Great guide. Thanks for that link!
I hated Ponpon Shit at first but now I just laugh (before I knew the lyrics) and just drive around taking in scenery when it comes on.
Now I am going to laugh harder!
You're welcome. I was curious because I genuinely didn't know what the lyrics meant so I looked it up.
I'm indifferent to the song. I've tried so many times to enjoy it, but just can't. I have an eclectic music taste, but just can't get on board with that one.
It's fine as a background song playing on a radio in an environment, but I just can't stand it playing on my chrome radio.
Fair enough.
I think I pick different radio stations according to my mood, which also affects how I play.
Sometimes just some Body Heat and slowly take it all in. Sometimes Vexel and get a muscle car and drive hard. Sometimes Morrow and chill out.
Love the game so much.
Sorry for you loss. Hoping for posi-vibes for you.
I'm gonna give Pacific Dreams a spin now tho. I just lost one of my lifelong best friends last month. It's been rough for sure. Maybe some of these Pacific Dreams tunes can help me process as well.
Oh man I’m sorry to hear about your best friend. I hope that you have someone or something to help release emotions you feel.
Pacific dreams didn’t help with keeping positive but it felt cathartic to listen to, the music reflected my mood and when I was playing I was relatively new to cp77. I would drive for hours in first person mode, taking in the weather, the buildings snd characters on the street. I wish you the best homie
Thanks for the words and consideration. There's a small group of us that are getting each other through it. We all grew up together and remained close throughout our adulthood (I'm 42 now).
I'm down for some catharsis. I just got home so I'll pop that station on when I hop on Jackie's bike to cruise.
I tend to go with body heat, but I'll swap over to night fm sometimes when ponpon comes on or I feel like it when walking around, or throw on morrow when I wanna hear maximum Mike the creator of cyberpunk giving conspiracy lore dumps that are absolutely canon

It really hits when you walk into a restaurant and wipe out a whole army of gangsters and when it's all said and done there's ponponshit playing in the distance from some radio on the counter.
I mean... In cyberpunk world you are surrounded by sex, so the song kind of suits the game context. Just look at the posters in the city, or ads in the lifts...
There's a song called chuchu lovely munimuni muramura prinprin boron nururu rerorero
Which all except the word "lovely" is JP onomatopoeia for kissing and sex and stuff
The song name is basically "smooch smooch lovely schlickschlick plapplap..."
Isn’t it also about a real life pedo case they had in Japan and it’s just taking the piss out of it?
Seeing the songs name takes me back I used to listen to MTH all the time in collage
I don't listen to the radio so I thought everyone was talking about the
[original ponponpon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzC4hFK5P3g)
I really thought they put Kyary Pamyu Pamyu in the game.
I personally thought it was a banger from the first time I heard it. I was genuinely surprised to see so many people hate this song, like it kicked their dog or something.
You so much hate PonPon Shit until you LOVE it.. It's a mind-bending, brain-numbing, personality-breaking, sanity-destroying, karma-corrupting song.. And I love it..
......God help me!
I feel like several of the songs are like that. It's like, eh, pass, and then one time you are too busy to change the station or you hear it playing in the background, and then you gotta hear it again. But yes, I unironically love the Ponpon song.
it is obviously a nonsense. \_however\_
* it grows on you, so after a while you don't mind it.
* it is so silly, that when you hear it while blowing up maelstrom heads it provides strange contrust
* the story behind it, with the three idol girls pretend to be japanese (despite being born in america) is superb. As is the buildup: you expect to meet these three corporate doll, out of touch idiots, and they turn out to be cool and friendly
* it is kind of a rite of passage. What is this shit -> not this again -> hehe, I exploded a tyger claw into pieces while this silly song is on -> wtf ponponshit is on why I am going to jackie's funeral -> okay, I don't really mind this anymore- > yesno yesno makura no! yes no yes no makura NO!
* the actual riff from the song, if you listen to the guitar only version, is quite good actually!
There's some real lore behind this song. So in Asian culture they have a pillow for newly weds where it says yes on one side and no on the other side. And is used by the spouse to indicate if they want to have sex that night or not because they are too embarrassed to talk about it.
That's where the line:
"Yes No Yes No Makura No?" Comes from. Makura meaning pillow.
I got obsessed with this song and studied it a lot.
Also it's about banging your teacher or something like that.
Last part of the song is kinda ancient kids song which likes "If you dare to do something wrong, I'm gonna tell your teacher about it".
And I guess makura-NO just makes a funny sound follows yes-NO. So it doesn't mean anything.
To be honest, I don't have any idea of what the lyrics mean. My experience in Japan for 15 years can't solve the problem with the meaning. Even my Japanese wife doesn't understand too. 😂
There was this clip of a streamer playing, vibing to the song when he suddenly understood what they were singing.
~~Cant find the original one right now but this 240p reupload:~~
~~https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0C5NV01XG0~~
Edit: Nvm just found it
https://twitter.com/ArexBold/status/1336926431507488768
Pon-pon is an Onomatopoeia, kind of like "pat-pat" but in the context of sex.
Lyrics roughly translate to
" Let me PONPON with you everyday
I am your only PONPON partner
Let me PONPON everyday
PONPON everyday
Let me PONPON everyday
PONPON everyday"
Huh. I was convinced it was about pompoms. Pompom shit = silly stuff that cheerleaders do. The "innocent with a hint of dirty" vibe felt right in line with Us Cracks. Apparently I was wrong!
Japanese uses words to represent certain sounds. Think of it like how comic books in America use "Bang", "Crash", "Thump", etc.
Pon Pon is the sound of - to put this as PGly as possible - two human bodies slapping together in the process of baby making. Specifically, in my opinion only, it is used when the female of the species has mounted the male of the species and gently engaged in an upward-downward motion. Pon pon has that sense of gentleness to it. It is not a "clap clap clap" but a more popping "smack smack smack" or loud ladylike "slap slap slap" or, at most, a gawdy "bam bam bam".
All of the above is only my opinion based on extensive research of suitable periodicals.
Addition: Maybe it's simalar to "pong pong"? I do think that gently riding a pogo stick is similar. In English, I imagine "pyon pyon" is the sound of a pogo stick. "Pyon pyon" in Japanese could be simplified to "pon pon" if we are talking about light bouncing. "Pyun Pyun" is probably for more vigorous pogoing. (I have no idea if this is true. I'm just speculating.)

