Days? Daze!

Original title: daze [ watch ]
Artist: Jin feat. MARiA from GARDiNELiA

( TV-size, Romaji and English translation, DRAFT )

Single in stores today! I usually don't post translations before lyrics are officially available but I got so excited just listening to the full version the other day.

Yep. It's been 2 years since the last post. And this is a Vocaloid song. For which a gazillion translations exist already. But I've been sucked into the entire musical + visual world of Kagerou Project since stumbling across this song by accident.

I am such a geek. I actually watched Blade Runner before finishing this.

From Arai Akino's recent double album release. Thought I would start with an "easy" one.

But yes, the amount of snow we've had (or should I say haven't had) so far this year is pitiful.

Yeah, so I'm probably the last person on the planet to hear Sakamoto Maaya's newest. I'm not that fond of Christmas-themed albums but there are some nice lyrics happening throughout this one.

Revision of another oldie. As mentioned in the notes, some of the events that inspired the lyrics have turned out not to have occurred at all, but the emotions and message behind the song are still genuine, and that's probably all that matters.

eden is still my favourite Arai Akino album, and the last track is still my favourite song on the album.

Original Japanese title: suna no kishibe [ listen ]

Have always loved the part that starts with "The cold white kisses of aluminum…"

That's enough, isn't it?

Original Japanese title: kakuseitoshi [listen]

Because the demotape that Arai Akino received when asked to write lyrics for this song was labelled "Kafka Song".
