"Mysterious" lyrics in Ayu songs
 

Collecting the forgivenesses and starting overs of the Ayu discography here.

SCAR from Duty:
(message in beginning, not really lyrics.)
Le numéro que vous avez demandé n'est plus en service actuellement. Nous regrettons de ne pouvoir donner suite à votre appel.
The number you have reached is not in service. This is a recording.

starting over from Duty:
"People start searching for what they can't see
People learning from what they have done
That there are only things existing in nowhere
But in each creation
They can't find the future
They can't find the future
What am I still searching? *"searching" is reverbed*
What am I searching in each creation? *reverbed 3 times*
La la la. . .
What am I still searching? *the word "searching" is reverbed about 5 times*
That's why we create a world with a future that's in our hand(s)."

forgiveness from Memorial address:
War and destruction.
Crime and desire.
But I wanted only keep my love.
Every cardinal sins.
Every immoral deeds.
But I was holding on for my love.

+ from RAINBOW:
Our new age has come
Proudful friends yeah!

Ladies Night from (miss)understood:
Leave him, lose him, cut, replace him [danger]
Hate him, then erase him
You don't ever [need to] think you can't leave him [need to] ......

Pride from (miss)understood:
'Listen' and 'I want my pride'

Voyage from RAINBOW:
We're on a journey for love. Living our lives to be happy. (sung by backup singers)

kanariya from LOVEppears:
"If only I could see, then I..."
"You should just open your eyes"
"Finding my heart, make me cry again"
"Nobody knows, the reason why"
"Nobody cares, inside me"

everywhere nowhere from RAINBOW:
the freedom we have
the choices we make
the sacrifices we pay
make life so complicated

Close to you from RAINBOW:
By your side, all the time.
Everyday, watching you, every night.

GUILTY from GUILTY (unsure):
GUILTY or not GUILTY
If not, I'll go

until that Day... from Secret:
I can not stop until that Day, that Day
I can not stop until that Day, that Day

Beautiful Fighters from Secret:
(Contrary to popular belief, what plays in the beginning and other parts of the song is not really a phrase, I believe, just "Beautiful Fighters" mixed up in post production, it seems. It is not IT'S MY BEAUTIFUL FIGHT or anything like that.)

tasking from (miss)understood:
You got the reason
We got the reason [or is it rhythm?]

If there are any others, please post them in this thread.

I did find this thread made ages ago:

But... I found it after making this, haha.

SCAR - in the very beginning

tasking - right before the climax
We got the reason/rhythm. We got the music/got to lose it/move it (still really etchy on that)

RAINBOW - last part sung
No rain, can(n't) get the/no rainbow.

wow i was just about to search for forgiveness english lyrics, lol. thanks for this. =]

In Pride isn't it "I want my pride" ?

But none of those are official right? Just rumored lyrics. I sooo don't hear "Every cardinal sins.
Every immoral things." being forgiveness' lyrics.

You listened to the English part, right?

The English part up there is basically what the backup singers are singing... which Ayu sings later in the song as well.

It doesn't sound like it at all, but Ayu is singing it.

I just listened to it and she really makes "cardinal sins" sound like "promises" somehow... haha.

So did Ayu mention these lyrics in a TA post or something? Because up until now, I thought these along with Ladies night, was pure speculation.

Yeah exactly...

??

I don't know. Megchan has them up as official. -shrug-

They sure sound like they're in the song anyway.

http://super.fureai.or.jp/~joichi/ay...cgi?tree=r2986

Various Japanese question/answer sites also have them as the lyrics.

(The first crime/destruction part ... I dunno about that since it was backup only. Might've been from a TV live or something.)

I have no idea where it came from, but I'm fairly certain they are the lyrics.

