Keita's Ameblo Translation: June 23, 2012

VMAJ2012. by Keita

It was so fun o(^▽^)o
I had so much fun on stage and even backstage, with all of the amazing artists.
I quite enjoyed talking with AAA's Hidaka-un, Shuuta-kun, and Chiaki-chan.

I received AAA's new song Still Love You and SKY-HI's album FLOATING' LAB -- I'm looking forward to listening to them after this!!
I'd be really happy if they listened to w-inds.' new album MOVE LIKE THIS!

And here's the four of us guys who went to eat together!!

Say Yes romaji

here are the requested romaji lyrics for "Say Yes." the resource i used is Mojim.com.

Every time
kimi ni mitsumerareru tabi
girl, you so fine
osaerarenai
feelings afure go crazy go crazy

aisonai noni kamawanai
i'm losing control losing losing control
oh baby eyes to eyes awasure ga aizu
baby let's get it down

[REQUEST] Winter Story Lyrics Translation

I do not own these original lyrics or the song, found at J-Lyric.Net. The album cover, which I do not own, is provided by this site.

The streets lighten up in an orderly fashion

adorned with the diamond-like light.

It's coming soon

Nobody can sleep, in order to congratulate each other on that day.

If the white scenery changes before your eyes,

welcome it. 

It would be great

if we were all nicer than we usually are.

I didn't want to become 

someone who's just passing by in your life.

Always believe 

in our miracle and in this sparkling day.

It's starting up, beyond this endless sky.

A persuading WINTER STORY

so we can draw the continuation of our tale, 

[REQUEST] Night Flight ~ Yakan no Hikou lyrics translation

at midnight, all together, the sun's BRIGHT LIGHTS
at the Southern Cross
fly away on time. That's MY FLIGHT
and time passes by

even though you said you wanted to break up with me,
i want to see you now

it's okay if it isn't love
i wanna be with you
it's okay if my dream never happens
i want to dream on
just a little ways to go...
on my NIGHT FLIGHT towards you

[REQUEST] Now You're Gone lyrics translation

This is another post for 18 Days to Michishirube. Keita assisted in writing this song for w-inds.



[The] WIND BLOWS, [then] SILENCE.
I SAW YOU [in the] MOONLIGHT
The waves kept rolling in
and the sand quietly pulled in
Your silhouette was glowing.
I just wanted to hold you like that.

At that moment, eternity had
changed a bit, but
then it was erased at dawn

NOW YOU'RE GONE
Our one meeting in this one lifetime
NOW YOU'RE GONE
It was just a short while, but
The love that melted in the morning sunlight
is only a memory, left behind
NOW YOU'RE GONE
Like a midsummer night's dream,
NOW YOU'RE GONE

Yuta Tachibana's Ameblo: Sept. 14, 2011

This was Yuta's approach to the Twitter incident Keita has been facing. 

It's Just Me, but [I was Thinking...] by Yuta Tachibana (Keita's older brother)

I was looking at a certain artist's blog and...
It seems as if people were saying thing like, "You're singing for money!"
Isn't that normally what happens with a singer?

It's like... that's what work is.
I think it's great someone can sing a song that people want to hear so badly, they pay for it.
*If it were me ~ I wouldn't want any bitter comments*

Well, now that that's established. lol

I thought it was common sense that those who sing their songs are paid in return...
That's what work is, isn't it?
No matter what kind of work it is, you get paid.
Funding the people who are [doing this work for you] is showing your thanks, isn't it?
Even if at one point, they sang for money, it's not at all abnormal...

[REQUEST] Candle (KT) lyrics translation

This was done by request, using J-Lyric for the kana. I do not own this song or its lyrics.

The passing people
are all smiling
I'm walking towards
the place where we made our promise

In my numb hand
are the faint memories I had with you
They definitely were
blooming.

Do you remember?
We made a promise to each other.
"We should meet here again next here."

[REQUEST] Natsu Matsuri

Natsu matsuri means summer festival, which is one tradition in Japanese culture. 
This song was done by request using J-Lyric, and I do not own this song or its lyrics.

Where do we continue on from here...? The memories of the streamflow are
becoming known,  and the bamboo-leaf boat goes floating on
In their own chests are passing memories of the heart.

