this song evokes a feeling of strange freedom. I don’t know what that feeling is, but the scenes from the movie immediately pop up before my eyes. bright blue sky, warm sun and soft refreshing breeze, sometimes too cold. it takes your breath away and your breath disappears, as if during a fall, but such an inexplicable calm sets in...
People in the comments saying that their becoming 'Homesick for a place that doesn't exist' YET I AM IN MY BATHTUB TAKING A BATH AND I FEEL ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING :D
I’m just realizing that this song is a waltz and that’s perfect. It just makes me think of two people dancing happily through the ups and downs of their lives
@@anneagostinelli that’s funny, I actually looked for this song on kalimba because it was the song for my brother’s wedding when they walked down the aisle. We’re all huge anime nerds in my family lol
a poem based on the song: a field with flowers of stardust and sea, she picked one with the most delicate of tugs, and her lips turned upward lost and found in magic. eyes green as seafoam she looked at me and extended her hand. I enveloped her in a hug of stolen light. the sky darkened and opened up, as we danced together in tranquility, to the music of the sky shedding its tears. and by the time it stopped crying, I disappeared into the sweet light of dawn. until tomorrow, my love.
AMAZING!! Just what I needed to start my day off, a lovely poem with a cliffhanger. This will keep me in thoughts throughout the day if what happens next. Thanks so much for this comment have yourself a good day or night.
I'm really digging this song! I just bought a kalimba. This is world's away from where I could ever try and be lol. Recommend Into The Wilds soundtrack by Eddie vedder. Awesome book and movie, his soundtrack knocked it out if the park.
hiraeth, a welsh word. though it doesn’t have an exact translation, people often describe it as the word of “longing” or “homesickness.” hiraeth goes deeper than just “longning.” it refers to yearning for something that doesn’t exist.
doesn't this word imply "homesickness for a country not colonized by the british"? i hate to spoil the fun, but bringing it up like this feels inappropriate if i'm correct.
@@Blazequine I was wondering what you were talking because at the very beginning it didn't sound creepy at all to me but the more I listened to it yeah it does sound creepy this cover put in my mind Melanie Martinez and that episode of cowboy bebop where spike is fighting that crazy dude (can't remember his name) at a carnival I think
For me, it's really make me feel depressed. This song really brings back some terrible memories when I late to confess my feeling to her, but I'm happy seeing her happy with her boyfriend now...
ok but imagine this.. it's a sunny, warm, windy day - and your sat in the middle of a flower field. the grass is waving, the tops of the trees are dancing, and you hear this
It’s funny people mention feeling nostalgic for memories they’ve never had, or homesickness for a home that doesn’t exist. Ghibli’s films often revolve around the interconnection between our world and the spiritual world. The music makes us, as viewers, more immersed in the content of the film. But where there is no film and just music, we get these crazy indescribable feelings. Maybe music is a partial insight into what lies beyond this world and is why we feel so strongly when we hear these songs
I mean, while listening through, it sounds almost like an epic journey, like, Homer-style. But, what I find interesting is that I find myself hearing old folk songs laced into, giving it these distant home vibes that are hard to get from something new. The music itself is trying to find it's way back home.
@@iu117 Just listen in and every once in a while you'll hear the old folk song Greensleeves start to play. Once you hear that, you won't stop hearing it, and then you can slowly hear all the other themes
I miss how things used to be. My old class and my friendships that I've spend years to hold together, it all disappears right in front of me. It takes years to make something beautiful but a few seconds for everything to come crumbling down. I forgot I had these emotions, for some reason, this made me just silently cry while remembering the good times we had together. Nothing will ever be the same and I'll never find anyone as real as you. Such nostalgia
This makes me so sad because i miss somewhere that doesn’t exist. I genuinely believe this music taps into past life memories of another world where this magical reality exists. But because it’s a past life we don’t know what we’re remembering, it doesn’t make sense so we feel sad
Soph same. My heart feels like it's yearning for something but I don't know what. I don't feel like I'm where I am is my final destination if you understand kinda..
