  • nice-y

  • just started playing this game, at first i was like "what the hell?" but now i'm loving it and it's cool music! this is my favorite of the songs, i love the lyrics.

  • At the way end of the video, everyone should get rolled up into a giant ball and get launched into space by the King of all Cosmos.

    Just saying

  • Any time I get depressed, or sad, I play this wonderful and innocent game and instantly feel a little better :)

  • I got a sudden shock when i realized this song is in English...whoa

  • Why does it have to eeeend? D:

  • The King: we see it now...these annotations sure are bright, so we decided to turning them into a nice star, shall we?

  • THESE ANNOTATIONS ARE NOW DIAMONDS.

  • namco alwasy knows what they are doing

  • It always sounds like he says "DEATH TO YOUUUUUuUUuUuUuuUuUU" at the end of the song xD And I always look up the lyrics to find out what he really says.... and I always forget..... I think it's funnier if I imagine him saying "Death to you" though, so I don't really care ^o^.

  • ...This isn't a thing like what I was looking for. XD

  • Must... Draw.... Annotations..... O.o

  • I remember that after I first got this game and played it a while, I went out on a trip and I found myself looking out of the car window and imagining things being rolled up and thinking about what all you'd have to pick up to get the next thing.

  • I Here you colon me!

  • @vloin Agreed, since them being alive means we're all gonna die! Wouldn't really trust The King of All Cosmos with the life of the universe. xD

  • I don't know about anyone else, but if the Prince suddenly sang this to me, I would be mutually creeped out.

  • @scarletgrl if the prince king of cosmos or his wife accualy existed i would freak out i mean poop my pants freak

  • Awww what a calm, sweet, catchy love song -3 love this OST

  • Yes to yooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuu

  • Adore the annotations by the way :)

  • @NC45100 and the man struggles to free himself. Desperately dragging himself through layers of sofas, books, cows and the other unfortunate people whom were rolled up into this cruel ball of fate,all of them screaming in fear and confusion. Finally he reaches the surface, he pokes out his head and looks down. Dis-pair as he watched as the earth grow smaller and smaller. looking up. nothing but the vast vacuum of space. Suddenly, a great light. an explosion. silence.... what a cute story!

  • You have an amazing imagery. The annotations you described were so vivid, I almost felt as if I were there with the elevator man. You should be a writer.

  • @NC45100

    i see what you did there

    very clever

  • Oh man. . .I haven't checked the comments on this in a long time. I'm glad my original comment has created such a large creation of new ideas on how the song should be played out. :D

  • I love this song, it is so chill.

  • Katamari (both) were the greatest two games ever! On the second one though, I didn't like the one where you needed to get only hot things. I don't know hot and cold japanese foods!

  • they should hire tony bennet to record this

  • ...and then the entire rest of the video is the camera following around Charlie Kosei, still singing attached to the Katamari, and panoramic shots of the Katamari rolling over cities. In the end, it ramps over a mountain and drifts into space. THE REAL END.

  • But sir, it wasn't the end. A gigantic flamboyant male comes in, picks up the ball containing everyone and everything and throws it up into the air so it becomes a single star in the sky.

  • You sir, are a genius!

  • his annotations should be made into a video! if people are down we could film it

  • @lethalidealsdc This is a wonderful idea, but I don't think there are many people who would like to film a video just for no reason.

  • @RusekuXxX

    I would!!!!! :) long live the arts!!

  • @RusekuXxX I think you underestimate the internets, sire

  • @RusekuXxX i would!

  • @lethalidealsdc This is a wonderful idea, but I don't think there are many people who would like to film a video just for no reason.

  • @RusekuXxX

    You might be surprised.

    Though the budget would have to be IMMENSE

  • @RusekuXxX I'm all for doing random shit for no reason (so long as I don't have to travel too far to do it (unless it involves some odd form of transportation (like a supercharged segway with a boom box and hydraulics))).

  • @RusekuXxX : There are LOTS of people who would film a video for no reason. ;D XDD

  • @RusekuXxX Film students with assignments.

  • @RusekuXxX There is ONE person who is going to make those annotations into a video! Look for it in a month. (ill post a link when done <3)

  • @PENGUINLOLARMY I love you.

    I love you so much.

  • @PENGUINLOLARMY In your venture you can be assured that a good portion of those who visit this video with unhealthy frequency will be waiting patiently--with one hand cupped under chin and one eyebrow raised in inquisitive speculation. It is the least we can offer as unofficial citizens of this video's comment section.

  • haha i love the lyrics 

  • i wish i had a katamari so i could say at things "im gonna wad you up into my life!"

  • the annotations are pure gold. thank you internet

  • wad

  • You have a big imagination. xD -Lol'd IRL-

  • Comment removed

  • its amazing how in 2 years the annotation have grown from elevator and a guy with maracas

  • @lightspeedasH Y'know, it really is amazing. And I regret nothing.

  • badabada

  • at first i thought of nintendogs,i dunno i think this song shoulda been on nintendogs lol

  • @indianbellydancer1 I think this song should be in EVERY GAME EVER.

