【Gakupo】 Joker 【English & Romaji Sub】 

Me, 8 years ago: OH NO HE’S HOT!! Me now: OH NO HE’S HOT!!

He always have this lusty vibe.

"I used to think that my life was a tragedy. But now I realize, it’s a comedy"

It's weird thinking that not only was this originally a Miku song, but that the Gakupo version is the more popular version. (Listening to them side by side, I can see why the Gakupo one is more popular though... the style of the song fits his voice better.)

Everyone: *Arguing about what's was first: Miku version or Gakupo version) Me: Wait, is there even Miku version?

“We live in a society, miku”

i think i definitely prefer gakupos version since it makes the scenario seem more dangerous and threatening instead of mikus rinky dink game. also it just sounds better you know

THIS GUY IS MY FAVOURITE VOCALOID

"What do you get when you cross a mentally ill loner with a society that abandons him...and treats him like trash? You get what you fucking deserve!" -Gakupo

So basically Gakupo is a demon who loves this girl and wants to marry her but the sister finds out and gambles with him, if she wins, she gets her sister back, if he wins, he takes them both. The sister loses and the demon takes them both to his world, he begins to do something with them (I dunno) but they attack him and run away.

First Gakupo song I heard, fucking amazing.

Did the person make this after they watched Batman and Black Butler? Like woah.

I'm not sure if this is true, but I heard a while ago that the intended singer of Joker was Gakupo, but the producer was unable to get him to work right so they had to use Miku instead.

I CANT BE THE ONLY ONE THAT THIS SONG TUNE REMINDS ME OF WE ARE NUMBER ONE!? Just me... ok....

What's with Gakupo and girls??

he just be living in a society vibing

i rlly thought this wouldnt have any recent comments and i could comment a joker movie related joke but 🗿

I'm listening to Gakupo singing, then my Gakupo alarm goes off. GAKUPO-CEPTION XD

this song scares me cause is voice sounds hecka real at times

GAKUPO B LIKE "WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY"

best version to be honest...

Gakupo is best vocaloid :>

Gakupo’s version will always hold a special place with my heart. It’s the first version I heard!!! ♥

*W E L I V E I N A S O C I E T Y*

When you live in a society

The original version features Miku, while a popular parallel version by Camui Gackpo was uploaded several months later; both videos have since been removed from Niconico. Five other official versions of the song were uploaded between 2008 and 2011. All of these as well have been removed from Niconico. I like Gakupo's version better lol

Omg, a vocaloid song that actually had rhyming lyrics

11 years later and this shit still slaps

It's been years since I've stopped listening to vocaloid. I wanted to pay what used to be one of my favourite songs a visit.

I just love the way it rhymes;catchy

I NEVER KNEW I NEEDED THIS

If vocaloid met batman xD

I contemplated a lot about the meaning behind the song, and ran to a few possibilities. I'll comment on what I think is the song is about. I assume the song is about a sociopath who lives in his own world and treats the girl he lures with his charm as " cards" in a "game" which is the situation. The females he is probably kidnapping are depressed females who are attracted to his compassion and sympathy. I'll be using a few lyrics as why I think this is the most likely meaning. " Shall we begin? It's showtime" This is his way of mentioning how he charms the females. " How does a game sound ?" He assumes as a girl gets closer to him, they are giving him a consent." Please allow me some of your time" Meaning to let him into your world. " Compassion is useless affection, you want a favor from me, penalties are inevitable" He acts as sympathetic and compassionate toward them, mentioning how compassion is a simple way of getting the " cards" The " favor" here is probably a metaphor on how the females want him to make them better . The " penalty" from my assumption is a metaphor of how it's his way of punishing them for their " performance " in his game." Pleasant circumstances have risen" The circumstance is his way of mentioning that there is a " card" he can obtain.I'm not exactly sure about his " game" but I assume he was betrayed by his past lover who he considers played him like a " card" to gain an affection of a another male. So, heartbroken he now considers any female who wants his attention as to people who want to use him so before they use him, he charms them and uses them as " cards" I assume after collecting a " suit" of cards. Which means women he collects and assigns them to spades, diamonds, clubs.. etc he will make them compete over the others females and the girl who wins will be allowed to join him ( the other women would be murdered upon losing the " game" )and they would continue to hunt down women and make the whole process repeat again, the girl who is the victor of one of his " games " would probably be murdered after the new " victor" , the new female would replace the old one and the whole process would probably continue.So how does it sound?

