  • Sooo.....why exactly is this masterpiece being compared to Twilight?

  • Awesome music! I really agree with SamiMacKenzie,this movie has much more feeling than Twilight.

  • I love the brassy-ness of this song! I love brass instruments!

  • I played this song alongside the Terminator 2 main theme....epicness was born.

  • I honestly cannot believe how amazing this song, and this composer is. I just discovered joe because of a short independent film for the Cannes Festival that used the theme from "Kids Return". I thought it was one of the catchiest and prettiest things I hear, lo and behold to find out he composed for Mayazaki movies. I now come back and realize that I watched all of those movies, but never really paid attention to the music. it's really different listening without any visual distractions.

  • powerful music

  • Guess what I'm watching this weekend for the billionth time? lol This song brings back memories and sends shivers down my spine! I love all of Miyazaki's films <3 I can never be sick of them and they teach life lessons that you don't see in many films nowadays..anyway, thanks for uploading MyCrunchieCookie! :D

  • i wish they made a sequel to this that shows chuhiro and haku meeting when they are older!

  • SHIVERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

  • Dem horns. Shivers down my spine. Every. Time.

  • Every time I hear this song, my hair stands on end Miyazaki-style.

  • i love this song and day of the river the most :3 This is my favorite movie of all time!

  • There's never been a movie that made me feel like this.

  • Comment removed

  • Favorite track from this movie!

  • best movie ever!! love all miyazaki films!!! XDDD <3

  • This movie always makes me belive its real(:

  • This music intimidates me!

  • I'm a 21 year old guy, and this movie still keeps me up at night, yet I'm always drawn to it, intimidated, yet curious. The initial experience of being immersed in an alien, exotic world soaked with humor, horror, true love, and travesty, all from a little girl's perspective.

    The unthinkable meets reality, like the Stink Spirit actually just a deplorably polluted river.

    This movie has my imagination running wild

  • Iike every character in this movie , but my favourite are the Faceless Ghost(or what's his name?) and Haku.

  • @9001Erwin No Face!

  • @strokesfan1107 Thanks :D

  • i really love haku >__<

    i wish i knew if he and chihiro ever meet again. i wanna know so badly ;A;

  • hehe :3<3

  • I actually had an emotional attachment to Haku as a kid, because he was so cool and seemed so caring. xD

  • The turning into pigs thing scared me when i was little so i never ate anything until someone told me it was okay to eat what what being offered.

  • This song reminds me of how amazing Haku is....

  • I love this movie so much! In my opinion it's Studio Ghibli's best, which is saying something since all Studio Ghibli films are *amazing.* Listening to this makes me want to watch it again...

  • OMFG!! There are no amount of words that can describe the emotional crippling i go through from 1:57 to 2:15 - the amount of emotions that burst out here, romance, sadness, serenity wow - ITS BREATH-TAKING Makes me feel like i could go to the edge of the world, jump off and be caught by Haku <3 WOW - i think i've lost my mind O.o

  • HAKU IS SOOOOOOOO HOT!!!!!!!

  • I watch Spirited Away every single weekend. I can quote whole ten-minute scenes...

  • This in my FAVORITE MOVIE!!! My youtube name was inspired by Haku...

  • Have you heard the korean version spirited away O.O Haku;s voice sounds sort of like ashitaka(korean version) so like a 16 ~24 year old voice...

    Haku's different voices

    Japanese Soft voice

    English Strong

    Korean awkward but still good :)

  • All these comments..... I'm not the only Haku fangirl after all.XD

  • ok so if you've seen this movie and Howl's moving Castle haku looks like young howl. it's really wierd!!! if you agree thumbs up!!!

  • "You shouldn't be here, get out of here NOW! Leave before it gets dark! You have to get across the river, GO! i 'll distract them!"

  • @BloodOfAutumn hahaha....hakus line :'3

  • my daughter saw this movie in japanese for the first time^^ then in english and finally in german^^ she always loved haku the most*grins

  • Awwww, Haku is way too kute <3. Love him <3

  • Hakuuu... :D

  • i love haku!!! although the english voice actor looks like a ken doll dipped in acid!! xD

  • @herna2418 lol ha ha ha ha ha!!!

  • I listen to this and it's like falling in love with Haku all over again. :"'''>

  • this soundtrack and movie are gorgeous...its so crazy i saw this for the first time when i was about 16. id never seen anything of this genre and had no idea what to expect. i remember thinking this was some dumb kid's movie....by the end i was crying like a baby :) definitely one of my all-time favs now.

