In 2000, the band released two demo tapes and played at small-scale lives, while slowly but surely gaining a positive reputation. In the following years Yum!Yum!ORANGE would work with bands such as B-Dash, 175R, SHAKALABBITS, and Stance Punks in various compilations and events.
Their first single, titled "Letter", was released in June of 2002, and "ORANGE STREET 33", their first album, was put out the following October. Both did fairly well on music charts and in sales.
Since then, Yum!Yum!ORANGE has changed vocalists and dropped the saxophone, and have remained a six-member band for over a year.
Cartoon Heroes
Yum!Yum!Orange Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Illusions of your fantasy
All dots and lines that speak and say
What we do is what you wish to do
We are the colour symphony
We do the things you want to see
Frame by frame to the extreme
They do the unpredictable
All dots and lines that speak and say
What we do is what you wish to do
It's all an orchestra of strings
Doing unbelievable things
Frame by frame to the extreme
One by one, we're makin' it fun
We are the cartoon heroes, oh-oh-oh
We are the ones who're gonna last forever
We came out of a crazy mind oh-oh-oh
And walked out on a piece of paper
Here comes Spiderman, arachnophobian
Welcome to the toon town party
Here comes Superman, from Never-Never Land
Welcome to the toon town party
We learned to run at speed of light
And to fall down from any height
It's true but just remember that
What we do is what you just can't do
An opera of craziness
A bunch of dots that's chasing us
Frame by frame to the extreme
One by one, we're makin' it fun
We are the cartoon heroes, oh-oh-oh
We are the ones who're gonna last forever
We came out of a crazy mind oh-oh-oh
And walked out on a piece of paper and
Here comes Spiderman, arachnophobian
Welcome to the toon town party
Here comes Superman, from Never-Never Land
Welcome to the toon town party
You think we're so mysterious
Don't take us all too serious
Be original, and remember that
What we do is what you just can't do
What we do is what you just can't do
What we do is what you just can't do
What we do is, what we do is
What we what we what what what…
We are the cartoon heroes, uoh
We are the ones who're gonna last forever
We came out of a crazy mind uoh
And walked out on a piece of paper and
There's still more to come and everyone will be
Welcomed at the toon town party
The "Cartoon Heroes" song by Yum!Yum!ORANGE is a tribute to the world of cartoons and animation. The lyrics speak of the cartoon characters as being what they are supposed to be, illusions of our fantasy. They are created by lines and dots, and they do what we wish we could do. They are our color symphony and do things we want to see. However, their friends are unreasonable and unpredictable, and they are all an orchestra of strings, doing unbelievable things frame by frame to the extreme.
The chorus reiterates that they are the cartoon heroes, representing those who are going to last forever. They came out of a crazy mind and walked out on a piece of paper, becoming part of the world of animation. By the end of the song, there will still be more to come, and everyone will be welcomed at the toon town party. The message of the song is to celebrate the fun and imaginative world of cartoons and embrace our own uniqueness.

I had no idea this was an Aqua song. I thought it was an original this whole time.
