I have always wanted to be a rockstar in my teens ..hahah my family would be my main witness to my confession
So I make an effort to learn how to play the chords but to maintain the consistency and synchronicity of the strumming and singing along is a God given gift. I am still learning and yes it has been awhile ever since I have done this! And so dont judge but just layan me la...

I have too always admire every musicians or performers from any genres because I know it isn't easy to be playing any instruments while performing on stage. #freddymercury #davidbowie #iancurtis #lindaperry here are some singers whom I adore and to me they are extraordinary

You have to to be Fearless and drive with the passion burning in you to lead you to be extraordinary.

Enjoy peeps !

Today's translated cover is an English cover of "Kanade" by Japanese duo Sukima Switch. This is a very well-known song in Japan! The word "kanade" comes from the verb "kanaderu" which means "to play" (an instrument) or "to perform."

The lyrics were translated by the very talented Dima Lancaster, whose channel can be found here:

(English lyrics by Dima Lancaster)

You don't have to say a word, just put your hand in mine
In the wind and station noises, let's stay like this for a while
It hurts my heart 'cause it's time to part, but I try my best to smile
There is sadness in the air, but something tell me we'll be fine

And I really wished for this one season that brought us something new
Not to overflow with sad songs that I'd write to you
But I'm standing here so numb and speechless, just looking in your eyes
Searching for the final words to break the silence
Something other than "goodbye"

To take your hand and show the way, so you are never lost
That is what I thought I lived for, what I cherished most
But the time goes on and now I know it's not like that anymore
It's the days we spent together that still keep us hanging on

And I really wish that in the season that brought us something new
You would bloom, just like these flowers 'cause I'm blooming too
If you ever find another melody that flows just like my voice
It will always keep us close no matter where you are
And no matter where you go

We are running out of time
The whistle blows, train will soon depart
I release your hand and just watch you go
This is the hardest part

I couldn't hold it anymore and I screamed my heart out,
"My voice will be there to protect you, it will never matter how far!"

When you first appeared before my eyes, I remember everything -
How the sky got closer to me and I learned to breathe
All the mornings, tears and singing voices - I got dazzled by their light
Yes, it's true, you gave me something that shined so bright

Memories I can't control are in my voice and I will send them far away
To the city where you are, where I will go someday
If you ever find another melody that flows just like my voice
It will always keep us close no matter what
No matter where you go

今日はアメリカ出身のシンガーソングライターCarole King（キャロル・キング）の「You've Got a Friend」（意味：ここに友達がいるよ）を日本語で歌ってみました♪

1971年にリリースされたこの曲は、同じ時期にJames Taylorがカバーしたことも相まって、当時のビルボードチャートで１位を記録しました。今なお、いろんなアーティスト達にカバーされ続けている有名な一曲です。

日本語カバーをenjoy!

切ない時も　悩みの時も
うまく行かない時も
瞳閉じれば　私はいるよ
闇を照らしてあげるよ

名前を呼べば　どんな遠くても
ためらわず会いにゆくよ
どの季節でも　呼べば今すぐ
あなたの元へ
You’ve got a friend

空が暗く　雲に覆われて
風に吹かれる時
大声出して　私を呼んで
すぐドアをノックするよ

名前を呼べば　どんな遠くても
ためらわず走って　会いにゆくよ
どの季節でも　呼べば今すぐ
あなたの元へ行く

冷たいこの世の中で　友達がいるよ
辛くても　傷ついても
心奪われても　そばにいるよ

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running, running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there, yes I will
You've got a friend

You've got a friend
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend?
Ain't it good to know?
Ain’t it good to know?
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend?
Oh, you've got a friend
Yeah, baby, you've got a friend
Oh yeah, you've got a friend

今日は、Aimerの「蝶々結び」の英語カバーをお届けします♪
この曲はリクエストもいただいており、自分でも訳して歌ってみたいと思っていました。

今回は、蝶々結びの手順をちゃんと英語で再現できるように訳詞しながら音節を当てはめる言葉選びの作業がとても難しかったんですが、何度も修正を重ねてようやく完成しました(^^)/
気に入っていだけると嬉しいです！

撮影地：城山公園（愛媛県松山市）

Here is my most recent English translation, a song called "Chouchou Musubi" (Butterfly Bow) by Aimer, a Japanese singer-songwriter who has recently become popular.

This is by request, and also a song that I wanted to try. It was quite a challenge to translate into English because the lyrics include specific instructions and I had to keep them in tact, so I had to be as literal as possible. It took several tries to get this right, but I am quite proud of the finished product, so I hope you enjoy it!

Incidentally, "chouchou musubi" is technically the word for "bow," but it literally means "butterfly bow," and I used the word "butterfly" throughout the song to refer to the bow. There is a completely different knot called a "butterfly knot" in English :)

Video location: Shiroyama Park in Matsuyama City, Ehima Prefecture, Japan

You first make a circle with the right side
And hold it snug and sound
Then you bring the left side behind the circle you made
And you loop it right around

And then you put it through the pocket that opens up
Between and wait until you see
Until you see it coming out, then you meet it halfway
And pull on one, two, three

On the very first go-round
Well, even if it comes out uneven
Put your strength into it once again, try again

I'll teach you how to tie, to tie a perfect butterfly
Pull it out until the wings are wide
And make the knot extra tight
Keep your arms here where they lay
And keep your memories far away
Always there in the back of your mind for someday

Now see, if you pull on just either side
The knot will surely break
For some things are just so much easier to tear apart
Than they are to create

But even when you untie your bow
Yes, take it slow, unlace it carefully
I know that it's dull, but come on, now and pull
On the count of one, two, three

There are times you pull too hard
As you pray that the knot you've tied won't come loose
The wings come out too wide and you don’t know
Know what to do

I'll teach you how to tie, to tie a perfect butterfly
Pull it out until the wings are wide
And make the knot extra tight
Keep your dreams here by your side
And let your memories soar up high
'Cause the ones that return
When you need them are the best kind

So don't stand in silence as you pull your side
Don't make an uneven butterfly
You'll end up loosening the string that you planned to tie
Or further tightening the knot you wanted to unwind

From all the threads in the world, too many to count
Infinite paths on this big, blue earth spread about
The two of us came from the ends of two separate roads
And found each other on the end of the threads that we chose

It wasn't chance that brought us here, it was all you and me
We took a side each and we pulled on the count of three
We put our strength into it so it wouldn't turn out
Too narrow or wide, wouldn't be too loose or too tight

この蒼くて広い世界に
kono aokute hiroi sekai ni
無数に散らばった中から
musuu ni chirabatta naka kara
別々に二人選んだ糸を
betsu-betsu ni futari eranda ito wo
お互いたぐり寄せ合ったんだ
otagai taguri yose-atta n' da

結ばれたんじゃなく結んだんだ
musubareta n' ja naku musunda n' da
二人で「せーの」で引っ張ったんだ
futari de "sei no" de hippattanda
大きくも　小さくも　なり過ぎないように
ookiku mo chiisaku mo narisuginai you ni
力を込めたんだ
chikara wo kometa n' da
