CHEMISTRY - Yume no tsuzuki (english translation)



ユメノツヅキ / The Continuation of the Dream

Lyrics: Matsuo Kiyoshi

Come on everybody
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on
“CHEMISTRY, part two!!”

If the dream was something that we could reach easily,
Then we wouldn’t struggle like we were risking our lives to achieve it

Because of you (Two hearts)
My heart (Beatin’ high)
It was ringing out (As one)
I want to hear that sound again

Our meeting for the second time isn’t a coincidence
I was searching for you
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on

One more time,
Let’s start from that place
And let’s watch our dream continue on together
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on

This hard-knock life is catching up to me, so much so that I want to run away
If it was just a dream, it wouldn’t be this painful

To you, (It takes two)
I’ll entrust it (You and me)
My precious master key (We can do it)

This time, the journey has no final stop
It’s okay if we collapse, as long as we get back up
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on

One more time,
Let’s play that melody again
The pieces of our dream,*
Let’s pick them up and put them back together
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on

Our meeting for the second time isn’t a coincidence
I was searching for you
Oh, oh keep on dreamin’ on

One more time,
Let’s start from that place
And let’s watch our dream continue on together
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on
Keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on, keep dreamin’ on

Notes:
*This is the first single that CHEMISTRY released after returning from hiatus, and it's intended to be a direct sequel to their debut song "Pieces of a Dream"

ユメノツヅキ / Yume no tsuzuki

COME ON EVERYBODY
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON
“CHEMISTRY, PART TWO!!”

Kantan ni te ga todoku yume naraba
Wazawaza boku-tachi wa jinsei kaketari shinai

Kimi ga (TWO HEARTS)
Boku no mune o (BEATIN’ HIGH)
Narasu (AS ONE)
Oto ga mata kikitai

Nidome no deai wa guuzen ja nai
Boku wa kimi o sagashiteta n da
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON

Mou ichido
Ano basho kara hajimeyou
Yume no tsuzuki futari de miyou
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON

Nigeru hodo sematte kuru HARD-KNOCK LIFE
Tada no yume dattara
Konna ni kurushiku wa nai

Kimi ni (IT TAKES TWO)
Azukete ita (YOU AND ME)
Boku no (WE CAN DO IT)

Kondo no tabi ni wa shuuten wa nai
Taoretemo ii tachiagareba
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON

Mou ichido

Yume no KAKERA hiroi atsumete

OH, OH KEEP ON DREAMIN’ ON

Mou ichido
Ano basho kara hajimeyou
Yume no tsuzuki futari de miyou
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON
KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON, KEEP DREAMIN’ ON

MOP of HEAD - Good Time feat. Mukai Taichi (english translation)

This is pretty straightforward. Was totally sold on Mukai Taichi after hearing this track. Somehow I'd never heard of him before, even though he did a collab with SALU.



Good Time feat. Mukai Taichi

From now on, let’s stay together
Always, I’ll be by your side forever

Let’s stay together
If you raise your voice,

So we can have a good time

Tonight as well, you’re alone
You’re alone in your room
Those things you need to do,
You’re in the mood to throw them all away

I, I, I don’t care
Don’t say things like that, okay?
Here, everyone feels so good, feels so nice

I, I, I know what you want
What comes next depends on you
It’s best if you just give in

It’s best if you can let go of the bad things
And like that, let’s go

From now on, let’s stay together
Always, I’ll be by your side forever
It’s fine if you don't pay any mind to things like appearances

From now on, let’s stay together
If you raise up your voice,
You’ll forget about things like loneliness

Oh, it’s just a short phrase, “I like it”
Oh, I want to hear it, baby
Oh, in this moment called “now”
So we can have a good time

Let me hear you say like it, like it
Just like that, you’re going your way
Let me hear you say like it, like it
So we can have a good time

Let me hear you say like it, like it
Just like that, you’re going your way
Let me hear you say like it, like it
So we can have a good time

It feels like my emotions are bursting open like a fire
And if I look closely, I can see you’ve started to change too

Baby, I’ll show you
You don’t even know
Your true self, I want to show it to you

Wanna know you more
It’s still not enough
Raise your voice up louder

Let’s stay together
Always, I’ll be by your side forever
It’s fine if you don't pay any mind to things like appearances

Let’s stay together
If you raise up your voice,
You’ll forget about things like loneliness

Oh, it’s just a short phrase, “I like it”
Oh, I want to hear it, baby
Oh, in this moment called “now”

So we can have a good time

Let me hear you say like it, like it
Just like that, you’re going your way
Let me hear you say like it, like it
So we can have a good time

Let me hear you say like it, like it
Just like that, you’re going your way
Let me hear you say like it, like it
So we can have a good time

