After the song became a hit in Japan, Mikolas decided to create a new version of the song with Japanese language and titled it “LALALALALALALALALA (Tokyo Version)” in honor of his Japanese fans. This collaboration was made possible by asking SKY-HI, with whom they had a close friendship after co-starring on a radio program, to write the lyrics in Japanese and sing the rap part.
