Requests

[silkysullivan]

I love getting requests! (However, I'm only human, so please limit your request to about an album's worth of songs.) So if you'd like, post any lyrics you'd like me to translate for Kyokosagaki.com here. You can also reach me at kyoko.sagaki at gmail dot com. Either way, I'll let you know when I'm working on them and/or when I've finished them.

Thank you for all your amazing work!!!
And wow! Your own domain and everything~! Amazing! =D

May I request 2 Shooting Stars by May J.?

And would you be okay with requests for Hirai Ken? I have a list of songs that I can't find translations for, but I'd only like to request from artists you're comfortable with!

Thank you again~! Japanese music is so beautiful, but I have no talent with languages XP So I really appreciate that you take requests!

[silkysullivan]

"2 Shooting Stars" should be ready by the time I update on Friday.

And I could try out some Hirai Ken. Let me know the song titles and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks for the requests and encouragement. ^^

[jasminerva]

I had to weed out through the songs I REALLY want to know the meaning of, and make sure they weren't already translated (don't wanna waste your time! =) so sorry if it took forever!
Please do take your time on these: blind, Sayonara My Love, Signal, Tug of War, K.o.L., Come Back, Wonderful World, & Stage.
Like, seriously XD if you would rather skip a song, go ahead.

More importantly, Every Little Thing! (You have me hooked!!!)
If you could please translate Take me Tell me, Lien, START, & wonder love.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

*bows*

And sorry for being such a bother!

I'll try to translate all of the Ken Hirai songs if I can, but I just got one in before the update, plus "2 Shooting Stars."

Also, I think I'm just going to translate ELT's whole FUN-FARE album. I was thinking of doing it anyway, but you convinced me. XD But it's #3 on the list so I probably won't get to it until next week.

And you're definitely not a bother! I really appreciate the requests. :)

[jasminerva]

Could I please request Every Little Thing's Take Me Tell Me for your next update? I know you'll be getting to that album in due time, but from what I've been picking up with the few words I understand it seems adorable and has me at the edge of my seat.
Thank you!

[silkysullivan]

Sure thing. :)

[silkysullivan]

I figured since the translation was done but the update's not for a while, I'd go ahead and upload this for you. So here's the "Take me Tell me" translation: http://kyokosagaki.com/elttakemetellme.html

[jasminerva]

Holy cow, thank you so much!
Ahhhh it's as great as I thought it'd be! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
=D

[jasminerva]

Please, take your time with Hirai Ken! I'm just happy I'll be able to understand them soon XD

I have a bucket load of requests, though, but really it's no rush! Please take your time and translate the ones you enjoy~!

[silkysullivan]

It's no trouble at all - thanks for the request. ^^ The only one I got to this week was "Strawberry" but I'll try to get to all of them eventually. :)

[jasminerva]

It's no problem! I'm so happy you got to Strawberry this week~! Thank you very much again and again~! =D
And please take your time with the others. I've requested so much already lmao

[jasminerva]

Whoot! The new Ayumi Hamasaki album was awesome. I think she's found a balance between the new while bringing back the old in full force!

And Kana Nishino is wonderful as always.

Ooh, and the new layout is beautiful! I love the colour scheme!

May I request some Shion songs? The After the Rain album, Re: namidaboshi, Last Song ~secret of my heart~, and shunkashuutou?
And have you heard of Tiara? I'd like to request a bulk of her songs (which I'll have to go through and finalize lol so I don't waste your time) if you don't mind!

As always, thank you so very much~!

[silkysullivan]

I enjoyed the new Ayu album too. I thought there were too many ballads in the middle, but other than that it was really strong. But Ayu has always been and probably always will be my favorite, so I'll be happy as long as she's still making music. ^^ And yeah, the new Kana Nishino song and video are adorable.

I'm glad you like the new layout. ^^ There were I think more than a thousand files to code and I started to lose my mind at the end there. XD But hopefully it was worth it. I was sick of looking at all that gray. XD

And I've put the Shion songs on my request list. :) I've never heard of Tiara, but let me know what songs you want and I'll get to those too. (I'm still going to try to do the whole Yuka Masaki album too so I can have her whole discography.)

[jasminerva]

Hooo this is another huge list -- I'm sorry orz. They're not in any order, so please work on anything you want at any pace~!
As always, I'm so very thankful for all the time and quality you put into everything!!!

Tiara
Sweet Love w/ Mitsunaga Ryota, Yasashii Kimochi ~Ienai Mama~ feat. KEN THE 390, Re: Aitai feat. Asia Engineer, Slow Down feat. SEAMO, Kimi ga ita fuyu w/ Kohei Japan, Mirai e to, Tegami (originally by Saori Yuki), Something Four [album], Emotion [album], Flower [album]

**ACTUALLY I'd like to request this one as soon as you can OTL *Kimi Ga Ita Fuyu - K.J. with Tiara I love the beat so much...

Emi Hinouchi
Sotsugyou -congratulations- feat. Lotus Juice, Kimi no Tame ni, Diary.., E・S・C・A・P・E, O'kay, Painful, Magic, You were my everything, Crying, Freak !, You said

P.S. What is the "three year jinx" in Kana Nishino's song "Lucky"? Is it some kind of relationship hurdle in Japan?

Again, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! You are so very lovely~!

[silkysullivan]

Okay, I'll put those songs on the list. ^^

And yeah, the "three year jinx" is a relationship thing. I found an article about it (here) which explains it as, "About three years after they first start going out, a couple will experience a sort of 'rut'." There's also a "two year jinx" or "sophomore slump" (ninenme no jinkusu) but it usually refers to baseball players. XD

I got that translated so it'll be up on today's update. (By the way, the video for that song was hilarious. I loved it. XD)