Good Time feat. Mukai Taichi

Koko kara LET’S STAY TOGETHER

LET’S STAY TOGETHER

Konya mo hitori
Heya no naka YOU’RE ALONE

LET ME HEAR YOU SAY LIKE IT, LIKE IT
WE CAN HAVE A GOOD TIME

LET ME HEAR YOU SAY LIKE IT, LIKE IT
Sono mama GOING YOUR WAY
LET ME HEAR YOU SAY LIKE IT, LIKE IT

Hysteric Panic - Venom Shock (romaji only)

The YouTube version is a bit different from the version on the mini-album, so there are a few lines around the middle that you won't hear in the video. Also, I couldn't really check some of Tomo's parts, so I'm not 100% sure I've used the correct readings for some characters or if he changed some of the words from what was written (the line starting with "Ni-dan...", in particular, doesn't sound like what's written in the kanji lyrics).

Points for working the phrase "anaphylactic shock" into a song so smoothly, though.

Tackrou and $EIGO's parts are in [ ].

THURSDAY'S YOUTH - Haurou (english translation)



這う廊 / Creeping Corridor*

Music and Lyrics: Shinoyama Kosei

Living a life without dreams,
There was no meaning either, and I was fretting
Living an aimless life,
Even though I still have nothing to hope for, it’s a “Beautiful Life”
If poisoned bread was being distributed, I would still hold out my hand for it**
I’ve hit countless obstacles and wandered completely off course***
Things haven’t gone my way, always

I’ve gotten good at playing the victim, but won’t you praise me a bit?
It’s not impossible, right?
Is help out there somewhere?

How low? Low? That’s right
These days I’ve swept up and thrown away
How long? Long? How long will this go on?
Today as well, I’m taking my tomorrows out with the trash

I’m sorry but, today, in this rain, “I need you”

Living a life without dreams,
There was no meaning either, and I was fretting
I’ve hit countless obstacles and wandered completely off course***
Things haven’t gone my way, always

I want someone to stain my boring self,
But there’s no one else here, is there?
It’s not impossible, right?
I can’t find the light anywhere

How low? Low? That’s right
These days I’ve swept up and thrown away
How long? Long? How long will this go on?
Today as well, I’m taking my tomorrows out with the trash

I’m sorry but, today, in this rain, “I need you”
“I’m going to see you” and yet,
You don’t want anything anymore

Anything anymore…

How low? Low? That’s right
These days I’ve swept up and thrown away
How long? Long? How long will this go on?
Today as well, I’m taking my tomorrows out with the trash

Notes:
*I think the image is like he’s creeping into a hallway of an apartment building to throw out the bags of garbage? Although I'm pretty sure the main reason he picked this for the title is because it sounds like “How low”, so consider that as part of the meaning – how low this person feels
**I think the implication is that this person is just hopelessly naïve/unlucky, but I’m not positive about this line
***Not sure I'm reading the “hate ni” here right

這う廊 / Haurou

Yume no nai seikatsu ni
Imi mo naku shousou shite ita n da
Ate no nai seikatsu ni
Nozomi mo nai no ni “BEAUTIFUL LIFE”
Kubarareru dokuiri no PAN ni mo te o sashidashita
Tsukiataru meisou no hate ni
THINGS HAVEN’T GONE MY WAY itsumo

Higaishazura ga umaku natta kedo homete kurenai ne
Muri nai ne
Sukui wa doko ni aru

HOW LOW? LOW? Sou sa
Haite suteru you na mainichi
Sore wa HOW LONG? LONG?
Kyou mo GOMI ni dasu boku no ashita o

Ima wa ainiku ame ni “I NEED YOU”

Yume no nai seikatsu ni

Twitter Translations: LIPHLICH

Added a few new ones today since I was in a LIPHLICH kind of mood (although the ones about "SMELL STAR" probably seem like lies now), but most of these are a few years old. Just wanted to split up my tweet translations post since it's getting a bit long.


https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_TAKA/status/1040990979606511618
Arai Takayuki: Police Story is god-tier.
Jackie is a god.*
So cool.
https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_TAKA/status/1040992999214215168
Arai: That being said...
Because I looked up to Jackie and I wanted to try to do backflips and stuff, I joined the gymnastics club...**
And I broke two bones.

