AN INTRODUCTION TO JAPANESE POPULAR MUSIC
Keeping up on Japanese popular music is not an easy task when you are not actually in Japan. While I
don't claim to be an expert, I have collected some fairly popular artists' CDs during my several
stays in Japan. Below I offer a sample of the artists I like and/or know to be popular.

SONG LYRICS - JAPANESE
"Nan toka umaku kotaenakucha"
Soshite kono shita ni zassou ga fuete iku
Kodou wo yokogiru kage ga
Mata dareka no kamen wo hagitotte shimau
In the night
I sit down as if I'm dead
* Bakuha shite tobichitta
Kokoro no hahen ga
Sokorajuu de kirakira hikatte iru kedo
Itsu no ma ni atashi wa
Konna ni yowaku natta no darou
Ashi ga sukude shimau koto mo
Ki ni naranai furi wo shite iru no
Atashi no oroka na yamai wa
Dandan hidoku natte iku bakari
In the night
I realize this infection
* repeat
Arayuru chiisana netsu ni
Obiehajimete iru atashi ni
Kachime nado nai noni
Me wo samasanakucha
Bakuha shite tobichitta
Kokoro no hahen ga
Sokorajuu de kirakira hikatte iru kedo
Itsu no ma ni atashi wa
Konna ni yowaku natta no
Bakuha shite tobichitta
Kokoro no hahen ga
Hahen ga hahen ga sokorajuu de
Itsu no ma ni atashi wa
Konna ni yowaku natta no darou
SONG LYRICS - TRANSLATED
"I need to say something good in reply"
and then the weeds on my tongue multiply.
the shadow cutting across my heartbeat
peels away someone's mask again.
In the night
I sit down as if I'm dead.
my heart blows up, and the pieces flying everywhere glitter
but when did I become this weak?
I pretend that I don't notice that my legs have given way.
My foolish sickness just gets worse and worse.
In the night
I realize this infection
my heart blows up, and the pieces flying everywhere glitter
but when did I become this weak?
I'm beginning to be scared of many kinds of tiny fevers
though I don't have a hope of winning
I must awaken from this.
my heart blows up, and the pieces flying everywhere glitter
but at some point I became this weak.
my heart blows up and the pieces, pieces flying everywhere...
when did I become this weak?
Translated By: Brian Stewart & Takako Sakuma
Translator's Notes: Onitsuka Chihiro... she can't just write a love song... and in our opinion that's exactly what this is... her twisted love song. Where love is this infection she has to fight. The clues are all there in the lyrics... the weakening in the knees, the fear of "fever" (heat, passion) the shadow cutting across her heartbeat... she's unable to respond to love the way she wants to. She's amazed at how weak it's made her... feel free to think of your own interpretations... but for us this is a song about love.

SONG LYRICS - TRANSLATED
Because you and I
Are different types of people
Our tastes are different, and our speed of walking
And our way of expressing our feelings
Right now, in our memories
That are fading
We're groping around
Searching for someone else, and a future
Living more strongly that I'd imagined
I'm wanting for a special love
While distressed over a harsh life
Never let go your arms
So I never wander again
Even when we hurt each other
I'm just forever searching for answers
In this time and space that I've lost my way in
You take me your way to the next place
What's reflected in our eyes
What we touch and feel in our hands
That's everything there is to our world
No matter how much we dream
The small pebbles that overflowed in your hands
When we were young
In a time when it sparkled like a jewel
That noone can see
Before I knew it, I was longing for it
Passing by a love that wasn't the same
Yearning for something without shape
A true heart for mystery eyes
Let's go to a town where we can see the ocean
Bringing along with you
That day what only you could see
Though we can't see everything
Of the ever expanding heavens
You take me your way to the next place
Hold on to me
I'd like to be in your love
Never let go your arms
So I never wander again
Even when we hurt each other
I'm just forever searching for answers
In this time and space that I've lost my way in
You take me your way to the next place
In the midst of a secretly repeating delusion
I feel so all in secret life

SONG LYRICS - TRANSLATED
I want to be closer to your ideal
I can't be a good girl Can you keep a secret ?
Hit it off like this
Hit it off like, this oh baby
You still can't read the singals I've been sending from here.
Come on.
I'll get it across, I'll stop, just hide it away
until I can't runaway anymore.
I'll believe, that's no good, cause I still don't wanna believe it.
I want to be closer to your ideal
I can't be a good girl Can you keep a secret ?
I'm not sad when you're here.
Can you keep a secret ? Can you keep a secret ?
I can't be closer to your ideal.
I can't change that quickly, Can you keep a secret
Cause I'll call to you when I'm sad
Can you keep a secret ? Or do I have to keep it secret ?
Hit it off like this
Hit it off like this, oh baby
Even when you're by my side,
I'm looking for a round about way to express it.
If you don't want this puzzle to go unsolved.
Won't you come on
a faint sound
the moving shadow giving chase
a shadow that won't leave us alone.
you'll need to be a bit adventurous and have the courage to hurt.
I want to be closer to your ideal
I can't be a good girl Can you keep a secret ?
I'm not sad when you're here.
Can you keep a secret ? Can you keep a secret ?
I can't be closer to your ideal.
After this there's no going back, Can you keep a secret ?
Show me, that you're not going to go and blab it to everyone.
Can you keep a secret ?
Or do I have to keep it secret ?
I've kept it quiet all this time,
Don't tell anybody , Can you keep a secret ?
I'm not sad, cause you're here.
Can you keep a secret ? Can you keep a secret ?
even if i promise not to hurt you,
who knows really ? Can you keep a secret ?
I'm not sad, cause you're here.
can you keep a secret ?
Or do I have to keep it secret ?
Translated By: Brian Stewart & Takako Sakuma
Translator's Notes: Well Hikki's got a secret in this song. Here's one of the trouble spots that stems from that. The line, "toowashi no hyougen wo sagashiteru" These lines are saying, Hikki is always looking for a way to make her secret known to this boy. She doesn't want to come right out and say it though, she'd rather have him slowly figure it out. The line "Meikyuu iri sasetakunai" is a set expression meaning to solve the mystery. This secret just haunts their whole relationship to each other and until its out there in the open, Hikki can't rest she's a little frustrated at this.

