死神 - Mori Calliope (Cover) original by 米津玄師

[@MoriCalliope]

本物の死神が 「アジャラカモクレンテケレツノパー 」なんて言えない。。。というわけで、もちろんちょっと言い間違えたのだが。。。。w (sorry for bad Japanese, JP bros)

[@misuzu_JPneki]

死神を祓う言葉だからね。。 It's a Japanese rakugo word that exorcises the god of death…

[@sleeplessotaku4688]

ah, so this is the reason why shinigami goes away after you clap twice and chant it

Shinigami quits being a shinigami so she can sing shinigami, featuring shinigami.

[@Yomikey01]

Somehow, unexpectedly, this comment has filled me with motivation

[@kaikz7398]

Don't forget the part where Shinigami kill Shinigami so Shinigami can take Shinigami's life, featuring Shinigami.

ホロライブ内でこの曲にピッタリなのが落語家見習いのらでんちゃんと死神のカリオペ！ その二人が知ってか知らずか二日連続で死神を歌ってみたで出してくれるとは！最高かよ！

[@kawazu_ya]

For those who don’t know, this song is actually based on a Rakugo performance (a traditional Japanese storytelling art) called "Shinigami/死神." The story's about a down-and-out guy who gets a deal from a Shinigami, makes some quick cash, brags about it, and then realizes he’s been tricked-his own life flame has gone out. It's pretty cool how Kenshi Yonezu turned this Rakugo into a song. The Rakugo itself is awesome too, and if you’re curious, you can find a video of this exact Rakugo performance with English subtitles on KZbin.

[@ghannawi13]

Speaking of Rakugo, Raden from Re:Gloss, whose whole lore is she's a Rakugo, just put out a cover of Shinigami as well. Like, less than a day ago. So its kinda hilarious in a way that the Rakugo and the Shinigami both put out a cover of the same song

[@kawazu_ya]

@@ghannawi13 Ah yes, she did. Now we got both a Rakugoka and a Shinigami covered a song based on a Rakugo called Shinigami lol

[@JL_Loki]

​@@kawazu_ya I like Raden singing it. She improved so much.

[@dryadknotwood6150]

@@ghannawi13 Speaking further on Rakugo, there's a manga called Akane-banashi that the latest 3 chapters (123-125) that covered a performance of Shinigami

Man. I've found myself having a hard time truly 100% vibing with many of Calli's songs (I think it's that my preference in music is just slightly too far off from her preferences), but the way this one focuses on her vocal quality just feels... perfect. I love all how many unique different alterations were done to keep all the textures different even in the same phrases note-wise. The slight growls, the fry, the glottal constrictions, etc. & the mixing and matching of those as well. Just excellent execution on a piece which I find to be exceptionally fitting for her tone quality.

[@Yenrei]

I'd always hoped you'd do a studio cover of this one. You'll never guess why. That aside, you picked the best number of years to cap off with it. Great stuff, Calli. Happy 4 years, and here's to 4 more!

[@retro-capybara]

This cover is the first time I'm hearing 死神 and the concept is so cool, a rakugo story turned into song! I liked your soft-spoken tone slowly building in intensity at 1:29 (when the MC is holding their own life in their hands I assume). Great cover!
