[arielle0423]

beautiful, just beautiful. I <3 REPO so so very much, thanks for the lyrics!!!

[nawdizzle]

Her voice gives me goosebumps and despite the semi grim factor of the lyrics, this will be a lullaby for my kids.

[VjTori]

@fmc749 Try this pronunciation: Tanto tempo fa un uchello fatale di nome chromaggya Incrojo in vala la frecha Di un acheyre lungo le costae di lava Per ani pansado di essene Insiuguata scapo dalla frecha Chromaggya chromaggya perganon afronti per irr colo La frecha era legata Alala elay volava per liberisana Tirando la frecca altre son ferreti Per mua colpa mia collpa Guo varso la boca del dialavalo La sua freca i mi occi Chromaggya, come take these eyes. I would rather be blind.

[fmc749]

If I could say the lyrics right and practice I could sing this

[XxSugarQueen13xX]

I would love to have Sarah Brightman's voice...but if I did, I have friends who would probably use me... XD

[yaoihousegirl]

I can sing this song perfectly and I'm in orchestra. Take that choir

[N3RDYG0GGLES]

And my singing teacher asks me to sing this O_O' I've got a lot of practicing to do...

[gummybearlalala]

@themocookie Google Translate FTW

[DCMACollectives]

I love how this video has 0 dislikes. It should be kept this way. But then again...who would hate Repo! The Genetic Opera == Sarah Brightman's voice at that? <3

[Staticmenatwork]

[DarknessXLight1512]

Sarah Brightman is phenomenal as Blind Mag <3

[TheMOcookie]

Long ago, a fatal bird name, Chromaggia, crossed in the flight of an arrow, archer, along the coasts of lava, for years, thinking, Chased, Escape the arrow, Chromaggia, Chromaggia, why not address the danger ? The arrow was tied to the wing, And you get rid of Volvo, pulling the arrow, others are wounded by my fault, my fault, Down! Towards the mouth of the devil! His arrow, my eyes.

<3

[AnimeFanatic1012]

[ColorguardH]

[modelgirl2793]

[BrookiexBear]

I wish I had a voice like hers. It's so beautiful. I cry everytime I watch this scene.

[Beckster996]

[petertaylor13]

@Beckster996 yep :)

[16SandyD]

@Beckster996 yeah and after that rotti drops her into a sharp fence

[japanaime2oo9]

[TwilightDweler]

can u put up the translation in english please?

[Shaestel]

She's smooth.

This song is the ultimate middle finger to the Largo family...

[is half Italian, so... ;D]

... even though, it's the one song I struggle to listen to from REPO!

[awomerock]

@Shaestel Yeah totally like F U LARGOS lmao

[Ryannlovesapples]

What does this mean

[Momo24609]

@Ryannlovesapples Long ago, a fatal bird's name, Chromaggia, folded in the flight of an arrow, archer, along the coasts of lava, for years, thinking, Chased, Escape the arrow Chromaggia, Chromaggia, why not address the danger ? The arrow was tied to the wing, and Volvo to get rid of her, pulling the arrow, others are wounded by my fault, my fault, down! Towards the mouth of the devil! His arrow, my eyes.

[English]

[TomKaulitzLuvr]

It is in Italian. The Largo family are Italian so they understood every word she was saying. Thats why Rotti looked so angry when listening to it, the English lyrics match the sitiuation perfectly and the song was directed to him. I think they had only one line in English to make the ending more dramatic.

[SnowWhiteQueen29]

Why is there a Vocaloid video in the related videos? ._.

[SpiritRocks4]

@SnowWhiteQueen29 IDK O_0

[SnowWhiteQueen29]

@SpiritRocks4 It's not there anymore. At least I don't think?

[SpiritRocks4]

@SnowWhiteQueen29 Nope

[mfilanc]

does anyone know where to find the original repo songs, some of the songs in the movie have longer versions that are from Terrance's original stage show...is there an album out or anything?

[The54catwoman]

@nightflamer227 search for english lyrics because i can't remember them all but it's about a bird and at the end it's saying sorry for something. that part is in english because in the movie not everyone knows latin so she said in english th roti take these eyes i don't want to pay for them and i would rather be blind than pay you or end up dieing. meow! ^_^

[nightflamer227]

What is she sayin and why is only one part English!

[The54catwoman]

@jezabelcorpse i have now heard that this song is inb french, italian and latin. i personally think its latin. just wanted to let you know. meow! ^_^

[4evafreedom]

sara brightman-sigh- would anyone else KILL for a voice as beautiful as hers?

