I had read somewhere that this song is actually a samurai's wife mourning his honorable death. Buuuuut it gets kinda confusing unless you consider that this samurai and his wife were soulmates, what with the concept of "I am you, you are me, and without you I am incomplete/broken/not myself."
My guess the video has two perspectives showing. A samurai that wanted to go home but died on the battlefield instead and a shinigami that seeing it all.
If you knew what he's saying, you'd be crying, very, very much, it's so sad and real. Even if you don't, his deep voice and feelings go beyond everything, and makes you cry anyway XD T_____T
Gackt has sometimes got a kind of bizzareo David Bowie vibe to him and I think this video is the best example. I mean compare this to Within You from the movie Labriynth and you'll either see what I mean or think I'm crazy.
Everyone talks about "his voice" and "oh he looks so great for his age!" But for me, I just love that whole "Oda Nobunaga from Devil Kings" vibe he gives off. If he is so good for being a villian. Can the people see a movie of Devil Kings? I may be just speaking for myself. But I would give it a shot on my big screen. XD
7 people must be tone deaf! This is epic! Beautiful....I haven't heard a song by Gackt I didn't like. I wish more performers and band had this kind of talent.
Watching this made me think about something that awed me. It must be amazing to be able to trace your ancestors back for 1000 years and be able to revel in their accomplishments and the richness of your cultural history.
micanikko I do know that for Japan, there are people in denial about the atrocities during the Japanese occupation of Korea and the Nanking Massacre for example. Meanwhile, others recognize the history for what it was and are work to use it as a lesson for how to behave in the future. This applies to all cultures.
Gackt eats once a day only 2200 calories with a low carb diet and works out 3 hours a day. He sleeps only 3 to 4 hours and he uses lots of skin care products. That is why he looks young.
Plastic surgery has helped out as well. We can't deny he's had it. His nose has changed shape dramatically over the years. Of course, I want to point out there's nothing wrong with plastic surgery, but he's still had it.
Sleeps 3-4 hours a day? I'm surprised sleep deprivation was a factor in looking young. Well, it's Gackt after all - perhaps he defies human biology entirely.
I like the world view of this music video. This is the Japanese samurai! I'm sure people from overseas will be impressed when they see this video. I think so. In fact, there are many posts from overseas.
He is one of my favorite singers of all time. This video is beautiful! You can really hear the depth of his music in every song he has, and his voice is just phenomenal. And, I am going to say it, he is a very handsome man, and anyone who has eyes can see that. =) It just adds to his wonderfulness as an artist.
Sweet Gods above, he still has one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard!! It's changed some since his days in Malice Mizer, but it's still absolute heaven to listen to him. I don't think I could stop being a fan even if my life depended on it.
I love Gackt's songs! He always has several diff instrmants in his songs which makes him more intriguuing. Hes not only based on one genre of music. He tries many other diff genres making him interesting and unboring! AWESOME~!!!
Times sure have passed in the years since this was posted. Beautiful 480 resolution on an already heavily compressed video. I have fond memories of listening to this song on my gen 3 15gig ipod having downloaded it from Myspace. Times sure have changed, but the song is still great.
Its not a real battle...its like he is in a dream reliving a battle, and loss of a loved one, then he probably commits Seppuku, also known less formally as harakiri, a form of ritual suicide that was practiced by the samurai and daimyo of Japan. It usually involved cutting the abdomen open with a short sword. Notice his alter character that is dark and the costume looks like a crow's wings. Here are the lyrics in English.While the moon hugged the sky frightened by loneliness I called out in search for you, blinded by tearsI could see myself laughing, reflected in your eyes In front of me was a smile that I'll never see againI can see you screaming in the darkness But you're too far away...Hold me tight enough to break me If I can see you again it can even just be in a dream Please give me eternal sleepWe'll meet again because we promised so Gently wrap me with love that's overflowing And give to me eternal sleepI can't see you...
