Week 30 Day 1 - Sunny Sunny Happiness

OK, another bad start to the week, being 4 days late. But no matter, as massive update to come by soon. This week it's gonna be anime songs again, starting with:-



Song: ハレ晴レユカイ by 平野 綾, 茅原 実里 & 後藤 邑子
Hare Hare Yukai (Sunny Sunny Happiness) by Aya Hirano, Minori Chihara & Yuko Goto


To those who do not know this song, this is the famous ED for the 2006 show, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya [涼宮ハルヒの憂鬱 | Suzumiya Haruhi no Yūutsu], of which the ED can be found below:-



Or the special full-dance version:-



Well, as can be expected of a song with that much ED quality into it, especially with the dance and all, you can be sure to expect tonnes (and literally, tonnes) of videos with dance parodies, ed parodies and even just the normal dance. I will try to put some up without blowing my internet cap.

But first, the lyrics. Found here and here.


[Actual live performance dance by the 3 singers, though due to that, it's highly likely the song is lip-synced rather than sung :( ]


[Chaotic version of the song. Some b/g needed, when the show was released, they released 9 character albums, each with their own solo (and later on, their own renditions) of this song. This vid meshes them all together to form one big chaotic version]


[Dance version, featuring the characters from Kyo-Animation's animes. Some of them quite recognizable]


[Same dance, featuring the characters from Super Smash Brothers series]

Other dance versions include Rockman, McDonald, Tales series, Evangelion, Pokemon/Pikachu, and tonnes others. Just search it on youtube or NND to find more.


[Even a 3D version exists, though I'm not what the history of this is precisely. Just enjoy it]


[MIKU Version.]

I am tempted to embed a dance video that can easily be found on youtube, but I think I shall leave it to the viewers to view it for themselves. Just follow the link here and take your pick.

Some trance remixes of the song:-


[EXIT trance remix]


[Extended version of the same song]


[Hare Hare Yukai (ハレ晴レユカイ) -Anthemic Trance REMIX- from the The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Super Remix album. It is an official release]

And finally,


[Chaos version of the song. This is to test the niconico embed feature that I recently just found out about]
[Note: further inspection of the code leads me to realize that it's the same as the one I've been using, except it adds a link to the video itself. Cools]

That's it for the first post now. This is a well-known song for a long time, and therefore putting in additional videos when I'm a bit low on motivation is kinda, hard to do really. In any case, post 2 to follow up shortly.

Note: While I do like this song, somehow I've seen enough of the dance to make me NOT want to pick a good one out to post it here.
