Yoshida Brothers - Lullaby of Takeda (Takeda no komoriuta).flv

[dumbassfuckingshit]

i am not Japanese bu i love its culture and i am proud to be my own ethnicity, JAVA...

[ramhornjoe]

what makes you so special huh?! i live in America and i am a proud American yet i love Japan and the art of Bushido and im also learning Japanese and German so you are a racist tool to think that all of whom live in the so called anglo-axis parts of the world are stupid and filth. i am learning the art of the katana too and soo ill be as great a samurai as Musashi Miyamoto.

[HamsterCreature]

I wouldn't be proud either if I was part of the anglo-axis, that is the US, UK, Australia and Canada. These nations and their people are filth.

I despise these monolingual subhumans who see the world through their anglocentric viewing glass. The great deterioration of modern world culture as a whole started with the rise of the British Empire and has culminated in the form of the USA.

The interest in another culture by an anglo individual serves only to pollute the genuine element.

[Focusintobeing]

@HamsterCreature sounds like you were bullied at school. Very bitter person.

[coffil]

Hot Hot Hot, Slice so deeaddd

[Ladyrhyannah]

@YogicBellyCat Beautifully said.

[YogicBellyCat]

If you guys are not proud of your countries, you will not be proud of being any others. Love Japanese traditional music, admire their royalty,honor and courage - the spirit of Samurai.

[MrMatthewh99]

@YogicBellyCat spoken words of a true leader.

@Kurotard

I understand you^^ I'm from Germany and not proud of it v.v

[Juken85]

Takeda no komoriuta is a minyo of the region of Kyoto. Takeda is the name of a village.this lullaby expresses especially the feelings of a nursemaid on its own fate(spell), fewer soothing words for the child. We moreover intend her to sing there: " the baby who sleeps is cute, but when he is woken and when he cries, when he is ugly " (in the vocal version) …

Nothing about Takeda Clan...^^

Sorry for all fans ^^

A sweet song...

[Kurotard]

Sometimes, I feel as if I was born in the wrong country and to the wrong nationality. I am far from being proud of being an American. Think about it; the past Americans enslaved those with color in their skin, attacked the Natives, and killed off people who spoke for their freedom. Most of all... Bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki was just evil... I hope one day war ceases to exist. I'm going to move to Nihon one day so I can be with those who are as calm and content as I. What has American become?

[hiroshikazaki17]

@Kurotard *Loves you* <3 Nicely said..

[Makkaru111]

Never know... Takeda Shingen coulda been this beautifulin his prime since he was so long ago when genes were tighter to form better looking people? Dunno. Something went weird later on... Genes seems to get distant...~

[konekochan78]

@accerioni

me too dude

[GougerOfTheGroin]

Takeda looks like a fairly nails beure. id give her konami a good kojima

[darkdrake13]

@GougerOfTheGroin shingen takeda was a man, the female in the picture is fictional.

[chancerNW]

@darkdrake13 Never mind just a man Shingen Takeda was great leader, adinistrator and warrior. The young lady might be fictional but alt least she is weraing the Clan Takedas hallmark red armour, even if the motif isnt correct.

[sergoplotnik]

большое спасибо за приятную и изумительную музыку я прежде не слышал такой ритм завораживающий и навевающий раздумья благодарю

[TheMilkamusic]

dont must to listen a song of this band before I adding this in my playlist - each one of'em is awesome!

[Chaossqire]

I don't think one should wish to be something outside of their own being...Take pride in yourself. I'm Korean, I love Japanese music...but I don't want to be Japanese...I love my life...there's many things to enjoy...

[puccapici]

i love this!! i love everything japanese... my dad has said, that in previous life, i must have been japanese :D

[gerry17sunshine]

@puccapici And my mom said the exact same thing to me... lol My dad told me once I'm done with university I should move to Japan for some years to teach german in the Goethe Institut in Tokyo. I think that's a VERY good idea! :)

[kittykamora]

i love this

[Koveena15]

Why am I not Japanese? I looove this music..and their culture.. I just love Asians in general. <3

[kittykamora]

@Koveena15 i feel the same way i'm not Japanese i'm half Chinese but i love everything that's Japanese lol

[MANOFNAR]

THANK YOU CELESTIAL EMPIRE 

[GuardianDemonX]

shit when i saw the picture i though is some mmorpg game but it acutally a playing cards game, but the picture is pretty sick

[smokescreenninjato]

the more you dissect an emotion like pride or shame the colder and less emotional it becomes.

[irock03glamor]

@smokescreenninjato i agree :)

[mikebevibevi]

You CAN. Be proud of the actions of your ancestors, because you have knowledge of their actions, and it now affects your current actions. And your ancestors did these things knowing that they would affect their future generations. It has long been the goal of any lasting society to postively affect the future of their society. Ancestors are proud because they affect the future and the future is proud to benifit and continue a tradition.

[Enleuk]

Anticipating responses I'd like to stress: You can't separate pride from actions, if you do, pride becomes a false emotion. Pride and shame must be connected to an action or else they are false. You can feel proud or ashamed of something you've done, but if you feel proud or ashamed of something someone else did, then it is a false emotion.

