Gaeta's Lament

[crazy88boss]

I spammed the spoiler comment. *You're welcome*

[IlIl00]

fucking toasters

[Straubinger182]

because he got an arrow in the knee!

[RebornGirl1827]

L :)!!!!

[bdtiger880]

@MayaTheSparklyDino The hybrid, which controls the basestar, gives the order for the Cylon Basestar to go into Faster Than Light travel. Yes, it makes no sense without context.

[TheMelloKun123]

HE IS SO GORGEOUS! <3

[TRMDYLE666]

This episode blew my mind away. Actually, every single episode does :P

[NextKazekage]

IT'S L'S VOICE

[DeugarTheOne]

Such a bitterly ironic song...

[animerulez78628]

Oh My God, L TTATT

[TX51]

@TryHonesty14 then he dies lol

[bdtiger880]

@TX51 Well, most of them die eventually.

[MrCarlosBrazao]

@TryHonesty14 thank you for the spoil you IDIOT

[TryHonesty14]

@MrCarlosBrazao You where searching for battlestar galactica videos on the internet.... what the fuck did you expect?

[MrCarlosBrazao]

@TryHonesty14 i was expecting to hear a specific music, not see a spoiler in the top coments...

[angelwhite]

@TryHonesty14 Put *SPOILER* before you say that, asshole, I'm only partway through this episode, just paused to find the song.

[AngryOctopus4]

That was very moving... I've never even seen the show and I still feel sorry for that him.

Nobody should have to die in pain like that...

[misabellah14]

Man, now I see why I didn't get into the msical last week. I sang this song and the people said it was really creepy.

[ceheape]

One of my favorite scenes from this show. The full orchestrated version actually brought tears to my eyes. This, though... Definitely chills down my spine.

[aviona123]

kinda looks like an older avan jogia from victorious XD

[kwanlifu]

I loved his character but at the last season though I understood his feelings I hated him.

[jemilover2ify]

L <3

[MayaTheSparklyDino]

Can someone please explain to me what was happening at 1:16? I'm one of those Death Note fans, and I love the song, but... I didn't get that at all.

[1nonlyqaise1]

@MayaTheSparklyDino as he is singing, a woman from the cylon (cyborg) ship just got shot. The woman who got shot was trying to create an alliance with the humans. The woman that shouted "jump" is called a hybrid, half human and technology, and I guess she sensed the death when she turned on and got scared... and jumped her ship away from the rest of the humans.

[gelus4ever]

@1nonlyqaise1  no... or is it yes??

-♥eLvina

[gelus4ever]

@gelus4ever nevr mind

-♥eLvina

[garrehsponges]

@MayaTheSparklyDino Watch the series and you'll know what's going on there. Too much to explain in a comment -- it really was an shivers down your spine moment ;-)

[Paldyny]

@MayaTheSparklyDino What exactly should happening ? There's nothing from Death note

[TX51]

@MayaTheSparklyDino oh man dude that's a long story lol

[Ralcor]

@MayaTheSparklyDino 1:16 is when the "six" who is leading the cylon rebellion is killed aboard the Galactica when Athena kills her because she fears the six is going to steal her child.

[xXQueenBooXx]

@somberlight

Wow...really? Weaboos? I hate it when people overuse that word. It's old now. -_-

Anyway, yeah there's a lot of people goin on about L, but why shouldn't they? They love the character, and they love that he's voiced by Alessandro Juliani, who has a beautiful voice.

[BloodWolfXVI]

@xXQueenBooXx Agreed but he could use a smidge bit of practice of his high notes

[mushroomartist]

@BloodWolfXVI

Well, he just had his leg amputated - he's no supposed to sound like a professionally trained vocalist, and besides, he's in agonising pain.

[BloodWolfXVI]

@mushroomartist True. I'm not afraid to admit when i'm wrong.

[ceheape]

@mushroomartist Even though he IS a professionally trained vocalist. xD

[mushroomartist]

@ceheape

Exactly. XD But hey, he's not supposed to be being himself, he's acting! XD

[ceheape]

@BloodWolfXVI YOU try singing that right after you have your leg amputated. It was intentional.

