    A sudden kiss in the twilight
    A tight embrace until moonlight
    I wont be taking any questions
    Wont let you ruin this moment
    Turning every sad goodbye
    Into movie scenes inside my mind
    None of this is going to last
    So take your time
    Dont hurry!
    🎶 🎶
    When you decided to leave me
    My heart was thrown in the fire
    I lived like there was no tomorrow
    My life was shattered to pieces
    I will dance the night away
    The disco music
    roaring in my ears
    Its a simply therapy
    A remedy
    Im sorry.
    💃🏻 💃🏻
    If you think I dont know what we’re doing
    Unaware of this game we’re playing
    I dont care if you’re
    Leaving or staying
    Youre not the only one
    Thats here to have some fun
    silver dress fits me snug like my lover
    Red heels take me away to another
    Little friends that helped me through a journey
    Watashi no koto wo kesshite
    Honki de aisanaide
    Koi nante tada no geemu
    Tanoshimeba sore de ii no
    Tozashita kokoro wo kazaru
    Hade na doresu mo kutsu mo
    Kodoku na tomodachi
    Im just playing games
    I know thats plastic love!
    Dance to the plastic beat
    Another morning comes

      Wholly crap you re-wrote the english lyrics better than the original. I dont think you'll ever see this but Roku you have made my favorite Japanese song into my favorite English song and its perfect! You truly have a gift and just wow wow WOW wow... Im in awe and thank you for making this its actual bliss.

      The English lyrics you composed are the definitive translation as far as I'm concerned. I did stumble across another cover on TH-cam that featured an approximate translation to the Japanese lyrics that went untranslated. Here's my translated English lyrics that could be incorporated into the rest of the translated lyrics:
      "I don't why or if there's a reason
      Every guy that I've met ever since then
      Asks me out, but they all
      Look just like him
      And I feel it bend,
      My heart starts up again.
      So even if my glass slips through my fingers
      Liquid flowing slowly down to linger
      I hope you never ask me why I'm crying."

      You missed the last verse.

    • @morisoba2550
      @morisoba2550 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This English lyrics is almost the exact translation of the Japanese one. And good singing by good voice. Great !

  • @TempusWare
    @TempusWare 2 ปีที่แล้ว +132

    I really like how you incorporate the Japanese lyrics in - it's so good

    • @kjminvestments618
      @kjminvestments618 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree. I'm curious if the reason why she incorporated the Japanese lyric in by replacing the part hinting the way she act like a woman of cold heart is a reflection of the unforgettable love to a past boyfriend. For Japanese, it deepen the sympathy to her purity and innocent efforts to forget about him by wearing icy mask. A kind of Enka concept.
      I thought this writer dropped the part as it confuses non-Japanese listeners as it makes the character too passive and wet.

    • @yushen11897
      @yushen11897 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      That part of the song is the most emotionally charged, whereby Mariya Takeuchi made herself very vulnerable by revealing the secret behind her nightlife pursuit
      I think Ren sang that part in Japanese to preserve the raw emotions associated with the original verse. Translating that bit into English may filter out some (if not all) of the emotional expression

  • @TheUnmaking
    @TheUnmaking 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    One of my favorite japanese pop songs. Good job re-writing the english lyrics to fit the melody

    I love the low/mature tone of your voice. Really fitting for City Pop, and very similar to singers of that era too. Subbed. Plz do more City Pop when you have time. I suggest September by Mariya Takeuchi.

    I just found your channel. I'm actually going through a break up right now during Christmas & the holidays. Plastic love has been my comfort song, because it helps me to give the break up a place in my life. The English cover you made added even more value to it, it just feels & sounds right.
    Thank you,
    Merry Christmas & happy holidays.

    "it will cure you" Truth! I had a roommate addicted to heroin and while he was going through WDs, I put together weeks of Anime on a playlist for him to watch. He had never watched anime before, nor cared one bit for Japan. Now he's a huge otaku, learning Japanese in college. It's been several years and he hasn't relapsed. Oh, his favorites from those he watched during his WDs? he told me Clannad was his #1. Tied for 2nd was Death Note and Code Geass. Close third was Nodame Cantabile. He said he loved Evangelion too.

    • @CalvinSzeMagic

      Clannad makes you so depressed that you forget about your addictions, what a goated anime.