Just trust that her English was terrible in 2002/2003 and has since then improved by leaps and bounds. She made "complicated" in everywhere nowhere sound like "so completely me" or something.

i love the beginning of scar. one of the few uses for my french

I remember her saying that she thought she would do Rule in English as it was to be the theme song for a world wide movie... I wish she would've done it. It'd be cool to see how better her English has gotten and the creative lyrics she would've used.

someone needs to ask ayu to post the real lyrics in TA

I doubt anyone outside of AHS really GAF about forgiveness :laugh

just to make it clear, i believe those are the official lyrics from the Sweetbox version (which is the original one) :yes , so it's most likely ayu trying to say what she says but sorta failing. xD

^maybe is not ayu at all

OK NOT GONNA START TALKING ABOUT THAT HERE nope nope
must contain myself
true true

:roflmao
So true

Hope this thread doesn't convert into another 1000-page Beautiful Fighters lyrics discussion

I actually don't think Ayu says any of the English in Ladies Night. Most of it is the same person saying it as the Sweetbox version, is it not?

This is cool! I've always wondered what was going on in those songs :yes Thanks for sharing! :heart

yeah, you should fix Pride. the lyrics are definitely "i want my pride."

otherwise, this is pretty awesome. :yes

also, where are the english lyrics in +? i remember reading about them but i've never heard them.

and one more thing, i've been wondering about those voyage lyrics for a LONG time.

During the chorus.

La la la la laaa
sakendekure
la la la lala
our new age has come... yadda yadda.

I hear from numerous people that ayu says "Yes" in Audience. I have yet to hear that. can anyone clarify?

wow, i have listened to that song so many times and NEVER noticed english there!

Whoops, I made an error.

There's no lalala between the phrases, haha.

right before the chorus:

"kimira no dareka ga
YES! datte sakenda toki ni wa
boku wa narande
YES! datte sakebu darou"

Oh! it's good to finally get wtheck she's saying in forgiveness right there! Thanks for this!

for forgiveness and Ladies Night, no one can really confirm..

i am really interested to know where on earth english was sung in until that Day...

LOL!

That can't seriously be completely what she's saying in forgivenes.......... I really do want to ask her to post the lyrics, hah. That's bothered me so badly since the day it was released! I love that song, and I love to sing it, but I always have to make up random **** at the end, lol. :(

you know when I first heard Real Me I could hardly understand a bit of the english she was saying "A woman could be having fun. A woman could be like a nun" always sounded like "A woman could be hibiafus. A woman could be Like a la!" which made nooooooooo sense what so ever!

With Ladies Night, the original Sweetbox version can confirm that.

As for the forgiveness lyrics, they might be in a TV performance of some sort.

http://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp...ail/q128011642

Someone posted them here too [question is from 2006]~

I think these are real, and Ayu's pronunciation was just CRAZY in 2003, haha.

i awlays thought thats little saying for Ladies Night was

"[DANGER] Lose Him, Got to Paste him [DANDER]
even so you dont ever need think can bet him"

lolz i guess i was way of

wow.. i never knew there's french in SCAR~

i know this is a really bad question to ask since i'm in the 11th grade, but what does cardinal mean?

i googled it and got a whole bunch of definitions. @_@

^ Well, in the case of something like 'cardinal sins', "cardinal" is like the basic quality of something, like the principle. It's like the standard..... Dunno if I explained that well, but yeah. ^^' And it's not bad that you were unsure. It's not like that's a common word. I've only ever heard it when people were trying to sound fancy. XD

"cardinal sins" seems also to be another word to describe the "seven deadly sins".

Dude, those could be totally real but you can't use Chiebukuro to prove anything; anyone could've posted that.

Just because someone random from an answer site or even multiple people says it is doesn't make it true of course :laugh

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...5224848AAI25WC

^lmao wth xD

@Crystal: i get it now. :yes thanks!

Yes, I'm aware of that.

But do you have any evidence against what was posted? Do you have handwritten lyrics from forgiveness that clearly state the lyrics? I'm just presenting what I've found and it's your choice whether or not to believe it and you clearly don't.

Someone should just tweet Ayu asking her what the lyrics are and we can get this over with.

http://bbs2.aimix-z.com/mtpt.cgi?roo...e=view&no=1780

I seriously wonder how the Internet got a hold of these English lyrics. They had to have been published SOMEWHERE for so many people to start using them.