[LLawliet1011]

WAIT, THAT'S L'S VOICE!!! THIS GUY PLAYS L!!!

[shadowfox2321]

@LLawliet1011 yes

[Purplekitify]

@LLawliet1011 of course :D

[16handsoffunfunfun]

@LLawliet1011 Yes, he does =]

[GodessOfMoon]

I loved this episode.

But, who's this L dude people are talking about?

Doesn't seem to have anything to do with this show.

[unicron8]

@GodessOfMoon L is a character from the anime/manga series Death Note and the english voice actor is the same guy that played Gaeta in BSG.

[somberlight]

@GodessOfMoon, it doesn't. generally you should just ignore weaboos, they never have a point in their ramblings anyway.

[16handsoffunfunfun]

@GodessOfMoon

L is from the anime/manga Death Note. The man singing in this video, Alessandro Juliani, is the English voice actor of L. If you like anime, you should check it out ASAP! Death Note is the best anime/manga ever made!

[Creedom]

Amazing episode from a truly amazing series...

[bdtiger880]

WILL YOU SHUT UP ABOUT DEATH NOTE! THIS IS BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, AND GAETA IS REALLY NOT MUCH LIKE L!

And this is a very touching song. I cry every time I listen to it.

[Alienxdroid]

I just watched the YouTube version of deathnotes song. Poorly done. It looks like someone just took the sound of the Battlestar episode and took clips of deathnotes L and put it together. Not real.

[Kagaminshi]

@Alienxdroid ...That's because that's what they did?

Duh -_-

[Alienxdroid]

I guess the actor. Plays L's voice in the English dubb of deathnote. I disagree with dubs anyways. English speakers are to lazy to take the time to read nowadays.

[mrslovvet]

@Alienxdroid That was highly uncalled for. Just because something is in Japanese does not make it superior. Some people just enjoy it in their native language. Please stop acting superior just because you watch dubs. They're not all bad.

[Kagaminshi]

@Alienxdroid That's not true at all! Maybe people like actually taking the time to watch the anime without having to read it subs. You miss out on some of the faces they pull and such.

[Alienxdroid]

Oh and 4) she doesn't scream "No!", she screams "jump!" as in FTL Jump as in (Faster Than Light) aka lightspeed.

[Alienxdroid]

Wow. Just wow. Alot of you Guys are retarded. 1)This is not stargate its Battlestar Galactica season 4 episode 7. 2) He doesn't die yet, he looses his leg and sings to get thru the pain. 3) He and this show have no relation to deathnote except the song maybe. I don't know. I didn't watch the dubbed version. They are 2 different shows.

[TheIcelandicPatriot]

Lauftinant Gaeta was conidered a traitor but to me he's a hero that fell.

[ApocolypticSauce]

Stop comparing him to L! O: L's epic but has NOTHING to do with Stargate TwT"

[kimikuro89]

@ApocolypticSauce he kinda does since the one singing this is the voice of L i know they are 2 totally diff ppl but he is the american voice of L so they kinda do have to do wit each other but just wit the ppl since deathnote had nothing to do wit stargate or w/e

[OlenAinaSinun]

Jeez, seeing him in such pain makes me wanna throw up.

Poor guy. ;/

[brooklyn101ification]

look L is great I love L but this is Felix a completely differant character and this is a great series to watch

[Cavatica]

Kids, he doesn't die in this episode, or even in the episodes immediately following. He makes it almost -- almost -- to the end of the series. Watch the show!

[PikachuMaiden]

*shivers*, WHY, why did L have to die?! And now him?! Wow, just wow, T.T. Btw, why she scream "No!", and suddenly, the ship disappears?

[Manta665]

@PikachuMaiden she doesn't scream "no!", she screams "jump", because she kinda controls the ship - so it jumps to another place.

