LYRICS:
Some Things Never Change Gavin Dunne 2016
Withered wood and cracks in concrete faded
Lonely old leviathans corrode
Labyrinth of lights and life degraded
Vivid highways slump to riven roads
And ever and on we go
Never to learn or grow
Pillars of peace estranged
I guess some things never change
We fall, we fall again
Stare through empty window panes
We fall, we fall again
I guess some things never change...
Sterile soil will harden
Wasted world my garden
Beacons of the past on each horizon
Weary feet tread stories in the dust
Havens hard, no steel can crack the diamonds
Hope among the ruin and the rust
And ever and on we run
Purest of rains they come
Pillars of peace estranged
I guess some things never change
We fall, we fall again
Stare through empty window panes
We fall, we fall again
I guess some things never change...
Sterile soil will harden
Wasted world my garden

This actually does a better job of portraying the weight and reality of what has happened to the world in game better than the game ever does. Between constantly searching for better gear, exploring vaults, trying to survive and helping another GOD DAMN SETTLEMENT, it's easy to forget just how much the world was devastated, and the importance of holding onto hope and learning from the past for a better future.

[@zaiahbug982]

The best story I read that portrayed this in such a strong way was the book of Metro 2033. When Artyom sees for the first time the vastness of the world and can't even comprehend how it worked, imaging planes as if they were some godly machines. It hit so hard to think that there is so much to lose.

[@draconicfeline6177]

Fallout 3 and New Vegas (and 4, I guess,) had a sense of beauty and wonder. The soundtrack helped, being almost mystical and ethereal. The originals do not have this vibe - a bit of a mythological vibe, maybe, but it doesn't have the "beauty of the dying world" feeling.

Sometimes it's the worst moments in life that sees me back here. Strangely, that's when I really see; these songs are about more than gaming. You draw us in with your fancy thumbnails relating to this franchise or that game title, and instead teach us the ways of faith, perseverance, and hope in one's self. You're musics strangely relatable, and catchy enough for nearly anyone to remember it's lyrics--lyrics that'll keep resurfacing through thick and thin. Hope is something that people truly need, and this is one of its purest forms of delivery. Thanks for sharing. ~

In some ways, Fallout 4 is perhaps the most hopeful. This is is the first fallout game in full color, it has people actively building things up, and while the settlement system may have disappointed/frustrated people, you are actively building things up. You are building up a future. Your wanderings can be invested into homes and towns.

[@dr.strangelove9815]

One of the saddest aspects of the Fallout Earth, and the USA of that universe, is just how close they were to not reaching critical mass of nuclear war. With the advent of miniaturized nuclear fusion (2066), the Big MT Sierra Madre matter replicators, energy physics and robotics, the Fallout setting was right on the edge of avoiding the Resource Wars and the Great War, and instead entering into an era of "raygun gothic" space colonization, similar to what the Enclave had planned. Corruption on all sides led to the Great War in Fallout, and by the time the solution was discovered, in 2066, to end resource conflict, the Great War was nearing inevitable M.A.D. Although it seems to be unpopular to Fallout fans, the Institute has the best potential to rebuild the world under the leadership of the Director, as they are not fixated on the Old World, but using their technology to move forward.

[@balfyrown3023]

Dr. Strangelove you had me in the first half, not gonna lie

[@jadenlawrence1934]

Between the Instatute and Enclave they both have the best opportunity of rebuilding the US waste. The only problem that the Enclave has is its leadership, though the Instatute may circumvent this issue they aren't used to working at such a scale and have a huge hill to climb

[@liamwatson3840]

I know this is a little late but that’s why I like the NCR, yeah it’s holding onto old ways and it’s turning imperialistic. But they try, they really do, yeah the corruption and how thin they spread themselves is a problem but I love them so much because I can tell, deep down, they want things to be better. They’re like the flawed hero of the factions IMO.