  • @ctswright i cried too so did my Mom!!!!

  • I remember seeing this movie as my first animated video ever, it was such a mind opener, and the scene where haku and chihiro falling was so heartwarmind, then when she had to leave it all behind, man what a great movie, so many mixed feelings

  • Like if you get goosebumps during this scene.

  • this movie is my life.

  • When I first saw this movie, when I was about 9 or 10, I immediately got a crush on Haku...

    >///////< I'm so embarassed, lol.

  • @napajwolf13 No need, so many of us did

  • This song brings back so many memories. It might sound strange, but when I listen to this, it actually reminds me of my best friend, who was also my first crush ever. He used to watch this movie with me all the time, and it was his favorite song. He would hum it when the movie was playing or even when we were just walking around my town and chilling together. Good times. :)

  • My favorite movie since 2002 :)

  • @PoisondMind It's a great movie, but I like Mononoke Hime more! :D

  • who the HELL disliked this video??!?!?!?!

  • @Zelda4evrasian Missclicks man, missclicks.

  • epic!

  • The movie that started it all for me<3

  • This has been my favorite movie since I was 10. Words cannot describe how much I love Miyazaki and all he does.

  • Have an image of Haku in your mind. o.o It's soooo ahhhsome~<3

  • When I was smaller, Spirited Away used to scare me to no end. but now that I'm old enough to see and appreciate the real story line, I'm quite happy to say that I firmly believe Spirited Away is the best movie of all time. People love twilight so much; Twilight is one girl trying to decide what boyfriend she wants, why do people love that crap so much? Spirited Away is about finding your inner strength and courage to fight for whats right. I wish more people saw things the was Miyazaki-sama does

  • @SamiMacKenzie It`s also about reminding who you are, and not forget how we were when we were kids.That`s why the changing name thing, it meant that Yubaba stole her identity and she recovered it. Sorry if my english is not so good D: Why does it scared you??

  • @SamiMacKenzie Ur completely right.Twilight is a JUNK heap.Spirited Away is my FAVORITE movie of all time.I really hope Miyazaki makes a Spirited Away 2, but it's not likely.The end was so sad...

  • @DragonMusic2000 i'd rather see miyazaki make a new film than get sucked into the sequel business. *cough* cars 2 *cough*

  • @DragonMusic2000 why was it sad? I think she'll remember everything because right as it she's about to get in the car, you see her hair-tie band thing that Zeniba made flash in her hair.. might be a clue..

  • @SamiMacKenzie imho, the best animated film is fantasia, but i do agree that spirited away is an excellent film.

  • @IlersichProductions Ah, fantasia was great too, but I still like Spirited Away just that little bit more. [:

  • @SamiMacKenzie i agree with you. but also realize that some people tend to relate to a story, movie, book, song based on what is going in their life at the moment. and if you a romanciaist then twilight is your thing, if your about adventure and finding oneself then Spirited away is your thing. its all about emition and how we relate to what we see, read, hear.

  • @SamiMacKenzie Thank you! more people should talk about Spirited Away than that dumb twilight crap.

  • @SamiMacKenzie the main reason why they like the movie so much is because of the guys. Trust me, if they had putted in difrent guys NO ONE would watch it!

  • 1:55 is sooooo beautiful >.<

  • sen...SEN! I WANT SEN!!!!

  • "Heh, still see-through."

  • Suuuuch a magical movie - Joe Hisaishi is a genious, as is Hiyao Miyazaki. The two are a match made in heaven :D I love his movies, but none of them were/are as beautiful as Spirited Away, in my opinion.

  • I will find the spirit world and marry Haku, and you all are invited to our wedding. 

  • @blondierow NOOOOOOOOOOO. Haku's mine :''((

  • @TheDindi11 lol, you could be my sister wife.

  • "In the name of the wind and water within me, unbind her!"

  • wow when i listen to this, its like the movie playing in my head.

  • Imagine, a powerless queen facing the devastating role of her entire life, watching as her people suffer and die under the hands of an evil monster.

  • I remember falling inlove with Kohaku at the age of 3 ... <3 

  • I need to watch this movie again.... Anytime I listen to soundtracks from Miyazaki's films I just have the urge to watch them again!! -^-^-

  • @SpiritMari you can watch most of them at gogoanime(dot)com

  • This song gives me chills... Every time...

