Bubble Up is a song performed by Gummibär. It was initially released as a music video on April 6, 2012, then got its own single on April 11, 2012, and featured much later on the album Party Pop in 2015.

The song was eventually remixed and dubbed into many languages, similar to songs like I Am A Gummy Bear and Nuki Nuki.

Music Video

Trivia

• The music video appears to take place in the same house seen in The Yummy Gummy Search for Santa.
• The melody of the song is similar to a Hungarian folk song titled "Az a szép, akinek a szeme kék", composed by Sally Géza.
• On September 23, 2023, the original animatic was officially released to the public. There are many differences between the final version and said animatic:
  • The sequence of some scenes differs, and there are scenes that are not included in the animatic and/or the final video.
  • At the beginning, Gummibär is wearing a robe, which he removes after pouring shampoo into the bathtub.
  • Gummibär also wears pink slippers instead of the white flip-flops seen in the final video.
  • There is a removed scene where Gummibär grabs a life preserver.
  • In the scene where he makes hairstyles out of shampoo bubbles, the last hairstyle is styled as dreadlocks, instead of one resembling Albert Einstein's hair and mustache.
• A contest was ran during August 2012 titled "Bubble Up Remix Contest," which consisted in composing a remixed version of the song, only three contestants would be chosen for the final prizes.
• In 2013, a mobile game based on the music video was developed by bitOrigo, the same studio behind the animation for the music video, and launched on iOS titled "Gummibär Bubble Up Game". It would later be re-released on Android platforms in 2015.
• An alternate version of the music video features an extended scene where Gummibär is itching his back with a brush. It is used as one of the extras on The Yummy Gummy Search for Santa DVD release.
• On the Radio Edit version of the song, the main vocals are deeper than they are in the official music video.
• The Radio Edit version of the Greek language is currently lost, this is evidenced by the abrupt cut in the music video and the length of it on the album, Dance With Me.
  • In fact, it is presumed all of the Radio Edit versions of mostly every language this song was dubbed in (with the exception of Bańkę Łap, the Polish dub) are currently lost and/or unreleased and will probably never see releases nor be found.
