This version of the song is perfect; the new one destroyed my childhood in fact when I downloaded the new one I cried because Disney fucked it up. can anyone help in find the ORIGNAL English dub?
@Athnar93 This version, no matter the origin, is horrible, despicable and useless. And the Japanese version is been censored on youtube by copyretard from Ghibli...
C'mon people, Disney is accountable for some tawdy dubbing and some miscast, but it hasn't done anything worthy of hating Disney for marketing Ghibli film (and no, Disney does not claim it as its own, all of those trailers explicitly credit Studio Ghibli and Hayao).
Also, Hayao made an agreement with Disney, he's friends with a producer from Disney who is an enthusiastic fan of his. If we are hating Disney dubs, then by extension, we're hating Hayao and not knowing it.
@KingdomDoubled I don't know about everyone else, but I had this on VHS as a kid, and I must have watched it a hundred times. I didn't even know Disney bought it until I started looking for a DVD version a year ago. So yes, I did know about this without Disney promoting it, and yes, Disney did ruin it. They kinda had to, though, because they couldn't buy the voice audio of the movie,and thee voice actor of Satsuki had already died in a car accident. That made me sad.
I wish I could have grown up with this movie, to bad I saw it for the first time when I was 13 TT. TT, but hey that means I can give my kids a Totoro Childhood! In fact when I have a kid I'm gonna make their Nursery Totoro themed, no matter what my future husband says.
@yotsubafanfan I got to grow up with this movie, and it was amazing. It came out shortly before I was born, and when I was little, everytime we went to rent a movie, I'd pick out Totoro.
OH, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I'VE MISSED THE ORIGINAL SO MUCH. I hate the new Totoro dub so much. In the new one the lady who sings plays with her voice too much in all the wrong places. Why couldn't they just remaster the dub they already had?!
Wow looking at all these comments i feel really lucky my mom got the original dub on video when i was younger. I still have it too. i uesd to sing this song all the time when i was little. we were watching the japenese dub in japanese class today which made me think about this
The Disney opening sounds like she is yelling at you to "HEY LETS GO" and I always say " no I don't want to go with you crazy lady" the older one makes me all happy and soothed and I want to go on an adventure with the nice lady.
What really stinks is the voice actor of satsuki in the original streamline dub died and it sticks because everything she dubbed is extremely hard to find and it is mostly because Disney had to stick their noses in something that was already good to begin with and destroyed it. Kiki's delivery service was well re dubbed but I would at least like credit to go where credit is due like having both versions on the dvd but they play it off as if their is no other version better then theirs.
Disney should have never touched this movie, they bought the rights from 20th century fox, why couldn't they just stick this on DVD instead of using horrible re-dubs and ruining a few child hoods in the process. When I have children this is the version they will watch.
@PerkyVampire While I agree this version is superior, I don't think Disney did a bad job (though it admittedly isn't as good as a lot of Disney's other Ghibli dubs). But they legally weren't allowed to use this dub.
@PerkyVampire While I agree that the Disney dub isn't as good as the one Fox used, I don't think it exactly ruined any childhoods. And besides, Disney wouldn't have been able to use that dub because it's property of Fox and not them.
This version blows away Disney's re-dub of the movie. The VAs were great, this rendition of the song was great, the Fanning sisters really murdered my childhood in the re-dub, I mean literally murdered it because for a span of 5 years all I did in my free time was watch the same movies over and over and my favorite one was My Neighbor Totoro.
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME WHO SANG THIS VERSION!!!!!!!!! the Disney version sucks so bad. This is my favorite. Thank you so much for posting this!
I love this english version of the song, because it sounds so sweet and melodic, with the way the lady sings it. The disney version with Sonya Isaacs is just...meh. She sounds more like she's shouting the words and with way too much power, and not enough feeling. The one here, is very kind sounding and compliments the music well.
I can't stand the english version both of them after first watching the original version. another thing is what do fox's and badgers have to do with totoro anyway? I don't ever recall seeing any badgers or foxes in totoro? :S
The Fox DVD has no Japanese audio track, and is non-anamorphic, when you want a DVD with the Troma dub and Japanese versions, and anamorphic video, import the Japanese Disney DVD.
It's good that Disney made Ghibli more popular but they need to stop with the star studded line-up.. really, they need to let unknown voice actors get their break..
@ChibiRobo13 Think about it, who would you rather employ? Established actors or a bunch of no-bodies who would probably butcher the role they're given? Think about it.
@Bloodfont89 Yeah but they're called talent scouts. And interviews. And test runs. Nothing can stop an employer from testing out an actor's skills before they hire them. Just because they're nobodies doesn't mean they can't have talent.
