If you do not know what the song is about, it is about the drug Krokodil (commonly known by it's effects of breaking up your skin until it's feels leathery like Crocodile Skin). People who take this drug hardly live past 2 years of using these drugs, comparative to others which can take over a decade. This song is about two halves of taking drugs. One side describes how good it feels to be intoxicated and filled with joy from these drugs. The other side explains how it wants the side effects to end. The skin to stop breaking down. It's rather sad.
wow
@@grayhadeswolf They didn't even get into the worst of it- it eats the tissue away from the inside out. Long term users (if they live that long) bones will be seen. Some you can see through their arm/leg the bone completely visible from all sides. Entire limbs become completely useless. If they do recovery from it, the muscle doesn't come back because it's completely gone in some places.
Some people use gasoline, paint thinner, cigarette ashes (to balance the pH.) They found that eye drops heightens the effects. The eye drops dries them out severally. Causing major damage to the heart, liver and other body organs. Most only live about 2 years.
It only takes about 5 minutes to feel it and it last on average about 2 hours, this depends on how strong it is. Because of this they inject themselves more frequent than other drugs, putting more toxins in their body.
Most of the people who do this drug are ex heroin addicts. When they get to poor, or the drug prices spike up they turn to this awful drug. It's cheaper and easy to make. It only takes about 45 minutes to an hour to finish a batch. Which, compared to most other drugs is quick. It's high is also stronger. Which to them, is a added benefit.
At that point most of them live for the next high, that's all. They have completely given up. It's sad honestly, because they know what it does. They don't care, they have given up on everything. Completely and utterly in love with this drug. While hating it at the same time.
Sorry about the length.
fuck...that’s just harsh...wish people would actually help drug addicts instead of shoving them into a corner to rot...
Creepy °^°
Dude I felt that when you said i dont care
Oh Christ, there's me thinking this was going to be about some crocodile girl, but nope! It's about Gumi getting high as a kite and being eaten alive by a Russian flesh eating fuck up drug!... Thanks vocaloid. Thank you.
from the minute i saw the title i had a feeling this was about krokodil. but hey, gumi wears the "russian knockoff version of methamphetamine-addicted girl" look surprisingly well. im impressed
I thought it was about that too
its based on the drug with a similar sounding name www.google.com/search?q=crocodile+skin+drug&espv=2&biw=1368&bih=786&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjt-4yMjYjOAhVS1iYKHc3wDtQQ_AUIBSgA&dpr=2#q=krokodil+skin+drug
+Gabriel Reglisei eu pensei tambem você é esperto
thanks
It's a Russian knock off if heroin, not methamphetamine
Krokodil was actually created first in the USA, and then used as a freaking PAIN KILLER in russia and switzerland. GOOD WORK. GUESS YOU CAN'T FUCKING FEEL THE PAIN IF THAT PART OF YOUR BODY IS NO LONGER EVEN THERE.
The pure lab-synthesized stuff doesnt rot you, just fuvks up your brain. The made in a basement stuff is about 25% impurities like drain cleaner, and that's what makes your flesh into tres leches cake
If it works it works. (But seriously, don't take drugs kids. Invest in your studies and get a job. That's how it works)
BOP BOP BOP BOP BOP BOP

xCepheid (bop means a jam/nice song..... its a bop ii like this a lot gj!!)
Thanks!

What a dork. lol
THIS SONG IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!
This is a very good song and understanding about awareness to a very deadly yet unheard of drug. This is amazing, and everyone who participated, edited, illustrated, and created the music in this video should definitely receive more views and credit than they do. Excellent work! -Video is Editing goals EEEE-

You know, since this drug is popular in Russia and used in Swedan you might want to think about doing a Russian and Swedish sub version as an awareness against the drug. Plus, you might also get a ton of international fans of your work too. This is a very powerful song and I think this song could change a lot of people's lives for the better. Keep up the amazing work.
So, Um, I was just scroling down the comments to find out about the drug cuz i don't dare to look it up myself. And then i see this comment "This drug is used in Sweden too" I'm fuking terrafiyed now! Holy shit!
This drug is not popular in Russia for a long time. It was popular in very narrow marginal circles.

