[@freyfalling]

The tragic story of losing Charlie in Quackity's quest for glory is something I'm always so emotional about. Seeing that I'm not crazy and that other people feel just as strongly about it is super reassuring haha. Thank you so much for taking the time to make the masterpiece that is Lonely King, it's a jaw dropping tribute to the story

[@oofieodyssey4349]

You can really tell how proud and passionate he is about this project as he reviews it to us. When Charlie makes stuff like this, in the end, it’s so admirable how much he puts into his art. I just love that very much.

[@LostIcul]

Honestly, I don't watch Quackity. I never have, and I doubt I ever will. But Lonely King has to be one of the greatest songs I have ever heard. The amount of effort put into it is obvious and the time you put into it is genuinely incredible. Thank you for pushing through and especially for dealing with all the impatient comments. I can't imagine how frustrating that must have been. Love the song, and can't wait to hear more :)

I really suggest watching the lore! It’s amazing but if you don’t I won’t force you

Words cannot express how good the song is. You are a blessing to the world CG5. "A song that took time is eventually good, but a rushed song is forever bad", and I'm glad you didn't rush it. 😊

[@tobiasnocte5515]

Dude, this song really touched me, the score, the lyrics, all of them. When you said "emotions that you don't feel in a long time" this song actually made me feel something, and was pure and genuine joy, not only that, but made me feel empowered, this song is fantastic, i loved it

[@amé_x_x]

Charlie makes me feel proud, I'm growing up with the most talented man. I look at him and think, "That's the guy who's brought me up to be who I am today." What a blessing, wish everyone knew you, if they don't they're missing out bro, seriously. :)

[@CG5]

I just need you to know that this comment really touched my heart. Thank you.

[@la_rosette]

The song really felt like it was part of a musical. I could imagine it being performed on a stage. Thank you for this song!! Awesome work as always :D I really love your work and I admire the emotional input to the song. I wish one day I could make a song of my own, but for now I will stick to doing covers. I'll continue to cheer you on!!!

[@krell972]

Knowing how much you intentionally implemented your own emotions and ideas in the song makes it twice as meaningful to me. It makes it feel genuine and real because it is and I appreciated you expressing that as well as explaining the process. This entire production was excellent.

[@noodli8138]

Charlie, the song was beautiful, It makes me mad that so many people were pressuring you to make it, but I'm glad that you're pleased with the finished product! It was amazing, me and my friend would count down the days until the song came out.

[@atlas_9056]

The song was amazing. You've and other people who worked on it done a great job

[@bombydabomb]

bro I was not expecting this that looked so cool definitely worth the wait the way it was mixed with Minecraft and hamilton just mixes so well

[@ghoull1122]

As a musician and songwriter I love relating to your tears of joy when you dream for the song came true. The feeling of when a vision for this perfect song come together as you saw it is actually crazy. Charlie keep making bangers and telling your story. Never give up!

[@lololloollolollollolollollsss]

I can now never hear the song the same… when I first listened to it I was impressed, now relietening to Lonely King I’ll understand all of the effort and lore quotes put into the animation and lyrics. Thanks for making this amazing song, CG5!! ❤️❤️❤️ thank you for making me cry today-

[@sugarspunclover]

This song was amazing. I'm going to be listening to this on loop for so long. absolutely and definitely and completely worth the wait, thank you so much for this :D

[@dennis_s]

For some, it may seem crazy to get emotional over a RP within a videogame. But, animation like this with a good storyboard and a great song to back it makes me emotional too. It's about the core message, not the medium it takes. Thanks for releasing this, CG5. I'm not a big DSMP fan, but I love the overarching story behind it and the experiences those that were in it had during its run.

[@elicitsilence]

Thanks for being patient with us and finishing the project! We really appreciate it. The song is amazing, and I think it was worth the wait! Again, thanks CG! Feel free to take a break if you would like, we know this may have been a little stressful. We're proud of you!

Bro I would've waited a DECADE FOR THIS SONG, and I would be still be amazed, we're all proud of you man! Fantastic work!

[@X-SPONGED]

11:31 I also thought in the music video that this line can be used both as a brag and as a proposition. "You've been kicked into the sand" is either referring to Wilbur's Fall from Grace or The Side Characters being pushed away from The Main Cast, Fundy, Purpled, Foolish, and Charlie. "I've built something better than what you could ever dream of on your own" could be interpreted as a brag to Wilbur, or as a proposition to The Side Characters, "I've built something better than what you could ever do on your own, join me and you'll be greater than what you are now" It's basically a Pyramid Scheme...

[@SnowPaul1]

Absolutely amazing song dude. Thank you for the effort you put into this.

