About

Ameno is a song written by French new-age electronica group Era. The track entered into meme culture nearly two decades after its release. First, it was popularized as a Twitch Emote stylized as "༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つAMENO༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ." Later, it became the subject of several YouTube remixes that imagined the song in different musical styles.

In late 2019, the song became frequently combined with the doge variant Cheems, Vocaloid character Hatsune Miku, and the pray emoticon (🙏). These remixes are better known through the lyrical part *"Dorime":/memes/dorime-cheems.