This channel's videos have the option for people to add subtitle in other languages! So if you want to cooperate, adding the subs in russian and swedish, you can
@@ambivalent5319 I write with the help of a translator, because I do not know English well. in Russia, this is a really popular drug, because it is brewed from pharmaceutical preparations, it seems, even without a doctor's prescription. For a long time, activists tried to ban the drug, but I'm not sure if they succeeded or not. he is the last stage of addiction, even worse than mephedrone. schoolchildren in Russia know quite a lot, huh...
How can something so enticing
Have such awful side effects?

yUP FOR SURE
IGNORE ME SOBBING IN THE CORNER
Me I went insane when I saw tryphophobia, But I don't have a big fear of that (I have a GIANT FEAR OF KROKO)
Pinkmew AJ Yeah, trypo isn't a fear of mine, just kinda gross and uncomfortable to look at.
But kroko... Now I have a fear of being kidnapped and forced to take it, and all the pain that ensues as my body slowly rots away. ( ⌯᷄_⌯᷅ )
This song gives many emotions for me coming from a family of addicts and seeing the damage to does to people. I love the instrumentals and lyrics. Listening to it and thinking of how horrific that actual drug is disturbs me, yet the lyrics are just saddening and applies to the topic of addiction.
"Lying never felt so fulfilling/displeasing, I think that tomorrow will be a new day to start fresh, repeat what's been done a hundred times again."
This couldn't be more accurate.
Unless you've experienced it first hand, having a loved one suffering from addiction is horrific to see. Reasoning and meaning of life no longer registers in their voice, but it's there.
lyrics:
.
The craving slowly starts again
Crawling up my skin
I want the blissful feeling of
Intoxication
I wander the streets searching for
Justification
An excuse escapes my pale lips
Addiction
.
Lying never felt so
Fulfilling, I think that
Tomorrow will be a new day
To start fresh
Repeat what\'s been done
A hundred times again
The sensation subsides
But slowly crawls back up my skin
.
The poison quickly floods my veins
Contamination
A stream of colours fill my head
Hallucinations
I collapse on the cold, hard, floor
Deprivation
The damage takes a hold of me
Infliction
.
Lying never felt so
Fulfilling, I think that
Tomorrow will be a new day
To start fresh
Repeat what\'s been done
A hundred times again
The sensation subsides
But slowly crawls back up my skin
.
The craving slowly starts again
Crawling up my skin
I want the blissful feeling of
Purification
I touch the leather surface of
My crocodile skin
I want a way to stop the pain
Depression
.
Lying never felt so
Displeasing, I think that
Tomorrow will be a new day
To start fresh
Undo what\'s been done
A hundred times again
The sensation subsides
And never crawls back up my skin
.
I'm usually not a big fan of English Vocaloid songs, but this is one of the BEST things I've ever heard !! From the lyrics to the instrumental to the amazing illustration and editing !!!! This is an amazing song and definitely needs more attention !!
Thank you so much!
I thought of the drug the instant I read the title. Ugh, how can people take that shit knowing the effects it has on the body ?
They don't. When they find out, it's too late
the rotting flesh is a side effect from the unpurified state of the the thing the pure drug which is known as krokodil (real name desomorphine) has the reverse effects of morphine
correct me if i'm wrong
When a heroin addict can no longer afford to pay for their fix, they might turn to krokodil, which is about a tenth of the price--since it can be made easily at home. Plus it has a much stronger kick and such. They know what it does to them, but they just don't care.
In other words, you're pretty much only going to take krokodil if you're already a massive drug addict.
because, heroin addicts who cant pay for the heroin, get this from having 00% chill, they know the effects, they just give 0 fucks about life, your welcome for the answer that dumb people can understand XD
found this by accident
i like it
thank you youtube algorithms
same
This is a perfect example of thought over mastering; cepheid was not yet a master of vocaloid, or of music production; and yet, for any of it's faults, this song is still a masterpiece of it's own. The ideas, the subject, the haunting, the composition, etc.
Even more so for *anyone* who's been addicted to *anything* this video should speak to your soul.
I swear i'm just addicted to this song, it's been repeating over and over in my head. I can't get enough of it.
Same. Let's be glad this is our addiction instead.
@@zhin13 Indeed
Addiction is an awful thing. It can drive people to do things that hurt others and themselves. It's sad. This song is good tho.
Concept for a music video if this were ever covered by another band.
It’s a single continuous shot of the singer. As the song goes on, the setting changes from the streets, to an abandoned building with a concrete floor, etc.
In some parts, the environment gets more and more distorted to represent the high from the drugs.
As it goes on, the singer who’s playing the role of the addict, seems to get worse and worse looking. They start out with a few scars and bruises, but gradually develop more of them along with open wounds, a bleeding eye, and maybe even some rough skin (but none of the awful deterioration that Krokodil is known for, that would be a little too graphic. But show enough damage to get the message across.)
The final scene is of the addict getting up and going somewhere. In the last few seconds of the video, some of the wounds start to heal, but the very last part is of her lying down in what could be either a bed, or a casket. The ending as to whether she lives or dies is left up to speculation.
Yo, may I know which song that is?
@@anco4738 this song, this was just a idea for a music video they had
@@sylvester.6069 oh i see now, thanks!!
I need to use this you are amazing
Great song. Really love thats its heavier than most other vocaloid songs and uses instruments rather than just beats and stuff (dont get me wrong, i do like those songs, but this is refreshing). Most vocaloid songs I come across I just think "Oh, another /Vocaloid/ song." But this song and your other songs are more "real" to me, its not /just/ the fact that its vocaloid that makes it special. Like I could easily imagine a band performing this live, something like that. Good work.