@@Moonmoonsz shiit, never thought about the "former life and magical reality" stuff until now. Cuz when I think about it, that would explain a lot. And what you said about this not being the final destination, I felt that too. But like, man wth do we do with these emotions??
look up "howls moving castle" on youtube. Somebody posted the whole movie to watch for free. And the movies emotions are "don't be sad because its over, be glad because it happened"
I watched it.... the film is gorgeous. It’s so whimsical and heartwarming. I’ll never be over how well animated the cooking, walking on air, and howl’s crow monster fight sequences are.
@@user-yt7zg4yl5m True but at the same time he’s insufferable isn’t he? Like, such a dramatic, whiny bitch. But there’s no one who can be more entertainingly dramatic
I’m going to take this opportunity to recommend everyone go and read the book “Howls moving castle” written by Diana Wynne Jones, it’s very different from the movie but it’s fantastic and I cannot recommend it enough!
When I listen to this cover of this song, I feel like I belong somewhere else. Like a carnival surrounded by crowds and crowds of happy and peaceful people. I feel like I belong as a clown or happy attendee, running and laughing, going on the rides like a merry go round. The carnival is peaceful. There aren’t super modern rides, just old fashioned carnival games and rides, throw the ball in the clowns mouth, shooting games, all that sort of stuff. The sky is a light blue, red, orange and pink creeping up from the horizon. The sun setting and everyone continuing to play. It shifts into a ballroom, everyone dancing and making memories. The last thing I hear before coming back to where I am as of writing this. “Welcome home, we missed you.”
@@KM-gj7bj not necessarily true. I do believe that each time we die, we are reborn as someone or something else. But our soul is exactly the same. That is why, from time to time, we get flashbacks of our past lives.
I did not write this, General Jaydonius did, who is an amazing lyricist. Here is his lyrics to this song After enjoying this song for many years, I've decided to write some lyrics that hopefully catches the meaning and purpose behind the song. You're welcome to change it to suit your own meaning, and maybe finish the rest of it off, but I tend to get so caught up in the harmony it would probably be rude to sing at all.
[Starts at 0:19] Will you enjoy, the merry go round? Do you respect, its ups and its downs? As it moves slowly, your soul still lowly, can, you bring back your joy to your heart? (Joy to your heart?) Come and enjoy, our merry go round Never is lost, but needs to be found You'll understand that as it moves like a clock, It's meaning is yours to unlock. Come with and sing, its riddle that's told Your mind is young, but spirit is old. The people dancing, children are prancing, as they sing to the songs of our lives. It's never is shared, or sung as a praise, but all just know of its name. The song that's called life that is sweet and profound, but then, just went as it came. Oh why, strip us of our friends? (Bitterly, bitterly...) Why, give us bitter ends? But the merry go round just still happily goes on, spinning, like hands, of time. (No purpose, reason, or rhyme!) Come and enjoy, the merry go round Never is lost, but just needs to be found Hear cheer and laughter, tales of never after, but it's lights will still shine through the dark. (I both cannot make anymore lyrics, and just love the song to much to put my thoughts over it by this point, and just let it sweep me off my feet, I hope you enjoy it, if you found this in the ocean of comments.)
This makes me feel like I am in the wrong place. Like I should be somewhere else... Somewhere where I can finally be in peace. One day, I hope I can go to that place.. and be the person I have always dreamt of being.
Just hearing this, as an ex ballerina, makes me want to go and put on my pointe shoes that I haven’t worn in months. Just dancing to this with bare feet brings back the old feeling of being a delicate, music box doll on stage. It makes me sad, but grateful at the same time :,)
While everyone feels homesick, I always feel the urge to paint or draw instead as I listen to this song. When I listen to this while painting, I feel like I'm my own painting myself. That I am the colour that soaks the paper beautifully. It's strange, but it's beautiful; to be one with art.
im currently having a mental breakdown and these covers on kalimba are really helping me feel safe; thank you so much, april. it truly does mean a lot to me and a lot of other people, im sure.