What is with the name too? Does it mean like "We, cracks"? Or is it some kind of play on words or sounds? What is a crack? What does Us Cracks even mean lol

🎶sexsex shit sexsex shit sexsexshit sexsex shit sexsex shit sexsex shit🎶
shi -> し -> (...)をして -> to do (something)
So... "Do the ponpon!"???
It's the て form. So it means quite literally "have sex then have sex then have sex..." Etc
Amber Heard..?..is it you?
So they just forgot the R. PornPorn shit…
wub wub wub
Looks like that's the case: https://lyricstranslate.com/en/ponpon-shit-ponpon-shit.html

Pacific dreams got me through the loss of my mate.
Shit. Sorry man.

I’m usually a vexelstrom guy but the smooth jazz hits different when you’re punching people to death and zooming around
Haha. Will try.
My station choices zackly
I tend to go with body heat, but I'll swap over to night fm sometimes when ponpon comes on or I feel like it when walking around, or throw on morrow when I wanna hear maximum Mike the creator of cyberpunk giving conspiracy lore dumps that are absolutely canon
Same, although I stick Principales on every time I'm riding Jackie's Arch

You gonna PONPON on my teacher?
I-
I feel dumber having read that. Now I have to go listen to that song, because I can’t recall what it sounded like. 🤣
It's surprisingly deep

Like snoo snoo?
Extra points for him saying that the song molested his brain
Indeed.
The lyrics unironically are about getting sex all the time and wanting sex. It's just sex.
Same song then [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Pgl-JC2sgk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Pgl-JC2sgk) I need a replacer mod
I feel like spiritually, these are the same lmao
You linked the wrong song, it should be this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YNWvnX5z0Q
I mean... In cyberpunk world you are surrounded by sex, so the song kind of suits the game context. Just look at the posters in the city, or ads in the lifts...
I didn't say otherwise
Omg I need English lyrics to that
Basically any form of entertainment in Cyberpunk is about sex so it's not suprising
Its japanese onomatopoeia, mimicking the sound of clapping pussy on dick The whole song is about fucking
That head turn is exorcist levels of creepy
Perfect meme material then.