As someone who's listened to GUILTY a lot, I always hear it as

"GUILTY...or not GUILTY
You're not alone"

This seems to make more sense as well. I don't have any proof obviously though; pretty much like in forgiveness and a handful of others. Just thought I'd throw it out there though.

there are new mystery lyrics that appeared, in Sexy little things,
just before the 2nd chorus:

it's written that way in the booklet too. Does it mean that it's somthing vulgar or obscene ? o_O

Of course I don't have hand written lyrics, no need to get snappy buddy :laugh. I'm not saying it is or isn't- all I'm saying is that there's no way to know fo sho, y'know? It's just that random people from Japan I don't see as a reliable source much less as so-called evidence :P Who knows- they might be the lyrics. But there's no way of knowing for sure. That's all.

When there is no reliable source and there's barely any information imo, you just have to rely on what's out there, especially if it's been out there for a while and copy-pasted a jillion times, haha.

JUST TWEET AND ASK AYU ALREADY OHOHOHO

XXX isn't representative of pornographic/vulgar content like it is in the West (the letter H is used frequently). × (called batsu) is more of a "blank" and not pronounced, like in A song for ××.

Has she started tweeting already? I saw that the account was opened but//

I doubt she'll answer random questions from people. But it'd be awesome.

^yeah it's open!! we were all asking questions earlier this afternoon. she answered my question, so i don't see how she wouldn't answer anyone else's. :yes

Until there's no official lyrics, I don't think we can clearly rely on what has been posted over the years by unnoficial sources as if they're necessarily the truth. The forgiveness lyrics make sense, but I still can't take them officialy until I ever have some sort of official proof of that lol. Some people can be really adamant that they truly HEAR "It's my beautiful fight" in Beautiful fighters when the sounds ayu makes clearly aren't even any close to how that sounds. :laugh

what??? really? what did you ask? and what did she reply???

I understand that, but we know the lyrics are in English and we know they're not totally off... so they're at least somewhat reliable imo.

In GUILTY I've always heard:

"Guilty or not guilty
If not I'll help you"

^to be honest, i was never able to hear the second part. i didn't even know it was there till it was mentioned some time ago. gonna go listen again.

i see, but she clearly say something... i hear it.

That XXX seems like it's just there like how the "heart" is in Lady Dynamite's lyrics.

Seems like whatever's said during that XXX is basically an echo of what was said before imo.

That's so true. We wouldnt even know what are the lyrics that ayu is singing cos of her bad pronunciation LOL.

Someone shld have just asked this qns in the A WORLD IS ONE book that we gave ayu. Since ayu said that she will read it everyday, someday she will see the questions and answer them. -_-

In Pride, I thought the lyric was "All of my pride", but maybe not? >.> I always hear weird things lol

I originally had it as "All of my pride" but apparently it is "I want my pride"...?

^yeah i actually just recently heard it as "I want my pride", i'm a bit embarrassed to admit this but i always heard it as "lalalalaaaa" o.o

omg Heavenly your set is fking gorgeous *___*

haha thanks :D

in Guilty I definitely hear "Guilty, or not guilty. If not, I'll help."

I always here this also.

About forgiveness: I always hear "immoral deeds" instead "things".

Just my two cents...

What they say in Real Me after "Woman never hides away...." (it sounds like Yu-reru-nana jeje)

^"In order to survive."

xD

jeje Thanks....

I think whatever forgiveness lyrics are she clearly says "...for my love." toward the end.

Good topic.

I thought it was "every immoral things" not "every immoral deeds".

I have always and will always hear "I'd like you to watch me until that day, that day" and honestly, since it's an almost direct translation of the last lyric of the song, I think it's the most likely.

Just throwin' it out there as another option.

Until that Day... has mysterious lyrics too? Which part? XD

Latest mysterious lyrics, Sexy little things, the one Ayu marked as xxx in the booklet. It got me sooo curious, but I can't hear what she said at all, but it was definitely something, right? Not just random sounds. Heck, I'm not sure if it was even Ayu's voice.

