Songs (IPL)

[HayWire]

I just felt like it after hearing some songs
These are the songs I play while doing artworks

Some if not most are japanese,english,ect.

lets start

<a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03MMbRgYr2w' target='_blank'>3 Primary Colors</a>

This song came from Digimon Tamers

Translations:

Why do we have to fight?
I don't want to hurt anyone
If it's not a game, I want to quit
What do you think? I don't have time to search for a reason
I don't want anyone to steal it from me, do I?
I don't want to run away without fighting
What do you think? I don't understand now
But I know someday the day will come when I do Primary colors
We're still primary colors
Afraid of mixing with each other
Primary colors
Everything is up to our future selves
When we join hands
We'll be infinitely expanding colors I can't say whether it's right or not
But we're fighting to stay alive, right?
Those are the rules of life
What do you think? I believe in no one but myself
Ever since I was little I've been this way
I don't want to take off my sunglasses
This is me I'm not strong
But I'm sure that's okay for now Primary colors
Our feelings are still primary colors
Afraid of believing in each other
Primary colors
Everything is up to our future selves
When we overlap each other
We'll be brilliantly expanding colors No one knows
But surely that's okay for now Primary colors
We're still primary colors
Afraid of mixing with each other
Primary colors
Everything is up to our future selves
When we join hands
We'll be infinitely expanding colors We are the three primary colors

Comment:By Megumi Toyoguchi(Winry Rockbell's Seiyuu)who apparently sang in some of the songs in FF X-2

<a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEPyG9-CHOc' target='_blank'>Bratya(Russian)</a>

<a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lcisn2GJYlw' target='_blank'>Brothers(English)</a>

Still can't find a DECENT translation

Comment:<a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPGboOtFrk4' target='_blank'>Vic talks about the Brothers theme</a>

It's a "asking for forgiveness" type of song..really

<a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbB_pL-h1-Y' target='_blank'>Do or Die</a>

Lyrics:
Today I saw my hero fall apart,
The one who taught me to be strong,
On the outside I look fine,
But on the inside I am dying
My strength has overcome my pain
My love for you remains the same
The loneliness is setting in
I have no one to free my sins

It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's do or die
It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's yours or mine

Now it's my time to help you out,
Coz you were there when I was down,
It's hard for me to seal this way
Losing all your sanity
You helped me, keep my dreams alive ,
Without you how would I survive
It's time for me to be a man
Now I finally understand

It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's do or die
It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's yours or mine

It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's do or die
It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's yours or mine

I cant run anymore
I cant hide anymore
I cant run anymore
I cant hide anymore

Today I saw my hero fall apart,
The one who taught me to be strong,
On the outside I look fine,
But on the inside I am dying

It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's do or die
It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's yours or mine

It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's do or die
It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's yours or mine

It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's do or die
It's never too late to live your life,
The time is now, it's yours or mine

I cant run anymore
I cant hide anymore
I cant run anymore
I cant hide anymore

Yeaaaahh

Comment: None

For those wondering what I'm doing...Songs soothe the mind XD

Besides "You are what you eat...or listen to XD"

[Goat]

Yeah. Songs swing your mood sometimes. At least they inspire the artists.

I don't probably have any songs to listen, which is why my drawings are usually 'empty', LOL.

Those songs are for meh to get my mood to do some art...(I can usually sing to it)
(IN JAPANESE) wakekekekeke ...After singing it I learned to talk and read fast... With accents (still working on the Russian accent >_<...Bratya XD)

What I'll play today for Goatling's request on Chibi ACs...(going on war? XD)

Wanting to spit out the jarred thoughts is
Because there's no other proof of my existence
My future that I should've grabbed hold is
Conflicting between "dignity" and "freedom"

Because I'll see my limit over there
In the window of the excessively self-conscious me
There are no dates in last year's calendarErase and rewrite
The pointless ultra-fantasy
Revive
The unforgettable sense of being
Rewrite
The meaningless imagination
The driving force that creates you
Give it your whole body and soulAfter cutting my feelings that grew, I regret
After realizing that after all, I'm just a mediocrity, I cry
A depressed heart
A dirty lieErase and rewrite
The pointless ultra-fantasy
Revive

The driving force that creates you
Give it your whole body and soul

Comment:It's a lot easier to find the translation and transliteration if the anime itself is well-known ><...The band is floating

I don't draw, never had much of a talent for it. However, here's some stuff i usually listen to when doing random stuff.


