    This song came out when I was battling stage 3 breast cancer. This song helped. The cancer wasnt going to win. My babies were only 9 months old and 3 years old. Those robots didn't defeat me. Just over more surgery all these years down the line, but life is great ❤️

    Fun fact for y'all: Yoshimi is inspired by a real person, Yoshimi P-we, who is part of a band called OOIOO. The idea came to them when listening to her rather wild and experimental vocal style which they felt made her sound like she was fighting some kind of evil force. Look up the song "Ina" by OOIOO, and I think you'll hear what they mean :)

    Not 100% sure, but I think she might be the girl in the video. There aren't a ton of pics of the real Yoshimi on the web but there's definitely a resemblance. If nothing else, the person in the video was definitely chosen to look like her.

    Yeah once you realize what it's about it's sad as fuck. To me it's about the process you go through when your losing someone you love to cancer or anything like that. The childlike imagery makes me think of when I was a kid and my dad died. I spent years trying to figure it out and naturally it felt like I had to have something or someone to blame. Now I blame 3 packs of kool a day.

    I don’t know if it’s any consolation or advice but I saw them in concert last night. Before the final chorus they stopped and Wayne says something along the lines of “this song isn’t just about an Asian girl that fights robots. It’s about that friend or family member that has a task you know is impossible ahead of them. They won’t know that it is. But they are so strong and as their friend, you never tell them the task is impossible”

    The title character is inspired by Boredoms/OOIOO member Yoshimi P-We, following a comment in the Flaming Lips studio that her machine-sound abstract singing sounds like she is battling monsters-Coyne added 'pink'.[2] P-We also performs on the album. Some listeners consider Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots to be a concept album; however, the story is debated, as it is only directly apparent in the first four tracks. Despite the story-type title and science fiction themes, Flaming Lips frontman Wayne Coyne has made it clear that Yoshimi is not intended to be a concept album.[3]
