@Spartan117A1 Oh, there is actually a medium version and a long version as well as the short version. The medium version is around five minutes, and the long version is around ten minutes.
@Esty2326 Well, unfortunately I don't know Japanese, but according to the [sarcasm] venerable experts on Yahoo! Answers, [/sarcasm] the title means "Song of a puppet - die holding animosity." And that title makes sense with the movie.
@Koseiku Yes, there is a version on the soundtrack that includes a longer segment with bells in the middle. It plays during the parade in the movie. I prefer the more concise version, though.
This song is great. When I listen to this song, I imagined myself at Tokyo sitting on the balcony looking at the beautiful nightlife while listening to this song
Ghost in the shell 1 and 2 are the best movies i ever saw, then Akira, Samurai X...
i just love anime dude !! GITS IS THE BEST and Batou is my fafourite character ever

Even if machines learn to feel, that doesn't then classify them as human. They would still get pretty much the same rights of course.

@Kiyoko504 It's a main character's dog + the idea that organics are "but" complex machines.

Although the moon doesn't shine every one night,
but Nue sings every night sadly.
Even if I look back the past,
The flowers burn off
As if the heart of consolation already disappeared
In this new world Gods are gathered
day broke, Nue sing
The Sakura flowers pray to gods
Although the situation in this life are tragic,
cannot give up a dream die holding animosity.

Even the moon would not shine every day, every night Scaly thrushes cry on the sadness
I turned and looked back, but the flower lookeds like they’d fallen out As if the feeling of solacement has faded away
Gods gathers forward the next world And day breaks, and scaly thrushes cry
A blossom has desire to satisfy and pray to God earnestly
"I should grieve over myself at this-time life,
The dream has gone Left my grudge and gone..."

Isn't there a song that is very similar to that one? Could be a remix or a sped up version. I heard that only once a long time ago and it was epic.
