I've been reading through some romanized and translated lyrics for BBS, and I have to ask, why isn't there any translation for what she sings from 2:54 -> 3:10? After that it's just the chorus repeated, but I just want to know if what I'm hearing in the second line ("I'll be okay, mummy, daddy") is actually the lyrics, or if I'm just making them up in my head.

***koumori*** · #2 12th February 2011, 04:27 PM

^ I hear that too, don't worry.

Sorry I can't help more with the question, tenshi is the one to ask about her translations.

tenshi no hane · #3 12th February 2011, 04:32 PM

^

That part isn't included in the official lyrics and her voice is too warped there for me to understand by ear.

Earth_maiden · #4 12th February 2011, 04:52 PM

how weird, I wonder why there's no official lyrics for that part of the song...

Also, does anyone have an online version of the lyric's for Demon's Phone Call? I'm still waiting on YA to ship my copy of the album.

^...probably because she speaks fluent English from a Japanese standpoint...at least, that's what it seems like to me.

She speaks a lot in the same ways that I hear other Japanese people speak English.

and omg

@ Underworld.

"When I was little, my family and I spoke mostly in English, so it was Western music that I got into."

I'd say from that quote alone that she knows English pretty well, but like Emiko said, from a Japanese standpoint. She understands everyone on Twitter perfectly, but I think she gets stuck on how to reply sometimes

But i think she speaks english without that japanese accent, or at least way less.

Underworld has some great songs on that album, i love the song Diamond Jigsaw, thanks MAA for sharing haha

prussian blue · #8 5th February 2011, 01:50 PM

I'm not sure if her situation is similiar like Anna Tsuchiya or not. Both are American mix, speaks English with their parents when they are small, but Anna's English isn't fluent anymore as the time pass by. She still doing English lyrics for her song, and pronounce them quite well in the songs, but not in a conversation. I've heard her speaking English in youtube and she speaks with a Japanese accent and isnt fluent at all.

Kashoku · #9 5th February 2011, 05:03 PM

Thanks for the info!!!

Bad pronunciation doesn't bother me so much as the fact the grammar is allll wrong lol!!! It doesn't bother me so much with Namie and Kuu because I know they don't know english but to have an entire song in english I was like "wait whatttt!?" lol!!!

Well her pronuncation is mostly good, but sometimes she uses the japanese accent so it fits the melody

But as far as the grmmar, yea sometimes it's bad

***koumori*** · #11 5th February 2011, 06:33 PM

Whatever, the song is still kick-ass

Plus, the more Western fans that talk to her via Twitter, the more used she'll be to talking in English...

And also, then she'll know how many Western fans she has <3 LoL

Kashoku · #12 6th February 2011, 03:48 PM

^ Omg where did you get the pics in your sig?!?! I haven't been able to find any pictures of her except the Covers!!!

Second that! Maa looks great there.
Koumori, tell us where they're from, please!

OMG, i didn't find Nightmare, BUT I DID FIND THE LYRICS

These are the lyrics, but i only don't know for sure about the last 2 stanza's if that's part of the song.

I knew this were the lyrics cause i used a romaji translator and the first stanza was what we could hear from the song in the video on her site.

ナイトメア

新規恋愛預金口座作れないの？
使い果たしてから
好き好き貯金が貯まんない　ナイトメア

初めて入れたタトゥー記念に
あいつのName　彫ったせいで
他のオスをハントしづらくなって
恋愛破産状態

新規恋愛貯金口座作れないよ
作ったところでまた
好き好き貯金は貯まんない　ナイトメア

知らないうちに
ホステージになる契約サインした気分
また体脂肪増える予感・・・ナイトメア

好きな気持ちが生まれたら、毎日ナイトメア
心配で不安で　あなたを探してる
あなたのこと考えちゃうと、傍にいないだけで
心の真ん中から、何かが突き抜けるような感覚
苦しい、鼓動が激しく脈を打つ
心の真ん中に、血が逆流していくような感覚
白く、痺れていく指先

