For that matter, many viewers felt that the plot would have been much better if Die Antwoord were cut out completely and the film focused more on Deon, Moore, and Chappie's growth. The song was played twice during the 2019 film Flatland. Unfortunately, between the Stunt Casting of Die Antwoord and the mostly-unlikable cast of characters, that idea is not well-served here. The moment they are united, the butterfly-shaped spacecraft appears in a hole in the roof and they all ascend it the ship flying away into the blue sky.

They finally encounter their dream-men at the end of this tunnel on a platform away from the entrance, and they briefly cross a chasm to get to them. Again, the girls leave the boys standing. At this point the band manages to convert the path they have already traversed into a 3-D tunnel.Īt one point they run into another pair of boys, and these are nerdy-looking teens around fifteen years old. Immediately the two begin forging ahead through the meadow in order to find their dream-men, two samurais.įirst the two girls run into two little boys around eight years old, and since they are too young the band continues their journey. The music video begins as the two band members Veronica Almqvist and Nina Boquist descend from a spaceship shaped like an orange butterfly onto a flat meadow with mountains in the distance. South African band Die Antwoord sampled the song in their hit 'Enter the Ninja,' having heard it on Dance Dance Revolution X. This version was released as a single on May 13, 2009, and was titled 'Butterfly '09 (United Forces Airplay Edit).' In 2009, the song was re-recorded with Veronica and Malin doing the vocals. The song also became an internet meme in the 2010s after being included in made-in-China toys. In honor of its popularity, the song was remixed for the franchise's 2008 installment Dance Dance Revolution X, a mix primarily intended to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the series. The song gained popularity outside of Sweden when it was included on the first version of Konami's music video game, Dance Dance Revolution and Dance Dance Revolution 3rdMix. It was written and produced by Robert Uhlmann and Robin Rex. ' Butterfly' is a song by Swedish bubblegum dance group Smile.dk, from their 1998 album, Smile.
