Bomb Rush Blush is a song originally performed by Callie.
Description
Bomb Rush Blush is a fast-paced and exuberant pop song, mirroring Callie's energetic and playful personality. It can be assumed through the title and in-game dialogue that the song's lyrics are about Callie using a Bomb Rush, although the actual lyrics are nonsensical. The song was first revealed on 29 April 2016 during the second live Squid Sisters performance at Cho-Ongakusai 2016, alongside Marie's solo song, Tide Goes Out. The following day, it was revealed that the new songs would be unlockable with the newly-revealed Squid Sisters amiibo figures,[1] which were released on 8 July 2016. Scanning them in Splatoon allows the player to watch performances of Squid Sisters songs as if they were in a Splatfest, and Bomb Rush Blush is exclusive to the Callie amiibo. During the performance, Marie simply sits down, while Callie performs her song solo.
In Splatoon 2, Bomb Rush Blush can be unlocked in Squid Beatz 2 as the final reward from the Callie amiibo. It has a maximum score of 96 and 178 in Normal and Hard modes, respectively. In Splatoon 3, Bomb Rush Blush can be played in the jukebox if the player has downloaded the Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass.
Lyrics
The booklet included with Splatoon Live in Makuhari -Shiokalive- gives the official lyrics for Bomb Rush Blush. The lyrics are nonsensical; the Japanese hiragana simply gives the pronunciation.

Music video
Music videos for both Bomb Rush Blush and Tide Goes Out were released on 20 July 2016, in anticipation of the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest. The Bomb Rush Blush video features Callie dancing on various stages during the night time Splatfest theme. The dance is the same one from the Callie amiibo performance.
Remixes and covers
Bomb Rush Blush (DJ Octavio)
The song was rearranged in Splatoon 2 by Ryo Nagamatsu, where it is credited to DJ Octavio with Callie as a featured artist. During Splatoon 2's final battle (in which the subtitle of the mission is named after the song), Agent 4 arrives to meet a brainwashed Callie, who is revealed to be working with DJ Octavio, who brags about how he "remixed" Callie's brain, and in addition, her song. Together, they perform the song as they battle Agent 4, with Callie using Bomb Rush Specials with oversized gold Splat Bombs to coincide with the song. The song plays during the first two phases before it changes to Tidal Rush for phase three.
This remix is a complete transformation, taking it almost 20 beats per minute faster with a new instrumental that barely resembles the original. Aside from the vocals (which were reused), the track consists exclusively of orchestral samples over a jarring drum and bass break. Most of the track steers clear of the original tonal center and reharmonizes the melody to sound dissonant and foreboding. Many of the symphonic samples used are recordings of complete phrases from a vintage sample library that are crudely spliced and looped, creating a mangled and artificial sound that suits Octavio's musical interest as a DJ.[2] It also incorporates the melody from the Hero Mode - Onward! jingle heard after beating a mission, which has become the Octarian leitmotif. Near the middle of the song, record spin samples can be heard, reflecting Octavio's wasabi stalks scratching his turntables.
Tidal Rush
- See also: Tidal Rush
The song Tidal Rush by DJ Octavio, featuring Callie vs. Marie, is a mashup of Bomb Rush Blush and Marie's Tide Goes Out in the same style as the aforementioned DJ Octavio remix, the main difference being the return to functional harmony and a more emotional and uplifting mood. The drum break and tempo remain consistent with the previous track to ensure a seamless transition in-game.
Bomb Rush Blush (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)
See also: Bomb Rush Blush
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, a new remix of Bomb Rush Blush was made. It has an electronic style, not too dissimilar from the DJ Octavio remix. It was arranged by Tomoya Ohtani of Sega[3] and utilizes the Amen break, a heavily sampled drum track that is frequently used in Sonic soundtracks.
Samples and interpolations
Bomb Launcher Jingle
In Splatoon 2, although the song is presumably about the Bomb Rush which was removed in the game, a jingle playing the melody of Bomb Rush Blush can be heard whilst using the Bomb Launcher. However, it is only noticeable in Recon mode and the Shooting Range due to all the interfering noises in multiplayer battles.[4]

Trivia
- During the fight against DJ Octavio in Splatoon 2, Callie says through dialogue what is implied to be the lyrics of the song. During a player's first playthrough, she sings: "♪Blushing faces covered in pink!♪ ♪Rushing bombs, exploding ink!♪". Replaying the level again has alternative dialogue, in which she sings "♪Faces blush, a rush of ink!♪ ♪Bombs explode, no time to think!♪"
- The DJ Octavio remix of Bomb Rush Blush and Tidal Rush are the first instances of songs with featured artists in the Splatoon series.
