Like Ai no Uta, Tane no Uta (種のうた?, lit.: "Song of Seed") was used in the Japanese advertisements, specifically those for Pikmin 2. The song can also be partially heard in some games. Oddly enough, the CD of Tane no Uta comes with CD Extra capabilities. There is actually a TV commercial present on the disc when booted on a computer.[1]
In games
- New Play Control! Pikmin 2: The Japanese version has an exclusive attract mode cutscene where the track plays. It is not present in the Switch release.[2]
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl: It is one of the unlockable tracks for Distant Planet.
Lyrics
Japanese (Hiragana)
あか ぴくみん は ひ に つよい
あお ぴくみん は おぼれない
きい ぴくみん は たかく とぶ
むらさき ぴくみん ちから もち
しろ ぴくみん には…
どく が ある
こせい が いろいろ いきて いる よ
あたま の てっぺん め を だして
その め が はっぱ に そだったら
その は は つぼみ に ちぢこまり
その つぼみ から はな さいた
みんな あつまって
きれい でしょう
こせい は いろいろ さかせましょう
あかい ゆうひ が もえている
あおい うみ から かお だして
きいろい ほし が うまれたら
むらさき いろ の よあけ から
しろ いちにち が…
はじまる よ
こせい が いろいろ うつくしい ね
Japanese (Romaji)
Aka pikumin wa hi ni tsuyoi
Ao pikumin wa oborenai
Ki pikumin wa takaku tobu
Murasaki pikumin chikara mochi
Shiro pikumin niwa...
doku ga aru
Kosei ga iroiro ikite iru yo
Atama no teppen me wo dashite
Sono me ga happa ni sodattara
Sono ha wa tsubomi ni chidjikomari
Sono tsubomi kara hana saita
Minna atsumatte...
kirei deshou
Kosei wa iroiro sakasemashou
Akai yuuhi ga moeteiru
Aoi umi kara kao dashite
Kiiroi hoshi ga umaretara
Murasaki iro no yoake kara
Shiroi ichinichi ga...
hajimaru yo
Kosei ga iroiro utsukushii ne
=Thai-English (roughly translated)
Weather is here, I will do it myself. I don't want to take it, I've played for many years, But it's boring to grow up. The hand that was inserted was Ming who was in Kalamochijiro. I went and didn't know that... Google was a person, So I took a picture of her
A sprout emerges from the top of their heads Once that sprout grows into a leaf That leaf curls up into a bud, and a flower blooms from that bud Everyone comes together, Aren't they beautiful? Let's bloom many types of personalities
The red setting sun is burning Poking their faces out from the blue ocean Once a yellow star is born From the purple dawn A white day... has begun Aren't the different kinds of personalities beautiful?
Trivia
- In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Viridi's explanation of each Pikmin in Palutena's Guidance lists the Pikmin in the same order as in Tane no Uta. This may be a deliberate reference since Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Smash Taunt conversation involving the Pikmin references Ai no Uta.
