REJOICE IN THE GLORY OF COMBAT! theme starts playing
Rammstein 😀
Fun Idea: LaHee love by Soken himself from this year's Fanfest.
Serious recommendation: Wrath of the Harrier.
It's probably been requested already, but Hades theme from Shadowbringers is a really epic track, since it's start with the usual shadowbringers theme but then just drops into the Hades specific theme afterwards. Easily one of my favourite tracks in the game. I'd also recommend Dancing Mad, since it's the theme for everyones favourite jester 🙂
I am really enjoying your reactions to the OST of our beloved game, Jesse. I would suggest a song, myself, but I am sure someone has already beat me to it. lol
"Do you know…la hee?"
I suggest la hee particularly Sokken's live rendition ♥
What Angel Wakes Me is also a bop
Nobody has requested RUBY WEAPON'S THEME YET?!
FFXIV Metal – Brute Justice Theme is crazy good and fun!
the Dan Inoue story is A MA ZING, you will love this tip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOgu9798qAw from minute 22, Soken and Koji Fox explains the whole Dan Inoue Story.
"How is it every song is more epic than the last?"
Because… FFXIV…. every story is better than the last, so they have to match it with better music than the last 😀
Ah Ravana, the Primal of War. He has an insect-like Body and fights with three different battlestances: A neutral four handed swordstance, an offensive focused fire stance with two greatswords and a defensive oriented weaponless earthen stance, using energy waves.
I wish the same person who sings this would do the smokey mountain song from the hobbit.
A live video from a people who went to a fanfest in 2016… audio wasnt great, but looking into "the primals" might give you some leads

Given your enjoyment of the soundtrack, would you ever consider playing FFXIV? It has an extremely generous free trial period, and you've amounted a significant FFXIV player following whom I'm sure will be glad to help you get started! (Myself included)
For a change of pace the next song should totally be FFXIV'S Titania's Theme aka The Fairy King.
Please please please react to BFG division from Doom.
Honestly, I love your videos, just play the game already. All the song lyrics tie in to the game's story and the biggest part I think you miss is that most bosses have different music for each phase. And as they go on through their game development, the choreography to the music gets so tight, it's masterful artistry. This fight is actual apart of the free trial.
my question is: did you began to play ff14 after listening to so many cool songs yet? oh yeah btw, this fight is on the free trial 😀
You need to check out Return to Oblivion from FFXIV!
Congratulations man, you have opened the floodgates mate!
FFXIV fans is VERY passionate about their music and the main composer, Soken, behind it all. 😉
Another sick track for you to react to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jVAgd9dbYIs
its a nier X ff14 track from an ff14 raid, its soo good
You said you wanted to hear it live? Here ya go https://youtu.be/2jPLSqiJRjo Done by the Primals, which is ff14's in house band. The lead guitarist is Soken, who writes all the music for 14, and the Singer is Koji, who is the head of english translation
Vocalist is Dan Inoue but im sure people alread said that
Not sure how much you know about Genshin Impact, but La Signora Battle Theme is a long and dope one. Plenty of different genres mashed into perfection.
That or Bury The Light from Devil May Cry 5
I hear this song on my car, and I sing together everytime. The lyrics, everything is so cool
Since no one has chimed in, the tiny voices you are hearing are the Gnath, the insectoid beast tribe of which Ravana rules over. They are singing along with the lyrics because they are Ravanas hype-men in this battle.
Fun fact: While many of the bosses in FF14 are based on bosses and monsters found in previous FF games, Ravana is something made for FF14 and I hope he'll be included in future FF games alongside the mainstays.
unbending steel (duality)
What a wonderful way to end a day of work 🙂
Edit: the bottom on the lyrics song is just how hungrychad likes to signal the next line of lyrics. Its very possible there were times where signing was done underneath.
oh! jessie… if you havnt already heard it, you should listen to Susano's song as well. Him and Ravana are like 2 halfs of the same coin 😀
They both Revel in battle and their songs reflect that.
It's not that every song gets more Epic than the last, just that SE has hit the upper bounds of Epic and just exist their now. When you had Uematsu as lead composer and decided to follow his retirement with Soken you can't expect differently. 😀
"The Airbuster" from FFVII Remake is a must listen imo
Would you give this game a try jesse? Its free trail is unlimited play time and includes the first expansion, which this exact fight is from.
Great reactions, been loving your insight into these songs it is very entertaining. One thing about ff14 Boss Themes is they almost always come in two parts, the first and second half of the fights are different music. I would recommend trying to find videos that have both the first and second phases of fights to hear the entirety of the music.
Bro hands down my FAVOURITE part about recently getting into FFXIV is…. I go into a dungeon, or a raid and just immediately my first thought is "how much of a banger is this song going to be?" and I've not been disappointed yet. One that blew my socks off was "Locus" from the raid Alexander…. I spent the entirety of the fight jamming out LMAO.
Did anybody else recommend Cowboy Bebop's "Tank!" by Seatbelts?
Looking forward to Titania, Lakshmi and Sophia, the primal ladies.
Lore: the ants summon the Big Ant. It has 4 swords and is combatsexual.
Alright if we going with boss music then 'Metal: Brute Justice Mode' and 'Locus' (Alexander Theme) are both pretty darn good. If you want something with some interesting guitaring then I'll recommend 'Amatsu Kaze' (Byakko Theme)
Heya new here, I'd love to hear your thoughts and reaction to Shiva's theme from FF14 too :3 It's got quite a rock kind of theme for it in the second phase
There are so many great picks in ffxiv! Another song I would like to recommend is Bismark's phase 2 theme "Woe That is Madness". It's by far one of my favourite tracks in this game!
As I once said to describe this singers voice to a friend, "a voice deeper than the Mariana Trench."
Just based off your EW and Flames of Truth reaction…and now that you're listening to LITERALLY my favorite song in the series, out of all the masterpieces…yeah, totally liked the vid before even watching it <3 brother
This fame has something for everyone. If you play only for the music it is still legit awesome. And you have not even tipped the iceberg. Hope you continue to do these videos. Have you done Byako’s theme yet?
Ah, Unbending Steel, the song sung by a person who hates singing yet has an amazing voice!
Also here's a lil' something, I recommend listening to a song called "Under the Weight", full on metal, there's basically 2 versions, one is called "The Primals" version which is an official band from the FFXIV team, they remix their own songs to basically have just guitar + drums, sometimes they go crazy, sometimes they take it back, with Under the Weight they go crazy with Lyrics, so fast you can't even tell what they're saying without looking up lyrics XD
And there's the second version, which is the original version, which includes 4 other segments of the theme in front of it that don't have lyrics and are much shorter (Weight of a Whisper, Weight of His Will, Weight of World, Heartless, and finally Under the Weight), definitely should give it a listen! Both versions are a lot about guitar, drums, and aggressive fast paced rap and yelling XD
Very much recommend "Weight of the World (Prelude Version)" but HIGHLY suggest you listen to the original version first so you can see what a stark contrast the two versions are
Also Ruby Weapon's theme for guitar tax c:
Since you asked, it's not real throat singing. They said they pitch-shifted someone with a deep singing voice.
Man, you blew up fast! I've been subbed to you since you were around 500 subs and it wasn't that long ago! I loved your Answers reaction the most but this one is fun to watch because you look like you're really enjoying it, lol.
Not sure if this was mentioned before. but each boss fight theme matches the personality of that boss. Ravana is a battle junky. Loving war, combat and conquest.
You should react to the Shiva Fight theme.
You should watch THE PRIMALS live perform sir!
Soken loves using gravitas to improve the theme overall