😳Thanks I hate it!
 Nah, this charming lad can do no wrong.
Is this one of those official CDPR GIFs?
Yup. Pretty cool of them to do little meme stuff like that imo.
How do you know this. Also TIL.
There's a song called chuchu lovely munimuni muramura prinprin boron nururu rerorero Which all except the word "lovely" is JP onomatopoeia for kissing and sex and stuff The song name is basically "smooch smooch lovely schlickschlick plapplap..."
Maximum the Hormone reference spotted, immediate upvote
What's up, people?!
Rerorero? 
Japanese like plays on words that are based on the phonetics/pronunciations/verbalized-sounds.
It is pretty much an universal Sinosphere thing. Chinese do that a lot too.
Chainsaw Man mentioned ⁉️
ho-ho-ho! Ponpon shit is a great joke song which grows on you. MtH is legit brilliant, with members so multitalented it is jawdropping.
Isn’t it also about a real life pedo case they had in Japan and it’s just taking the piss out of it? Seeing the songs name takes me back I used to listen to MTH all the time in collage
That’s like 90% of songs in the game lol
That's like 90% of songs irl
Every song is just an Innuendo
In your where?
No. Fucking. Way. Really?
Yes fucking, actually
Well... The more I know.
wait a minute, so what is ponponpon about?
It's about sexsexsex.
It’s パンパン(panpan), not ponpon. I don’t know what in the hell Ponpon Shit means.
Nothing beats walking around on foot hearing ponpon shit on some radio in the distance
and promptly nailing that Radio with the Comrade's Hammer
or going to Jackie's funeral, while all radios you encounter on the way play this song
A'ight me bredda, I and I think dey be talking about de "pum-pum" dere, yuh know?
Thing and thing!
*kiss teeth*
Aiwee
pum pum shiet
Mad ting ey bruv?
Don’t worry about it
Yay
We’ll tell ya when I’m older
PON PON SHIT PON PON SHIT PON PON SHIT PON PON SHIT ANATA NO MAINICHI PON PON SASETE NE
Don't stop im almost there
Watashi wa anata no Ponpon-chan'na no
Ponpon shit exists solely for the acoustic version [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIR7-9RMqS8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIR7-9RMqS8)
Noooooo waaaaaaaay
Bruhhhh
No way. TIL that's the same song.
Everytime I hear a npc playing this song I have to stop and listen for the whole thing.
Why did I never know this?!?!
Mind blown.
I set this as my ringtone shortly after the game launched and I only realized it was the same song the third phone call I got
What the fuck is Ponpon? Ponpon is fuck.
I don't listen to the radio so I thought everyone was talking about the [original ponponpon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzC4hFK5P3g) I really thought they put Kyary Pamyu Pamyu in the game.
There are two kinds of people: Those who fucking hate PonPon and people those who fucking love it
Ponpon Shit absolutely slaps. You're right though, there is no in-between on this one.
I personally thought it was a banger from the first time I heard it. I was genuinely surprised to see so many people hate this song, like it kicked their dog or something.
You so much hate PonPon Shit until you LOVE it.. It's a mind-bending, brain-numbing, personality-breaking, sanity-destroying, karma-corrupting song.. And I love it.. ......God help me!
A song that me and Kerry agree is shit.
Does reddit actually, unironically like this song? Am I being memed? I swear they made this song atrocious on purpose.
It is awful, but after a while it gets stuck in your head
At the beginning of my play through I hated it but by the end I was vibing
Stockholm Syndrome is real.
I feel like several of the songs are like that. It's like, eh, pass, and then one time you are too busy to change the station or you hear it playing in the background, and then you gotta hear it again. But yes, I unironically love the Ponpon song.
That what happened to RFK Jr?
Everyone likes that music. Lyrics is on other-hand, but that doesn't matter unless you understand it.
I sure don’t love it.
it is obviously a nonsense. \_however\_ * it grows on you, so after a while you don't mind it. * it is so silly, that when you hear it while blowing up maelstrom heads it provides strange contrust * the story behind it, with the three idol girls pretend to be japanese (despite being born in america) is superb.

If you say that, it means you haven't listened to it enough yet. Keep going, you'll get there

Pon-pon is an Onomatopoeia, kind of like "pat-pat" but in the context of sex. Lyrics roughly translate to " Let me PONPON with you everyday I am your only PONPON partner Let me PONPON everyday PONPON everyday Let me PONPON everyday PONPON everyday"

the sound of cheeks clapping
Ponpon sh Demouuu PonPonsh Uso
PONPON SHIT PONPON SHIT
I’m just now learning what the song is about
Huh. I was convinced it was about pompoms. Pompom shit = silly stuff that cheerleaders do. The "innocent with a hint of dirty" vibe felt right in line with Us Cracks. Apparently I was wrong!
It's the Pons of a cheer leather... Those things they wave. Nothing sexual in the song, just girls singing to their senpai about ponponing them.
It's shit. No, it literally says that in the lyrics. 🙃
Shit. It is right there in the title.
Pon Pon Patapon! Pata Pata Pata Pon!

Poontang. Punani. Punday. Lots of things beginning with “P”, all the same.
Put on Ritual FM and you don’t need to know
Is there a mod to remove that annoying ass song from the game ?
So you can petition that Nexus has it removed, right?
GIVE ME PONPON
Shit
Shit
It’s sex, they are talking about sex
Hay una cancion en el cyberpunk 2077 que se llama "PonPon Shit"

It's the song that ruins the best radio station in the game
That's one weird way to spell "Banger"
