Bartholomew lyrics (Dark Souls trailer song)

[epicurbanbirds]

ghaha, it's Fell from a cliff, never broke a bone, and some other bullshit you say

[Bigdizzle13270]

This dude fucked up on a lot of lyrics

[19reaperassassn85]

It's sad this song is so bad ass and is part of the reason I rented the game but after playing I was severely disappointed.

[DarkheroTobi]

dark souls is a good you probably don't like it cause of its insane difficulty i like better than skyrim but we both have our opinions of dark souls

[gamemaster543]

all xbox players die if they buy dark souls XD

[Sarthais]

@gamemaster543

Everyone who buys Dark Souls dies.....

[TheCraziestMonkey]

Imminent amazing song.

[lotsofawsome]

9 people were washing in the river but then took an arrow of the knee

[missymelmel2112]

@lotsofawsome -_-

[BlackEyedJester]

Replay button, Prepare to be Raped.

[lostagent23]

Fuck all you morons and your stupid FUCKING thumbs up!!!

[omgcopyritedstuff]

@lostagent23 hahahhahhah yeah

[chrico12]

this is the description of dark souls

[jakejamesgx3]

fell from a cliff never broke a bone, someone had fall control am i right

[niccilomachiaveli]

it's

"starin back again"

not "there and back again"

nice job though.

[RocketTheUmbreon]

came here cause i heard the song on the trailer on my tv and i like the song

[JakeAndHisMusic]

This song has a very led zeppelin feel to it, rock on people!

[LPUnderfaint]

CEASELESS DISCHARGE! :D

[genjon1]

I LOVE YOU

[AceS4289]

You should post the correct lyrics in the description, then put a big annotation on the video saying to read description for lyrics lol.

[Mrjd9876]

at 0:05 its 'trying to get clean' who would say clear?

[clairelove3]

@Mrjd9876 i was thinking that too. also i'm pretty sure it's either And i saw myself staring back again or And i saw my soul staring back again. i'm not sure. i saw myself there and back again doesn't make alot of sense.

[Mrjd9876]

its actually 'And i saw myself staring back again Then i saw myself staring back again"

[revengeboy]

*"Saw myself starin back again"*

[FlyingFocs]

A word to the wise:

If you are a gamer who plays games to kick back and relieve stress after a long hard day, DO NOT BUY DARK SOULS. IF anything, it will just serve to piss you off even more. I learned that the hard way.

Not saying that the game is bad, it's great if you like that type of thing. BUt for me, well... I want my $60 back.

[RuleSeventySix]

@FlyingFocs The catchphrase for the game is Prepare to Die. Did you really expect a leisurely walk in the park?

[FlyingFocs]

@RuleSeventySix No, I wasn't. But Holy Crap, not that bad. I'm one of those who plays games for the experience. It's hard for me to enjoy the experience when I keep dying and fighting the same eneimes and seeing the same backgrounds over and over and over again.

[RuleSeventySix]

@FlyingFocs No idea if you've played Demon's Souls or not. Since I have, I know what to expect from FromSoft. It's not incredibly hard; It has a learning curve. You can't just charge into a battle or you'll be promptly killed. You also can't play this game frustrated. Take a breather if you're pissed off at it.

In all the times i've died I can say around 95% I looked and said "yeah, I goofed. completely on me". The other 5% are glitches/pvp/invulnerability. Patience & patterns, all it is.

[FlyingFocs]

@RuleSeventySix Yeah. Sadly, I haven't the patience required. That or, I'm just not into this kind of game.

And I have no PS3, so no, I haven't played Demon's Souls, though I have heard it's easier.

[Ferusraven]

Is it staring back again? or there and back again?|

0:54

[narutomodernwarfare]

if the graphics were better i would LOVE this game

[nick122990]

Thumbs up if you agree this song fits the game PERFECT!

