Shota Shimizu talked about his single "HOME".
So I got this article from Shota Shimizu chinese official blog,
hereI don't know from what magazine it was, but I just translate it with program, since I can't read Chinese!
And I just tried to arrange some sentences which were 'weird' to become more 'normal'...may be...
And don't trust 100% to my translation~~
But I knew, you won't trust it even just 50%...lol..
***********************************************************
So the title HOME doesn’t just mean about "home", but also means the whole life, every moment, every starting point, are put in as HOME.
The first single HOME wants to tell everyone about the constant passage of time, when you realize, the "now" has become a "past" unwittingly, which has a tight reciprocity.
Value is not become a matter, but I want to convey to everyone that my past has been accumulated to make me as success as today, so I'd like to thank for my past. In my own case I wrote this song in my hometown Osaka, there're many memories of people in my life in this story, based on my own experience.
For me, this song is based on past, present, and future, connected one to each other and become a story, this song may seems like I singing about the past, but it's also facing to the future, looking back to the past, thanks to the past, while looking for a new HOME. There, the continuous progress will make us to look forward and move ahead, is the meaning of this song.
When we growth there will be many things we’ll gain, but with the will to lose a lot of things of course.
Although it's not always true, but leave the HOME isn’t always express it is a new start, in fact, the HOME that time is not really their HOME for real. So just like the lyrics said, "By now can't back anymore", "As long as I can recall it, it’s enough," "one day I will come back".
And this song is more emphasize about time rather than HOME, this is what I want to convey from HOME.
And when I go back to listen this song, I moved, no matter how many and what kind of people I'll growth with, I create a story, no matter how many years, for me the HOME will not change, inside the song I want to convey a message to the U.S, will not fading. Although I always think about how to say to make everyone know, but in fact look at the lyrics while listening, you will able to understand what I wanted to say.
Shimizu Shota, sing with the whole of his soul, like an one legend in the million people. Do you know him?

personal comment:
I like the meaning of HOME is not just 'home'. And how he think he can be as success as now because of his past too~
No suprise that HOME's lyric became the best lyric in 2008. ^^
