Ai no uta

"Ai No Uta" (Japanese: 愛のうた) was a song released in conjunction with the video game Pikmin for the Nintendo GameCube. The song was only used in commercials for the game and does not appear in the game itself, and those commercials appeared only in Japan. The lyrics are, not surprisingly, in Japanese. The song is sung by the group Strawberry Flower, who also produced the theme song for the sequel to Pikmin, Pikmin 2. The title of the song translates to "Song of Love," so named because the song expounds on the emotions the Pikmin feel in relation to their involvement in the game, and also their devotion to their given task of helping the game's protagonist, Captain Olimar.