I also keep getting reminded of sailor moon when I hear this... Like there's a 3 notes that bring me back and remind me of the music box ending... Anime is such a great part of my life
honestly, reading peoples own interpretations of this song is my favorite thing in the world. everyones interpretations are equally unique and special to them as individuals, which truly makes me believe in the beauty and power of this piece of music. really, this song is beautiful it might make me cry. if anyone was curious, personally, if I had to describe this song as one thing, it would be the feeling of Love. And no, im not talking about the image of ball dancing with a special someone (that would be amazing though), im talking about the image of being alone in a special place. lost in the middle of a vast flower field or grassy plain with nothing near me but the sky and myself. that image, to me at least, is what Love feels like. to feel at home and somewhat whimsical at the same time as you stare endless horizons of clouds, grass and flowers as far as the eye can see. to me, thats what this song feels like.
I feel almost the same. Having a endless grassy field to run in forever and do whatever you feel like whenever you want to. I feel a sense of loneliness aswell as if someone is missing like my best friend but a special someone (if you know what I mean) doesn't feel right either for some reason. I'm a musician so if I could also have all the instruments in the world to practice and learn forever, that to me... would be my special place to stay forever. I hope that this dream could come true for my one day and I can find the missing someone in the incomplete painting soon.
To reference a sort of feeling I had. The Yuri on Ice Ost (from YOI) in my opinion told a strong story that I somehow felt like I was able to connect with but not entirely (it's hard to explain). Where there was a high point in your life aswell as a down. There was so much build up and suddenly you lost everything but in the end, something or someone found you to keep you afloat above the grand ocean... but you don't know what. Like mystery where at the end was nearly solved, it was at your fingertips but you could never quit reach it.
I can smell the freshness of the trees, the. Birds chirping The leafs falling and im there lying down, tranquil knowing that i run no danger no matter the time or day :"D truly a different experience Sorry if u didnt understand english is not my first language jaja
Songs like this one have gently pushed me to create wonderful cities and towns for my fantasy stories. I might never finish writing them, but somehow those places have become a mental palace in my mind, with all my characters, the people around them, the sounds of the town, the smells, how the light reflects on everything... I think I would cry if I ever got to be in those places. How to explain that I miss a home that doesn't exit anywhere but in my mind, yet I still can see it so clearly and almost feel it? Just imagining I could sit and talk with my characters while this song sounds somewhere around us... It's so weird and precious that I can't find the right words to describe this warm happiness that, again, doesn't exist. This comment will probably get lost somewhere, deep in between millions of thoughts of different people that happen to be here at certain moment in life. I guess I couldn't help but to spit it all out. You know, it's one of those moods.
I understand this more deeply than you may ever know. As someone who wields art as my way of surviving, I depend strongly on worlds and people who don't exist. Whether of my own imagination or someone else's, my heart feels connected to places I've never been, and over the years I've cultivated this feeling into an art of its own. The art of feeling a world so distinctly, that I remember that world as being real, and I can shape words around those memories in such a way that others might feel drawn to it as I am. It's a strange feeling, both wonderful and melancholy, but I truly believe I could not live without this phenomenon. It is, in a word, magic.
@@nightlight9292 "I depend on worlds and people who don't exist". That has really touched me so deeply. Thinking of it in a positive way, I guess sometimes we can achieve a different kind of happiness through this magic.😊
I feel like humans are meant to imagine, create, inspire, dream.. Although we choose to be distracted by the little things. I lucid dream often, which gives me that peace that needs to be restored, the peace which we may never get in this world. I dream about my characters, some faraway place that doesn’t exist on Earth, a place where I can be at peace. I find myself wishing I could have these things in my life, in reality. What I need to remember is that _imagination_ will always be with me. Imagination is the best part of being a human.