^*meaning Jackie Chan
**I assume he means when he was in school

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_TAKA/status/1041279845894766593
Arai: It's a beautiful moon.
It's a beauty that even a photo can't convey completely.
It's a good night.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KOBA/status/1043699613771882496
Kobayashi Takaaki: There are just a few tickets left for my birthday show on November 25th.
Thank you.
Ju...just a few left!
There won't be same-day tickets!
It's a live performance in my hometown of Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture at a critical point in my life when I turn 30! Don't miss it!
There won't be same-day tickets.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KUGA/status/1040976422439813120
Kuga Shingo: My power level is 530,0000.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KUGA/status/1027205344567521282
Kuga: I want to continue LIPHLICH with the four of us: me, Shindo Wataru, Arai Takayuki and Kobayashi Takaaki, so I'm thinking that I want to protect it.*

^*This was after a post about how trouble with Wataru has delayed the release of their album "SMELL STAR"

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KUGA/status/997798763719675906
Kuga: Wa, I haven't tweeted in two weeks.
The painful lyrics are done, and the vocal recording is also done, so most of the work on our new album "SMELL STAR" is progressing.
"Don't think. Feeeeeel !!!" - It's becoming an album with that sort of "scent" to it.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_WATARU/status/998456476900343808
Shindo Wataru: Our next work "SMELL STAR" has taken the longest to create out of all the releases since we started LIPHLICH.
It also holds the record for most songs.
It's coming soon.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KUGA/status/488322306356166657
Kuga: Somehow I can see a pole being behind you in this one. Pole dancer ♫
Wataru: To be honest, I kind of want to try taking lessons.
Kuga: Yeah, well I think you should do it if you want to.

https://twitter.com/ada_fukusuke/status/503161879993131009
Fukusuke. (ADAPTER.): I received Wataru-kun's ass calendar.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_WATARU/status/503200716719009792
Wataru: I've gotten a lot of questions about the calendar, but if I have the chance I think I'd like to do it again.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KUGA/status/627475037344284672
Kuga: August 1st
"Gender Free" at Chelsea Hotel
We did it...*
Because of Wataru, we did it again
It was totally embarrassing
Embarrassing, totally embarrassing
But it can't be helped...
Thanks★

^*Gender Free is a series of events LIPHLICH hold where they crossdress. Kuga is not a fan of dressing like a girl. (Also, his drag name is "Christina" ;) )

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KUGA/status/627835088630235136
Kuga: August 2nd
The second day of "Gender Free" at Chelsea Hotel
This awkward second day is over...Aa, Wataru-kun, happy birthday!*
I love you & xxxx you ❤︎
I guess all's well that ends well
HAPPY BIRTHDAY

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_EIKI/status/674611276484489216
Maruyama Eiki: Kuga-san, happy birthday.
Both as a person and as a musician, he’s someone I totally respect.
Today I’m going to load up all my usual gratitude to Kuga-san into the sound of my drumming so it’ll reach him.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_EIKI/status/674949282550513670
Maruyama: Takadanobaba AREA, good job!!
Today was Kuga-san’s birthday, so I pounded the drums with all my strength!
Once again, Kuga-san, happy birthday.
I love you! (=゚ω゚)

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_KUGA/status/676424407707836416
Kuga: I think it's unbelievable.
I'm stunned myself.
It's annoying. Sad. Regrettable.
I wanted to continue LIPHLICH with the four of us.
Maru-chan, Maruyama Eiki is withdrawing from the band and disappearing from in front of you.
But LIPHLICH isn't going to stop.
Me and Takayuki Arai and Wataru Shindo will continue as LIPHLICH.
Sorry.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_WATARU/status/676422751373017088
Wataru: Everyone.
Following today LIPHLICH's drummer Maruyama Eiki will withdraw from the band.
How things turned out like this, I can't really explain it either.
I thought it would always be the four of us.
I tried to convince him to stay all the way up to yesterday, but...
It didn't get through.
Everyone.
I hope you'll remember the scene from that day.
I won't let LIPHLICH's fire burn out.

https://twitter.com/LIPHLICH_TAKA/status/676419249145950208
Arai Takayuki: [Announcement that our drummer Eiki Maruyama is leaving]
It's so frustrating.
Incredibly frustrating.
But, the three of us are still on the path to our dream, and we're going to find a new dream and keep advancing steadily. Because moving forward is all we know how to do.
I hope you'll keep supporting us from now on as well.

Twitter Translations: ROTTENGRAFFTY

Again, these are old, just splitting these out of my random Tweet translation post since it's getting long. I wanted to do some of NAOKI's too, but I find the way he writes really hard to understand.


https://twitter.com/nobuya_rotten/status/651636735412035584
NOBUYA: NOBUYA's official vow: Until the "Live Is Beautiful" tour is over, I'm banned from eating ramen. (Talking about ramen in front of me might put you in danger). I'm going to lose 5 kg (right now I'm 69 kg). Let's make smiles bloom at each venue. Looking forward to it.

https://twitter.com/NOBUYA_ROTTEN/status/656040237303394305
NOBUYA: The heinous red and black mohawked bassist from the Kyoto band 10-FEET, NAOKI-san, is tormenting me. (crying)*

^*He sent him a picture of ramen

https://twitter.com/hiroshi_rotten/status/718015111592456192
HIROSHI: So Nobu-jii* can exorcise the evil from his body, after tomorrow's live at Namba Hatch it'll be go-od-ni-ght for a while!!
I say that, but Kazuomi is also making lots of new songs, so we'll still be making tons of noise each day!!
Anyway, we'll be back once Nobu-jii gets an indestructible body!!!
That is to say, when he gets back, be careful not to make him angry!!
Don't worry, okay? ♪

