Lyrics:
Everyday with rain, anata to
Everyday with rain, futari de
Everyday with rain, katamete
Am I gonna wake up with smile?
I who laughed like a child,
Believe, anata dake...
We are lonely that is why loving
Ame no naka de odoru
Gonna make a journey to find Happiness
Sou ai no kaori, come to me
Here the wind blow, sekai wo
Here the wind blow, futari de
Here the wind blow, katameru
Am I gonna wake up with smile?
I who laughed like a child,
Believe, futari dake...
We are lonely that is why loving
Tsuki no hikari abite
Gonna make a journey to find Happiness
Sou amai kaori, come to me
Everyday with rain, anata to
Everyday with rain, futari de
Everyday with rain, katamete
Am I gonna wake up with smile?
I who laughed like a child,
Believe, anata dake...
We are lonely that is why loving
Ame no naka de odoru
Gonna make a journey to find Happiness
Sou ai no kaori, come to me
We are lonely that is why loving
Tsuki no hikari abite
Gonna make a journey to find Happiness
Sou amai kaori, come to me

[@fishsquire]

Unbelievable blend of bossa, french folk, vocal pop, and nu-jazz.

[@TytoAlpha]

and 4x4 uk garage

[@ascan1363]

It’s really the whole package

[@jepadee.aka.99soju]

@Floyd '8 cough cough cafe

[@cooldebt]

@Floyd '8 Very Piazzolla-like indeed

[@liljainanna]

The wonders of shibuya kei

[@nebuluos2032]

Years ago I was dozing off as my nephew and niece played this insane game but when this song came on it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever heard from a video game at the time and that awakened me.

[@NanoCharat]

This song is... sitting alone on a hill overlooking a busy city at night. It's early summer, and the fireflies have just come out.

[@nebuluos2032]

A shooting star silently streaks down just out of the corner of your eye and you notice it just in time before it disappears into oblivion..like a last knowing wink at you, it's only witness forever.

[@TommyLuv]

Yup! The Feels!

[@etheygum1073]

And some kid starts complaining about the dark and how it’s to dark to study…

[@vital2774]

and dipp dancing

[@serenegenerally]

Well, it is played during the fireflies level

[@thebarbaryghostsf]

You should check out the bands Mellow, Pizzicato Five, Air, and Nouvelle Vague if you dig this sound.

[@michaeloconnor9581]

Thank you

[@voyan38]

Lamp and FPM too

[@rj_hooks]

BET

[@warningdontread5478]

Cymbals too, especially "Endless, endless." from the album sine

[@kap1117]

also check out Free Tempo

[@bethmoth22]

I love how this song is very soft and scerene up until at around 4:13 then one simple beat really ups the overall vibe. It's so great

[@banjogyro]

I love how the beat is so late into the song so you get caught offguard everytime and just happy it happened

[@ColevLost]

When you're at 4:14 and your katamari isn't even "very bright", yet. ROLL, PRINCE, ROLL!

[@Bnuuy_syndrom]

I recently bought We Love Katamari Reroll and this song has been playing a lot in the levels I've been completing and it's one of my favorites out of the soundtrack so far. Gotta be one of my favorite game series with amazing soundtracks

[@0birthya972]

everyday with rain ,, sweats, ,, i always thought it was saying "everyday we play"

[@hiimemily]

The song was already a masterpiece, and then the percussion kicks in to put it over the top. To this day, still the best song in the Katamari series, and that's really saying something.

[@glasschu213]

All time favorite katamari song. Makes me think of fireflies and candlelight dinners. :)

[@Rexdino12321]

these are one of my favorite songs in the series too!

[@TheNoirAlien]

glasschu213 This is on my playlist.

[@toooydoeur]

Lonely rolling star

[@amirakitty]

Man this songs makes me want to sit outside at a café while it gentle rains over the streets of Paris and people hustle and bustle by to get shelter.

[@TheNoirAlien]

Done it.

[@kureshu1327]

As someone living in Paris, I'm so happy to be able to experience that

[@eltiolavara9]

and then they charge you like 10 euros for a cup

[@theedwardian]

Paris is no longer Paris. French culture lives on only in the imaginations of Japan, the south islands of Korea, and to a lesser extent, Italy.

[@PeachyKitsune]

Everytime i hear this song it makes me terribly love sick. I hope someone else has the same feels as me.

[@Astrodisiac]

OMG, me too! Even though im always single

[@Dogan_TM]

I just think it sounds nice ._.

[@Astrodisiac]

Cae Rule Oh my galaxy, thats HORRIBLE! But it helps appreciate the song much more. i can easily see this.

