  • I was taking a dump while listening to this and it made me fell my dump would determine the fate of the world

  • everytime i listen to this it makes me watch the godfather

  • When I hear the Amen of Lacrimosa, it's almost like the gates of Heaven are opening to me...

    God, it's so beautiful.

  • Beautiful! I get chills just listening to this exquisite piece.

  • Happy birthday Johannes Mozart.

    

  • i think that there will never be a genious like mozart. he was and will ever be unique in what he did for music and it´s development.

  • I liked this piece before I knew the translation.

  • what a spectacular yet sublime sound!

  • Lacrimosa comes from Latin Lacri which means tear..... Dacri is the equivalent Greek word.

  • sooo fantastic... amaziing, beauty ...

    

  • this song makes me cry. not cos im sad but cos there is too much feeling it has to get out of me somehow

  • Thank's for this post. A brilliant one with remarkable sounding. This is the one which dragged me toward orchestra stuff.

  • When I heard this song for the first time this morning, I imagined the inside of a massive Old English church, much like the walls of a dark mysterious castle, with shadowed, black walls and red drapes and carpeting. Candles glowed dimly and the coffin of an old man lay upon the altar alone, statues of angelic beings towering above it in front of a stained glass window many times its size. This song has incredible power over me. I could not believe the awe that overwhelmed me.

  • I listen to this song when I am crying because that is what it is for

  • beautiful song. Also, by the way, is one of the background songs in Anno 1613 lol!

  • @jakoplant1

    1503 you mean, right? I also remember :)

  • we get so sing this in chorus for own spring concert it should be amazing!!

  • I love your drawing.it's soooo brutal and true and pure... like Mozart's Lacrimosa

  • such a good song!!!!!!!!!! AAAHHHHH i love it. what a great movie as well; it makes my heart swell up with such emotion.

  • Mozart: the original rock music that actually made you feel something.

  • The first picture shows a gold string, depicted in many "astral projection" type myths/stories.

    Once cut, the user of the string dies.

    True beauty.

  • magnifico esto si es arteeeeeeeeeeeeee, sublime me deja sin palabras =)

  • How were u able to translate the words from Latin to English....

  • i have to say, i much prefer the slower version... it really allows the melody to ferment and spread inside you, especially the crescendo section. just a masterwork.

  • @BonzaiBillie1 Ooh, I don't know of a slower version, which one do you mean? I always listen to the same interpretation over on Deezer so this is the speed I'm used to for the entire Requiem.

  • @Bennuist search "Mozart - Requiem - Karl Bohm" on youtube. Enjoy !

  • 62 people are SALIERI!

  • I would really like to know what inspired Mozart to write such a piece! It's totally Majestic, but the lyrics are also kinda creepy! =S... Beautiful,.. in one word

  • magnifique!

    

  • Devil May Cry 3 theme song stole the front part

  • DMC3

  • This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. Mozart was a true genius. I love the tune of the part where they say Lacrimosa at the beginning. :)

    Evanescence did a cover of this song called Lacrymosa, which is also a brilliant piece. Opera sounds so awesome and epic with guitars! :D

  • I wish I didnt take that second hit

  • beautiful, meaningful and uplifting. Art

  • this is music!

  • @Jipzorowns It truly is!!!

  • I think this piece, the 'Lacrimosa' is perhaps the most beautiful piece of music ever composed by man.  Thank you for posting it with the translation.

  • @pearlyone1 idk Ave Maria is pretty tear-jerking

  • 62 human are not human

  • I think Globus took part of this song in "Diem ex Dei"

  • @ihatepokemon12 not true, i am in high school and i listen to Mozart, Bach And Vivaldi!

  • @TheGreatKingofChaos ME AS WELL!..well I listen to classical at times with no discrimination :P

  • most people who listen to this are in college lol

  • No song on earth effects me like this one does. I literally don't know who I am or what to do with myself after I listen to this. Everything else seems shallow and pointless. This, my friends, is art.

  • @1491juliene1491 *affects, or alternately *has this effect on me.

  • @1491juliene1491 Kinda puts it into perspective when the nerd fanboys claim that video games are art. Yeah, cause Halo and this are on the same par, lol

  • @Nelsonhojax15 That's funny because video games can be on the same playing field as Mozart at times, in terms of visual art. A lot of games also have amazing soundtracks that are on par with Wolf Gangs work.

