This comment is as gold as P4G
Kinda interesting how this song was written before social media was as big as it is today.
gotta love the golden comments like this one that surpass 100 likes before having a single reply
Not just the song but the entire game as well felt like a warning about the harm social media would have.
Like a certain conversation in metal gear solid 2
@@rcbswa4667 been least a decade since I last played that one. You referring to the end of the game when your talking to the colonel but you really arent?
@@hersh1138 it could just be referring to media as in news on tv and all that since that was still around and relatively big at the time
No one's talking about how this song's basically about how people and their truths are being erased by the constant flux of media, and to break away from it to "pursue the truth".
This is why i love the persona series everyone can like a bit of this amazing series on their own way. Also im blown away by the philosophical and psychoanalytical themes on each of the series that tie to the plot neatly
Yeah the theme about not blindly accepting what mainstream media tells you goes super under looked when people talk about P4
@@mrdarknut9266 yup at least where i live the news are used to promote politics blindly and also to promote the trending stuff sprinkled in with the current murders of the day. Thats why i rly dont follow many local news sources where i live because they always have to add politics or a selfish goal to gain popularity or money in the end.
Valkry X825 I think main stream media is a big no at this point, especially considering how much access the world has to less biased sources
@@mrdarknut9266 agreed 100%
Atlus: Writes this song about not losing yourself in media
Also Atlus: Creates the Persona series
I think its more about TOO much media, rather media in general. If you try to understand and analyze everything you'll lose yourself

It's the opposite. If you allow yourself to follow only what people tell you rather than follow your own instincts, you'll lose your sense of self and become no different from the masses.
@@Bread-mf8buaged like milk into a fine Parmesan
I've listened to a lot of great music since I've first heard this song so long ago, but I have not come across a line that hits me as hard as "we're all trapped in a maze of relationships, life goes on with or without you" SO GOOD
NAH YOU ARE SO RIGHT
LITERALLY IM LIKE 😭 MY GODDDD
I SWIM IN THE SEA OF THE UNCONCIOUSSSSSS
Each time someone likes this comment, i will listen to this song once.
Go ahead and listen to it again buddy also check out reach out to the truth
172 * 3 Minutes and 2 seconds comes out to 31,304 seconds, or in more understandable terms, 521 Minutes/8 Hours of nothing but Perusing Your True Self. Good luck my friend, you'll have more than enough time for self reflection lmfao.

Bro you good?😂
alone, i wasnt listening to the thoughts of the universe.The thoughts of the universe listened to me. the darkness looked at me, yet i didnt blink.
"Life goes on with or without you"
"It's hard to feel your real emotions.
You are smiling in a shirt wet with bitter tears"
I've made a sweater of tears
Shit gets too real
Im at the house like carpet
You can always tell a PERSONA song!
True it has this retro feel to it plus the title of the song is a big give away
tbh you can narrow down which game just by hearing it lol
what
i literally heard 2 seconds of this on a discord video and already knew it was persona
@@ultimidultimate7839 at least past P3, P1, P2 EP and IS are pretty close to each other to tell apart without having a emotional bond to each song
The fact that this didn't get in Smash saddens me ;(
I got you th-cam.com/video/P8WpGMmsJB8/w-d-xo.html
@June because it's not about just adding a song from a game it's about also making the song action packed so that fits a fighting game. That's why fatal fury works so well. Also have you listened to the soundtrack? It's amazing!
@@deshaunfortune912 Well, The Roost from Animal Crossing was a soundtrack, maybe it's more than just being fast-paced
@@deshaunfortune912 still that doesn't explain why stuff like i don't know a certain burning of breads didn't get in?
At least we got 3 P4 tracks.