^*This is a nickname for NOBUYA, it's kind of like "old man NOBUYA". This tweet is about NOBUYA's vocal cord polyp removal surgery.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BGlle7vo5Dd/
NOBUYA: In the middle of photography for something. HIRO* & NOBUYA. Father and son. That's what we look like, isn't it?! (crying)**

^*From MY FIRST STORY
**Even NOBUYA is constantly talking about how old he is

https://www.instagram.com/p/BGgN5jKlFUD/
Atsushi Yanaka (Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra): Yesterday's two-man concert with ROTTENGRAFFTY was a lot of fun. All the best to both bands! The picture is right after NOBUYA's jumping hug (lol)
NOBUYA: Because giving Yanaka-san jumping hugs is a skill only I possess *\(^o^)/*

https://www.instagram.com/p/BGgRzFrFFZz/?taken-by=a.yanaka
Atsushi Yanaka (Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra): And here's a normal hug.

https://twitter.com/NOBUYA_ROTTEN/status/783663966887157761
NOBUYA: The man-filled first day of the So…Start TOUR 2016 at Kyoto MUSE. It was so fun it was disgusting. Smelly and disgusting. It gave us a smelly bond. But HIROSHI after the live was by far the smelliest (overall champion). I want to do it again. Thanks for giving us such a crazy fight. We’re ready for the women tomorrow too. Thanks.

^This is about their boys-only live

Twitter Translations: Suck a Stew Dry / THURSDAY'S YOUTH / yorunitokeru.

Again, these are old, just splitting them out of my random Tweet translations post since I've done quite a few about this group of bands and it's getting long.

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/499564925052669952
Shinoyama Kosei: I like being called "cute".

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/517717953437921280
Fuse Tatsuaki: Note: The person doing the twin vocals in Suck a Stew Dry's "Katakana Talk" isn't me, it's Hajio-san.
https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/517719193899130880
Fuse: Because you can hear me sing lead vocals in yorunitokeru.

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/518424285556137984
Fuse: There is a band that I play guitar and sing lead vocals in called "yorunitokeru" (explaining for those that don't know)
I get asked "Where can I buy your music?" sometimes by visitors, so I'm just letting you know.
You can get it from here by mail order:
http://www.yorunitokeru.com/store/

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/518461531327959040
Shinoyama: Now that I've fractured my leg, I keep thinking about how tough this would have been if I lived alone and didn't have friends in the neighborhood.

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/518435121066565633
Fuse: Which reminds me, I forgot to mention it during my self-introduction in the MC. I'm Suck a Stew Dry's guitarist and MC*, Fuse Tatsuaki. Nice to meet you.
^*Fuse makes fun of Shinoyama a lot for not being good at doing the band's MCs, since it's usually the vocalist's responsibility

https://twitter.com/hajio_kikuchi/status/519303408541368321
Hajio Kikuchi: The season where we can wear light sweaters has come! Yes!

https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/532022200845348867
Fuse: From Wikipedia: Hajio Kikuchi (Born Jan. 3, 1987 (27 years old)) - guitar, chorus
I don't know who wrote that, but I laughed so hard.
https://twitter.com/fusetatsuaki/status/532022503384698882
Fuse: Because Hajio-san recently turned 31. He's five years older than me*...Ah, that was funny.

^*Fuse and Hajio entered university in the same year, so people sometimes assume they're the same age.

Shinoyama: This was written in a review of "Jibun Senki": "They lost what made them good in their indie era". But we're still an indie band now...lol

Fuse: In my 27th year I'm trying my best to:
-Write a lead track for Suck a Stew Dry
-Get nationwide distribution for yorunitokeru
Everyone, please lend me your support and please treat me well.

Shinoyama: When a good looking guy says he's not attractive, people just laugh it off, but when I say it it seems to really persuade people and it's like they go "Aa... you're right."

https://twitter.com/shinoyamakosei/status/710684811984297984
Shinoyama: It's interesting that there already seem to be more comments from overseas than usual. Come on, foreigners!

^*He's talking about on Youtube for their new video for GOEMON

https://twitter.com/hajio_kikuchi/status/763365576915898368
Hajio: Competing with good-looking guys goes nowhere, so it's better to just become friends.

^*This was after their drummer posted some handsome-looking pictures of himself in a yukata XD

LIPHLICH - FLEURET (english translation)

I'm not sure about some parts of this one, but I think the gist of it is there.