^ it sounds like "kotoba wa ja nai te" or something xD

It's a vocoder voice in the background of some of the instrumental parts of the song.

AhA ! i'm not the only one who heared it finally ! xDD

Me too xD! I never had the instrumental so it was hard to hear! Everytime I listened to the song I thought the back-up singers were singing in English, but then I just figured I was trippin :yes

I always heard "take your best shot, till that day, that day."

Isn't it just "until that day, until that day, that day"? xD



This is what I get from forgiveness:
War and destruction.
Time and desire.
But I wanted only keep my love.
Every promise is...
Every moment is...
But I was holding on for my love.

in until that day... i think its pretty obviously "i cannot stop until that day" in the background.

i was actually listening to it at work today thru less than great speakers and was surprised how clear the words were.

about sexy little things though...anyone know what the xxx part actually says?

xxx part? 0.o

Something with kotoba janai in it. I think it might be a repetition of the lyrics before it, kind of with vocoder?

(There's an xxx in the lyrics at that point, sort of like how there's a heart in Lady Dynamite's lyrics)

oh, its in the lyrics booklet that way. you can hear what i mean at around 2 minutes into the song, its the background voice after the lyrics line.

EDIT: oh truehappiness you beat me to it!!! i didn't know about the heart though!

I was shocked too because I had never heard her say it before, but then I was looking through the lyric booklet with A COMPLETE and in the AUDIENCE lyrics, it said "YES!" so I'm guessing it's official :laugh

What they say in Ladies Night (something like "place them....evil so...")

listening through the remix of ladies night. I can't seem to figure out what the people are saying in the one part. Ladies Night x AFRA & INCREDIBLE BEATBOX BAND

that's what I make out of it, anyone else hear anything differently?

^ I hear the same thing too.

Beautiful Fighters in the first 6 seconds she says something...I can't figure out what is is!

It's basically "Beautiful Fighters" scrambled in post production.

~
 

I'm surprised nobody has brought up the voice in LOVE~Refrain~...
I thought that the voice said this:

Soon I will get all this on

Have no idea why I think that though!

^ it does sound like that, doesn't it! I heard 'solo' at the very end of the love refrain mystery voice... but who knows? Some of these mystery phrases are like trying to decipher EVP's. They're ghostly! -flail-

What a cool thread, though! It's amazing how the Beautiful Fighters thing just keeps going... I really believe that, like truehappiness said, it's 'beautiful fighters' played backwards in quick succession & fuzzed up. ;)

I am pretty sure in the forgiveness lyrics,

"War and distraction" is incorrect,
I am almost 100% positive it is:
"War and destruction," which also flows better with the meaning too, if you look at it closely. :) hope that helps some.

Me and my friends decided it said,

"This my apple pie"

I hear it as...
I'm sure that girl just wanna have fun
I'm sure that girl just wanna have fun
I'm sure that girl just wanna have fun
The stuff that they go through, they really need to have some fun.

I could be wrong, of course, but that is what I hear.

I believe that it's actually a real phrase, in conjuction with the PV. "It's 5 Beautiful Fighters" At least that's what it sounds like to me.

There's that hidden line in Sexy little things too, that I just can't make out... ><

i hear something like 'danger, wisdom... care him, please him, hate him and even so you don't ever think you can XXX him / face them'

not sure... anybody hears better?

I hear 「言葉じゃないいら」 kotoba ja nai ira, or something alike, for me it make sence coz there are those × representing that mising word(s) and even in the PV Ayu hides her mouth

haha yes thats what i hear too its just basically "its beautiful fighter" :yes


nwey,anyone realize that at the beginning of Scar theres this girl like an operator i think,saying something like "the number you have dial is not in service..." and then i hear also in french the same line,wonder why?

at first i thought something wrong when i got this song,but then i can hear it when she sang it at PCDL 0809,any meaning of it?

ladies night lyrics scary O_O

In girlish what they are discussing in the beginning? ^^

and what does it mean? :o

In forgiveness, I hear "Every promises, everyone believes" the more I play it back... I could totally be wrong though. Who knows. This is a great thread though, I was starting to wonder about some of the lines.

thats what i want to know too...

what does the mystery line in sexy little things actually MEAN?