I like how it rhymes

WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY-

Love the rhyming. :)

Gakupo’s voice is so much more tolerable than Kaito’s. Gakupo and Len will always be my favorite male vocaloids.

This is my fav version of joker

in my opinion, this one i better then the miku version :/ oh well xD

10 years later and it's still hot

_get a load of this society_

What's with that picture of Michael Jackson

Okay, the song slaps and all, but the lyrics kinda give a lowkey fedora vibe, you know?

this picture makes me *uncomfortable*

Oh so Gakupo was based before it was cool

I feel as if this song is maybe about some guy who stalk people and possibly kidnaps them and he fell in love with one of his targets but in a demented way because he's stalking them or something and they don't love him back or something of that sort...I don't really know.....

Oh! okay, thank you for telling me. I've fixed the credits now ^^ And thank you for translating so many songs ：）

Is it just me or does this sound like the story of how Duke Venomania came to be?

funny joker society post you may now laugh

BEST. GAKUPO SONG. EVER.

actually they did not screw up this version, it was supposed to sound like this

Anyone came here after the joker movie? :D

This seems like it's based on Batman's Joker. Which wouldn't be too far off, honestly. If it were the case. Keyword, "seems". I'm not entirely sure.

Damn even gackt's voice are slightly menacing at times 😳

Gakupo's dark voice ❤️❤️

came here after the 2019 joker stairs lmao

This is actually the official Gakupo cover, for some reason ∀studios has released 7 different versions of the song, but then deletes them after a few weeks/months. -Joker (Miku) -rekoJ (Miku) -Joker (Gakupo) -Joker (∀studio's cover) -Joker~the new encounter~ (Luka, Miku) -Joker 2nd Edition (Miku) -Joker 3rd Anniversary Ver. (Miku, Rin, Luka, Gakupo) The Backwards version doesn't even exist anymore, because nobody downloaded that version before it got deleted.

eerily accurate to 2019 joker

Hey! Is it just me or that sounded just like Monochrome no Kiss (Kuroshitsuji's OP) right there at 0:47? xD

This needs. To be. A anime.

THIS IS MY JAM

Rolones que nunca se olvidan

I like gakupo he's a psycho I like him

11 years later and it is still good

Am I the only one wishing I could just hold him, like he has been heart broken to many times

Judging the fact that I like DC,and that Batman is a favorite. This is kind of upsetting,but not at the same time.

I cant be the only one who thinks of Persona 5 when I hear this right?

I love his voice

I loooove joker from kuroshitsuji he's my favorite! watch black butler love anime

turns out gakupo is the joker from batman

There are many different ways to translate the same exact lyrics ^^

Came back to this years later

omg fangirl for life

I love the voice sm AAAA

this was so gewd x3!!

I am still here 10 years later, what a ride

I sync played Gakupo's "Joker" with Gumi's. It sounded so creepy since they are in different keys.

That face gives me nightmares xD

This song actually reminds me of Hisoka from Hunter x Hunter

i love this still

I am about to cry because of his voice like who he know

The longer I watch,the creepier it gets

this is so catchy, I can't quit watching

He kinda looks like Sebastian from Black Butler. Without the creepy smile.

Ya see, there's songs like this and there's songs like Dancing Samurai...

This song reminds me of my three loves the Joker,Jeff the Killer,and the Undertaker so I love it!

In the beginning it sounded like this was going to be "we are number one"

It's not a computer music group. Vocaloid is a program that allows you to make songs with an artificial voice which uses samplings from real voices. Gackupo for example use the voice of Gackt, a famous japanese singer. Anyone can buy the program and make songs using their favorite vocaloid~

After going through dozens of covers I realised how much better Gakupo was...

Why so serious? :3

🎊Happy Birthday Gakupo🎊

still a legend

Everyone talks about how this song would totally work for Batman and Black Butler, but am I the only one who thinks it would work for Tulbalcain Alhambra/Dandy Man from Hellsing Ultimate?

great song!

Luka Quinn? Good idea? No? Yes?

De las primeras canciones Vocaloid que conocí ^_^ han pasado tantos años...

ohhhhh! i see!! thank you!!

Looking cool joker~

oh man this was like one of my first vocaloid songs

I'm soooo downloading this song.