[69Mikage]

@PikachuMaiden i thought she screamed 'Jump".....-shrugs- i dunno

[kiraheart4000]

is this a movie?if so then wat is it???

[entropyapathy]

@kiraheart4000

Battlestar Galactica tv series, a reboot of the original 70's tv show.

[blacklotus1991]

I almost cried to that song

[sherbertpi9]

Poor Felix, so sad. Beautiful song though

[Sephylover14]

What's up with the chick? O.o

Sorry, never watched the show. My friend showed me the song and I became addicted to listening to it x3

[lawlietzlilgurl101]

Wait....He DIES after this?!?!?!well that just ruined my mood...I've never seen Battlestar Galatica mainly cuz i just never thought of watching it...but now i might.....but seriously...He dies after this??

[yakukubu]

@lawlietzlilgurl101 no, he doesn't dies

[Parrotguy1999]

@lawlietzlilgurl101 Gaeta eventually led a mutiny against Adama along with Tom Zarek, because they distrusted the Cylons that Adama had allied with. The mutiny failed, and Adama had Gaeta shot.

[110gothicvampire]

What episode was this one?

[TuRnINgThEcOrNeR94]

...To sing like that, as you're dying..TALENT!

[PikachuMaiden]

@TuRnINgThEcOrNeR94 Exactly!

[250hero]

@TuRnINgThEcOrNeR94 no offense, he had an amputation. He didn't die there. He dies by being shot as a mutineer.

[bookwormforever1991]

My dad used to watch the show until he stopped i never watched it what episode number was this?

[dnfan2016]

how and why did his leg get amupitated

[VoodooGypsy]

@dnfan2016 He got shot in the leg. Not sure how far you are so I'll just leave it at that.

[dnfan2016]

@VoodooGypsy okay and thanks for letting me know i hope i can finish up with the season i am on very soon

[xMidnightChan]

I only like this cause it's L's voice.[':

[MrEvilgecko]

AWSOME! LOL I CRIED! >.<

[kotomimaya]

why does he always gets a character that dies TT.TT

[bookwormforever1991]

@kotomimaya Its the same with some other actors. Take Alexis Cruz for example he was Joey Garza in Streets of Laredo, he died, then in another series he played Skaara of Abydos, in the end Skaara dies. Those aren't the only characters he has played but they are some shows that i have watched.

[BleedingMyMusic]

Who the HELL dislikes this?

[Fever655]

Just clearing things up here:

This episode, in which Gaeta sings this song after losing his leg, was aired on May 16 2008

The episode in which L dies and sings this song was aired on April 3 2007

They are both monumental parts of excellent shows. Let's leave it at that.

[Fever655]

To add, the voice actor for L is Alessandro Juliani.

The actor who plays Gaeta, the man in this video, is also Alessandro Juliani.

It is him singing this song for both cases. Same actor, same voice, same song, different show.

[ChazikProductions]

so this guy voices L from death note, but the song is nothing to do with theDN series or L

XD well stone me :P

still a brilliant song and luckily this guy doesnt try to do a different voice between characters YAY

[EmoRayx3]

People say I'm emo and accuse me even more of it because I sing this 24/7!! -_- I modified it to: How long HE sleeps with no shirt of man, with my 3 wishes clutched in HIS hand, the first that he be spared the pain that comesfrom a dark and laughing rain... When HE finds love may it always stay true, for this is the second wish i made too...But wish no more my life you can take, to have HIM please just one day wake, to have HIM pleeease, to have HIM please just one day wake.....

[lukepham101]

Shut up about L! Don't get me wrong he's a great character, but this is Battlestar Galactica which is as quality a show as Death Note...

[TheRealJDetective]

What episode is this?

[TylerMcManus1]

@TheRealJDetective "Guess What's Coming to Dinner?" 04x06

[0732jamie]

So talented! I really liked Gaeta and loved when they started giving him good, complex material, even if I didn't agree with his choices. Anything to see more of Alessandro.

