[lexlex11223344]

i know in the beginning he says lets go eat after we do this, then the bear say sounds good. the rabbit says lets go.

then in the song they talk about relaxing and stuff

[ukemike1]

if you want a translation click on "view all comments" it's all down there. the main lyric is a very rough translation of the song title.

[esbensloth]

@sphelps31 but the Ventures was an instrumental band, the original didn't have any lyric.

I really hope these U900 videos get subtitles, they're so brilliant.

[sphelps31]

@L666A isn't it Walk don't Run by the Venutres?

[L666A]

Seriously want to know what they're singing about

[lemonnne]

I love it when the bunny rocks out.

[Nonbirira]

Even without understanding the Japanese this is TOO cute! But knowing the Japanese makes it even cuter! "Kanpeki!" (= Perfect!)

[RoadhouseKiss]

@ign74! I'm 6'2" with tatoos growing out of my ears. Imagine the looks I get, when I sing it!

[ign74]

[dagie100]

Häkeltiere mit Ukulelen sind sowieso das beste! Oops, sorry: Crochet animals with ukuleles are the best!!!

[lynerob]

I keep coming back to watch too! Unfortunately I'm starting to sing it too! LOL!

[annagracious]

I can't stop watching it either! This makes my day - no, my WEEK!

[jedbramwell]

Another kick ass cover of The Ventures.

[MsEiry]

[DJkevvykev]

Thanks to Boing Boing for getting me here.

What's not to like ?!?

Knitted bunny & bear.

Ukuleles.

Stop-motion anime.

Surf- punk Ventures tune.

All boxes ticked.

[kukua91]

what's this! wow so lovely i love it

isoiso gabagaba maware!!

i don't know what those mean but it's enjoyable

[MrDomo66]

Tabarnak?!?!?!

[moominpic]

cool. they used to use this tune as a theme to the cartoon of The Count of Monte Christo.

[mkyagi]

Rough dialogue -

Usagino: So, if we finish early let's go have something to eat. (さ、早く終わるして何か食べにいこう。）

Kumano:Allright.

(そうだね。）

Isogaba maware (急がば回れ) = If hurried, go around (exp: slow and steady wins the race).

Ending:

Usagino: Nailed it!

(完璧 kanpeki ＝flawless)

[Haelis]

My kanji is terrible; do you think maybe you could give me the hiragana or romanji for Usagino's first lines? The voice, though adorable, kind of goes right over my head at the very beginning D:

[mkyagi]

@Haelis

Yeah, as far as I can make out it's: 'sa, hayaku owaru shite nanka tabe ni ikou.'

afterwards he (she/it?) also says 'ikimasu yo / 行きますよ.' or 'We're going!' (effectively 'Let's go!')

[mkyagi]

@mkyagi

Lyrics

Isogabamaware (急がば回れ) = If hurried, go around (exp: slow and steady wins the race)

Nonbiri,bikkuri (のんびり,びっくり ) = Carefree, surprised

Ikou yo (行こうよ) = Let's go!

yukkuri [mattari] (ゆっくり [まったり]) = slowly [laid back]

Shiyou yo (しようよ) = Let's do it!

awatecha dame dame (慌てちゃダメダメ) = Rushing's No Good! Bad!

[ohonkanen]

Cute overload!

[pinkshoessuze]

"iso, iso, gaba, gaba" - is officially my favourite tune :)

[jorditekles]

ey, alguen sabe de donde puedo descargar el cd? el de ukelele ventures?? gracias!!

[awakennaza]

sugoi !!

[xoelts]

AHAHA :D

[kryptman40k]

Could we get an mp3 of this?

[naniktiky]

Love this! More videos!

[outrayjess]

Kawaii. Srsly.

[sweetweni]

so cute!!!

[lulujakub]

This is so CUTE!! How can anybody not love this? The Japanese are cute experts. They are seriously way ahead of the game.

[alienfingers]

The ukulele version is good; it's relaxed, laid back and cheerful, then the Japanese vocals come along and destroy it completely.

[ydpubs]

I totally disagree, the lyrics add to the song and the video. Considering this video's popularity, your opinion is definitely in the minority.

[alienfingers]

Know it's in the minority, but that does not make my opinion invalid. The reason this video is so popular is because of Weaboos.

[MrsErzy]

Jai y Jer

Frieds ;-)

[Jaumesclub]

The best youtube video of all times. El mejor video de youtube de la historia. El millor video de youtube de la historia.

