i have always been a huge fan of the big o ost and was re watching it again only to realize i had never noticed this song with vocals, then i realized the song is actually rare and hard to find thx a bunch for putting this up
The City of Ember. a city who has been lost in darkness for hundreds of years, Beyond the city limits is an endless blanket of darkness. Powered by hydroelectricity from the river which enters through Ember and returns into the eternal darkness from which it came. The city is old, and power outages are often nowadays. Food shortages, scarce resources and limited light are the only remains of a city fading like a burnt ember. Will the city lose it's power and plunge into endless night forever?
The first part is the song of the City. Deep and strong with longs verses of the streets of light and the walls of stone. About citizens of sturdy hearts and about stored abundance never ending.
The second is the song of the River. Slow and rolling with power, coming in above, a complicated melody that seems to fight the current. Its rolling relentless rythem seems to urge one onward saying 'go down, go away, go now'
the last song is the song of Darkness. The one most filled with longing and majesty. the soul of Ember was in this song, Its tremendous chords held all the sorrow and all the strength of the people of the city. The song reached it's climax..
"Darkness like an Endless Night.." sang hundreds of voices. so powerfully that air seemed to shiver. And at that moment, the lights went out. The voices faultered, but only for an instant. Then they rose again in the darkness, stronger even than before. The last notes echoed and faded into a terrible silence.
"Will it end like this? At the finish of the last song?"
I lied about how much free time I have. :< But, I was able to run through the song a few (several) times and came up with possible lyrics:
O stella, oremus, et luces, et gnoscis, ignoscis; sola dico, negotiaberis nobiscum; sola dico, negotiaberis nobiscum.
Oh star, we pray, and you shine, and you know, and you forgive; you are called to earth, you will negotiate with us; you are called to earth, you will negotiate with us.
@StevenMDiLauro Is there any way that I can have that information for that link....this is my favorite song from the Big O soundtrack. All I have heard are instrumentals for this soundtrack...are there anymore vocals for the other songs?
Excellent.

This had been driving me nuts for years, but I gave up hope of ever finding a complete track. On a whim I decided to look it up again...
Thank you, sir. I feel whole again.

The song of the City of Ember has three parts.
The first part is the song of the City. Deep and strong with longs verses of the streets of light and the walls of stone. About citizens of sturdy hearts and about stored abundance never ending.
The second is the song of the River. Slow and rolling with power, coming in above, a complicated melody that seems to fight the current. Its rolling relentless rythem seems to urge one onward saying 'go down, go away, go now'

This song always reminds me of the City of Ember. The group of Believers would gather in chorus to sing the Song of Ember.