[kisslordorochimaru]

alessandro is a awesome actor. he's really nice , i watched a fan video with him in it. he stops and talks to 3 fan girls for awhile, they were so lucky because he wanted to meet them again the next day to talk more.i love him as L.

[RawrImaNinja09]

IT'S L!

[IHeartMyKittyKan]

no matter how serious the vid is, if it has alessandro in it, you are guaranteed to get thousand of comments somewhat pertaining to L.

although i will just use the rest of the space here to commend him on his talent with singing. as for acting i have no idea because i've never watched this show.

[8BitSodaPop]

omg his leg is gone D:

i watched this like 20 times and never noticed..

rest in peace L >.<

[wertyhDA]

XD, now most people only know this because of death note.

[ThePuffinsrock]

@wertyhDA Pretty much

[calicopawprints]

Is this L's voice actor or something? :o

[monstercookieface]

that was buestiful

why didnt L ever sing for us he clear;y sang for them cause he was good with the opera but still no L? no singing for death note?

[specialwh0]

-sniffles-

i think of L while watching dis and it makes meh sadd..

poor Lawli

[iamasoulreaper]

@specialwh0 me too

[aviona123]

aww...

[sajberkurajber0167]

Perfect.......................­JUMP!!!...........

[yalinegurl1]

I wish people would stop talking about L here. I like L and whatnot, but this has nothing to do with him really, completely different show and character, L's been dead for years and years now. Get over it.

[CrownedWithLaurels]

@yalinegurl1 I understand, I'm a BSG fan myself, but I think it's the idea of L singing that people love. And the fact that the song sort of fits his character.

[kasumi421]

@yalinegurl1 I understand where you're coming from, but I doubt anyone will get over L's death.

This song is beautifully depressing. I feel bad for him.

[yalinegurl1]

@kasumi421

true enough. XD it's been years and still, whenever I have to look serious, I think of that moment.

[gelus4ever]

@yalinegurl1 i agree wit u completly cause the real issue hear is not L per se , but GELUS the real hero of death note!!!11 happy holloween evrybody!!1 an im dressen up as GELUS 4 holloween......what r u guys gonna b10???//

-eLvina♥

[ThePuffinsrock]

@yalinegurl1 L was a great anime character. If you like L then why are complaining that other L fans are expressing their love for a great character.

[yalinegurl1]

@ThePuffinsrock

L was great, I cried when he died and I had a great deal of respect for him, but seriously, this video has nothing to do about L.

[AllMightyTallestEmma]

@yalinegurl1 NO! He is the voice of L, but L is not dead, he just pretended to die so he can dress up as Ryuk and kill Light XD lololol

[ChazikProductions]

@AllMightyTallestEmma true dat :D YAY for L!!!!!

[MysteriousBrownEyes1]

@AllMightyTallestEmma No, stupid. He let BB out of prison and made him dress up as himself for the Kira case, since BB's so good at being a copycat. PFFFFF DUH.

[AllMightyTallestEmma]

@MysteriousBrownEyes1 Ah. I see. Thank you for the update. I shall now go and find L now.

[Vetgirl8295]

@AllMightyTallestEmma Best "L's not really dead" theory I've heard so far.

[XxtokitalolitaxX]

@AllMightyTallestEmma thats in the movie but in the show/manga he did die

[AllMightyTallestEmma]

@XxtokitalolitaxX NO! I KNOW I WATCHED THEM BOTH BUT THAT'S MY THEORY! Just let this L fangirl BELIVE!

[XxtokitalolitaxX]

@AllMightyTallestEmma :3 well...okay

[shadowfox2321]

@AllMightyTallestEmma WAIT REALLY!!! i hope thats the case!

[NashobaTyliDawn666]

@AllMightyTallestEmma that is totally right

[xicydx]

@AllMightyTallestEmma lol

[RioAbc123]

@yalinegurl1 so what it's still the guy who played lLLLLLLLLLLLLl he also pays jin in the new tekken movie.

[Kagaminshi]

@yalinegurl1 B-but... he's awesome.