RETURNER ~The End of Darkness~ Lyrics A lonely frightened moon hugging the sky I cried for you who couldn't see with tears I was laughing in your eyes In front of a smile I can never meet again I can see you continuing to scream in the dark Too far... Hug me so hard that it breaks If you can meet again, it's good in your dream Give me an eternal sleep Hug me so hard that it breaks Wake up from a dream and disappear Your smile and the voice you love too much I can meet again, I promised Wrap gently with overflowing love Give me an eternal sleep I can't see you I can't see you (by google translation)
2022年になっても、GACKT謙信を超える上杉謙信像が思い浮かばないです。
緒形拳さんがOKを出したんで当然でしょ😃⤴⤴
自分の中でGacktといえばこの曲。ふと思い出して2024年聴いてます。
2024年になってもまだこの人の音楽を聴いています。
私もです。
聴いてるー♪
確かこの曲で初めてのオリコン1位だったよね!
懐かしい…
Mee toooo
このモノクロの世界観、たまんないんだよね。
ガクトの曲の中でも1番好き。
このコメントがなぜ47件のいいねを獲得したのか分からない 😮
When your party is getting slaughtered but you're just a bard.
Thank you. I laughed a lot.

本当にCGみたいな顔、、美しい、、
His voice.
His VOICCCEEEEEEEE.
Xweetibird i heard
I heard
Jiiiiiiin!!!!! 😍😍😍😍
You should also listen to "lust for blood" Omfg! It's my 2nd favourite Gackt song! This one,"Returner"being my #1.
Hahaha I’d say the same! His voice!!! 😍
10年ぶりくらいに聴いたら名曲すぎて泣ける。
3:50お約束なのでとりあえず言っていいかな
殿！！歌ってないで戦ってくだされ！！
この曲の時の紅白スゲーかっちょよかったな🎉
孤独に怯えた月は空を抱きしめながら
涙で見えない貴方を探して叫んだ
貴方の瞳に映る私は笑っていた
もう二度と逢えぬ微笑みを前に
暗闇で叫び続ける貴方が見える
遠過ぎて…
壊れるほど私を強く抱きしめて
もう一度逢えるなら夢の中でいい
永遠の眠りをください
壊れるほど私を強く抱きしめて
夢から醒めては消える
貴方の笑顔も愛し過ぎるその声も
もう一度逢えるから 約束したから
溢れるほどの愛で優しく包んで
永遠の眠りをください
貴方が見えない…
歌詞 ありがとう
Thank you so much
Sueño eterno 🌬️🌱🪽
上杉謙信とても良かったね
GACKTさんはもっともっと沢山の人に評価されるべき人だと思います！
僕は当時小学生で母の影響でテレビで少し見てただけですが、今こうして作り込まれた楽曲や映像を見るととても感動しました！GACKTさんにしか表現できないと思います！
日本の歌の中で1番好きです
ルックスや歌が、本当かっこいいと思います
このGACKTめっちゃかっこいい！
イントロから
こんなにカッコイイとか...！
男でも惚れる声とイントロ
和の要素を世界観に巧みに盛り込んだ楽曲ですね。違和感なく溶け込ませているのがすごい。友人の誘いで7/2のさいたまスーパーアリーナでのライブに参戦するので予習します！
Gackt時代から、出す歌出す歌全て痺れる♪
I like how Gackt's voice is so gentle thruout such loud and powerful music it's really beautiful
Over a decade later, and still one of my favourite...beautiful...
Same
Same
東日本大震災のときに私が手紙を出して色々動いてくださりありがとうございました。Gacktさまの存在が私の生きる道しるべです。
心臓の鼓動が直接、頭に響いてくる錯覚に！
悲しいまでの戦国(現代)のしがらみを感じました。
当時CDTVのランキングで知ったものの曲名を覚えておらず十数年
やっと出会えた…！
かっこいいですね！！
和製セフィロスや…
G
GACKT謙信に撃ち抜かれ音楽番組で歌う姿に撃ち抜かれ穴だらけになりながらCD発売日に買ったのは良き思い出。他の二曲も合わせてヘビロテしまくってました。今でも大事に持っとります……ジャケ写もふつくしい……。
神懸かったGacktが綺麗で麗しくとても官能的で素敵です。😌😥😢😭
My Favorite Motivational music Video to counter my depression for almost 10years. Thank you so much Gackt! ❤
*screenshot*, *screenshot*, *screenshot*, *screenshot* ..
