[翻訳] Dir en Grey - 空谷の跫音

Dec 25, 2014 23:16

I bring another translation from ARCHE. This here is probably my most favourite song out of the whole album. It flows perfectly, which 濤声 also does, but... ah. Either way, after the 15th time of listening or so, I realized just how much that song is me. No wonder I love it ( Read more... )

translation, lyrics, dir en grey

Hey there, thanks for taking the effort to translate this, esp. with all the notes and additional information and all! :))) Good to see the fandom isn't completely dead on LJ. XD

outori January 5 2015, 13:57:05 UTC

Haha, you're welcome!
I know right? Seems like most people have fled LJ for one or the other reason. Idk, I like it here. I'll stay |D

If you like "additional information" you might want to check out my translation for Phenomenon, there's quite a lot of ... that... *SHOT*

songofcolour January 7 2015, 07:21:51 UTC

I did already read that one as well, actually *coughs* Thanks for that as well!! Very... in-depth. A___A Seriously, awesome job, thank you so much. ♥

I love LJ, but my friends list is completely dead apart from George R. R. Martin and like, one post in diru_tabloids every couple of months? u_u Haaa...

outori January 9 2015, 01:38:41 UTC

Ahahah, so you did huh xD
Thank you so much ;D I don't think I could have translated that one without interpreting it as well, there was just too much imagery there, and not very subtle either, ohoh.

Ah, same here. It's not just the diru fandom though, other fan-communities I'm on are practically dead, even though they're partially popular bands. It's like everyone's migrated to other places, idk where to. I hardly go on my FL anymore, I just use LJ mostly for my own random stuff, mostly to drop off lyrics and yeah.
Oh George, the number one character murderer ;D It's pretty much the same for me, one sort-of vip photographer I follow is posting, otherwise there's not much going on. Le sigh.

songofcolour January 9 2015, 10:38:02 UTC

I did read another translation before and honestly, I had no idea what was going on, so thank you for clearing that all up. 8D I think it really fits with the song, the first time I heard it I already felt it was a very sensual song, so I'm glad the lyrics reflect that!

I guess LJ is dying in general. It really makes me sad. If at least I knew where they'd all gone to. Some are on Tumblr apparently, and I like Tumblr but it's not the same. u_u
Haha I'm not even particularly interested in most of the stuff GRRM writes because most of it isn't even GoT-related as far as I can see ^^;

Speaking of which, mind if I add you? So at least there's some chance of activity on my FL (plus I get to see when you post a new translation :D). You don't have to add me back, if I do post I just post boring crap about myself and nothing useful, but I'd really love to keep up with what you post ^^

outori January 9 2015, 13:33:15 UTC

Ohoh, that makes me happy x'D Mhm, it's alllll about the rhythm... coughcough

It's been dying for quite a while :/ Maybe because the Russians took over? I've been inactive for quite a while, so I didn't really realize the change. I basically came back when it was deserted, hah. I did get the impression that lots of people changed to blogspot -maybe-, and of course tumblr (whichIalsolove), but as you said, tumblr is different. And I kind of dislike the blogspot style, it's not as... pretty as LJ... although that might just me being biased, after all, I've been on LJ for quite a long time 8D

I don't mind at all :D I can't promise it will be so much more on your FL, I come and go. I also don't mind personal "boring crap" either ;D
And I seeeeeee... Echelooooooooooonnnnnnnn heheheeeh

songofcolour January 9 2015, 13:53:34 UTC

Oooh yes, the rhythm and dat bassssss... 8D

I don't know when it all changed so much, either. I just realized sometime last year when "ARCHE" was released and all the interviews and videos and stuff were popping up on Tumblr etc. and nobody cared to post or get excited about it here. :( It's sad, this used to be THE place for my fandom...
I didn't know about Blogspot though, thanks for the hint! Maybe I'll try to seek out some blogs there... I'm really just so scared the overseas fandom is dying and that they won't come to tour Europe anymore as a result which would kill me X(((LJ is (or was) a special place, right? It's been almost 10 years for me on here now, too *ack* (Used to have another journal here before I got this one ( ... )

outori January 9 2015, 19:52:34 UTC

I honestly have no idea if there's communities on blogspot, to me it seems like it's just lots of singular individuals on there. Back in the days (uhm I think I started LJ around 2006, so yeah it kind of is that special place... deserted now *crie* I'm stubborn enough to not leave, it's like this hidden cave no one knows about anymore. That does have some advantages), when I'd ask people I meet whether they had LJ, lots of them did. The few past years I never heard that... ever... but some people I've met or reconnected with did mention they use blogspot or I just stalked and found out on my own ORZ, so there's that 8 ( ... )

songofcolour January 11 2015, 16:35:58 UTC

Well, finding some individuals would be great, too. I don't really have anybody to talk about Dir en grey with anymore. u_u Most people I know from the "old days" don't like them very much anymore. ;___; Or I've just contact ( ... )

