Memorial address part II, I'm pretty sure this song isn't about any lover.
|
^ that's what i thought. It really sounds very much like MA.
|
Thank you for the translation!

maybe the song itself is not meant to be like MA part 2, but the lyric is relatable. and this song is really cool!! PS: the first 2 lines remind me of GAME, though. |
Thank you so much for the translation!!

"Once you turn into a memory, you exist inside me forever
And that's the cruelest thing there is Give me myself back" Oof....some powerful writing here...I LOVE these lines.. |

I did my own translation of this one... Some of these lines have multiple ways you could translate them, and the result is that the song is a bit vague and hard to understand, and I think how each of us interprets this song is going to be very very personal.
I read the lyrics and I got much more of a feeling that this was about Aneki. It feels like Ayu may have been considering suicide in the past - and I don't think that's out of left field; I think songs like POWDER SNOW, NEVER EVER, Secret, and a few others sort of hint at suicidal thoughts too - but having resolved not to do it, she sees Aneki's suicide as a betrayal. Grief over something like suicide is a very, very complicated thing though and I could be completely wrong, of course. But that's the impression I got. Quote:

Thanks for providing this ^^ really good job! can I just point out that "憎む" translates to "to hate, to detest"? So I'd translate the "人を求め人を憎み" part to "craving people, hating people" literally. Thanks again for the hard work ^^
|
It IS translated as "hate" in my translation, are you referring to the fact that I put it in past tense? The line ends with past tense so I went with the whole line being past tense in general, though that may or may not have been her intention.

Some very powerful lyrics. I love it :)
Thanks for the translation |
I interpreted these lyrics differently I guess. The first time I read the lyrics, I thought of Ayu's decreasing fans. Especially on the part when she said as if a part of her body is being torn away.
Ayu once said that her fans will serve as her left ear during those years. she needed them most to continue singing. And one by onr they start to go away. We may think that Ayu is maybe aware of her decreasing popularity. Perhaps she doesn't mind it either. But who knows, if you may look upon things, its a bit sad after all. She might be over the lime light, but there might be times when she misses those days and this song is an embodiment of that occasional sadness. Just my opinion though lol |
Ooohhhh. And the fact that this song is called "Last minute" could imply it's a sequel to "count down" too, which was a rock ballad as well... it really lends some validity to your thinking there! I'm wondering if the whole song is just about how hard it is for her to cope with any loss, since it really does seem to jump from perspective to perspective and from story to story the more I look at it.
One of the coolest things about Ayu's lyrics back in the day was that they were often so specific that they were vague, and listeners could take the real-world things she described and apply them to their own experiences and feelings and thoughts, interpreting those specific things in a very different way... I haven't seen a single interpretation on this thread that I would 100% disagree with. These interpretations are actually fascinating to read. Man, Ayu hasn't had lyrics as good as the ones on this single in a looooonnng time. |
these are AMAZING! musically, last minute was my automatic favorite off the single (what's better than rock ayu?) but these lyrics...wow, just powerful.
also, i agree with the memorial address comparisons. watching the cdl performance with the ballgown and the pained gestures, it really harkens back to the MA performance..i wonder how they're connected? |
i still can't get over these lyrics..they really pack a punch! :D
|
Thank you for this translation.
Ayu didn't make lyrics this great since a long time... Last minute reminds me of old songs too, but more of GUILTY than MA... |
