  • I love this song!

  • Anything Ghibli! Every Ghibli peice of music is great. Now stop whinging and love it!

  • the original song is great; this cover lacks completely lacks taste.

  • frankie jonas is about my age (maybe a little younger) and i think its so sweet the way he says "and when i'm skipping with her, my heart feels a difference" and i luv dis song so STOP THE NERD RAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why fix things that ain't broken :P

  • i have no idea why americans have to make a techno version out of everything.

    I feel like techno is so inappropriate for a childrens movie =/ I think a movie for children has to have a melodic thats easy for them to sing =(

  • cute song

  • If you dont like something then dont say anything!! Love this song is awesome!

  • Loveit

  • Studio Ghibli goes techno... *facepalm*

  • NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

  • if you dont like it dont listin to is god why complain!

  • catchy but they can't compare to the cuteness of the original song

    It happens to all anime op and stuff I mean lookit Pokemon D:

  • fhuck this is terrible.

  • I like both versions. Even though they're related to the jonas brothers and miley and not much for the disney crap but this is cute. lol I just watched ponyo today and it was adorable. Another great masterpiece of Miyazaki! :3

  • i love this version it's techno!!

  • they had to put all the techno shit on becaue THEY ARE TOO SMALL TO HIT NOTES. surely should that tell disney that MAYBE they should take it as a cute song not to be "perfected" like the original?

    The Cyruses and Jonases make me annoyed

  • I have spent the past ten minutes, listening to the original on repeat.

    I listened to about ten seconds of this one, and couldn't do it anymore.

    I didn't come on here just to bash it either. I was actually curious to see what they did....they MURDERED IT! D:<

  • lmfao cool songs Im donload faforite songs :)

  • I like this as well as the other one. but it really really DOSN'T suit studio ghibil

  • OH

    MY

    GOD

    This version sucks ass....!!

  • Isn't there a version of this song in english without the electronic beat?

  • Hm. This is cute. But I don't really know if this is how this song was meant to be...it's a little too um...electronic. I personally think the original Japanese version was how it was meant to be.

  • eye love how disney these days has to ruin everything.

  • I Love The Film! Lol

  • this is frankie and noah they both sing pretty more frankie luv ya frankie!!!

  • YAY!!!!!!!!!

  • epic song...was destroyed.......by them....omg

    but the movie is awesome

  • While watching the actual movie, my little sister had this pleasant smile on her face throughout. When we heard this song together, she immediately looked at me and frowned. She said, "This doesn't fit." I knew what she meant. Even if she had liked the song (I do see how little techno-crazy kids may like it), it's so incongruous to the actual mood of the movie.

  • Japanese version is much better and why has it become techno

  • @midgiemarsh Because techno is awesome, I like both versions. BLEH

  • @uglydollsinc123 Yes and I wrote that comment over a year ago and to be honest I forgot I even wrote it

  • japanese version is better!!

  • Sorry but my ears are bleeding, I love Ponyo but this song, GAHHH. I thought the Japanese was cuter as said by the guy before me so I'll probably get thumbed down for expressing an opinion.

  • NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!

    The japanese version is so much cuter!

    It's not supposed to be this techno shit!

    Way to ruin it DISNEY! >:/

  • i love this movie

  • I really don't like this version, but I suppose it's cute enough for kids to enjoy. :T

  • What is up with the pop electro sound added? : / I dont like this over the original. No contest.... grrr

  • i saw the movie today it was good and got a a- grwat job frankie!!!!

  • i'm picking my nose but i like this XD

  • ohhhh! i love that movie!

  • i love this song its awesome but noah in another pic has a big forhead

  • I soo agree with Kukimao. People We all know the original was cute but you guys don't have to hate on disney or noah or frankie! The original was fantastic it made me warm and happy:) BUT she was right it is very catchy and makes you want to get up and dance when youh here it:))

  • I'd pay good cash to see the face he made if / when he heard this...

  • WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHHYYYY? The original was great.

  • It pisses me off too...its too pop for me. All I can do is struggle to hear the original buried inder all the crap. :(

  • there just kids wat do u want them to do sing a rap song and cuss

  • cool x this is adorable! i cant wait til it come out in the UK!!!!!! x

  • ...omg...this song sounds very....toooooo childish lol.

    i know its a kids maybe, but i mean, come on DX

  • Wow, i guess every culture deserves what it deserves.