[asdfasdf8904]

pictured is a phoenix clan bushi from legend of 5 rings

[Enleuk]

You have no right to be proud of the actions of your ancestors. It was not you who committed their actions. You do not deserve the honor they deserve just by being related to them. They did what they did without even knowing of your existence. You can't take credit for anything you didn't do or be proud of anyone but yourself. Stop grouping yourself with arbitrary limits and realize all life on Earth is unique.

[MrRyanhancock1234]

@Enleuk shut the fuck up!

[Enleuk]

@MrRyanhancock1234 What is your problem then? Try to use your brain, if you can, to come up with a sensible retort instead of some reptilian reflex screaming more suited for a neanderthal.

[chromzepher]

@Enleuk Although I do agree with you when you say you can not take credit for it you can be proud of them. Pride is "a satisfied sense of attachment toward one's own or another's choices and actions, or toward a whole group of people" The keyword in there being "another's" meaning you can take pride in their accomplishments and in turn be proud of them.

[Enleuk]

@chromzepher Being proud of something you are not responsible for is vainglory.

[trmadcat]

@Enleuk Save for the fact that vainglory is excessive pride over one's own achievements, not over one's lack of achievements. That aside, there are other schools of thought that say it is perfectly fine to take pride in one's ancestors' actions. There's a difference between having pride in your ancestors and taking credit for their actions. And even then, sometimes a person CAN claim a bit of "credit" for ancestors' decisions. This basis for the generally accepted idea of a nation.

[Enleuk]

@trmadcat Something you're not responsible for is not the same as a non-event, instead it's something someone else is responsible for. How do you imagine it is possible for someone to claim a bit of credit for the decision of an ancestor that lived before you were even thought of? If this is the only basis for nationalism, then all we need is a bit of logical thinking to avoid the Holocaust from happening again. Apart from Nietzsche's strange ideas, what schools do you mean?

[trmadcat]

@Enleuk Firstly, vainglory is a term that refers to the accomplishments of only one person or group. This limits the scope of events to that person/group. Therefore, if that person/group was not responsible for an action, they weren't involved in the decision for said action, and it amounts to a non-event for them.

[trmadcat]

@Enleuk Secondly, I said "nation", not "nationalism." There's a difference. And the idea of a nation stretches back thousands of years to the Romans, and further back to the city states of ancient times. World Book defines a nation as "a community of people who share a common language, culture, ethnicity, descent, and/or history." Therefore, it is perfectly reasonable for a member of a nation to take pride in a shared history, with pride meaning "justifiable self-respect."

[trmadcat]

@Enleuk Furthermore, the converse is also justifiable. A member of a nation can feel shame in their shared history. For example, Americans may feel shame about forcing a group of people off of their land and onto reservations or enslaving another group of people. Since you mentioned the Holocaust, Germans can feel shame about their grandparents and great grandparents putting to death more than 6 million people due to that peoples' religion.

[Enleuk]

@trmadcat I don't mind not convincing you, I'm interested in the discussion anyway. A nation is a group so I don't see how vainglory does not apply. I still don't understand how you can justify a sense of pride or shame in something that someone else did. Why should Germans be ashamed of their ancestors actions? And having respect? That word has so many ambiguous meanings. I can accept the idea of a shared history, but we all have a shared history: 3 billion years of evolution of DNA.

[trmadcat]

@Enleuk This is the bottom line, however: I'm not going to convince you of anything through pointless YT philosophy battles any more than you will convince me. So, lets chill and go back to listening to a couple of amazing musicians.

[Enleuk]

@trmadcat One more thought: Nationalism = pride in one's nation. Pride, to me, means thinking it is good. Good = better than something else. That's basic relativism. So, nationalism = we are better than you. If I think my country/ethnicity/family is good, it's because by comparison yours are worse. This is why I don't like nationalism, it can only exist together with a dislike of someone else.

[saintsinna]

@Enleuk You can have pride in something without thinking its better than everything else. My favorite football team is the Dallas Cowboys and I have great pride as a fan of the team. Do I think it is the best team out there, goodness no. Same thing as an american, I feel pride for my nation and most of its history (definitely not all) but I don't think its better here than everywhere here. Some people take nationalism too far, not everyone.

[Enleuk]

@saintsinna No, you can't like Dallas without not liking another team. And why do you feel pride in Dallas? How are you, what you are, what you've done, connected to what they are, who they are, (they change team members, coaches and owners constantly) and their results? I think you need to realize there is only an imagined connection in your own mind, not a real connection in reality. You have no right to be proud of their accomplishment for you don't deserve any of the credit.

[Trigun892]

@Enleuk Sports teams are not that great of an example to use because of the lack of deep-seeded history, although there is some. He can have pride because he identifies himself with them and if he is a true fan goes through the "thick and thin" along with the team. The team needs the fans just as much as the fans need the team, its all one cohesive unit that "feed" off each other's energy.