Same here! There are so many worlds in my mind with different people, just like you mentioned. It has become my safe place in a way, away from humans in real life, away from today’s society. Just a place of peace for my soul. I meet new people there, explore the city and do different activities. It is so amazing and so fascinating how the human brain works. When that place is settled (no more modifications), I just start to draw it and a special palette is associated with it. And I visit it from time to time. Pure nostalgia in my head... Thanks for sharing your experiences!
This theme gives me feelings of longing, wistfulness but joy as well. It marks the end of one chapter, but a beginning of another at once, and the feelings of sadness and happiness that come along with it. But it also feels youthful, adventurous, and playful. In this song I am taken out of the comfort of my normal life, and swept into a fantasy one filled with things no one could ever imagine. It is a whirlwind, it is curiously amusing, and I love it.
Ikr like I grew up on Howl's moving Castle and even as a child I could feel the emotion and even now I still cry when I listen to this song it is such a beautiful and magical song💜💜
I believe she has access to the whole Gecko brand Kalimbas, I dont know if she owns the company or is just sponsored by them, but she is in the music pamphlets that come with them
Paige Brady they don’t appreciate that she has more talent than all from them together actually I find it rude to dislike this video it’s fantastic but people are strange so perhaps they don’t know it better
Mine too!!! Like when I was little was the first time I saw it... and I literally repeat it like every day!!! I was in love with the whole movie and HOWL!!!❤💕❤💕❤
私はこの音楽が大好きです！ I love this music ! 日本の音楽をこうやって演奏してくれるととても嬉しいです。 I am glad you perform Japanese song. わたしはにほんじんでえいごがすこししかはなせないけど、わかってもらいたいです。 みてくれてありがとうございます！
I let my sister hear this song (she 2 years old) and she fall at sleep easier than i thought,and then my cat just sat in front of my computer and enjoyed until it end (My English bad :( )
I go into my mother’s room at 6am and start playing this song on my kalimba until she wakes up. She told me it makes her that much closer to living a fairytale.
Even though im sitting on my bed. If i close my eyes i can vivdly imagine the soft sea air, with the towering castle behiend me leading into wonderous wastelands. And then i open them and realise fantasizeing about adventures there is making me blind to the biggest one of all.
I feel you. I enjoy being able to close my eyes and be able to create my own peaceful world where I'm able to sit down on the soft grass with no one to disturb me and I can run around forever endlessly with nobody to make judgements. To open my eyes again really makes it a shame that it wasn't real at all and it was essentially just a lucid dream. I wish I could stay there forever without having to worry about the problems of the real world. It would be a dream come true if I could stay there or if everyone could have their own paradise or their own dreams come true, maybe the world wouldn't have so much hate otherwise.

I agree but don't understand
this makes me nostalgic of past lives i'm too young to remember and too old to relive
I’m too young to remember and too old to relive. I like the words you have here
Anemoia might be the word you are looking for. It means longing/nostalgia for a life you never lived.
@@KM-gj7bj not necessarily true. I do believe that each time we die, we are reborn as someone or something else. But our soul is exactly the same. That is why, from time to time, we get flashbacks of our past lives.
Yes...me tooo
Your kalimba is so unique and the sound is fantastic. Thank you for playing my favourite song :)
Likewise!
I did not write this,
General Jaydonius did, who is an amazing lyricist. Here is his lyrics to this song
After enjoying this song for many years, I've decided to write some lyrics that hopefully catches the meaning and purpose behind the song. You're welcome to change it to suit your own meaning, and maybe finish the rest of it off, but I tend to get so caught up in the harmony it would probably be rude to sing at all.
[Starts at 0:19]
Will you enjoy, the merry go round?
Do you respect, its ups and its downs?
