Thanks for linking the live performance, Pommy

...I really want to see her and alan collaborate now..I'm not sure how their voices would work together, but if done right it'd be a duet from the heavens

Ah I've worked so hard to translate Cables's lyrics
Spoiler:
Only translated one line


Cables
In a baobab tree
Root exposed
Capsized
Weak as a beetle
You wake me up every spring and I unfurl
See that grin
Tell me I’m feeble
Tell me I’m alone
And I feel the cables that tether me
Grow weak and unstable
The earth will not keep me

I will wait in these chains
Like a bomb
Shackles thirty and rusting
Crumbling and strained
A voice is faintly calling for me
And I feel the cables that tether me
Grow weak and unstable
The earth will not keep me

================================================== ========

And here's Shadows...It didn't make sense in Chinese, so I doubt it will make sense in English
The actual translation of "Shadows" should be "Shadow World"

Shadows
Things. Emptiness.
Shadows. Lost.
Shadow world. Shadows within that world.

don't go there don't be a hero
no one cares take you to zero
don't go there you will be sorry
don't you dare go out in glory

Yellow dusk. Hole.
Back to basics. I'm not myself.
Shadow world. Shadows within that world.

don't go there don't be a hero
no one cares take you to zero
don't go there you will be sorry
don't you dare go out in glory

Things. Empty
Shadows. Lost.
Yellow dusk. Holes.
Back to basics. I'm not myself.
Ideas. Reversal
Time. Thick fog.
Chaos.

don't go there don't be a hero
no one cares take you to zero
don't go there you will be sorry
don't you dare go out in glory

I'm the designated SingerSen translator

And here's Wolf~!
I seriously love how she sound like she's howling in the song!

Wolf
It's closing in, the sound of a heartbeat
Breathe breathe breathe, it's crowded
A hot shady atmosphere, fresh memories
A gibberish song, I bit down on the mystery

It's closing in, the sound of a heartbeat
Breathe breathe breathe, it's crowded
With nothing to fear, I cannot stop
Chase chase chase, the temptation of blood

edit: Another translation!

Asura
Life and death are flickering
Who cares how time goes by?
He shakes heaven and earth. He shakes mountains and earthquakes
Who is this person that can call upon wind and beckon the rain?

Asura
As spring leaves and autumn arrives
He mumbly sings
"I'm free"

Asura, anatta within the chaos
Asura, talking to himself

Searching for that nascent soul
Content with one's good and evil
A heavenly festival with morals ahead and literature behind
Tsk tsk at those troubling words, how can one withstand it?

Asura
As spring leaves and autumn arrives
He mumbly sings
"I'm free"

Asura, anatta within the chaos
Asura, talking to himself
Asura, anatta within the chaos
Asura, talking to himself


*Asura is a group of people, but since she didn't use a pronoun, I just used "he"
*Nascent means "just coming into existence and beginning to display signs of future potential; not yet fully developed."
*Anatta refers to the notion of "not-self" or the illusion of "self". In the early texts, the Buddha commonly uses the word in the context of teaching that all things perceived by the senses (including the mental sense) are not really "I" or "mine", and for this reason one should not cling to them

Lots of free time....so

Dust
Sunlight fliters through the glass windows
I begin to wake up.
No one cares where our bodies lie
Including myself.
No desires, no emotions
But just quietly keeping a distance from the world
No words, no traces
Just like this, floating in the air

I just want to drift, drift. Drift, drift
I just want to drift, drift. Drift, drift
Until I'm old

Another gust of wind blows by
I dizzily whirl through the air
I've long grown used to this kind of tear
Well, it's like no one will remember
No tears, no sadness
The past, the present, it has long left me
No struggle, no strength
Maybe one day, I will forget myself

I just want to drift, drift. Drift, drift
I just want to drift, drift. Drift, drift
Until I'm old

Blue Jellyfish
I've swum for a long time, this blue planet
I just want a taste of this new kind of freedom

During the day and in the night, I've never looked back
My transparent body lights up

At the end of my dreams, you wave to me
Desiring for my gentleness

Your smiling face, your touching glance
Should I reach out my hands?

In that instant moment, the brilliant sky
Stings my eyes

The ice-cold net, the ice-cold boat
Ceased my breath

Your smiling face, the call of the devil
Kills my love

The blue fantasy, the blue flames
Are no match for your danger

At the end of my dreams, the blue planet
Will you be lonely after losing me?

Singer
I walk past the antelope's hilltops
I walk past the elf's mines
I wiggle through the mole's granary
Ne ne ne ne
I hear the dwarfs singing
Ding dong ding dong

I walk past the hummingbird's greenhouse
I walk past the elephant's cemetery
I sleep atop the dinosaur's eggshell
Ne ne ne ne
I dreamt of the angel's kitchen
Ding dong ding dong

La~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I walk past the turtle's riverbed
I walk into the baby's dream
I hop across the penguin's wave
Ne ne ne ne
I see the mermaid's moonlight
Ding dong ding dong

that song just makes me laugh cause...there was this one time when I was all high...and, I had this...vision thingy about a beach with pink jellyfish, and how, if you were a good person, you could go up and give them hugs....

but if you were a douchebag person, they'd turn blue and suffocate you...


anyways...excited for the mv

She said that for the MV, it was shot entirely underwater and they took 9 months to edit it.

And also, she doesn't know how to swim lol

I wonder if Mimichild's avatar was from the shoot?

They're been using her underwater photoshoot as the promo image for this MV and now I see why
The actual MV sucks

I have no idea why they took so long to edit the video and it still looks like that

I have the lyrics for Snow Queen
(by google translate)

The story began from a little girl,
She did not have a father and mother
She was always a person telling their own stories,
Nobody cares about her
One night, she woke up crying,
Wake of the front of the snowman
Tell her that as long as the exchange with tears,
She will have a home

Wow ~
The devil summon temptation fragile desire

The little girl walked into the kingdom of snow
Where my father and mother
She was becoming increasingly frail,
And unhappy
She shed more tears of grief,
She wanted to go home begging Snowman
The snowman exposed hideous face
Will not let her go

Wow ~
The devil summon temptation fragile desire

Tears snowman body blood
The snow Kingdom snow world
Too many children are imprisoned here.
Just because cowardly
She vowed to defeat the Snowman
No longer afraid to shed tears,
Told myself to be brave,
Strong life

Wow ~
The devil summon temptation fragile desire
The devil summon temptation fragile desire