[HelpCatIsMee]

@4evafreedom i would :/

[GagasMonster232]

i love the story :) its sad but beautiful

[xenaquest55]

Sarah Brightmen is so pretty and her voice is so beautiful

[xenaquest55]

Sarah Brightmen is so pretty and her voice is so beautiful

[Funkyfunkers35]

Omg I can recognize italian now! WOO!

[caitibug95]

I am thinking of doing this piece for my school's Solo Ensemble contest... It will take alot of work.

[alexrawar12]

This song is amazing!!!

[tokyopanda13]

i canNOT sing that high! lol

[Funkyfunkers35]

@tokyopanda13 Holy moly you're right! I mean really,my head is friggin spinning! I'm trying to learn Chromaggia.

I'm probably gonna fail. Miserably.

[sugercube99]

@tokyopanda13

well you probably cant sing with your head.

[castlekiller157]

Tanto tempo fa

un uccella fatale di nome, Chromaggia

Incrocio in volo la freccia di un,

Arciere, lungo le coste di lava,

Per anni, pensando di essere,

Inseguita, Scappo dalla freccia,

Chromaggia, Chromaggia.

This is a really moving song... it made me cry.

[sugercube99]

its sad she dies did someone cut the ropes or did they break?

[inuinulovelove]

@sugercube99 (SPOILER)

They were cut.

[sugercube99]

@inuinulovelove

thank you.

[RosalieHale2109]

@sugercube99 Rotti cut them.

[sugercube99]

@RosalieHale2109

thank you.

[RosalieHale2109]

@sugercube99 Of course!

[sugercube99]

@RosalieHale2109

thank you.

[Blckoctobervoclz]

@sugercube99 (spoiler) Rotti Largo pulled a lever down, causing the ropes to loosen.

[Unicornzilla]

@sugercube99 the guy cut the ropes. i was nvr rlly sure why...

[BreakneckHeartache]

@Unicornzilla He killed her because she was trying to rebel against him and free herself, hence "come take these eyes I would rather be blind" at the end, then she cuts her eyes out. The contract was she was his property with those eyes, hence the ending verse. Once she was free, he killed her, so she would never reveal the secrets she learned under his control :)

[Unicornzilla]

@BreakneckHeartache thankyou so much! i eventually realised why he did tht after watching it over and over, im kinda slow hehe.. but how sad.

thanks ^^

[kasai0494]

@BreakneckHeartache An interesting fact. Mag's eyes were Marni's. :P

[Funkyfunkers35]

@kasai0494 Nuh-uh! Seriously? Freaky!

[kasai0494]

@Funkyfunkers35 Indeed. Also, Shilo's cure is in her mothers dead body in the form of zydrate.

[Funkyfunkers35]

@kasai0494 Wow,I never thought of that...Zydrate? Wonder why that would cure her...cool! I hope like heck they make a sequel!

[kasai0494]

@Funkyfunkers35 Rotti puts the cure that Nathan created into Marni's eyeless body (which Nathan has been keeping behind a picture frame like window since she died, after Rotti get's Shilo for the opera and Nathan is saying he's been betrayed you can see Marni is missing from where she used to be). Rotti hires the Graverobber to drop hints to Shilo and have her extract zydrate (which is is mixed with her cure) from her mothers body. Watch A Needle Into a Bug.

[Problemsxx]

@kasai0494 that would makes sense that Marni's portrait wasn't there anymore. Thanks!

[kasai0494]

@Problemsxx No problem :3

[yawnz67]

@Funkyfunkers35

They won't. Terrance said he's working on something(his Molting Comic-CHECK. IT. OUT. ) and the opera took him and Darren at least ten years and he'll be working on his comic for at least five. He did say though that if a die-hard fan made a graphic novel or comic that he would input some of his ideas, but any hint of making a soundtrack or movie like sequel envdevor is highly unlikely.

[LoveTacos13]

@yawnz67 They are acually making a prequel right now it might take awhil though cause they are low on budget still

[yawnz67]

@LoveTacos13

Wow that must have been really recent, last time at REpROduction at his Q&A he said nothing was going on...thanks for letting me know.

