(apparently the original is blocked in the US, here’s the niconico link : www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm31791630 ) AND CREDIT WOWAKA OR BE SHUNNED FROM THIS CHANNEL
Things :
1 I'm sure “unknown mother goose” is related to, or a fancy way of saying “story unknown to all”
2 I think the garbled synth-y bit towards 2:09 is saying “Pick me up, Pick me up again”
3 There's a lot vague “this” and “that’ -ing here keeping the details vague, but I suppose as members of the vocaloid community we’re supposed to fill those blanks :^)
4 some of the lines are /grammatically/ vague too, I’ve left some alternate interpretations on some of bits I found more… obtuse to translate. (note some are kinda a stretch, I guess I just want to be very transparent in letting ppl interpret this in the way they feel best… because… you know)
5 the original japanese text on the top was actually mirrored not upsidedown, but I don’t know how to mirror font in aegisub rip rip rip
6 I’ve finally got a replacement for taking requests, you can now suggest/vote on possible translations here : www.tricider.com/brainstorming... ! (I’m still setting it up a bit but check the description there for more info)
7 EDIT: 'This story unknown to all' is what the second to last line should be (I accidentally put 'the story'/'that story' in the subs and lyrics ;-; I'll correct in the morning)

Yes!Orangestar! That's my favorite producer!
Just ordered the album! I'm so, so excited!
Forgetfulsubs is it possible to download this for MP3 or play it on American CD drives?
I haven't seen anything about a digital/download release, but as far as I know, audio CDs are region free so they ((should)) work in an American CD drive.

You, an intellectual: *reads the subtitles on the top*

"long time no see, wowaka here"
the fact that he was planning on making more songs, returning back to vocaloid absoluteley breaks my heart.. rest well, wowaka
yes I cry everytime I hear one of his songs ;(
AriSafari how did they pass away? Their songs will always have a place in my heart 😔💗
【Milk Tea & Donuts】 I might be thinking of someone else, but I think it was suicide.
Looking back on some of his songs, it seems like he was fighting against it for a while. It's sad to think about...
【Milk Tea & Donuts】 it was heart failure, he died last April in his sleep because of heart problems. It was something he couldn’t do anything about. He was only 31
Rest In Peace, Wowaka
@@BeeLy1011 Yeah, that's someone else. Sounds like PowapowaP if anything.
Rest in peace, wowaka. We heard you loud and clear. Thank you for your music.
He will be missed.
Yeah, im sad dude.. Rip wowaka
Just come back to show my gratitude
WAIT WHEN WHAT??
@@necrowfancy died because of heart failure on 5th April (31 years old) but the news just announced today on his website
April 5th 2019 wowka has died at the age of 31 from heart failure. This is not a joke. Rip wowka. You are loved.
No it was April 5th
May he rest in peace. His music carried and saved me through some dark times.
this is actually the first wowaka song i have heard but i like the song a lot.also it's scary to think wowaka was only 2 years older than i am now...
F
@@Cinnamonfrogz what the hell? don't joke about someone dying
this just sounds bittersweet now. rest in peace, my guy.
It does
I actually cried :(
"Can you see me?"
We see you. Thank you for everything, wowaka. Rest in peace.
wowaka died
@@senoritarat966Yes, we know, and this comment is clearly commemorating him?
@@ZhiningAnomalie yeah very sad wowaka died
God, I'm going to miss Wowaka. This song is so raw and its devastating to lose someone as talented as him.
What happened and who is Wowaka?
@@llounafrederique2131 th-cam.com/video/BDps109blBE/w-d-xo.html
It's link about wowaka
@@llounafrederique2131 wowaka is the person who made this song along unhappy refrain, worlds end dancehall and rolling girl and died in april 5th 2019 due to heart failure
@@Azu_reer_uzA thanks for letting me know.
"Words may be excessive, but this dream continues on."
Not many people talk about this, but here’s the meaning of the song.
The song is a bit like Unhappy Refrain: It’s about the recognition and credit that Wowaka didn’t receive.