Illusion by Invoice
El Hazard - The Wanderers

Ah Kimi wo hikari no tsubasa de dakishimete itai
Genjitsu yori mo ima wa densetsu no naka de kawashita
Yakusoku wo shinjite itai
Esu na tsuki-akari jigen wo koeta nani ka ga
Futari wo hikiyosete iku
Hirogaru sekai e to
Ai wa tabidachi wo imachikaiau yo
Ah kimi wo hikari no tsubasa de dakishimete itai
Kotae wa mou iranai
Ah itsu ka utsumuita kimi no sono te wo hiite
Kaze wo kitte hashiridasu yo
Kanpeki yori mo ima wa kiken no naka wo futari de
Kiseki dake wo shinjite itai
Romansu ni yureru machi unmei wa suna-dokei
Maboroshi wo karamaseau yo
Mihatenu ashita e to
Ai wa boku-tachi wo ima saraidasu yo
Ah kimi wo hikari no tsubasa de dakishimete itai
Kotae wa mou iranai
Ah Itsu ka utsumuita kimi no sono te wo hiite
Kaze wo kitte hashiridasu yo
Kirameku hikari no tsubasa de dakishimete
Hirogaru sekai e to
Ah kimi no eien wo ima mo oikakete itai

Ah Kimi wo hikari no tsubasa de dakishimete itai

English translation
All I want to do is hold your hand now
Fly together on the wings of the night
Speeding down a skyway in the moonlight
Where there were two of us there will be one
With every kiss we know a journey has started
We'll be unafraid and open-hearted
In a world of so much confusion
You and I must make this illusion real
Knowing it's love we feel
Stay close to me
You'll forget the city and the troubles of daytime easily
This is the way life should be
You are the one
How could I imagine any joy in my heart
If you are gone
Let this illusion linger on
All I want to do is love you now
And find a passion we will never forget
Someday I may lose you but, Baby, not yet
There never could be any softer touch
You make me tremble with anticipation
Giving me a lover's inspiration
In a world of so much confusion
You and I must make this illusion real
Knowing it's love we feel
Stay close to me
You'll forget the city and the troubles of daytime easily
This is the way life should be
You are the one
How could I imagine any joy in my heart
If you are gone
Let this illusion linger on
What could compare
Dreaming of a paradise, we let an emotion take us there
Soon we are floating on air
You're marvelous
Ev'ry time I put my arms around you
It feels more glorious
Let this illusion save us
Stay close to me
You'll forget the city and the troubles of daytime easily
This is the way life should be
You are the one
How could I imagine any joy in my heart
If you are gone
Let this illusion linger on

English translation
Once again I come back here to think
Remember a time when all I did was dream
The breeze that blows down from the stars
Carries me back to yesterday
(Remember) How blue the sky was
(Sixteen) The smile on your face
The thousand years ahead, you and I had planned
And I never have forgotten the promises
That you and I both made back then
Just as strong as it was, just as fast as ever
All the dreams along the way
Remember sixteen
The setting sun fading into the screen
You shook my hand as we said goodbye
With a whisper of ammonite
You disappeared between the buildings
(Remember) The smell of the fresh cut lawn
(Sixteen) The first kiss that we shared
The sound of heartbeats
Like thunder in our ears.
And I swear I've never ever lost
That passion-filled dream we shared
And whenever I feel down and my heart fills with sadness
I stop and think back and
Remember sixteen
All covered now with dust, that silvery guitar
Time after time, time after time
"You can make those dreams come true"
It seems to cry out day after day
And I never have forgotten the promises
That you and I both made back then
Just as strong as it was, just as fast as ever
All the dreams along the way
Remember sixteen
And I swear I've never ever lost
That passion-filled dream we shared
And whenever I feel down and my heart fills with sadness
I stop and think back and
Remember sixteen

English translation
Always wanting to shine, wanting to smile
even the plant in the corner of the room is healthy
but the friend who dreamed has given up
being relieved somewhere in the encouraging heart
I can still make it for the bus leaving for the beach
I feel like I can't miss it this time
Under the blue sky
I spread my wings again
the life you only have once
yes, it'll be a waste
wanting to be loved, wanting to love seriously
the small swing is swaying
but is that person my destined one?
even if I know, I feel uneasy and lazy
always getting lost in the neighborhood park
it's not that I don't want to hurt others but I don't want to hurt
myself
Looking up at the red sky
and being blown by the hot wind
even if I'm so free
it's sad that I don't fly
I can still make it for the bus leaving for the beach
I feel like I can't miss it this time
Under the blue sky
I spread my wings again
the life you only have once
live it as you wish
being embraced by the red sky
I chased the wind forever
I'll try running a different road instead

