Awesome Music / KikoRiki

Hoo's ready to get down?

Over the years, KikoRiki made itself a lot of great tunes.

---

The original series

• An upbeat, short Intro theme plays as characters build their own world.
• From the 4Kids Entertainment dub of the show comes the memorable GoGoRiki intro theme that once again proves that if there's something 4Kids is good at, its creating surprisingly catchy Alternative Foreign Theme Songs.
• Also from the 4Kids version, there's "Gotunes" music videos at the end of each episode:
  • Time to Go-Go, an upbeat and celebrational Animesque song that briefly summarizes each character. (Except for Barry, which gets lampshaded.) ^note This was originally one of the candidates for an opening theme of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds named "Need for Speed", eventually repurposed for GoGoRiki with different lyrics.
  • Up in the Air, a jazzy tune about flight. It also plays in the episode "Dreams In the Sky", where it replaces "Off You Go" and has an additional verse and a part sung by Pin.
  • Big Blue Ball, a heartwarming guitar song about the Earth and the people living on it as neighbours.
  • Opposites Attract is a romantic song by Rosa and Wally about their love for each other, despite being so different.
  • Circle of Friends, an upbeat country song from Eric Stuart about having a close friends.
  • Get Round is a catchy Hip-Hop song, one of few in the series done in a rap genre.^note The music is a remix of "(Whoomp!) There It Is" by Tag Team. It was also sung by Shawn Conrad, who did opening theme to 4Kids dub of One Piece.
  • My Baby on Ice, a charming orchestral Christmas theme reminiscent of vintage radio music.
• Jetzt Geht's Rund, another catchy and upbeat Alternative Foreign Theme Song from the German version by children's band Die Lolipops.
• Off You Go (От Винта), sung by Anton Vinogradov, got a cult (and almost memetic) status in Russia for its catchiness and was included in the the first movie. (English version.)
  If you dream to be a pilot, you're obviously brave
  Since it takes a lot of courage to decide to fly a plane
  Since it is the bravest people that enjoy the soaring heights
  When they hear that "off you go now", they rush off to start to fly
• Balamut and Obormot (Баламут и обормот), is Krash's Image Song. It was included in the third movie, Deja Vu, and Signature Entertainment made a great English translation sung by James Caran, Goofy guy.
  He doesn't sleep, he wants to fight, and he just keeps me up all night
  And after that when comes the sun, the only things he wants is fun
  I hint that we should say goodbye, but he ignores me all the time
  You know what really scares me though? I'm getting used to this fellow!
• The City of Omsk (Город Омск), a serious song about Krash and Chiko trying to get to the aforementioned town. (English version.)
• The Marathoner (Марафонец) from the titular episode perfectly accompanies Wally as he runs across the whole valley and manages to incorporate inhaling and exhaling sounds in it.
• Vestibular System (Вестибулярный Аппарат), sung by Sergey Mardar, is surprisingly upbeat for a theme about Dokko testing Krash and Chiko's vestibular system.
• Carlin's song, Where does the old year go? (Куда уходит старый год?), is about why the old year is going away and who is to blame for it.
• New Year's lullaby (Новогодняя колыбельная) sings that some things can't be stopped.
• Shubidu (Шубиду) is a jazz song about not being able to sleep; it's time to get up and have fun.
• It’s so easy, the song to which Krash dances on ice, is one of the few songs of the show that was entirely in English.
• The right to be alone (Право на одиночество) is about the fact that an artist can be alone, but a person can not.

New Season

• Rock-Opera and Something More (Рок-опера и кое-что ещё) features a variety of musical numbers ranging from Carlin's (Sergey Mardar's) epic vocals to Krash's Stylistic Suck singing. All of this takes place in a regular six-minute episode and is staged to talk Rosa into having a birthday party. It ends with Dokko's blues:
  Dokko: I'm so lonely, baby...

Team Invincible

• Single Thread (Ниточка) is a sad theme that perfectly captures Chiko's loneliness and feeling of being lost at the time. (English version.)
• Stranger (Спасибо тебе, прохожий!), another upbeat song that plays as Wally escapes from the hostpital and tries to find Lucien. (English version.)

Deja Vu

• What Does It Matter (Вместе), a happy recurring theme used by Chronobooth. Its full version plays over the credits. (English version.)

Miscellaneous

• A Round Song (Круглая Песня). Just like "Big Blue Ball", it is a heartwarming song about people living on Earth, though with more emphasis on the round shape. Despite not appearing in the original show (being simply a bonus track), its Instrumental version was used as the background music in the 4Kids dub.
• Crumple we crumple (Мнём мы мнём), another charming theme written specifically for Parallel worlds - a 2008 video game based on the series, that fittingly plays during the credits.