[NostalgicMirror]

@yalinegurl1 Lol must you be so harsh? /: D

[holodock]

Frakkin' Anders should have shot himself in the leg.

[sy62697]

this is so sad :'(

[squirtablexfruits]

...this made me cry when i first saw it...

Poor gaeta!!!!

[707rachel]

wat show is this?

[squirtablexfruits]

@707rachel no you just didnt :O

BATTLESTAR GLACTICA!!!

[JuvA31]

i love his voice, i think it's the best "all along the watch tower" i've ever herad... i wish i could listen the full song ^.^

[upthebikez]

@JuvA31

While his voice is amazing,that's not him singing that, it's Bear McCreary's (composer of all BSG music) brother. I encourage you to buy all the soundtracks, they're amazing.

[JuvA31]

@upthebikez It's him, i've read some interviews (google it, you'll find it easily) it's not Bear..!

[upthebikez]

@upthebikez

You misunderstand clearly-All Along the Watch Tower is sung by a guy who goes by Bt4, and has a studio band. THIS song is sung by the actor Alessandro Juliani and it's not All Along the Watch Tower, so maybe that's where you are confused.

[JuvA31]

@upthebikez Oh sorry! yep i was confused with the title of THIS song ^^ Thanks a lot !

[kpskfi]

God, I miss BSG!

[upthebikez]

@kpskfi

So say we all

[Madhatter56100]

Wow...I can't believe thats L lol.

[Muckilove]

Awesome actor

[lolzatyahoo2]

4 people missed the like button

[HusslerkiD]

so say we all

[sophiesnake]

whats the name of this song?

[raymundo574]

@sophiesnake Read the title -_-

[sophiesnake]

@raymundo574 Yh, I realised that once I posted the comment :P

[F4Wildcat]

I just saw this episode today.

I dunno, losing your leg and discovering that you have such a beautifull voice

[jallison71]

@F4Wildcat He always knew he could sing he just didn't sing in front of anyone until now so they're the ones who are finding out.

[avatarkatara101]

L WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME !!!!

[gelus4ever]

@avatarkatara101 GELUS why did u leave me????/

-eLvina♥

[postnihilist]

Great song, great video! But is it possible to NOT embed the explanation of "what it means" and "what it does" in the video itself? PLEASE? It looks good here: with spacing and new lines, etc, but when "shared" on Facebook, for instance, it all turns into one-long-line-unformated-text. Which (no offense!) looks awful and is not reader-friendly enough to be useful. Thank you for the video.

[PerhapsItsTime2Die]

is this from Battlestar Galactica

[L33Tspartan]

@PerhapsItsTime2Die nope

[kandykaleena]

@L33Tspartan

Um, yes it is. o.0

[L33Tspartan]

@kandykaleena sarcasm

[virtualMODE]

This Juliani performance always makes me cry. Gaeta's not a hero of mine but his story touches me deeply.

[number4privetdrive]

You die again?! first L now this guy!

[skullcandy906]

@number4privetdrive ikr its a shame 

[AkimotoMiharu]

@number4privetdrive DONT...god dammit, I HATE this. Don't spoil stuff for other people!

It ALWAYS happens..I should..I just should avoid youtube..always the same damn story..

[Sarahfighter]

@AkimotoMiharu Sorry, but no one is going to wait until the whole world watches the whole Death Note series.

[superknightHCHS]

Death Note is good. But BSG is 10000000 times better than Death Note. Gaetas death was way more sad than L's

[WhiteBuddha]

Light was probably the cause of his amputated leg. Damn Light.

Just kidding BSG fans.

[AllMightyTallestEmma]

OMG!! IT'S L!!!!

[123happieness]

i only heard of this song because of deathnote and i love it so much its like a story of his life in under 2 minutes

[mannyane]

juliani's voice is so beautiful

I nlove him

[spencerpace15]

he's L's voice over rite?

[96mangachick]

I think it would have been pretty cool if he, as L in Death Note, sang a song. It would have been so out of character and unlike him, so that would made it even more sad when he died. ( does that make any sense?)