English translation
I wonder how it's been with you?
In the cold wind
I pondered a little bit
We leaned against a branch and talked, didn't we?
My body started to chill
and as the sun was setting
I ended up crying
And as if to protect me
you came and stood silently by my side
didn't you?
I felt like
your eyes reflect
a wondrous world
You taught me
how to dream
and long and such
I told you only a little while ago
even if we get torn apart
I won't forget
our dreams so...
...even though I'm far away from you
I don't want to give up
Even though we've always been
rivals
I don't need to hear any news
beloved friend
I don't tell anyone else
my foremost thoughts
We'll meet once more, right
beloved friend
I won't forget you
beloved friend


This one's my current fave although i stil haven't found any translations for it

[HayWire]

Has anyone notice(or I'm just slow) that most of the japanese compose love songs?

(Yes, I take the time to READ the lyrics and transliterations if anyone is gonna post )

[Fox]

Not only the Japs but apparently the rest of the world as well since almost 95% of all the songs ever composed are about love, in our form or another.

Here's another one. The vibe is just perfect for summer.

Most of my musics for now are instrumental, so I don't have to put any lyrics here because it doesn't have one.

Hey, as long as it's a song anyway my brother plays some of these songs when he does photoshope or corel or flash or director

Gonna be on my own
Kiss the parents good-bye
Gonna party from now 'til the end of July
Things'll be goin' my way
After today
Max: I wish that this was the day
After today

<a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d3HNiYRcGs' target='_blank'>Eye to Eye</a>

Set the world in motion
By reaching out for each other's hands

Maybe we'll discover
What we should've known all along(Yeah)
One way or another
Together's where we both belong.

Chorus:
If we listen to each other's hearts.
We'll find we're never too far apart.
And maybe love is the reason why,
for the 1st time ever we're seeing it eye to eye.

If a wall should come between us
Too high to climb
too hard to break through
I know that love will lead us
And find a way to bring me to you

So don't be in a hurry
Think b4 you count us out(ooh)
You don't have to worry
I won't ever let you down
(nothing's gonna stop us now)

(Chorus 1x)

If you're ever lonely.stop!
You don't have to be
After all this slowly
I'll be there for just you and me
Take a look inside and see

(Chorus 1 more X)

<a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tAgSUjS_QA' target='_blank'>Stand out</a>

Open up your eyes take a look at me
If the picture fits in your memory
I've been dreamin by the rythym like the beat of a heart
And i won't stop until I start to stand out

Some people settle for the typical thing
Livin' all their lives waitin' in the wings
It ain't a question of 'if', just a matter of time
Before I move to the front of the line

And once you're watchin' ev'ry move that I make
Ya gotta believe that I got what it takes

(Chorus)
To stand out
Above the crowd
Even if I gotta shout out loud
'Til mine is the only face you see
Gonna stand out 'til you notice me

If the squeaky wheels always gettin the greese
I'm totally devoted to disturbin the peace
And I'll do it all again, when I get it done
Until I become your number one

No method to the madness and means of escape
Gonna break every rule I'll bend them all out of shape
It ain't a question of 'how' just a matter of when
You get the message that I'm tryin to send

I'm under a spell, I'm in over my head
And you kno I'm going all of the way, till the end

To stand out
Above the crowd
Even if I gotta shout out loud
'Til mine is the only face you see
Gonna stand out 'til you notice me, yeah


If I could make you stop and take a look at me instead of just
Walkin' by
There's nothin' that I wouldn't do
If it was gettin' you to notice
I'm alive

All I need is half a chance, a second thought, a second glance'll prove
I got whatever it takes
It's a piece of cake

To stand out
Above the crowd
Even if I gotta shout out loud
'Til mine is the only face you see
Gonna stand out
Stand out, hey
Stand out!
(Yeah, yeah, yeah!)
Stand out!
(Hmph!)
'Til mine's the only face you see
Gonna stand out
'Til you notice me

Commenting all:All are from Disney and I sometimes play those XD

A personal fave of mine, this song reads like a history lesson from the late 1940s to the early 1980s. Still great to listen to after all this time. It didn't help that my cousins dragged me to a local videoke place in Ilocos during Holy Week and forced me to sing this one.

