I've never heard of this band before though I've lived here in Japan for 40 years. I never imagined there's a band that plays a song like this in Japan. I've been really really moved by this song. Did they break up 5 years ago ??? No way ! I think I lost something important to my music life.
Not to say that you have to understand something to appreciate it. I guess it's that I would really like to tell somebody. When you really like a work of art, you dont need an explination but when you want to share it, it helps to understand it.
I found this while searching for something from spring awakening and it's simply amazing. If anyone knows where I can find an English translation I know I could better appreciate this video and the music tied to it.
It's a bit hard to explain, but Emo is like music that talks about death and depression and "woe is me" kind of things. It can also be a type of fashion statement with a lot of black and red. I guess it's sort of like "moody". I'm sorry, I don't explain things well.
@Cranberry76 but just so you understand it correctly not every sad song is emo. not every person wearing black and red is emo. it's like not every black person is born in africa, to use a simple comparision.
Emo is a kind of style, music, fashion that has typcal features, but the difficult thing is "emo" combines very much, it can be rock, pop, rap, metal music, but it doesnt work the other way round. emo music can be rock, but rock isn't emo ;)
Why did the term ''emo'' even come into your head in the first place? Because its a very emotional and serious topic? Because its saddening? Because shes singing from her heart? Thats not emo. Emo is a bunch of faggot teenagers going around all dressed in the same way, talking in the same manner and listening to same music that caters for their very own disillusioned outlook on life.
'cause some retards already commented on this saying she was emo, not 'cause I think she is, dude. It was a general response to the dumb asses who think that if you sing with a negative emotion that it makes you emo :\
Oh i wouldn't be sure about that haha. Fra-foa are more like an underground/indie band. You should check out the Mahiru no Himitsu live... i don't think emo sounds like that lol. ^o^
pfft. that's one dumb-assed assumption there. just cause' a song is melancholy doesn't always mean it's 'emo'. for one, they're not punk/screamo. two, their lyrics aren't anything like, "my life is just a black abyss, you know... so dark..and it's suffocating. grabbing ahold on me and tightening its grip"
well, on their website and in articles they've described their music as "emotional hardcore", but honestly who cares if they're emo or not.. the bottom line is that they ROCK!!!

Well, it wasn't an assumption, it was a question. See the "?" at the end of the sentence, there?

Besides, how is writing/singing a song about your older brother who drowned considered emo?
PrincessofLembirk 4 years ago
emo can be embodied in a look or aesthetic as well as lyrical structure and writing, etc. She looks pretty emo to me.
fozzibab 4 years ago
They're not an emo band. They're supposed to be an indie/rock band.
PrincessofLembirk 4 years ago
And there's another dumbass assumption about the whole Emo genre. I'm guessing you think bands like My Chemical Romance are emo, right?
UnholyWarcry 4 years ago 2
My Chemical Romance is emo-ish.
jp1989at 3 years ago
Absolutely wrong. My Chemical Romance are really bad Pop Punk/Pop Rock. Bands like Orchid, Saetia, Circle Takes the Square, etc. are emo.