  • this makes me so sad...

  • You wanna know what?

    I like BOTH versions, for different reasons

    I like the original because it's cute

    And I like this one because it's catchy, makes me wanna get up and dance

  • Exactly!

    Stop the hate! :c)

  • dis song iz so cutee!

  • i like it (:

    there only like 9 or 10 .leave em alone . they didnt choose which song to sing , their director did . so if you want to blam anyone , blam the director !

  • I doubt Miyazaki had a say in something like this.

  • xD. i'm so jealous that they got to meet him. little brats.

  • O_O Why. Why would you kill an amazingly adorable song with a bad remix that was composed by a master musician that no other man alive could hold a candle to? WHY? This is so horrible. A simple dub with english lyrics wouldn't suffice? Disney HAS done decent and beautiful dubs of Hisaishi songs but this is horrid. This is bad. The lyrics are cute, the rest is enough to make my ears bleed.

  • this movie was so adorable! i love it!

  • Hate it.

    It's catchy but they ruined the song. D<

  • I so want to see PONYO!!! Except tht isnt showing at my Carmike yet some reason or it played once and it dissappered! I really wanna watch it. AND OWN IT!!

  • IT'S SOOOO GOOD! Not the best by the director but pretty damn good! I saw it on the opening night where I live!

  • this is so awful

  • The effects are spost to sound like they are under water.

  • 2:14 should not have put that there

  • Well guys what do you except from Miley's little sister and a Jonas brother

  • they're only children for gods sake, grow up!

  • This is... odd. The first part, when you go and see it in the theaters, is WAY better. They made it sound way too... disney. I like disney, but not when they do this! It's completely overdone with radio editing. It's ok, sort of, but not as good as you expect.

  • this sucks i like the Japanese version better

  • wtf..is with... the autotune!

  • This is garbage.... disney just screwed up a ghibli release... Why were they aloud to change the music?

  • The Japnese is better, or so said, by default. I think they did OK. It's ubercute, just not, you know what you expect. I LURVE it. *nodnod*

  • go autotune! (/sarcasm)

  • cute:)love it!!

  • awesome =]

  • Comment removed

  • You're all moany faggots. This IS a kids song, just listen to the lyrics for gods sake.

  • THANK YOU..!!!

    i mean, I'm a big studio ghibli fan too, but i'd like to understand what they're saying too. I can't read japanese. Plus, it's disney

  • Your welcome, haha. Most of the people can't read japanese either but will say it's better than this version of the song because they're weeaboo's. :)

  • i think the japanese song is better because this is all rappy...the japanese song is more what you would expect from a kids' movie...or would be more appropriate.

  • right, and ppl gotta understand that it's disney. they're gonna make it more appealing for the little children

  • Why Would they Put Such A Horrible Song On An OK Looking Movie???

  • The classical version is at the end of the movie isn't autotuned.

  • i love this song

  • i love frankies vioce!

  • Miyazaki's regular songs for his movies are better.

  • they have really nice voices, even tho they do come from sisnging family families they're still really good :D!

  • whatever. it sounds like they were using autotone on a lot of the singing.

  • wow.... this is just horrible.

    /NERDRAGE, CRAI, ETC.

  • it was good in jap and eng. and the song is great

  • I SAW THE MOVIE AMAZING this song is NOTHING lyk the movie. if u hate this or love watch the movie its the best!!!!!! cause im love with all of his movies <3

  • this song is so lame, but its always stuck in my head :/

  • the voices are cute, and I think the translation is rather well done. but WHY did they have to add this terrible arrangement?! electrical sound just doesn't fit the concept of this move!!!

  • I believe they did the original too,because it was on the credits,but I can't seem to find it;;;

    The original one they sung was actually very cute.I have to agree though,this remix isn't the best.

  • ...Will.........WTF!?

  • People need to stop hating over stupid crap. Oh they translated a movie into english so it must be shit and Disney ruins everything. Grow up and be lucky that there is a english dub of this movie and that it was released in theatres. I saw the movie today and I loved it along with this song.

