"Kamippoi na" (神っぽいな, 'God-ish') is a 2021 song written by Japanese music producer PinocchioP (ピノキオピー) featuring Vocaloid virtual singer Hatsune Miku. The song is one of the most viewed Vocaloid songs on YouTube, and has been covered by singers such as Ado.[2]

Lyrics and composition

[edit]

"Kamippoi na" is a fast-paced electropop song. Its vocal range spans from the low note of A3 to the high note of D♯6, which appears before the last refrain.[1]

The song satirizes modern popular trends.[3] The word "God-ish" repeatedly appears in the song lyrics. PinocchioP explained that although someone appears to understand everything, eventually it's just "god-ish", not "god".[2]

The lyrics quote Friedrich Nietzsche's statement "Gott ist tot". PinocchioP expressed his liking for "active nihilism" in an interview, and thought the words aligned with the song title and his mode of thinking.[2]

Music video

[edit]

A music video for "Kamippoi na" was released on September 17, 2021. The music video features an illustration of a nun with a tongue piercing holding a cigarette.[4] The animation style of music video adopts the popular Vocaloid music videos' style, forming a contrast with the song theme.[2]
