Notes
----------------------------------------
that, is, and halyosy are pseudonyms for 笹原翔太 (Sasahara Shouta), 中村博 (Nakamura Hiroshi), and 森晴義 (Mori Haruyoshi), respectively. The three are members of a Japanese acoustic band named absorb.

"halyosy" comes from "Haruyosi", which is Haruyoshi's name in Kunrei-shiki romaji. Most Japanese people would pronounce "halyosy" identically to his real name.

mixi (http://www.mixi.jp/) is a Japanese social networking site along the lines of MySpace or Facebook.

Video description translation
----------------------------------------
8 years ago, I moved to Tokyo and lived by myself for the first time. It was a new atmosphere, and new food, that I wasn't used to. Back then, I was supported by the kindness shown to me by people who didn't know my name or my face.
That time and that feeling is what I wrote into a song called "Window." I tried combining it with Hige Driver's amazingly beautiful video!!! Please forgive me for such a presumptuous collaboration... The brand-new rap lyrics were written to match the song!!!

[adorathao]

I was leaving my playlist on autoplay, and I thought my computer was shutting down for some stupid reason so I was looking through all my tabs until he started singing and realized that I was listening to a song.

[MsTatakai]

[MrPuppy66]

@HarryMacDowel man i wish this was on i tunes is it?

[kaosblaze]

Oh my god.

This nearly brought me to tears, it was beautiful.

[Merekurea]

@Shadowdoll358 It's not that, Japanese has no phoneme for the American "R" or "L," so it has a sound that is a cross between the two. Try saying "R" while your tongue is in the position for "L."

[Aniru]

Thanks for posting this. The video that I used to go to for the transations got lost. Now I have a new one to love!

[Shadowdoll358]

He said Onrine..... So L is rolled into an R? and a R is rolled into an L? What the heck? the phoenomes.....

[rejectedmuppet77]
