[MountainGoatTipTail]

I really like this movie :D AND the music :D:D

[AleaBubbles1]

This reminds me of the legend of Zelda theme song a little.

[1991pengguangyi]

好听！

[AKOjeremy226655]

i love hiyao miyazaki.

[whumz]

@AKOjeremy226655 umm... its hayao miyazaki

[KrissKrossStreetball]

[SephronTheAwesome]

I liked the vid, subscribed, and added it to my favorites. but it's not enough so i bookmarked it. this is fantastic. fucking nostalgia! imma find my DVD immediately!

[xXTotoroTotoroXx]

Hey Guys,

first of all, my english isn't very good :D (I'm from germany - yippeeyayeeh). I love this song and I play the harp, too. But my problem is that I don't find notes that fit exactly to this version of the song. Are they available anywhere?? (If not I think I have to do it with the notes from the internet). I hope someone knows ;)

[Timbrown092190]

I WANA TAKE MY WIFE TO A FOREIGN RESTAURANT AND HAVE THIS SONG PLAYIG IN THE BACKGROUND WHILE I HOLD HER HANDS AND TELL HER..."I love you"

[Ryuurin3435]

I love this song, it's so peaceful and has a beautiful tone to it. It's my favourite soundtrack in the movie, next to the Catbus's theme. :)

I shall attempt to play this on my harp! :>

Oh, and the glissandos are a nice touch. :)

[sukichan1]

I think I heard this song when I was really young, and I'm so happy heard it again today. I love it so much! I'm pretty sure I've never seen Totoro before, so it was really a surprise when I put it on and heard this. Has this been in any other Japanese Movie/ Series?

[yoka955]

My love for Japan...began with this movie.

[yotsubafanfan]

I saw this movie for the first time 3 years ago, I was 13 and I just got into studio Ghibli because I heard they specialize in beautiful anime movies, my sister knew I ws getting interested so she showed me a picture book from this movie at a book store in a near by town. The second I got home despite it being 11:00 I looked it up and that night I watched the whole movie when it was still on youtube and fell in love.

[yotsubafanfan]

@yotsubafanfan Continuing: I was obsessed with Totoro through out my Middle School years and my art teacher who I helped out with when she had art clubs bought me and my twin sister a Totoro hat for our birthdays and as a thank you present ( I was graduating that year too so it was also a good bye present) Now that I am in high school I still love Totoro ( In fact it's my favorite movie) and I still have that hat. And why did I first see this at such an old age? Well let's just say my family

[yotsubafanfan]

@yotsubafanfan doesn't and probably will never support the fact that I am an anime fanatic ( yet they encourage me to read by buying me manga) but I will be different. This is going to be my future childs first movie and their nursery.

[Sashumii]

can you send me this song, please?

[Sashumii]

can you please send me this song?

[Wakichen354]

Man, I remember watching this for the first time when I was 7...

[ashkii87]

@Wakichen354 ME TOO!!! XD It was my first anime. ever since then i've always loved Japanese anime. Totoro is the best in my book. :D

[asianemokid100]

I adore this song since I was This HIGH! *puts hands to waist* And I Totally find it funny and cute the picture I see lol! My kids Adore Totoro! :3

[richboy818]

Aaaw thanx so much for your message! I will defo go see Toy Story 3. Last nite I watched 'Spirited Away' and 'Kiki's Delivery Service and watched Totoro again! This music still makes my eyes tear up but good tears. My friend is in Tokyo at the moment so if she doesn't buy me the dolls I will buy one a week as a treat. I really want the Cat Bus!!! xxLnKxx

[LucasJayLikesgaming]

@richboy818 I saw totoro in toy story 3 and i screamed, "ITS TOTORO!!!"

[LegitRainbowUnicorns]

First movie I ever watched,

I watched it in Japanese..when I was fluent in it,

My grandparents and I used to sing the beginning and ending songs together. ^_^

[meninthedark1981]

i love this song.forever.