[@jankdotTV]

It's weird, those fly-through shots do a better job of showcasing the world than the game does itself. Like, when you're walking around, the game is focusing you on the space directly in front of you and below you looking for junk or enemies; you rarely get a sense for how the world is laid out. This captures both the 'physical' composition of Fallout's world and the kind of feeling they were going for, the whole 'pushing through despite everything in a dead world barely holding itself together' vibe. Very nice

[@miracleofsound]

+Jack Yes! It was actually only when I went into free cam mode and got more vertical that I noticed some of the really clever details in how the world is built - for example the shattered highway behind the crashed jet, or the way buildings lean away from the glowing sea in the direction of the blast

[@TonyRedgrave]

This is an excellent song about the wasteland. It makes me really want a Fallout spin off game that's not about exploring the wasteland and killing everything that moves, but one about rebuilding civilization, promoting peace and healing the world. Why are so many people hellbent on ruling the wasteland when they should be putting things right? We need a game about that; a group of people hellbent on fixing the world, or at least improving it.

[@TonyRedgrave]

Yeah, but I'm talking about an entire game built around that concept. Think something like Civ 5 but around rebuilding the wasteland. It'd just be a spin off game, but it could be fun.

[@TallboyDave]

+David S. (Fallenangel700) Because Chris Avellone, that's why. He's been on record as saying that he hates anything that might push the setting beyond a static "Post-Apocalyptic Survival amongst the Ruins" setting, and has even been noted as saying that he wishes he could utterly destroy the NCR, to send everything back to that state of stasis.

+David S. (Fallenangel700) not only in game, we need people for fixing our world....

[@businessburd2071]

+David S. (Fallenangel700) well, in like seven years (or longer as i'm shit at estimating project times especially with mutiple ones in the works) You can look for a game called Ombrophobia. I plan to make a game like fallout but, as you suggested, about rebuilding. Of course there's combat, even in a perfect apocalypse you've got to defend yourself. and one of the three main story lines is based around rebuilding rather than revenge.

+Bobistdeinemuda Yes I have and while they are quite good in their own right, most of it is simply not as good as the music in Fallout 4.

You outdid yourself again, Gav... you really did. Those lyrics... damn, I´ve had the shittiest of weeks, my stomach churning and heart feeling like its going to burst... and then I hear "And ever and on we go" and "I guess some things never change", along with "We fall, we fall again"... those hit hard, really hard. I guess I hadnt really prepared for them. But along came Beauty Bleak, and I couldnt help sing along as I cried the best sad tears I´ve probably had in years... and those tears only dared come out with this magnificent song.

Ironically listening to this song after 6 years adds to the feeling and beauty of it. Fallout series is a shadow of former self, our world completely changed through those years and we haven't learned much as species. Weird type of "nostalgia".

It's just surreal to return.

Excellent song, though with the desolation that is shown in the video makes me think that this may have been better for 3 that 4, seeing as 4 really doesn't have desolation like 3 or even New Vegas. Great work MiracleOfSound. Also, great settlements you have in the background. Far better than what I could make.

[@amanthatlikesfromsoftware]

Whenever I listen to this song, I'm reminded of a quote by Kratos. "War are fought for two things . . . survival, or advantage."

[@RedAvient]

Such a soothing, haunting song about the apocalypse...

[@dozerjohn]

Miracle of Sound - making songs better than the games they are about since 2011.

[@henriquechagas7017]

but fallout was good, like, pretty good, I don't know why some people are saying he wasn't

[@gawee08]

+Henrique Chagas For a Fallout game it disappointed majorly in some areas. Story, characters, and the game's rpg elements were all crap. Sure, the gameplay, atmosphere, factions (and their choices), morals were all amazing but Bethesda really needs to make their stories and characters better. Also, stop streamlining Fallout.

[@henriquechagas7017]

***** think about skyrim, does it have a nice story either?

[@gawee08]

Henrique Chagas no. while i love bethesda im not afraid to admit that they aren't exactly good at writing stories or characters. they are only good at gameplay, atmosphere, world building and music (which they do incredibly well, like i really mean INCREDIBLY)

[@dozerjohn]

Out of curiosity - how does my original comment state, that the game is bad? All I said is that Gavin's songs are better. This one for example is fucking glorious - which is something few people would say about the game. That doesn't mean that the game is bad though, does it?