As it moves slowly, your soul still lowly, can, you bring back your joy to your heart? (Joy to your heart?)
Come and enjoy, our merry go round
Never is lost, but needs to be found
You'll understand that as it moves like a clock,
It's meaning is yours to unlock.
Come with and sing, its riddle that's told
Your mind is young, but spirit is old.
The people dancing, children are prancing, as they sing to the songs of our lives.
It's never is shared, or sung as a praise, but all just know of its name.
The song that's called life that is sweet and profound, but then, just went as it came.
Oh why, strip us of our friends? (Bitterly, bitterly...)
Why, give us bitter ends?
But the merry go round just still happily goes on, spinning, like hands, of time.
(No purpose, reason, or rhyme!)
Come and enjoy, the merry go round
Never is lost, but just needs to be found
Hear cheer and laughter, tales of never after, but it's lights will still shine through the dark.
(I both cannot make anymore lyrics, and just love the song to much to put my thoughts over it by this point, and just let it sweep me off my feet, I hope you enjoy it, if you found this in the ocean of comments.)
wow....just wow.i cant even begin to describe how amazing these lyrics are. thank you. you made my day :)
wow.
if someone could do a cover with the lyrics though.
this is beautiful.
This is amazing!
wow so nice!!
so beautiful
カリンバっていうのか…オルゴールのようなとても美しい音色をしているんだね。

This makes me feel like I am in the wrong place. Like I should be somewhere else... Somewhere where I can finally be in peace.
One day, I hope I can go to that place.. and be the person I have always dreamt of being.

This is just what I needed in these Quarantine-times... who's with me?
That's the only reason why i been looking into this instrument 😂
I ordered my first kalimba yesterday and I am looking forward.
😱😱😱😱
😍😍😍😍
@@invinsible Omg! I'm so jealous! :o
invincible I’m jealous. Well I might as well buy one since quarantine is boring
literally bought one so i can try and teach myself how to play this while in QT xD
Just hearing this, as an ex ballerina, makes me want to go and put on my pointe shoes that I haven’t worn in months. Just dancing to this with bare feet brings back the old feeling of being a delicate, music box doll on stage. It makes me sad, but grateful at the same time :,)
Omg please tell me you did
Do it please ❤️
have you?
EVERYONE: *explains how they like the song*
ME: OMG THAT KALIMBA LOOKS SO COOOL
ikr!? it doesn’t look like a classic 17 key kalimba. that’s what got me curious
@@ashyfire33 yeah... It's probably capable of stabbing and killing you(╥_╥)
Elisha Songco not wrong, those keys look pointy enough to hurt

Or because you are an anime 😁
Sameeeee
The kalimba makes me feel hopeful, that is why I like it.
Can you do violet evergarden? And/or your name and/ or more ghibli songs!!!! ( I love your channel )
THIS.
And any songs from natsume yuujinchou too!

For some reason I read “violet evergarden” as violent kindergarten.. 😂
I would cry so much if she did violet/your name

カリンバの音はとても優しくて、私の心を落ち着かせてくれます。

Howl's Moving Castle is my favorite studio Ghibli film (also my first Ghibli film) and Merry go round of life is my favorite studio Ghibli theme song.
Same First and Favorite
@@Mimr3D Agreed Ghibli Movie are some of the best in animation, story and world building. Every one I watch feels like the first, magic
Same
Same! It's hard to choose between Ghibli films, but HMC is definitely my everything~♡♡♡ It has a special place in my heart~♡
sameee
楽器が凄く綺麗な音色で心が浄化されました。(੭ु´͈ ᐜ `͈)੭ु
人生のメリーゴーランドにこの楽器が物凄く合う。(๑•̀௰•́)ƅ̋
While everyone feels homesick, I always feel the urge to paint or draw instead as I listen to this song. When I listen to this while painting, I feel like I'm my own painting myself. That I am the colour that soaks the paper beautifully. It's strange, but it's beautiful; to be one with art.
