Kk bossa is actually the only kk song ever given lyrics, it was used in the anime.

My main "problem" with hypno k.k. is mainly the fact that it reminds me too much of new leaf's aika village haha

Stale Cupcakes is my absolute favorite Animal Crossing song. It's so peaceful and calming. I have it playing in my ACNH bedroom (the music box version). When my son was a baby (about 2021) I would sometimes play the Aircheck hour long loop in the room where he slept and he seemed to like it a lot.

Okay, Steep Hill got the appreciation it deserves. That's all I i needed to know.

KK robot synth is most definitely based around Vocaloid and Hatsune Miku. Even the cover gives homage to it.

I use K.K. Choral at the memorial area on my island. I dedicated my island to my cat since he passed away the day after I got my switch and a couple days before I got New Horizons. I go to that area to reflect or calm down, and that song with the waterfalls surrounding it really does something to me that I can't explain. That made me all the angrier (/lh, of course) when Kitty autofilled two days before I could amiibo Bertha in and she was playing that song in her house.

12:45 K.K. Dirge "Dirge" is pronounced "durrge". A dirge is a poem or song made in memorial of a deceased person (funeral). Points for pronouncing Étude right! I'm a huge fan of all the Asian KK songs, so it was hilarious to see your reactions! And does anyone else think the cover of K.K. Robot Synth just screams "Vocaloid"? The blue hair just makes me think of Kaito. (Kaito K.K.? No?)

So happy to see K.K. Disco get the flowers it deserves! I always have it playing on my island because it evokes so much joy

I have farewell playing on the pathway to a little memorial I made for my dog who passed, I thought it was fitting. Then at the memorial I Love You plays :) it's good for short thoughtful times. Some of my favorite KK songs are KK Ballad, Island, and Bossa! Steep Hill also goes so freaking hard.

yall kk lovers is underrated, i love that song.

I used to love KK Cruisin’ so much that I found a few remixes of it and wow, some people really make incredible remixes of songs from really any game

You comitted so much crimes here and I didn't even finish watching

K.K. Crusin goes SO HARD. Hands down my favourite animal crossing song

This KK Faire slander will NOT be tolerated. Its meant to be based off traditional Okinawan Japanese music.

24:37 the music is supposed to sound random, it's based on a brazilian genre of music called samba where you have to make quick leg movements to dance to it, as a brazilian i actually recognize biggening of the song as it's a part of one of the most popular samba songs!

Your ranking of KK Dirge at that low is criminal. I would definitely play that in my house for my friends

I don't know how many people here played this game but KK Condor reminds me SO MUCH of the songs you had to play as Link in TLOZ Spirit Tracks!

the amount of clear cultural refferences is so lovely. its like K.K. travels around the world learning about each culture and their music and makes a song for each of em. also kk cruisin is LIT

Lolly is a permanent villager in my town. She likes to wear her orange comedian outfit and sings I Love You for half the day. It's a favorite of my villagers so we kind of had to adopt it too. We have a room in one of our houses devoted to all the Easter items. We play KK Faire, which we have dubbed "The Egg Song"

K.K Cruisin', K.K Bossa, K.K. Bubblegum, and K.K Jongara each have a room in my house. K.K. Khoomei reminds me of traditional chinese music. The weird sounds you like actually mimics what traditional chinese singing sounds like

What I usually do is have a music player near the plaza -- this time, it's a jukebox, but on past islands, it was a DJ booth -- and advance one song forward every day except 1) when the dog himself is there, the player goes off, and 2) K.K. Birthday is skipped unless it is, in fact, someone's birthday. A lot of the album art is based on real-world album art. Sadly, the Animal Crossing Wiki article on K.K. Break doesn't identify what its art is based on. Bubblegum K.K. is "Keke Aidoru", or "K.K. Idol", in the context of a singing idol. Hypno K.K.'s Japanese name means "Napping Dream". K.K. Casbah's name means "Turkish Song". K.K. Condor is called Perū no Uta (basically "Peruvian Song") in Japanese, so, yeah, South American. K.K Faire is Haisai Keke in Japanese; "Haisai" is how you say "Hello" in Okinawan, Okinawa being a part of Japan. Khoomei is a popular kind of Tuvan throat singing, and Tuva is a federal subject of Russia. K.K. Love Song's start makes me think of an old 1919 song (so a couple of decades older than my mother) called "Swanee". (Be warned, some performances you might find were done in blackface, so you may not feel comfortable viewing them, regardless of singer intent.) K.K. Lament is "Keke Enka". K.K. Marathon's identity was one of the more surprising ones out there. It turns out to be based on a traditional type of Indonesian music called gamelan. Rally, Ondo. More traditional Japanese music; can't begrudge them it, really. I like to use K.K. Soul as the music for the apparel shop facility. I think K.K. Sonata is what I used for my restaurant facility on a previous save, and when I get it again, I'll change what it currently is to it. (I like to make the restaurant fancy.) K.K. Synth is K.K.-tronica. Well, Mountain Song is "Alpine Song", so not just any mountains, but the Alps. If it helps, think of "Mr. K.K." as if K.K. Slider were your teacher, as the Japanese name is "Keke-sensei", "sensei" being a word encompassing a number of professions, but most universally known is "teacher". Note that the album art depicts the girls as wearing sailor uniforms, while the boys are in gakuran. If you've watched anime set in high school, especially a co-ed high school, you've seen both. Which is funny because you're mostly -- outside of a few bits of the list -- just serpentining your way down the list of songs as they appear in a full menu for a music player. If they were in writing order, maybe you could expect to see trends, but this is mostly four songs in alphabetical order, then four songs in reverse alphabetical order, next row forward, next row reverse, etc.. Stale Cupcakes is really "Blue Onigiri". It's like, what is this 4Kids-inspired localization, guys? There's nothing like a stale cupcake, I guess.