Nelco Cx Understood lol
初のオリコン１位になった時
とっても嬉しかった。
あなたの描く世界は魅力的で引き込まれる。それは現実を美化した幻想の世界。
やっぱ歌手やってる時が１番だ！！純粋に良いんだよ、声が、、！！
I don't know why but he's so pretty
Callmemonster10 he is pretty,because...he is pretty :-P
Because it's Gackt. The prettiest rock star of all time
Studio Contour and make up makes you look super fine
nah you know why lol
I always felt that Gackt has more misses than hits. But when his songs are good, they're awesome. And this is no exception.
well, to survive in the middle of war like that he would need high evasion stat
@@abcdefghijklmn8935 I laughed more than I should at your comment LOL
fr he needs to go back to his malice mizer songs mindset
errores? wtf, profundiza al respecto.
GACKTたまに取り憑かれている時ある。憑依体質
いい意味で、神だと思う。霊感強そう
がっくんきれい😍
和製ロック素敵！
GACKTさんの曲はシングル曲だけでなくアルバム曲も、何年経っても色褪せない！
いつも最高のパフォーマンスを心掛けているからだろう。

Even if I don't understand what he's saying it is still cool to listen to him :D
Gackt's magic.
Yup
the beggining is best
i think he's not even alive.. this is just his memories as a ghost, i could be wrong though
I had that exact thought...
I had read somewhere that this song is actually a samurai's wife mourning his honorable death. Buuuuut it gets kinda confusing unless you consider that this samurai and his wife were soulmates, what with the concept of "I am you, you are me, and without you I am incomplete/broken/not myself."
The song is from the perspective of a wife whose husband dies in battle.
My guess the video has two perspectives showing. A samurai that wanted to go home but died on the battlefield instead and a shinigami that seeing it all.
I feel like he's dying and reflecting on his life
I didn't know Orochimaru could sing
"I didn't know Orochimaru could sing"- the most important thing I have ever read LOLOL what is life???
Food lmfao 😹😹 I didn't know either
BRUUHHLOOOOL But I Luv Gackt tho D8
Lol
? You're mistaken my friend. This is Genesis Rhapsodos, SOLDIER First Class, one of two Commanders serving under General Sephiroth.
even though I don't know what it says, my heart can still connect with the emotions he transmits through his voice...I'm so in love with it
If you look up the translation it's actually quite a romantic song.
crei que era la unica
If you knew what he's saying, you'd be crying, very, very much, it's so sad and real. Even if you don't, his deep voice and feelings go beyond everything, and makes you cry anyway XD T_____T
@@vickymaison8504 it happened to me when I was listening to episode 0 by gackt
演出が神がかってて格好良いい素敵なメロディー
いい歌だ❗
すごいです！
GACKTの上杉謙信は最強だし美しい．．．．
I modded my Shogun 2 Total War to play this song whenever the marching stops and the battle begins.
That sounds awesome. Can you tell me how?
誰も上杉謙信（Gackt)を越える出演者なんて何処にも居ない。
かっこいい♥戦で、歌うとこ、GACKTさんが、着ている鎧もかっこいい♥♥
he's kinda useless as a samurai in the battlefield if he just stands there sings and then dies
crazypenguinbob Exactly what I said!
micanikko oops sorry I didn't read the comments...it was just the first thing I thought of. It wasn't intentional!
crazypenguinbob I wasnt mad or anything. xD i just agree with you.
+crazypenguinbob He was their moral support! :p
reavernk I dont think he was healing anybody anyway. lol.
omg I feel like Gackupo is alive
Of course Gackt really WILL die because.. just look at him!
He's an easy target just standing and singing there. xD
Yeah it's true story
I know, and no helmet? I could have cut his head off easy. My question is, Why stab him in the back?