  • You my dear uploader... have a lovely imagination.....

  • @orwellianson Sir I did not write a single piece of this, it's all from the comments.

  • @RusekuXxX It was marvelous regardless.....

  • @RusekuXxX Hahahaha God damn hilarius xD

  • THIS IS THE BEST SONG IN THE WORLD.

  • When I was in singapore I sware to you that this exact thing practicly happend just without the big rolling ball

  • Does this not remind you of ben and jerry's? the two cows?

  • Excellent drummer. Great feel. Love the vibe's. Needs a ripping solo. A little de-construction approach.

  • This song is sung by BRUCE FUCKING CAMPBELL........actually it's not, but now you can't listen to this song without picturing Bruce Campbell singing it. You're welcome.

  • Cool story bro

  • Ahaha that story owns, it's perfect. Nice.

  • WTF!?! That was it? I know I had a few more ideas for it and so did others. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

  • @Jerrid3 I have to apologize for the abrupt ending, even though I said i'd continue. That comment just popped up and it was perfect.

  • @RusekuXxX

    Can we have a do over then from the very last post? There were many people who wanted to get in on it. I had expected the story to last to the very end of the song.

  • @Jerrid3 I'm gonna be honest, I don't have the time nor the patience to continue it. But how about you find an mp3 of the song, post it as a response, and take it from there?

  • @RusekuXxX

    That is understandable and that is what I had figured since you seemed so enthusiastic at the beginning and then just stopped abruptly. I will try to find the actual CD myself. I was contemplating this myself, but I did not want to step on your toes since it was you that started it and it was going so well for a while. A shame it could not last. A good effort though, the story was really coming along.

  • very nice and descriptive story to go along with this video! lol

  • This reminds me of Zombocom.

  • Seriously... Somebody needs to get MGM to make this for real. This is the best music video concept ever.

  • i could totally see the king of all cosmos singing this song!!!!!

  • The guy singing, sounds a lot like Richard Cheese...

  • Charlie Kosei(Corsey) is a famous singer of the Lupin III anime series in Japan.

    Maybe he is about 60 years old.

  • ...and then God said, " WTF, a ball with magnets?! Who came up with this?! Oh well, Begone stupid planet!" And all is well in the kingdom of man.

    - NeilPatrickHarris 14:7

  • Best. Elevator. Ever.

  • @NC45100 And that's it, folks!

  • I want to roll a ball around campus and scream "I'm gonna wad you up into my life!" at people as I roll into them.

  • XDDD ROFLMAO all these comments are just win

    everyone who contributed to the lil story....you all win

    The internet

  • By the way... what is the chorus singing? Dubawasha? I know that is not it, but I am not catching what it is. Anyone know? Or are they not singing any thing and just making a noise to match the music?

  • @Jerrid3 most likely scatting for just the music. i'm not sure any definite lyrics COULD match the chorus xD

  • I am so glad I came back to this video, there used to only be the blue commentary! ROFL!

  • @CarrotAndKatamari

    Hahahaha! Yea it looks like it is going at a rather slow pace, but still going... if we use what The1 just did or parts of it I can go off of that, but I think we would still need more input than just two people taking turns... I think what worked so good the first few times was it just came out naturally, now we are just trying to push it along which takes away from it unfortunately.

  • I can really see your Film clip vision Ruseku!

  • Aaaaaand that's where I'm stuck...

  • And as they walk down the beach, with the guy still being sung to, they come to a cruise ship docked at the beach and they get on, with Charlie leading the way. On the boat, some butlers escort the guy to a changing room, where, (behind a dressing screen), he gets fully clothed in vacation style clothes, with Charlie dramatically singing just outside the door as the guy comes back out. It's been getting dark and the butlers are lighting tiki torches and turning on stringed up rainbow lights.

  • @The1truesushiboy

    Continuing the story...

    The guy goes up to the bow of the ship and looks out onto the ocean. Then, the boat stops by a peninsula with a classic looking lighthouse on it. Charlie is up there singing (with backup dancers all around) and instead of a lamp, in the middle of the lighthouse is a huge disco ball. As the song nears the end, suddenly dolphins start to leap over the boat, jets of water are sprayed from the sides of the lighthouse, (running out of space to write...)

  • @ropesnake

    (part two) ...and the entire scene is lit by fabulous fireworks going off behind the lighthouse, where in the sky you can see all the many shining stars. As the song finishes, we just see the night sky, when there is a sudden ding sound.

    ...the elevator doors from the beginning open, and the guy, back in his business suit, steps out of the elevator with a smile on his face.

    Somebody needs to make this. It would be amazing XD

  • @ropesnake

    ... That is perfect!

  • @ropesnake I'm about to buy Adobe cs5. I guess I might animate it.

  • I shall continue... After all, I'm the one who initially added on to the first bit, so I'll try to get the ball rolling again ;D... And listening to it, here's what popped into my head:

    As all the girls are doing their wave dancing, Charlie steps down and walks toward the guy, still singing and motions for him to follow. They walk down the long beach with a few of the girls taking off his business jacket, replacing it with a Hawaiian shirt and give him sunglasses and a drink, as they leave.

