Title: Jpop goodness (or weirdness, I'm not sure)
Post by: Hisenflaye on 04. April 2007, 11:27:41 (11:27 AM)

I've wanted to show this one to Feli forever, it's ... well, unique in it's oddness. The premise of the video is that she fell in love with a guy she realizes is just like her father, and she's turning into her mother as she gets older. The uh ... "guy" in the striped suit represents genes that get passed on, turning you into your parents. They're not very subtle about are they?  :o i love this video

ROFL I liked it... But there one thing I'd love to read now... A translation of the lyrics :P

Japanese are amazing, or totaly insane, I'm not sure ;)

Translation:
It seems I am going out with/attracted to a person like my dad
I noticed afterwards; mysterious?
I have a feeling I am becoming like my mum
When I get old it'll be like that; a mystery?

While I'm in love everything about you is ALL RIGHT!
I don't need reasons or theories. STAND UP!
The suprising fact of being attracted is the best proof.
Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha

It's the love-pattern of a tulip
The more you kiss [him] the more you will start to like [him]
It's the love-pattern of a tulip
If you kiss you will find fate's match for you.

When you live with him you will start to take after him,
You become one. Mystery?

While I'm in love, everything becomes twice the power
I don't need defences or weakness! DANCING!
You can't separate us, it's like that.
Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha

It's the love-pattern of a tulip
The more you kiss the deeper the colours become
It's the love-pattern of a tulip
If you kiss, one story begins STORY

It's the love-pattern of a tulip
It's the love-pattern of a tulip

It's the love-pattern of a tulip
The more you kiss [him] the more you will start to like [him]
It's the love-pattern of a tulip
If you kiss you will find fate's match for you.

Mysterious genes, mysterious genes, mysterious genes
Mysterious genes, mysterious genes, mysterious genes
Mysterious genes, mysterious genes, mysterious genes
Mysterious genes, mysterious genes, mysterious genes

None at all. Crack-smoking song writer write lyrics for american pop. What is nice about jpop is (sometimes) that there is a level of simple innocence that comes out in the songs. Alot of it may seem odd, but thats lost in translation or idiomatic cultural reference that is hard to grasp being a gaijin