Some don’t know this, but after the song Unhappy Refrain came out, Wowaka took a long break from making Vocaloid songs, some argue that this was because of his band Hitorie, but you can tell by Wowaka’s last song before the hiatus that he wasn’t satisfied in the Vocaloid community.
Unhappy Refrain was about the credit Wowaka didn’t get, because people credited Miku, not Wowaka. Unknown Mother Goose is about the same thing, a song about why he left.
You can see in the lyrics that it’s about Wowaka not getting credit
“Can you see me?”
Can you see Wowaka and not just Miku?
“A forgotten story”
Wowaka was forgotten
The line “Pick me up again” was a mistake on Wowaka’s part. He admitted that the lyric is supposed to be “Give me love again”, people misunderstood it.
“Give me love again”
Give him credit, attention, love again
It’s sad how Wowaka’s last Vocaloid songs were about an unsatisfaction with Vocaloid music, but I’m sure he’s happy to know that he’s getting the recognition, love and attention even though he’s gone.
edit, here’s a link to a translated statement by wowaka regarding why he left and why he wrote the song. kazarinn.tumblr.com/post/164575872097/translation-of-wowakas-statement-regarding-his/amp
that’s…actually really sad…
damn, thats depressing, looking at this song knowing this makes it more sad
My interpretation is nothing like that but dang…that’s sad
Do you have a source where it says that he meant to say 'give me love again' and not 'pick me up again'? Because as far as I was aware, this song is more about Wowaka returning to Vocaloid and thanking Miku for everything she did for him, hence the name 'Unknown Mother Goose': he confesses that Miku was sort of a mother-figure to him. Despite all the trouble he has had with her and with Vocaloid in general, he still returns to Miku in the end.
@@a.c.e.-6316 I agree with this interpretation. I think people seem to misinterpret or read the lyrics very straight forward when wowaka was always know for making his lyrics very vague. I personally believe this song while yes, showing the same themes of Unhappy Refrain also shows wowaka’s appreciation towards Miku despite all that he experienced. Miku is what got him into fame in the first place, it’s why he views her as a mother figure, because she set the path for him to become a producer
"Hey, if you want to scream about your love, I'll be right here."
This line struck me the most esp. now he went into a peaceful slumber. He was my inspiration. As a writer, I loved how vague his lyrics were.
Rest in peace, wowaka.
bigsame
I am still very new to volcaloid and still stick almost only to miku
So i didn't know who wowaka was so a while ago i asked myself how old he was and how he even died i was suprised of how young he was it sadened me
But i really like this song one of my favourites so far
"one more time"
"continuing to roll on forever"?
Rolling Girl References!!! (//∇//)
OMG
There are a lot more referencesif you listen to all his songs
_mou ikkai..._
This breaks my heart to know that this comment was made 3 years ago, before it even happened.. they had no idea :(
@@chiaisannoying ow...
Hey just a note to all the shocked commenters―wowaka's been making music all this time!! Please check out Hitorie, his band! wowaka composes, sings, and plays guitar. His bandmates make him so happy and it warms my heart so much, please give them a listen!
i would but it is blocked in my country due to Sony! Are there any links to their music anywhere I can listen to?
Do you know how to use a VPN? If you download one and set it to Japan, it works perfectly! Some songs are also on wowaka's Niconico. Alternately you could just... download all their music, which I have links to, but that's morally debatable
Bushra R. Oh, you can also buy their albums from cdjapan if you want to get them through that method. Some songs from WONDER and WONDER seem to have been mirrored on TH-cam and be unblocked, like Nazenaze and Senseless Wonder, so there's that option too, although it's a very limited selection! I think Dailymotion has some mirrors to their music videos as well, I know I saw Talkie Dance and I think I saw Antithesis Junkgirl there. Tumblr PROBABLY has some uploads, or maybe Twitter, where the Hitorie fanbase is most active to my knowledge
Bushra R. m.soundcloud.com/tiramicchan/sets/roomsick-girls-escape
Soundcloud is one not exactly official place. They also have music on Spotify! If you want to support them, you can buy Japanese iTunes gift card codes on a site like Japan Codes so you can buy their music from iTunes Japan.
