@@Naymoo Yes, Ink Me up as well as Shark Bytes in addition to the splatfest themes in 2, Fly Octo Fly and MAYBE but not sure Calamari Inkantation played in the Final Fest
The Final Fest was split into 3 days. Day 1 had the usual splatfest songs, plus Shark Bytes and Ink Me Up. Day 2 only played Spicy Calamari Inkantation. Day 3 introduced the final Shifty Station and had Fly, Octo Fly playing everywhere.
I remember when i was younger. It was a Saturday morning. Me and my brother Aaron Would play splatoon while there was a splatfest going on. When we went to the splatfest, This song Would just play in our heads. And we were dancing to it. We were in 1st Grade now we’re entering 8th.
@@dobbobdaflob57 yeah but it don't have the squid sister cheering depending on the team that is currently winning, it's a small detail but it makes the song far more special and felt like you weren't playing any random tuef wars

One of my favorite songs of the 3 games, Me and my mom play splatoon on Wii U, in the weekends I gone to my fathers house and ALWAYS when I play the game, a splatfest was going on, so I remember this song perfectly.
@@Explosher i always loved the splatfests so much because of this song. splatoon 3's splatfest music BARELY compares, and i've come to terms with the fact that no idol group will ever top the squid sisters' music.
Not gonna lie, I like the squid sisters splatfest songs WAYYY more than off the hooks, this includes the ones that play during battles, when you win or lose, and now or never Edit: Now that splatoon 3 is out and we have a taste of deep cuts splatfest music... I think I like deep cut more now, altough ink me up still definitely beats fins in the air I love both the squids sisters and deep cuts splatfest music so much (sorry off the hook)
I never had a Wii U and never got to experience the first Splatoon, but thanks for the memories. I loved watching videos of people playing this game. Rest in peace (2015-2024)
Hey there buddy, Do you like our song? 'Cause your shouting, shouting how you wanna play with me! Hey there buddy, jump in with the beat when you all, win the battle! Hey! x6 As long as I have you, no we don't want anymore, no we don't want to go home. Oh looking out at you, I need you with me there, when we're using these moves. And if that is all we have Don't owe me a thing, Nothing at all. I guess we really, really made it. Oh yeah we really, really knew you'd go. Yeah! I didn't make these lyrics and I know the real lyrics are nonsensical, but this is what I always hear when this amazing song plays so yeah. Does anyone else hear at least some of this or is it just me?
Damn, I wish I was old enough to appreciate the splatfests of this game while they were around. Because now I just wish I participated in more of them. Edit for like 5 days before grand fest: I bought splatoon 3 and now that this song is in the setlist for the fest I think I’m gonna fuckin cry when I hear this ngl
I didn’t participate in splatoon 2’s final Splatfest so I never got to hear this in battles 😞 (nor shark bytes, fly octo fly and calamari inkantation for that matter)
@@peedrinker5000 It actually did play in the final fest. On day one they played Ink Me Up and Shark Bytes, on day two they played Calamari Inkantation, and on day three they played Fly Octo Fly.
fanmade lyrics by me !! Rainbow tentacles don't matter to me 'cause the only color I adore is you, you, you Red, green, yellow -- the only color I want is you You and your hue Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! (Paint me your hue) My world is black and white, so paint with all the neons 'till my troubles are gone (Paint me your hue) Boy, you're a work of art; I haven't captured your attention, but you've captured my heart (Paint me your hue) I wanna be your girl, wanna write your signature in my ink (Paint me your hue) Just say the word and don't let me down Just ink me up before the time runs out Out
IMO the lyrics can make more sense (and be more creative) when its a fanmade translation/eng cover(?) instead of only using what sounds like the squid language other than that its just personal preference i think :) nothing rlly bad about the other ones either, just LOVE these
@@R4TS_KZZK how do you know its a branding sticker? also all of the fandom agrees its a parental advisory sticker. do you see anyone backing up your claims?
@@yunataco No but 1. It's in a *different language* beyond comprehension so there's no way to tell what it says. 2. They don't *look* like that. 3.

I cannot believe that it's been 7 months since Wii U and 3DS online services got shut down.. I heard this song during the Grand Festival and I felt a punch of nostalgia and happiness at the same time! (Despite the fact that I never played Splatoon or Splatoon 2. I only got Splatoon 3 this summer). ❤
I miss Splatoon 1 with its OP sniper guns and equipment effects. The only shooter I ever liked and engaged in enough to play ranked 'till I was in the upper tiers; all with chargers and splatlings. I used to equip the stealth shirt and along with gear that had several speed buffs for swimming and jumping, and one damage up. It made the perfect stealth/ambush build since I could swim either slightly faster or slower than normal and then exit via seeker or jumping. I wish the wiiu pad was usable in the sequels, I like them but I miss having instant access to the map and jumping. I also wish more shooters adapted Splatoon's aiming scheme for controllers, I think they'd be more engaging and accurate.
You know it's kind of weird the fact that when I listen to splatoon 1 music I get nostalgia but the craziest thing is I never played splatoon 1 never in my life while I wish I could but i what's too young to
Be my buddy, believe in me and we’ll go a-jumping jumping up into our destiny Be my buddy, believe that with your problems won’t Really matter Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

You and me are ready to jump to write this song Got a shiny shiny rhythm on the way We need dancing and such but not a scene when we're up... We need battles (Hey hey hey) (Give it your all) So ink me up and do what you already know and we already know (Go and move fast) But don't be slow and do what you're really really good at Though, don't be too fast (Feeling hot now) And if you want to choose win then go on kid, and ink up that wall (But you're a true fan) You stand a really pretty chance (and a good team) This is a really gritty battle Come get some Hah!

I played only one Splatfest on Splat 1, so this was practically almost new
Dude SAME, this song, Blushing Tide, and Shark Bytes . I’ve always been a major Splatoon fan but was never able to do Splatfests

it just hit me that its been almost 8 years since splatoon 1 came out. am i that old already?

thank you for everything splatoon 1, the memories.
2015-2024
I was internally screaming while having the dumbest smile on my face when I heard this during grandfest. Felt like 2015 again.
The nostalgia…
I don’t think I’ve ever heard this song before but it is a certified banger 😎
Ink me up is probably my favorite original splatoon song next to the inkantation I really hope this is in the dlc
was so hyped they played this at grand festival
omg I saw you in anarchy and thought "damn this name feels familiar"
Omg I'm famous now 😆
0:45 Best part.
I’m so happy you have these
For some reason this song feels nostalgic even though I have never played Splatoon
Well you should give it a try. unless if you're meaning the first game

So nostalgic I felt physically sick
You good?

this slapped so hard
nostalgia blast...