outori January 12 2015, 00:58:41 UTC

Ah, there's wordpress too, yeah... but don't you find it so bland? D: Why would you choose those blogs over LJ *cry* ... Well, it is tempting in a way, but I don't need yet another blog ( ... )

songofcolour January 12 2015, 21:39:13 UTC

I don't know *cries too* So far I haven't found any "proper" blogging platform that made me go "YES I totally need this too" (again, Tumblr doesn't count because I don't really use it for personal stuff, only for reblogging fandom-related stuff - and you can't comment there either so no nice comment-conversations like this one here 8DI know a few people who were seriously turned off by Dum Spiro Spero. I do admit it's probably my least favourite album they've done >_> (apart from a few songs that I love to bits - and it's Diru, so it's still better than most other albums in the world 8D). I am so, so, so superultrahappy about "ARCHE", I didn't expect I'd love it THIS much. I feel like they've... hm "found themselves" again with it? Apart from "Revelation of mankind" which I don't overly love, I'm pretty much in lovelovelove with all of the songs on there by now. *sigh* When I first heard it, I felt like they had found the "spirit" of their old days again, but combined with their matured musical expertise... or something. XD ( ... )

outori January 13 2015, 00:50:06 UTC

Babble away 8D I've missed conversations like these 8D Look the comments get all squished up because there's so many I MISSED THIS WHEEEEEE *SHOT*

I love tumblr, but it's not made for lengthy entries, and as I have a tendency to write a ... ... a bit more than the average of people might 8D it's not really meant to be a blogging site in the traditional sense, heh. And yes, yes, the commenting like this... ok, it's possible on there, but not in an aesthetically pleasing sense, hurr ( ... )

songofcolour January 13 2015, 19:31:30 UTC

I MISSED THIS TOO, SO MUCH, YOU HAVE NO IDEA ;___; You're actually making me very happy with this, so thank you ♥♥♥My LJ entries have grown lengthier over the years, haha. XD Sometimes I look back at my very first ones and I'm like "Wow, I really wrote entries with like three sentences?" (and mostly also like: "Wow, I found this relevant enough to write about?" XDD) But these days (if I do post, which I've been lacking motivation to do, sadly XS) I write and muse around a lot. 8D I know there are people who do that on Tumblr, but I'd rather reblog GIFs of Dir en grey or Doctor Who, haha. 8D ( ... )

outori January 16 2015, 23:51:26 UTC

Shh, no, quiet. It's quite mutual, so |D Feels like I can pretend LJ is still alive ahahaha oh man (except for my FL it's still pretty much dead hah)

Haha, no I think I've always had the tendency to do lengthy entries. I feel like they've grown shorter oO' (but never SHORT I think xD) I know that thing about motivation... I think it's something you just get used to. The not-doing of it, I mean. I used to blog about every day I think... and not everything I guess was important, but still entertaining enough to write about. I could make a joke of everything though, heh. And it's good to have it, to look back on, you know? Like a diary. [I mean that's kind of the point of a blog anyway isn't it -_-] And I love writing, so there's that. Just sometimes things happen and you just lose every bit of... motivation, life, reasons to do anything at allso yeah ( ... )

songofcolour January 18 2015, 16:50:50 UTC

Same here, same here! 8D I'm glad it's mutual ♥

I love keeping diaries!!! It's really important to me. Not just LJ, but also actual physical diaries (there are, after all, some things that are too personal to share online :P) and all sorts of things to have some sort of "chronicle" of your life. I'm someone who tends to look back a lot, sometimes too much I admit, but I'm very fond of many memories I've accumulated over the years, so I'm happy I have LJ to remind myself of them! :) I really should start writing again. Even if nobody but me reads it, I think it makes you more aware of what's happening in your life instead of just letting it pass you by? But maybe I'm getting too philosophical here. XD

And OMG it's not rude!!! I've been meaning to ask but I keep forgetting! XDD My URL at the moment is inlukewarmcrimson, though I tend to change it a lot, but follow me there if you like! 8D (If I post too much stuff that doesn't interest you I won't be mad if you unfollow me, either ^^) If you'd like to tell me yours, I'll check it out ( ... )

outori January 31 2015, 03:42:10 UTC

No, I find that's the thing with diaries. Or in general, writing things down - it makes you digest it easier, you reflect on it and might even see a different side of it while doing so. It's definitely therapeutic. And of course also helps with inspiration in writing as well :3
I keep physical diaries, too. Not as regularly anymore (basically as irregularly as LJ ahah), but used to write it daily. It's so... odd sometimes, flicking through those pages that happened 5 years ago or so, but while reading it feels like it was just a week or two ago. And sometimes it feels like you were such a different person, too. I love that.
Sadly I have that tendency to stop writing altogether when something crass happens in my life, and so I've lost memories of certain things and how I managed to cope hah... oh well.

Followed 8D ♡ But of course you know that, it already happened a while ago 8DD And don't worr... or... worry? I doubt I'll unfollow you. I tend to keep following those people I've linked up with somewhere else, even though they might ( ... )
