I Want To Live (Baldurs Gate 3) 【covered by Anna】

[@annapantsu]

lets pretend that i wasn't in the middle of playing Baldur's Gate and completely forgot about this video coming out until i got the notification on my phone. You can check out Baldurs Gate 3 here: bit.ly/Annapantsu_BaldursGate3 : )

no shame in being excited, you playing a bard?

[@thornelson1411]

What are you playing as???

[@annapantsu]

heads up for any content creators who had their videos claimed with this audio: someone has illegally uploaded this cover to a content ID system using [Merlin] Symphonic Distribution (on behalf of FUSE FOUR) This is not me, this is not the company I use for content ID, this video is sponsored and is not allowed to be content ID'd either. yes they have put the "artist name" as me, but it is not me! x My management are working hard to get this removed from Symphonics content ID system.

[@aceshadowkiller955]

Oh jeez, it sucks that you have to deal with this, hope it gets resolved quickly!

[@mrberenike]

Well, despite discovering you due to assumedly a troll Copyright claiming my twitch vod this is a very lovely cover, wasn't aware there was vocals to the song but its very soothing and pleasing to hear. 😊

[@DavidShepheard]

It sucks that copyright trolls are illegally pretending to be your agent, so that they can steal money from people who are trying to make Baldur's Gate 3 fans happy. The only company with the right to make copyright claims on this music is Laurien Studios themselves. And they support community expression, as they know that it helps give their customers a better experience of the game. It's a shame that Laurian Studios can't register their songs with KZbin under a "Do not copyright claim" scheme.

[@Christian-xd6tx]

Is the issue resolved?

[@WoMysticTV]

​@mrberenike just use an audio spliter

[@sweepingtime]

When I heard this song in the credits and going over how much my poor character suffered during the course of her adventure, I couldn't help but cry.

[@YourSmartOlderSister]

OMG, SEE IT WAS IN THE CREDITS!!! Someone told me that it wasn't and I legit spent an hour wondering if, in my 12-hour speedrun towards the end, I'd just hallucinated this song in the credits.

[@blueeyedwitch9840]

Ill literally scream it from the rooftops, astarion and karlach should be besties and theyre the best characters

[@nemofish3504]

They really are xD

[@maddoxio]

My current playthrough has me romancing Astarion and my friend romancing Karlach. They definitely get along quite a bit And my character is a bard with Anna as a singing voice claim! So, I always imagined my bard singing this song to the both of them!

[@holderua]

besties? why? they are the complete opposites. Kill the tieflings camp and Karlach leaves you while Astarion celebrates the slaughter with red wine

[@maddoxio]

@@holderua Astarion is trying to act tough and be "scary" If you play through his story, he's a big softie that actually hates hurting people.

[@holderua]

@@maddoxio In my playthrough Astarion hurt A LOT of people in pursuit of his power and revenge

[@Browsey1994]

As the song begins to wash over the tavern, sound seems to stop, as people from all walks of life listen, enraptured. Painful memories seem to wash over many, as countless hands find their way to gently brush over keepsakes, or close their eyes and remember the faces of those gone by. The warrior rubs his thumb over a ring hung on a golden chain. The paladin absentmindedly brings a hand to the clasp of their cape. The rogue grips their dagger. The wizard closes her eyes. The bard and warlock both have tears in their eyes. Strangers all, for a moment bound by a singular pain, and yet, as the notes wane and the world seems to return, determination fills the eyes that were once full of sorrow. A new day will dawn whether we are there to witness it or not, so we must fight all the harder to see them.

[@borislav_slavov]

Your voice is truly resonating with everything I wanted to express with the song. Thank you Anna!♥

[@damobeck1]

Good music, homie!

[@WynneL]

She truly expresses all the emotions that shine from your music. It's a collaboration of two geniuses and it moves me so much. 💗💖🥰

[@jeremygeller9145]

Amazing work I’m absolutely loving the game, just completed a certain boss fight with villain who sings his own theme song, and that got my hyped in a way no other video game ost has gotten me so hyped for a battle. Phenomenal

[@DarkParagon]

Amazing soundtrack to a game that has snuck in amongst Final Fantasy 7 and Skyrim as my favourite games of all time, nudging out Dragon Age: Origins from the top 3, and that's no small ask. Soundtrack is SO important to a game, and this one was a legend.

