Reader’s Question:
Is there anyone who can sing the opening theme song from the 1972 Nippon Television version of Doraemon, even just one chorus?
Musical Nostalgia: A Dive into Doraemon’s Theme
It’s funny how a simple question about a childhood song can ignite a wave of nostalgia and bring people together. I
came across a reader’s inquiry about the iconic opening theme song from the 1972 Nippon Television version of Doraemon. It took me back to those lazy afternoons spent watching the blue robotic cat on TV. One user, with an infectious enthusiasm, claimed he could even strum it on his guitar. I could almost picture him, perhaps sitting in a cozy corner of his room, surrounded by snacks—maybe some chips or those irresistibly sweet melon bread. As he sang along, I imagined him recalling the adventures of Nobita and his friends, the laughter echoing through his space like the carefree days of childhood. The user also mentioned being able to sing “Doraemon e Drawing Song,” which made me chuckle. I remember trying to draw Doraemon myself, albeit with mixed results. My attempts were more abstract art than cartoon, but hey, it was the joy of creating that mattered. The sense of community in sharing these memories is heartwarming, reminding me of the simple joys of life and how music can transport us back in time. It’s interesting how these songs and shows form a collective memory for many of us. We may have grown up, but the essence of those childhood experiences lingers on, often popping up in the most unexpected moments. It’s a reminder that, despite our busy lives and responsibilities, we can still find joy in the little things—like singing a theme song from a beloved childhood show. I would love to hear from you all! Do you have a favorite childhood song or show that brings back fond memories? Maybe a funny experience related to it? Share your stories in the comments. Let’s keep this conversation alive!