Ikr
I suggest you to listen to some of Utsu-P's songs.
I think the use of Gumi's regular outfit makes it so much more disturbing it's so weird to see this cute anime outfit on a bloodied almost horror movie villain looking character
It also emphasizes that even otherwise "normal" looking people can suffer from a debilitating addiction
..... Didnt think it'd be THAT gory................thats forever going in the vault of my mind.... I regret my life choices... STRONGLY...dont get why anyone would want to do that to themselves... But I guess GUMI pretty much describes why..... I need some cat therapy now...
kitties make everything better
Heroin is extremely popular in a certain part of the Russian border, and when offered Krokodil, many addicts will take it. The effect is stronger and the drug is cheaper, which I guess is why. Some people just place little to no value on their life so if its cheaper, they don't fear the dangerous side effects. I hope that explains why, or at least kind of does.
it's extremely addictive, and people sometimes don't even know what they're taking or the side effects.
Cats on crocodile tears.
@Kiko It exactly the same feeling, when you cutting skin with razor. I was doing that, when i was upset, and get addicted to this.
I think the drug is from Russia I believe? It eats your flesh right? It is highly addicting. But remember I didn't see the song when I typed this.
That's because "Krokodil" isn't the title.
Milkkie It is in the description of the video.
If you need to search something, you cannot search it by description. There is a title for a reason.
Milkkie Oh I misinterpreted what you said! I already know what Krokodil is but I was stating that I wasn't precisely sure but after the comment I did a search on it to see the exact details.
Ah, I understand.
gumi u ok
(Sees Gumi) Me: We need to put you on rehab
Still one of my fav
Getting into the daker vocaloid songs, cant sleep now, guess I'll go listin to ponponpon
*MESSAGE OF DRUG AWARENESS:*
Desomorphine (krokodil- the name of the drug the song is about) has been nick-named "flesh-eating drug" and "zombie drug" and it's not for nothing. It causes the skin to become decrepit, thicker, and eventually decay, looking moldy. The skin disease it causes is called Necrotizing Fasciitis, and as the name suggests, this is due to a bacterial infection when one consums d=this drug, causing skin damage within a few weeks. There is no cure to this aside from limb amputation, as the blood will be filled with gasoline and paint thinner, substances that are still present in illicitly produced desomorphine, because of excessive synthesis. This is why only hospitals and clinics possess this, as it is a derivative of morphine, which eases pain, and causes a feeling of euphoria, only for the person to fall down the rabbit hole and easily become addicted. In some way, in a legal context, when there is a company helping producing the desomorphine and searching to make morphine, they have less trouble "purifying" it (we'll say it like that).
Now a final little note: I strongly disadvice searching the name of the skin diseases, especially if you are sensitive and easily shocked. Even I haven't searched images of this skin disease in a long time as it is very gory. Remember that those do not come from horror movies, and are actually pictures of people who have the symptoms and took the drug... VIEW IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