SONG LYRICS - TRANSLATED
Even if I change my feelings to words, will they reach you ?
Since that time so many seasons have passed but,
I am always laughing by your side.
there's one thing that I still can't say.
Secret of My Heart you never doubted.
if there was always a little bit of the future
we could get to the truth.
I can't say, just a little more,
I'm waiting for a chance.
At such a peaceful time, I want to connect more.
I'm scared to show everything, I walk seperated from you by a little,
somehow because your profile seems about to crack, I want to protect you,
I want to be close to you.
Secret of my Heart You understand don't you.
Everyone has times they want to run away but,
that just means nothing can begin.
I can't say surely absolutely
I'm calling for a chance.
Can I tell the truth ? I can't say those words.
to lips that never get to the point, feeling in my heart
I can't hide anymore.
Cause I love you.
I will be with you, wherever you are, can you feel my heart ?
Can't you see you're my dream, I don't wanna lose you,
that precious time we had together.
If you get to thinking to give up, just believe.
I just wanna say, I'm no longer confused.
Can't you see you're my heart, The day is coming when I can easilly destroy
any kind of falseness. but still nothing ever changes.
Secret of my heart Our future is forever.

SONG LYRICS - TRANSLATED
Over the time ever since then
Is there anything we could've trusted each other?
Over the sky deep in the night
There waiting a bright tomorrow for us
We've just heard somebody's voice
And hided us from the world
Over the fence in the park of the night
There's a breeze we felt together
You've tried to say something to me
Holding my hands so tight
That feeling and your touch still fill up my heart
A part deep in my soul
Over the time ever since then
Is there anything we could've trusted each other
I open the window just a little
There coming a cold, cold winter on wind
I feel sad and being alone
Will this feeling of sorrow ever go away?
The mist from my sign
Of grief lingers for a time and disappeared
I wish I could've had a courage
To move a step ahead
But yet I have truly believed in myself
That I could fight the world
With all the words I talked to you
Does any remain in your mind?
Deep in my heart, I feel so lost
It keeps going around
Over the time ever since then
Is there anything we could've trusted each other
Are we now living in the world we imagined at that time?
Not everything is going well as we dreamed and hoped it would be
I wonder if this routine of days will keep going on and on
A crispy night's sky filled with stars
That I am looking up through the window
Over the sky deep in the night
There waiting a bright tomorrow for us

SONG LYRICS - TRANSLATED
It is a sorrowful season with filled tears
I dream that I was held by someone
This feeling of sorrow can't express in words
The Chilly rain falls tonight too
I have only a sign because I can't bear
I still remember that summer in my heart
Please say "I love you" all the time
Please be in my dream
I can't forget itEeart & Soul
And I can't say anything (I don't want to wait at night)
Your name that wrote on sand is wiping out by wave
Where the wave has gone
It passedELove & Roll
Left love as it is
Like the sun at minus 100 degree
Love that moist the body
Summer fruit that make you feel giddy
Still blossom in my heart
Although I am far away from you, in twilight
I have still reminded your hot appearance
I don't want you to see my tears such tonight
I would like you to say that I can meet you again
I can't forget EHeart & Soul
Fruit of tear
Treasure in my life, it is the first time
The memories I want to treasure most of all
The tie of us which nobody can touch
Will tie us up together forever

SONG LYRICS - TRANSLATED
Words: Murakami Tetsuya
Music: Murakami Tetsuya
I can't say that I love you lately because
I've really started to love you.
The tiny glimmer of our future that I see deep in your eyes,
will be inhaled dearly and painfully.
I promised just one thing,
that I wouldn't let you go again.
I'm going on for the sake of just one person
So that you never have to hear a sad song again.
It's a strange feeling, that I can be with you again now,
eventhough you chased a diffrent dream than I.
The March in doubt, suddenly the tears fell
the May we began to forgive,
Even the grudges we had metled in the summer.
I promised just one thing,
that I wouldn't let you go again.
I'm going on for the sake of just one person
So that you never have to hear a sad song again.
So that you won't hear...
I'm a different guy than the one who loved you before.
I love you so quietly and harshly.
I promised just one thing,
that I wouldn't let you go again.
I'm going on for the sake of just one person
So that you never have to hear a sad song again.
So that you won't hear...

SONG LYRICS - JAPANESE
二人の部屋の
扉を閉めて
思い出たちに“さよなら”告げた
あれから半年の時間（とき）が流れて
やっと笑えるのよ
毎日 忙しくしているわ
新しい人生を私なりに歩いてる･･･
＊あなたに逢いたくて 逢いたくて
眠れぬ夜は･･･
あなたのぬくもりを そのぬくもりを思い出し･･･
そっと瞳 閉じてみる
あなたの後
歩きたかった
二人で未来 築きたかった
どんなに愛しても 叶うことない
愛もあるけど
気付きもしないほど あなただけ･･･
見つめてた 愛してた 私のすべてをかけて
＊Ｒｅｐｅａｔ
一緒に 過ごした日々を
忘れないでね
後悔しないでしょう
二人 愛し合ったこと･･･
＊Ｒｅｐｅａｔ
愛してると つぶやいて･･･
