I remember my friend telling me about this a long long time ago... back then, I didn't have internet so I never got to know this song at all... he's right when he said this was awesome... XD
It's really good song, too bad the translation used in this video has a mistranslation.
手紙を読んだ恋人はもう動かない猫にアルファベット一つ加えて庭に埋めてやった聖なる騎士を埋めてやった (Tegami wo yonda koibito wa mou ugokanai neko no na ni arufabetto hitotsu kuwaete niwa ni umete yatta seinaru kishi wo umete yatta) is translated in the video as "The lover who read the letter buried the motionless cat in the garden... under one letter", but the actual meaning is
@JapaneseSongsEnglish the actual meaning is roughly "The lover who read the letter buried the motionless cat in the garden... adding one letter to its name"
she added one letter to the cat's name = Holy (K)night
GOD DAMMIT WHY DOES JAPAN GET LYRICS LIKE THIS WHILE I HAVE TO DEAL WITH SHITTY RAP SONGS 24/7 SINGING ABOUT A GIRLS ASS AND HOW GANGSTAH THE SINGER IS.
@Pottsdie You could find a lot of good rappers(Immortal technique, for one)if you're willing to look. And to be fair, not all Japanese songs are as beautiful as this. Unfortunately.
It does not matter if you were are poor or hated. As long as you have found love in your life, it is a life very much worth living for... or dying for
i don't know how many times i've listened to this song and i'm still crying from the sheer emotion the singer has in his voice, different language or not this song really hits home.
"look,he is the servant of the devil,i dont care what they call me,i have a name they can't take away,holy night" :/ *crying* so sad!! wish this was a story that had episodes!
Yeah the translator got the ending completely wrong, it actually says that she added a letter to his name, not that she buried him under a letter. That's what the title of the song is about.
""Run! Run! Bring this to her. the girl who awaits the homecoming . . .or since ur such an amazing cat, jsut find a way to mail this, surely it would be much easier than tracking down my hometown and making your way through horrible perils. but really, it's ur choice".
like my last post... THE BEST VID EVER!!! ; _ ; IT SO SAD... IT MAKES ME FEEEL STRONG ABOUT MY NAME!!!!! this changed my life literaly!! :3 thx who ever posted this!!! XD
@WinterMoonMiyavi I found this song about a year ago. It still chills me also...I have not showed it to a single person who didn't absolutely love it!!!
This is such a sad, sweet song. For some reason, it is difficult for me to get emotional over media, but I can get upset on other things...my sister on the other hand, started sobbing and I had to hold her after the video was over. I'm assuming this is the official music video. but if not, it is a very impressive flash.
This song in itself has a quick, bloodrushing sound but if you just listen to it, you can hear the emotion from the words and the harmony.
Also in the chorus I recognized "hasshite" (first time was "hasshita") both conjugated forms of "hasshiru". So later when I hear this song I feel that one verb emphasizes the moment. But again, no length of words can amount to the power of this song of versatility, love, and will. <3