Wowaka has improved so much. I love Hitorie, sigh. Thanks for spreading the good word.
Sammu oh I didn't know that but still!!!! This is amazing!!!!
Y’know this song definitely hits a certain way. It feels like an extension or sequel to rolling girl and unhappy refrain more so the latter. Like Rolling girl made me feel depressed and frustrated at how useless it all was. Unhappy Refrain made me feel frustrated and jealous at the world for not recognizing who I was and tossing me to the wayside. This song is different as in it gives off a feeling more akin to gratitude and acceptance. Lines like “can you see me?” Or “I wonder if it’s ok to try and entrust those feelings unknown to all upon this voice just one more time?” Really do feel like Wowaka wrote this song with unhappy refrain in mind because it basically answers the feelings of frustration found in that song in a way. This song feels like a love letter to his fans, to Crypton, to Miku herself as if to say despite everything he’s grateful to us and to them for all the support over the years.
I know a couple of people already addicted to this song. The legendary CrusherP included. Wowaka may have passed away, but he passed with a flying colour and went out with a style. His last piece is legendary.
I agree with your theory, as awful as it is, in a way it is also beautiful that he at least got to give his fans this song before he passed away: it's a much more peaceful last song than Unhappy Refrain would have been.
one more time, one more time
Zefurry I will be rolling again today
Mō 1-kai, Mō 1-kai
please get me rolling
I'm a kinda new Vocaloid fan so I haven't truly experienced what it was like to have a bunch of iconic producers be dead in the vocaloid scene for years. I guess I really am lucky that I became a fan just when all the the most iconic and best vocaloid producers all came back to life in the Vocaloid scene.
Same
Me too
Same..
Loop_Zoop same
Loop_Zoop i did experience seeing these iconic producers dead in the vocaloid scene because i was around for a while. Now I have to see yet another iconic producer dead for real. RIP Wowaka.
I’m changing this comment because it seems insensitive given what happened a year later.
Rest In Peace, Wowaka. We still miss you.
I think most well-known and loved vocaloid producers can agree that without their vocaloid songs they wouldn't be where they are now. ryo (supercell) has made countless songs on it just look at ODDS AND ENDS. Hachi wouldn't be where he is without Matryoshka and Panda Hero. He never would've gained the courage if these vocaloids never sang the feelings and thoughts that they did. I think that's the real beauty of vocaloid songs. Not everyone is confident but with just a push you can become something greater. These songs are their way of paying some sort of homage. So, Miku's 10th birthday is definitely worth celebrating. They're not just celebrating it because it's Miku, they're also celebrating their own success knowing that their feelings reached out to MILLIONS of people.
It's very nice that a voicebank allowed these artists to create and make music and allowed them to get to where they are today. Miku's b-day is in a week, it's pretty awesome they made songs to celebrate what Vocaloid/Miku did for them! It's just I'm very excited all of these producers (who more than one of us thought weren't coming back) came back to the software one more time and created something beautiful for all of us to enjoy and celebrate with them.
Trust me I lost myself entirely when I saw all these producers come back! I'm just as excited as you are. c: Who knows? Maybe they'll sprinkle in more delights every now and then.
Anna Stewart soon it will be ryo!
Anna Stewart Tohma next please, I miss him so much...
SEGA should release a PDFT dlc with this song, along with a new module. Please immortalize his last vocaloid song so it can sit along with his others.
Sadly they can't since they can't get the rights to the song since he's dead.
@@yesimcringy_ Yeah it seems a lot of people don't understand that SEGA can't just take a dead mans song to profit off of it, for both legal and moral reasons.
@@calicocat6057 SEGA has shown that they actually care about and respect wowaka, though. Every time there's a concert with a wowaka song, they do a tribute. Or maybe that's just Crypton.