I am a question to the world,
Not an answer to be heard.
All a moment that's held in your arms.
And what do you think you'd ever say?
I won't listen anyway

Lyrics

Oh how do you do, young Willie McBride?
Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside,
And rest for a while in the warm summer sun?
I've been walking all day, and I'm nearly done.
And I see by your gravestone you were only nineteen
When you joined the great fallen in Nineteen-Sixteen.
Well I hoped you died quick, and I hoped you died clean,
Oh Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene?

Did they beat the drums slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down?
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest?

And Did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind?
In some loyal heart is your memory enshrined?
And though you died back in Nineteen-Sixteen,
To that loyal heart you're forever nineteen,
Or are you a stranger without even a name?
Forever enshrined behind some old glass pane,
In an old photograph torn, tattered and stained,
And fading to yellow in a brown leather frame

Did they beat the drums slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down?
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest?

The sun's shining down on these green fields of France,
The warm wind blows gently and the red poppies dance.
The trenches have vanished long under the plow,
No gas, no barbed wire; no guns firing now!
But here in this graveyard, that's still no mans land,
The countless white crosses in mute witness stand,
To a man's blind indifference to his fellow man,
And a whole generation were butchered and damned

Did they beat the drums slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down?
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest?

And I can't help but wonder, oh Willie McBride,
Do all those that lie here know why they died,
Did you really believe them when they told you the cause,
Did you really believe that this war would end wars?
Well the suffering, the sorrow, the glory, the shame,
The killing and dying it was all done in vain.
Oh Willie McBride, it all happened again,
And again and again and again and again!

Did they beat the drums slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march as they lowered you down?
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest?

Comment: It's an Irish song (read description for more info)

YOU ON MY MIND
Swing Out Sister


Friends say I'll get over you soon
Thoughts of you come back to fill me with gloom
Time forgets but I'm not over you yet
There's no sense of asking why
Until the tears run dry

There's no one but you on my mind
Serching for a perfect ending that we'll never find
If we could make it work this time

Years have flown by since you've been gone
This broken heart of mine's been waiting too long
All alone wihout you I can't carry on
There's no sense of asking why
Until I'm there by your side

There's no one but you on my mind
Searching for a perfect ending that we'll never find
If we could make it work this time
We could plant tomorrows dreams now together
In a garden to last forever more
All the flowers would grow
From the seeds we'd sow...

There's no one but you on my mind
Searching for a perfect ending that we'll never find
If we could make it work this time

There's no sense of asking why
Until the tears run dry
I could be there by your side
If you would only change your mind
If we could make it work this time


My 2 cents: One of my personal favorites, as its one of the songs I grew up listening to (I am a child of the 80s. ).

Although I could never really figure out if the chorus went "There's no one but you on my mind" or "There's no longer you on my mind"?

[Fox]

Some stuff my group and i have been practicing with. At least all i have to do is memorize the lyrics and timing, i don't have to be bothered with carrying around an instrument.

Ender - Finch
What It Is To Burn

Here I am beside myself again.
I'm torn apart by words that you have said.
And all in all,
I know we're falling apart.
Where did you run to so far away?

Here we are to sing you a song.
There you are asleep against the window pane
just like always.

You said you like to hear the rain sometimes.
And all I can do is tell you the truth.
And oh, my eyes will tell you the same.

Here we are to sing you a song.
There you are asleep again.

Grasp our hands together,
we feel we are one result.

And here we are to sing you a song.
And there you are asleep again...

Comments - This one starts out pretty slow but steadily builds up momentum until it lets it all out past the halfway mark. The lyrics aren't much but the sheer power of the chords are enough to carry them.


My Reply - The Ataris
So Long, Astoria

I got your letter and the poetry you sent me
Postmarked in december of last year
I really hope you're doing better
All of your friends close by your side
One step closer to recovery

I wish there was something i could say
To erase each and every page that you've been through
Even though its not my place to save you

I appreciate but can't accept this thank-you note
Thats sealed with your last breath
I won't stand aside and listen to you give up

If you'll just hold on for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold on, just hold on
You will wake up tommorrow

These arms remain stretched out to you
Maybe someday you'll accept them
Or maybe its too late to save a young girls heart that's long stopped beating

Wake up, wake up you've gotta believe
Wake up, wake up you cant give up
Time keeps going on without us
Long after we're dead and gone

I wish there was something i could say
To erase each and every page
You've been through
Even though its not my place to save you

I appreciate but can't accept this thank-you note
Thats sealed with your last breath
I won't stand aside and listen to you give up

If you'll just hold on for one more second
Just hold on to what you have
If you'll just hold on, just hold on
You will wake up tommorrow

Comments - The intro chords to this one are reminiscent of typical anime songs. Pretty catchy and all that.