[@DiamondAngelMusic]

Thank you so much for sharing this with us! You definitely made me cry:) I remember being at that first stream, and actually being the one to suggest the line "The role of the king is a lonely one to play" It's amazing to see how far you made it, and how incredibly perfect this turned out! I can't say thank you enough. You inspired me to write my own Quackity song. I just released it, and I think it's the best song I've made. So thank you again, Charlie! I hope you see this, and I hope you have a great day:)

Definitely was Worth the wait!! Amazing job to everyone who Participated in making this Amazing song.. :)

I'm really excited to see how much cg5 will grow with his music and props to the animator they both deserve a round of Applause for this masterpiece

i LOVE lonely king, I’m going to listen to this 24:7 lol

[@danielramirezmarcos6849]

CG5. You are the best musician the world has ever met. This is currently my favourite song of yours, and the way that you musically (and visually) explained the whole story of Quackity is outstanding. Not only Quackity's! This could fit for other villians! You used magic to make a beautiful composition that took MONTHS to work. And, the way the animator you hired perfectly represented and introduced this song to us was magnificent! HUUUUGE Shoutout to that person. I am SUPER sorry for me and the other impatient people. I bet we all regret it, because it was extremely worth it. EXTREMELY WORTH IT. You worked hard, made notes... even cried of joy. This is a great thing you are showing us here. There is no word that can describe how much this means to me, Charlie. There is no word that can describe how incredible you are. You are the best. THE BEST. There is no word that can tell you... ...who you are. And to picture your destiny! You are succesful. KEEP GOING, CHARLIE. NEVER, *EEEEVER* STOP! You are a gift to the world. You'll always be.

[@ilikefrog]

CG5, ive been listening to your music for quite some time and to be honest Lonely King is the most beatiefull song so far ive seen you made when i heard people were leaking the song i rejected to look at the leaks and waited and waited and when it finally came i cryed i cryed so hard with tears of joy of how AMAZING! you did with your buddies it is one of your best songs you made and shows how far you've gone how far you've changed and i think Lonely king is absolutely amazing.

While we were saying 'pog' in the livestream, this came out!

[@aaronlopez5163]

This song is sorta like CG5’s ultimatum. You can hear the anger and impatience in lonely king and in a way Charlie wanted to insert his emotions and impatience into the song and it came out so beautifully. He poured his dark side energy into this song in a masterful and beautiful way.

[@kinley1020]

THIS SONG IS SO GOOD CHARLIE IT SLAPS IM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!!

[@DiamondTheGamer]

Dude i just have so much appreciation for Charlie for how much he’s put forth for this song he’s used Hamilton, Star Wars, Breath of The Wild, and even Open Up Your Eyes was kinda Star Wars-ish to me and i really love how he saw Samurai Jack kind of in the style, just so much appreciation to the animator and there’s just so much to thank charlie for his efforts towards this song and for how long he’s done it for and it’s really awesome to see him go through how he did and go BTS , Charlie is awesome and i hope he stays amazing forever and hope he has great days💙💙🙏🏻 (also i really hope Quackity sees this!!!)

[@matthiasvandewetering2921]

[@funyunfinnyun]

Charlie I am so glad you put so much raw emotion into this song. Quackity is a ticking time bomb of anger, guilt, greed, and everything in between. He looks cool and collected on the outside, but you just know he's ready to explode inside. His emotions are raw, even messy and the fact you honed in on his anger and despair really makes it special. Everything about the music is so organic and full of emotions, just like his lore. In the end, he's an actor, he's a manipulator, and he's power hungry, so to make this Broadway esk swing orchestral ballad lets that fact really shine through. He only cares about his legacy, the path to glory, and he doesn't want you to forget it. You are a mere pawn to Quackity and every interaction should feel like this grandiose big meeting with an absolute and utter villain. The orchestra blaring is like his "turning the chair" moment in his office. Still, he's lonely and hurting. Slime was the only good thing he had left, and it showed. I firmly believe he blames himself for Slimecicle leaving. Las Nevadas is going to crumble because Slime was the only thing holding it together. Without Slime, Quackity has to mask his emotions. He keeps this act up as king, but one day, that act is going to break. He's going to explode, leaving everything in flames. Your song is not only a reflection of the lore that happened, but quite possibly the lore to come. Keep building your legacy, Charlie. I can't wait to see what you do next.

[@alextheprankstermind1894]

This was amazingly chaotic. Everything fits Quackity so well!!

I felt so happy when this song released like when I watched it, it was only an hour after it was premiered and I was actually at school during lunch at that time and when I say I felt SO happy I really meant it.

13:36 i cry so much after that

[@beatissimo]

at 3:30 when you mentioned star wars as an inspiration for the orchestral interlude, that inspiration was portrayed perfectly! in the song, the second that i heard the build-up following the scene with slimecicle (correct me if i’m wrong, but i think it’s horns that come in at that part), my first thought was “ooh, that has star wars vibes to it.”

[@B.0.B]

This was such a good song!

[@AkiraRyuzn2010]

"All good things come to those who wait," and "Rome wasn't built in a Day," are two quotes I can think of for the production of this song and how the fans were eagerly waiting for it to come. ...while I had patiently waited until it arrived, on my Birthday, no less... After seeing Quackity's story through the song and how the music ties into his feelings, I must say, I feel his pain. His strive to succeed. His struggles and shortcomings and how he would overcome them using others help(at least it looks from my perspective), I must say this is more than a song. This is a story in musical form and the way that you, Bryan and your crew, as well as DICEShimi did a magnificent job with making. I applaud for your dedication and motivation to make this song such a beautiful piece of art for the eyes and ears. Bravo!!! Bravo!!! Bravissimo!!!! 😆👏👏👏👏👏👏