[richboy818]

I'm a 44 old year man who rented it for the first time 4 weeks ago then went and bought the DVD. I love it. I'm gonna get the 3 Totoro figures and the soot sprites from Playlounge in London! Like I said before this my favourite piece of music from the film. I find it all very moving even at my age. BTW I'm also a hard core Hello Kitty fan too. Thank you so much for your time and effort on this post

xxLnKxx p.s. my favourite is the little white one!

[aoiumi00]

haha...I love the little white Totoro,too!

Have you already seen?

Totoro appear on the "Toy Story 3 " just a little.

I think it is a present from Pixar for the viewer in Japan.

The movie is coming up to the release.

I'm looking forward to it.

and I'm not a hard-core fan but I love "Hello Kitty" too.

For me, Hello Kitty is a familiar character from childhood.

Thank you for your comment!!! :D:D

[DJRedfield]

@aoiumi00 Lol, yeah i noticed Totoro in Toy Story and everyone was saiyn "Who?" Very good film... I'm going to have to buy it again. I miss it. Thank you for the music!

[Johnlindsey289]

@DJRedfield

Not only Totoro was in TS 3 but spoofed on South Park and referenced in James Cameron's Avatar with that similar giant tree, Cameron is a huge fan of animation movies and anime and used some Ghibli elements

[RandomLeanne]

@aoiumi00 i flipped out when i saw the totoro doll in toy story 3. we watched it in school and i started yelling. xD

i love hello kitty and i have so many hello kitty things. :D

[chirinFinity]

@richboy818 He's my second favorite! He's called Tosmall, a small Totoro. My favorite is Toedium. The medium Totoro. Then theres Totoro!!!

[richboy818]

thank you thank you thank you! this track is what i was looking for!

My eyes fill up with tears coz it's so moving :) not sad tears tho!

[hopelessromantic7182]

when i first watched this movie i was 6 we went to the movie theature and seen it i'm 25 now and listening to this brings back alot of memories i wanna watch it again i love the music .

[bananian]

[xpeachy123x]

This is so beautiful..! -Tear-

[mushroomfiesta]

Beautiful song. Beautiful movie. I never got to watch the movie growing up (I was 14 the first time I saw it) but love Totoro so much. Thank you so much for the upload!! :D

[xpeachy123x]

@mushroomfiesta Yes, a beautiful movie indeed. One of my most cherished childhood movies.

[ireat]

[ilpostodellefragole7]

Dolce...

[Dracapalley]

Back for more. Love it!

[oOHelloKitaOo]

this is lovely. you should that when im sad i come to this video and it gets me in this really happy and relaxy mood. thank you!

[Dracapalley]

Does anyone know where I can find the original used in the film? All I can find is one with vocals, but I really want the same version as the film. Does anyone know where I can find it please? Thanks

[HowlingMonki]

I just looked over at the related videos for this one and I saw the Path of Wind Orchestra version there, so hopefully it will be there for you if you look there too. :) If not, just type in Path of Wind and you should find it. :3

[Dracapalley]

Thanks but I've listened to them all and they're not the same as the film. There used to be one on here but it's been removed by Youtube. I guess that was the one and only official one because it was removed. Such a shame, can't even get this on CD as soundtrack! :0(

[aboy895]

she's good. i can relax or go  to sleep off of this real easy.

[westcoastg81]

When I hear this version of this song I imagine angels playing this in heaven...

[GaaraXFan2RuLeALL]

This is so pretty, it's great to wind down with this playing

Thanks for uploading =3

[xs89jacked]

this sounds SO BEAUTIFUL.

[Dracapalley]

This is just exquisite. I wish I had the music score for this to learn on guitar. Thanks so much for uploading.

[aoiumi00]

@Dracapalley

Thank you for your comment !

Now I saw your channel. Your performance is very gooood !!

Please up-load the video if you got this music's score :D:D

[Dracapalley]

Thank you very much! I did find the guitar score for this but it doesn't translate anywhere near as good as the harp version. This is special.

[Grieverinoa]

I love harps and admire harpists a great deal. The sound is simply angelic, clear, gentle and touching.