I hope I was not too annoying with this, but awareness is vital. I also do not intend to scare anyone. I mean that it is understandable to want to challenge your guts, but there are some things better off unseen.
THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO UNDERSTAND THE MEANING BEHIND THE TITLE OF THE SONG.
On those pictures, for those who wanna know but not actually see it, read more for the gory details.
You were warned.
On top of this comment, it isn't just skin. It also can rot your muscles and flesh from the inside out, and seemingly bone.
Looking the disease up, I saw not only skin being taken off down to the tendons across the entire tops of feet and amputated toes, along the entire arm and into the chest, but multiple pictures of holes in peoples' faces. Like, half the upper jaw gone, no seperation from that hole and the eye socket, in fact there was no eye socket, and it went up to the forehead. All of it decayed and rotted. And the worst part is some of them looked not like it was an autopsy or they were dead, but like it was just surgery to remove. Like they were still alive through that.
Editing this to add. Sorry for your inevitable disgust.
What I said about the upper jaw to the forehead? I just came across pics of people with the whole side of their heads gone. One of them was definitely still alive, his eyes open and all, looking at the camera.
@@O111e You don’t have to apologize. You did give a warning. And furthermore, yeah it eats you from the inside because of all the chemical agents inside. I don’t quite remember the name of the disease where the body rots while the individual is still conscious, or rather decaying in several regions. Although I believe it was something along “Necrosis”, I just ate so, although I have a tough stomach, I’m not really keen on checking the decay out only to see the name. But I really do appreciate you pointing out and also trying to inform of the effects and the agony it causes on the body. So thank you. Nobody deserves to have any part of them decay while alive, much worse that they chose to dive into this rabbit hole blinded by comfort and a high to hide pain or inner conflicts…
I didn't know about this drug, and only after a research I found out that not only it did arrive in my country, but also near my town.
Its effects are fucking terrifying.
Nebiros Zael searching up the images prevented me from eating stuff for some reason.
*looks up krokodil*
Me: I shouldnt be scared, after all I've already read, listened, and watched some deep messed up shit.
i couldnt even be scared ive been to desensitised by the other shit ive read seen and heard i just think damn this is how the zombie apocolypse starts
Have fun... And may god have mercy on your soul...
Carnis The Corrupt Angel im not scarred but i only scrolled about halfway. i feel i little sick bc of the urolagnia and coprophilia but thats nothing new. i just came to ask, how in the fuck did you even find that page. jesus christ.
Sadly that "IS" The internet I didn't say I enjoyed it either but, That isn't even the extent of what can be on the internet and its honestly terrifying. But always remember that it can always be worse sadly.
Carnis The Corrupt Angel that is very true
The music gives me an Okame-P vibe while the lyrics alone (rather than the notes they're hitting, they're still Okame-esque to my ears) give me something of an Utsu-P vibe in terms of addressing something life-ruining.
Which is to say, it's pretty damn gud.
I looked up Krokodil images for only 5 seconds
And uh...N-no thank you
I showed my friend some pics. She was disgusted so badly and that's rare.