[@Glace1221]

Cae Rule Jesus, right in the feels.

[@AdiCool88]

Neku Sakuraba I feel your feels, my feeling friend.

[@MechakittenX]

I played this song on my car stereo the other day and the Bassline popped out making this song even more awesome! If you haven't heard the bass line in this song yet I highly recommend it!!

[@Kaoren717]

We are lonely that is why loving, tsuki no hikari.....abite.... 3:02 I love this part, with the violin, accordian/bandoneon, ahh...so smooth....

[@HeruruMeruru]

I hate how the level always ends before the song starts getting fast paced.

[@10N-t5b]

im a huge fan of an anime called angel beats. in it there's a song called, well. rain song. that's the name exactly. i love it. i made a typo and stumbled upon this. and i am now in LOVE.

[@theedwardian]

I love how this song amps up after the 4 minute mark

[@chiigirl93]

i love the memories that come with this song. me and my best friend used to play this level over and over trying to work the two player mode, yelling at each other. they were the best moments of my childhood.

[@Airship86]

Well over a decade later, I realized that the singer in one of my favorite songs in one of my favorite games ever is YOU, who is also one of my favorite commentators in one of my favorite TV shows, Terrace House. Small world, eh?

[@GoGoSuperB]

I'm just now realizing that too!! I knew her from Gottsu Ee Kanji, a Japanese variety show and Terrace House as well!

[@thebarbaryghostsf]

I used to play the firefly level over and over again just to hear this amazing song. The first two Katamari's have some of the best J-Pop music ever.

[@Angelrain890]

This song is where I got my user name from

[@idiot5089]

I didn't!

[@agapefaith]

this song is one one the best songs ive ever heard in my 22 years of life🙂

[@Servbot42]

I played this song once with a woman I was deeply in love with. Hearing it only makes me sad now.

[@arizona8228]

this makes me feel very happy, nostalgic, and sad at the same time

[@RicksterLPs]

The fact you hear this at the first stage of the game really sets you up on how amazing this games music is. It got me hooked instantly when I first played We Love Katamari ^.^

[@Glace1221]

That's some really beautiful Engrish. Too beautiful.

[@scarfycoolcat]

Freddy haha!

[@trashgoon]

4:14 switch up to UK garage absolutely eats

[@terrenceojeda4790]

4:11 and onward, best part.

[@Jhsgei48362]

I love Katamaris version of this freaked me out so much as a kid

[@MegaTheman25]

Just got done beating this level for the first time ever. So beautiful man...

[@irasavage1162]

Shout outs to the accordion player!! He nuked off on the second half of the song.

[@mwkmn]

Still just as smooth as the first time I heard it

[@rj_hooks]

I remember playing this level over and OVER just to hear this song :')

[@jaomello]

Dude, awesome pic, insane quality. Thx for the post

[@clrndalvare]

It's raining right now, this is perfect.

[@TDashLIVE]

4:44 I recognized this drum sample from Mario Kart Wii when you'd wait for an online race to end

[@stuv1996]

Goosebumps every time

[@Heroshii15]

It's really romantic at the begginning and then get's more up-beat later ramdomly, I guess it's to be expected in katamari

[@massmentalpollution]

thanks for uploading this ost i couldnt find it anywhere else

[@kap1117]

Damn I wish the beat kicked in a lot earlier or that the song was even longer because its so good from 4:45 onwards (not to say the rest isnt good)

[@banjogyro]

It makes it feel special, it makes you value that moment everytime you listen to the song

[@pockypocky6000]

This is my favorite song on We Love Katamari. :D

[@Tigerman9001]

I discovered this only 5 minutes ago. It's my new favorite soundtrack. Thanks!

[@lyleabner2475]

This song make me cry for some reason

[@wa7saka]

Absolutely beautiful

[@gooman989898]

an extremely good blend of different music genres. uplifting and relaxing simultaneously.... 5 stars -the gooman review

[@banjogyro]

[@mayeyo185]

Thank you gooman

[@Miabia1000]

[@alvinedgardtoding572]

[@danielanaimor]

One of the best musics ever!! :D

[@cloud7fr]

If you like this, check out Yuu Miyake. He is the composer, also worked for ridge racer, tekken.

[@obw1r3d]

love this song so much. can't get enough of it. thanks

[@mecasunny]

It's so beautiful!!

[@Lunastar2005]

Wow just realized the Artist that sings this song is in that Japanese movie Nobody Knows. She played the mother who abandons her children.

