The first song "Lonely Rolling Star" starts off with the girl promising to wait for the guy as the wanderlust in him pushes him away from her. She's scared yet optimistic, telling the guy to keep moving and never give up. The second song "Sayonara Rolling Star" the two decide to say goodbye with the girl saying "Our joined hands are little by little coming apart". Even so she still hasn't given up hope. Then finally, the story reaches its conclusion with "Lonely Rolling No More". The two finally live their lives together, and we finally hear the guy sing to show that he indeed came rolling back to her.
@@rubberbandba11craft If you think of it as the process of mourning, the original is denial plus some bargaining, the sequel is anger, bargaining, with depression at the end, and this is about depression becoming acceptance, regaining hope.
@@rubberbandba11craft something like it. The singer (Saki Kabata) lost a singer-songwriter friend (Shimizu Kazuhiko) to an accident in January that year, recorded Lonely Rolling Star a few months after it for the Katamari Damacy soundtrack, and didn’t have activities for the first part of that year (2004). It was written by Yoshihito Yano though (who’s still active too :> )
The comment section got re-enabled on the other video so I'm just sharing the translated lyrics here: 陽だまり サンサン _hidamari sansan_ *Bright sunshine* 再び晴れ模様 _futatabi haremoyou_ *Once again, it seems like clear skies* 色々あったけど _iroiro atta kedo_ *Though a lot of things happened* 僕たちは仲直り _bokutachi wa nakanaori_ *We have reconciled* 語らい、また重なり _katarai mata kasanari_ *Chatting, piling up again* 塊絡まり転がる _katamari karamari korogaru_ *In the rolling of this entangled katamari* あるでなんかハーモニー _aru de nanka HARMONY_ *There’s a certain harmony* だから一緒にいること絶対必然 _dakara issho ni iru koto zettai hitsuzen_ *That’s why being together is definitely fate* 私たち大切な未来を描く _watashitachi taisetsu na mirai wo egaku_ *We’re painting our precious future* 今度こそはずっと、そう、ここで _kondo koso wa zutto sou koko de_ *This time always, yes, right here* *You’ve got lovely rolling star* *I’ve got lovely rolling star* *We’ve got lovely rolling star* 前向きに一つよろしく _maemuki ni hitotsu yoroshiku_ *A cheerful “please take care of me”* 夕焼けはキラキラ _yuuyake wa kirakira_ *Sparkling sunset* 僕たちを照らしてる _bokutachi wo terashiteru_ *Reflects the two of us* 二つの影法師並んで歩いてる _futatsu no kageboushi narande aruiteru_ *Our silhouettes line up and start to walk* ここからは大切な二人の時間 _koko kara wa taisetsu na futari no jikan_ *From here on out is our precious time together* 夜が明けるまであなたのもとへ _yo ga akeru made anata no moto de_ *Until the morning, by your side* *You’ve got lovely rolling star* *I’ve got lovely rolling star* *We’ve got lovely rolling star* 前を向いて歩いて行こう _mae wo muite aruite ikou_ *Let’s look forward and start walking*
Damn, I legit just cried listening to this. I don't know if it's the sweet vocals or the smooth rhodes, but the beginning always gets me. It's such a great piece of music.
I can clearly hear the similarities (vocals) but they are both so fresh in unique ways (vibe,atmosphere). Props to the musicians behind this. I also hope for an happy ending where the couple dont divorce by personal reasons until death or something (as a result, keeping a warm feeling from the bystander's point of view which in this case is me)
Even better, it's the last song in a trilogy of connected Katamari songs that tells a story. The one before this is Sayonara Rolling Star. I'd really recommend looking up the translations if you don't know Japanese 👍
I think the reason why this is called Lonely Rolling No More is because I hear a man singing alongside the girl occasionally, all together it's a man and a woman singing together and I really like it :)
@@Protomage_199 Well no, what he's saying is the lyrics are about a love story across the three songs of a woman waiting for her love to return after he, struck by wanderlust, leaves on an adventure. The first is her being scared but sending him off and wishing well, the second is her feeling them grow apart but looking onward, and the final one, thus one, is them reuniting. At least that is what I've been told I don't speak much Japanese.
I got you- Hidamari-san, it's sunny again. There's something HARMONY, so being together is an absolute killer Kondo, who draws a heavy snowy future, is always here you got a nice rolling star i have a nice rolling star We've got Lovely Rolling star Yuuyake is twinkling and illuminating us It's like two shadows From here on, it'll be a heavy snowfall for the two of us Until the dawn breaks you have a nice rolling star i have a nice rolling star We've got Lovely Rolling star Let's face forward and walk you have a nice rolling star i have a nice rolling star We've got Lovely Rolling star Let's face forward and walk
Kind of makes me sad. I kind of find Katamari a little bit disturbing. Why? Well, you’re a small microscopic person rolling the Earth to the apocalypse as we know it by stick everyone to a giant sticky ball and turning them into planets! What the heck?!!
Imagine this; when a katamari is turned into a star, all of the people and objects on the katamari are magically replaced back onto Earth, returning to their daily lives. This might be why you can replay all of the levels with everyone still there.

Wasn’t the original written as a farewell to her recently deceased friend?

Great. Now I'm grooving AND crying.

A happy ending to Lonely Rolling Star?!
I swear this song didn't exist last week, it's some rainbow nonsense.

This song makes me feel like everything is going to be just fine.

Such a good song, melancholic yet hopeful.
2:15 - My favorite part
Same. Tonally pleasing.
BEST TRILOGY EVER
the lonely rolling star music trilogy is way too emotional for its own good
aw kinda wish they'd keep the original but this one slowly grew on me like my katamari
Good (ish) news: Katamari Rerolled for Switch!
I can't wait to see what songs they include.
@@TreeDragon I'm so glad they didn't remix the songs, it was nice just to play the original katamari game with improved graphics
@@solid477 Yeah, I think the lyrics are a bit different here.
sorry for being late, but I listened to both the original and this, and both have the same lyrics, but the pattern is different.
@@tatir7081 some of the lyrics are different
The Katamari ost is a treasure.
Ah yes listening to this calm and chill song while rolling through buildings and people and the world lmao i love it
I asked her out and she said yes 💖
freaking love this
LETS GO
I’m a little late the party, but hell yes ❤️❤️❤️
hell yeah man, good on ya :)
Hell yeah🎉

I love the sound of the Rhodes on this, so smooth yet punchy
This song is perfect
This makes me feel happy inside
아름다운 3연작.
BRO, THEY WANT KATAMARI FOREVER REROLL?
THAT WOULD JUST BE KATAMARI-SAN DEROLL!
This soundtrack is the best !!
Fuck I gotta get to Belgium fast
i love this song
Lonely rolling star.
It's like a slower version of lonely rolling star, it's great
Even better, it's the last song in a trilogy of connected Katamari songs that tells a story. The one before this is Sayonara Rolling Star. I'd really recommend looking up the translations if you don't know Japanese 👍
ena's spiritual grandfather
본 게임을 할때는 ost가 왜 이렇게 우울한것인가? Katamari의 분위기와 맞지 않다 라고 생각했으나 가장 잘 어울리는 ost였습니다.
Depressing Emotional
im gona cry

Kondo, who draws a heavy snowy future, is always here

I feel so lonely
It is unfortunately normal to feel this way however no one is truly as alone as they feel, its a big planet with billions of people out there.
Yum
Why did they decided to stop this serie of game ??!! :'(
The creator of the franchise wants the damacy remaster but namco doesn't like Katamari as a thing too much.
see: nintendo direct :)