FLEURET

Lyrics: Shingo Kuga
Music: Shingo Kuga, Takaaki Kobayashi

No one knows
This tiny world that is only mine
No one does
You’re the only one I want to try to bring into it
Because you’re mine, you’ll never die
We’ll bring your memories along as well
No one knows what the future will hold

The night I woke up, I was stricken with grief*
An inferior shadow
A mole hiding its presence

I avoided even momentary contact with the light
Like a phantom thief,
I travelled through the night

No one knows
This tiny world that is only mine
No one does
You’re the only one I want to try to bring into it
Because you’re mine, you’ll never die
We’ll bring your memories along as well
From now on, there’ll be no more tears

In the spring, the migrating birds were sleeping in
I was waiting impatiently,
A mole hiding underground beneath a ruined castle

I could hear a voice calling out
That was definitely the reason

No one knows
The moment when your sadness fades away
No one does
Only you are eagerly waiting for it
Because I’m yours, I’ll never die
It’s waiting at the end of the rope
Let’s go to a better place

The sky I looked up at in the beginning is so far away
Like the heart that I averted my eyes from in the old days

Surrounded by vivid colours,
Cognizance becomes indistinct
The most brilliant one**
Becomes a small grey flower

No one knows
Even though you're beautiful, you’re in a windowless room,***
No one does
So I want to try to steal you away
Because I’m yours, I’ll never die
You’re not being taken prisoner – take this hand****

No one knows
This tiny world that is only mine
No one does
You’re the only one I want to try to bring into it
Because you’re mine, you’ll never die
I’ve received everything from you,
And an ideal future surely lies ahead

Notes:
*,**, ***, ****Not sure about these

Notes:
*Could also be “Keikoku, gasumore naka ni tsuki.”, but I thought the "chuu" reading seemed more likely for a warning about a gas leak. Guess I’ll find out which one is right if I ever hear them say the title
**It says 口, but I don’t hear any of the readings for that character. I think I hear something like "warau", so maybe it's "warai"? Keeping the meaning about a mouth, that's my best guess
***There's a line that goes here that is only written in the video – the first part is definitely “kusottare”, but I can’t make out the second word, so I didn't write it in

Good Morning America - Darwin's Train (english translation)

I think this one is pretty clear.



Darwin’s Train

Music and Lyrics: Shingo Kanehiro

Wait a minute,
I’m jumping onto the train of this era
If I do nothing,
I’ll be mowed down by change
It’s natural selection
You’ve got to evolve
The real me has already gone extinct

Darwin,
Darwin
If you can mimic well,
You’re going to adapt to your environment
Darwin,
Darwin
I’ve gotta pass through this
Today
And this reality

Wait a minute,
Which one should I transfer to next?
Lifestyles and ideologies – I’ve got my pick of both
“Is it okay even if I’m weeded out? Huh?”
The departure bell resounds
I don’t know which one is right

Darwin,
Darwin
Am I really adapting to my environment well?
Darwin,
Darwin
At best, I’m a monkey*
Why do I want to survive?

Hierarchies have no meaning to me
Am I fitting in? Am I not?
How should I live?
Only god knows the right answer
Ah

Darwin,
Darwin
Today as well, I’m practicing my mimicry
Will I adapt to my surroundings?

Darwin,
Darwin
Will I be able to survive?
Even if I adapt to my surroundings,
Darwin,
Darwin
I need to get through
Today,
And this reality

I’m on Darwin’s train…

Notes:
*I’m not positive about this line

HOLLOWGRAM - Don't cry for the knell (rough english translation)

I'm really not sure about some parts of this one, but here's my attempt.



Don’t cry for the knell

Lyrics: ryo
Music: yumeji

Tell me about your small joys
It’s no good when things end suddenly
With a nonchalant gesture, the memory escapes from you
Loneliness and anxiety take your hand and trace your form
This won't follow the story*
You already know**

The anxiety and love that seem like they couldn’t mix together begin to dissolve
Stop the sound of the bell that's ringing out to signal the end
Look, the morning that was in sight before is coming down to you
Bye bye, let’s meet again

On top of this clumsy balance,
Feeble complaints seem to grow
From the start, you didn’t need those regrets you piled up
The growing excuses you’ve adorned yourself with make it hard to breathe
The story is changing their meaning***

The morning glow bursts into the sky before your eyes
And it starts to burn away the painful memories
Change the sad tolling of the bell into a sound fitting for the moment you set sail
Hey, I can hear it
Love is raining down on you
The bell is signaling the thawing of the snow

I want your support too,****
Even if it’s in a spoiled voice, that’s okay*****
When you’re holding your knees under your arms and it feels like you’re about to go under,
Even if it’s an incoherent answer, spread out and look up******
There’s a future that transcends the story up in the sky

The anxiety and love that seem like they couldn’t mix together begin to dissolve
Stop the sound of the bell that's ringing out to signal the end
Look, the morning that was in sight before is coming down to you
Bye bye

The morning glow bursts into the sky before your eyes
And it starts to burn away the painful memories
Change the sad tolling of the bell into a sound fitting for the moment you set sail
Hey, I can hear it
Love is raining down on you
The bell is signaling the thawing of the snow

Don’t cry to the knell.
To alive a life at love to flight.
Flat for all clear good night.

