When this started playing in Roxy's PQ route, I knew shit was about to get serious.

[@glowstickia2891]

This was honestly the song and reason why I got into Homestuck in the first place and it makes me emotional every time I listen to it now. The song that started the journey up the mountain of a webcomic Homestuck is... If it weren't for this song, I probably wouldn't have gotten closer to three amazing people and I am so glad this song gave me the final push to jump into the thousands of pages of a wild webcomic ride.

[@JadeJuno]

The thing that started and ended your journey, _huh._

[@edwardsinger7644]

This was one of the few flash pages that I experienced while reading live. (I think it was this one and the meenah walkthroughs... i wasn't an active fan for long and fell off during one of the pauses.) The version of Even in Death from roxy:sleepwalk was already one of my favorite and it just felt so cool at the time, especially when the orchestra kicks in at 2:50 or so

[@keyboardbirb]

I will never get over this song. It's just put together so perfectly. Brings me to tears. Best Homestuck song.

I NEED to know the name of the musical effect that the violin makes from 2:06 to 2:41. I love it! It just sounds so pretty, bouncing around and playing really fast solo like that. I'v also heard the same effect in "Rather Be".

pretty sure that's just a violin

[@jackrutledgegoembel5896]

dadisfad yeah but what's it called when an instrument plays really high and fast like that without a striaghtforward melody?

[@MattJDave]

That's essentially just having a fast melody. There is no 'effect' or musical term, it is simply a melody with low durations of notes.

[@jackrutledgegoembel5896]

***** I know I'm not really using good musical terminology. But I thought that there was a term for like a little flourish like that. I do actually know a lot about music, I just couldn't really phrase the question well.
