YouSeeBIGGIRL / Apple Seed - Attack on Titan OST [Piano]

The famous music of “YOU DAMM TRAITORS!!!“ (ep 31) and “Thank you, for wrapping this scarf around me“ (ep 37). Sheet Music → This Soundtrack from Attack on Titan is also known as “Apple Seed” (ep 52), which is the vocalized version of “YouSeeBIGGIRL”. The OST is played in many important moments of the Anime but the most famous example is probably episode 31, when Eren is shouting “YOU TRAITORS!!!“ after that two characters showed their true identities as “Warriors“. It’s also used in episode 37, in the dramatic moment when Mikasa tells Eren “Thank you, for wrapping this scarf around me.“ Until today, this scene is still one of my favorite scenes in the Attack on Titan anime and I tried my best to create a piano version of “YouSeeBIGGIRL” with a similar dramatic impact as the original soundtrack. ① “The beginning of the tragedy” Attack on Titan is essentially a story about one tragedy after another and I have structured my arrangement of YouSeeBIGGIRL in a similar way: It starts with a melancholic beginning in 0:01 until the first tragedy unfolds in 1:04. After the first climax in 2:33 it is followed by a moment of silence in 3:49 until the next “happening” starts in 4:52, culminating in an emotional finale in 5:40. I realized that the more anime soundtracks I arrange, the more I enjoy the process of including “story-telling” in the music. ② “Something BIG is coming” I was thinking for a long time how to arrange the long musical buildup in 2:10 before the BIG climax crashes down in 2:33. The original piece has a pulsating drum rhythm playing in the background during 2:10 but I realized that imitating the rhythm alone on the piano is not enough. Therefore, I also added some chord progressions in the left hand in 2:22 to slowly build up the tension. And after some experimenting, I also included a small pause in 2:31 to maximize the impact of the climax in 2:34. ③ An “alternative” ending The original soundtrack has a part of “Vogel in Käfig” in the second half but I have arranged a full version of this piece already. I could have simply ended the arrangement at 3:45 but I had a feeling the arrangement is still missing one half. That’s where I had the idea to include the soundtrack “ətˈæk 0N tάɪtn” in 3:51 to bring this arrangement to a musically satisfying conclusion. In 5:16 and 5:28 I even combined the right hand motif from “YouSeeBIGGIRL” with the main melody of “ətˈæk 0N tάɪtn”, foreshadowing the final climax in 5:40. In a way, this arrangement combines the two most important soundtracks from Season 1 and Season 2, representing the struggles ＜Humans vs Titans＞ in the early story arcs of Attack on Titan. Alright, thank you for reading this week’s video description! I also updated the missing “Animenz Explains“ column in “Vogel in Käfig“ video description! Try to compare these two arrangements since they are related “musical twins“! This is probably the last Attack on Titan piano arrangement for the foreseeable future and starting next upload, there will be more pieces from seasonal anime again! See you in the next video again!
