Kanaria Vocaloid Producer Releases McDonald’s Fries Song

Kanaria, a Vocaloid producer known for his songs like “King,” “Envy Baby,” and “Queen,” wrote a song for McDonald’s fries. You can listen to the song via the official McDonald’s X (formerly known as Twitter) account.

The song is a full cover of “King,” his most famous song. However, the lyrics are different and the title is now “Fries.” The lyrics are about someone who wants to eat fries since burgers aren’t enough, so they go to eat McDonald’s fries while there’s a sale. This is one of several collaborations from McDonald’s Japan for its current fries campaign. Until November 22, 2024, you only need to pay 250 JPY ($1.65) for M or L sized fries.

This is not the first time that Kanaria produced a song as part of a collaboration. In July 2024, Kanaria wrote “Champion,” which was the final Project Voltage song. Project Voltage was a crossover campaign between Pokemon and Hatsune Miku.

Creators other than Kanaria who’re part of the McDonald’s campaign include Elu of Nijisanji and Irasutoya, a website that specializes in royalty-free clip art illustrations. Elu likely appeared as part of this collaboration due to her name, as it sounds the same as “L” in Japanese. As for the Irasutoya collaboration, there are gratis pictures you can use of people of all ages cheerily holding up fries.

The McDonald’s 250 JPY fries promotion is only in Japan and it will last until November 22, 2024.