Notes:
*,**,***,****,****** These are lines I'm particularly worried about. If you have corrections, feel free to let me know. :)
***** I saw someone else translate this as "Spread out the incoherent answers", and I feel like I'm probably wrong, but the way I read it was him asking the person to stretch out their arms and legs because they're curled up in a ball with their knees in their chest? I tend to get things like this twisted though.

Don’t cry for the knell

RYKEY - SKY TO DIE feat. SALU (english translation)

I feel like I might be reading some of these lines a bit wrong, but here's my attempt. I love emo SALU.



SKY TO DIE feat. SALU

Lyrics: RYKEY, SALU
Music: A-KAY

The sky looks so far away
The sky is too blue, and today I’ve started wanting to die
The sky looks so far away
The sky is too blue, and today I’ve started wanting to die

[RYKEY]
Today as well, my world is freedom
I can’t make anyone else feel it, this freedom
I’m just repeating the same days over and over
Today as well, the flow of time is freedom*
I don’t want to meet up with anyone
I can't even answer the phone now
Surely you’re doing better than me
Hello Mr. President

The sky looks so far away
The sky is too blue, and today I’ve started wanting to die
The sky looks so far away
The sky is too blue, and today I’ve started wanting to die

[SALU]
In this town, everyone seems to be happy
There's a Sunday farmer’s market
Even if I chat with the driver a bit or something, it’s no use
I get calls from my friends and have conversations about work
But I can’t go back to the day I want to return to
I’m searching for a reason to die,
But I can’t betray you when you’re waiting for me
Heaven and hell are both meaningless
Like this, I'll head up to the top of that building
Holding on tight to everything, I'll flap my wings
I just want to be praised by that person**

The sky looks so far away
The sky is too blue, and today I’ve started wanting to die
The sky looks so far away
The sky is too blue, and today I’ve started wanting to die

Notes:
*, ** I’m not sure about these lines in particular

管 / Pipes

Music and Lyrics: Yui

The thing you’re wishing for isn’t here?
Your bleary red eyes were gazing off into the distance
People are strange by definition*
If you could see love,**
I wonder if those entwined emotions would become like “pipes”

An irreplaceable world

We trace our scars to confirm them for each other
I’m heading into a night where I fall asleep listening to a gentle voice
But you’re not there smiling in front of me

The circuit map showing the countless lives piled on top of each other
The sounds of their heartbeats play a counting song that has a limit***
Love is strange by definition
Being able to become one
I wonder if those “pipes” are feebly and quietly connecting
I wonder if our “pipes” are connecting

The light from that dream future is too far away for us
Without being able to touch each other, we’ll live and die,
Close our eyes, and return to the earth

So we don’t get separated, we call out each other’s names
While I’m fearing the passage of time,****
I’m still being rocked by the warmth of our connection

Notes:
*,**, ***, **** I’m especially worried about these lines

Hysteric Panic - Neko jigoku (english translation)

There's a lot of slang in this that I'd never heard of before, so I'm not sure how accurate some lines turned out, but I did my best. Feel free to let me know if you have any corrections.

Tomo’s lines in [ ]
$EIGO’s lines in { }



ねこ地獄 / Cat Hell

Lyrics: Tomo
Music: $EIGO, Yacchi, Tackrou

Moe moe kyun!*

[I love cats and I’m feeling frisky,**
As expected, I like cats more than dogs
Like a Motai Masako, they make the husband happy so cats are good***
Cats biting at a cornered mouse like Tom and Jerry,
Stray cats holding fish in their mouths,
The neighborhood’s alley cats
The day when dogs cry out “nyaa”,****
Hesitating cats will be overrun!
Silver vine won’t be the deciding factor!*****
I’ll head out on another journey, playing with green foxtail and faking people out******
Everyone wants to be covered in cats, cats, cats, cats, and more cats!]

Moe moe kyun, it’s kitty cat hell
Suffer with me, look, 1, 2, 3
Moe moe kyun, it’s kitty cat hell
Bury me in caaaaaaats!

{Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so charming, aren’t they? ☆
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so cute, in other words, angels
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re seriously cute, aren’t they??
Let’s say it together “Ooh! Nyaa!” “Ooh! Nyaa!”
Urya urya oi!}
[Nyan nyan, fill your head with cats!
Let’s nyaa!!]

[I wanna stroke their soft fur!
So cuuuuuute, so cuuuuuuute~*******
The pads of their paws are squishy, they’re so damn cute!
Full speed ahead towards those cats~]

Moe moe kyun, it’s kitty cat hell
Suffer with me, look, 1, 2, 3
Moe moe kyun, it’s kitty cat hell
Bury me in caaaaaaats!

{Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so charming, aren’t they? ☆
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so cute, in other words, angels
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re seriously cute, aren’t they??
Let’s say it together “Ooh! Nyaa!” “Ooh! Nyaa!”
Urya urya oi!}
[Nyan nyan, fill your head with cats!
Let’s nyaa!!]

Oi! Raise! Cats!
Oi! Raise! Cats!

{Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so charming, aren’t they? ☆
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so cute, in other words, angels
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re seriously cute, aren’t they??
Let’s say it together “Ooh! Nyaa!” “Ooh! Nyaa!"}

Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so charming, aren’t they? ☆
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re so cute, in other words, angels
Nyan nyan, I’ll fill your head with cats!
They’re seriously cute, aren’t they??
Let’s say it together “Ooh! Nyaa!” “Ooh! Nyaa!”
Unya unya oi!

{Let’s go to cat hell!}

Notes:
*It’s like an extremely cutesy spell/exclamation that’s associated with maid cafes/otaku culture
**I'm not sure if this is correct or if it's talking about the cats loving the brand Friskies. Hard to tell.
***Motai Masako is an actress, so I think this is referring to one of her films – I think it is “Teacher and Stray Cat” (or “Finding Calico”), where Motai plays a woman that used to feed a stray cat and the plot revolves around her husband searching for it after she dies and it stops coming around – but I see another called “Nekonade” that also could apply
****”nyaa” and “nyan” are both the Japanese equivalent of “meow”, but I think you lose some of the cuteness if you translate it into English, so I’ve left the sound in Japanese
*****Silver vine is apparently a plant that attracts cats like catnip
******this is hard to translate, because the point here is that these words both have the word “neko” in them, but the English meaning has nothing to do with cats
*******Apparently this is like a sound effect for really intense, smothering cooing, like someone speaking to a newborn or a dog in babytalk? Not sure if that's the intended meaning here though

Booby Adventure - Finding (rough english translation)

I'm not very confident about this one, but this song is super cute, and I don't think anyone else is going to translate it, so here's what I came up with.



Finding

I want to run away, with my eyes downcast
Slow down, slow down, slow down, slow down
Lost in the fog, with my eyes covered
No matter what, continuing like this*
Slow down, slow down

The immense amount of happiness I was supposed to be holding in my two hands,
Before I knew what had happened, it had overflowed and dropped away through a crack
I reached out my hand, but I couldn’t take it back

I found you at last, and the light started shining down
In this kind of atmosphere, it'll get more and more starry
Underneath the spotlight
Let’s laugh it off, and go on holding on tight to our hopes
So that one day they can become peoples’ dreams**

Lock on with a one-hit KO beam, this is for real
Trying to take it? You're a freak that'll fit right in,***
It’s going to flow through your veins
Caught up!! In a booby trap!!
On a stunning stage, the crazy engine goes vroooom!!
Dance and jump, go wild and bump
Meet up, join up your charms and countdown to our wild dance
At the count of 5, up and down, 4, a blazing bullet, 3, 2, 1****

I found you at last, and the light started shining down
In this kind of atmosphere, it'll get more and more starry
Underneath the spotlight
Let’s laugh it off, and go on holding on tight to our hopes
So that one day they can become peoples’ dreams**

I was crying every day, so I sang
I was crying every day, so I laughed

I wouldn’t listen to that kind of pain
Because it was different from the feelings I drew out
I felt like I was the only person in the whole world that was alone

I looked out over my surroundings again
Rather than thinking, I started running towards the future
With tears pouring down my face, I kept searching

I found you at last, and the light started shining down
In this kind of atmosphere, it'll get more and more starry
Underneath the spotlight
Let’s laugh it off, and go on holding on tight to our hopes
So that one day they can become peoples’ dreams**

Eyes meet, which turns into smiles
We were meant to be
We take each other’s hands, and this place becomes one where we belong
So that one day it can become your dream*****

Notes:
*,**,***,****, *****These are the lines I'm the most concerned about. Some of these could be very wrong. Please feel free to let me know if you have any corrections.
** and ***** sound so weird, but I can't figure out how else to word them

More - Cheshire (english translation)

I'm not very confident about this one. I think it's a relatively straightforward song, but I feel like I'm just reading some of the lines wrong...

Feel free to let me know if you have any corrections.