Same, as an artist i can relate to you!!
@@singularity7855 glad we feel the same wayyyy
im currently having a mental breakdown and these covers on kalimba are really helping me feel safe;
thank you so much, april. it truly does mean a lot to me and a lot of other people, im sure.
I hope you are doing well....
I hope so
But i think that
If you can say you are having a mental breakdown things are either soon over or just beginning
I mean: “i hope you are doing well”
これなんていう楽器か分からないけど、とても綺麗。
素敵な音色。
ジブリにぴったりだと思いました。
カリンバと言うらしいですよ
ハウルの動く城の曲ですよね
オルゴールみたいな音色が合ってて綺麗
石田。 ありがとうございます
ベイマックス ですよね！
この曲と相性が良すぎます
Yes, very true.
I also keep getting reminded of sailor moon when I hear this... Like there's a 3 notes that bring me back and remind me of the music box ending... Anime is such a great part of my life
It was also the theme song of howl's moving castle an amazing art work by ghibli studios!
0:51😂
Felt that
Those first couple notes totally sound like the classic theme. Glad its just me hearing it
This reminds me of the episode where Mamoru and Usagi attended the ball.
Frick it, I'm rewatching Howls Moving Castle
They need to make a movie on the other books in the howl collection
honestly, reading peoples own interpretations of this song is my favorite thing in the world. everyones interpretations are equally unique and special to them as individuals, which truly makes me believe in the beauty and power of this piece of music. really, this song is beautiful it might make me cry.
if anyone was curious, personally, if I had to describe this song as one thing, it would be the feeling of Love. And no, im not talking about the image of ball dancing with a special someone (that would be amazing though), im talking about the image of being alone in a special place. lost in the middle of a vast flower field or grassy plain with nothing near me but the sky and myself. that image, to me at least, is what Love feels like. to feel at home and somewhat whimsical at the same time as you stare endless horizons of clouds, grass and flowers as far as the eye can see. to me, thats what this song feels like.
I couldn't feel more identified with your comment.♡
I feel almost the same. Having a endless grassy field to run in forever and do whatever you feel like whenever you want to. I feel a sense of loneliness aswell as if someone is missing like my best friend but a special someone (if you know what I mean) doesn't feel right either for some reason.
I'm a musician so if I could also have all the instruments in the world to practice and learn forever, that to me... would be my special place to stay forever.
I hope that this dream could come true for my one day and I can find the missing someone in the incomplete painting soon.
To reference a sort of feeling I had. The Yuri on Ice Ost (from YOI) in my opinion told a strong story that I somehow felt like I was able to connect with but not entirely (it's hard to explain). Where there was a high point in your life aswell as a down. There was so much build up and suddenly you lost everything but in the end, something or someone found you to keep you afloat above the grand ocean... but you don't know what. Like mystery where at the end was nearly solved, it was at your fingertips but you could never quit reach it.
You took the word right out of my mouth. That’s exactly how I feel. ❤️❤️
I can smell the freshness of the trees, the. Birds chirping
The leafs falling and im there lying down, tranquil knowing that i run no danger no matter the time or day :"D truly a different experience
Sorry if u didnt understand english is not my first language jaja
カリンバ？初めて知りました！
オルゴールに似てるけどもっと柔らかい音で和む…
This version of howls castle theme song felt like it came out of a music box with swirling ballerina inside 🥺

Mi uncle died today .I didn't know him but this makes me feel nostalgic maybe it's also because the mood of my family is very sad now.
I’m really sorry about that! I hope things get better! Sending love and prayers for your family
I had my uncle pass not long ago, didn’t know him well so I wasn’t sad. The atmosphere of your family well get better after a lot of mourning
Lovely resonance in the kalimba, those overtones are givin me the jibblies. Awesome cover!
gives you the Ghiblis*
@@stardustknight99 this is very high quality
As a child i loved music boxes, as an adult i still do. This instrument reminds me a great deal of them. I agree with you
This is like the last place I expected to see the jibblies referenced.

