The Songs of Supergiant Games - Remember the Bastion (Music Video)

Composer Darren Korb traveled all the way to world-famous Studio Two at Abbey Road Studios in London to record the music for "The Songs of Supergiant Games: The 10th Anniversary Orchestral Collection". He is joined by vocalist Ashley Barrett, conductor/arranger Austin Wintory, and a talented team of musicians in this intimate music video for the closing track on the album that was filmed live during the recording sessions.

Lyrics:
I dig my hole, you build a wall
I dig my hole, you build a wall
One day that wall is gonna fall

Gon' build that city on a hill
Gon' build that city on a hill
Someday those tears are gonna spill

So build that wall and build it strong
'Cause we'll be there before too long

Gon' build that wall up to the sky
Gon' build that wall up to the sky
Someday your bird is gonna fly

Gon' build that wall until it's done
Gon' build that wall until it's done
But now you've got nowhere to run

So build that wall and build it strong
'Cause we'll be there before too long
-------
I set my sail;
Fly, the wind it will take me
Back to my home, sweet home

Lie on my back,
Clouds are making way for me
I'm coming home, sweet home

I see your star,
You left it burning for me;
Mother, I'm here

Eyes open wide,
Feel your heart and it's glowing
I'm welcome home, sweet home

I take your hand,
Now you'll never be lonely
Not when I'm home, sweet home

I see your star,
You left it burning for me
Mother, I'm here
-------
Lie on my back,
Clouds are making way for me.
I'm coming home, sweet home.

Build that wall and
Build it strong, 'cause
We'll be there before too long

I dig my hole, you build a wall
I dig my hole, you build a wall
One day that wall is gonna fall

Gonna build that wall up to the sky
Gonna build that wall up to the sky
One day your bird is gonna fly

Build that wall and
Build it strong, 'cause
We'll be there before too long

[Geno]

That man playing the harp as an amazing mustache.

[NohorseRU]

6:05 god, it's been years, but to this day as soon as I hear the first lines of "Setting sail coming home" (or "Mother, I'm here") my eyes get teary.
All of Bastion's soundtrack was and still is bangers.

[LastLombax]

So you're telling me we can get the album HOWEVER you posted a lot of the music for free on youtube? I freaking love you guys

[MyOwnSunnyDay]

It must be every developer's dream to go from a great little game like Bastion to a GOTY contender like Hades within 4 games, knowing you made it all the way up by yourselves, congratulations Supergiant Games.

[addressunknown]

"so what instrument do you play?" - "hammer and wrench"

[VickiToori]

I have no words, Bastion was the first game of yours that I played and I still hold it so dearly; listening to this really brought tears to my eyes

[deluxeloy]

I'm always a little bit surprised when I am reminded that Ashley and Red do in fact not look the same.

[awintory]

I wanna do this every week. Best week ever

[Annokh]

Those hammer&wrench deserve to appear in credits without being hidden under that modest "percussion number whatever".

[jimmyjazz]

Folks from Caelondia knew how to carry a tune
. Sure, we've got some songs on the old gramophone, but tryin' to imagine what they sounded like playin' to a room full of fine people, unwindin' at the Sole Regret right after a hard day's were the days.

[TeenoGames]

That Spike on a Rail segment was amazing

[jimmypints]

Holy shit, so "Remember the Bastion" was actually a compilation of a bunch of Bastion songs into one track? I may pick up that vinyl after all

[Justagamerhere]

In an AMA many years ago Darren Korb said how much he enjoyed Abzu. The seed of collaboration was planted.

[a.szpadel]

"Set Sail, Coming Home" this version is even more touching.

[Fantashic]

Long way from recording in a closet. Ya love to see it! <3

[Skulboi_]

the title of the song will always be funny for me, as if it's genuienly possible to experience Bastion and forget it

[alexpfernandes]

I know some of you might take this for granted because nowadays everything should be "free", but if you love what you hear like me, consider buying the vinyl or CD. I've tried to become a professional musician myself (unsuccessful) and I know the countless hours every single musician have to put into practice so they can be at a level that you guys are hearing. This actually encourages Supergiant to produce more of this amazing music content and we will have more alternatives to the bullcrap that is Spotify top 50.

[Majevel]

holy god. when that violin hit, no joke took me aback and left me speechless for like 2 minutes

[codebracker]

Mancer's dilema is such a great track

[earthrequiem]

Hitting the like button doesn't even come close to conveying the feelings this brought me