  • @PridefulDawn Well the soundtrack would be the soundtrack, something to be judged on it's own, as well as the graphic interface. I'm not saying video games can't blow you away in terms of style and sound, but they're games, you go in to them expecting to get a competitive thrill out of them, which is all fine. Art isn't about cheap competitive thrills, it's about being moved in a special way, whether through painting, music, etc. And I'm sorry but there is no video game on par with mozart.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 Coming from an enthusiastic gamer and classical music fan, I agree. No video game (or video game composer) could ever equal Mozart. Luckily, I doubt any would be arrogant enough to try. I do believe that video games can be art, however. I've played many games that I thought were deeply emotionally moving, especially in the indie genre. With that said, I wouldn't dream of equating them with Mozart (or Bach or Liszt or Beethoven or Brahms or Mahler or Rembrandt or Dali or Da Vinci)

  • @BlobicusPrime Y'know, I don't think it's impossible for video games to become art in the future. If they continue to follow the paths set by games like Heavy Rain, etc., I think that it could become more then just a competition, but a real moving, immersing experience. Like a movie that you control. I'm just saying right now, video games, at least most video games, are not "art." Thanks for the kudos though!

  • Comment removed

  • @Nelsonhojax15 actually it is completely about competitive thrills the multimillion price tags these so called works of art carry are proof, tell me if you feel moved by a picture of cans of soup or a toilet. Also do you judge a clock by it's individual gears?

    Have you never played Okami? People that don't know anything about games shouldn't talk about them.

  • @GrimHeaperThe Look, it's not the price-tag that identifies art, it's the experience. Creativity and beauty culminating in an extravaganza celebrating the human soul. That is how I would define true art. While I am personally not moved by every painting or sculpture, what my point is that right now, there is no video game that can be equated with Mozart, Michaelangelo, Shakespeare, etc. Have you ever even been to an art museum? Those who don't know anything about art, shouldn't talk about them.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 Yes I have it's called the Smithsonian and it happens to have video games on display and 5 playable ones.

    Maybe you should use the internet and look up "Duchamp" and then tell me it's art to my face because it's considered art.

  • @GrimHeaperThe "The Smithsonian?" There's more then just one idiot! Duchamp's work and ideas are some pretty deep stuff and I doubt that neither you nor any other gamer has thoughts of indifferent art when you play call of duty. I'm not saying video games aren't a huge part of modern culture, or that they haven't contributed to the world as we know it right now. But I am saying that video games, as of now, cannot be art. This is due to the fact that they are competition based GAMES!

  • @Nelsonhojax15 It's what the museum is called deal with it,

    I don't play anything competitive based so, so much for that point, you are lumping people together as well you are no better than a racist.

    All Duchamp's works did is made it to where anything can be art.

    Hey people also sell their 5 year old's paintings as art when it's just paint flinged on canvas. I hope you won't claim that something a 5 year old flung onto canvas has more thought than COD.

  • @GrimHeaperThe You don't even understand Duchamp. I'm not going to fight with you on that, if everything is art then nothing is. Know your stuff before you say it. At this point you're heaving charges of racism and child cruelty on me, and your nerdy fanboyism has completely taken over whatever remote form or argument you started out there. I don't care if YOU think video games are art or not, I have simply been explaining why I, as of right here and now, do not think that video games are art.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 "your nerdy fanboyism has completely taken over whatever remote form or argument you started out there." There it is again that bullshit again that's no better than racism.

    It doesn't matter if you don't think video games are art the fact of the matter is they are.

  • @GrimHeaperThe I cannot believe you're equating the fact that I don't agree with you as racism. That's so ridiculous it's insulting. Racism is treating people poorly solely because of the color of their skin. That has NOTHING to do with anything we've been talking about. I think it's pretty lame of you to claim that video games are art, not just that you believe that. That's like saying "I don't care if you don't think Spy Kids was a good movie, it was!" I'm entitled to my opinion.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 Actually it's "I don't care if you don't think Spy Kids was a movie, it was!"

    I never claimed they were good art, saying something is art doesn't mean it's good it just means it's art.

    I said like racism, ever watch revenge of the nerds?

    I'm talking that shit there preppy highschool clique bullshit that picks on a certain group of people for liking things and fixing stereotypes on them.

  • @GrimHeaperThe Ugh, what on Earth are you going on about? Who said I was a "preppy highschooler?" I like video games, but I don't consider them to be works of art, RIGHT NOW. I have said before, I think they have the potential to grow into an art form, but just because you like something, doesn't mean you get to call it art, good or bad. And I assume because you like video games, you would consider them good art! I like cheese, someone had to make it, that DOESN'T make it art.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 Not all games are competition based. Do you know what it takes to even make a game? Artists.. It takes creativity and skill to draw concept art or design a level to strike different emotions in a player (isnt that what art is all about?)

