Mayonaka no Joke (Midnight Joke) - Takako Mamiya Released: November 25, 1982 by Kitty Records Japan (Singer) Takako Mamiya (Lyrics) Ichiko Takehana, (Composition) Hiroyuki Namba, (Arrangement): Genji Sawai & Osamu Shiomura ・Musicians Vocal: Takako Mamiya Keyboard: Hiroyuki Namba (Sense of Wonder, ex-Tatsuro Yamashita's back band) Guitar: Kazuo Shiina (ex-Hachimitsu Pai, ex-Moon Riders, ex-Tatsuro Yamashita back band) Bass: Yoshihiro Naruse (CASIOPEA III) Drums: Yutaka Uehara (ex-Coconut Bank, ex-Sugar Babe) Percussion: Tatsuji Yokoyama, Tetsuaki Hozoku Brass Section: Hitoshi Okano, Toshio Araki, Osamu Shiomura, Shigeru Kawashima, Genji Sawai, Mitsuru Kanekuni Keyboard: Akira Inoue (ex-Parachute) Guitar: Mitsuo Nagai, Tsunehide Matsuki Others (English translation of the rough meaning of the Japanese lyrics) I can smell the dawn, I'm sure morning would be coming soon. I'm running alone on a midnight drive. It’s only a light joke in a midnight, I've come out on a midnight drive that I started on a whim. I'm not good at getting up early. But I'm fine if I'm up all through night. I'm a woman who can drive through the night, if I feel like it. I guess the same thing can be said when I'm fall in love, It all always starts with a joke in my cases Driving in the middle of the night is freely Cause there are no cars and no one to meet. My car can run freely and fluidly alone.
In the case of movie dramas, at times like this, there might be a guy next to me. He's a guy I've only met a few times and I don't know him well yet. Ah, It’s a stupid joke, going to stop it. I can smell the dawn, I'm sure morning would be coming soon. I'm running alone on a midnight drive. It’s only a light joke in a midnight, I've come out on a midnight drive that I started on a whim. Hopefully I will be able to see the ocean soon. Hopefully I will be able to forget about him.
I'm a woman who jokes too much and sometimes cries because of it. I could say that I was really serious, but it's just only a joke. Fine, I'm going to keep driving. I'm going to keep running , like just way I am. //This song is about a woman who broke up with her boyfriend and drove her car alone in the middle of the night to get rid of the loneliness of being alone and how she felt.（The song is about the loneliness of being alone, and on the other hand, the freedom of being alone, and the complex feelings of being both light and dark at the same time.) If we write out the true meaning of the title, “JOKE at Midnight”, it would be as follows 1_ It's like a Joke,The magic of midnight drives me to go for a drive alone. 2_When midnight comes, Something about midnight makes me drive alone, like a JOKE 3_Driving alone late at night, it's like a midnight JOKE Japanese language is full of abbreviations and tends not to describe everything. Therefore, the reader must assume the real meaning and true intention from the author's background and supplement it. Japanese is such a language. Therefore, there are cases where the meaning does not come through by simply replacing a Japanese word with an English word.Japanese people have considered it rude and unmannerly to directly express their feelings and desires to others. Therefore, as a courtesy to others, it is considered an aesthetic practice in Japanese to intentionally hint at things by omission or metaphor, and not to reveal everything, and this practice has taken root up to the present day. Therefore, in Japanese language education, from childhood, students are repeatedly trained to assume the true meaning behind the other person's phrases based on the surrounding circumstances and attitudes. They call this "reading comprehension,(DOKKAI RYOKU)" and it is a very important Japanese methodology to learn. This is also the origin of the phrase "reading the air (atmosphere, situation) (KUKI o YOMU)" that they often use. This ability to accurately analogize the true intentions of others from little information is said to be a proof of excellence in Japan and is highly valued.