Atlantic - Thrice
Vheissu

it's been so long, and tin cans and string for years
is all that we've known, could it be you're really here

'cause my eyes are open, and everything still moves in slow-motion,
breathless and blue, and behind your eyes the sea
oceans of light envelop me

but things can't be as they seem, I'm so far from home
this must be another dream, but my eyes are open

Comments -An easy-going song but very rich melody-wise.

My Heroine - Silverstein
Discovering The Waterfront

The drugs begin to peak
A smile of joy arrives in me
But sedation changes to panic and nausea
And breath starts to shorten
And heartbeats pound softer
You won't try to save me!
You just want to hurt me and leave me desperate!

You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had.
I can't forget, the times that I was
Lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine!

You won't leave me alone!
Chisel my heart out of stone, I give in everytime.

You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had
I can't forget, the times that I was
Lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine!

I bet you laugh, at the thought of me thinking for myself. (myself)
I bet you believe, that I'm better off with you than someone else.
Your face arrives again, all hope I had becomes surreal.
But under your covers more torture than pleasure
And just past your lips there's more anger than laughter
Not now or forever will I ever change you
I know that to go on, I'll break you, my habit!

You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had.
I can't forget, the times when I was
Lost and depressed form the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine!

I will save myself!

Comments - This is pretty easy, as i've got our axeman to handle the growls and the second voice. I don't have to strain my pipes too hard.


Five against the world - Story of the Year
In The Wake Of Determination

I never thought i'd see the day
That we honestly could say
We stand five against the world
And the doors are open
Through all those years
I would've died to be right here
I never thought of backing down
With one chance to make a sound

So we'll take our chance right now

These are the days we will remember
(These are the days we will remember)
And these are the days we won't forget
(These are the days we won't forget)
These are the times we've shared
These are the promises we've made
These are the days

Revolution dead and gone
Still integrity holds strong
We stand five against the odds
And rise through it all
Relentless form and dedication carried on
We stand tall and won't back down
With one chance to make a sound
So we'll take our chance right now

These are the days we will remember
(These are the days we will remember)
And these are the days we won't forget
(These are the days we won't forget)
These are the times we've shared
These are the promises we've made
These are the days
That we won't forget

Yeah we carry on convictions
Learning as we go
Living out the only life we know

These are the days we will remember
(These are the days we will remember)
And these are the days we won't forget
(These are the days we won't forget)
These are the times we've shared
These are the promises we've made
These are the days

WE WON'T FORGET
WE WON'T FORGET
WE WON'T FORGET


Comment - I only have difficulty on the last three lines as they have to be screamed out. At least the lines within the parentheses can be handled by the rest of the band, thus helping out the chorus with a little extra oomph.


Friday I'm in love - The Cure
Wish

I don't care if monday's blue
tuesday's grey and wednesday too
thursday i don't care about you
it's friday i'm in love

monday you can fall apart
tuesday wednesday break my heart
thursday doesn't even start
it's friday i'm in love

saturday wait
and sunday always comes too late
but friday never hesitate...

i don't care if monday's black
tuesday wednesday heart attack
thursday never looking back
it's friday i'm in love

monday you can hold your head
tuesday wednesday stay in bed
or thursday watch the walls instead
it's friday i'm in love

saturday wait
and sunday always comes too late
but friday never hesitate...

dressed up to the eyes
it's a wonderful surprise
to see your shoes and your spirits rise
throwing out your frown
and just smiling at the sound
and as sleek as a shriek
spinning round and round
always take a big bite
it's such a gorgeous sight
to see you in the middle of the night
you can never get enough
enough of this stuff
it's friday
i'm in love

Comment - We haven't actually tried this one out yet 'cause we still haven't finished altering the lines into a more punk-ish beat. I just love how New Wave songs can be easily converted into something harder.

Does anyone know where I can listen the full version of this?
