Trivia
- This is the first and only song performed for a piece of Godzilla media to be written in Sanskrit.
- In an interview included in the booklet for the Godzilla Singular Point Original Soundtrack, lyricist Goro Matsui stated that he had "Mothra's Song" in mind when writing "ALAPU UPALA."[2]
- According to composer Kan Sawada, Goro Matsui based the song's lyrics around the five major elements (godai) of Japanese Buddhist thought, with each tying into a different monster from the series. "Earth" represents Anguirus, "fire" represents Godzilla, "air" or "void" represents Rodan, "water" represents Manda, and "wind" represents Jet Jaguar.[3]
