Ginger Root - Kimi Ni Mune Kyun | My Favorite ALFA: Play

Ginger Root performs YMO’s “Kimi Ni Mune Kyun” at Germano Studios | The Hit Factory, New York City.
MY FAVORITE ALFA is a series where we invite current artists influenced by music from Alfa Music to cover their favorite song, and then speak with us about what the song/artist means to them, the influence it’s had on their own style, and the general history behind the song, artist, and label.
Our guest this time is Ginger Root who performed “Kimi Ni Mune Kyun” composed by YMO with lyrics by Takashi Matsumoto.

“Kimi Ni Mune Kyun”
Composed by Yellow Magic Orchestra
Lyrics by Takashi Matsumoto
Lyrics:
君に胸キュン 浮気な夏が
ぼくの肩に手をかけて
君に胸キュン 気があるの？って
こわいくらい読まれてる
さざ波のラインダンス
時間だけこわれてく
まなざしのボルテージ
熱くしながら
君に胸キュン 夏の印画紙
太陽だけ焼きつけて
君に胸キュン ぼくはと言えば
柄にもなくプラトニック
心の距離を計る
罪つくりな潮風
眼を伏せた一瞬の
せつなさがいい
CIAO BELLO, UNA NOTTE CON ME, CHE NE DICI?
MI PIACI TANTO,
VORREI VEDERE COSA SAI FARE AL LETTO.
DAI VIENI A DIVERTIRTI CON ME.
君に胸キュン 愛してるって
簡単には言えないよ
伊太利亜の映画でも見てるようだね
君に胸キュン 浮気な夏が
ぼくの肩に手をかけて
君に胸キュン 気があるの？って
こわいくらい読まれてる
君に胸キュン 愛してるって
簡単には言えないよ
君に胸キュン 渚を走る
雲の影に包まれて
君に胸キュン 浮気な夏が
ぼくの肩に手をかけて
君に胸キュン 気があるの？って
こわいくらい読まれてる

[@madoromitime]

日本ツアーの東京公演で、キャメロンルーの尊敬する君に胸キュンを含めたYMOの曲を拝見しました。高橋幸宏氏が亡くなった次の日のLIVEだったので感慨にひたってしまいました。

[@midori-khaki]

君の日本語に、胸キュン💘
オリジナルも大好きですが、全く違和感なくて日本語の勉強頑張っておられるのが伝わってきます

[@midori-khaki]

ジンジャールートさん風味のRYDEENも聴きたいなぁ...

[@user-gd8ts4qe9c]

YMOさんの胸キュンは、景気の良かった頃の華やいだ雰囲気や浮ついた感じが魅力でしたが、
ジンジャーさんバージョンはナイーブでこちらまで切なくなリます。
まさに、胸が痛くなってしまう。素敵なアレンジをありがとうございます！

[@momoiunder17]

まさかのジンジャールート！？アルファの公式に出る日が来るとは！日本でもツアーする日が来るのかな、、、オリジナルも雰囲気あっていいので、ぜひ聴いてみよう！オススメです！最後に手をぐってする所が何かいい！