[@Infiltrator_]

You made the best music I’ve ever heard in a game that I consider the best game I’ve ever played. Thank you for creating such a masterpiece.

LYRICS] I feel your breath upon my neck, A soft caress as cold as death. I didn't know you well back then, I blame it all on luck and vain. Your blood like wine, I wanted in. Oh darling, get me drunk and make me feel! It's not my fault. I'm not to blame. These ain't my sins. I broke my chains. There's more to do and I still want to live. I feel your breath upon my neck, A soft caress as cold as death. I feel your heart beat in my soul, Our futures bound our bodies know. Your blood like wine, I wanted in. Oh darling, get me drunk, invite me in! It's not my fault. I'm not to blame. These ain't my sins. I broke my chains! There's more to do, if I can only live. I can't go yet. Don't let me die! I'll never stop, Until I'm done. But just tonight, maybe i'll rest in peace. I feel your breath upon my neck, A soft caress as cold as death. I hear your heart beat in my soul, Our endings bound, our bodies know. I can't go yet! Don't let me die! I want to live! My only one! There's more to do, if we can only live. The clock won't stop and this is what we get...

[@BJR-no7et]

[@gullideckelp7791]

@@michaelfranzgarcia7769 the Composer of the Song confirmed on Twitter that It's actually the Players Theme. But the Fact that it fits so well with the character arcs of so many origin characters makes it even cooler imo.

[@silentjackm.d4490]

Having never played baldur's gate all I can think of is that sounds like a tragic story of someone who unwillingly became a vampire. This would fit in a vampire the masquerade story and I absolutely love it

[@BaronVonHoovy]

You nailed it, this song was written with romancing a character just like that in mind.

[@Apillis124]

Interestingly the lyrics take on a far more sinister note when playing a character Origin in the game called "The Dark Urge" (which is the one playthrough that directly connects Baldur's Gate 3 to its predecessors 1 and 2) and understanding that this song is meant to be sang as a duet. Also, it's not meant as a romance song for any one particular character, but it's meant for multiple characters/companions and the instrumental version of the song plays in the background when just idling in camp with your group of companions.

[@Notski]

@@Apillis124 Wow. That's so dark and yet somehow so beautiful. Haven't played Dark Urge yet but now I might have to start a playthrough with it.

[@echowoods7977]

@@Apillis124 it fits the astarion/dark urge romance i'm surprised it's not intentional

[@Apillis124]

@@echowoods7977 The song is literally for every character really and when learning their various backgrounds it fits for each of them one way or another (hance why regardless of whom you play or romance its there for them and often an instrumental in the background for every playable character), though with the Dark Urge specifically as said before takes on a bit more of sinister view in the song's duet form.

[@midwayxD]

This song hits hard when you finish Karlach's story...

Why are you so talented, and why don’t everyone know you!? I’ll speak in rhymes for a bit: Your vocals are insane, technique seductive, I’m listening to this song while looped, it’s self destructive.

[@Xenolithial]

_"For nearly two centuries I stalked the streets like a ghost while the person I was lay here, dead and buried._ _There's almost nothing left of the person I was. Just a name on a rock._ _I'm not afraid to die. I'm afraid I'll never have a new life after that._ _If that is to be your fate, I will enjoy our time together while it lasts. But soon enough we'll have to say our goodbyes._ _In a thousand years, when I've all but forgotten how to love yet again, you'll flit back into my heart_ _And I'll weep, Wondering what happened to my mad love."_

[@burakozgur3758]

can you make a cover for raphael's final act too? Or maybe weeping dawn? It would be very dope hearing those from your cover 🥰

[@rivellionn]

openly sobbing, weeping even. this song is so beautiful and brings so much comfort alone but you doing a cover of it somehow made it even more perfect 🥲