  • ...... and then, out of the ocean, comes a guy wear a straw boater hat and a hawaiian shirt and shirt and starts the steel drum solo....... hopefully you guys like the idea :D

  • I just read all these comments adding to the story... MAN we are so messed up. xD No wonder we love Katamari. <3

  • This will be my wedding song.

  • i watched a random bb360 vid and it had this song lolz i wuz liek NO WAIIII

  • ...and then girls come from the hole in cocktail dresses, colorful red and purple tones and they are intertwining between the band and waving their arms in the air depending on the direction they are moving making it appear like a human ocean and they pass the guy on the couch...

    But this is one of my favorite songs on Katamari, maybe because it is in English or because it has that old Frank Sinatra flair to it. But what is the last song at the credits where you roll up the world?

  • @Jerrid3 And another one. Make the next one the last one, people!

  • @RusekuXxX

    If no one does one in about a week I will do another, whether you use it or not is up to you. However, you could make the story last longer and this is just the beginning of the story... make the story last all the way to the end of the song. Of course you can use your discretion on how long each story or bits of story stay up to be read and then go away to give room for other parts, but you could make it stretch as long as people kept giving you in put.

  • @Jerrid3 True...

    Alright. I'll continue it then.

  • @RusekuXxX Alright, I've done some more... This'd make a great music video... I'd totally buy it on a DVD! XD

  • @RusekuXxX

    A couple of people have already typed stories to continue this. I am curious to know where to start my story from now since nothing has been updated.

  • ...and then as the guy is lounging, the fountain in front of him stops spouting water and slides backwards, revealing an open hole. From the huge hole rises a tropical stage with Charlie Kosei (the singer) and his island jam band put on an amazing performance for the guy....

  • @jingojango85 You guys are seriously my favorite people. Like really.

  • ...And then a giant katamari comes and takes the whole place. But it's alright, because the music was awesome. :D

  • ...One of the backup dancers place him in a lounge and begins to massage his shoulders. Another one brings him an ice cold lemon tea and top of the notch grapes to eat while he bobs his head to the music...

  • Comment removed

  • @supermax110 dumb

  • @martys1916 The only person there is one of the greatest Lounge Singers ever.

  • X'D Love the added on comments.

  • and then I ask myself "english lyrics?"

  • @Twilight14Vampire hell yeah.

  • ...... And then sharks fly to the tiki huts and become bartenders. The platypuses come out of hiding to ballroom dance with other dancers. They even take off their business-like suits and ties.....

  • this game is a true example of video games as an art form.

  • then the elevator turns into a classy jazz night club...yea

  • I absoluetely love the Katamari Games...

  • lol show up to someones wedding and play this

  • Kind of reminds me of Richard Cheese

  • i could picture a businessman in manhattan listening to this at some bistro on a rainy day dreaming of his company rolling over smaller ones and growing in the process

  • ...... And then the elevator door opens up just as he begins singing the main part and it's a tropical beach resort with a tiki bar and backup dancers......

  • @The1truesushiboy I like this one too.

    Continue the story, people.

  • I could see the Trololo guy singing this.

  • My favorite song in the game. :-)

  • i want to be stuck in an elevator for like hours with this song! I love it so much xD

  • I play Katamari Damacy baked and its a trippy ass game!

    That's one of the reasons why I like it so damn much.

  • @makumasen Took me a bit to realize it was "lump up", and not "lop up". Makes a lot more sense, now.

  • Sounds like Richard Cheese.

  • rofl omg I read that caption and saw the whole thing in my head...maybe I can convince my film major friend to make that video and post it on youtube for you hehe...

  • My favorite song in the entire Katamari series.

  • this and katamari on the funk.

  • This is the first annotation that I've enjoyed reading.

  • I would ride the elevator up and down just for this song :D I'd scare passengers with my nerdy dancing XD

    Elevators in Florida don't play music though....D:

  • LMAO @ annotation

    I totally want that to happen to me. :P

  • Greatest song ever...

  • Oo the name of the track is in spanish

  • nop is spanish :) i know because i'm from spain

  • I thought it was some English man singing in a late-night karaoke restruant.

  • I always thought of this song playing in a nice casino.

  • Is it just me, or does it kinda sound like Richard Cheese singing this? I know it's not him, but the voices certainly sound similar!

  • It's Charlie Kosei.

  • I am playing this at my wedding haha...

    no seriously...

    its kick ass

  • hey wow, that's a damn good idea...fits nicely too.

  • that is an amazing idea-

    next family wedding im bringing this on a drive for the DJ

  • @TheMisskimono

    Me too!

    Don't you love it when us dorks get married? haha

  • @TheMisskimono thats exactly what i was going to do :D

  • @TheMisskimono I'm playing it at my funeral.

  • @Qber4life Then people will be dancing on your grave. And forget about you at the moment

    XD

  • That description in the corner at first seemed impossible, but the more I think about it, the more it seems to make sense