@@amethyst4578 yea sega is just the games, crypton runs some of the concerts
@@twiwatchesvocaloidstuff7159 oh, ok
rest in peace wowaka. thank you for everything.
Rest In Peace, Wowaka. His music will live on forever
since you all dont know when the song was blackout at 2:03
hatsune miku actually is singing "pick me up,pick me up again"
thank god u mentioned it i think of it everyday but still dont know until now :)))
Well he can never pick it up again now, if you wanna be honest about it
Linh Nguyen ...the fandom will continue his legacy; dont worry.
I know this is an old comment but I figured I should say Wowaka himself said she was singing "give me love, give me love again." But everyone misheard it so he just kinda rolled with it.
Really? I thought it was “kick me out, kick me out again” sort of referring to how a lot of people didn’t give him credit for his songs
I recently put a line from Unknown Mother Goose as my senior quote because of how much this song means to me. Wowaka means a lot, it’s still saddening to know he’s really gone 3 years later. I hope his legacy stays, he truly deserves it.
“Hey, if you want to scream about your love, I’ll be right here. Words may be excessive but, this dream continues on.”
i’m crying in the school bathroom as i write this, but rest in peace wowaka. you were amazing and made a big impact on vocaloid music and in people’s hearts and lives with your amazing music. thank you. thank you so much.
Awww don’t cry
Late but 🫂
I’ll hug chu virtually so chu don’t cry :3!
Why are you in the school bathroom
@@moongun5051 to piss?
This a dream? I'm scared this might officially be his last LAST song...but I appreciate it ❤
Medea Agapishvili was that the last song he made before this one?
saltydoqqo yep
As wowaka perhaps, but as hitorie no.
He passed away dude...
www.mikufan.com/vocaloid-producer-wowaka-dies-at-age-31/#sthash.UkMh0jk1.dpbs
Rest in peace Wowaka. I'll never forget how happy I was when I found you and vocaloid two years ago. I'll never forget how happy I was when I found this song- your last vocaloid song, on my recommended. Thank you so much for making these amazing songs. Thank you
Edit: I am actually crying when I listen to this
Don’t cry
I’m crying too..
I'm so happy all the dead producers finally woke up from the dead. Specially wowaka. I was awake one night just playing wowaka songs on my project diva arcade ft, just because I thought it was sad that wowaka wouldn't make any vocaloid songs anymore. I was shocked when I saw the notification to his official channel..
Cop unfortunately this time he's dead for real. May he rest in peace.
Oh this has not aged well at all. But of all the songs to leave behind, I'm glad it was this one.
:(
This did not aged well. (2)
(´;ㅿ;｀)
this song makes me so sad and so happy at the same time
fuck, ill wait another 6 years for wowaka
Yeah uh, about that...
uh
i mean i guess if you die in the next well 3 years??
This aged like milk…
it has been 6 years since this has been commented, god
Actually the synthy stuff on 2:07 actually says "give me love, give me love again". Wowaka had ambiguously admitted it on Twitter.
RIP Wowaka. You and your music will be missed.
WHAT WOWAKA MADE A NEW SONG-?!
BEST DAY OF MY LIFE-

This comment became so sad--
@@rainc4ndy_u i agree
@@rainc4ndy_u With how true this is, and your Kakegurui profile picture, I can totally agree.
rest in peace wowaka ❤️ you’ll be remembered forever
i haven't been in the vocaloid community for very long - in fact, i got into vocaloid after wowaka died. but before i even knew anything about his death, i had heard rolling girl, and it had such a deep impact on me. after listening to that a few times and taking a cruise thru the comments, i realized he had passed, and it hurt to think about, and still does. i know im not felling as much pain as most of the people in the comments, but still - rest in peace, wowaka, and thank you for these iconic songs that have helped me fight.