[fbibarbie]

@nick122990 did they base the song of the game or the game of this song? X.x

[nick122990]

@fbibarbie To my understanding the song was written specifically for the game, but that's if i remember correctly don't hold my words to be the truth till you find out yourself.

[MegaLordBane]

@nick122990 no it wasnt for the game, the song had been out before the game

[RahNinjaBlade51]

Be Wary of Awesome Music

[o0cacoto0o]

I'm sure many others have said this but,

Praise the sun.

[alphasonic255]

@o0cacoto0o never knew what praise the sun really ment

[o0cacoto0o]

@alphasonic255 praise the sun could mean the covenant that you can join. you should check the dark souls wiki, for more information about the covenants, dont want to spoil anything else.

[alphasonic255]

@o0cacoto0o thanks



[fjksalf]

cool song,but why is it called bartholomew?

[solittleusernames]

@fjksalf because let's admit...Bartholomew is an awesome name.

[noduhelmo]

"Now, I didn't contact me and he doesn't know I exist..." - From the video description.

Now, I hate to be the guy to point this out to you, but I'm guessing that the "I" is meant to be "he"? :P

Thumps up if you want Darkunov to see this.

[toBnamedlater]

@noduhelmo your a douche. just drop it.

[Darkunov]

@noduhelmo no need to, I get an email for each comment one of my vids receive :P. Thanks, I'll make the change right away.

[jonsandersgame]

Prepare to die

[silenciosniperion]

Epic song.

[MrJoemullins]

harlequin means devil in spanish 

[Inheritance41Park]

@MrJoemullins thats diablo

[spyfake134]

@MrJoemullins Harlequin is an actor in a comedy witha shaved head, mask face, and colored tights.

[NutterButter227]

@bearhead33 No that's just because your playing it on a PS3

[halomasterr117]

@NutterButter227 Really? Console war jokes?

Funny.

[tuseroni]

this song goes so well to dark souls though, you start knee deep and you are well up to your neck by the end and screaming for help. ive never played such an oppressive game before, least not since Adventures of Link(and even that wasnt as bad) every word in this song just oozes dark souls. "you're gonna make it boy but by the skin of your teeth"

[bearhead33]

the games really hard

the bosses are made to make u wanna throw ur ps3 out the window

[tuseroni]

@bearhead33 thats nothing, bosses in the first part of the game become regular enemies...in mobs...in later parts. the first boss you fight, the taurus demon shows up later with like 8 others just like him (but much stronger and no place to jump off) same for the goat guy. at one point dark knights become regular enemies, there are ghosts you can't hit without a certain item. this game is made to bend you over and make you it's bitch. but once you fight through it, man is it rewarding.

[HERIO142]

Isn't there another song???

[BrianTheEpic]

@HERIO142 the fuck are you talking about?

[JMastr211]

Thumbs up if you came here because of dark souls. (Yeah, I know, that's pretty much all of you)

[Ceag840]

@JMastr211

Yeah, I didn't even know this song existed until the commecial...

[SuperMetalinferno]

why did you even attempt to make a video if you barely knew the lyrics

[emokitty5000]

by the way Wikki is user contributed for and if you get your lyrics from there it has the possibility of being wrong because someone who misheard them might be the poster of the lyrics there and wa-la you get an entire group of people who dont know the lyrics because one person misheard them and posted on Wikki.

[emokitty5000]

I actually have the album from The Silent Comedy (THE BAND WHO SINGS THIS) and it has the lyrics for their song in it. it is "oh my god, please help me knee deep in the river tryin' to get clean" and it is "and i saw my self starin' back again" just saying. To many people only know this song because of a game trailer. There are people who actually listen to The Silent Comedy however, myself as an example.

[emokitty5000]

These Lyrics are incorrect,but still nice attempt. and for one its "Oh my god please help me knee deep in the river triyin' to get clean" clean not clear. You got it right for the most part, but there is the seldom mistake.