  • im fine with the song now, cause now ive seen the movie and they actually dont use this version for the movie, they have another version that is exactly like the japanese except of course different people and in english

  • ponyo!!! i loved this movie soo much b4 this movie i cud not pick a hyao myasaki movie to be my fav but i gotta say even tho hime mononoke and spirited away were great this was the best ^^ i mean who dosnt want to sail on a giant toy boat!? XD

  • noah is hot

  • she's like 9 -_-

  • she's like only 9!

  • I love this song sooooooo muchand today i am going to watch the movie

  • Jesus Christ. It sounds fine, both versions do. In fact, I actually perfer this one because that other one made me wanna sleep. I already seen this movie and the song fits Ponyo fine, shes really hyper and energetic like this song so I really can't see why you guys are crying.

  • I agree with you. The only reason they americanized it was so that Americans can watch it without having to read sub titles and so they don't feel lost in translation. Geez, it's not like it's bad, they do that all over the world with all movies so people in different countries can watch it in their own tongue and understand it. Japanese, English, whatever. It is a great movie and everyone of different languages should be able to see it and have fun watching it.

  • I gotta say, I personally prefer this song over the original. The movie is aimed for kids, and this version is just TOO CUTE. IMO, it's better than the original :/

  • And for the record, I am far from an Asiaphile or weeaboo. In fact, I can't stand most main-stream anime anymore. In Japanese or English. But this is a disrespect to Miyazaki and a disrespect to the Japanese culture. I'd be equally as mad if Japan did something to butcher a sacred Disney song.

  • wtf ?

    again, thx american, you ruin everything.

    (dragon ball)

  • again,

    FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFFFFFFF

  • If it's any consolation, the song at the end of the movie is NOT this. It's a straight dub of the original ending.

  • i don't give a crud what you other people think i love this song japanese or american i dont give a @$#%!!! XD

  • Okay, guys, seriously! Studio Ghibli is OWNED by Disney here in America, obviously they were going to choose a Cyrus and a Jonas, and it isn't totally ruined. Vote me down and curse me out in replies but complaining won't change anything! It isn't that bad!!!

  • i'm impressed..

  • I miss the good old Disney days of when they got people like James Woods to voice Hades. Now that, that was magic. This is faggotry of the highest and most shameful degree.

  • Why........why.....WHY. Disney raped Studio Ghibli hard with this one. Without lube. They're obviously re-marketing Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers too by having their little siblings voice the characters, and that's remarkably and disgustingly sad. Seriously. Disney is going off the deep if Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers is what it's all about.

  • Japanese moron!

  • it sounds bad because they have edited their voices to much

  • Its Japanese you silly DURP!

  • Japanese you ignorant fuck.

  • Atleast they sing instead they are brave little kids

  • oh god what is this I don't even

  • i like it alot, plus really little kids love this kids love songs fast and cute. im just glad disney is promoting this like it should be.

  • Okay, I will be honest. I really wanted to see this movie. Now that I have stumbled across this song I can already tell I'm going to hate the English dub with a passion. Sad because typicaly Ghibli films have the best dubbing EVER. Well sad.. ill stick around for the sub.

  • its cause american voice actors always over act and are never as good as japanese voice actors, not that they are voice actors lol

  • Wow not only is the song completely retarded, they also had to go and auto-tune the ever-loving-shit out of the already pathetic vocals.

  • Raging myself into a coma with this song...

  • why disney had to ruin this. ;_;

  • because they saw a chance to shove more child stars into instant fame, of course!

    modern disney would never pass up a chance like that

  • ớ_ờ

  • Simply appalling

  • PAWNYO PAWNYOO

  • This song makes me want to die, fucking seriously. WTF I wanted to see ponyo, but with this idk

  • They're soo cute!

  • I hate when people BAW about how Miyazaki's films don't do well in America and then refuse to see the movie because they dislike siblings of voice actors in the movie. You don't know if they're good until you see it.

    Stop being hypocritical.

  • Thank you. c:

  • Thank YOU. :]

  • "Oh, He is my favorite little boy." lol

    Ponyo is female.

  • I think they're talking about Sousuke.

  • The song is only about Ponyo, looking at the lyrics.

    (How did I know someone was going to reply to my comment saying that they aren't talking about Ponyo? lol)

  • I don't get why you said what you did in parenthesis.

