Lyrics:

Fushigi da ne ima no kimochi (This feeling, it's strange, isn't it?)
Sora kara futte kita mitai (It's almost as though it came fluttering down from the sky)
Tokubetsu na kisetsu no iro ga tokimeki o miseru yo (The color of this special season fills me with excitement)

Hajimete deatta toki kara (From the moment we met)
Yokan ni sawagu kokoro no Melody (The melody of my heart has been ringing with premonitions)
Tomerarenai tomaranai na ze (It can't be stopped, it won't be stopped- why?)

Todokete (Ring out)
Setsunasa ni wa namae o tsukeyou ka "Snow halation"? (Shall I name this heart-rending pain "Snow halation"?)
Omoi ga kasanaru made matezu ni (I can't wait for our feelings to resonate)
Kuyashii kedo suki tte junjou (It's frustrating, but it's a pure-hearted devotion called love)
Binetsu no naka tameratte mo dame da ne (Even in this mild fever, I can't hesitate)

Fun!

It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial

Artist commentary:

Makin:

Don't let your memes be dreams. Don't let anyone tell you "hey, memes can't carry a song", because it's a dirty lie, just look at this masterpiece.

Some say chanting BACK YARD along with the Horrorterrors will reveal ancient mysteries of the human psyche.

/co/ probably hates me for making them listen to Extraterrestrial again. And multiple other reasons.

Shoutouts to simpleflips Vinesauce for their ROM corrupter, it's how I messed up Fleenstones

NyashAlex:

In the flash file for Jade: Wake up, Jade's sprite with this pose was green so I had to sit for ~15 minutes and recolor it while checking if I didn't miss any pixel.