[@diplexnormal3353]

After the new update released, I went back to playing Fallout 4 again. This game still passes the vibe check and I *love* it! I honestly haven’t played this in a while and for once in my life, I’m actually enjoying it and looking back at these old videos gives me a big sense of nostalgia. This song was my favorite to listen to while I ventured through the dead wasteland and abandoned ruins of a fallen country, a truly beautiful and down to earth feeling. ❤

[@raulnegron4887]

By Atom! I.... I.. I'm speechless this represented all I feel when exploring the wastes, reminds me of the sacrifice of James and his son, the nuclear vendetta of Ulysses, the Tale of the Courier, Desmond's pent-up anger toward his old political enemy, and the tragic life of The Sole Survivor, first watching his world burn in nuclear fire, being frozen for 200 years watching his wife die and his son taken away, coming out after 200 years in a wasteland, a mere shade of what his world, once was to search for his lost son, only to find out that things in this new reality are never going to be the same. I shed a tear when I heard this, this song captures it all, and I Thank You, Miracle of Sound, you always live up to your name!

[@samleheny1429]

I love it when you incorporate past songs into your new ones. Assuming your past songs are good. Which they are! It reminds me of Bjork, making songs that she considered sequels to her other songs.

[@briancoleman9330]

Just discovered this song on TB's channel on his stream. Honestly that's the first time I've heard it, and I wont lie, you are the first musician in a very long time that I am 100% behind and proud to be supporting. Keep them coming my friend!

[@Cabbrickk]

Amazing tribute to Fallout 4. The experience of being sucked into this beautiful wasteland can be felt through this song. Hope this is the start of yet another successful year for Miracleofsound!

[@Mason009009]

Your music constantly reminds me that these franchises are complete masterpieces! The Elder Scrolls Fallout The Witcher Three franchises that have grown to become the pinnacle of open world games. No matter how many publishers try to flood the market with stale as hell open world games, they will never live up to the greatness that these franchises created. Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3, Fallout 4, and The Witcher III are all on my favorite games of all time list and games that I still play extensively today. Whenever I feel burnt out on gaming I pop in one of these and it reinvigorates my love for this hobby once again!

[@bugzapper57]

Poignant. Manly tears were shed.

[@noahsturgis3633]

Seriously, how can people dislike this?

[@bongobingo3967]

Probably the same people who like shitty Taylor Swift songs.

[@Smithington_]

Well... Some things never change, I guess..

[@simpleconcept3698]

The same people that say:"Fallout is a shit cuz the grafichshsh is bad!!!!!111!1!1!1asdfgfgdg"

[@kylearioda2523]

Fucking synths...

[@leftyhara3876]

on the internet you can always find 1/10th of a percent of people to hate anything.

[@Diagonalfire]

Gav, I've been listening to your music since Mass Effect, and I love all of it, but this song is definitely one of your best. 10/10. and like you said on your vlog, quality over quantity! gratitude from the US.

[@allu6244]

Jesus man you don't have to go so hard on these

[@mon0lithic629]

Could someone make a mod that replaces menu and credit music with this? It would be bloody awesome!

[@AlphaShepardWolf]

I'm going to play this on repeat 24/7 for the next three weeks.

[@Mikolaj417]

Me too!! :-D

[@TheSectorM]

Some seriously next-level stuff here. I really love this song. The wasteland is a place of lingering ghosts, but also of untamed beauty. It's the phoenix rising slowly from its own ashes.

[@yognout1]

yes but it's also kind of bitter sweet "war war never changes" we are doomed to repeat old mistakes it's human nature.

[@yognout1]

"we fall again. why do we never change" 4:15

[@TheSectorM]

That's the cycle of the phoenix. To live, to die, to live again, and so on. The people of the wasteland may one day rebuild a large-scale society, which in turn may one day start the cycle of destruction again, but it will be likely be thousands of years into the future. For people like the Lone Wanderer and the Sole Survivor, their actions help in the rebirth of a society, even it is doomed to again consume itself one day.

[@nehu3369]

3 words: a masterpiece, beautiful

[@Notoromus]

That callback to Beauty Bleak gave me goosebumps

[@Yawehplaneswalker616]

Gah, I've listened to ALL your songs. And this is the first time I've cried - and I haven't even bought the game yet. The tears, they flow.

[@Tiberiumfreek]

Its not always clear how beautiful Fallout 4 really is, until you get some well done over view shots of the landscape. It truly is scenic but devastating.

[@connorveenstra]

Ever though about doing a song for Gravity Falls? The series is about to wrap and I think it'd be cool to have a song for the show.

