You Thought You Knew Me (Villain Song)

[@Shadowblader98]

A song for the twist villain who played the long game, earning the heros trust until the critical moment. Then they slide in the knife of betrayal.

[@JosiahBriggs]

So… Almost any Kirby final boss?

Baldurs gate 3 ,good playthrough, .... but you betray everyone in the end

[@realrickyshea]

Enraged, the hero draws his sword and closes the distance. He pulls back... but can't bring himself to follow through. The villain did not even flinch, just stands there smirking with absolute confidence, knowing that he is in no danger.

[@Ra1d3n-np9lr]

As the hero begins to break down in tears the villain places his hand on his shoulder and then proceeds to jab a dagger right into the hero’s side all while keeping the cold, confident and sadistic smile on his face.

[@Zelk37]

The smile doesn't last long, though. As they try to pull the dagger back, a hand grabs the arm, locking them in place. The sword goes up in a flash, faster than they can react or register, and before they know it..........they both see and feel a sword lodged in their chest, up through their ribs. Looking at the hero's face, all they see now is nothing but a blank mask.........save the eyes, asking a single question: Why?

[@talkingsaladsbooks257]

For some reason I am now imagining a revenge song to compliment this one

[@zakariyamalik1352]

The most interesting way I can think of this is a villain who was a hero BEFORE the story started, but the lives of many they had saved as a hero is dependent on the power siphoned from the villain, not only causing the villain now possible as a fight but causing the victor to cause hundreds, or even thousands of times more fatalities due to his sheer dominance as a hero. Every mocking laughter in fact nostalgia, every smile cracked by guilt, you never knew him. Your darling is where “you placed” your faith before, now being a dagger.

[@zakariyamalik1352]

A broken weapon, neither good nor bad so clearly defined.

[@santinoaguilar8601]

“I watched as you faltered, I studied your fears.” Is totally Eobard Thawne and Terry Silver

[@MysteryRoseWriter]

I love that show!!

[@Andrealphus]

This sounds very much like Varien in Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure.

[@RichrobArtYT]

Oh!😭 Of course! Varien's line is his song is even *"And one day you'll realize that you never actually knew me at all!"*

[@relinia01]

This should've been Han's villain song. Perfect segway to start when he says "if only there was someone out there who loves you". Supposedly his character was based on a mirror in og snow queen story and this would've fit so well❤

[@sybreagregory6059]

A twist villian or a friend who had to become the villain to save the hero's party. "Your blindness your downfall" and up sounds like somewhat sorrowful as if it had to happen in some way. 🤔

[@TIME-fe6ne]

this is exactly what Im writing xDD He is not actually a villain, he just acts that way so that the ones he love wont have to suffer and get blood on their hands. He'll take care of everything on his own, even if it means everyone ends up hating him (it's a fantasy story and he is actually cursed with not being able to lie so he had to put another curse on himself to be able to be the so called villain of the story xD) (It's a lot more cooler than this in the actual story help 😭😭😭😭xDDDDD)

The vocal range and lyrics are really good! I'm wondering why the Villain played the long con, how much did they hate the hero? What for? This is fascinating.

[@TIME-fe6ne]

Sadly the vocals and the music are made by AI but they said they write the lyrics themselves soo I guess it's fine. You might not have the ability to sing and compose music or have the money to hire real musicians but still want to create your songs

[@ChangelingWaves]

⁠@@TIME-fe6nethere are vocaloids for that :/ Suno steals copyrighted songs to train their ai voices and music off of

[@TIME-fe6ne]

@@ChangelingWaves y still need to know how to tune the vocaloids, which is a really hard thing to master. I know that AI just uses stolen shi but it's not like anyone has the power to stop people from using AI. If they want to choose the shortcut, let them use it. It's not lke theyll ever feel the fullfilment of a real artist anyways

[@HPKuro]

How did you figure out it was AI?​@@TIME-fe6ne

[@averiw5926]

@@TIME-fe6ne I hope that’s true, I like the song and was upset when I realized it was AI, but I question whether they do write their own songs, they seem to pop out a new one every time I come on KZbin, which from what I noticed always seems to be how AI song generators operate

[@totodile1545]

this is a wonderful song! It makes me want to see what a song about the villain who tries this but ultimately chooses good and the heroes over betraying them (while still being conflicted) would sound like. Hope to hear more from ya!

[@readerminion6743]

I love a directorial design and I want the whole song up to “designed by me” to play during the confrontation. Then after everything has been done to get the story you had across after “good has concurred all” and the usual positive wrap up has happened have the credits role over a screen of the hero entering a place alone (maybe the very study the confrontation happens) and the rest of the song plays with that last instrumental being the fade to regular credits. Showing that Cassian won. The hero succeeded but Cassian will haunt them the rest of their lives and has truest turned their heart cold because even in their happiest moment of triumph they think of their betrayal.

[@karendebbiejohnson7480]

I feel the villain had once trusted the hero and was betrayed by them somehow. This was the villain's revenge.

[@jacobbabson6786]

I feel like I need to say this just so people know. It isn’t like this channel hides this, but they do use AI in the creation of their songs. If you don’t care that is fine, but know a lot of people (especially those in creative mediums) would not want to support a channel that is using AI when we could listen to music by people. The description of the channel makes it seem that the lyrics are at least man made, but the instrumentals and vocals are Suno AI, so if you don’t support AI now you know.

[@СарраКарагозян]

Adore how the singer sounds deeply hurt by hero's genuine trust and regretful, but also not repentant at the same time. Black Water Sinking Ships-core!

[@TheKoriKasai]

This reminds me of a story I heard (or read?) years ago. Someone was in this big rp group and had a character die or something and felt betrayed. Either that or was banned and joined as someone new. Regardless they had their character be the bar tender. Working and just doing stuff. Secretly amassing a collection of poisoned barrels. After a while when all the people the op were with with the old character were together, he poisoned them all. And with the rules of the server, everything he did was perfectly ok as bad as it was. I wish i could reread or listen to the original, it's so much better then i made it seem

[@kcerasai0469]

There is such conflict in me, listening to this. There is the inner rage at hearing the exact sentiments of the man (Ex-husband; complete narcissist) who abused me for years, using this type of playbook to utterly shatter me.....and then there is my morally grey self finally free years after the escape from that nightmare, growing ever deeper into villain-hood while I create a voice in lieu of the one I never got to have. Every villain has an origin, yeah? I feel like this could be a good revenge arc type of song. If I could do unto the man who hurt me, the way he did unto me, well, I think I'd play this song in the background.
