DAME DA NE. Yes. It's finally time to talk about Baka Mitai from Yakuza 0, from the perspective of a Music Producer, explained in a way that non-musicians can understand.
Is this song actually good, or is it popular just because of memes? Let's figure it out.
Surprisingly, there's lots of interesting music theory parallels between Yakuza and other games. And Lasagna.
Speaking of music theory, if you want to dive into this track even more technically, ‪@8bitMusicTheory‬ made a video about it too: • Baka Mitai Actually Sl...

I think the intentional layering on phrases like "I LOVE YOU" only for it to be followed by a single non layered note ("mo") from Kiryu really emphasizes the loneliness. Like there was once this huge backing of powerful emotions and now theres just this emptiness and seperation between the instrumentation and Kiryu, the build up repeats only to return back to that same emptiness. It's really moving.

From Asian perspective. This song is the best recreation of Asian's 80s - 90s song. Song like "Plastic Love" almost fall into this category (It's kind of more of late 90 styles thought). All the vocal, the music, the way it composed is bring me back to 5 YO me in the back seat of my dad car with his favorite cassette tapes playing his favorite songs over and over.

So harmonicas, at least here in the states, are associated with the miners and factory workers of old. As well as plantation slaves. So they've almost always been used as way for oppressed people to express themselves in popular media. So that might have something to do with how we interpret harmonicas today.

When you find the love of your life, and I mean genuinely THE one (whether friend, family, or a lover), just to have them no longer in your life is a devastating feeling. Knowing full well that those are and will be the best moments in your life is such a fleeting feeling. When you're in the moment with them it feels natural like this is what it's supposed to be but once it's over you realize just how special it was to feel in such naive bliss. Life is long and coping with the idea that you'll go the rest of your life without them is a hard truth to swallow. But it's important to be strong and carry on. If Kiryu fell into those feelings he wouldn't be the hero of his town and making everyone else experience their best moments in life. This song perfectly encapsulates all the themes and feelings Yakuza tries to talk about and I absolutely LOVE IT.

@DamienLunas 3 жыл бұрын

I think Alex's assessment is spot on. This is a song about expressing pain and regret, getting it all out, and moving on. It's kind of like someone talking about a painful memory, starting off kind of cold and sad, then they reach an emotional peak around the "Dame da ne" where the emotional pain is at its strongest. Then at the "Baka mitai" it's like they're still sad about it, but they feel a little better having acknowledged it and gotten it off their chest.

Lyrics: I've been a fool, and you've been childish You fell down, you got hurt chasing sweeter dreams Never could, hide the truth in your eyes That's how I knew, that smile was a lie "I love you" is Something you never say Couldn't get it out, always just pulled away So then why, please won't you tell me why You could find the words, to say goodbye I'm such a mess I'm lost, I'm no good at this I'm in love, still in love Still in love with you Hard as I try Can't even drink this pain away Memories of you, twisting my view I've been a fool. So, yeah, it sounds depressing and sad, because it very much is. Yakuza 0 was pretty much where Kiryu learned how unfit he is for the Yakuza lifestyle, setting up his near death in 1. Dude has it rough.

@jprec5174 3 жыл бұрын

That’s what makes kiryu’s story so deep and emotional. He’s a dude that was incredibly talented and if it were not for Kazuma killing his parents he probably would have been a professional athlete/star and successful. Kazumadad lowkey hints at this in Yakuza 1. What makes yakuza 0 so damn amazing is that it’s a prequel that literally enhanced the entirety of the franchise retroactively by showing us just why the mishmash of stuff in Yakuza 1 like protecting/raising Haruka were so focused on in the franchise as a whole.

Amazing breakdown as always, I hope you do delve deeper into the Yakuza scores, I can't wait to see something like Twin Dragon's broken down, it's such an awesome/epic piece, imo especially within the context of when it plays!

That outfit is a strange combination of Kiryu's classic outfit combined with his Yakuza 0 one. It's got the low buttoned style of the classic, but with the chain pattern on undershirt from the Yakuza 0 outfit, all with the brightness turned down for a black and gold color set.

I came for the Baka Mitai analysis but stayed 'cause of the other game references. I legit didn't expect to hear anything about Final Fantasy or Fire Emblem. I didn't realize he makes videos about game OST analysis omfg. (Also, is that Beneath the Mask in the background?)

Man, i wish your video were longer. I think the second part f the chorus of the full song where Kiryu's voice gets even more high and sentimental would have been really good to see you react to. Other than that. Awesome, i really enjoy learning about music and your takes on these songs! You're also really good at recreating or adding things to the songs.

English Lyrics for Bakamitai (I've Been A Fool), a slightly modified version of the original official English version introduced in 7. [Verse] I have been a fool, and you've been childish, You fell down, you got hurt chasing sweeter dreams Never could- hide the truth in your eyes, And that's how I knew, that smile was a lie [Hook] I LOVE YOU is- something you never say, Couldn't get it out, always just ran away So then why, please won't you tell me why, You can find the words- to say goodbye...? [Chorus] I'm such a mess, I'm a fool, I'm no good at this, I'm still in love, still in love, still in love with you... Hard as I try, can't even- drink this pain away... Memories of you, twisting my view... *I've been a fool...*
