Okay but guys remember how Viktor revealed that the part where the drums start is the part where Viktor became Yuri’s coach in the previous episode?
That just made the song so much deeper for me.
The first part where only the piano is heard, represents when Yuri was all alone and depressed and lacked all confidence.
Then, Yuri meets Viktor, and the drums start playing. Notice how the piano starts to get so much more upbeat and how perfectly it flows along with the drums? That is the part where Yuri really starts to develop himself as a person; the moment Viktor came into his life.
And then, the drums leave for a moment, and the piano suddenly get’s so much slower. I feel like this represents Yuri being alone with his thoughts again, trying to figure out why he was suddenly feeling so “upbeat”and happy, because it confused him.
Then, as the piano starts to pick up the pace again, that is the moment that he finally begins to realize: his true feelings for Viktor. His feelings of love.
Then, the drums kick in again, Yuri opens up to Viktor about his feelings and Viktor “meets him where he is”, playing along with the pace the piano is already in to create the most beautiful music.
Together they create such a beautiful harmony. The piano and the upbeat drums. Yuri and Viktor. Yuri on Ice.
Wow nice. I listened to it a few times after reading your post. I think Viktor is actually the violin and the drums are their heartbeats merging to create a stronger melody. Yuri did say that Viktor’s programs are like he is telling a story, and the violin is know to do that as well. When the drums go away at the end, the violin and piano are still able to create a beautiful harmony without it. Their beats are that strong that the violin and piano suffice well on their own together.
A lot of people actually also think that Viktor represents the violin, and not the drums. I also agree on the fact that the violin instrument suits Viktor much better than the drums! So I competely get what you mean!
I personally think that all the added musical instruments that causes the song to become so much more upbeat represents Viktor’s presence. For me, the drums was the most prominent of all the added instruments so I saw that mainly as a representation for Viktor, but when looking at the instruments individually, I also agree on the fact that a violin is a much better representation for him, since a piano and violin are beautiful solo instruments, yet create even better music when combined.
