Finale - Game of Thrones Season 1

All rights (legal and intellectual) belong to Ramin Djawadi

This song plays in the last scene of Season 1 of Game of Thrones. Daenerys has just walked into the funeral pyre holding Khal Drogo's body and Mirri Maz Duur. The scene features an opening of Jorah Mormont walking through the dirt toward the ashes of the pyre. It pans to Daenerys curled in on herself covered in soot, naked, and unhurt. When she rises, her three newborn dragons climb up and around her. We see a sweeping scene of her khalasar's reactions, Jorah, and Daenerys and her dragons before leading into the credits.

Personal Analysis

This song's ingenuity stems from its brilliant gradient of thematic choices and polyrhythmic feel. This song encapsulates the emotion of the moment, Daenerys's season arc, and the overall Game of Thrones story.

The songs carries a light 3/4 feel throughout the theme in which Djawadi switches emphasis between the eighth note and quarter note depending on the feeling Djawadi strove to convey. In other words, sometimes the song felt like it moved in 3/4, other times it felt like it moved in 6/8, and other times it felt like both. I found this mostly derived from how Djawadi voiced the melody and counter melod(ies) at any given time. Daenerys's theme feels polyrhythmic because the melody is smooth and legato in feel but it is underscored by the intensity and syncopated articulation of the masterful percussion. The percussion creates a lulling melody that holds an intensity and flame not yet seen on Game of Thrones thus far.

Finally, Daenerys's arc in this season culminates with a theme that represents the depths and layers to the development of her character. The theme embodies elements of magic and prowess. Daenerys's theme is zealous, grand, and refined.

The song features three main builds -- with the last being the final climax featuring the most layered instrumentation and rhythmic complexity.

1st Climactic Build (00:37 - 00:48)

The song opens with a general stillness and strained anticipation.

The initial ametric feeling in the beginning gains stability with the subtle and delicate hinting of Daenerys's theme.

The low resonant tone and drawn out flourishes from the cello add to a sparse introduction in Dm. However, Djawadi uses the parallel major to unnerve the audience. When the violin enters, it plays octaves above the cello and layers in an eerie version of Daenerys's theme. This upper register leans into the major 7th of Amaj, G#. This creates a feeling of ominous hollowness until Daenerys's full theme surges, bringing depth, fullness, and resolution to the piece.

The transition into this first climactic moment features an ascending melody that leads into a succinct, strong down beat of an epic lullaby. The mix of Armenian and Indonesian drums offers a more textured percussion experience compared to many Hollywood cinematic scores. The voice of the percussionists shines, providing a daring sort of energy that incites anticipation and an edge of tenacity as we hear Daenerys's theme flourish for the first time in the series.

2nd Climactic Build (00:48 - 01:10)

This section features a brisk 3/4 as the driving pulse of this section to allow audiences to savor this theme and the bask in the glory of Daenerys's miraculous triumph.

It features an eighth note lick which outlines a triad by starting at the root and third, quickly visiting the fifth, and returns to the third. This pattern changes with the chord progression bringing us through Fmaj and Bbmaj until the theme begins to swell. It finally crests with a sonorous moment from the ensemble and chorale back into Dm.

We revel in the strength, the passion, and the wonder of the moment.

3rd Climactic Build (1:50 - 2:01)

This 8 measure reprise of the Main Theme eventually returns to a 6/8 feel compared to a 3/4, and it slowly becomes more fluid. This fosters an elegant tone compared to that of the feverish melody and instrumentation featured in the middle section of the theme.

It features an impactful running eighth note lick in which the percussion emphasizes each quarter note beat giving the moment a triplet feel. Simultaneously, ascending eighth note run layered over top gives the lick a duplet feel, which when compounded with the percussion adds to the intensity and anticipation of the song's zenith.

With this last climactic build, Djawadi creates a satisfyingly powerful, delicate, and triumphant return to our true story: a Song of Ice and Fire.

Score

Intensity: 4 Melancholia: 1 Timbre Complexity: 4 Goosebumps: 5 Build: 5 Personal Nostalgia: 2

hi brace yourselves im starting my 5th? 6th? rewatch of game of thrones and i have some thoughts:

the first scenes with the starks are AMAZING at showing us what each of them is like

we could have done without the whitewalkers prologue and just learn about it from the desertor and not know whether it's a real threat until jon meets them

#game of thrones #got season 1 #also: jon

One of my favorite trope for Steddie is Steve hunting down Eddie when the kids join Hellfire and giving him a long list of dos and donts.

At first Eddie thinks he’s just being a prick, and worried he’s going to turn the nerds into freaks like him. Especially when he says not to mention drugs in front of Dustin.

But then he starts pulling out lists of monsters that can’t be in campaigns. And like what??? Why can’t he use demagorgons? They were gonna be in the next combat! He’s tempted to ignore the warnings, in fact he’s all set to, but something about Steve’s face when he was laying it all out haunts him. Something so deadly serious about it. So first he decides to test the waters to see if he’s full of shit.

When the session starts, he makes a throwaway comment, “you’re acting like there’s a mindflayer around the corner.”

All the kids freeze but Wheeler especially looks like he’s going to be sick. He even grabs at the bracelet around his wrist. The one he always said his best friend made him before he moved.

Eddie curses himself for even trying to test it out after that, and immediately bullshits the whole session so he can scrap any hint of demogorgans from the campaign.

After that session he drives straight to Harringtons house and demands they go over all the things he can’t include again, in detail, while he takes notes.

He doesn’t know what’s going on with these freshmen, but he knows trauma when he sees it and well he’d gotten attached to the gremlins.

When he leaves that night, he thinks Steve is looking at him with approval. Like he trusts him with their well-being now.

#stranger things #eddie munson #steve harrington #mike wheeler #lil bit of byler #just a hint #also I firmly believe there’s not enough Eddie and Mike content in this fandom #like Mike worshipped him too #styled himself after him #and arguably needs Eddie more than Dustin does since he’s already got Steve #idk why I just feel like if anyone can kill season 3 and 4 Mike it’s Eddie #bring back my sweet season 1 and 2 leader who puts his friends before everything else #steddie #mine
