"Kagome, Kagome" - HQ [Romaji/English Lyrics] 

Hey everyone! The song predates the creepypasta and both are based on a simple old Japanese children's game. The game is an old folk song and a famous game for children in Japan. The lyrics to this song are somewhat ominous on their own and pretty mysterious. The original upload of the song on NicoNicoDouga came out in early 2009. The creator now calls the song "Kakome Kakome" to clear up the confusion with the game. The first entry of the creepypasta to the creepypasta wiki was in late 2011. And this is the original post because you can see each 'work in progess' step in the revision history of the post. Hope this help clear up the timeline a little more!

*Please play with us* Me:How bout Monopoly?Thats a good *none violent* game.

I noticed something: Rin is the girl who had her arm removed Len is the boy who had a deformed skull and haku is the girl who had most of her jaw removed

The kids in the legend didn't die; the sceintists' experiments made them immortal. Hence "the children who can never die."

FUN FACT: if you recognize this song but can’t place why, it may be because it was featured in the corpse party soundtrack for the second chapter

Everyone is talking how scary this is but actually this is so sad

Hearing this song again give me flashback when I was in middle school- When I was in middle school I joined the japanese language club. On our last meeting my teacher showed us this video and we decided to play kagome kagome... While the room is a bit dark bc of the heavy rain outsude. And after the class is dismissed we need to pass by a dark corridor bc the staff dont switch on the lamp. Talk about creepy. Im just glad there's no thunder or lightning--

This song woke me up yesterday. It just started randomly playing on my phone and I never fell back asleep.

honestly the experiment part is creepier than the murder part

This song reminds me of corpse party ~

me: *sing the song* friend: *closing my mouth* can you stop singing it!? What if the demon comes!?

"Who surrounds you everywhere?" *THE FBI*

Everyone: This is a lil creepy Me: The poor kids-

I get reminded of corpse party whenever I listen to this.

i sang this to my baby sister while she was crying and she calmed down and my mom said "great, shes like you, she likes weird satanic foreign songs"

This is about children back in World War 2, the Germans used to do sick and twisted experiments with them. This song is about the children's souls coming back to haunt them, and ultimately kill them by playing, "Kagome" or Circle You, where they slowly circle around the victim and ultimately lash out at them, killing the victim. All the vocaloids in the large picture are supposed to represent each of the children who were killed, and are each different spirits.

This song was always more sad than it was scary for me These kids are all alone and eternally suffering and likely in a lot of pain due to the torture and abuse they went through, but as they’re immortal they cannot die and move on to the afterlife, and are permanently stuck in the building that abused them and likely are haunted by the dark memories. All they desire is to move on, but they’re stuck in what’s essentially a living Hell forever. I can’t blame them for acting the way they did, being obsessed with the person who arrived in the building. They just want a friend who will play with them and make them suffer less The kids aren’t evil, they’re just abused and abuse can cloud one’s mind. They just want a friend, or have their suffering ended by passing on. The kids had nothing, or we can assume so by them being in an orphanage, and they saw those teachers as family… until they revealed their true colors AND RIPPED RUKO’S HEAD OFF. An experience like that definitely would mess someone up. I’d love to see someone make a sequel to this song where someone comes and saves the kids, heals them up and takes them out of the abusive facility or lets them pass away so they aren’t in pain anymore.

I like how Teto is in vocaloid songs even though she's UTAU

*Song starts* -What the heck is this? I hate it. *at the end of the song* -Not bad at all tbh *plays one more time* -This is,, i just,, oh,, THIS SONG IS AWESOME I don’t care how scary this song is This thing is catchy af

0:50 the most scary thing about this Rin's hand LIKE WTF HAPPENED

This song is creepy as hell, but I keep listening to it. I guess the melody is addicting for me.

2:35 This is probably my favorite- And scariest- part of the song. The art just makes it seem so scary. Heck imagine if you were in that situation.

Everyone's talking about how scary the song is but can we talk about how great the fucking art is?

4:56 : oh hey luka 5:06 : whoops my bad

In portuguese, "Kagome" sounds like "Cago-me", which means "I just shit in my pants".