[@franciscobarril]

i want to hear this with a sound system with extra bass

[@bethmoth22]

I did that the other day, highly recommend!

[@pkm54]

when i hear this song i am in paris or italy or perhaps on a boat

[@snowlover9]

Listening to this while raining is soothing....sorta xD

[@Kirbychu1]

This song feels very different when you're single.

[@nicksbrown1994]

I love this song so much I want this in my wedding

[@siIIylittlegoof]

[@Chameleam]

Gonna make a journey to find a happiness

[@stuv1996]

So much beauty :')

[@Dogan_TM]

Sounds very nice!

[@Loyyid]

1:12 I love the part when she says "I'm not a donkey", best part

[@juanariful]

oooor, you could play the elephant level (19 minutes) and choose this song...

[@AnimaUSA]

This is like the continuation to "Katamaritano". I may of spelled that wrong.

[@TytoAlpha]

i will close my first boiler room set with this track i swear to god

[@davidperry4013]

We Love Katamari is the video game that got me into J-Pop.

[@accioclownery]

I found this song in a Paris nail art tutorial by Janelle Estep, and it was without lyrics. Can someone help me to find this version? Thanks 😍😘

[@snowtenkey118]

im into the song for the discoteque drop xD

[@getiatrickpatrick8917]

Matt's Watson work tunes are gud

[@alexmark6580]

It turns into a Mario kart Wii type beat after 4 mins

[@HostClubOtaku94]

Let's go roll up some fireflies!!!! Wooo!

[@jamirosat]

me encanta esta canción (buena imagen jiji)

[@darkzzii]

i love this song, i listen to it alot. :/

[@Skullssy]

Thanks Hazel

[@07flaugh]

I agree totally.

[@Kahran042]

I like to do it on the "million roses" mission.

[@KieraCarty]

Want it played at my wedding =3

[@inlazlowetrust]

That bandoneon player would make Astor Piazzolla proud. The same can't be said for the Engirsh-ridden lyrics, though.

[@kaibomo]

to be honest I think clean bandit was inspired by the 4:44 onward part in ,,rather be''. the beat and the strings remind me of it

[@banjogyro]

I like to imagine that the drum beat in 4:11 is the thumbnail yellow creature beatboxing

[@Clifffields]

*camera cuts to my ass turning up in 8th grade pretending to know the words*🤣🤣🤣No ive always loved this soundtrack❤❤❤❤

[@RoboLANE]

I’m just picturing this song playing while Ozy beats up The Comedian

[@JR-iy6hy]

yesssssssss

[@TheNoirAlien]

4:14......spin around like crazy!

[@MetalGearRaxis]

@VernianProcess Same! :D Loved it ^-^

[@akasataw]

塊フォーエヴァー　フランス式結婚したのよ

[@puddingosu3326]

love this song

[@gofffremon9812]

DAM I FORGOT HOW HARD THIS WAS

[@dippkun]

@VernianProcess omg me too...it was always the most beautiful level and song

[@kronzal]

I like'd it!

[@cloud7fr]

@KJaishiteru96 Take the name of the composer: Yū Miyake (三宅 優 Miyakeyuu)

[@chuckporter9526]

So, go with me on this: This song is the soundtrack to the first night a young couple spend with each other. The romantic vibe is there, but one -- or both -- of the parties are tryhards and they're making it kinda awkward. But the awkwardness is definitely couched not just in affection, but sexual attraction -- in fact, the awkwardness is possibly another attractive factor? "I'm tired of the ones that take themselves so seriously, but this one's a goofball and I love it." Eventually the awkwardness kinda melts away, as they slowly allow themselves to be with one another. Still some bumps along the way, but they never lose the vibe with each other. The cutest sex scene ever. At least in my book.

[@KJaishiteru96]

who sang this???? i dont know who to put in my ipod lol

[@DarkX64]

@ghostie7790 What is it instead? I coulda sworn it was "Everyday we play," as well.

[@PenguFluffs]

Ladies Code - Chaconne sounds like this too

[@tomhollandaise5835]

Im thinking of playing this on melodica

[@SyrilRam]

@VernianProcess I can attest to Air. They are great.

[@digitaldill]

3:40

[@JuicyPlams]

This + RainyMood,com

[@thekingofreyes3]

I'd love to hear this with French vocals it would be so perfect.

[@DarkX64]

thekingofreyes3 Any vocals that aren't what the song has now would be an abject improvement lmao. I love this song but the vocalist is it's weakest point imo, I have wanted to get someone to cover it

[@inphanta]

The Engrish is a big part of the charm for me.

[@stuv1996]

+inphanta I agree