I don't know
Catherine Chandler xD probably cuz it looks badass and more dramatic that way.
No he's too awesome to live
Gackt has sometimes got a kind of bizzareo David Bowie vibe to him and I think this video is the best example.
I mean compare this to Within You from the movie Labriynth and you'll either see what I mean or think I'm crazy.
Omg, when I first saw him on the nhk red and white show nearly 2 decades ago I said the same damn thing!!
私はいつも彼を愛しています
うたすごい！
he's so beautiful
この嘆かわしい美声を聴くと、俺の闇の鼓動を感じるよ 熱いよガクト
混沌とした石瑞を纏ったその唸りを、憤りを味わってほしい限りだ。
Everyone talks about "his voice" and "oh he looks so great for his age!" But for me, I just love that whole "Oda Nobunaga from Devil Kings" vibe he gives off. If he is so good for being a villian. Can the people see a movie of Devil Kings? I may be just speaking for myself. But I would give it a shot on my big screen. XD
To me by his looks he reminds me more of Kojiro Sasaki.
I love the Anime too ^_^ Just love Anime's that have video game's. Ahh!!!
moral of the story: sing on a battle feald, you'll be the last one standing.
7 people must be tone deaf! This is epic! Beautiful....I haven't heard a song by Gackt I didn't like. I wish more performers and band had this kind of talent.
GACKTとDAIGOは歌ってるところがむちゃくちゃかっこいいのに、
キャラクターが強烈だからタレントが本業だと思ってる人がいそう
それはそれでいいことですが、ファンとしては複雑ですw
Watching this made me think about something that awed me. It must be amazing to be able to trace your ancestors back for 1000 years and be able to revel in their accomplishments and the richness of your cultural history.
HadassaMoon144 Also you get to see their fails and brutality.
micanikko True. All cultures have those. It gives people someone to learn from as long as there isn't denial.
HadassaMoon144 How so?
micanikko I do know that for Japan, there are people in denial about the atrocities during the Japanese occupation of Korea and the Nanking Massacre for example. Meanwhile, others recognize the history for what it was and are work to use it as a lesson for how to behave in the future. This applies to all cultures.
HadassaMoon144 I guess so. I see your point.
Gackt eats once a day only 2200 calories with a low carb diet and works out 3 hours a day. He sleeps only 3 to 4 hours and he uses lots of skin care products. That is why he looks young.
There are asian people his age that don't look as young.
Plastic surgery has helped out as well. We can't deny he's had it. His nose has changed shape dramatically over the years. Of course, I want to point out there's nothing wrong with plastic surgery, but he's still had it.
Also permanent hair removal. He doesn't have hair on his body.
Ixionic But most Asians don't seem to..
Sleeps 3-4 hours a day? I'm surprised sleep deprivation was a factor in looking young. Well, it's Gackt after all - perhaps he defies human biology entirely.
He is still a beautiful man with a magnificent voice!
かっこいい！
I like the world view of this music video. This is the Japanese samurai! I'm sure people from overseas will be impressed when they see this video. I think so. In fact, there are many posts from overseas.
渋くてクウルで素敵な1曲。片目が見えない謙信公。何度聴いても飽きない。
Still listening to gackt in 2021, damn it's been a while since i started
眠り、狂四郎と、源義経の、舞台も、死ぬほどかっこよくて、感動しました❗
This video needs to be remastered!!! 🌟 🌟
Gackt謙信
Anyone else think he could pass as Vincent Valentine?
But... He's Genesis.
So many years have passed and I still can’t get over the fact that this song and mv is a pure masterpiece ❤️
Still gives me chills to this day.
WHO'S STILL LISTENING TO THIS IN 2019???
HELL YEAH! NEVER GONNA STOP COMING BACK TO GACKT
yes
Yes... I wish he would make more Samurai themed songs...
2020 yoo
I want him... that voice can sing me to sleep every night.
How many just had a mini heart attack from watching him die even though we all know its fake?
