Music from the animated film Paprika. DISCLAIMER: The rights for both the image and music in this video belong to their respective owners. I do not take credit for either.
Susumu Hirasawa put Satoshi Kon's dreams, and his animation, to music. This music fits the visuals...perfectly. This music, is the sound of lucid dreaming.
a theater in my area is showing that movie at the moment, was my 9th time watching it over a course of 5 years, looking forward to my 10th time in a couple of days, Paprika never disappoints
It's become a life goal to see every Satoshi Kon film in a cinema experience, What the films were intended for! Also i'd love to see Susumu Hirasawa in concert but i live in Aus so I think i'll have to go to Japan for that haha...
Me and my sister watched Paprika at a convention when we were teens. We had NO IDEA WTF was going on at any moment the entire time 😂😂 By a good margin the most weird random sequence of events I've ever witnessed. This song is awesome though, the vibe is immaculate ❤
I love the optimistic view it took to how crazy and wonderful dreams could be. This theme right here just encapsulates that wonder in the opening sequence
Art is the only thing that makes me cry on a consistent basis. I cry at music, stories, comics and lyrics practically every day. I love and am always deeply impressed by the beauty of well-crafted things.
This song is so beautiful that it makes me excited for the joy, brings joy and manages to make you see the world positively. As if it helps you believe in your dreams. At the same time, however, my heart is crying because I think Satoshi Kon had other dreams to realize, he still had a lot to give. And through this melody I am able to perceive his love for this project and for the desires in which he aspired.
The intro to this film is one of the best intros to any anime production I have seen! Musically and visually collaging ideas! Paprika's intro is up there with also the Full Alc Brotherhood introduction. Oh, and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure intros never disappoint.
The first time I watched this movie was on a laptop in bedroom and I finally got to see it in theaters this weekend and it was so amazing hearing this soundtrack in that setting for the first time. The creative, uplifting sounds from all the organized chaos in this song made me tear up.
The intro credits had me in such a trance. I saw Perfect Blue, Tokyo Godfathers, then this all for the first time in theaters in the past year. Satoshi Kon fest was such a blessing. I hope it happens again and again because his movies are all so incredible on the big screen. (it would be nice if they were actually showing ALL his movies)
@@nremac I saw Millennium Actress for the first time in theaters about 4 years ago for a Fathom Events thing and it was so good. Satoshi Kon movies really do just have this dream quality in general that just feels so good to be enveloped in.
i just watched the movie because i liked this song so much, it was delightful to hear his music accompanied with those visuals, they really complicated each other a lot
I just Watched The movie Yesterday and.... OH BOY IT WAS INSANE. At The End Of It All it did not feel like a movie it felt like I was In it experiencing everything that goes on in it. THAT WAS TRULY A MASTERFUL DISPLAY. The artwork, the story, even the music is INCREDIBLE. *ONE OF A KIND* I just can not believe I have not heard of this movie mentioned sooner.
@@dorian4426 'Term for his fans, wordplay on ‘nobody, person of doubtful origin’. It was first used by Hirasawa on Twitter on October 4, 2009.' If you like his music you are a Horse's Bone, a nobody with truly a doubtful origin. Usually used in a negative way, but Hirasawa used it in a more positive manner in a tongue-in-cheek way.
@@koscheiivanovisch4540 Thanks for sharing the technical term. I dun study music so thats an interesting piece of knowledge for the average consumer :)
@@lagoweyeo4902 and translated that'd be "core motive" or "main motive", which makes its function a little more transparent to English speakers! The Undertale soundtrack was also spun out of a few key leitmotifs.
This world deserved to see what more Satoshi Kon could do with his talent and passion for animated films. It is very sad we could only experience it so much, but at least we have what he left behind to remember him for a long time. Hope you are doing great up there my guy.
This movie was by a big margin the most confusing and random sequence of events I've ever witnessed, I remember watching it on the big screen at an anime convention with my sister when we were teens, and we had no idea WTF was going on at any point 😂😂 This song slaps though, it's incredible ❤
Daniela Panteleiko Yes thanks. But it's annoying having to press play every 3-4 minutes when I'm drawing or something. Having a normal loop button would be nice.
There are only a few Satoshi Kon works that I haven't watched. I only keep them because the feeling after watching them for the first time is some of the most introspective and mesmerized moments while enjoying media.
I know it seems silly, but I just love the fact that the first words said in the song may be heard as "here we are". Dayum, does this feel inspirational..
if it was more excepted in our unbearably artistically challenged society alot more people would probably see these amazing movies. I never saw it as something to be ashamed of like people taught me too. I saw it as art. like walking through an art gallery. many artists put their heart into this movie. And it showed.
III: Nah OP is right. Even now you see people treating animation as a medium below live action. It's not even a matter of preference, they're just assholes about it. It's so dumb
They who? People who don't see animation as art don't see animation as art? Yeah, seems about right. But find me any expert, any well educated in arts person who says that. Now that's hard. So, "they" are random people from YT or what? Anyways Paprika is a candyeye. Nice to see, I love this movie, but I don't find it sophisticated, higher or anything. Simple ideas, simple visualizations of these ideas, nothing deep. Let's face it, it's a sunday movie.
A perfect killer combination, Sci-Fi with Satoshi Kon and Susumu Hirasawa. Just watched it again after years, everytime is not the same but better. Maybe he waked up from the dream and maybe he gave us directions to distinguish between dream and reality.
