Days 'til SCII: 4
Day 10 or 11, of my countdown!
Two things:
Continuing on!
6. Kiss & Cry
Official music video
The sixth song off of Heart Station. The song was used as a theme of the anime called Freedom or something, so this music video was made to promote it. I would have preferred an actual MV, but I guess this one is kinda funny.
This song was one of my first favorite 宇多田ヒカル songs! I used to sing it everyday before school my senior year of high school and it helped me get through those days better. That's why it's so high up on my list. ^_^
I love the beat, and the lyrics are so true to me. Also, this song is my #1 karaoke song! I want to karaoke this song so much! ^_^
English translation lyrics (courtesy of kiwi-musume.com, edited a little by me)
Delinquents and honor students and teachers
Are all the same when they fall in love
The bass drum pounding on my eardrums
And the comfortable clang of the high hat
The enchanting B section
Your smile is a critical hit to my heart.
Next thing I know everything's high tension
Come closer (kiss and cry)
Don't hold back (you are my)
Even if you get hurt a little (natural high)
Well, that's all right
Kiss and cry
I don't like feeling like the victim
I'll seduce you with upturned eyes 'cause we're in this together
Dad's been laid off
My big brother's on the internet
Mom's on a diet
Everyone's goes out at night
The moonlight healing their loneliness
Today's breakfast is Nissin Cup Noodle (XD)
Come closer (kiss and cry)
Don't hold back (you are my)
Even if you get hurt a little (natural high)
Well, that's all right
Kiss and cry
Don't worry, baby (kiss and cry)
You over think things (you are my)
And always being on the defensive (natural high)
Is so lonely
Kiss and cry
I just want to be happy
A little, just a little
I just want you to hold me
My weakness
At this rate
Nothing will change by my next birthday
I just want you to hold me
I don't care if I make a fool of myself
Don't give up (kiss and cry)
Just 'cause you got hurt a little (you are my)
Laugh it off and try again (natural high)
There's nothing else you can do
Kiss and cry
Have a little more courage (kiss and cry)
Show me what you really mean (you are my)
Even if it doesn't go well (natural high)
Well, that's all right
Kiss and cry
Next song in about an hour or so.
Two things:
- I was having problems with my computer yesterday, preventing me from updating my journal, so... 2 for the price of one today!
- Apparently, the 24th in Japan is a holiday, so the album will likely be released... tomorrow, actually! This throws my countdown off a bit of course, but I will still keep going with my countdown. The album was meant to be released on the 24th, so I will still act like it is. (Besides, I'm probably not going have the album for a while, what with shipping from Japan and everything.)
Continuing on!