    Of course not all games are made equal. The same care and attention isnt put in all games but the same can be said about paintings and music. Art is in the eyes of the beholder.

  • @gordon1201 Did you pay attention to my earlier comments? I said that if games continue to follow the forms of things like "Heavy Rain" then it is very possible that games could evolve into a real art form. But just because someone designed the game board of monopoly, doesn't mean that it's art. If you're trying to say that Graphic artists work on video games, then yes, that is correct. But I'm talking about contributions to humanity here. Mozart, the renaissance, etc.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 except you know heavy rain isn't even a good demonstration.

  • @GrimHeaperThe Hey friendo, keep to your own arguments and stay out of other ones. Seriously, are you like, the video game crusader or something? Go back to your 4-chan forums and bitch to them.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 You just keep missing I don't go to 4-chan either.

    I'm for being correct that is all.

  • @GrimHeaperThe Oh you're for being correct, I'm so sorry, I thought you were just trolling me, you wanna be right! I would have never thought that! It's rare these days to find someone who is for being correct, I sure as hell wasn't trying to be correct or anything like that. My opinions are meaningless oh omnipotent one! Seriously man, get over yourself.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 I'm glad you agree.

  • @GrimHeaperThe I do agree, you do need to get over yourself. At this point you've descended into the "I know you are but what am I" field of comebacks, so I'm going to go and claim victory here.

  • @Nelsonhojax15 He thinks he's winning something.

  • @GrimHeaperThe Well we are arguing are we not? And I would hope you are somewhat familiar with the concept of winning an argument. And...who are you talking to? He? You replied to my comment!

  • @Nelsonhojax15 I just find it funny the one complaining about things being competition based falls to it so easily.

  • @GrimHeaperThe Oh..my..GOD! What the hell is wrong with you? I said I thought video games were disqualified from being art due to the competitive nature, I never said I was against competition, or that competition wasn't fun, etc. Honestly, it's like talking to a dim-witted 1st grader. It's like you take the smallest part of a sentence and try and make an argument. Racism? anti-competition? Get a fucking brain-cell you moron!

  • @Nelsonhojax15 Do you also disqualify comics and movies as an art as well?

    How about you shed the ignorance you have right now by going over to penny arcade and watching every extra credits episode.

  • i played angry birds while listening to this and it was like a big disaster happening, i felt sorry for the pigs :(

  • @danieldesouzaramos you really should sing them this, and they'll have their rest in the other world...

  • Everybody stop with the bieber comments...Even im writing one now -.-.Just relax and listen to the good music and dont mind him..

  • Like Leonardo and the many that followed, Mozart was a true genius that added something permanent to mankind's consciousness.

  • 60 people are deaf or justin bieber fan...

  • today is been 220 years that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart died... :(

  • I just realize that if anyone one of Yall in these comments. This was played in big o

  • This song is great and very dark sounding. Latin is also a very beautiful language

  • Now I understand all those people who says that you become smarter when you listen to this artist's music.

  • All u posers saying you're gonna play it at your funeral are annoying. I actualy went thru with it and had them play it at my funeral. The wifi in the afterlife is pretty good.

  • What an amazing peace of art.

  • I want this to be played at my funeral. and no, I'm not just making a dumb ass comment- I've seriously figured it in there already.

  • @AbsinthianEnvy I would like too !

  • A fitting image.

  • When the road of mankind comes to its fateful end,

    I hope into the stars this one last song we send.

  • @Haruharu655 you're right. Lala's lullaby is the same of Lacrimosa -3 I Loooooovee!!! ( Sorry for the bad english... But i'm italian ^_^"" )

  • EXCELLENT performance. Bravo.

    Vynikajúci výkon. Bravo.

  • Thanks for posting the lyrics. I now sing this in the shower, and freak out the people in my dorm.

  • @ispinintights The image this brings to mind makes me cackle. It's just a dorm hallway, with muffled singing while the shower runs, and one by one students pop their heads out and look at one another.

  • @silverchyld Lol that's pretty accurate, not going to lie. Luckily they're all friendly. :) And HOLY CRAP I didn't realize my comment had so many likes. I feel special.

  • @ispinintights Really???? That's funny and cool! xD

  • nice drawing

  • 00:40 HOMO... lolol!!!

    trollface.jpg

  • @DackIsBack HOMO means "human beiing" stupid idiot

  • @Victor20376 Homo does not mean human being you idiot.