Could you rate all Hourly soundtracks?

K.K Folk is an absolute banger! But I can understand why you ranked it low. And KK Dirge is pronounced “Durge” it’s basically an old style of music that was intended for Funerals. Really sorrowful and depressing.

K.K. Soul is my favorite song. But I think objectively, Steep Hill is the best one of all. It's a total masterpeace.

Hypno K.K. Is my favorite song. It sounds like that because it’s being played backwards. Normally a note has articulation at the beginning of it and ends much softer. Since hypno kk is backwards the articulation happens at the end of each note which gives it the creepy vibe.

i really liked the little clips you put with each song, fun references or just really funny haha great job!!

When your favorite song gets a 5/10 but then your second favorite gets 10/10. 😂

22:15 Keke rally is supposed to be the song that is played at a Japanese festival (matsuri) where people dance along to. 29:20 It is a graduation song. The original title is “Keke sensei”=Teacher Keke and the cover art is of a class picture tacked onto a bulletin board.

When my friends would play new leaf we would randomly play pondering and we would all spam the pondering reaction and try to run out of the house at the same time That’s why k.k’s music is great, it creates memories!

Really fun idea for a video! I was shocked to see "Pondering" somehow escape a 1 or 2... that song is just mad unsettling to me. In a similar way to K.K Hypno (Which I am also shocked didn't get the absolute lowest rating lol) Great taste for the upper ranking songs tho

If kk lovers (live) isnt rated high i will RIOT

King KK, in my opinion, is very underrated. The whooshes and hints of Tom Nook’s town tune really give off a great vibe.

Doesn’t judge music on cover art: Proceeds to give a song a 9 based on cover art.

10:51 just so you know farmers are the ones that deal with plants Ranchers I'm pretty sure are the one's that deal with cattle

Have no idea if he knows this, but Go K.K. Rider does have other remixes and covers is Super Smash Bros Brawl and onward! The beginning is played by a bunch of trumpets

The little videos you're using to illustrate the vibe are so funny

"Chorinho" is pronounced with the CH sounding like SH, like in "shovel". Also, the NH part sounds like the GN part from "lasagna". Soulful K.K. didn't deserve a 2 though...

28:25 I was confused on why K.K. Tango was skipped.

Stale cupcakes was the first song I ever purchased on animal crossing and it was my favorite for so long. I was new to the game and I didn’t understand it was a song so it was sitting in my storage for so long until I realized it can be played on a speaker. I just got it for the silly name

KK Slider songs are like Pokemon: each one is *somebody’s* favourite.

Mr. K.K IS a graduation song! the text under it on the cover reads "Keke Sensei" (Sensei being the word used to refer to your professors and teachers in japanese), and the characters surrounding him in the cover are all dressed in school uniforms. i think it's pretty cute! my favorite song is a tie between stale cupcakes and I Love You, they're both just so pretty to me! i also really love k.k synth's live version, and the music box version from new leaf was also very pretty

Go kk rider is probably a reference to the japanese tv show kamen rider which is about this guy whose kinda like the power rangers but in a bug-like suit and he can ride a motercycle

My favorite one is Robot Synth, and I really like Gumbo and Drivin’ as well. Also Clyde’s favorite though I forgot what it was called. Bubblegum is great too.

This helped me pick out some songs for my tropical themed restaurant. Thanks!