Corpse Party - Vocaloid Version

Atleast len didn't die

Again with the happy tune and the depressing lyrics

I swear people are arguing over the origins of this game so let me make this clear before theere are anymore misconceptions. 1. This song is based off of a creepypasta known as ‘Kagome Kagome’, of course though the song itself has some altered bits that differ from the original creepypasta such as making references to the holocaust during when Conversion Camps experimented on Japanese Orphans (Japan was an Axis Ally at the time of the holocaust if I remember, correct if I’m wrong). More specifically that one experiment where they tried to unlock immortality by trying to see how they could disable a child’s ability to die. 2. There are two different kinds of ‘Kagome Kagome’, one of them is the creepypasta where you chop of a body part when you lose. And of course other is the original Kagome Kagome. The creepypasta Kagome Kagome is just an edgelord version of the original child friendly fun Kagome Kagome japanese game. 3. Calm down and don’t egt aggressive if you have questions or corrections please ask nicely. 4. Funfact Japanese are actually genuinely scared of the game Kagome Kagome (the original one not the edgelord one), there’s a belief that playing Kagome Kagome summons evil spirits. I don’t know how this belief came to be especially from a child’s game but yeah.

anyone on a creepy vocaloid songs marathon? ... okay then.. i guess i am weird...

This could become a horror game in where you'd have to explore their pasts to escape.

the best part about titles in another language is that your friends won't know what it means until you tell them to search it up. the reaction is ALWAYS priceless!

🎶Taaaco bell, taco belllllll Meat and lettuce so yu-ummy🎶

Me: Hey this song looks creepy Also me: but its like Kagome from InuYasha Still me: ok then I'll watch it Me after video: shouldnt have watched that shouldnt have watched that shouldnt have watched that shouldnt have watched that

Wow, with headphones I like how some voices are one the left ear while some on the right

So just to clarify, apparently after WWII nazis went to a japanese orphanage and took some children. The count of these children and be inferred during 0:57. Now, when the nazis took these children they knew that there was a supposed 'kill switch' in the brain. So, they thought that if they took out that supposed kill switch, the kid would become immortal. As suspected, all the children died but one. Apparently, it worked on her (I don't know her name though I think they didn't specify her name) but, the little girl became weird. Having to be odd such as standing alone in hallways, often creepy staring and even behavioral problems. Now the nazis saw this as a problem and wanted to behead her. But seeing how she was acting odd, they knew it was no easy task. So, they let her play a game simply called 'Kagome' which means 'circle around'. Now the rules of this game are very simple. You stand in a circle with one person in the middle. The said person in the middle must cover their eyes as everyone else circles around and just chants 'Kagome'. Once the chanting is done, the person in the middle- with their eyes still covered-- must guess the person who is exactly behind them. Now that the rules are covered, I can continue explaining. The little girl stood in the middle as the nazi doctors circled around her, and once they were done they let the little girl guess who was behind her. Sadly, the little girl did not guess correctly, and the nazis beheaded her. Apparently, the orphanage is still standing and some people have even wandered in. It has been reported that people who went into the room where the bundle of children played, you could see them and they would plea you to play a game of Kagome with them. The thing was is that you couldn't leave, and you had to play a game of Kagome with them. So, you stood in the middle while the children chanted. If you got it right, they'd let you go if you didn't, you suffered the same fate as the little girl. Sorry if this is wrong in some places ! I tried going off of memory

why do people hate it id understand i like the song 😺

Ok so I clicked on this song forgetting that I had left my blue tooth connected speaker in the other room I plaed the video then I hear the creepy eary music of the beginning of this song in the other room I then put my phone closer to my ear and came to find the music wasn't coming from my phone for about five seconds I had a heart attack then I paused the video then I realised .... I left the speaker

POV: you actually have friends but they aren't alive.

Everyone is saying that this attracts evil spirits, but- The original purpose was to ward them off, and get rid of possession.

