dbsk in 'bokura no ongaku' 20090320

it seems that for the past days, i'm working on this blog alone. seriously, where are the authors???? 

dbsk/tohoshinki proved their worth in 'bokura no ongaku' last march 20. so so so impressed. 本当にすてき!!! they sang three ballads:

• らいおんハート (lion heart) - an original SMAP song. wonderful harmonization, great job. (go jaejoong, go junsu).
• 言葉にできない (kotoba ni dekinai) - translated roughly as "can't make words" is a Kazumasa Oda original. feel the passion in this performance.
• ボレロ (bolero) - the group's performance is powerful in itself. add to it the great orchestra with the flute. what more can you ask for?

see the must see performance in youtube before it gets deleted.

お楽しみに!!!

FLAVOR OF LIFE

ROMANIZATION

* arigatou to kimi ni iwareru to nandaka setsunai

sayounara no ato mo tokenu mahou awaku horonigai

the flavor of life, the flavor of life

tomodachi de mo koibito de mo nai chuukan chiten de

shuukaku no hi wo yume miteru aoi furuutsu

ato ippo ga fumidasenai sei de

jirettai no nan no tte baby

(Repeat*)

amai dake no sasoi monku ajike no nai doku

sonna mono ni wa kyoumi mo sosorarenai

omoitoori ni ikanai toki datte

jinsei suteta mon janai tte

doushita no to kyuu ni kikareru to uun nandemo nai

sayounara no ato ni kieru egao watashi rashikunai

shinjitai to negaeba negau hodo nandaka setsunai

aishiteru yo yori mo daisuki no hou ga kimi rashii n janai

the flavor of life

wasurekakete ita hito no kaori wo totsuzen omoidasu koro

furitsumoru yuki no shirosa wo motto sunao ni yorokobitai yo

daiyamondo yori mo yawarakakute atataka na mirai

te ni shitai yo kagiri aru jikan wo kimi to sugoshitai

(Repeat*)

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

*When you say, “Thank you,” to me

It hurts for some reason

Even after our goodbyes the spell isn’t lifted

It’s slightly bittersweet

The flavor of life

In that middle ground between friends and lovers

Unripe fruit dream of the harvest day

Because I can’t take another step forward

It’s way more frustrating than usual, baby

(Repeat*)

Tempting words that just sound sweet

Flavorless conversation

That sort of stuff doesn’t excite me

When things don’t go your way

You can’t just throw your life away

When you ask me, “What’s wrong?”

Oh nothing

After our goodbyes my smile disappears

That’s not like me

The more I wish to believe

The more it hurts for some reason

Instead of saying “I love you,” doesn’t “I like you a lot”

Fit you better?

The flavor of life

Those times I suddenly recall the scent of a person I was about to forget

I want to be more open to the joy of the falling snow’s white color

More than diamonds

I want to have a soft and warm future

I want to spend the time I have left with you

(Repeat*)

————————–

JAPANESE

※ありがとう、と君に言われると

なんだかせつない

さようならの後も解けぬ魔法

淡くほろ苦い

The flavor of life※

友達でも恋人でもない中間地点で

収穫の日を夢見てる　青いフルーツ

あと一歩が踏み出せないせいで

じれったいのなんのってbaby

(※くり返し)

甘いだけの誘い文句

味っけの無いトーク

そんなものには興味をそそられない

思い通りにいかない時だって

人生捨てたもんじゃないって

どうしたの?と急に聞かれると

ううん、なんでもない

さようならの後に消える笑顔

私らしくない

信じたいと願えば願うほど

なんだかせつない

「愛してるよ」よりも「大好き」の方が

君らしいんじゃない?

The flavor of life

忘れかけていた人の香りを　突然思い出す頃

降りつもる雪の白さをもっと　素直に喜びたいよ

ダイアモンドよりもやわらかくて

あたたかな未来　手にしたいよ

限りある時間を　君と過ごしたい

(※くり返し)

DBSK in NHK Utacon 20090317

just had to post this awesome live performance of "bolero". no need for more words. just listen to the song and be struck. includes a little interview too so it would be better if you know some japanese. basically, interview explains what tohoshinki means, how their experience in kouhaku (a grand music show held year end last year) was, and message to the fans. the song starts at 2:18. 

お楽しみに!!!

SMTown Collaboration: Evergreen

Since I saw my baby today(oops) and as a result, am feeling extremely happy, I decided to post one of my favorite songs from DBSK. My other baby(Changmin of course) personally wrote the lyrics to this song so I'm uber proud of him. There's more to him than meets the eye, I tell you. Changmin Hwaiting!


