“Hey, it’s me, Hachi. I made this silly video that I hope will raise your spirits.”
—Author's comment

"MATORYOSHKA" is an original song by Hachi. It was uploaded to YouTube on October 1, 2010. This song was made for Miku's 3rd anniversary.

This song is a rather chaotic and addictive alternative rock composition which reached over 1 million hits with incredible speed (less than 32 days, a feat that most other well-known songs take from a few months to a year to achieve).

The song has received many parodies, covers, and fan art works featuring alternate Vocaloid pairs in the style of the original MV.

Most of the lyrics are nonsensically vague or ridiculous, with a slight hint of pain or sadness, giving the overall song a crazy and psychotic feeling. Therefore, the lyrics have been interpreted in various ways.

A Matryoshka is a Russian nesting doll. The intermissions are descriptions in many different languages from the Wikipedia article for them. The first is taken exclusively from the Japanese one, but the second combines information from other languages.

This is the first duet song to enter the Hall of Myths. It also exceeded over 50 million YouTube views. Hence, this is Hachi's most notable song, alongside "DUNE", and one of the most popular VOCALOID duets.

Japanese (日本語歌詞)	Romaji (ローマ字)
1, 2, 3, 4!!

考え過ぎのメッセージ	kangae sugi no messeeji
誰に届くかも知らないで	dare ni todoku kamo shiranai de
きっと私はいつでもそう	kitto watashi wa itsudemo sou
継ぎ接ぎ狂ったマトリョシカ	tsugi hagi kurutta matoryoshika

頭痛が歌うパッケージ	zutsuu ga utau pakkeeji

フロイト？ケロイド？鍵を叩いて	furoito? keroido? ken o tataite
全部全部笑っちゃおうぜ	zenbu zenbu waracchaou ze
さっさと踊れよ馬鹿溜まり	sassato odoreyo baka tamari

てんで幼稚な手を叩こう	tende youchi na te o tatakou
わざと惑った調子でほら	waza to kurutta choushi de hora
きっと私はどうでもいい	kitto watashi wa dou demo ii