“Kagome, Kagome” Me: “Inuyasha, Inuyasha”

Characters featured: Miku Hatsune Luka Megurine Rin Kagamine Len Kagamine MEIKO KAITO Gakupo Kamui Haku Yowane Teto Kasane Neru Akita Ruko Yokune Ted Kasane And the brown-haired one at 4:01 that I can't recognize (if anyone knows his/her name, please tell me)

"Circle you Circle you" is a game in which a child chooses the be the middle child. The middle child has to guess which child is behind them. If they guess correct, they move to the next round. If they loose, they get a body part chopped off. The last player in which has survived the longest, wins. The winning child then kills themselves to end the game. Do NOT try this game at home. You will not survive at best chances.

Me before listening to Kagome, Kagome: NOPE NOPE NOPE TOO CREEPY Me after: ok that's wasn't so bad a bit creepy but also sad

That hallway kinda reminded me of Corpse Party(but then again every hallway I see that has windows and looks school-like reminds me of Corpse Party :/ )

Now that I think about this song, why the fuck would anyone even enter an abandoned building unarmed? I would at the very least bring a pocket knife. Think about this logically, a building abandoned deep within a forest I would say that isn't the greatest place to explore without any sort of protection, some wildlife could have taken the building over and you would be fucked. Now I get that the Vocaloids in this are immortal and shit but at the very least you could hopefully cause some chaos among them and get the fuck out.

3:42 look closely and you can see an insane hatsune miku.

Ok so listening to this with headphones is way freakier cause the voices move around and it feels like they're circling you

The little child with his head decapitated, is he still alive if he is immortal? Since some children were successful at being immortal and are still playing the game in the orphanage.

I'm getting corpse party flashbacks from this... **shudders**

Me: "hey wanna play kagome, Kagome" My Friend: "What's that" Me: pulls out a knife "a game where I can chop you to bits" My friend: "0-0" Edit: Oh my god, what was wrong with me

*The Promise Neverland is typing...*

The instrumentals sound like they belong in a video game, to be honest XD

So what I've gathered is that these children were brought to a place in the woods and experimented on. They eventually all died but wished for more people to play with them. They remembered all the doctors circling them and thought it was a fun game. They lure children in and ask them to play. Then they say, "let's play 'circle you'". Obviously curious, the child offers to be in the middle. Then the others start circling them, giggling an insane giggle that eventually drives the "player" to madness. The children insist that you stay and torture you with the game until you eventually die. They don't know this, however, because their dead. Therefore, they think you're just sleeping. And while you sleep, they get bored of waiting and lure in a new "friend" and thus, the cycle begins again. Now im not sure if this is right (and correct me if im wrong) but that's what i gathered from it. :3

Me:Oh this songs start sounds so cute! **FINDS OUT MEANING AND LOOKS AT LYRICS** Me:mmnopeimout

anyone else really love the instrumental bit that comes in around 3:12? the whole song is fantastic ofc but something about that part in particular really strikes me. it sounds almost cheerful, but in an uncanny and frantic way and adds a lot to what was already a pretty unsettling song 😍

the melody 'kagome, kagome' and the pic creeps me out.... MAA!!!!

Taco Bell Taco Bell

We Gotta throw the whole Forest away

Girl’s sleepovers Friends: hey let’s play a scary 3 am game Me: let’s play kagome! Them: not today satan!!!

Songs like these are the only thing (next to cry's and Pewdie's videos) that's keeping me on RU-vid in fear I won't get to listen to them again.

This song is based off a Creepypasta, where Germans went to Japan and took children from an orphanage and performed experiments on them to make them immortal. So, no, they're not spirits because they cannot die. That's why they have such gruesome injuries but they're still moving and smiling like normal. It's because they cannot die. Edit 10/12/21: error fix

Everyone says the song is scary, but I find it strangely relaxing... Maybe I'm just ill.