[Try5Times]

it hasnt a refree

[hackback5]

i think its oh my god please help me knee deep in the river trying to get CLEAN

[businessjgcb]

i think you messed up the lyrics from 2:04-2:25

[riggsnicole1]

yes another correction is due there are several errors the correct lyrics are on wikki lyrics i would suggest a little research instead of just listening to the song repeatedly

[samalz27]

Why would you post a lyrics video when you don't know the fucking lyrics?

[Spar125]

at 0:06 it is Clean not clear

[fraserwiseman]

this is awesome, FACT

[ghostassassin23]

I can here the plea but this guy cant he doesn't hear the song right I saw another video and it's the same song with the right lyrics the (??) means what? So I might sound like a troll for truth but I'm not

[bowbafetable]

seraphim means angel pls thumbs this so he pops it in () sry if this has already been posted

[quanw11]

i mean song:)

[quanw11]

i love this sonic:)

[wolfbainn222]

6 people cant here the plea

[bowlburner1]

i think im going to listen to this song everyday till dark souls comes out..

[ChineseFood22]

AAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAA!!!!!!! this song is sooo F***ing AMAZING~! if you think about it he's decribing human nature and feelings down to the most simplist of forms~GOD IT'S SO F***ING AWSOME!!!

[MrRigrot]

Please help me, knee deep in the river tryin' to get clean

clean no clear

I rambled with the worst of them

rambled not rabbled

other than that awesome

[TheBibb82]

THIS IS THE SONG NOW I WANT TO USED AS MY WWE 2ND WRESTLING ENTRANCE IT WOULD BE GREAT I KNOW I WOULD HAVE TO PAY THESE GUYS A LOT

[EmoNinjaVampireWolf]

Wicked song!

[IloveBadRepp]

Amazing song

[fhfgdhdhxfnd]

Love this song 5 stars

[softly420]

if you want the RIGHT lyrics to this song....

check out RockPanther112's version... it's right.

[ThePhinalPhantasy]

Since half of the video is already covered with annotations...

0:50 sure that isn't, 'Saw myself starin' back again'?

Great song, and I'm glad you're correcting it.

[Darkunov]

@ThePhinalPhantasy When I first wrote the lyrics (pre-corrections) I was pretty sure I heard "I saw myself there and back again".

Then, I saw Tidus' lyrics, in which he says it's your version, and considered changing those lyrics as well.

But when I made the corrections, I obviously relistened to that part, and I still think it sounds more like my version than his.

[ThePhinalPhantasy]

@Darkunov Your video, your call. The song still sounds awesome to me either way.

[TheRedwolf11]

@Darkunov No Phinal is right...Listen with your ears not your toes.

[carldeanmasel]

@ThePhinalPhantasy he says and lol

[fhfgdhdhxfnd]

LOVE IT :)

[gijokef]

so can anyone else describe the background picture as anything else but a cluster-fuck of evil that probably send my ass to hell a thousand times over when i attempt to go fight it?

[LegoRandomness243]

@gijokef armor spider's evil incarnation .___. he's bigger...and apparently on fire now

[gijokef]

@LegoRandomness243 oh... well i'm glad they decided he needed more fire. not nearly enough in the first game... (starts to cry in the fetal position)

[Foxyjeranova]

Wats this song about?

[The3CRock]

@Foxyjeranova Make sure no one is around when you read this, anyone there good, the song is about! wait for it anything you want it to be about!! Dont tell anyone!

[chopper12333]

thank u

[starcraf2halo]

17552 why does it only show my views?

[ProjectxEroz]

GOD I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS SONG FOREVER. >.< I fucking.. Fucking.. Fucking.. Fucking. Love it. :D

[KidShazam227]

lub this



[clynnboss]

great song love the beat!

