Kyary Pamyu Pamyu – Invader Invader

This video features Kyary Pamyu Pamyu landing beside the Merlion and, just like the Merlion, spouting water—a uniquely quirky world.

Quruli – California Coconuts

The Koikeya potato chips commercial titled “This Man, Pure and Simple” features a song by the rock band Quruli.
