Like a Dragon: Gaiden - Karaoke: Sayonara, Silent Night [CINEMATIC]

[@Zeddddy]

The lyrics are sad af, its about a man falling for a girl who's already taken. He can't help but feel lonely and miss her during Silent Night (Christmas Eve), knowing that she's gonna sleep with someone else on that night

[@forgottenartform]

Why am I not surprised - after Today is a diamond I should know not to trust upbeat sounding songs in this series

[@forfunsake2054]

At 1:28 you can see all the people who walked by all have their respective partner with them except kiryu, Theres also the fact that kiryu suddenly remembers Yumi in this game and we all know who she ended up with....

[@Neelo_Angelo]

Fuck.....

[@DMAN99]

@@forfunsake2054god I hope this is foreshadowing for kiryu finally moving on from yumi’s memory and pursuing a certain Korean woman

The only dude that Kiryu lost to is a certain American cop (his name is Johnny Sins).

[@ahhhhhhhh6763]

Official English Lyrics (from dub): Can you tell me just how far I have to go To have you and your angel smile all to myself After who knows how many nights So many tears and colorful lights Can you tell me just why, why is my heart still so aglow? Swallowed by pain, while the world dances in the rain I can only pray this crowd hides all these tears that fall Never endured such hopelessness Can’t escape this loneliness Swallowed by that bitter sound, Jingle Bells I can still see you standing there Blowing out that little flame A dream I chased so long, gone up in smoke Broken apart and all alone Buried deep in piles of snow, nothing but icy cold regret Sayonara, silent night You drift away, sleeping in arms that aren’t mine, Warm and dry, so safe and so happy Sayonara, holy night I’ll go to bed, this loser, this lonely lump of coal Just a sad-sack Santa Claus And on this eve, tell me please, will my words ring above? Sayonara ever more, Silent Love (silent love…)

[@microwavehelicopter2708]

My headcanon is that the cinematic is canon, and it's a dumb job that the Daidoji forced Joryu to do, after it's done he just sat there and pondered what the hell he Daidoji just made him do.

[@tecmangames69]

as always yakuza ost never dissapointing!

[@SirHellNaja]

The MV kinda reminds me of myself lol Everyone else's got to do something else with their couples. New Year, Valentine, White Day, Summer Festival, Halloween, Christmas. And here, me, working my ass to earn some money just to drink alone somewhere quietly. But seeing him selling cakes on the street while nobody cares kinda hit me right in the feeling more. I've never sell stuffs on the streets, but when I see people selling things on a cold night, I always stop by to buy some from them, especially the ones that couldn't sell at all, or from kids or old people.

[@Gigi-zr6hp]

yeah, same feeling for me. I feel bad seeing Kiryu/Joryu trying his best to sell discounted goods on christmas eve with that costume.bInstead of enjoying it like regular couples. Barely anyone even stops to buy his goods despite all his efforts which is sad to see. Edit: After finding out the english translation makes it even more somber

[@electro3715]

Same feeling for me.I am a student but with a hard life back from path.Phsocologially i am getiing older fast son i cant make a new friends or relationship with guys from my university.This gonna be my third new year that i am gonna spend alone without my family.Dont know why just cant find someone like me in country where i study.Maybe i am too serious maybe i am always in elegant suit(About 10 years i am wearing serious suit,now just trying some yakuza style suit) Maybe because i am really gettin older fast however i am 21 years old.I think that song gonna be great for a new year.Ecpeciaaly for a lonely guy like me 🚬

[@bryanchristianabrigo]

I want to hug y'all guys 😭

[@lars-akechesburg9911]

​@@electro3715you're still young buddy, I found my best friends at 25.

[@SirHellNaja]

​@@electro3715 You're still in your early 20's, you still have a long way to go. It's never too late to make a friend, but the same cannot be said for getting a lover though. As long as you're not in your mid 30's yet, you're still fine with finding a girlfriend. If you think that people people around you doesn't like your fashion style, try adapting it to people of your age where you live, also adapt it to your characteristic and appearance as well. Or you can just let it all go and wear whatever you want like me. Eventually, if you start hanging out around more people, there will be people who'll appreciate your style. During my first semester with new kids in a new college (I was a 3rd year when I dropped out), I've struggled to befriend anyone there as well. Because everything there just sucks, especially college kids' sense of fashion, and they're all newly graduated high school kids who didn't know a thing about life, unlike me, who had been working long enough that just a bit less than 2 more years and I'll get a degree in my field. It's not until that I started dressing up nicely and putting on some make ups occassionally that people started to see me on a brighter side, not just a grumpy sergeant dude. Some girls in the classes even noticed that I've put on some cosmetics. I think the turning points of it all was when I put all I had into entertaining the class with the tiny pinch of leftover ameteur idol skill I used to have, and the one time we had a video filming assignment. Maybe find a strong point of yourself and use it to show what you have without trying too hard and hurt yourself when you tried too hard and gain nothing. I also was seperated from my best friend for 3 years, was forced to live alone for 2 years, and now I'm no longer in the same town as them to take them to an izakaya and have a drink anymore because of a stupid decision. If you have a chance to make a change, do it now. Don't let it all go to waste. Don't forget to play substory OST while reading this.

[@Izaya13]

This is a new yakuza karaoke classic.

[@Ben0zen0]

1:07 part slaps

[@thecardusguy5610]

I think this might be my favorite karaoke song in the entire franchise, even surpassing hands, today is a diamond, judgment and baka mitai. So, so good.

[@gullyweaver1714]

I actually like this more than Baka Mitai.

[@Brightsonp]

Its a tough choice but i think i prefer this song solely because i already hear baka mitai countless time that its become bland to my ear. I dont know the correct term, its still good but not as enjoyable as my first experience. Edit: ah, i mean boredom

[@knightartorias8755]

You're burned out. Burned out by a song.

[@latchkeyTK]

I think because Baka Mitai is about a man who blames himself for a failed relationship while this song talks about a man who have to let go of a girl through no faults of himself

[@just1randomguy658]

​@@Brightsonp That's the double-edged sword of iconic. It's good, but you hear and see it so often that you can no longer really appreciate it. Baka Mitai's awesome and I like it, but I never listen to it more than once or twice at a time. It's usually the less memed songs that I put on repeat and jam to. Like, when people listen to Megalovania or All-Star now, they're never like: "Hey, this music good." They're like: "Haha, this meme." It indirectly devalues it. It makes me sad to know people devote a lot to things that are rarely seen as more than something to laugh at. It's no one's fault and I'm not mad at anyone, it just sucks to see, y'know?
