Originally we were going to have the Japanese zombies just sound like regular zombies… but as I was reading through the lyrics, as a joke I started reading them as if I were one of those highly energetic Japanese gameshow hosts. My Dad is the voice of the Japanese zombies (George is the voice of the English ones).
Who is voicing the Japanese zombies, and why do they not sound like typical zombies? It also solved the problem of matching the melody despite the disparity in sentence length (but as such, the meanings of some of the sentences were changed). So I worked with my Dad to come up with lyrics that fit a more “children’s song” style… that way the song felt like its own song (rather than just a translation), and it really matched the sunflower. For those of you who speak both English and Japanese, you know that one sentence in Japanese is quite a bit longer than its English equivalent (which is one of the reasons those old Godzilla dubs are so hilarious). When I set out to make the Japanese version, my goal was to try as best I could to maintain the original melody and meaning behind the lyrics in the English version, but give it its own flavor as well. Why do the English and Japanese lyrics have slightly different meanings?
Zombies, I found that I was really partial to one of the subtle background melodies… I thought it would be cool to take that melody and spin it into its own song. When I was composing the music for the pool level in Plants vs. How did you come up with the tune for this song? I decided to make a Japanese version afterwards because I thought it would be fun, and being half-Japanese, I always look forward to the chance to represent both sides. What came first, the Japanese or the English version? Zombies song (“Uraniwa ni Zombies ga!”), so I decided to post them here for you 🙂 I also wanted to try and answer some of the questions I’ve been receiving about the song since it was first released: Hi everyone… I’ve got something for you today… I’ve been receiving a lot of requests for the lyrics to the Japanese version of the Plants vs. Tags: plants vs zombies, uraniwa ni zombies ga