A nice song to relax and to dream. My minds goes away and I'm dreaming. A wonderful song
Hartwig Krause no one is singing
@@notSoAverageGuineaPigEnjoyer you know what they mean :)
Songs like this one have gently pushed me to create wonderful cities and towns for my fantasy stories. I might never finish writing them, but somehow those places have become a mental palace in my mind, with all my characters, the people around them, the sounds of the town, the smells, how the light reflects on everything... I think I would cry if I ever got to be in those places. How to explain that I miss a home that doesn't exit anywhere but in my mind, yet I still can see it so clearly and almost feel it? Just imagining I could sit and talk with my characters while this song sounds somewhere around us... It's so weird and precious that I can't find the right words to describe this warm happiness that, again, doesn't exist. This comment will probably get lost somewhere, deep in between millions of thoughts of different people that happen to be here at certain moment in life.
I guess I couldn't help but to spit it all out. You know, it's one of those moods.
I understand this more deeply than you may ever know. As someone who wields art as my way of surviving, I depend strongly on worlds and people who don't exist. Whether of my own imagination or someone else's, my heart feels connected to places I've never been, and over the years I've cultivated this feeling into an art of its own. The art of feeling a world so distinctly, that I remember that world as being real, and I can shape words around those memories in such a way that others might feel drawn to it as I am.
It's a strange feeling, both wonderful and melancholy, but I truly believe I could not live without this phenomenon. It is, in a word, magic.
@@nightlight9292 "I depend on worlds and people who don't exist". That has really touched me so deeply. Thinking of it in a positive way, I guess sometimes we can achieve a different kind of happiness through this magic.😊
I feel like humans are meant to imagine, create, inspire, dream.. Although we choose to be distracted by the little things. I lucid dream often, which gives me that peace that needs to be restored, the peace which we may never get in this world. I dream about my characters, some faraway place that doesn’t exist on Earth, a place where I can be at peace. I find myself wishing I could have these things in my life, in reality. What I need to remember is that _imagination_ will always be with me. Imagination is the best part of being a human.
Same here! There are so many worlds in my mind with different people, just like you mentioned. It has become my safe place in a way, away from humans in real life, away from today’s society. Just a place of peace for my soul. I meet new people there, explore the city and do different activities. It is so amazing and so fascinating how the human brain works. When that place is settled (no more modifications), I just start to draw it and a special palette is associated with it. And I visit it from time to time. Pure nostalgia in my head... Thanks for sharing your experiences!
What your feeling is heriath and ive felt that too
This theme gives me feelings of longing, wistfulness but joy as well. It marks the end of one chapter, but a beginning of another at once, and the feelings of sadness and happiness that come along with it. But it also feels youthful, adventurous, and playful.
In this song I am taken out of the comfort of my normal life, and swept into a fantasy one filled with things no one could ever imagine. It is a whirlwind, it is curiously amusing, and I love it.
宮崎駿作品がこうやって海外の方にも知られてるのってすごい...
日本ではあまり知られてませんが、海外でもジブリはめちゃくちゃ愛されてますよ！海外に長い間住んでますけど殆どの20代の知り合いはジブリの作品見たことあります
韓国でも本当有名❣️ファンが沢山います。🇰🇷 私も幼いごろジブリのアニメを見て日本が好きになり、日本語を勉強始めました。私みたいな人多分全世界に多いと思います。ちなみに一番好きなものは'千と千尋…'で、普段アニメ嫌いな母と一緒に最初から終わりまで見て、ときときしながら母を見ると笑顔で'いい作品だな'と言われてとても嬉しかった記憶があります。文化や言語が違っても良いものはとこでも通じるはずだと思いました。大事な思い出をもらえて宮崎さんに感謝しています。興奮してしまってすみません

where i can buy kalimba with 30 keys??? please help me! I am captivated by this instrument
Product from Japan IINM, search Mugen Chromatic Kalimba on Google/UA-cam
@@champCats You are amazing. Thanks so much.
keat tee Thank u!!! I have a 12 key kalimba so the sounds I can play are limited. Hopefully I can soon play more with that one!
