First post of 2019, so happy new year! And for your (my?) joy, I’ve fixed the comiket number because I was one year ahead. A post about winter comiket would have been more appropriated, but (of course) I got sick and wasn’t able to go there. Hence, I haven’t bought any C95 album yet. Hence, … More 断章を紡ぐ序曲 ~ Imperial Circus Dead Decadence
How awesome is this cover. A big note about the song: as usual, ICDD write their lyrics in old Japanese for most. Which means, I should translate them in old English, using fancy words and possibly forms like “art thou”. This said, considering I am currently not even half way through studying JLPT N1, that … More 邪神の婚礼、儀は愛と知る。~ Imperial Circus Dead Decadence
THE ANSWER is so simple, yet such a powerful song. For some reason, whenever I listen to it, I feel at ease and very relaxed. It’s just as if everything is at its right place. And this is probably why I’ve decided to translate it. Title: THE ANSWER Vocals: yuiko Lyrics: yuiko Composition: Meis Clauson … More THE ANSWER ~ Primary
Even short songs can be so powerful, and each is such a great album. And right because this one is a very short song, I decided to post it today. I wonder if I will actually manage to increase the number of posts per week. Notes Title: RooM Vocals: yuiko Lyrics: yuiko Composition: Meis Clauson … More RooM ~ Primary
I’m not sure if it’s the rhythm or the lyrics, or maybe both, but I really feel like this song is sung by an uncompleted (or maybe I should say, failed attempt to create a human-like machine) robot –and thus, the title. Well, the whole album is based upon “living alone”, so I honestly expected … More Prototype ~ Primary
Remember it’s a doll talking. Or at least is the only thing I can think of, considering the lyrics. Notes “人形ノ涙” “ningyou no namida”, “A doll’s tears”. Usually I try to be as neutral as possible while translating titles (meaning, I try to avoid putting pronouns or anything else), but now it just sounded so … More 人形ノ涙 ~ Adresse + L-TYPE
Apologizes for the late post, but work is work. Since I won’t be able to schedule my posts anymore on Friday, nor on Saturday, from now on I will publish posts on Wednesday and Sunday at 20:00 GMT+1. Thanks for the comprehension~ All the screams aren’t translated because not written inside the lyrics, and the … More 劇愛の呼声が溺哀の叫声を喰らう ~ Imperial Circus Dead Decadence
“廻りゆく時間”, “meguriyuku jikan”, “And time repeats”. Literally, “The repeated time”, but I believe in the other way it conveys better the meaning of the title. Vocals: 真理絵 (Marie) Lyrics: yuiko Composition: Meis Clauson Arrangement: Meis Clauson Album: DastinIa Circle: The Root of Heads Event: M3-28 廻りゆく時間 いくつもの哀しみと憎しみをまだ それぞれの運命だと 眺めてた日を ikutsumo no kanashimi to nikushimi wo mada … More 廻りゆく時間 ~ The Root of Heads
“月ノ詩”, “tsuki no uta”, “Poem of the moon”. Title: 月ノ詩 Vocals: yuiko Lyrics: yuiko Composition: Meis Clauson Arrangement: Meis Clauson Album: DastinIa Circle: The Root of Heads Event: M3-28 月ノ詩 月よ 哀しき 光放ちて 時は満ち足り 今宵さざめく tsuki yo kanashiki hikari hanachite toki wa michitari koyoi sazameku Moon, thou light is bitterly shining The time hath come. Tonight will be … More 月ノ詩 ~ The Root of Heads
And with this I’m half-way. Even if it’s a little more than half because I’ve already translated “咎める翳”. Maybe I’ll leave a link in the next post. Speaking about links, I should really do an archive section, or better, a more organized archive section since so far I’ve never bothered arranging them and left all … More 走 ~ The Root of Heads
