PW:AA Detention Cell Theme - "Jailer's Elegy"

[magicmiloticftw]

Smile. You're on candid camera.

[TekashiMeikute]

I just thought of something... I was wondering what if that guard is actually a costume, and it's not moving cause the person inside is dead just like Jack Hammer o.o

[WoWkemon90]

That guard never moves. He's a real pro.

Or maybe he's just stunned by Will Powers...

[Singularity125]

Smile for the camera...

[masterplusmargarita]

Probably the most important room in all of PW, except for the courtroom, of course.

[Soroxas98]

Phoenix: *the guard never moves!*

Guard: What!

Phoenix: Nothing!

[DenverBroncos81795]

I always picture Edgeworth when hearing this.

[ZLFaurora]

This and Examination - Allegro 2001 are my favorite Ace Attorney songs.

The Detective That came From The Wild West is a close third.

[energysteven]

Greeny Phatom Little Guy Intro

[corjonbett]

Smile. You're on candid camera!

[C0DESUB]

Remids me of Edgy's sad theme.

Wait, this IS Edgy's sad theme..

[ocarinafan100]

@C0DESUB No its not.

[cmndrkool321]

This song is one of the reasons I love the Phoenix Wright series. I got a serious poison oak rash that was the worst the doctor has seen in his career; and I had to stay in the basement all day and for five days rather than go to work. I decided to try the Phoenix Wright series to pass time. Seeing Maya arrested and in the Detention Center really got to me. We were both depressed and locked away from society. Everytime I hear this, I am remined of that moment; and how I can relate to them.

[chelseafcrocks82]

*sniff* Edgeworth...

[SgtCrumpet]

Whenever I encounter a depressing scenario in real life, I think of this song...

[r4shka]

This theme reminds me of a small part od Seiken Densetsu 3 alias Secret of Mana 2's intro...

[tachola]

*What happens if you click the camera in the corner*

"Smile, you're on candid camera"

[Drone911]

Only reminds me of Edgeworth in the detention center D:

[guardianforce1]

The guard is just standing there.....i feel bad for him O;

[canthandlemystyle]

@Drone911 gyakuten saiban?

[ArtificialliHappii]

No Maya D: Your inocent! ; -; Why won't they believe? :P Lolz

[ATopHatt]

Probably the saddest jail theme out of all of the games, in my opinion. Almost every case, you just felt terrible for the people who were stuck behind those bars.

[SheIIyDeKiller]

When the earthquake happened in Case 4 of AA, that guard still stood there. A real pro. D:

[PokeNaruBleach]

@SheIIyDeKiller Me thinks the guard is not real.

[Firegodot]

that poor guard sure was like O.O' evrytime he saw maya turn into Mia XP

[likitty20]

*crys* this is my cousins jail theme, he is in jail :'(

[guardianforce1]

@likitty20 Why is he in jail!? D:

[likitty20]

@guardianforce1 for murder

[Drone911]

@likitty20 I bet 1 Million Pretzels that your cousin is not in jail -_-

[guardianforce1]

@likitty20 I want to ask why he did that....but i think it gonna be a hard question :(

[LexLight1]

@guardianforce1 I hope that your cousin's not declared Guilty... :(

[Reyson129]

*learns on keyboard*

*plays alongside YouTube video*

Wow. It's 10 times better when you're playing along.

[Zero121090X]

" Sorrow..walks the guilty road,

As you face the world alll..alone.

But then...You lose your fear,

Your knight is finallyyy...here.

He won't give up...he won't back down,

He's Always on your side.

He won't have doubts, he won't question Whatever truth he finds,

He's there to get guilt out of mind."

[AceAcetate]

Whenever I hear this song I think of Phoenix approaching Edgeworth at the beginning of Case 4; His long lost friend is sitting behind the window of the room as if the room represented the cold image he had covered himself up with, and the fearful and insecure child is being exposed.

This song is a poem.