K.k. Bubblegum and I have a weird history. So around ten years ago. Back in the new leaf days. I streetlassed their girl in the streetpass plaza. This girl (I forgot the name of her) her name town was named créme. I walked into her house and it was really pink. Bubbly and cute. And bubblegum k.k. Was playing. Then I went downstairs and literally the most TERRIFYING pattern of this creepy EERIE face on the wall. And it was small and dark 😭. I literally was shaking at my 3ds. Went back upstairs and I haven’t seen bubblegum k.k. The same ever since

Sigh, KK Hypno is so underrated… 😞

For the first time I noticed the Aries Rocking Chair in the K.K. Break cover. I personally love the Aloha song, I always think about it when I get stressed and it helps me to calm down again. But there are is so much good music in this game!

K.K. Synth is my favorite ac song, it doesnt sound as good in acnh, but with that old-school pixel sound, it sounds almost.. fleeting? its hard to explain

Because of the animated movie K.K. Bossa is definitely my favorite

The song "Steep Hill" has always spoken to me. One day, I heard it and cried. It wasn't sad, it was just so deep. I believe that it is the most meaningful, deepest, and most memorable K.K Slider song. It feels as though it's trying to convey a deep and meaningful message. If you haven't heard it all the way through yet, I suggest you do.

K.K. Dirge and Hypno K.K. are creepy songs. But I think Dirge is the creeper one because of the lower and more muffed sound. Muffed audio sounds a lot creeper than more clear audio.

Having your birthday in lockdown gives kk birthday 10/10 for life

35:44 ahh yes, my favourite K.K. Slider song, K.K. deer gay

K.K. Stroll holds a special place in my heart since nowadays it brings me nostalgia of me playing New Leaf

Stale Cupcakes is my absolute favorite. It reminds me of the soft tracks from Super Mario Galaxy Close second would definitely be K. K. Robot Synth. Cuz VOCALOID, y'all shut up

KK Bubblegum is overrated, HEAR ME OUT. Edit: I don't say I dislike the song, it's just that you just hear it pretty much EVERYWHERE in Animal Crossing. Also why'd you force your villagers to just sing it for thousands of hours? 🤷🏻‍♂️ There are so many songs that are so much better than Bubblegum.

K.K. Disco just gives off good vibes

K.K lullaby has a weird reversed part in it, i don't know why.

kk bazaar holds a special place in my heart as the first kk song i got

Stale cupcakes has my heart when played on a music box ❤

Kk salsa was in my living room in new leaf for a long time. I put it on my beach in new horizon but then changed it to kk mariachi, but kk salsa has a special place in my heart, same for steep hill.

Have you ever heard of Clay K. Slider? He makes real songs in K.K. songs

My top 3 is: 1: K.K. Groove 2: K.K. Rock 3: K.K. Country Love the video Elijah

You break my heart. K.K. Condor deserves to be at least 8, personally 9 or 10. And K.K. Synth is one of my favorites, its just so chill (seriously, it was my music in my Ice Theme room in New Leaf). And then some of the ones you put above it, just twisted the knife.

3:24 I like the music box version of it. 3:34 One of the best songs along with Ballad, feels like “shopping mall” music. 8:52 This sounds so nostalgic, similar to the Wii music. 9:18 Classic. 13:49 Yees 17:54 I love this as well 18:51 Another classic. 23:21 I like it 26:52 Could easily replace the hourly music 28:57 They should had kept it instead of replacing it. 31:37 I agree. 33:05 Good song and a bit sad.

With all due respect, your opinion is wrong for KK balled. That shit is 10/10

K.K. Western is soooo good to me!!! I love hearing my villagers sing to it lol. Has to be my favorite K.K. song!!! ❤❤❤

K.K Étude sounds like if you entered a villagers house and they fell asleep and the dream they had made you burst in laughter

So glad he gave Forest Life a 10/10! I have been listening to this every day when I play Animal Crossing (whichever version I'm playing) for the past 15 years. It's the only song for me. 😄

K.K. Bashment is my favorite track, it's so good

Pronunciation notes: Dirge is “duhrj” Étude was pronounced pretty well Dear god what did you do to KK Jongara Hazure is Japanese for “miss” or “failure” and is pronounced “hah-zoo-rei”, and there’s 3 total it seems. Anyways I did want to mention that K.K. Robot Synth’s artwork says “Kekeroido” in Japanese which is probably a portmanteau of K.K. (Keke-) and “vocaloid” (-roido). Mr. K.K. actually IS a school related song, as the album depicts a school photo and the text says Keke-sensei.

The secret song played at the End of the video is my favorite K K song.

Damn KK Folk was done dirty 🥺

Mr. KK probably sounds like a “graduation tune” because it’s supposed to be like KK as a teacher. That’s why the cover art is them in school uniforms. At least I’m assuming. I have no proof aside from the fact that it says KK Sensei on the lil pink strip on the album cover.