チェシャ / Cheshire

Lyrics: Loki
Music: JUDYJun

Under the chilly crescent moon,*
We keep our voices down
Lost in the forest in the dead of night,
Let’s take each other’s hands
The grinning mad kitten looking down at us, acting needy,**
Invites us to join in by sticking out its velvety tongue

I’ve been taken prisoner
Embraced so tightly that I can’t break free
Entranced by that white skin, I’m bound and melting away
Staying like this, forever lost in a dream,
That’s not a bad idea, right?***

Ah, even if I open my eyes wide,
Its figure immediately conceals itself
But it’s a capricious thing****

During the soft and dim full moon,
We shout ourselves hoarse
In the pitch black room we’ve run into,
Let’s kiss

That’s it, let’s dance
Until the night turns to dawn and we wake up
When we’re entwined this tightly,
No one can get in our way

“Don’t leave me - never again”
Those words are like chains,
Eating away at me relentlessly like a curse

I’ve been taken prisoner
Embraced so tightly that I can’t break free
Entranced by that white skin, I’m bound and melting away
Staying like this, forever inside of you,
That’s not a bad idea, right?***
That’s it, eternally…

Under the chilly crescent moon,*
We keep our voices down
Lost in the forest in the dead of night,
Let’s kiss

Notes:
*,**,***, ****I'm a little worried about these lines in particular

チェシャ / CHESHA

Nemuranai toukyou, gozen reiji no, shizumari kaetta kensetsu genba de,
KUREEN ni kakaru mangetsu miage,
Hitori de ore mo koufun shiteru

SEXY?
HAPPY?
LUCKY?
OH LET’S GO
Kanjou hyouryuu!

Awa no you na setsunasa
Hakana-sugiru ai o motomete
Kurikaesareru imi no nai ENAJII,
SUKURAPPU & BIRUDO
DRIFT AWAY!

Sekai ga ussura shirami-hajimeru,
Yoake ga chikai ze touna kousoku,
AKUSERU funderu ashi ga tsurisou,
Kono mama ginga no hate made DORAIBU
Ano hi no sekai ga ushinawareru nara,
Aozora hyakkei kawatte iku yo,
Omoide kowashite jinrui banzai,
Doko made iku no ka kanjou hyouryuu
Zoushoku tsuzukeru TOKYO,
Nemuri o shiranai kensetsu genba de,
KUREEN ni kakaru mangetsu miage,
Kore kara asa made fuminfukyuu de

SEXY?
HAPPY?
LUCKY?
OH LET’S GO
Kanjou hyouryuu!

Awa no you na setsunasa
Hakana-sugiru ai o motomete
Kurikaesareru imi no nai ENAJII,
SUKURAPPU & BIRUDO
DRIFT AWAY!

WANIMA - Human (romaji only)



ヒューマン / Human

Music and Lyrics: KENTA

Naa doko de machigaeta n darou?
Yugami moto ni modoranai
Nejireta kioku o hodoku…
Saigo ni
Taguri yose…

Kitaihazure no genjitsu ni mata aorare
Nirande me o sorashita
Nande nozonda kotae wa doko?

Mada…kutabatte tamaru ka!!

Owari no nai michinori ni
Kotaerarenai koto bakari toomawari
Mogaite otona ni
Nomikonda kotoba kaidan o tobasu
Ukande kieta omoi ga
Taezu fueru kokoro no AZA ga
“SHIBIreru you na ashita o”
Saigo ni
Taguri yose…

Umareochita ikiru imi wa?
Seikai mo nai machigatte nai
Deai wakare ni senaka osare
Sekai miwatashi koko ni tachi

Nande nozonda kotae wa doko?

Mada…konna tokoro de kutabatte tamaru ka!!
Tsuzuki o egakou

Kawari no inai michinori ni
Mayoi no nai ikikata ni mata akirete
Tada akogarete miushinau mae ni oshiete kure yo
Ukande kieta omoi ga
Taezu fueru kokoro no AZA ga
“SHIBIreru you na ashita o”
Saigo ni nozokitakute

Owari no nai michinori ni
Kotaerarenai koto bakari
“SHIBIreru you na ashita o”
Saigo ni mata…
Taguri yose…

Naa doko de machigaeta n darou?
Yugami moto ni modoranai
Itsuka wa tadoritsuku hazu…

Saigo ni
Taguri yose…

Danablu - Christmas no yatsu (romaji only)

They posted this partially as a joke, but it's got that adorable DIY Danablu charm, and it's pretty rare to hear Nishiura singing in Japanese, so...



クリスマスのやつ / Christmas no yatsu

Machi wa kirameki
Yuki ga furi shiroku samete yuku
Tokimeki ni (tokimeki ni) tokidoki DOKIDOKI utsushiteru n da

Kami ni kaketa hikaru yuki de yuwatte
Tokashita no nara kimi no matsu basho e yukou
Mou sukoshi nanda
PUREZENTO ni negai-kome
Mou hitori nante
Morai naki wa iranai
Kanaete yo

Yuki no katachi o shiru to
Suki no akashi ni mieta
Honno sukoshi dake kon no sora no kake
Futsuka to motanai kiseki no yoru e to
Yuki no iro o shiru to
Tsuki no akari ni mieta
Fuyu ga tsuzukaseta hontou no kotae wa
Nan no koto wa nai
Negau yoru e no omoi sa