[antone87able]

im with ''OculusNon'' on this one,,,,,at first i was thinking of the lyrics as a figure of speech "fell in love wit the harle Quin",,,,as if to say "thats a bad/crazy bitch",,,,fell in love with a bad bitch,,,,but when u here the rest of the lyric i realize that maybe the message is that he has been there and done that,,,,iv fucked with all kinds,,,,

[OculusNon]

I believe the reference to the Harlequin was speaking of the masks actors would wear. The word hypocrite is what they used to call actors. When Christ would call the pharisees hypocrites he was saying that their righteousness was an act a false front, or in this reference a false face (the harlequin)

[MrJudgeBot]

Whats the song about?

[MrJudgeBot]

I liked the part where he said "La"

[cembanditx1]

Silent comedy

[damianonemillion]

fuck all you god damn idiots, i just want the name and artist of the song. GIVE IT TO ME OR I WILL EAT YOUR SOUL

[nicolys1]

it's harlequin not Harley Quinn she is a batman character harlequin is an actual word

[arabidgerbil]

lol tacos

[Darkunov]

@antone87able I do know her, she's called Harley Quinn, and if you turn off annotations to see the pre-correction lyrics, you'll see that that's what I had written in the first place :P

[TheMidgetJuggler]

@antone87able Harlequin, look it up

[MegaTrickynick]

@antone87able I doubt the song is referring to Harley Quinn from Batman. If you're referring to someone's comment, then my apologies lol

[clynnboss]

@antone87able batman? LMAO!!

[12345gavin12345]

@antone87able hes not a harleyquin is like a jester in medevil times, he kept his king from boredem by jokes,shows,plays, etc

[nodnarbdamnit]

@antone87able excellent batman knowledge but i think he just means an unfaithful bitch. we've all been there

[TheRedwolf11]

@antone87able They aren't referring to BATMAN!Harlequin is a actual word!But because that's what Harley Quinn is she got the name.

[pie2413]

@antone87able I don't think this whole song is about Harley Quinn just because the word she based her alias off of (Harlequin, another word for clown) showed up in one line of the song. Don't mean to beat you down about this, but there is absolutely no way a song with such meaning was meant for a comic book character.

Also: Arkham Asylum is the correct spelling. Don't give us a history lesson on a Batman character if you can't even spell that right ;D

[Night10194]

@pie2413 For God's sake...It's pretty obvious from the last line of the song, about eating the bread that once was stone and falling from the cliff without breaking a bone, and bowing down to get the kings overthrown, that this song is referring to the Temptation of Christ in the desert (at least with those lines) and positing that he failed rather than resisted, bowing down to the Devil, testing God, and violating his fast, and now there's hell to pay. Really, it's not even subtle.

[pie2413]

@Night10194 I know, and I'm agreeing with you! Don't act like I'm the idiot because I was correcting that guy! Look, he didn't even have the balls to leave his dumb-ass comment up cause he realized how stupid it was.

[tysepicz]

Hey nerds! I

[sephrinzen]

0:00 0:00 0:00 0:00 0:00 0:00 0:00 0:00 free repeats yayz

[Latooni11]

See, ppl. If you turn off the annotations and look at what he originally wrote, but view the video as a "misheard lyrics" video instead, it stops being offensively bad, and immediately becomes funny as hell. :D

[OutdoorsMan1775]

Its funny i knew this song before the game comercial. I bet over half of you are here because of the video game comercial.

[NextLOLz]

I just wana point out...YOUR LYRICS ARE SO WRONG. are u deaf?

[Darkunov]

@NextLOLz don't think I would have taken the time to listen/like this song and then time the lyrics if I was :P

[MyHomer4]

@Darkunov ive been lookin for this my whole life :O

[assdan27]

this is the worst lyric interpretation of any song I've ever heard lol. Travellin' live with a Harley Quinn. Fell in love with a harlequin, is right. the song is about a man repenting because he thinks his life is leading him to hell. not traveling on the road

[thelonewolfesoldier]

a harlequin was a doll in the form a jester or fool

[crazywhiteb0y56]

how do i get this to my ipod? :o

[Darkunov]

@crazywhiteb0y56 Don't know exactly, but you can probably buy it on itunes. Also, damn you for supporting Apple >:)

[Darkunov]

@wolfdogwolfwolf thanks, but unless you viewed this before today, they wre kinda right :P without the annotations I added yesterday night there were a lot of mistakes.