One of the songs from their 2007 SMTown Winter Collaboration.
Music by Micky Yoochun
Lyrics by Max Changmin XD(Love this namja to death)

동방신기

(재중)눈물에 얼룩져 버린 추억
귓가에 맴도는 니 목소리

바래진 색에 가려 한없이 지쳐만가
자꾸만 떨려오는 눈동자

(창민)비가 내리는 내맘 속에는
그대란 녹이 슬어 버렸어
지울 수 없는 것이 되어 이젠
퍼즐의 한조각으로 남아

날 부르고 있어

(유천)evergreen 서툴기만한 바보같은 난
그대가 주는 사랑을 모르고 살아왔죠

(준수)다시는 나의 곁에서 눈물 흘리지 않도록
어떤 슬픔도 가려주는 따뜻한 내가 되어 감싸 안을게

(윤호)미친듯이 뛰고있는 가슴과 피가 사라져 투명해진

(준수)두눈은 너를 찾아 해메 지금
어디서 듣고 있진 않을까

이길의 끝에

(재중)evergreen 서툴기만한 바보같은 난
그대가 주는 사랑을 모르고 살아왔죠

다시는 나의 곁에서 눈물 흘리지 않도록
어떤 슬픔도 가려주는 따뜻한 내가 되어
감싸안을게

(유천)그대없는난 무엇도 볼수 없겠죠
(윤호)그대없는난 무엇도 들리지 않죠

(준수)울지마요 내가 없는 지금 혼자인 그대니까
바보같은 너를 내품에 안고 닦아줄테니

(창민)evergreen 서툴기만한 바보같은 난
그대가 주는 사랑을 모르고 살아왔죠

(재중)다시는 나의 곁에서 눈물 흘리지 않도록
어떤 슬픔도 가려주는 따뜻한 내가 되어 감싸안을게

Evergreen

[Jaejoong]
Memories stained with tears,
Your voice rings in my ears.
Hidden by color, I'm getting exhausted,
My eyes keep trembling
[Changmin]
In my heart it's raining
And it has been covered with rust
Now I remain as one piece of puzzle,
And you are calling me.

Chorus:
[Yoochun]
Evergreen, evergreen.
Like an inexperienced fool,
I lived without seeing the love you were giving me
[Junsu]
From now on I won't let you cry;
I'll be the warmth that covers any sadness and embrace you
[Yunho]
My heart that beats like crazy, and
The rain has disappeared and it has all become clear.
[Junsu]
Hoping you'd be there listening, at the end of this road
My eyes are looking for you
I wonder if you are listening to it, somewhere

Chorus:
[Jaejoong]
Evergreen, evergreen.
Like an inexperienced fool,
I lived without seeing the love you were giving me
From now on I won't let you cry;
I'll be the warmth that covers any sadness and embrace you

[Yoochun]
Without you, I can't see anything
[Yunho]
Without you, I can't hear anything
[Junsu]
Don't cry, though you're alone without me now
I'll embrace you and wipe away your tears

Chorus:
[Changmin]
Evergreen, evergreen.
Like an inexperienced fool,
I lived without seeing the love you were giving me
[Jaejoong]
From now on I won't let you cry;
I'll be the warmth that covers any sadness and embrace you.

utada hikaru with "come back to me"

this is utada's new single and i've heard that this will be released in the US. owww.... so asian music is now coming to the western shores. this song has a slow beat to it and is all english. no need for multiple lyrics then. i do admit that she had better songs than this and i will be posting them in the future. but i do hope she does well.

the album will still be released on the 24th of march. 

enjoy!!!

COME BACK TO ME

The rain falls on my windows 

And the coldness runs through my soul 

And the rain falls, oh the rain falls 

I don’t want to be alone 

 

I wish that I could photoshop  

All our bad memories 

Cause the flashbacks, oh the flashbacks 

Won’t leave me alone 

 

If you come back to me 

I’ll be all that you need 

Baby, come back to me 

Let me make up for what happened in the past 

 

Chorus 

(Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

Boy you’re one in a million (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

You’re one in a million 

(You’re one in a million) 

 

Lower east side of Manhattan 

She goes shopping for new clothes 

And she buys this, and she buys that 

Just leave her alone 

I wish that he would listen to her 

Side of the story 

It isn’t that bad, it isn’t that bad 

And she’s wiser for it now 

 

I admit I cheated (admit I cheated ) 

Don’t know why I did it (why I did it) 

But I do regret it (do regret it) 

Nothing I can do or say can change the past 

 

Chorus 

(Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

Boy you’re one in a million (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

You’re one in a million 

(You’re one in a million) 

 

Everything I ever did 

Heaven knows I’m sorry babe 

I was too young to see 

You were always there for me 

And my curiosity 

Got the better of me 

Baby take it easy on me 

Anything from A to Z 

Tell me what you want to be 

I open my heart to be 

You are more priority 

Can’t you see you punished me 

More than enough already 

Baby take it easy on me 

 

Baby take it easy on me 

Baby come back to me 

Baby come back to me 

 

Chorus 

(Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

Boy you’re one in a million (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

You’re one in a million 

(You’re one in a million) 

 

(Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

Boy you’re one in a million (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

I’ll be everything you need (Come back) 

Baby come back to me (Come back) 

You’re one in a million 

(One in a million)