OH GOD
"Ketchup rains all over the world"
You need better speakers.
@@namenotfound8747 *your kidding, right?*
holy shit you have gotten me to think it sounds like that, I wanna go back to a life before I retained this knowledge
"We are trapped in a maze of relationships"
*Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth foreshadowing*
That cannonly happen in persona 3
If Aigis had a nickel for every time she was stuck in a labyrinth, she'd have three nickels- which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened thrice.
omg its the real decalogics from twitter omg
@@NrXJupiter am i that popular?
@@pentagonyx yeah you are
I have to thank this game for breaking me out of my comfort zone.
Same here
P3: reasons to live
P4: who are you?
P5: dont let others ruin your life and your loved ones
I had severe depression in high school and my grades were really going to the marianna trenches. But then i played P 3,4 and 5 and by miracle i found the strength to live again. Now i'm in engineering school doing great.
The persona games are more than just that. They are lessons that open your eyes to the world.

This was my most viewed song for this year I listened to this 113 times according to TH-cam’s recap thing
Where can you see that? I need to know!!!
@@smarrtie2571if you use youtube music itll give it to you around the same time as spotify wrapped
The song without the lyrics: Expectations of the game, wondering why it’s so jolly and M-rated
With the lyrics: The reality and “truth,” shocking the player of how characters get emotional
great vegetables
rated m because of mara
For some reason I headcanon that every vocal track in P4 and Golden was either written by or covered by Rise at some point in her career.
I have a simular headcannon with persona 5 but its that the phantom thieves wrote all the songs themselves. Like joker and Ruiji wrote the songs and Ann sung them
My persona 3 headcannon is that Koromaru sang all the songs
@@sufyaanbulbulia4455my headcannon is they all preexisted and the protag uses their portable toaster to play them
@velvetbutterfly haha with the new P3 opening, that may be the case. If so, the protags have great taste in music 😂
Look at Teddie eyes it reminds me of villager from animal crossing even the smile look evil. 😂😂😂
SmuFace1up that’s cuz teddies is lucifer
How dare. Teddie is a pure innocent bear and I won't tolerate you doin him dirty
Teddie is horny
FACS
oh my god you just made him look scarier
I absolutely love this song to the point where I listen to it every day.
Same Here it Goes And to remind yourself to just be you do you
do you still do it
@@marrowyoutube I guess we'll never know
@PhoenixWrightAceAttorney we still don't know
@@PhoenixWrightAceAttorneycan confirm I am still on my daily streak of listening to this absolute banger.
This is so aesthetically pleasing
(Not gonna lie, the line "Life goes on with or without you" is something EVERYONE should remember at some point. But you shouldn't feel down and bad about yourself when you hear it. All it's saying is: "Life goes on regardless of who you are, but that doesn't mean you should stop living your life. Just find out who you are, what you wanna do with your life that brings you happiness, and keep on going. It ain't over yet!"
-JJ Boreal)
I thought it was
"we're all trumpet, in a maze of relationships"
also I still think that would still be acceptable to replace trapped
Honestly I can only hear the word relationships
And I thought "I search for your heart" was "I search for YoRHa". Damn Nier Automata
"We all trumping amazing relationships" is what I heard at first
We're all trumpet now
I LITERALLY HEARD THIS AS READING THIS, WHAT THE HELL
this song is great for opening your internal eye to lean thinking, and it’s really catchy
"W E A R E L I V I N G O U R L I V E S"
not the p3 protag tho-
l'm scrolling happily here and thanks to you I'm sobbing

smh teddie you look like you haven't slept for months u ok bro
no he die
oh
龍秋田 he looks dead inside
The whole thing is empty! :O
He snorted too much crack.
"It's hard to feel your real emotions
You are smiling in a shirt wet with bitter tears."
I've never paid attention to the extended lyrics and ugh! Damn you Atlus! Now my shirt is wet!
Ar least you're smiling though
Still a banger to this day
Downright discovering who I truly am and growing as a person from the experience and accepting who I am.
WHO DISLIKED THIS MASTERPIECE?
Adachi.
Teddie Oh snap.
Teddie I Luv u really

What says on 0:40 " Get up on your feet, tear down the walls, catch a glimpse of the hollow world"
What I heard: "CALIFORNIA POTATO POWERS! KETCHUP RAINS ALL OVER THE WOOOOORLD!"What says on 0:57 " we're all trapped in a maze of relationships"

Now I can’t unhear 0:57

I heard Get up on your fatigue down the worlds...getcha glee him all the whole world. Somethin round down will get you nowhere...you looked up in your mind 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sorry her English is HORRENDOUS good singing voice, the track is slamming tho.
now i cant unsee this.
Directly after relationshit; it's supposed to say life goes on with or without you, but i hear "niggas with or without jews"
"We're all trapped in a maze of relationships, Life goes on with or without you."
That's some deep ass lyrics for a Persona track lol. I guess it makes sense since the whole game is about finding out who you truly are.