[supermatx]

It says: 'You can fight or surrender, sometimes is better to surrender'

[Kingofeurope]

This is depressing because of the guard. This song is really about him.

[1xadavid]

This NEEDS to be played on a Grand Piano and be put on Youtube.

Also needs a extended version :)

[yawn133337]

This song captures the environment of the cell so well. Possibly one of the most fitting songs in the game and one of the most well made too.

[MrWaka3]

I only really started noticing this song until I saw Edgeworth sitting in sorrow...Poor Edgers...

[reaxsan]

This song is so precious. Makes my heart break, but during the more cheerful part of the song I hear that hope, that little melody that keeps me thinking, "they're innocent". ;A;

[liamnaruto]

in aai *makes feel ewdorth has DL-6

i have turnabout airlines *has feeling for certian villlian

[naruto1234572635]

I've been looking for the song that plays when Maggey is in the Detention center in the 3rd case for PW:T&T

[naruto1234572635]

@naruto1234572635 Found It, Its the JFA version.

[JordanBukikosa]

Ughh, this is effectively one of the top three most depressing songs in the series. Anotherr would be that one girl's I think it's Furio Tigre's daughter or something like that

[Flameclaw123]

@JordanBukikosa You mean Viola? Lol she's not his daughter. It's "Reminiscence: What others have seen" Or "Reminiscence: I blame you."

[JordanBukikosa]

@Flameclaw123 I know this is from a lonnngg time ago, but yeah, you're right. Ms. Cadaverini, grand daughter of Bru?? Cadaverini. So sad what happened.

[MrSuperfactory]

Hearing this makes me want to give Maya a hug if shes crying < :' )

[Deaththekid980]

lol, that guard must have it touch.

[NiNtenBricK]

This always reminds me of Will Powers.

[ButterPacket]

It's kinda sad listening to the song while Edgeworth is crushed about the DL-6 incident

[VHudgensFan19]

This always makes me soo sad

[HammerSpace9]

The cadenza version of this is AWESOME.

[iddchris]

Guard: I need other work...

[xgoodix]

Damn, I'm almost crying just listening to this song, it 's so sad ! :'(

[mrslovvet]

Reminds me of Valant...

[TheOniKami]

I bet the guard is British.

You know, not allowed to smile or show any emotion what so ever.

[Coihy]

i dont get it

[inamerica55585]

He's actually just a mannequin.

[Kingofeurope]

I bet that guard knows EVERYTHING about the storyline of all the games, he witnessed all of it.

[Dragon7F1]

@Kingofeurope Guard: *thinks* I probably would make a fortune if I created a game about the cases I hear here... *makes a phone call* Yes, Capcom? I have a suggestion for a game..."

[Seikufu]

@Kingofeurope That camera too.

[mrslovvet]

*sniff* Memories...

[inlazlowetrust]

This soundtrack expresses the sadness of being captured, and locked up.

T_T

[xcookiepixiex]

I think this is the most depressing of all themes. T__T

[7ruthie]

@xcookiepixiex No, The T&T One Is Much Sadder!

[7ruthie]

@xcookiepixiex In Fact Never Mind What I Said About Elegy Of The Captured, This Song Is An Upbeat Song With A Sad Title When Compared To Apollo Justice's Detention Centre Theme.

[beautifulbranden]

This Song Makes Me Think Of Sad Stuff...

Like Some Phoenix Wright Sad Stuff Or Real Like Sad Stuff.......

[bearsaremyfav]

This song reminds me of Trace Memory for some reason.

[electroboy2007]

...

your kidding right

[Ap0ske]

I know why Antelopgrl didn't put any character in front of the jail.

He wants us to think about the elegy of the guard, who has to stand there night and day, not moving an inch, guarding the door.

:'(

[AmethystBunny]

Or she doesn't want to spoil the people who haven't played the game...

...but I like what you said better XD

[PhoenixWrightMaster]

Poor guard... I feel so bad! (It's actually kinda creepy how he NEVER moves...)