The kindergarten class I tutor has this one kid with parents that let him see scary shit and one day it was raining and he wanted to play this game So I pulled him aside and asked "Did you get this game from a site called Creepypasta?" And he gave me this EVIL little smile and goes "Yeah I did" They still played it

I don't know which is scarier...the song or the 360p

Does anybody else notice when they sing circle you circle you it sounds like they are singing taco bell taco bell?

just found out what this is based off of now it's 200000 times creepier

I just came across this song and I don't know about you, but 2:24 has such a calming tone to it i swear

The name of this song made me think of the show InuYasha (Why , IDK)

I don't care if it's creepy all I am here for are MIKU and the other vocaloids songs cuz they are so good at singing

I know there’s lyrics at the bottom. But here. ------------------------- An old building outside of sunlight's reach Hallways with decay starting to leach Behind the door in the backroom Were children, remembered by what, by whom? They had been waiting for you to visit them for a long time We're so happy! We're so happy! Stay and play with us for a while! Circle you, circle you Please don't try to run from us Kakome Kakome What games will we play, can I guess? Before the moon sets again You can play with us until then! Circle you, circle you Who surrounds you everywhere? Orphanage deep in the forest greens So no one would find the dark machines Made from a little child's brain Immortality born of child's pain The children in the orphan place Circled the teacher with their smilings faces Singing a child's song "Circle you, circle you" Circle you, circle you Children, you just lost the game Don't run away, you're the same Before the moon sets aside Cut their necks off as they cried Circle you, circle you Who surrounds you everywhere? Even if your head is crushed in Even if your arm is taken The children who can never die They laugh at you sweetly Circle you, circle you Don't run away, you'll be missed Circle you, circle you Please drink with us, we insist You should come play with us Play forever with us Circle you, circle you Who surrounds you everywhere?

I swear, Vocaloids horror songs will just never get old. Especially Oliver's songs. I just can't get enough of listening to his sweet little voice.

If you pause at 3:43 there is a surprise

luka sounds a bit like len....

THEYY ALL NEED A SNICKERS

Me: *listening to this song with earbuds plugged in & the volume on 70* Luka: *singing her part* My mom: her voice is pretty, she's nice, I like her Me: *laughs* I agree but this song is NOT pretty My mom: I don't care I like her Me: ok

INUYASHA! KAGOME! INUYASHA! KAGOME!

this doesn't scare me or soothe me. my heart aches for those children. whyyyyyyyy

My best friend: Hey wanna play this game? Me: Oh heck no! (saw a random girl playing with my friends) WTF?

The only song that len didn’t die even after brutal incidents.

Yes, perfect RIGHT before I sleep😅

the fact i'm crying at this song not because it's scary. But the strange nostalgia and the fact i found this song in my darkest time in my life...

cant believe it's been 10 years

I remember watching this as a kid. It freaked me out and unnerved me, but I couldn't help but enjoy it.

is it bad i kinda feel sorry for them?

so there's Miku, ❤KAITO❤, Kagamine len and rin, Luka, meiko, gaukpo, and some other vocaloids.

THE FEELS SO MENNY FEELLS

HAVE YALL NEVER NOTICED HOW WHEN LukA TALKS IF YOU hAVE HEADPHONES ON YOU HEAR HER ON THE LEFT AND MIKU TALKS AND YO HEAR HER ON THE RIGHT LIEK WOAH -I was typing uhm, fast.-

Anyone else loves part 0:50 ?

Akidearest, Anyone???

This song gives me chills whenever I listen to it (I never get scared of things but this song is just unsettling to me, and when I am scared of something it takes me a rlly long time to recover xD) now I have to go to the bathroom but it’s across the hall from me and it’s 3am rn...

After years of listening to this song, I just came to realization that the child whose head gets cut off is actually Yokune Ruko

No one: Not even a potato: Depressed creepy 10-14 year olds: I find this relaxing. Edit: I- why does this comment from 10 months ago have so many likes 😃

2:50 OMAE WA MOU SHINDEIRU..... *NANI??!!!* [*THEY CUT A HEAD*]

I summoned a demon listening to this song But we cool tho

"who surround you everywhere?" My fcking depression

Akidearest,Anyone?

Let's play 'who stole the video?'

1:48 THE BLOOD MOON RISES ONCE AGAIN

This wasn´t made from a creepypasta, its much more worse than a creepypasta because all of this is real and beyond. This song reports only a few cases but was based on the Unit 731 experiments made on WW2, wich has an estimate of 10.000 victims to this kind of brutality towards woman, men and children, please look it up if you will.