Beary good engrish there

Get up on your feet, tear down the walls
Catch a glimpse of the hollow world
Snooping 'round town will get you nowhere

We're all trapped in a maze of relationships
Life goes on with or without you
I swim in the sea of the unconscious
I search for your heart, pursuing my true self
Get up, get up, it's time to get real
Can't control the steering wheel, outside is in a veil
Of mystery Won't get out so easily
We are living our lives, and we realize what's happening
Hey Brother, watch yourself
Grab your things, Don't miss your chance
Find your own rhythm
And dance your own dance
Be creative Chart your course
You must know what lies ahead
Driving through the deep end of the ocean
Leaving obscurity
You are standing in the middle of another world
It's hard to feel your real emotions
You are smiling in a shirt wet with bitter tears
Let me help you find a place to call it home
We're all trapped in a maze of relationships
Life goes on with or without you
I swim in the sea of the unconscious
I search for your heart, pursuing my true self

Young Gamer Plays ikr? What’s the point of adding lyrics if the video is a lyric video? Smh
Thanks man I like better to read the lyrics on the comments than to read them on the video

If someone is dissing the Soviet buildings, you should specify that they are the quick-built type buildings of the latter half of its existence. *They* are crappy.

@@gamermoment9927 I prefer them this way, easier to follow along
Using the persona games ost's for studying and shiny hunting. Good times these!
I still prefer this as the intro to Persona 4, it fits the themes of truth and gossip with the media far better
Everyone gangsta still those first piano notes hit
bangerrrrrrrr
indeed
woah this is a really hard song to sing, but it is so damn good.
Bro why do I relate to the Lyrics and why do they hit so hard
It's because it's a song about the information age and everyone taking part in the internet will connect to the meaning
I only hope the inevitable Persona 4 remake keeps this as the intro song
Ikr
maybe this song will be remain but it is not as an intro. Can't wait if Persona 4 Remake / Reload really issue by ATLUS.
Love this song
P4AU REMAKE HERE WE GO BOYS
Whoever dislikes this probably likes watching paint dry
I can't hear the beginning without hearing "THATS A LOT O' NUTS"
I prefer Pursuing My True Self over Shadow World…and P4G was my entry point to 4.
4 people got screw by their shadow

143 people are now dead bodies on telephone poles.
Change the word "remote" to "screen" or "phone" and "double clicking" to "swiping and scrolling" it's even more relevant in today's life.
I mean, you could argue it's still the same. It's a remote access tool for media. And touching apps or links or what have you is the same as doubleclicking them on a PC. Heck, some phones even have a double-tap feature to avoid accidentally pressing things
thanx!! Awesomeness in one song ^_^

Tbh I dind't even notice the engrish. This song is pretty good anyway
Life goes on with or without you
At 0:44 it does not sound like she says “walls” I hear “worlds” lol.

*KETCHUP RAINING ALL OVER THE WORLD*
Tear down the Whirls.
California potato powers, ketchup rains on the whole world.
0:41 "California potato power, ketchup rains on the whole world."
You think that the investigation team becomes the type of parents that let there kid watch only 30 minutes of TV?
They would probably let their kids hang out with friends after 8, so that's a plus
Hey timmy, make sure you hang out billy tonight and answer his questions specifically.
What the lyrics actually are: Get up on your feet, tear down the walls

I haven't listened to this since August 2021 bro
Y’all saying you didn’t know it’s English when the singer clearly was singing clear as fuck
To be fair, when it gets to the “come on, let go of the remote” part, the singing becomes less clear.