  • @stayeducated1 & @Archeon: In order to understand Latin, you have to study the symbolics of it... Text: "Judicandus Homo reus" (0:50 m) -> guilty man (AND WOMAN) te be judged !!! Of course "man AND woman" because BOTH, Adam & Eve were (according to the bible), both, the first sinners.

    Women are NOT animals, you know, the are "human beiings" too... even "equal to men" (unless you are followers of mo-the-pedo).

  • @Victor20376

    no dumbass homosapien means "human being"

  • @Archeon233 Nevertheless... Pontius Pilatus spoke the words: "ecce homo" when he showed Jesus (after he was flogged/whipped/crowned), to the Jewish crowd.

    "Look at that man/human beiing" at respons to the earlier statement of jesus that he was the son of god... NO GOD, but only ... a common human beiing.

  • @Victor20376

    Well it depends on how you look at it. Christians believe Jesus purposely didn't call on God so to say so they could be saved. Others say Jesus wasn't the Messiah but just a prophet. Still others believe he didn't exist and that the bible was just society's way of telling us "Straighten your act up" And there's other ways of looking at it.... I am fairly new to learning latin and I can see your point now so I apologize.

  • @Archeon233

    There's also the word Judicandus which if I'm correct means "Judge" I also believe it invokes the traitor Judas... but it's just a theory

  • @Archeon233 Excuses accepted and your first reaction buried in the sand of the Northsea. I'm glad that you learned the lesson of NEVER taking a word "litterally" but allways in the contex of a sence. I hope that your further studies will be succesful, and... remember: nil volentibus arduum. { nothing is impossible for those who (have the will to achieve their goal)} (^_-)

    Greeting from Zeebrugge, Vlaanderen (the Dutch-speaking north of Belgium.

  • @DackIsBack IDIOT. lol

  • @daddyleon

    Come now. I wish you wouldn't bring up "there is no god". You don't know, I don't know, so leave people to admire music and express their delight through divinities.

  • @DreamTonight1

    I fully agree.

    I listen and I am waiting...

    @ametista

  • Mozart only wrote the first 8 bars of this. Just sayin'

  • Amo la música, sin duda Mozart, es uno de los mas grande compositores de todos los tiempos, al oir este video emergen mil emociones, tanto provoca que he llorado.

    Sé que el subir un video les lleva dedicación y tiempo, por ello agradezco infinitamente...Gracias.

  • he found god's iPod

  • Sublime!

  • "Are you surprised at my tears, Sir?"

    "Dude, fucken aye!"

    "Strong men also cry... strong men also.. cry."

  • there is before and after of listening Mozart Requiem...?

    

  • THUMBS UP for evanescence bringing you here

  • Press like IF walter from fringe brought u her ^^

  • @crostthefrostt He didn't, but Fringe is awesome, so you get a thumbs up from me. I came here because it was mentioned in the FAQ of the Symphony X site.

  • @T3HM3T4L hi do you know what part of the requiem is Walter listening Fringe s4e2?

  • @2tanyeri Sorry man, I have absolutely no idea as I'm still on the very first episodes of season 1 XD and I'm not a classical music buff, so I'm afraid I can't help, sorry! D=

  • @T3HM3T4L i m not the only one in tube who s wondering the answer so pls let us know if u find out...thnx

  • @2tanyeri if you'll link me the episode and timeframe maybe I'll recognize it

  • @enkydu1 12:50

    i cant post the link here?! so i ve messaged to you

  • Es una melodía espléndida, mas que al requiem, es digna de la eternidad:)

  • at 2:33 the walls in my room start to warp in and out of reality, I believe Mozart is opening a Temporal Rift leading to unknown dimensions ...

  • I believe Mozart repented of his belonging to the Occult Freemasons and began work on music for God instead, upon doing this they murdered him right after this song, but he got this one in good and proper before they did ... he went out with an almighty BANG, as you can hear his cry to God inside the sounds .... spine chilling ... (12 semitones in music, 12 tribes of israel, 12 apostles, 12 strands in human DNA, 12 hours on clock, 12 months in a year, 12 star signs .. the truth is everywhere...)

  • @KoolSoftware 12 strands in human DNA? LOL. Don't get your science mixed up with "2012 is near" stories.

  • Lacrimosa actually means to cry with tears, not trying to nitpick or anything.

  • Bad ass drawing dudr do u mind if I get that as a tatto?

  • i know this song from evanescence who made a song with the same name and music but i was taken by the music i just had to hear the original ...amazing !!

  • @yossra93 i remember reading something on that, apparently mozart inspired her to do most of her music. 

  • @mindatwillight really?? thats awesome .
