"Muchi" is literally "lack of knowledge", "ignorance". I chose to translate it as "innocence" since, sometimes, knowledge can cause one's fall from grace.

Glad i could be of some help XD...i like this song a lot, it's a pity there are only 3 live versions (as long as i know): in the Sweet Strange Live film, the Xanadu live and Devil&Freud. They should be playing this song in every single show.

huh...devil & freud version? don't know that one either :|...i'll go look for it, thanks :)...yeah, they should play it more often...there are so many songs they've been playing for like, too many times, and so many good songs that they had only played a few times...speaking of which, i doubt they've played songs like chocolate or utsusemi live...can't seem to find the smallest trace of them anywhere...and i'd love to see "detarame yarou" or "hosoi sen" live..or "aikawarazu etc etc"...ah well *sigh*...

Here's the D&F performance...it's true what you say, some songs never get the chance to be played, not even in the fishtankers' only live shows...
I want "Chocolate" too!

*Aaahaaha, give her chocoreto...*