oh. wowaka. wowaka. my one and only wowaka
a long time ago i talked with my friend about wowaka and dreamed about his comeback. i know he will eventually come back. and he did. words cant express how i feel right now, after all these time, after all those songs.... oh no im sobbing again haha
good job wowaka, your newest song is flawless.
i know he still making music with his band, but what i mean is this is the first time in like forever he actually use the name "wowaka" himself, not hitorie, to make a vocaloid song for us all to enjoy
@@ruuru1788 and unfortunately the last time :( RIP
This doesn't sound good now
All these comments about Wowaka coming back are so sad now
this song feels so nostalgic but amazing because it feels like wowaka has evolved. I hope he makes more music! I would definitely buy his new albums
some sort of Unhappy Refrain 2 would be omg...like I can already tell he grew so much but still has his roots there...so doing something similar like it doesn't even have to be a sequel, but SOMETHING similar would be so cool...
It's so sad that he's gone and there will be no more absolutely banging vocaloid songs from him :( RIP
Ellie we might get an album of his never released stuff like we got for siina mota
@@tylerc4318 that might be a nice commemoration for him
this didnt age well.
My goodness... you go through wowaka's discography, in particular the bitterness in Unhappy Refrain, and then after years away from the scene he releases something like _this..._ it seems like his whole life was a desperate, agonized cry for help. I'm so used to producers like Last Note and EZFG and XenonP and Takamatt and HoP and Easypop, who take so much joy in their work, to see someone literally suffer for his art is jarring.

Sad and creepy- kikuo
we keep rolling every day for him. rest in peace, wowaka. ❤
I put off listening to this... After discovering it through some art on dA I couldn't believe that wowaka came back with a song after such a long time!
Reading what others have said about his background as a producer and his time with Hitorie made it really emotional just to listen to the first few seconds of it.
When I was a kid I know for a fact I was part of that group who wrongly thought that Vocaloid songs just magically "existed", and credited so much to the image of the voice banks that sung them rather than the humans, thinking, feeling humans who wrote them. Personally, it's more than an eye opener reading the experience Wowaka had while using Miku for his music, along with the wave of other producers coming back to make something for Miku's tenth anniversary. It's more somber than I expected, but it brings an awareness of how far the community has changed.
This song definitely has wowaka's touch, but at the same time it sounds nostalgic it's also grown in so many ways. His time with his band, finding his identity, building on his time while using Vocaloid, it just shows. AND the fact that Hitorie recorded it such a good sign of how far he's come ;_; (ugh I mean they're so great, part of the reason I made a NicoNico account was to watch their videos)...
I don't know if I sound really presumptuous saying all that. Sorry if I am; I just got really excited after I finally clicked the link.
um
You sir/mam/what ever you identify as are great for not putting by Hatsune Miku
*uncontrollable sobbing*
His songs sure are autobiographic, which can make them hard to relate to, but they're still wonderful. If there's someone out there translating Hitorie songs, I'll definitely check them out. Thank you for the translation. And please consider the suggestion in your poll that mentions Wrist Cutter sung by GUMI!...
Hasn't wrist cutter already been translated? Did that get taken down?
So that's why! I'm really confused about the meaning of this song, the expressions used are really vague...
i can fully relate to his pain.
"Can you see me?"
No, I can't see you again forever.
R.I.P wowaka
thx for the song :')
"long time no see, wowaka here."
Relistening this song for the 10000000 times
Rip Wowaka, you'll be missed 😭
The dislikes are just the people that read the subtitles upside down and forgot to turn their phone
Crying while listening to this-
Why do people have to die at the worst moments?
I hope Wowaka and fantastic people like him get to be remembered, even if only by few.
As long as at least one person remembers them, they get to live on.
Rest In Peace, Wowaka.. I still can’t believe that you are gone, especially at such a young age. This was very unexpected and scares me for it reminds me that we are never promised tomorrow.
Thank you, Wowaka, for sharing your amazing talents with the world ❤︎ You will be greatly missed!
I THOUGHT THIS WAS A JOKE OR SOMEONE ELSE USING WOWAKAS NAME OR A TYPO OR SOMETHING... IM SO HAPPY
…This really didn’t age well, did it?