Mr K.K. is 100% a graduation song and nothing will change my mind. 10/10 job ranking it.

Welcome horizons will forever hold a special place forever...when that title drops...man

I love that K.k. Cruisin was rated so high. I love that song.

K.K Cruisin’ was one of the first songs I got so it’s been playing on my island since I first got the game

I INSTANTLY searched for Steephill on this video, and Glad you put some respect on it. although I go 11/10 also the metal cover is worth a search

K.K. Ballad is my favourite. So much nostalgia!

K.k bossa was the first song I ever found, I think one of my villagers put it up for sale at the recycling place in new leaf so it became one of my favorites for that reason

I love the idea of this list and I can't lie I'd forgotten most of your lower rated songs since I kicked them out of my jukeboxes! Bossa and Drivin my fave! Did anyone notice the newly added songs have lower volumes?

Hypno kk sounds like the strange but cool but weeird Adventure Time background music. Kk forest made me tear up a little from the nostalgia haha. KK Rider is legit. Sometimes I play its Smash Bros version when I drive, haha. KK Ballad still plays in my sisters house on our original Gamecube village. I have KK Condor in my house. The cover of KK Condor has the Nazca Lines which is a South American giant geoglyph. The cover art of KK Break reminds me of Funkadelic album art. KK Faire cracks me up. I like kk Groove a lot. Kk parade honestly i love it. I play polka when im in a weird Al mood. Everybody polkamon! Kk Western is one of my very favorites, haha. Two Days Ago and Only Me are good. Surfin kk was the one my mom put in her house. To The Edge my sis and I joked was someone farting and casually whistling it away

marine song 2001 is my favorite kk song. no idea why i love it so much.

34:56 what's the song he played there? Because I asked KK to play Hazure01 but the song is different from the one of the video😭

my favourite k.k. songs are as follows: agent k.k., k.k. aria, k.k. ballad, k.k. chorinho, k.k. hop, k.k. house, k.k. lament, k.k. waltz, steep hill and two days ago. out of all these, my all time faves (i can't pick out) are agent k.k., k.k. chorinho, k.k. hop, k.k. lament and two days ago. i LOVE how k.k. chorinho got the attention it deserved. out of all the new songs, it seems to be the most underrated one. it is SUCH. a banger. i love the guitar at the beginning, and then how they key changes (i am a SLUT for minor-to-major key changes, they hit some spot in my brain). i love the latin/spanish-inspired ones in general- k.k. mambo, k.k. samba, k.k. tango, k.k. flamenco, k.k. moody, k.k. milonga, k.k. condor, with exception of mariachi, i don't hate it, i just feel like they could've gotten a lot more creative with it. and k.k. samba gets bonus points for leaning in heavy on the cuíca- one if my favourite instruments.

K.K. Bashment is the clear winner for me. It goes with everything and is just a vibe. I *think* it was a post NH release song so I don't think it's gotten its time to shine yet. I'm offended at the Safari rating though. 😂 That was my favorite in the GC days. I like it a little less since but it's still like an 8/10 for me.

Oh, and the whistling in KK faire gives me a real bad headache

Tbh I think kk bossa and kk forest sound 100 times better when kk slider sings it. Especially with kk bossa something feels missing when I listen to the aircheck

I was genuinely mad when you rated K.K. Cruisin a 9/10.

I love stale cupcakes! I got it from my favorite villager, Aurora, so it is a really special song😊

kk rider was one of my favs in new leaf, so nostalgic

kk "robot synth" is called that, and also sounds like it'd have lyrics, because it's a reference to "vocal synth" music. it's basically a program that's a digital voice library. kk robot synth has that sound because lots of vocal synth music is usually electronic/j-pop inspired! also, the cover art for it is most likely a reference to hatsune miku, the most popular vocal synth mascot ever.

the Hypno K.K. slander is crazy

That weird sensual frog album cover🤣😭 I had never seen that before😭

I’d love to see you rank all the K.K album art 😄

KK space is probably my favorite so it hurt for it get a 5/10 lol. this is the one i usually have playing in my first room, sometimes even multiple rooms. I'm glad KK Ska got recognition tho because that's my other go to song to play.

Finally someone else who is very stressed out by Hypno KK

Don't know why but K.K. Slider gives me jimmy Buffett vibes, like you know he has his own chain of restaurants based on one of his songs.

My fave are kk bubblegum stale cupcakes kk lullaby and go kk rider! but forest life kk bossa and kk wandering and tbh welcome horizons are also good and also neopolitan and sonata for knowing it well and bop