The melting affect you put on the flesh? nerves? I'm dumb and can't tell what it is but it fits pretty nicely for what the drug does. I'm not usually a massive fan of vocaloid (not that it's bad, it's just a personal preference) but all of your songs are really good. Props to you for the awesome work you do, my dude.
You can thank .nova for the awesome video and animation work she does! I just make the music :D
xCepheid Ah, my bad, in that case everyone who worked on this did a splendid job, it's probably one of the best (if not the best) vocaloid videos I've seen.
xCepheid so who's the artist who made this?
The artwork was done by Dasu, and the animation was by .nova. Nova goes by the name "Elbo" now, though.
Is it bad that this song is as addictive as krokodil itself (I've never tasted it and never will)? I guess it's quite paradoxical afterall.
Hey, at least you won't die from this video.
I have to thank this criminally underrated masterpiece of a song for being a catalyst to why I chose to pursue a career in pathology
When people tell me to not look things up after telling the said stuff, just makes me wanna look it up more
sorry
Stekino Mai just imagine zombies
Stekino Mai that's everyone even the most innocent people do that.

Same here. I searched it up and i really regret it now.
This is ultimately my favorite Vocaloid song.
Wow really great song and very interesting too! I'd like to do research on this drug but i'm kinda scared to.
Don't! for the love of God don't look it up, I did and I felt like throwing up.
Don't, but i will tell you that they live only two years average
its disgusting
I admit I stared at the images for a good while... Absolutely horrifying, yet I couldn't help but be fascinated...
I generally have a good tolerance for gore, though. Enough to watch a giraffe get dissected on tv when I was younger at least, lol
Torture though, I cannot watch.
Strawberries777 I actually looked at the images yesterday and I have to say I think I might be a sicko or something because the images for some reason...didn't bother me... like i could eat spaghetti and look at the images (which I did so i could test it out) I was kinda shocked of how much i could handle it but the only thing that comes to mind that just makes me wanna hurl is when someone told me to google Blue Waffles and let me tell you something blue waffles DID NOT come up.

This is really great. Fantastic use of vocaloid as well as very good lyric video. I have struggled with addiction myself and the lyrics really got to me. I am lucky that I never got in contact with drugs like this. Given how vulnerable I am to anything addictive, I might not be alive right now if I had.

Since June 1, 2012, the over-the-counter sale of codeine-containing drugs in Russia is prohibited. In some regions of the Russian Federation (Altai Republic, Kaluga Region and others), the sale of codeine-containing drugs without a prescription was prohibited by regional authorities earlier, back in 2011.
In March 2014, it was announced that the desomorphine market in Russia was virtually destroyed. Never again!
Yeah as someone fighting addiction myself (painkillers), I can relate a ton to this song. From making up excuses to lying to myself over and over just for the sweet little moment of feeling dizzy and not sad.
I typed "Kroko" And then paused and thought about what I am doing...

Thanks! Dasu and Nova always do a great job on everything!
I love your lyrics and I love the music you create. You make Gumi sound amazing. You are in my top 2 favorite Vocaloid Producers. I say top 2 because you are tied with 1st with another producer. I always look forward to your new music. You lyrics sweep across my soul revitalizing this tired old body. Thank you for your wonderful music and talent.
You're welcome! And thank you for your kind words!
Exceptional vibe tunes for gaming and such. I've listened to a load of tunes from this band and while the music seems a little monotone, I just can't express how this music amplifies my concentration and reflexes.
i think what i like most about this song (aside from the everything else about it) is the fact that it's incredibly dark and sad, but it has a hopeful ending. the lines "the sensation subsides / and never crawls back up my skin" give me the feeling that she was eventually able to overcome her addiction and finally stop using krokodil. the song's really good at illustrating how fucked up and destructive this drug is, but how there's light at the end of the tunnel, and it _can_ be beaten.
I keep coming back to this song time and time again. I was wondering if you'd ever release an off-vocal version because I also really love the instrumental track of this song. I'd 100% buy a digital single of this + an off vocal version.
I have no plans to release an off-vocal for this song.
@@xCepheid No worries, was just curious. Thank you for letting me know :)
Is no one talking about how Gumi looks like a half-ghoul as well? XD

