), that doesn't mean he has the right voice for the style of singing required for Alastor. Alastor is a jazz singer, that's not Bosco's voice, hence the voice double. In Addict, Krystal LaPorte didn't sing for Cherry Bomb and needed a voice double as well. This is not convenient nor is it cost effective in a show where the characters are SINGING CONSTANTLY. The pilot cast were talented voice actors, but they COULD NOT SING (not in character at least). This does NOT DIMINISH THEIR TALENT AS VOICE ACTORS IN ANY WAY. A24 was not about to pay 2 different actors to play each character, so YES, they needed to be replaced. The new cast are all experienced singers in some shape or form. Stop painting Viv as this evil witch for replacing the pilot cast when she literally NEEDED TO in order to have the type of show SHE AS THE CREATOR WANTED. Replacing the pilot cast in TV shows is literally so normal in the industry, that's just how it is, because a pilot is just that: a PILOT, a CONCEPT, NOT THE FINAL PRODUCT GET. OVER IT. One more edit cause some people keep bringing it up. Yes I am aware that Michael Kovach has sung fairly in other projects. Michael Kovach was allowed to reaudition and for one reason or another he didnt get the role. Tdoes not diminish Michael's talent in any capacity, it just means that he wasn't right for Angel in the long run. But guess what? All of the casting decisions were made YEAAAARRRSSS AGO. The pilot cast has already moved on from Hazbin. The pilot cast, being PROFESSIONALS, undoubtedly understood why they were replaced with stronger more experienced singers. They've MOVED ON, and you need to move on from them. Michael Kovach and the rest of the pilot cast doesn't need any of you Hazbin pilot purists going to war for them, and they don't need you dragging them back into stupid pointless drama over roles they've *MOVED* *ON* *FROM* All you Hazbin pilot purists are part of the reason why this fandom is already one of the most toxic fan bases on the internet in YEARS. *SHUT.* *UP.* about the pilot cast. you're ruining the show for the rest of us who are just excited to see this series finally be released after how far Viv and her team have come.

Honestly, Blake is really growing on me with his voice and his portrayal of Angel Dust. Such a great song, and great vocals to match it. So emotional, and I love it. Can’t wait for the series!

Blake Roman is such a good singer and he conveyed the emotion so well that this song is tragically awesome

Omg ep4 was my favorite so far absolutely stunning

This is absolutely beautiful. Blake did such a good job, especially at the end

The narrative structures of Hazbin/Helluva songs are always so on point. This one is a perfect representation of Angel's character...the brazen libertine on the outside who doesn't apparently mind that he's a commodity and embraces burning the candle at both ends with an almost pleasurable nihilism. But as the song progresses and the layers peel away we get a look at their deeper self...the person who resents being used up daily and wants something to believe in. SO excited.

Angels voice at the end made me replay the song a million times again for days. I love this song❤

The episode was so painful I love how it made me cry such a good show

As someone who is seriously into the “Addict” music video. I will say while he’s no Michael kovach, Blake Roman does do a very good job in this and I’m definitely intrigued to see how he does when the tv series comes out

Angel's new VA is super talented! I feel like this song is catchy and relatable. I just hope it's in the show

This show already has me feral. I was cryin by this song

I’m gonna need a whole album of Angel Dust songs!

the more i listen to this song, the more i love it! it throws in these sexual phrases (gulp, choking, swallow, any way you want me, i'll be yours) and the popular high-energy phrase "living like there's no tomorrow," and i waved it away at first because i thought it was just in-character, but now i think that they wanted us to have that initial reaction where we just assume that those lines are only surface level. i think it was on purpose that they used these phrases and flipped them on their head so that they hold different, darker meanings. it might be the only way that angel sees himself, the only way he can communicate where he feels like people will listen, a mask he hides behind, or the only way that he knows how to describe how he's feeling because that's the language he's limited to due to his persona. the phrases "living like there's no tomorrow" and "any way you want me" are particularly twisted here when put into context. it's such a clever song! all while being incredibly catchy (edit) i think i've confused some people on what exactly i mean about some of these lines. you can obviously have your own interpretations but here's how i've interpreted it: "living/wasted like there's no tomorrow": i think it's because he doesn't think there will be a tomorrow, or that he's impulsive and doesn't care about what happens to him. this can either be because of imposter syndrome, fear of what valentino could do to him or his reputation, low self-esteem, or something else, and we don't really know which since the series hasn't come out yet. "living like there's no tomorrow" is often framed in a positive light where partying/drugs are glorified, but here it more so framed as a masked cry for help. the song ends with how he wishes he "had something to live for tomorrow," meaning he wishes that he had purpose or a life outside of his sex work and addictions, maybe wishing that he had deeper connections with people rather than being a toy to them, or how he feels hopeless and doesn't see the point in living this horrible life. "any way you want me, baby, that't the way you got me. i'll be yours.": this is a common sentiment in love/lust songs but again it takes on a darker meaning here with context. he could either be talking about valentino or his fans, and how he changes himself or puts on a persona/mask and adapts to whatever other people want of him. he feels like he belongs to his demons (valentino, fans, drugs) and that he's helpless to escape. the lyrics in the second verse seem to back these ideas up. sexual lines like "resist another gulp," and "choking from the taste and i can't help but swallow up" all seem to be referencing his drug addiction but are portrayed as if they were only surface level since they're coming from a very horny demon. he can't seem to stop himself from continuing taking these drugs and it doesn't help that someone (likely valentino) is basically "feeding" it to him, as he repeats over and over. he seems to be very self-aware of the problem but not able to shake its grip on him. he seems to just blame himself, going off of the lines in the second half of the first verse where he says that he should have known, how he knows that valentino is lying to him, and how "i made my choice." the first lines in the song seem to be setting the stage of what sex work is like for him. maybe he craves real connection but is only tortured with artificial love underneath "flashing lights" (which is probably referring to the flashing light of cameras), and at the end of the day (or his "ruthless nights"), he's left all alone. so yeah, there's me making an already pretty long comment even longer! i think too much about horny, cartoon demons.

I did not expect this song tbh. But it's sounds insanely good. Angels voice slowly breaking is bone chilling

NGL I was sad about most of the VA's re-castings for Hazbin, most sad for me was Angel, between the pilot and "Addict" it was hard for me hearing someone else doing Angel for the series....Until I heard Blake do "Poison". The amount of RAW emotion Blake conveys in not just the way he sings, but the way he managed to pull off the last few lines with a subtle but clear understanding of Angel's situation is amazing. I am a trained singer myself and pulling that kind of emotion in a song, while staying in-character and maintaining the voice is VERY HARD TO DO. He has my respect for sure and I have loved him as Angel ever since this episode.
