where does this ocean go?
ANIME: Ghost in the Shell
OST: Stand Alone Complex OST
[audio]


English

all day the city's selling something
always, the busy people spinning 'round
busier
dizzier
'til they go back home to somewhere

and taxies stop to say "hello"
"want a ride? I'll take you there"
"to anywhere, just tell my driver"

the sun is casting shadows
an afternoon is fading
I ask, but no one knows
the answer to the question
my life is like an island
where does this ocean go?

shyly, a wino sips his wine
slowly, cause to him that is all that matters
he sees a cat he knows so well
now sleeping on a bench together

a woman waiting by herself, selling flowers
"please buy some, so i can help my daughter, will you?"

the man with spider eyebrows
is standing on a corner
"who wants to see a show?"
his head looks like a melon
he turns into an alley
then stops to blow his nose
sky is filled with neon
the buildings stand electric
and almost seem to glow
want answers to the question
my life is like an island
where does the ocean go?
I really want to know
my life is like an island
it's time for me now to fly
where does the ocean go?

I just cried, and im a grown ass man. -_______-

@salmonelas123 I've listened to both, and even if it was borrowed from Bjork , this is far superior. Hyperballad seemed to lack that next level, was kind of flat imo.

[Pike840]

@TheBackseatJesus I wouldn't go so far as to call this a ripoff. The melody and structure are different, even though it sounds similar. There are many other differences too, and actually none of the elements are identical (ie. the drums).

[Pike840]

This is music by Yoko Kanno. You make it seem like GITS is the artist, and no where mention the real artist. Not cool.

[IgneoBern]

I'm sorry, this is a really beautiful song and everything, but I cracked up when I heard "His head looks like a melon." XD

@TheBackseatJesus she cant get away with it if its a copy she has to ask the people who originally wrote the music can she get permission to do anything with it or else she wouldn't be able to use it. and she is a genius considering a lot of the music she has done is really good to a lot of people.

[TheBackseatJesus]

@snufkin789 And "geniuses" in music don't directly copy things as a whole. They may borrow certain elements, but as I've said, this goes beyond that. The only thing she may be genius at doing is getting away with it. It fucking angers and sickens me significantly that her fans could stand by this shit.

@TheBackseatJesus

Yoko borroughs alot from different types of music. She is not copying other artists but incorporates styles into her own repertoir, much like a musical chameleon.

Listen to her works for Vision of Escaflowne. She quotes a whole bunch of composers like Gorecki (shadow of doubt), Orff (black escaflowne), Ravel (Revenge), Gregorian Style (Escaflowne Theme). If you know the composers those influences are highly obvious - as is her genius to combine and revive.

[TheBackseatJesus]

This is an extremely blatant ripoff of Hyperballad. I just lost a lot of respect for Yoko Kanno. I don't mind small bits being borrowed as long as their rebuilt upon, but this is such a copy.

[TheBackseatJesus]

Far superior my ass.

omggggg, been looking for this song for the past 2 hours!!! <3
