My Japanese still sucks, so there are probably mistakes, but I think these are some of the better attempts I've made at translating andymori lyrics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTmV5Yc0Ks8 彼女 / She Music and Lyrics: Oyamada Souhei What should I do if that girl opens her heart to her friends about her relationship troubles? That girl calling out my name is just the stuff of dreams, isn’t it? Still, every night when I’m about to fall asleep, I end up thinking about her I even think about things like sneaking into her room and hiding in the closet These wild ideas just keep growing Even the way she writes is beautiful And somehow the way she walks is pretty too Lalalalalala…Her voice is wonderful too And there’s absolutely no doubt that she’s a kind-hearted person as well I’ll go to the park with that girl, to the sea, to the mountains, to the river, to the street corners of foreign countries, to the very centre of the desert And ten years later, when it’s become affordable, we’ll travel through space These fantasies just keep growing We’ll be gazing at the blue, blue earth together She'll smile just for me She’s taken flight in my heart These fantasies just keep growing 彼女 / Kanojo Kanojo ga koi no nayami o tomodachi ni uchiakete itara dou shiyou Kanojo ga boku no namae o yonde-kureru nante yume no hanashi sa Soredemo maiban nemuri ni tsuku koro ni kanojo no koto o kangaete-shimau n da Kanojo no heya ni nantoka shinobikonde awatete KUROOZETTO ni kakuretari nanka shite Sonna mousou o fukuramasete iru no sa Kanojo no kakuji wa totemo kirei de Aruki-kata mo nandaka kirei de RARARARARARARARA…koe mo subarashikute kitto kokoro mo yasashii hito ni chigainai Kanojo to kouen ni umi ni yama ni kawa ni shiranai kuni no machikado ni sabaku no domannaka ni yuku Juu-nen-go ni wa o-tegaru ni natta uchuuryokou ni yuku Sonna mousou o fukuramasete iru no sa Aoi aoi chikyuu o futari de nagameru n da Kanojo ga warau Boku no tame ni Kanojo ga tobikonde-kuru Boku no mune ni Sonna mousou o fukuramasete iru no sa Kanji: http://j-lyric.net/artist/a050bf1/l02896a.html 愛してやまない音楽を / The Music I Can't Stop Loving* Music and Lyrics: Oyamada Souhei The music I can’t stop loving Seems to ring out anywhere I go, brother If I start to take it too seriously, I get in fights about it too, And sometimes things get ugly Still, since your eyes always call out to me like a little boy’s In those tough moments too, I can keep going with an honest heart The music I can’t stop loving Seems to ring out anywhere I go, brother Let me hear that wonderful melody Lalalala… While I was heading down the road to the station, carrying my guitar case under my arm, I looked back with a smile on my face Time flows by, and even if my dream is destroyed, I want to sing with unwavering passion The music I can’t stop loving Seems to ring out anywhere I go, brother Let me hear it Play it for me now Lalalala… Notes: *Or maybe "The Music I'll Love Forever"?

Is anyone else going to catch NMFT7? I'm going to the first Toronto show. I'm not super excited about the line-up from the samples I've heard so far, but I wasn't any of the other years I went and I always ended up really enjoying at least one of the bands. Plus it's only $10, so I can drag my friends along without feeling like a jerk. Bands: otori, PENs+, Atlantis Airport, mothercoat, OWARIKARA June 12: Toronto @ Soybomb June 13: Toronto @ Lee's Palace June 15: Montreal @ Divan Orange June 17: Vancouver @ Biltmore Cabaret July 20: Tokyo @ Shindaita FEVER http://www.nextmusicfromtokyo.com/

My Japanese is pretty bad, but hopefully this turned out okay since the lyrics are so simple. The kanji is in the video description. I'm assuming that the symbols are just to show that the sounds he makes during those parts don't mean anything. SafetyDriver ◯△＃＄＆％◉■▲※∵≒◇☆ I am a driver.

cinema staff's bassist 三島想平 and former the cabs's drummer 中村一太, along with guitarist 辻友貴, have formed a new 3-piece band called peelingwards. They'll have their first performance on December 13rd during an event held by THISTIME RECORDS. I don't think anything else is known so far, but I'm excited! Source

so far from my (narrow) perspective i've never managed to find an actually solid korean rock-formation. korea appeared only as the embassedor of high-quality Pop and maybe a few dreamy acoustic-indie things (basing this observation mainly on the last 2-3 years of youtubes eatyourkimchi-indie-playlist), just as japan's pop-landscape mainly seems to focus on akb48-like bubblegum standard-boxset tracks and never quite accomplish the hights of BigBang, SHINee and the likes, whilst at the same time having a quite mentionable quirky indie-rock and hardcore/metal scene (maybe that view is distorted because of CAT5+Zess+Jigsaw.... constant output of such...) this here is actually the first time i saw a korean rockband and found it to be really solid, very arctic monkeys - ish. very catchy and the vocalist has a nice raspy voice. (also, dem guitar-gals boots *thumbsup) probably going to look for that album they also seem to be damn fine live, a couple of days they had a great pro-shot live-concert up on youtube, deleted it unfortunately already... EDIT: it is uploaded again! btw. they are quite the good looking bunch actually...