[Alexansu11]

it was 12 year when i seen this in Jap and Eng. Beautiful song it just make me want to cry.

[Juggernaughty824]

The last time I watched this movie was like... 5 years ago... and then just yesterday while I was listening to Joe Hisaishi's The Wind Forest from his Piano Stories album... I get like... wow... it really brings back lots of childhood memory, from when I first watched the film...

[aoiumi00]

Thank you for comment !

There are a lot of people who recall childhood by this movie.

I am also the same. :D

[kelvin254kk]

me 2 , i saw over 100 coments in youtube that said this movie can recall they childhood!!!!

i am the one of them!!!

[PuccaPucca500]

omg SAME i watch this when i was young to b honest idk it will ever get old cause is such a great classic

n i think the author came out with a new movie too ^_^

[Juggernaughty824]

Lovely...

[IsoTopiHauis]

Where do you even find all the new versions to the Ghibli songs that you upload? They sound really original and I really like most of them. :) Even though my all-time favourite is still the 'Kiki's Delivery Service Rap Remix' by a different user. xD

[aoiumi00]

Yes, I know it too! That is very exciting!

My fav is "totorock" by a different user. Please search and watch it !

BTW, I always look for the Ghibli music of various versions on Amazon and the online music site in Japan.

And there is find at the animation sites in Japan other than Youtube once in a while.

If I find other Ghibli's cover-music or arrangement-music, I'd like to introduce it to everyone with my channel !

Thanks for the comment!

[pokemon00845]

i agree with invusion

thad be sweet :)

[DarkCat4]

so far, this is the best version of the song i've heard. and i've listened to a whole lot of them. thanks for making this :) do u have an mp3 file for it? i want to get it for my i-pod. its ok if you dont though.

[aoiumi00]

Thank you for the comment!! :D

Sorry, I do not distribute mp3 file by e-mail.

But I received a few the same inquiries to my Youtube's personal-mail until now.

So I posted information on this music in a right information box today.

Please see it and try to download from that site.

[invusion]

Totoro is the best =( and its sad i wish the whole place was real and the people

[Ronk89]

[yasu10121]

上松美香さんのアルパは何か癒されるな

最近コンサートやらないからなぁ聴きたい

です僕はアニパとラ・ビギーナを持っています

でも久しぶりに上松美香のユーチューブの動画見ました。前より動­画増えてますねうれしいです。ちょっと残念なのが再生回数が少な­いけどこれからも見ます

[aoiumi00]

アニパ、いいですよね！ジブリの曲が５曲も入ってるので迷いまし­たが、トトロを選んで正解だったかな？

外国の方にもっと彼女を知ってほしくてアップしましたが、いつ削­除されちゃうかと思うと、も～ドキドキハラハラなんです。どうか­削除されませんように。

コメント、どうもありがとうございました！

[AlchemistOfHistory]

Such a strong tone for such a delicate instrument. Nice!

[MrMA4649]

上松美香さん、済んだ音色で繊細ですね

トトロにぴったし・・・

[aoiumi00]

コメントありがとうございます。

私もそう思います！

[AlaskaCola]

My Neighbor Totoro is a beautiful anime

[kat5670]

There would be Yo Gabba Gabba Adventures of My Neighbor Totoro Trailer comming up!

[parcourkid]

my neighbour totoro - first ever animated movie i ever watched still its my favourate movie of all time i remember when i was 3 i watched it in japanese (becuase my uncle got thew tape from japan) i had no idea what they were saying but i still loved it!!!

[aoiumi00]

Studio Ghibli's work that can be able to amuse the child only by the image is wonderful.

However, you who saw animated features at the age of three are also wonderful !

[parcourkid]

yeah, ghibli's work is truly amazing, after a while my uncle went to hong kong(my families origin) and bought a copy of totoro in cantonese! i was so happy at the time for once i could watch it and understand what they were saying, last week for the first time i watched this movie in english!!! wow it was kinda... wierd actually

[aoiumi00]

kinda wierd ? Oh, is that so? :D :D

Well...I envy you ｂecause you understand English and Cantonese.

