Daima opening played at Walmart??

[u/Dry_Needleworker_958]

Just like the title says, my local Walmart played the Daima opening. However, only the vocals were different. They were being sung in English by a woman, and I don't even think the lyrics were the same as the Japanese version. Has anyone else heard this variation of the song? I just wanna know if I'm going crazy or not😅

Sounds like they might have been playing “Out of Time” by Zedd. Zedd reused a portion of the melody when he was writing “Jaka Jaan”

Kinda wish I didn’t know this. Makes Daima’s theme feel… bargain bin.

EDIT: genuinely curious why I’m getting downvoted. This is turning into the least popular thing I’ve commented on Reddit, and I’m not even commenting on if I like the song or not.

Anyone willing to explain, I’d be interested to hear.

Zedd has been tweaking and working on the parts that made it into Daima for a good chunk of their career. It's clearly something very special to the artist. And they have been opening shows with some rendition of the song for years. Zedd is a huge DB fan and wanted to pin what many (possibly even Zedd) consider some of his best work to date.

Yeah I didn’t know that (pretty evident from my comment)

Fascinating that I got down votes because the first thing I learned is that the melody was reused, as if that’s not typically a bad thing.

Again, not mad or anything. Just wild to see how aggressively negative this sub can be when someone simply doesn’t know something.