I hear...
(danger) leave him/lose him/cut, replace him/then you hate him/but even so/you don't ever need to/think you can beat him
I'm pretty sure the lyrics are exactly the same as Sweetbox's "Ladies Night". I'll have to look those lyrics up...I'm not too sure if that's what is being said though.

I have this, I take it from the forum time ago:

Le numéro que vous avez demandé n'est plus en service actuellement.

The number you have reached is not in service.
This is a recording.

AYU SAYS:
all I want to believe in my love...
every promise is...
every moment is one I want for me -- all for my love

--------------------------

her back up singers say: (you can hear it perfectly on the instrumental)
war and destruction, crime and desire
all I want to believe in my love...
everytime we seek, every moment is what I was holding out for my love

^No one knows these lyrics for sure since they were never printed anywhere.

IMO that is the correct one. It sounds the most like something Ayu would write and also exactly like what they are singing.
But I always hear "but" instead of "all"... which would make more sense. I mean, Ayu (usually) has correct English grammar in her lyrics, so the "all" caught me a bit off guard.

(oh dear i always write too much... well i have a love for accents and languages so this over analyzing is kinda something i tend to do! xD)

^hmm but i think it wouldn't make sense for ayu to be singing lyrics that are only a little different from the chorus behind her. especially if phonetically they still sound similar. production wise it doesn't make sense. and i think the cardinal sins immoral things lyrics make more sense with the concept of forgiveness. war and destruction, sins... people don't do things solely for those reasons. really they meant to do what they thought was good (all i wanted only is my love). haha or maybe i'm just a little influenced from the CASSHERN movie xD

i do have some doubts though. first with GUILTY...
GUILTY or NOT GUILTY is right, but i think the second part sounds more like "i do NOT FOLLOW" which is similar to her saying "let me tell a sweet lie" and "let me make an excuse"... it's as if someone is confronting her asking if she is or isn't guilty and she is just playing innocent and saying she doesn't even know what they're talking about.

and especially with Ladies Night!
like people have said those are the official lyrics from SWEETBOX's version, but i really don't hear that in ayu's song. especially since ayu rewrote her lyrics for the songs she took from them. i'm thinking ayu got the song and because "danger, need to" probably came with the instrumental, she had to write something that had breaks for danger and need to, sounded similar, all while still making sense with her new lyrics. after trying to isolate the vocals more in my music program, i think it's more like...
so when you think of the lyrics, Jade's version is more about teaching your boyfriend a lesson while ayu's is more about the support girlfriends can give to their friends in waning relationships. that's why i think she's not telling her friend to "leave him, lose him, cut, replace him" but maybe she's informing other women to do what she's doing for her friend. if they think they can't leave their boyfriends then that's the warning that you need to tell them otherwise! plus do people really hear erase him? in ayu's version the even SO is SO clear!

oh and that last part of "me too" is also what i think i hear in Sweetbox's version. the second time where it could be need to again, i don't really hear the "d" to "t" transition when singing neeD To... similar to the breaks in japanese syllables work (like in "Kore tte" and "Chotto"). also cuz the first it definitely sounds like an "n" but you can hear the prep for "m" on the second one. it's the short closing of the mouth that you hear while getting ready for an "mmm" sound as opposed to leaving your lips open for a "nn" sound.

lastly, people have said that it's possibly she just took Jade's vocals during that part since it is definitely Jade speaking that part in the SWEETBOX version, but you can really hear the difference between the versions. Jade recorded each the words seperately "leave him" "lose him" "cut" "replace him" while ayu's version you can hear the breathing after each phrase. also, ayu's version you can hear whoever is saying that part has an accent (possibly Japanese?) while Jade definitely has an American accent =P

so yeah those really are the only ones two i felt that are different than what's posted :) again sorry for making this so long... congratulations if you read it all ^^;;
