Thomas Bergersen - Starvation

[@TwoStepsFromHell-Official]

Dear fans and supporters, this is Thomas Bergersen from TSFH. Thank you so much for listening! ❤ Even though TSFH has officially ended, please don't worry, I will continue to compose and release music like this on my new KZbin channel. Please make sure you follow me to hear more, learn about future concert dates, and interact with me. See you there! www.youtube.com/@thomasbergersenmusic

[@decafjava8565]

People just randomly finding this song are certainly confused by comments either mentioning the Greek version of Survivor, the Dr. Who 50th anniversary fan video (about 6 years ago now!) or Bulgarian singers (who are the chorus). You don't need to understand any of it to know this is awesome!

This sounded AWESOME in Doctor Who: The First Question. No matter how overly dramatic it is, it still gives me chill every time I hear it.

[@MissKateSamuels]

Nobody- Part 1 0:00-0:20 In the middle of a forest Sezja lay unconscious. Wind blew eerily through her hair, and colorful bruises formed on her body. She had just been in a fight and barely escaped! 0:21-0:35 Awakening, she shivered in pain. She could hear the enemy looking for her! She tried to rise but collapsed; she was strengthless! 0:36-0:52 Hallucinating from the pain, memories flooded her. She was an outsider and had just entered the broken country. A child with beautiful eyes begged, "Can you help us?" But Sezja ignored her. The next day she watched soldiers come and attack the people, stealing and killing as they pleased... Later she found the little girl dead, her beautiful eyes still pleading... 0:53-1:12 Sezja deeply regretted her apathy, she should have helped her. Driven by this, she felt new strength surge within. Rising to her feet, she picked up her sword. The little girl's face remained in her mind. Ahead was a fortress, the target where she would seek justice. However, the soldiers she had engaged with earlier found her. "There she is!" Taking a deep breath, Sezja raised her weapon. "Kill her!"

Nobody- Part 5 3:29-3:49 Jumping to his feet, Lucian stared at her, wide eyed; blood ran down his face. No one had ever marked him before! The surprised look on his face encouraged her. "Given up?" She weakly chuckled. Intimidated, he cried, "Who are you?!" She smiled sadly, "I'm nobody" "Sir?" His men cried. He ignored them, pride clouded his mind. "LET'S END THIS!" Driven, Sezja charged first this time, her hair danced with the wind. 3:50-4:00 The warriors ran at each other; their lips curled back with rage. Lucian roared and vaulted in the air. Using the last of her strength, Sezja followed. As they clashed, they thrust their blades forward.

[@BGlady]

That awkward moment when you understand the lyrics and they have nothing to do with the title of the song or the feeling the music invokes. P.S. Yes, it's Bulgarian. Song title Айшинко, пиля шарено (Aishinko, little colorful bird). Old Bulgarian is hard to translate, so if someone thinks they can do it, here are the lyrics: Айшинко, пиля шарено, кутра ща вечер да дойдам със шишо вино червено и друго с бяла ракия. Със карар сипвай виното и ракияна, че вино шъко не знае и ракия с ножъ играе. Айшинко, пиля шарено

[@Anthony-yd5bo]

Aishinko, colourful bird, tonight I'll come with a bottle of red wine and another one with white rakia (rakia is a fruit brandy popular in the Balkans). Sip the wine and the rakia with measure, because the wine does not know boundaries and rakia plays with the knife. Aishinko, colourful bird. Tried to translate as accurate as possible but, since it's hard to translate from the old Bulgarian dialects, it may be a bit wrong. However, I think you can get the main idea. :)