    Noah is the one saying "Oh he's my favorite little boy". I think she's supposed to be Ponyo saying that.

  • When she's saying that, she saying is as Ponyo about Sosuke.

  • Oh, that's what I thought.

  • yes, noah speaks ponyo and frankie the boy that find ponyo :) so she said "Oh he´s my favorite little boy" :)

  • Why did they have to ruin this song with people who have no musical ability? Seriously, it sounds awful and seems disrespectful of the source material because of that. They turned this song into something that sounds exactly like everything else that disney calls "music" that they put out.

  • luv the song

  • The Japanese one sounds adoreable but I dont understand. I speak English Spanish and French I do know about 10 words in Japanese but I would most likley listen to the English one....or they could redo it in Spanish or French. :]

  • i prefer english idc if they did this and this is FLIKING CUTE ENOGUH FOR ME u guys are to picky fo rno reason at this moment

  • rage.jpg

  • 4Disneys

  • I like it, i think its cute and perfect for LITTLE KIDS. The moive is rated G its for little kids, I'm sure u flamers aren't 6 and under. Hell I'm taking the 4 yr old I babysit to see this and I'm actually very excited about it. Even though I HATE Hanna and Jonas Brothers, no reason to hate their little sibs. The younger audience this is directed to don't care and u flamers shouldn't either. Just sit back and watch the movie because it is a great way to remember the magic that is childhood.

  • You're missing the point of the anger. The original Ponyo had the essence of a good Studio Ghibli film and that alone sells on its own as shown with prior movies. It's not that we hate anyone related to Miley Cyrus or the Jonas Brothers, it's that they feel that they are exploiting the success of their siblings by using an unneeded soundtrack with them singing it. In turn, the charm of Ponyo is lost to cheap gimmicks. It's not that kids won't like it, they'll like it for the wrong reasons.

  • While that is a good point and something I admit, did not think about, I still feel that the movie would be enjoyable to watch and make an older audience remember the thought of nothing being impossible when they were children. I for one wish I had adventures like that when I was little lol. Anyway even after you told me that I still really wish to see it when it comes out because i love the mystical feel it has to it. But that's only my opinion you all can totally ignore it if you want.

  • Sounds like 4Kids got a hold of it.

  • lol thats just what i was thinkin reminded me of the one piece theme song lol cept now techno is the new rap

  • o___o oh mah gahd....what happened to the cuteness of the original version? *cries* what happened to disney?

  • they have lost sight of the difference between their movies and their tv channel, and now they've allowed them to merge in a horrible bloody murder of the original film and it's soundtrack.....and they were on a roll with the rest of the cast too, but they just HAD to throw a jonas and a cyrus in there....they've lost MY business, i'll buy the japanese dvds

  • i think its cute!! :)

  • i puked

  • I think I may be the only sane person to actually enjoy this song.

    Not something I'd listen to regularly, GOD no, but it has a little charm. I think people see that it's done by disney's little whores and assume it'll be bad.

  • I agree. :) Even though I like the Japanese version wayy better, I think this is pretty cute.

  • Horrible.

  • .........

    Wat.

    Failest thing since fail came to Failtown.

  • WTF is this shit? It sounds like ... shit.

  • just what we need, more stupid Jonas brother and bipolar redneck little miley cyrus sister.

    since when does Disney do anime?

    this is as bad as the Wolverine Anime.

  • There is no god...

  • Comment removed

  • FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

  • okay... this version is absolutely horrible O.O

    but seriously, is it just me or does frankie jonas sound exactly like hannah montana in this? xD

  • Hahaha you best be trolling

  • -10/200 faggot

  • i agree

  • WHY SO ELECTRONIC?! CAN'T SING SHIT.

  • Damn..

    THEY BUTCHERED THIS SONG

  • Would it kill them to just dub the original and not make some crappy OMG SO COOL TECHNO remix?

  • this song is plain easy.they just repeat the lyrics.

    BUT I THINK THAT FOAH (FRANKIE & NOAH) ARE ADORABLE!

  • hehe, i wanna watch this movie [:

    looks so cute !

  • i like both versions of it but i really like this on cuz i can sing with it :D
