Editing Talk:Jump Up, Super Star!

I'm questioning the line "There's no power-up like dancing." The first word of the line doesn't seem to have an initial "th" sound, and end of the first word feels a bit more like a plosive "t" than just a straight sibilant "s" sound. Perhaps the line is "It's no power-up like dancing, but either way, the line feels a bit out of place in the context. I also think "Straighten up your cap" might actually be "straighten *out* our cap." [[User:Artsyomni|Artsyomni]] ([[User talk:Artsyomni|talk]])

== Captain Toad ==

I am pretty certain that the line "you know that every CAPTAIN needs a CREW" is referring to Captain Toad and the Toad Briggade.
Considering both CT and his briggade appears in the game. So I really don't understand why the code for the page sais "please don't add captain toad here". That's exactly what I was planning to do. So whoever added that comment, please explain why you don't believe that reference.

:I didn't add the tag, but the line can very well be a metaphor of Mario and Cappy. -- {{User:Super Radio/Sig}} 08:39, 1 November 2017 (EDT)
::Captain Toad's role in the game is negligible at best. {{User:Time Turner/sig}} 08:38, 1 November 2017 (EDT)
:::I added that due to A): Precisely what Turner and Radio said, B): If that ''were'' a reference to Captain Toad, it should be more obvious, and C): The song is about Mario and Pauline, not what amounts to a recurring extra in the game.

:Also, Cappy gives Mario a captain's hat in the early stages of the game to "captain" the Odyssey.

== Song lyrics. (Japanese) ==

Hello there,

why is the translation of 女神がきすをした actually a 'Godly kiss'? It actually says: 'The goddess kissed':

女神（Goddess）が（particle）キス（Kiss）を（Particle, direct object）した（-ed）

I guess you'd say something like this if you wanted to mean a deity kiss or a godly kiss... 敬虔[な]キス

Whether it makes sense or not, the translation doesn't seem to me like "a godly kiss" at all.

== Full Japanese Version of Jump Up, Super Star! ==

Hello. There is a full Japanese version of Jump Up, Super Star! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUBOUSgvKE4 {{unsigned|DeriLoko2}}

== Aimi Mukohara's Email ==

Songwriter Aimi Mukohara provided some inside information about the recording of Jump Up, Super Star in Japnese, here's an extract:
 [...] Actually Kate’s version was recorded before mine, and the demo was sung by Japanese singer-songwriter who I happen to be my friend, this is not mentioned by Nintendo, I heard from my friend. 
 So that was not me. So one of the members in the sound team was looking for a singer and there were some candidates. They listened to my YouTube videos that are my originals and liked my voice. So I went into the studio for recording audition and got the offer afterwards. I had people from Nintendo Sound Team, engineer, some other people and my vocal director(used to be my vocal coach) in the studio and recorded “Jump Up, Super Star!”. Then I also recorded “Break Free” a few weeks later. 
 This was my first working experience with game company but Nitendo team was really nice, passionate and patient - amazing team. I’d work with them anytime if I had another chance. [...]
 - Aimi Mukohara

She also sent me a fixed version of the lyrics.

== This reference should contain a link like the others ==

His page is either protected or semi-protected, so I can’t add them but there are multiple references that don’t have links. The line about wacky worlds is almost definitely a reference to [[Super Mario’s Wacky Worlds]] and the line about flipping the switch is probably referring to the [[Nintendo Switch]]. Also, the line about moving side to side is almost definitely referencing 2D Mario games, but I don’t know what would be a suitable link for that.
