paradise (live performance)

"Paradise" is a song by Alan Walker, K-391 (the artistic name of Kenneth Nilsen) and Boy in Space (the artistic name of Robin Lundbäck). 

The track is accompanied by an official video and features as the next chapter in the "World of Walker", the story that has been ongoing in previous Alan Walker videos, particularly the music video "Faded". Despite the music video heavily resembling that of "Faded"'s, it was confirmed that it does not serve as its sequel, but rather serves as an expansion behind the 2015 music video's story, meaning that both videos occur at the same time.

A separate official live version was released as a music video under the title "Paradise (Live Performance)".

It was in World Of Walker album release through MER and Sony Music in 2021 as a collaboration with mobile game PUBG Mobile (PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds). 
"Paradise" is used in the game's lobby and vehicle and also features in a release of unique game items of PUBG, a battle royale game on Android and iOS.

The song comes exactly two years after PUBG Mobile used the track "Live Fast (PUBGM)" by Alan Walker and rapper A$AP Rocky as an official anthem of a commercial release of theirs.

theories

According to Walker's theory #62321, the action of the Paradise Live Version takes place before the main events of Paradise.

In this version we can see the scenes before the burning of the house from Faded, where Lily aka #28300 flees from Red Nexus soldiers to the previously mentioned house, where eventually Lily and the rest of the Walkers are captured.
 

The Live version is also accompanied by a music video, which, according to fan theory, would precede the main events depicted in Paradise and Faded. (It should be noted that the canonical status of the music video in the universe remains unconfirmed.)

The narrative takes place in a unique setting, initially depicting the singer in a "tunnel", monitoring the software (presumably an RX-8 drone) of the Red Nexus, suggesting a dangerous environment, possibly enemy territory. The monitor shows the moment Walker #0 arrives with his car.

The scene shifts to the surface, where Alan and K-391 are already engaged in their musical performance. Soon Lily surreptitiously approaches their location, (and her actions suggest awareness of Alan and his comrades, especially evident when she looks at K-391).

Subsequent shots show Red Nexus soldiers with flares entering the walls. Lily's reaction depicts a mixture of surprise, fear and annoyance at their presence, prompting her to flee. Grabbing Alan's car, she flees, leaving him and the others behind, while the soldiers follow her at a deliberate pace.

timeline

Notes:

- As indicated in the timeline, there are several instances where the videos are shown multiple times. This is due to the various flashbacks depicted in them. For example, in "Paradise," scenes depict Lily painting a house, among other things.

- The entire timeline revolves around clips that took place between 2013 and 2025 (what we call the Modern Walkers Era)

- It is worth noting that the "Paradise Live Performance" does not necessarily conform to canon. This is only a speculative theory and has not been officially confirmed.

- Alone on the timeline is placed first, but its placement in time is not very important (and is only speculation)

- Also, the placement of Heading Home, Live At Chateu and Alone Pt. II may differ