There’s an old game called “ib” and it really reminds me of the soundtrack of that game.
I was just coming down here to post this exact comment! Made me wonder if the original soundtrack to ib was actually recorded on a Kalimba!
Now I wanna watch Cry and PewDiePie play again! Gonna go watch the gameplay now :)
Oh my god. I need to replay it now. Such amazing memories 🥺😭
THANK YOU I wanted to listen to it again but had forgotten the name....
Wht?
how can you not possibly cry while watching the movie and hearing this ost :((
Ikr like I grew up on Howl's moving Castle and even as a child I could feel the emotion and even now I still cry when I listen to this song it is such a beautiful and magical song💜💜
I cry every time without hesitation, I can’t watch the movie around anyone else :’(
Happy bday kookie same omg

One of my favorite Ghibli films! Could you please make a tab for 17 keys? That would be amazing
Did you manage to get the tab?
Why would someone dislike this video? Let alone over 500 people...just, why.
Because they cant find a 30 key kalimba lol I'm salty too but I'm just not gonna leave a like xD I kind of want to commission one.
People who don’t understand art.
probably because the music is played by 2 kalimba tracks but video is only showing one
Some of those dislikes might be accidental, it happens a lot
As for the others, no idea
Paige Brady they don’t appreciate that she has more talent than all from them together actually I find it rude to dislike this video it’s fantastic but people are strange so perhaps they don’t know it better
I can already see the old lady in blue suit
Me: oh, another of these videos
Me: reads title
Also me: *OMG YAAAAAS*
Musa Simone Hahahahaha literally that was me when I read that it was about howl's moving castle!! Love that freaking movie!!💕😭
Rose Dobre it is my favorite !
Mine too!!! Like when I was little was the first time I saw it... and I literally repeat it like every day!!! I was in love with the whole movie and HOWL!!!❤💕❤💕❤
Omg my favorite anime movie! I really like the OST from it. Thanks for making it into kalimba version! 😍 Sounds wonderful!

I let my sister hear this song (she 2 years old) and she fall at sleep easier than i thought,and then my cat just sat in front of my computer and enjoyed until it end (My English bad :( )
I go into my mother’s room at 6am and start playing this song on my kalimba until she wakes up. She told me it makes her that much closer to living a fairytale.
Can you do a The Legend of Zelda music on Kalimba pleaseee!! 😍😍
This is really pretty. I really need to stop being lazy and touch and play my kalimba.

とても素晴らしいです
心が落ち着くような音色でした✨
Even though im sitting on my bed. If i close my eyes i can vivdly imagine the soft sea air, with the towering castle behiend me leading into wonderous wastelands. And then i open them and realise fantasizeing about adventures there is making me blind to the biggest one of all.
I feel you. I enjoy being able to close my eyes and be able to create my own peaceful world where I'm able to sit down on the soft grass with no one to disturb me and I can run around forever endlessly with nobody to make judgements. To open my eyes again really makes it a shame that it wasn't real at all and it was essentially just a lucid dream. I wish I could stay there forever without having to worry about the problems of the real world.
It would be a dream come true if I could stay there or if everyone could have their own paradise or their own dreams come true, maybe the world wouldn't have so much hate otherwise.
Imagine just walking across the sky while the guy of your dreams is delicately leading you to the heavens with him.
I don't have a guy/girl of my dreams.
I just don't know. As long as they actually love me i don't care.
What if it's the they of my dreams
1 thousand dislikes are from people who sleep and hit the wrong button while listening to her video