Pop Music: -talks about sex- Vocaloid Fandom: -Talks about sex, depression, drugs, creepy shit, happy stuff, etc.- I like that the fandom is a mix of everything, because some songs are extremely powerful, like this one!
THIS IS SICK
I LOVE IT
there aren't a lot of songs that have been able to disturb me like this one, wow
This song gives me legit shivers
Omg this is just amazing!I really like this song and what it is talking about! I have a question: Can I do a cover on it? (I'll credit you and every pepole on the description of course)
Sure! Send me a DM and we can sort out everything there :)
xCepheid Oh thank you!
(I feel stupid but... What's exactly a DM?)
DM stands for "direct message". You can go to my UA-cam channel and send me a private message over UA-cam or send me an email :)
xCepheid okay thank you! :3
Did you get my message? :0
I'm not sure it worked
I first found this song 4 years ago when it had 300k views now its 1k from a million this songs awesome
Might be a late comment, but thank you for making this. Despite it being a different production overall, I do put this song up there with Metallica's "Master of Puppets" and "Sad but True," as well as Silva Hound's "Addict," (yes, the Hazbin Hotel song,) as perfect addiction songs. I've been fortunate enough to not be an "addict," but I do have an addictive personality, and these kinds of songs kind of fuck me up, but in a good way. Makes me want to stop short of going too far, even if I kind of do, every once in a while.
Of the above songs mentioned, though, this one is the only one I'd describe as desperate. This is the soundtrack to someone who KNOWS what they're doing, but can't stop. They want to, but their body can't, and that's heartbreaking, if for no other reason than that's the kind of thing that stole my mother from me.
Again, thank you, Cepheid. From banging my head to Chronos to digging deep within myself here, thank you for existing.
Love this song
I've been listening to this and Dasu's songs for years and I only just now learned the art is done by Dasu. Omg
You have a new subscriber because oh my lord your songs are just amazing!! I'm glad I found another person who makes such good music
I literally stopped drawing to listen to your music XD
Haha, thank you so much!