  • I can't get enough of this song!

  • W...wow. This is just EPIC!

  • If you really like this movie, get howls moving castle!

    Another amazing classic by this guy. Get Mononoke as well.

    Assuming you haven't already seen those...

  • @asdfghjkl10531 Seen, and loved. :3

  • @asdfghjkl10531 Mononoke Hime is my all time favorite even to this day XD

  • Trrrrrumpets. Always sending shivers done my bones, maybe also trombones : D

    The classical soundtracks of Mr Hisashi are ingenious.

  • @benutzer29915022 French Horns too =3

  • I still feel this is a lot like l'oiseau du feux

  • i feel so lucky that i have autoreplay :fuckyea:

  • Thumbs up if you are the 103 000 viewer...

  • HAKU <3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • My first ever anime movie...

  • this song, its so powerful.

    hisaishi makes miyazaki's films come to life. <3

  • when i was little, i thought haku was hot...

  • @blueberriesncupcakes

    I still do. Well, at first, I thought he was a girl though, so I wasn't so sure.. But now, if there's somebody on this earth who is as attractive and caring as Haku, I'd die. XD

  • I love Sprited Away so much! It is one of my all time favourite movies! I love Princess Mononoke, My Neighnour Totoro, Howls Moving Catle and Kiki's Delievery Serive! Everyone else was listing other anime movies so I listen mine!

    I also liked Ponyo!

  • Watching this movie right now lol, love the entire sound track and Haku is quite handsome :) one of my favorite Anime movies of all time, right next to, Howls Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke

  • This is okay, but for some reason it doesn't sound half as good as I remember it...

  • Haku!!!! Love his character :D

  • "You shouldn't be here, GET OUT OF HERE NOW!!!!!"

  • @realafan888 This movie is my life. Oh my god....

  • @realafan888 How changes the traduction! In spanish that phrase is: "No deberías estar aquí,¡tienes que irte!" (You shouldn't be here, you have to leave!)

  • @realafan888 It was scary how well i read that, and i havent seen this movie in atleast 5 years

  • my favorite movie is princess mononoke <3 but spirited away is such a great movie

    loved haku most of all <3 xD

  • <3

  • this movie made me cry so many times, even at just the little bits at the beginning when Haku is comforting Chihiro when shes crying TT____TT

  • I remember watching this movie when I was 5 I couldn't remember the name,and I remembered the movie for years and years and after 6 years I found the movie again and I was so happy,and now today I still love Spirited Away :)

  • Yeah, even though that pig transformation part creeped the mess out of me, this was a fantastic movie.

  • It's crazy how everyone remembers such similar things about the movie from when they were younger. I was definitely a little creeped out, but the first scene in the spirit town where her parents turn into pigs was definitely the most vivd for me. I recenetly re-watched it and cried at the end, what a fantastic and sweet movie.

  • @kitchenflails I was too young when I saw it... 6 or 7 at most... It scared me silly for some reason

  • I looooooooooove this movie! <3 

  • when i was little i watched this and it scared me out of my mind! now once i saw it again it brought back memories...now its one of my favorite movies! :)

  • When I first saw this movie the number one thing that got me was the soundtrack, I'll never forget that day.

  • Everyone here talks about remembering a girl with spirits but when I was younger I remember the food at the beginning, and how much I wanted to be there and eat it with her parents. It wasn't till years later I watched it again and understood it. This is one of my favourite movies and will always be. <3

  • This is awesome! Sounds slightly like the theme of the Unsolved Mysteries show in it.

  • Gives me super chills...

  • Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooo goooood!!!!! o.o

  • joe hisaishi is truly a genius worthy of playing his music for hayao miyazaki: the story teller. i could see a story running through my head as i listened to this song

  • i'm in looovvvveee

  • "What's up with him?"

  • Comment removed

  • omg. the beginning is so beautiful. i'm absolutely mesmerized.

  • this movie is still my favorite ater all these years..i remember watching it when i was just ten years old.

  • I want to find the spirit world, meet Haku and never leave....EVER. I'd tell my parents not to follow me and leave behind any regrets.=^-^= Ah....

  • Staring of 1:06 til about 1:20 just gives me the most chills everytime. Although, i love the whole song. One of my favorite tracks from this movie :)

  • my favorite part is the beginning <3 so dramatic!! i can imagine the part of the movie where the beginning of this song was LOVE that part