On my school's bus trip to the Tanken center, we watched this with subs. So fun, fond memories. The three hour drive felt like a 3 second drive, and this dvd made it feel muuuch shorter.
Yeah, How dare disney pump a lot of money to into Ghibli films and help make Hayao Miyazaki a world Icon! And helped him be the first Japanese director to win an oscar!!!! .....wait
Seriously, shut up, I dont get whats so bad about the dub, other than weeaboos seein "Dakota Fanning" and gettin butthurt, or just thinkin "all dubs suck. Admittedly I prefer this movie in Japanese, but the dub isnt bad
And Im sure Disney was part of your childhoods long before Miyazaki was
@CanYouSpellBanana The fact she had to replace Daveigh Chase in Lilo and Stitch 2 also really bugs me, sure Dakota and Daveigh are friends but Daveigh IS Lilo. Plus that she had to be a part of that unsuperior version of Charlotte's Web.
@NaSandJayZ It's not that I hate all dubs by Disney. I actually like many of the dubs that Disney had made of the Ghibli films. I absolutely love the Streamline dub of Totoro. I can't stand the disney dub of Totoro mainly for the fact that the singer there sings with far too much power, and doesn't seem to follow the music and medley. That and the voices seemed to be rather uninterested and bored. And the dubbing was so hashed together it was pretty painful. I hated it for lack of effort.
I wanna see the whole thing! My friend owns the english DVD, but I haven't been able to see it and I wanna see it all! Does anyone have a link or know a list of videos that have the whole movie? I would rather see the old one and language doesn't matter.
This is...this is the original opening song ;-; -sniff- I'm so happy. I watched the original VHS version so many times when I was young, I can still hear hte original voices and original script in my head. It's much better than the newer version. Less high pitched and headache causing. T^T thank you for posting this.
ok i saw this movie when i was about three years old. i am now mineteen and still love to watch this. my twenty one year old girlfreind sat down and watched this with me and she loves it! i love his movie beacuse there is NO evil in it. it shows the innocense of youth. and plus no one on here cant tell me they cant smile when they here this! any one know where i can download this version? after watching the disney version i died a little inside.....
For SOME reason they decided not to keep making the VHS of the original english dub. The original is on the VHS version. They then found (for some reason) that putting f****** Dakota Fanning in would somehow make the movie more relatable(sp?) and decided that changing the words and getting new voice actors would be better. My family ACCIDENTALLY bought the DVD unknowing of this, at which point we turned the movie off in the first minute. The original dub has the script unchanged, and better.
@Macedragon37 There's actually a DVD of the original Streamline VHS dub as released by Fox. I have the DVD, in fact. I was so put off by the re-dubbed English opening for the Disney release when I first heard it because the Streamline version is the only one I've heard for years.
her voice is much softer than the disney version and fits more to the japanese original
but i still like the japanese version better, these english lyrics take out some of the weird Japanese singing style (espacially the ready set go doesnt fit to well for my ears)
I have always heard the Disney dub, and I wish I could hear the orignal English version to compare the two. I hear that so-and-so version is better, but I always watch it in Japanese =D
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You all make me want to stab something. Everything about the Disney version of the movie is better then this one, including the songs. You all have horrible taste.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
My take is actually fresher then all of you that scream that. Cause unlike you people I didnt grow up with this movie, so I was able to watch both versions witout a biased opinion like most you have since the Disney one is newer.
I loved this movie when i was 9 years old, Now I still do, bring back memories and always make me feel so ..free of worries and just very happy watching this.
OMG! YOU TOO?! I DIED LAST NIGHT ON THE INSIDE! THEY MESSED UP SO BADLY! T^T I love the VHS better! They made the kids sound weird, Totoro all wrong and the cat bus! *growls*

but i still like the japanese version better, these english lyrics take out some of the weird Japanese singing style (espacially the ready set go doesnt fit to well for my ears)

Hah, did anyone notice the refrence to this song in Ponyo? Sosuke's mom randomly said "I'm happy as can be!" at one point in the movie.

Doesn't matter who who disney picks in the version. It can't BEGIN to compare to the original

Damn this song is awesome! The 90's Totoro dub was amazing!

I have always heard the Disney dub, and I wish I could hear the orignal English version to compare the two. I hear that so-and-so version is better, but I always watch it in Japanese =D

You all make me want to stab something. Everything about the Disney version of the movie is better then this one, including the songs. You all have horrible taste.

My take is actually fresher then all of you that scream that. Cause unlike you people I didnt grow up with this movie, so I was able to watch both versions witout a biased opinion like most you have since the Disney one is newer.

The Disney opening is sooooo bad. Everytime I see Dakota Fanning's name on the credit list I die a little inside.
