【Princessemagic】Song of the Ancients (Atonement) [NieR:Automata]

[@schnader]

I just assumed this was Automata's version of the song until I read this was actually a cover. I'm even more impressed now, great job on singing in an "unreal" language, not many people can pull this off.

[@princessemagic]

AAAH thank you so much!

[@Manhsterz]

Same here, I thought it was the original version, then I looked down at the comments and read yours. I realized it was a cover ! Well, the cover is exquisite

[@ReynaldRam]

i thought this was sang by the japanese singer one

[@ohheyshadow5860]

Wait I didn't even know until now

[@khatdubell]

It took me a minute. Literally. About a minute in i was like.....is this a new version? Good job though.

[@sebastiandelajara2798]

Me: singing this song The demon I have summoned: what are you doing?

[@arturogallardo8241]

Jajajajaja and asking, what did you say about my mother?

[@karbohydrates1842]

Pretty sure the demon is crying too

[@creativebusinessunit7506]

I thought this was just a lyric video, but then I realized after a minute that the voice singing sounded different. Really good cover, your voice is stellar!

[@ThisJustOne]

wait.... WHAT

[@princessemagic]

HAHA awh, that's the best compliment for me, thank you SO so much ♥

[@バンド楽しいうさぎ大好き]

A song with no known meaning has more meaning. Beautifully sang!

[@ilonachan]

@@nekoniyah that's not necessarily true. In fact I think the interview quotes I read from Emi Evans (she was the one who wrote the songs, right?) said that she basically just took sounds and syllables from existing languages, and shifted them around in ways that sounded nice. Didn't even necessarily start with a real text, and ESPECIALLY didn't need to construct a whole conlang. The reason why this "Chaos Language" sounds so structured isn't because there's structure there: it's because it's been made by a skillful musician who knows how to make it SOUND like there's structure there.

[@KadukuTena]

@@ilonachan oh is that why it sounds like german and japanese at the same time?

[@sinchiniofc]

​@@KadukuTenaNot just German and Japanese, but also Hungarian, Welsh, French and Latin

[@KadukuTena]

@@sinchiniofc yeah im sure theres more but german and japanese are the most recognizable to me

[@SpiderGuy38]

The song actually has a meaning and tells a story, it’s explained in NieR: Replicant :v

I always imagine this song playing during an intense sword fight between two different people with two different Ideals. But not your typical sword fight, something more graceful like fencing

[@InXrtia]

even better, one fights really carelessly while the other fights with technique to really put into perspective the difference of ideals

[@yorha19F]

This song makes me want to cry and start running a lot at the same time

[@yuyahakari318]

I love how this song plays in the FFXIV Copied Factory raid, it makes the experience so much better

[@AniGaAG]

I have autism-related issues with "distance" from my own emotions, but Song of the Ancients always got to me on some very deep level I don't understand; it gets me to feel intensely whenever I hear it. Your cover managed that as well - it's amazing. Thank you very much for it.

[@jackmcspade6554]

I to have simaler issue regarding autism but nier music gets me right in the feels

[@pingaspearce9403]

Same probably weird but some of the resonances in their voices and the pitch they rise at can be quite moving And can make me quiver with emotion so to speak

[@CaioHenriqueSilvaAlves-nv9ru]

Never played the games, so I assumed this was the actual, original song this whole time, absolutely stunning vocals, keep up the great work!

[@solev657]

Play replicant

[@elysxiia]

Automata is older than replicant bro​@@solev657

[@damienserrurier9418]

Les musiques de Nier Replicant et Automata sont magnifiques, elles parlent avec le cœur, j'adore ça la culture Japonaise, il y a toujours quelque choses à apprendre. C'est magnifique. ❤️❤️❤️

[@thelegendaryoofmaster7729]

I need to say I was clickbaited for the most part, cuz the quality is professional-like. Not many covers have a voice that flows so well with these lyrics. Yet, you made it sound so good I can feel my soul somewhat breathing. I like devola version A LOT and usually use it to sleep, since it makes me feel comfortable and secure. Yours, however, creates a path in my head that leads my thoughts to clarity. I can totally see myself listening to this while looking at the night sky and thinking about my life. What I want to say is... Thank you very much for this cover!