[leviathan270]

I think the guard has swine flu. RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

[mememe123123]

its funny, if you examine him each time there's a new defendant, wright will usually have a new sarcastic joke at ready.

[DanielSmith604]

Same goes for the plant in his office and i think the law books as well. Something about him saying "maybe i should read these someday"

[mememe123123]

lol and yet, when examining the camera it usually stays the same:

"smile, you're on candid camera."

or

"smile, you're on camera."

[PXLightXD]

@Ap0ske that is depressing

[Ap0ske]

@PXLightXD

It's even more depressing that back then I didn't know that Antelopgrl was a girl, so I wrote "He".

Now this typo will forever stay on top of the comments, alone, waiting to get edited, but without any hope.

:'(

[scottm1211]

@Ap0ske The only way to save it is either spam it or delete I suggest spam so it isn't dead

[Naverpace]

@Ap0ske a real pro, that guy.

[EugineTheFairy]

OH THE MEMORIES.

Don't they play this in other games too? Or maybe it's just me...

Perhaps it's just that I remember this one best...

[Melotha]

Yeah, they do actually. I think they played it in Apollo Justice, as well as parts of Justice for All.

[VideoGaming4Dummies]

Perhaps the saddest detention center theme in the series.... IMO.

It just brings about a depressing atmosphere...

[gocrazed1]

*tear* IM SORRY MAYA!!!

[narutoroxoutloud]

Smile for the camera...

[VenVanilla]

aww this song always made me sad ;-;

[jssharks]

Case 4

[jssharks]

Hey don't forget this song is in Apollo Justice in Case 5

[blackrose4920]

this song is truly one of the best in the first game.

[L33tsaber]

This is one of my favorite songs in the series, even though it keeps bringing me to tears.

(And then I always end up feeling really guilty whenever I move directly from the Detention Center to an area where "Turnabout Sisters" or "Congratulations, Everybody" is playing...)

[NOSFERATUalu]

when i hear this i think of powers and his ''sniffs''

its sad, nice song

[timdevries1003]

When I hear this song I think of Edgeworth, when he was in the jail in 1-4

[kyleechic]

This is my favorite detention center theme

It reminds me of when i was talking to Maya in the second case

*sniff*

[ash735]

What is the actual name of this track? I've seen it mainly as "Detention Hall ~ Guards Elegy", other times "Detention Center ~ Guards Elegy" and now here "Jailer's Elegy"

[IVitaminWater]

I think it's originally jailer's elegy, not guard's elegy.

[HKichen]

Really sad... When an innocent person is locked up when the real evil one is still on the run. What justice does it serve?

[JonnotheHedgehog]

Smile for the camera.

[mynameisyibble]

OMG I almost forgot this theme...been so long since I played the first game. Strangely, it makes my throat choke. In a sad way. Not like crying though. Hard to explain..

[Elinie]

you just have to love the Guard :D

[xXxArcAngelAnetxXx]

This song reminds me of a sad love story...

[shikamarunara24]

This theme is so sad ;_; but i like it

[Antelopgrl]

Sure! Just lemme know which ones! :D

[elsteveo14]

Every time I see this sceen I think one thing... "What's with the guard? Is he actually getting paid to just stand there?"

[Antelopgrl]

Yeah, I always examine the guard and see what he's up to. xD

[blastoiselover]

<_< Moar like checking out the waitresses.

[OniLinkPower22]

I didn't really like the Jail theme for JFA, but they did use it on the Third case of T&T, but overall I think this one is my favorite

[ChaoPrince]

How about the jail theme for the other two games?

[Antelopgrl]

I'll try.

[ChaoPrince]

Yeah sorry, my computer glitched and I wasn't sure if my first message went through.

[ChaoPrince]

How about the theme for the third game. I think it has the word Lament in its name.

[Antelopgrl]

Alright, I'll look.