[Darkunov]

@wolfdogwolfwolf thanks, but unless you viewed this before today, they wre kinda right :P without the annotations I added yesterday night there were a lot of mistakes.

[Miinnniie]

@Darkunov Saw it before the corrections back when this had like 2k views.. no complaints..unless they show that they can do better. I think you did a great job with the video(:

[Iplaynakedable]

Its dread not dad

[Iplaynakedable]

This song is perfect for the trailer also

[wizardkevin101]

The Harlequin was less of a jester and more of a traveling acrobat. He wasn't just an acrobat though, he was an actor, mime, and jokester all combined into one. His performances would change to suit the situation, and if he were doing a simple action (such as walking) he would spice it up a bit by doing a flip, cartwheel, or some other acrobatical performance. As an actor he would be very dramatic, like more so than a teenage girl. Basically overall better than a jester: one epic mofo!

[ThePhinalPhantasy]

1:31 Sounds like 'I'm tryin' to get the kings overthrown' to me.

Or maybe 'I'm tryin' to get the kings off the throne'

Anyone else hear it?

[xXrobjobXx]

harlequin...like a jester in medevil times



[LiveGRANDforever]

i dont normally listent to this kind of music but as soon as i heard it from Dark Souls i like love this song now

[littlefreddy179]

@LiveGRANDforever yeah i was like what is this song called !!!! omg

[LiveGRANDforever]

@littlefreddy179 i know me to(: as soon as i heard it the first thing i did was go to youtube and search for it luckly i found it(:

[Locustoverlord]

when i hear this song i want dark souls more and more

[deathxSHAWDOWx]

har·le·quin/ˈhärlik(w)ən/

Adjective: In varied colors; variegated. 

[james123wwe]

HARLEQUIN IS A STREET PERFORMER IN THE MEDIEVAL PERIOD PLAY AC:BROTHERHOOD AND THERE IN THERE AND

---------*******CHECK ME OUT*******--------- PLZ I WOULD LIKE MORE VIEWS AND SUBS

[TheCarmillaShow]

not what I really listen to but this song is badass.

[CHEVY5648]

harlequin means clown or buffoon

[triotoonzzz]

i really hate to be a jackass, because this is a pretty good video, but some of the lyrics are wrong.

[kenzieg97]

I came here because of the Dark Souls trailer... IN LOVE WITH THE SONG, IN LOVE WITH THE GAME...

[thedaddysbean]

one of my 3 top fav song look em up mad world familar faces, this song, and late night alumni rainy days. k p's et is good to

[Sarthais]

"Oh my god

please help me"

That describes demon souls and dark souls really well

[Thesamjam5]

Guys vote wether this sould be a Song for dead island or MW3 say :MW3 for thier vote or dark souls

[trollin39]

@Thesamjam5 dark souls

[toBnamedlater]

and then it's "Saw the darkest parts of man" but thats my opinion

[toBnamedlater]

I think it's "You best believe or there's hell to pay."

[aescarion1]

whats a harlequin btw ;o? googled it and got some strange stuff

[Darkunov]

@aescarion1 If I recall correctly, it's kind of like a street performer from the time of Renaissance, that did the kind of things a king's jester would do. Except they do it for the passersby.

[crazyfighter13]

@Darkunov also they were creepy looking.

[xxXShadowflame666Xx]

@Darkunov No actually its a whore a Jester is what entertained the king

[Darkunov]

@xxXShadowflame666Xx I know that Jester were the kings' entertainers, hence "[...]a king's jester would do." Prostitutes in that time were called courtesans.

[shytbrickhouse15]

@Darkunov Ha I think that harlequins are tricksters. and since he is a man he would love a woman which makes here a whore. "Woman aint nothin but hoes and tricks."