[@justsomeguywithoutalove]

This is the type of songs that would have me holding back 80% of my strength when fighting against a boss, so that I can hear the entire song.

[@iberprox4587]

Seeing A2 really wanting to face all those goliaths machines even when she was tired...it's truly amazing... and the song put me the chills bro, nice song

[@8-bitromance43]

Oh my, I am absolutely gobsmacked. You totally nailed this so incredibly. As many others have pointed out I thought this was the official version at first, until I scrolled down to the comment section lmao. Huge round of applause for this and I look forward to checking out more of your work. Thank you very much for the wonderful time listening

[@musashiden3]

I played Automata when it came out, and I have to say, fan-fucking-tastic job. This is beautiful, well done, and shows a love for the music. I'm just sorry I didnt hear this work of art earlier. I dont normally comment on YT, but in my humble opinion, this is better than the original. You nailed it perfectly.

[@missyuki91]

J’aime tellement cet ost contente d’avoir entendu y’a version Puri !

[@papertowelthe6th105]

Dayum, this cover is better than the original! Epecially with the vocals twice during the song instead of once.

[@axelletbk7910]

Ca rend divinement bien, J'adore ton interprétation !

[@princessemagic]

Ahuehue, merci Tbébéé ~

[@ImWhyMortalsCry]

Gorgeous voice! Even tho this is a cover it's my favourite version. The part from 1:23 to 2:23 just hits me really hard everytime

[@alydev23]

I've loved this song ever since hearing the melody of the chorus sung by Devola at the start of Replicant. To me it's the perfect encapsulation of NieR. Beautiful cover

[@darkmattergaming7618]

you are a goddess trapped in a humans body. my god your talent is beyond measure on this earthly plane....

Haven't been able to go back to the original after hearing this cover. Excellent mixing and harmony. Chills!

[@troubleshootq]

damn lol this is cover?! I just clicked on this since this was on the top of the searches, I didn't even realize it's a cover till I read the comments lmao. Amazing cover fr, I was bamboozled.

[@imperiumdei2281]

So, true story, I was hearing this cuz algorythm and I said "Nah it didnt sound this good in-game, did it?" And even called my husband and everything and we just assumed "Oh post-game badass version I guess". Its a cover. Woooow.

[@Zee-uy5tt]

[@cynayu]

The second voice singing along at the back is like the cherry on top

[@sassaetcie2925]

Un excellent cover d'une OST d'un pur chef-d'oeuvre. Encore un travail PARFAIT qui m'a fait frissonner tout le long ;///;

[@princessemagic]

Mooowhh merci énormément!

[@bharangi]

I love that the song is heavy related to the previous game. *SPOILER* Very sad that Devola and Popola are the guardians of humanity and they failed 7000 years ago. In the Automata they have the same goal again and jumped into the battle without hesitation. When I played first, I didn't understand why they risk their life when they were "exiled" because of the previous events.

[@solev657]

I played replicant but not automata lol

This is absolutely fantastic.... I've been obsessing over the one from Automata and the Fate version from Replicant, but this.... my word, you really encapsulated the emotion that pervades this song. Wonderful work 🥰🥰🥰

[@incognitive9787]

What a wonderful cover. Gave me the same chills I felt the first time I listened to the original. Honestly, I think I prefer this version over the original - I really like that the vocal is more on the forefront compared to the original, which was somewhat overwhelmed by the accompaniment. Voice wise, I think it's fair to say that both voices - the cover and the original have their own elegance to the rendition of the song overall. They feel different, but at the same time so similar.

[@Aneth_Ara]

TaraLPS it's a made up language of like sounds from languages we know like English, Japanese, Spanish, Italian, etc. I think it's supposed to sound like if all those languages had transformed and blended over the years leading up to Nier? At least that's what I kind of remember from trying to figure out what language was being sung when I heard it in Nier all those years ago lol

[@princessemagic]

As Milky said, it's a made up language apparently named "Chaos Language" from Emi Evans! And I think there's basically no mean (by translation) for this song! And thank youuu ~