[aliceboy]

My best friend sent me this vid to show to my 2-year-old daughter, and that about fits. So sweet now my teeth hurt!

[stasielynn320]

めっちゃ可愛いですよ！

[LuLuBuLad]

cute *-*

[AllegroRubato]

I APPROVE!

[bluesrunthegame]

As revolting as this is I can't seem to remove this perpetual dopey grin from my face.

'Isogaba..'

[ItsSTU]

At the beginning the rabbit says "lets get this over with quick, so we can go eat". Bear says "yeah". Rabbit says "Let's go".

Most of the rest of the lyrics are "isogabamaware" which is almost like the proverb haste makes waste. On the grass they're talking about relaxing, and going slow. Rushing is bad. After the song the rabbit says "perfect".

[volpotmakmak]

hahah! I get it!

"Let's get this over quickly!" --

"Walk, don't run"

[arnauddendy]

Thanks for the info. I figured it was something like that, but I am glad someone knows for sure. (or you bluff well.)

[Lukehh]

haha the first 4 chords have the same notes and rhythm as the chords in 'Horror Asparagus Stories' by The Driving Stupid

[naniktiky]

This is the best.

[bprivatti]

Very nice clip. I think you should submit it to cartoon and film festivals such as Animamundi, Waterloo Festival for Animated Cinema, International Animation Festival Hiroshima or the London Cartoon Festival

[smiznar]

Found this online: "Isogabamaware" translates roughly to "less haste, more speed". Not quite the same as "Walk Don't Run", but close.

[kewpiebb99]

"Walk Don't run" is the original name of the song by The Ventures. U900 covered it with Ukulele and some Japanese lyrics. Seems like a lot of people here don't get that. Come on people, I thought The Ventures is a fairly well known band and this song is their most well known hit...

[volpotmakmak]

agreed

[livetimefe]

After 1.01 all I can see is the teeth!

[Zookhaarh]

great..... latin music ruined with japanese lyrics....

[kryptman40k]

Its surf rock you idiot.

[Zookhaarh]

South American rumba is the same.

Am G F E

and the scale too

[insomb]

nice tune

[hoshiracco]

Gabagabagaba ♪♪

I love this!

This singer,s voice is cute ,too

[livetimefe]

We need subtitles!!!!!!

[julianreischl]

Why? There's no real need to understand the lyrics.

[Nuuty]

The best musicvideo ever made. Can't wait for more! Keep up the cuteness!

[DoubleAgent99]

hheehehehee TOO CUTE:)

[livetimefe]

OMG Sutman is right. their ukuleles have no strings, but then again , these are amigurumi playing.

If THATS believable, then so are invisible strings!

[kerokerokingDX]

Thank you for your kind comment!

[sutman]

their ukuleles have no strings!

[vendorx]

MOR!!!!!!

[livetimefe]

Orange amigurumi teddy looks pissed off!

[arnauddendy]

Yeah. Thanks. I should read titles, shouldn't I? BTW listen to The Ventures doing this song. Awesome. "Surf Guitar" is a style from before my time, but I know a classic when I hear it (even if I can't remember - or read - duh - what it is.) Thanks. I love this on ukulele. Got me one in Hilo.

[arnauddendy]

Ahhhhh! I go to Japan tomorrow! I LOVE this! But please, somebody tell me the name of that song. I know it, but not as "Isogabamaware." Help!

[LightningRose]

arnauddendy, it's a Surf Guitar classic titled, "Walk, Don't Run".

[babyrat]

It is "Isogabamaware" or " いそがばまわれ".

[ahahahayeahright]

better than sleeping

[linnchillustrations]

bravo :)

[CusterFlux]

What couldn't this sell?

This is a viral add campaign waiting for a product.

[alex4point0]

The Samsung U900 comes up as a related link - same name as the band. It's an ad for the band I suppose - like all film clips.

[alexoid]

Loved it. And I never comment on YouTube. This was wonderful.

[nodnodwinkwinkV]

any chance of subtitles for those who dont speak the language? :)

[frankenc]

Rad

[r1ng0]

can't... stop.. watching.

[fubukifan]

Brilliant!! :D

[pauldodo1]

world domination follows.... :)

[uratonton]

足でリズムとってるのが最高にかわいいー

[acrogers11]