How on earth cepheid have u only got 54k subscribers u deserve 2 million at least this song just amazing im blown away
THIS SONG NEEDS TO BE MORE POPULAUR AS ECHO OR COPYCAT! ;-;
so at the end of the song, did she die? or end up getting help? I mean she probably died but...
My original intention was that she lived, but I write lyrics in a way that leave them mostly up to interpretation.
Bree Rose Looking at the lyrics, I think she probably found some kind of cure, but I could also be wrong.
She said "a hundred times again" Implying that she's done this 100 or 200 times. Krokodil (as found in another comment) usually takes at least a year to at least a year to kill someone. So I believe that she lived, hell, even a part of a song said that she'd stop. "lying never felt so displeasing" and so on from there.
+Xryeau _ That lyric was hyperbole, mostly to emphasize that she's done the drug many times. Not literally 100 times.
+xCepheid
Yeah but I feel like the wording would be different if it was for actually long enough to kill her.
Sent this to my friend..
"This song is really addicting"
That scream, those lyrics, the music! God I cannot get enough of it. The thing is, besides the crocodile skin part, this explains drug addiction really well, and it's an issue many have experience with. I had found out and done a lot of research about this drug and when I found this song I screamed. It's been almost a year now since I've heard it and?? It's still my favorite.
Beautiful as always!
Thank you!
I WASN'T READY TO SEE HER FACE!!! 😭😭.
w-what happened t-to her eye???!!
Mangled to The boneTM
The drug Krokodil messes with your eyes and skin usually resulting in Scaly skin, death in about 1-2 years, and (I think) it causes some sort of tissue to form around the eyes, ears and lips that quite literally eats you from the inside out
Now we have a female Oliver great
You think she looks bad!? Trust me, you don't wunna look at actual people who have taken the drug ;-; Its.......disturbing, to say the very least....
the artwork * ^ *
the lyrics * ^ *
the voice * ^ *
it's perfect * ^ *
THIS IS SO UNDERAPPRECIATED
I always get this weird tingling sensation down my back while hearing this song.
Freaking sweet, dude. It's so awesome to have found your music a while ago and enjoy a new release of great music just as it comes out. Amazing. Rock on.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for this awesome and slightly creepy song, I think it's really cool how you took rock and vocaloid and did it so beautifully I think you are my favorite vocaloid writer by far! :D
+Lily Sterling Thanks!! It's what I do best! XD
Very good job
Beautiful.
Amazing and Beautiful!Thank you very much!Happy birthday Gumi!
I should have took your warning about looking to up. That made my skin crawl.
im glad i read the comments instead of looking it up XD now i know that zombies exist in a way lol (but seriously. that drug is deadly D: )
*reads description about drug*
*sees warning about looking it up...looks it up anyways*
I made a mistake^
whoops...
R.I.P. mate.
THIS IS SO NICE OMG ^^
At 100% on everything, the voice becomes an instrument that you can understand. (close to hearing degradation)
Love it.
you can't exactly get better from krokodil. it's too addictive, she can't feel good from slowly curing herself. so i bet she is dying and progressively loose sensations starting from pain.
This video is scary but so addicting to watch.
masterpiece.
OMG THIS IS SO CATCHY AND AWESOME!!!! So... I'm guessing the song is about addiction and temptation or something...? I'm not entirely sure but either way, love the song!
Oh yeah, it's scary. Very scary.
This is AMAZING!!! hey guys Can someone tell me a couple of songs like this one from GUMI? like Self-Harm Colorless, or Wrist Cutter, ECHO or ASTHMA, Colours Fading, Or Crocodile Skin, please guys recommend me some good songs about lunacy or depression from Vocaloid please. I am amazed with this song, but I need more!
Venemous Syrin well I have a couple that are similar to this but aren't sung by gumi. Maretu songs tend to have this same vibe.
***** well recommend me a couple and of course I will listen to them!
Venemous Syrin One of my personal favorites is Mind Brand by Maretu sung by Miku. The English cover of Mind Brand sung by Katerinu2 also plays amazing on the ears. If you are looking for some songs with amazing plot lines like this, go to kikuo's channel. He produces some amazing music and adds grotesque lyrics and images and it just plays out well. One of my favorite teams of people who create English vocaloid songs ( they do use gumi a lot but mostly oliver ) is Morbid Morsel and Steampianist, which is found on steampianist's channel. You'll probably find a lot of other suggested songs in the recommended of these videos, so I'll leave you there for now :)
***** THANK YOU SO MUCH! I am def checking those songs right now, thank you thank you!
Venemous Syrin Haha, no problem! If you want anymore suggestions, you can always contact me even though I'm not the best at replying the same day :/
still a masterpiece
this song gets better the louder it is
Para los que no entiendan ingles la canción hace referencia a la desomorfina una droga mejor conocida con el apodo de krokodil, que significa ‘cocodrilo’, probablemente debido a una derivación del nombre clorocodida y quizás también al aspecto de piel escamosa que presentan sus usuarios habituales. Cuellos efectos son similares a la morfina pero 8 o 10 veces mas potentes. Se popularizó en Rusia debido a que provoca efectos nocivos como gangrena con necrosis de muchos tejidos. La chica del vídeo es una imagen representativa de como termina un adicto ha esta porquería
Yet again another amazing song!!! Great work! The meaning I got from this is really deep. Wow!