[AtemsLoverGirl]

@kasai0494 thats impossible

[kasai0494]

@AtemsLoverGirl Nope. Marni gave her eyes to her best friend (assumingly sometime after she died). Roti took them and made them poperty of GeneCo so he could hold Mag in a contract. When Nate is singing Legal Assassin the 'photo' at the end of the hall is actually a shadow box beneath Marni's grave and she's been preserved and propped up. She has a veil on that covers her eyes tho. Watch Into a Bug a Needle. The girl Shilo gets Zydrate from is her mother (who has no eyes) :P

[AtemsLoverGirl]

@kasai0494 i saw the video for needle through a bug.....i cried

[kasai0494]

@AtemsLoverGirl awh :C

[AtemsLoverGirl]

@kasai0494 it made me sad that she just about did that to her own mother

[kasai0494]

@AtemsLoverGirl She didnt know that it was her mothers corpse untill the zydrate lit up her face.

[HoldYourOwnBand]

@kasai0494 mag had GeneCo eyes, explaining why she could do cool stuff like holographic images, not marni's.... marni was alive and got mag involved with rotti for free sight in exchange for singing... the reason the "corpse marni" had no eyes is... well, to put it to simply, she WAS a corpse, and eyes are simply part of the body that goes first. However i very much so like your interpretation :)

[deepdaydreamer]

@HoldYourOwnBand except that in a commentary they do say that they are marni's eyes. Who says Geneco couldn't alter the eyes before they gave them to Mag?

[kasai0494]

Also. In the beginging of 'at the opera tonight' where Nate is singing about being betrayed, if you look at the shadow box that held Marni's body at the end of the hall it's been broken open and Marni is gone. Roti put Shilo's cure in Marni's body where zydrate would be extracted and payed Graverobber to give her hints to get her cure from her mother's body. Before 'Let the Monster Rise' starts, Shilo uses her mom's body to lure out the repo man. Marni is in the wheel chair :P

[Funkyfunkers35]

@sugercube99 THey cut the ropes.

[sugercube99]

omg im thinking WTF?!?! with the Spanish!?! then i see the word volo and i say Ohi Italian.

[Blckoctobervoclz]

@sugercube99 try ITALIAN

[LunatheMoonDragon]

So beautiful. You can hear exactly what she's saying, even though it's not in English. It goes right through your heart...

[chris1234506]

What is the meaning of 'Chromaggia'

[whosawsome]

@chris1234506 chromaggia is a bird and the song is about chromaggia being trapped in a cage and just wanting to fly and be free, like blind mag

[CelticTears101]

@chris1234506 Chromaggia is a bird and in the song the bird has an arrow tied to her wing, but she thinks it's folowing her. So she is flying all over the place trying to get rid of it, but in doing so, she is killing and hurting innocent people. So she is the arrow's eyes taking it where it needs to go to kill people.

[UtaniKimi]

i would rather be blind!...(and then she gouges her eyes out :D

[boiko117]

italiano dhaaaa..!!

[MaidenOfTheNight]

What language is this?

[jezabelcorpse]

italian

[MaidenOfTheNight]

Sweet, thanx alot.

[animeartist1993]

@jezabelcorpse

.

actually its Latin, like most actual operas were written in.

[jebshere]

@MaidenOfTheNight well mia culpa is latin for "my mistake", along with chromaggia meaning something along the lines of some kind of bird i think my latin sucks but i think it is latin which would make since as the song is representing traditional opera which was latin

[jebshere]

it depends most people will just google search it which will say its Italian thats not completely true there are parts of the song such as "TIRANDO LA FRECCIA,

ALTRI SON FERRITI PER MIA COLPA, MIA COLPA" and mia colpa means "my mistake" in latin there are other latin words but i used that as an example im a huge fan of the G.O.

[paynterfreak]

@DethFan1 Its actually Italian.

[metalcorevegetarians]

beautiful.

[TwilightTiger3]

mags voice is beautiful!

[ravenira]

@TwilightTiger3 Sarah Brightman's voice is always nothing less than enchantingly brilliantly beautiful

[stepho712]

i luv dis song, but more importantly i luv dis movie ^_^ well done =]

[redsunsbaberx7]

Just punctuation and such. A beautiful song. Well made video!

[redsunsbaberx7]

Tanto tempo fa, Un uccello fatale di nome, Chromaggia, Incrociò in volo la freccia di un, Arciere, Lungo le coste di lava, Per anni, pensando di essere, Inseguita, Scappò dalla freccia, Chromaggia, Chromaggia, Perché non affronti il pericolo? La freccia era legata all'ala, E lei volva per liberarsene, Tirando la freccia, Altri son ferriti per mia colpa, Mia colpa, Giú! Verso la bocca del diavolo! La sua freccia, I miei occhi.

[kaymicxx]

Very well made ^^