@@rose.chan00 ikr 😭
The meaning of the song, the way i interpret it anyway, isnt just about wowaka's disappointment about how he didnt get the recognition he deserved like in Unhappy Refrain.
I feel like this song is much more about wowaka and his relationship with Miku. There were many heart references in the song and even is the logo for both this song and unhappy refrain which prob references the fact he had an acute heart disease and that he prob knew about it for awhile. The story unknown to all is prob talking about his life and how in the end he is only 'humming' his story out there and not actually putting it out there for everyone. Instead choosing to do it in this song.
Him entrusting his love to this voice again is prob about him deciding to use Miku's voice again after all these years.
"I wonder if its okay to try and entrust those feelings unknown to all upon this voice...one more time?"
The title of this song too I feel is a reference to how he said he felt a familial relationship to Miku. I remember reading in his wiki that he said that Miku was kinda like a mother to him.
The Unknown Mother Goose being a reference to how his full story is unknown to all but himself and Miku.
"My heart, creaking, lives in this moment more than anyone else's"
Yes he did. Even now his heart lives in that moment, the moment when he made this song.
Even if it took so long, Im glad people now recognize who he is and is being credited for his works.
Thank you Wowaka for your songs. They meant a lot to a lot of us.
Rest in peace.
wait a min, so he actually did have an acute heart disease?
i mean i did suspect it since its very rare for someone in their 30's to just suddenly succumb to a random heart failure rather then it steeming from a previously known issue in them..... and not to mention, a lot of the lyrics do seem a bit too much of a coicidence...
but does that means we have like, actual confirmation? or at least strong hints? am curious
It’s been two years and I still can’t believe wowaka passed.
What do you Mean 2 year?

I feel like this is Miku talking to Wowaka telling him that if the world rejects her, she’ll still love him and won’t be afraid to keep singing even if the world hates her. Also, R.I.P. Wowaka
Im just binge watching all his songs rn and I've noticed they all mention hearts and stuff, which just makes me cry more because thats incredibly ironic.
RIP wowaka we miss you.
rest in peace....
Weird how songs can communicate to you even without the lyrics itself. It was like the day I first heard rolling girl. His music helped me through a lot. I wish there was a way to turn back time, just so I can tell you how much your music meant to me and to everyone in the vocaloid fandom. Your passing will not go in vain, and you and your message will be immortalized through the beautiful pieces you made. Thank you for everything you've done. Rest well Wowaka, you will forever be missed.
I am so happy Wowaka is back. They are one of my favorite producers and this song is so good. Like, you have no idea how freaking ecstatic I was when I saw one of the Vocaloid pages I follow post it. I actually startled my boyfriend because I started freaking out.
Sarah Cimaglio ...This comment failed to age well. RIP Wowaka...you will be missed...
We better be getting a bomb-ass magical mirai this year with all these tracks coming out.

YESSSSS!! I expect to see Sand Planet in concert!! And all the songs on Re: Start better end up on the next Project DIVA game!
1:47 this part always makes me wanna cry, it’s beautiful.
R.I.P wowaka. He will be missed forever.
I will admit, I only just recently started listening to Hatsune Miku and I've never heard of Wowka. However, it seems that they were a well liked Individual within the fandom and I hope they can rest in peace
He was so much to do many people. If you want to support his legacy, his band Hitorie is still performing!
He did do much for vocaloid. He changed the scene of vocaloid and is very well loved and respected rip wowaka
Man, for me its the 5th of April and listening to this again after so many years makes me tear up. Fly high, Wowaka.
"I dont know what love is or how it feels, but If my songs convey something like that to you, I´ll be happy to do so.".
Is as if Wowaka knew his time was up. I am going to miss you so much Wowaka, you are and will be my favorite classic producer.
Your feelings changed with us. You saw some parts of the world you didn´t want to see before. And so did I. Thank you...