冷たくなっちゃう前に
手を握って、抱きしめて、キスをして･･･夢から醒まして

and romaji, from internet (from a kanji to romaji translating site)

Nightmare

shinki renai yokin kouza tsukure nai no ?
tsukaihatashi te kara
sukizuki chokin ga taman nai naitomea

hajimete ire ta tato?? kinen ni
aitsu no Name hotta sei de
ta no osu o hanto shi duraku natte
renai hasan joutai

shinki renai chokin kouza tsukure nai yo
tsukutta tokoro de mata
sukizuki chokin ha taman nai naitomea

shira nai uchi ni
ho suteeji ni naru keiyaku sain shi ta kibun
mata karada shibou fueru yokan...naitomea

suki na kimochi ga umare tara, mainichi naitomea
shinpai de fuan de anata o sagashi teru
anata no koto kangae chau to, hata ni i nai dake de
kokoro no mannaka kara, nani ka ga tsukinukeru you na kankaku
kurushii, kodou ga hageshiku myaku o utsu
kokoro no mannaka ni, chi ga gyakuryuu shi te iku you na kankaku
shiroku, shibire te iku yubisaki

tsumetaku nacchau mae ni
te o nigitte, dakishime te, kisu o shi te... yume kara samashi te

Omg, you are a beautiful amazing person

LoL~ Thanks so much!!

And to Kashoku and Corvina, I found them on a fan site - although, I'm sure they're up on MarBell's Last FM page too.

I've got a lot of MAA photos, and I've thinking I'm uploading them all to MAAworldwide if there's enough people wanting me too. (Only because there's so many

) But you can find more at www.marbell.jp, in the photo gallery, and also from searching around old fansites. And MAA's blog of course.~

Oh, and here's the two original photos from my set, if you want them.

ナイトメア

Translation:

Nightmare

Can’t I open a new-love-bank account?
After using up all my savings
I don’t save up anything new. Nightmare

Because I carved his name in my skin
To commemorate my first tattoo
It’s difficult to hunt for another male
Love bankruptcy

I can’t open a new-love-bank account
After creating one
I don’t save up anything. Nightmare

I feel like I’ve unknowingly signed
A contract to be taken hostage
I think my body fat will increase again… Nightmare

Every day has been a nightmare since I started loving you
Worried and anxious, I search for you
When I think about you and remember you’re not here
It feels like something is piercing my heart
Painful, my heart pounds and throbs
It feels like the blood in my heart is flowing in the wrong direction
My fingertips turn white and numb

Hold my hand, embrace me, kiss me… release me from this dream
Before I grow cold

~~~~

I'm not sure of the 3rd line, because the 好き好き is throwing me off >.>

Judging his other posts, I doubt that the last two stanza's are truly part of the lyrics. They're probably the blog poster's own words. (The poster puts 'BGM♪　ナイトメア / MAA' in between the first 4 and last 2 stanzas and in his other posts BGM signals the end of the lyrics).

He only types out parts of the lyrics in other posts so I doubt these are the full lyrics.

I hope we'll actually get to hear this song once XD;

MAA's latest tweet:

shotting!! 撮影‼ hentai!! 変態‼

Shotting, i think it should be shooting, cause that what the kanji says after if
And hentai, it means transformation, just like the kanji behind it, it says Hentai

maybe she is shooting a new video?

waterballoon · #18 7th February 2011, 04:05 PM

^ hentai means anime porn. oh dear MAA what u doing?!

ayufan- · #19 7th February 2011, 04:10 PM

@waterballoon when i used translategoogle it said Transformation so that's something totaly different.

Ooh she made me actually very curious what she i doing right know and what she means with her tweet

***koumori*** · #20 7th February 2011, 04:17 PM

Actually, for me the kanji after hentai translates to "pervert!!". And hentai is definitely anime porn, translategoogle is full of crap.
