The heading at the beginning of the video says "hikiwomori". It should say "ヒキコモリ".

Thank you! I've corrected it.

What's the name of the song?

[patrickjered]

Hi,

The song is also called Hikikomori!

[yaoicrazyboys]

but what is the name of the singer??

is it Patrick Jered??

[patrickjered]

Hi there...

The English parts are sung my me (Patrick Jered). The Japanese voice was done by a reclusive young kid in Tokyo who only wants to be known as Yosshi. He recited the text into his computer and e-mailed the file to me. I'm hoping to collaborate with him again as I think he has a wonderful otherworldly voice.

terrific!!! Good tunes,and the topic now is popular all over the world,in chinese we call it "zhai":) seeing this video feel very true~

[kaiplak]

Haha now there are expectations and societal requirements in order to be a Hikikomori cause of how cool they seem to everyone. A veteran hiko could now be failure at being hiko cause he might fail a particular hikomori norm lol.

@KaioriBreathe oh, sorry, just realized you are the one who made the track :p

[KaioriBreathe]

[herbalvegas]

Don't wanna face your complications i just crave simplcity I'm condemned to be alone

I found a way to discontinue no more noise inside my mind I'm condemned to be alone

Too many words to find a reason too many words to speak at all I'm condemned to be alone

Don't wanna feel your disappointment I'm gonna go outside again, I just need to be alone

[sev1re]

Gonna post the lyrics in two parts:

Don't understand your expectations I don't want your sympathy I'm condemned to be alone

I created my horizons, i need to leave so much behind, I'm condemned to be alone

I need the time to face my demons, I know you'll never understand that I'm condemned to be alone

Don't wanna feel your disappointment, I'm gonna go outside today i just need to be alone

[yaoicrazyboys]

Seriosly I loved this song and the video is great too, I hope to hear from you again.

And tell Yosshi if he ever needs to talk to someone he can come and talk to me. I'll be happy to make new friends.

Cheers mate.
