L'Arc en Ciel "Nexus 4"

L'Arc en Ciel!!!

The song is awesome!!
It starts vaguely in the beginning. But as the beats got stronger, you can hear the superb drum play. Gosh, the rhythm changes every 3 or 4 bars! In total, as i heard it myself, it has 6-7 different drum rhythm!
Sukkoii!!!!!!

The song is used for the new ad of Subaru Legacy.

Romaji Lyric:
Atenaku tadayou TRAFFIC JAM
Machi wa muchitsujo sosogu ame wa ACID RAIN
Asu e no kuuseki mo naku
mayoeru bokura wa yume miteru ELECTRIC SHEEP

Itsu kuru ka shiranai
akogare no toki
kusuburu kanjou wa,
tada damatte matterarenai

Miageta nara yozora o kirisaite
kakenoboru JET bokura o michibiku sabitsuita

Mussu ni zoushoku suru TRAPS

Mirai wa kasouteki kuukan e
kekkyoku tashika na mono wa kono omoi dake sa

Nagameru bakari no moeyuku honoo

Miageta nara yozora o kirisaite

Tsukaisuteraretatte mikaeshite yaru sa

Kimi ga miageta nara takaku
kakenoboru JET bokura ga tabidatsu saa tobinore
SPACE AGE YOU VIRTUAL GENERATION!

English Translation:

A traffic jam moving aimlessly
A chaotic city, acid rain drizzling
There is no vacant seat for tomorrow
We might get lost dreaming electric sheep

Without knowing when the
Time we yearn for will come,
our smoldering feelings
We can’t just wait in silence

If we raise our eyes
a jet is flashing past cutting the night sky
Our guide
Our rusted wings haven’t yet fallen away
And our souls howl with more passion than theirs
So, let’s wake up to the NEXT AGE

Traps countlessly spreading,
make 1 mistake and you are dismissed DELETE
The future moves toward a virtual space
In the end the only certainties are these hearts

We keep staring at the flames burning away,
our chance’s blown
We can’t just wait in silence

If we raise our eyes
a jet is flashing past cutting the night sky
Our guide
We are still believing and so we run,
for surely we are still in time
Leap up the speed, we will never run away
So, let’s jump upon the NEXT AGE

Look back at what has been thrown away
Freedom from 0 has been captured by the strongest MONSTER

The thunderous surging roar is covering the countdown start
Go with your beat SAY 321GO!
If you raise your eyes a jet is flashing past high above We begin our journey
So, let’s jump onto SPACE AGE YOU VIRTUAL GENERATION!

L'Arc en Ciel "Link"

L'Arc en Ciel. o yeah!
This happy-sya-la-la-upbeat song is used for Full Metal Alchemist Movie opening theme.
I love the song, the lyric, the clip, the hilarious of Hyde on the clip, and of course the movie [FMA].

Romaji Lyric

oboeteiru kai?
osanai koro kara tsumasakidachi de todokanai tobira ga atta yo ne

English Translation

Do you remember?
When we were young, there was a door we couldn't reach even standing on tiptoes
Not caring about the time, we just wandered about
and always end up in the road's maze

I couldn't stop myself from unconsciously searching for your smile
Even now, nothing has changed,I still keep on running to you

No matter how apart we are, our feelings are linked and connected together
Even if a mischievous fate befalls us, it will never break

Someone should have noticed
That the future that we've been yearning for is just ahead
Someday, on a clear cloudless day,
I want to show you a world where the tools of war had already disappeared

This world's falling apart, where people can't stop hurting each other
But because I've met you, I don't fear anything anymore

I don't care how much my body burns, as long as it's for you
I'll fly up the pure white heavens and protect you

No matter how apart we are, our feelings our connected
Even if a mischievous fate befalls me,it will never break

I don't care how much my body burns, as long as it's for you
I would be nice if one day, I can show you the world born anew

READY STEADY CAN'T HOLD ME BACK
READY STEADY GIVE ME GOOD LUCK
READY STREADY NEVER LOOK BACK
LET'S GET STARTED READY STEADY GO

Sceneries being blown away seem to whirl in front of me
Even if I get desperate, I won't overlook my target anymore

An unreliable map should be burnt
I'll grasp onto the buried truth with my hands

I came running frantically -hastily-
The throb of my heartbeats feels deafening enough to burst
Your voice is echoing -shouting-
There's no time to be like standing still here
READY STEADY GO

Even if my countless wounds get hugged
For a moment and gently, I won't let my soul get taken
On the other side of that hill, if I met you
I'd only think about what to start talking from

I came running frantically -hastily-
The throb of my heartbeats feels deafening enough to burst
Your voice is echoing -shouting-
There's no time to be like standing still here
READY STEADY GO

READY STEADY CAN'T HOLD ME BACK
READY STEADY GIVE ME GOOD LUCK
READY STREADY NEVER LOOK BACK
LET'S GET STARTED READY STEADY GO

My heart -runs- underneath that sky
I can't stop my idle feelings from crying out
Surely I'll -reach- you in a little while
The sunlight shines hotly across this path
READY STEADY GO
PLEASE. TRUST ME.
