Reader’s Question:
Can you tell me the title of the song used for the opening or ending of the Water田わさび version of Doraemon? The lyrics include “I wonder if I’ll forget when I grow up” and “Sha la la la, let’s sing a song.” If there is a CD released, could
you also provide the title of that CD?
Discovering “Yume o Kanaete Doraemon”
So, the other day, I found myself reminiscing about the good old days of watching Doraemon. You know how certain songs just stick with you? Well, I stumbled upon this gem of a song titled “Yume o Kanaete Doraemon,” which is the opening theme for the Water田わさび version of the show. The lyrics really hit home, especially the line “I wonder if I’ll forget when I grow up.” It’s like a nostalgic punch to the gut, reminding me of those carefree childhood days.
A Walk Down Memory Lane
I remember sitting cross-legged in front of the TV with my friends, munching on snacks and giggling at Nobita’s antics. There was this one time when my friend tried to imitate Doraemon’s voice. Let’s just say it would have been a hit at an open mic night! We laughed so hard that soda came out of our noses. Ah, the joys of childhood! And then there’s that catchy phrase “Sha la la la, let’s sing a song.” It’s such an earworm! I caught myself humming it while doing chores the other day. Funny how a simple tune can brighten your day. It also makes me think about how important it is to keep that sense of wonder alive, especially as a parent.
Parenting and Nostalgia
As a dad now, I find myself sharing these moments with my child. We watch Doraemon together, and I can’t help but see the joy in their eyes, just like I had back then. It’s a wonderful cycle, and I treasure every laugh and smile we share. I also learned that there’s a CD associated with this song, which is pretty cool! It seems like a fun way to introduce my kid to the same magic I experienced. I’m planning to get it so we can belt out those tunes together—hopefully, without any soda mishaps this time! So, what about you? Do you have any favorite childhood songs or shows that you still love today? I’d love to hear your stories and any tips on how you keep those memories alive with your little ones!