As I'm wrapped in the wind of my hometown,
I've returned again this year, to the summer festival
It's okay to hang around here... that sound is lingering,
the murmuring voice

For some reason, the phone rings on the days you seem so discouraged
And now the smiles of your family are gently overlapping each other
Even this year, we were able to meet without any problems, at the summer festival...

[REQUEST] Still on the Street lyrics translation

I do not own his song or its original lyrics. This was done by request, using J-Lyric for the kana.

WE ARE JUST STILL ON THE STREET.
We're continuing down all the streets
THE STARTING POINT OF A DREAM

[HOLLA BACK!] right now, the fears we'd known are coming to mind, as well as our passions
[WOO, MAYBE] We're not meant to leave [the stage] yet
[NOW AND THEN] We've placed things in our hands, in order to protect them, [though] we've somehow lost something.
[FOREVER] ... we'll never forget

Once before there was a gap between "who we want to be" and "who we are today"
Laugh when you want to cry ... we knew of that kind of strength

WE ARE JUST STILL ON THE STERET
At the corner of that street, our dreams keep reoccurring
WE ARE JUST STILL ON THE STREET
In our hearts now is a brave HONESTY
WE DANCE AND SING FOR YOU

[REQUEST] Best of My Love lyrics translation

I do not own the song or its original lyrics. i used J-Lyrics for the kana. this was done by request. you can make one, too, by commenting on this post or on the shoutbox near the bottom right of this page. you can also leave us a message on Twitter (i'm @windstowords).

By figuring something out,
we're satisfied when we can place something in our hands.
If it's something that'll immediately get us lost,
from the very start, that's what it'll be.

I can't explain it well.
It's not that simple, but
I wish that we could once again
be together, piling on the memories

the lights in this area are ever so hazy.
These precious things
aren't meant to be so plentiful.
i'm not faking this. and it isn't an exaggeration.
YOU'RE MY EVERYTHING

[REQUEST] Deny lyrics translation

This was done at request, using J-Lyric for the kana. I do not own this song or its original lyrics.

It was a serious love ... It was my first of that kind,
so I couldn't understand "goodbye"
An eternity happened in the blink of an eye
I  thought that fate was an accident
We met like it was love, but no matter how many times we crossed each other's paths
I always compared her to you.
...OH, BABE. Until I see you again. AND NOW I...

TONIGHT... I WISH THAT YOU WERE HERE
TONIGHT... I NEED TO HAVE YOU NEAR
COME WASH AWAY MY TEARS
AND NOW I JUST WANNA DENY [when I said,]
"I won't fall in love again"
I'll break that vow now.
I can only see you.

[REQUEST] Will Be There ~ Koigokoro lyrics translation

This was done as a request, using J-Lyrics for the kana. I do not own the song or its original lyrics.

Just as usual, we pass time that doesn't change us, and I've realized something:
Even when we're apart, it feels as if you're here.
It's not just some apparent thought, it's not something so simple
And throughout that, I can't properly say the words that are overflowing.

The chest pains that are out of reach
Looking for a reason is the road no one's taken yet.

In this world, there's only one special heart in love for you
even if we get caught, we'll seem to be lost
growing up is difficult, but
i won't forget the feelings i have now, because you're my everything
in hopes the two of us can definitely go back to
the moment that i called out for you with love

[REQUEST] Some More lyrics translation

This was done by request using J-Lyric. I don't own the song or its original lyrics.

SEE IT IN YOUR EYES Who are you looking for?

LOOKIN' FOR A LIE What are you hiding?

you're just waiting for his email...

and you keep drumming your fingernails against the table

GIMME GIMME GIMME SOME MORE

i'm not your friend

GIMME GIMME GIMME SOME MORE

you're not regretting this, are you?

give me your overflowing love

GIMME GIMME GIMME SOME MORE ... SOME MORE

IN MY ROOM the FANTASY i've created
HONESTLY, there aren't any boring things
BELIEVE! If the dream that's come true
is just an illusion, beyond reality

HOW DOES IT FEEL?
Taking our time watching the sky, we CHILL [out]
DAYDREAM! of a pointless journey
With our footprints, we advance forward
