The backing on this song sounds very similar to RISE from Ghost in the Shell, guess Yoko Kanno felt like this style still had some life in it. Thankfully, Megumi Nakajima is just as talented a singer as Origa, if not moreso. Still, I do like the other one better, this one feels just a bit weird
@Gayaprincess You think so? Did you watch anything besides Macross Frontier? She is not even the best voiced in Macross, how could she be better than other anime singers?
There are plenty of better choices, it just depends on the genre you are looking for. Keep in mind that anime exists since to long that nowdays there are songs that are said to be legendary. But then again, it depends on genres. The only thing that comes to mind atm that would be similar to this is Voices, from Macross Plus iirc. However, just looking at Yoko Kanno's discography I'm pretty sure you'll find better stuff. Frontier is awesome, but by no means her best work.
@blazian88 the lyrics is the main theme, i mean, this is a vajra song and Ranka Lee is always singing it. This version (with music) is played only one time.
O.C. probably stands for O' Connor-san. Grace O' Connor (within the story) changed the lyrics and rearranged the backing to what you hear here, militarising and weaponising the song.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this song about waging a crusade-like war against the enemy? It's sad how a love song is turned into a war propaganda. Damn you Grace O'Connor or whatever your name was >:(
@KawaiixXxAmu By the story the original Aimo is thousands of years old, for it to remain in its original version that long would be amazing, its not really surprising that Grace 9her being evil aside0 would change the words slightly to better adapt it to a more modern setting, thus, increasing its appeal to the masses.
Lyrics:Lyrics: Aimo aimo nederu rushe noina miria enderu purodea fotomi Come here, reach your hands to me into the warm sea lu~lei lu~leia The lark flying in the sky is only but a wave lu~lei lu~leia You were a child known by the kindness you gave Aimo aimo nederu rushe noina miria enderu purodea fotomi Come here, reach your hands to me into the warm sea
@simbish31 And it's pretty obvious, duh. That lyrics is for Aimo, not Aimo O.C. If you even bother to search up the lyrics for this song, you'd know there is one hella difference.
The language might be Vajira language vocalized since the original song was sung by Vajira. It might just be the same thing. We aren't really sure since both Zentradi and Vajira languages are made up and have no actual background.
the version grace made up u mean i think? and anyway's... it was her mother that taught her the song... but that doesn't mean her mother made it up either
Thats what I am thinking, because even latin would have been translated, she is 1/4 Zentradi so its totally feasible by the story arc that her "song" is half sung in her native to
Can you fucking die, please? Weeaboo faggot, you're not fucking Japanese and if you want to speak Japanese THEN SPEAK JAPANESE, NOT A FUCKING MIXXED UP SHITBOWL OF LANGUAGES.
I somehow prefer this version than the one without any instrumental backup... while that one is more pure... This one feels like an upcoming battle... This version was the one played during the Ranka Attack Episode.