[Enleuk]

@Trigun892 Sure, but the sports team unit is an illusion. It's ever-changing and its parts are truly interchangable so you can never have a personal pride, only the pride equivalent of an atom in a carrot that accidentally or randomly became part of Gingis Khan and then feel pride for what he accomplished. It could have been anyone doing anything.

No, the past of Germany does not determine the choices of present Germans, they're all individuals capable of novel personal choices .

[Trigun892]

@Enleuk To comment about another point you made, many Germans are in fact ashamed of what their ancestors decided to do because it reflects ALL of Germany and its inhabitants (past, present and future.)

[Varugu]

@Hordebrotherhood Why, thank you. I am Norse by blood and heritage as well. It's good to meet others who honor our acestors and heritage - though so very much is lost to time...

[rayver12ftw]

Wish I was Japanese :/ then i'd be more proud of who I am.

[chibigrunt]

@rayver12ftw Hey, be proud of who you are :D, but I could say the same for myself with my self-esteem -__-u...

[Varugu]

@chibigrunt Well said. Regardless of ancestry be proud of it. Be proud of those that came before you and be proud of where and who you are today. Stand tall - there is only one You.

[chibigrunt]

@Varugu Half Korean half black? Fuck yeah! What's the point of impressing others? There's someone more important that you need to take care of.

[327thepeanut]

@Varugu unless you're white. if you're white and proud of your ancestry, you are apparently a racist.

[eight18]

@327thepeanut wow you guyyyyys can genocide peoples all over the worlds, enslave them, rob their lands, destro their cultures and languages, but you guys cant handle being called racists? fukin pussies yall are a joke

[327thepeanut]

@eight18 white people aren't the only ones who have done that, we're just the most villainized.

[eight18]

@327thepeanut OH BOOHOO POOR RICH WHITEBOYS, I FEEL SO SAD FOR YOU GUYS !!! MY HEART ACHES FOR YOUR PAIN!

[eight18]

@327thepeanut HOPEFULLY THERE SOME WAY THE THIRD WORLD CAN MAKE IT UP TO YOU, GOD BLESS YOU GUYS AND LET HIM GIVE YOU STRENGTH TO ENDURE BEING CALLED VILLIANS

[327thepeanut]

@eight18 dont be a dick, i was just saying it isnt a one-way street.

[Varugu]

@327thepeanut Though I agree with you, don't feed the troll. Considering how he acts, I'd say He's the racist if anyone. :)

[Varugu]

@327thepeanut I agree that if you usually say you're "proud of your ancestry" or "proud of your nation" people (in general) think you're a racist prick. In truth though, racism has nothing to do with being proud of who you are and those who came before you.

Of course, this is mainly because white supremacists hide behind the notions of "pride", "nation" and what they perceive as "race", making the rest of us look bad.

[NCWC2]

@rayver12ftw Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong country.

[Akakitsune1]

@NCWC2  your not alone. I also think that as well

[Arjuna562]

@NCWC2 Do not be confused or discouraged by these arbitrary political boundaries. We are all people of the same earth, we should embrace all the cultures we can. Sure, some cultures may be more destructive than others, but there is something good to be found in each and every culture. There is no "right" and "wrong" in that sense.

[NCWC2]

@Arjuna562 You just made my day.

[kingding32]

@Arjuna562 this is so true many should open their eyes to it that we are all human.

[Shifurei]

@kingding32 aslong as money exists in this world that will never haapen :)

[Guinevere1989]

@NCWC2 me too...I think that very often...

[2YelLowPeaaars]

@NCWC2 I think we are ;)

[AutoDidattaChannel]

@NCWC2 Sometimes I think the same

[soulshrine]

@NCWC2 same ;_;

[booooose]

@NCWC2 i think it all the time

[TeamTowleMotorsports]

love the bagpipes!

[armorfay]

@TeamTowleMotorsports Looks more like a uiellann pipes ;) (love it too)

[TakedaYoshiro]

Whats the picture from?

[AskAScreenwriter]

@TakedaYoshiro It's Shiba Tsukimi from the Legends of the 5 Rings game. I think it's her portrait on the card for the 'Celestial edition.' but I don't know a lot about the card game, I only play the RPG.

[KevinVang1000]

Man, this sounds like Nobuo Uematsu's theme. I'm SERIOUS! DAMN! THEY'RE GOOD.

I could've imagine that Yoshida Brothers do a trio band with Joe Hisaishi and Nobuo Uematsu to do some kind of epic theme battle for a short film. ^_^

[SuperChaokoh]

when it was starting i thought it was final fantasy 7 begining lol

[KevinVang1000]

So did I. This was an epic success!

[akaraven88]

@KevinVang1000 OMG i thought i was the only hmong girl that listen to the Yoshida Brothers, Awesome :)

[chibigrunt]

@akaraven88 I'm a girl and I love Yoshida Brothers... and I'm half Korean even though it's not hmong- yay~

[akaraven88]

@chibigrunt Cool...

[chibigrunt]

@chibigrunt it was 1 in the morning T_T

[gororoth]
