      Why is that depressing they created it and it gave results, if anything they SLAIN the dragon of their dreams.

    KATACHI means "shape" in Japanese.

    This video needs to be reposted as "Unbelieveable stop-motion papercraft animation" to really get the UA-cam views it deserves. That's how it usually happens.
    Absolutely breathtaking work in music and visual art. Beyond rating.

      @SuperSerialnumber 8 років тому +12

      +Bia Vieira Maybe the lyrics are about a butterfly who peed in the mouths of millions, giving them cancer aids, and making them fart when they speak and those people feel offended. Or maybe they did't like the song.

      +SuperSerialnumber I thought people might be curious so
      If you spit out
      Everything you've seen so far
      Before a summary voice
      Passes through your throat,
      A dissenting voice
      Will reach your throat
      And everything you've seen so far
      Will be erased.
      Before that happens,
      Retain their shapes unchanging.
      That's where I'll be waiting.
      That's where I'll be waiting.
      Before the dissenting voice
      Passes through the throat,
      If you can't make a move by then,
      Before you have to get out the oil can
      To get yourself moving,
      Even your laziest memories
      Will be erased.
      Before that happens,
      Retain their shapes unchanging.
      That's where I'll be waiting.
      That's where I'll be waiting.

    Had this song in the back of my head for years, and I love not only the soothing intonation, but also the music video. With how advanced AI is getting to be, it will never be so good as to replicate such wonderful artistic expression. ♥♥♥♥