[@VuldarLeveL]

+Lord _ Alyx No offense but I'd love to see Gav make a song for Gravity Falls. And it might be a cartoon for kids but I really enjoy it. It's fun, has a great atmosphere and it talks about some rather deep issues ranging from how important it is to remain to yourself in your formative years to the atmosphere that can form around cult leaders. Yes it does it in a cartoon but the medium is unimportant if the message is shown in a proper way. On top of that I'd rather watch a cartoon for kids that's interesting than some garbage for adults.

[@connorveenstra]

VuldarLeveL Don't forget to mention the awesome mysteries, the funny characters and the fact that it bothers to have an over-arching plot.

[@animehunter4830]

+Connor Veenstra Eww fuck off you disgusting bandit

[@connorveenstra]

Anime Hunter Don't hate me because I'm right.

[@animehunter4830]

This post has triggered Maxson.

[@gameplayerczawairysczkanal9611]

Agree😎

[@ModHaterHD2003]

Wow Amazing

[@VoidLantadd]

This is depressing and dreary, and simultaneously hopeful and bright. Amazing. You totally nailed the themes of Fallout.

[@tobymoose2734]

I swear every game company needs to hire you to do a commercial like this for their game a month or two after launch. It would bring back that new game "hype" in most players and bring in new ones. Another great song

[@Dovaah]

I haven't played Fallout 4 yet, but I know a little bit about it. What I know for certain is that this song is honestly hauntingly beautiful.

[@zipzapper0]

Miracle of Sound, Miracle of Sound never changes. The feelings change, their presence does not. Through all the fans views and favorites, the feels remain genuine. Miracle of Sound never changes. -Not Ron Perlman

[@levitan71]

what i love about this game is that when you start youre vulnerable and on your own in a hostile enviroment, but because you refuse to be broken refuse to give in to the elements but master them and make your mark on the world you walk on the game slowly begins to show you that your actions does matter and in the end you master the wasteland and can make it better.

[@ajeezy8775]

Just getting back into the series. This song captures the feel of Fallout so well. It reminds me of Music for a forgotten future by Mogwai

[@graynomad7735]

This makes me not want to set the world on fire

[@apertureonfirephotography4795]

This makes me want to dust off my game and play it again still such a great game.

[@cvrc11]

I actually recognized "Beauty Bleak" the moment the chorus started, which is amazing considering I only heard that song once, over two years ago! Goes to show how memorable your music is, I guess!

[@mimkana]

This was awesome!! At first I thought it was going to be a really bleak song, but as it went on it got more intense and gave a sense of wonderment and hope. So while over all it was mournful, it had tones of "we are still here" and "we never change, for good or bad. We will try again to live."

[@spectralassassin6030]

This song gives me chills.

[@Zoldaten737]

Masterpiece as amazing one, so immersive to the Fallout world. My favorite one, with out any doubt and it's for sure. You really do the MASTERPIECE work!

[@miracleofsound]

+Vladimir Tabolin Thank you :)

[@ferrox8421]

this hits different after the TV show and the fall of the NCR

[@FableWolfe]

I love how he works in the sounds of his previous song into this one, he does that with every series. I love it every time.

[@scorch6297]

"Some things never change" Ah, I see what you did there.

[@DarkOcultism-fu666ni]

Ladies and gentelmans be prepared cause the talented Miracle Of Sound has released another amazing song. Wow Gavin this was made with feelings in it, i cant even describe the amount of talent you have, you are a supermusician and really thanks for existing, in this world we need more musicians like you, happy new year 2016 my friend.

[@taitbillings3818]

When it got to the "sterile soil" refrain...literal chills Excellent as always :-)

[@skaamit]

Прям сразу, аж с первых секунд до мурашек. Один из лучших среди крайних синглов Гэвина. Звучанием и какими-то глубокими ощущениями напомнило "The Little Sisters". Местами так и пронизывает атмосфера некой пустоты. Очень хороший трек, вот прям нравиться-нравиться. Да и картинка так нежно погружает в полёт. Видимо "FallOut 4" и не отличается графонием и разноцветными красками, но представленные футажики замечательные. Давненько "Miracle of Sound" меня так не радовал.