I think I even shed a tear.
He is one of my favorite singers of all time. This video is beautiful! You can really hear the depth of his music in every song he has, and his voice is just phenomenal. And, I am going to say it, he is a very handsome man, and anyone who has eyes can see that. =) It just adds to his wonderfulness as an artist.
GACKTの戦国の歌どれも好き!
エピソード０も最高だった！
鬼滅の刃でGACKTモデルのキャラ出てほしいわ〜絶対カッコいいわ〜
I love Gackt
This. Man. Is. A. God. Gackt forever! I totally think him and Hyde should do another song together. That would send me straight to heaven
Orenji no Taiyou 🙂
Do you really have to die in almost every video? Gackt you're killing me TT-TT
it's dramatic.
Sweet Gods above, he still has one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard!! It's changed some since his days in Malice Mizer, but it's still absolute heaven to listen to him. I don't think I could stop being a fan even if my life depended on it.

何やっても絵になるねぇ➰😃🌹
かっちょいー🎵
かっこよすぎ！！
I would love to see a drama series taking place in the Sengoku Jidai about Nobunaga Oda and his officers with Gackt playing Mitsuhide Akechi.
I play Ghost of Tsushima with this on repeat
Times sure have passed in the years since this was posted. Beautiful 480 resolution on an already heavily compressed video. I have fond memories of listening to this song on my gen 3 15gig ipod having downloaded it from Myspace.
Times sure have changed, but the song is still great.
武士の誇りとともに 自己の信念曲げずに 死を潔しとする 日本のサムライ 今度は私が死なせない 愛に生きるサムライに甦れ 闇の終焉 もう敵はいない 愛するものを守るための戦いは終わり 愛する恐怖NOHOUGA大きかったかも 両思いだと問題ないね ^^* GACKT さんアリガトウ
過去性で、戦った記憶が残っていて、思わず動画に見いってしまいました。早く忘れたいのに…
Its not a real battle...its like he is in a dream reliving a battle, and loss of a loved one, then he probably commits Seppuku, also known less formally as harakiri, a form of ritual suicide that was practiced by the samurai and daimyo of Japan. It usually involved cutting the abdomen open with a short sword. Notice his alter character that is dark and the costume looks like a crow's wings. Here are the lyrics in English.While the moon hugged the sky frightened by loneliness
I called out in search for you, blinded by tearsI could see myself laughing, reflected in your eyes
In front of me was a smile that I'll never see againI can see you screaming in the darkness
But you're too far away...Hold me tight enough to break me
If I can see you again it can even just be in a dream
Please give me eternal sleepWe'll meet again because we promised so
Gently wrap me with love that's overflowing
And give to me eternal sleepI can't see you...
The air instrument at the start reminds of the Terminator theme; the song name, 'Returner", seems to suggest it was a deliberate song design choice
I REALLY want Gackt to come to A-Kon along with Babymetal!
Gackt = Greatest living artist I can think of
Gackt will still be hot even after you die, remember people the Japanese are immortal which is why they're awesome..
Hello Gackt. Miss you. Coming back to watch this in 2023.
He's like friggen 37 years old by now, how can he still be so perfect and young and beautiful? I think he's some kind of spirit or something...
50 now...
DUDE I heard this song as Gackpoid I DIDN'T KNEW GACKT WAS THE ORIGINAL!! YES PLEASE
I love this song still till this day
gackt's voice is amazing. he is one of those artist that doesn't appear very often
This song always stuck with me for some reason
RETURNER ~The End of Darkness~
Lyrics
A lonely frightened moon hugging the sky
I cried for you who couldn't see with tears
I was laughing in your eyes
In front of a smile I can never meet again
I can see you continuing to scream in the dark
Too far...
Hug me so hard that it breaks
If you can meet again, it's good in your dream
Give me an eternal sleep
Hug me so hard that it breaks
Wake up from a dream and disappear
Your smile and the voice you love too much
I can meet again, I promised
Wrap gently with overflowing love
Give me an eternal sleep
I can't see you
I can't see you