Thank you wowaka for the all the best song you produce..
Now lay down your guitar and rest in peace...you already done your best
May you be rocking at the end of the world even you're not here
I support the shunning v.v Ah, it's meaning is really interesting, seems like this song is about how they felt about their songs over the time up until now where they hummed their story unknown to all once again
Rest in peace, you will always be remembered.
"all alone, when i am engulfed by sound, it is a universal delight."
i mean, that's it. that's exactly what this song means to me. when all hope is lost, when i'm at my lowest, it's so comforting to know that i can wrap myself in blankets, lay in bed with my headphones in, and absolutely lose myself in music for hours at a time. if i didn't do that once in a while, i seriously would not still be here.
i returned to the vocaloid community a few months ago and hearing the news about Wowaka was heartbreaking. thank you for the memories Wowaka rest in peace
It's already been a year since Wowaka passed on, but it still fills me with sadness and mourning. RIP Wowaka, you will always be missed.
This makes me want to cry.. the lyrics, the fact that this was his last song.. the fact that he died, the fact that so many people were afraid this would be his last song....
I HAVE HAD THIS ON REPEAT FOR A DAY STRAIGHT GOD I MISSED WOWAKA. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BLESS YOUR VIDEOS! ❤❤❤❤❤
Edit: ROLLING GIRL REFERENCE I'M GOING TO SOB UGH
Sammu Yee yee! I learned about his band about a month ago but thank you nonetheless!
a rolling girl reference!? where? i don't think i caught it ;w;
bits ! When she says "mou ikkai" and when she says how long will I have to "roll". They're references to rolling girl which was the song that really started wowaka's boom to fame :3
this song is reassuring... I have moments when it all feels like its building up to crash down and they way the song transfers into a more soothing melody towards the middle is just...
its nice.
it's really nice.
Rest in Peace you beautiful soul
Reading the comment section here hurts. Jesus.
I miss you Wowaka, we all do... ❤️❤️😭😭
I hope wowaka's songs DON'T fade away
they were great and made much and influence
These songs will hopefully be remembered
i feel so sad;;;;;;; rest in peace wowoka,,,, you'll be missed a lot :(
We saw you wowaka. We hear you. We miss you.
Rest in peace.
He keeps on amazing me, no matter if he produces music actively or not...truly an amazing producer, and one of my favorites of all time.
He's back!
Thank you Wowaka, for the role you had in defining the word "vocaloid" for us all.
May you rest easy knowing your songs will last in the hearts of your fans for eternity.
WOWAKA IS BACK?? WOWAKA IS BACK
This was his last Vocaloid song before he died
Now he's dead....
RIP to an amazing artist who with his music helped me through many difficult times in my life and i will continue to enjoy them for the rest of it
Thank You Wowaka
I pretty much lost my shit when I saw Wowaka made a new song just for the 10th Anniversary Miku album. I'm so glad he uploaded it! :D I missed him so much... Thank you for subbing!
After this song came out, I impatiently waiting for a translation, and it finally has one! Thank you ForgetfulSub!
YESS!! *WOWAKA* IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PRODUCERS AND HE IS BACK IM SO HAPPY.
READING HIS NAME ON THE TITLE GAVE ME A MINI HEART ATTACK.
This comment didn't age well for many reasons
RIP
"A mini heart attack"
*_oh boi._*
"heart attack"
*_oh_*
twitter.com/wowaka/status/900747444283097089 Reading this makes me really sad and understand more about the song. Sad enough that I have the desire to order Hitorie albums just to support him as who he is. Fuck, I'll go order them right now.
Xsicho Cemetel I don't know how to say this nicely but... you're on a video for an English translation of a song. Nobody can read that link but you.
@corasundae ah yea, sorry about that, so let me apologize by translating a few parts for you guys
basically he's talking about his pasts, in the year he was very enthusiastic in being a vocaloid producer, in his first unhappy refrain album
then about his downfall where he felt that his identity is gone, fans started saying "this is vocaloid" instead of "this is wowaka" and he was really down. he was extremely depressed for half a year or so before creating Hitorie and felt that he would die if he did not join up with his members. Thanking vocaloid for allowing him to meet these guys, he tried his best for the band.