The dictionary and translate site is indispensable to me of today. I'd like to study English more.

Thank you for the comment , parcourkid.:D

I'm very glad !

[parcourkid]

:) well it experience was wierd/interesting a mixture of the two either way i enjoyed it!!

[aoiumi00]

;) I see !! ;)

[StolenW]

Same here! The first time I watched the film way back when, I didn't understand a thing they said 'cause it was in Japanese or maybe I was too little to read subtitles fast. Anyhow, I loved it sooo much. I was so happy to get a dvd copy.

[parcourkid]

hehe well now it was a few weeks ago i got totoro unfortunatly my 3 year old sister found the disk and well destroyed it!!! she didnt mean to she loves ghibli animations oh well just get myself antoher copy

[aoiumi00]

[ch5694]

[StolenW]

[hmrdulcimer]

I'm 55 and just saw Totoro. I have fallen completely in love with the movie and the music. Thank you so much for posting this version on the arpa. I relax and let the troubles of the day fall away when I listen. Very kind of you to post this.

[aoiumi00]

Thank you for the comment.

I'm glad you like this version of the arpa.

Above all, I'm very pleased if any consolation to you.

[blooskies]

never too late to discover the magic of Miyazaki. I recommend that you check out his other works. All of his movies are amazing and have beautiful soundtracks.

[aoiumi00]

Of course, I know.　They are truely wonderful music...!

My upload video (Studio Ghibli series) is chiefly the cover version and the arrangement version of the Studio Ghibli's film music. Because a lot of people have already been uploaded of the studio Ghibli's film music to Youtube.

So, I would like to introduce the cover music and the arrangement music to everyone.

Please enjoy with a different of the Ghibli music !

Thank you for the comment ! (^▽^)丿

[yuri1ishtar]

if anyone has watched the dvd and notced the path of wind music on the dvd menu they would notice that theirs a version of this song which has a sort of metalic soud every 10 secounds. I really want to hear that version without renting the dvd.

[aoiumi00]

Thank you yuri1ishtar !

[dawlz]

thx for uploading ^^ i used to leave the movie on in the chapter select screen just to listen to this song XD

[Onlyne]

where do you get this song? from Mika Agematsu album or My neighbor totoro soundtrack '.'

by the way, I watched a video Mika performing Umi no mieru machi from Kiki's delivery service, too bad it's deleted T_T it's awesome too x)

[aoiumi00]

Thank you for the comment !

This music is packed to Mika Agematsu's "ANIPA" album.

This album is only the cover of animation songs is collected to 12 songs.

Oh,really?　Well... this video also may be deleted soon . （ｉｏｉ）

By the way, do you know？Mika is a very lovely woman !!!

[sugoiking]

really?! why T___T

please dont delete it

[aoiumi00]

Thank you.

Recently, the restriction concerning the copyright is severe.

I do not want to delete this video, too~.

[InsaneCabbit92]

I think it's 'arpa' in Japan and 'alpa' in other places. Because the Japanese language has no 'L'.

[aoiumi00]

That's right, the Japanese language has no 'L'

But 'alpa' is nearer than 'arpa' when pronouncing in Japanese.

So, I was misspelling a part of descriptive text.

Correct spell is 'arpa', not 'alpa'. I corrected it .

Thank you so much for teaching me ! :)

[InsaneCabbit92]

Do itashi mashite.

[flipper1136]

What a beautiful melody. It brings all the childhood memory come back to me. I watched this movie when I was eleven. Now at 25 I am still watching this. Thanks for uploading.

[aoiumi00]

I get it !!!

This movie have a nostalgic air.

And this music is bring back to memory of the childhood to me too.

So, I still love Totoro... and watching many times repeatedly.

Thank you for comment. I'm very glad!

[1auhsoj1]

i really love this movie, and laso other ghibli movies... nice vid.....

[AbbyL0212]