He still listened to vocaloid and wants to continue working on it sometimes but he doesn't have time to do anything since he felt the need to do everything for Hitorie
And after all his successes, he finally felt that he was free from his depressions, like he was someone named wowaka born on 2009 age 8. Coincidentally someone contacted him to work on a song for Miku's 10th anniversary, someone that helped him during the times as a vocaloid producer. Seeing the fire in that person's ambitions for Miku, he instantly said he'll do it with the mindset of "if I'm not doing it now, then when will I be able to do it again."
Took three months of grief, exhaustion, and fun to create Unknown Mother Goose. He felt everything is needed in his life, to create who he is, Miku's songs, Hitorie, his albums. He felt thanks to Miku that allowed him to start his career, Hitorie that sustained his life, and everything.
On the song, he saw himself overlapping Miku and goes with that mindset to create the song. He entrusted his words to her, his past, present, and his future. The instrumental was played by Hitorie, the reason he was able to continue making songs. He even sang the backup voice for Miku in some parts. He felt the need to do it and just did it.
Xsicho Cemetel hearing that made me cry. I'm glad he's okay. Welcome back my dearest friend.
Xsicho Cemetel
Thanks for doing the translation. I just read Wowaka and demo's interview and it has the same message as that tweet.
Thank God we're past the era where people wouldnt credit the producer. (eg: "Melt by Hatsune Miku" or "Daughter of Evil by Kagamine Rin" irks me a lot)
"Am I gonna be continuing to *roll* on forever?"
Rolling girl flashbacks
All I can say is holy shit. Even knowing how amazing wowaka is at composing, this song is leagues above what I expected. Thanks for this translation!
Rest In Peace Wowaka.
WOWAKA AND HACHI AND 23.EXE JUST UPLOADED A NEW SONG TOO AH I CAN'T TAKE THIS
I feel like I'm not getting the full message of this song, does anyone have any deeper interpretations they'd care to share?
Let's not forget Kemu. ^^ 2017 is a good year.
ihavenoideawhatsoever not to mention the translation says will I continue to roll on (rolling girl perhaps?)
ihavenoideawhatsoever ye the roll on could also be like in sand planet, just carrying on
AnimatiNuti I don't think 23.exe was exactly inactive?
ihavenoideawhatsoever I think you're right dang... sad though.
also you should make this a separate comment not just a reply so more people can see!
IM CRYING WOWAKA I LOVE YOUU
dammit I'm crying again.
thanks so much for the song, Wowaka. you will be missed so much and i hope you have a good time up there with Samfree.
And powapowa p
1:12 best part of all
I agree with you
1:46 also
This was my favorite song of Hatsune Miku and R.I.P wowaka
crying so hard to this song right now and the lyrics, thank you wowaka, whenever i struggle i can come back to your songs whenever i need
THE LEGENDARY WOWAKA IS BACK, PEOPLE!!!!!
so.. there's something we need to tell you.......
Let's just say.. Uhm.. Well... He's gone
@@f0x_gl0v3urbroisback5 Yeah, agree with u Pareo.......................
We don't need to remind him\her
RIP Wowaka
1987 - 2019
Ah I teared up once again. You are loved, wowaka
am i going crazy or can you atcually hear wowaka'svoice behind miku's at times?? If it's like that then it's so cool how it plays with the songs meaning
I can hear his voice too. :o
Few months late to reply, but yes its likely his voice.
He did the backing vocals, yes. In the Hitorie version, you can hear Miku doing the backing vocals there also.
F in the chat for our vocaloid king, wowaka.
F
F
F
So I really randomly found out 1) my favorite Miku composer made a new song, 2) i'm four years late and 3) he died already three years ago. I'm... i'm gonna need time, I think.
It’s been two years... rest easy king🖤
