the idk what this song/pv means thread

[dawnss]

This is weird but a few weeks ago I broke my sony M2, so I have not been able to listen to too much Jpop lately. And to make it even worse I am still confused about the pv for walking proud . So lately I have really been appreciating Ayu's music much more than usual and I was thinking that it would be cool if there was a specific post where we could all discuss analysis of songs, so if you do not understand any particular lines, mvs, or an entire song in general why don't we all help each other out and lets get this show rolling. As I already posted I have tried time and time again to decipher the meaning behind the pv for walking proud and I remember that I posted before, I think the boy, the older man, and the younger man have to do with past (innonence), present (introspection and acceptance), and future (dignity), however this is the farthest I have ever gotten. So anyone who has ideas and questions is gladly welcomed!

Heehee I was confuzzled by that pv too XD But I do agree with you about the innocence, introspection and acceptance, and dignity...That's about as far as I've come too XD

But there's another pv that I don't get...I don't really understand how the ANGEL'S SONG pv actually relates to the song XD It was a really silly music video lol

[love in music]

the first thing i thought of when i saw this thread title was walking proud too. i also don't understand Moments, and i really want to because i know it probably has a really cool meaning. i'd say GREEN too but i think most people are completely stumped on that one.

which is why there's an edit and a delete button.

only thing I don't get. sparkle. really just don't get it.

[koumori]

I always thought Sparkle was because she's talking about being all forward and confident .. and that's what she's doing in the PV ~ I think the PV just compliments the lyrics really xD

[Kazeyomi]

ANGEL SONG'S is pretty lolwut more than Sparkle.
It should be renamed as WEREWOLF SONG'S D:

[terra]

IMO ANGEL'S SONG's lyric is talking about something like Guardian Angel so I guess Ayu's transformation into the werewolf and protecting the people there is guardian angel-like. I always though it like that

While walking proud talks about lies and surrounded by lies...that maybe represent by imitation beings, robots, a lie to life itself and the fake scenery. That life full of lies made Ayu escaped and becomes the black-haired Ayu. In the end Ayu found that she herself have also made lies (her robot), the potrait of 'I'll be my ideal self someday'.

Moments from lyric-wise, I see Ayu potraying the person who is described in the lyrics, the one whose heart is broken and such, dying for protection and warmth. So she was like teary-eyed and gloomy. I don't really know the whole kids and the wooden doll thing. The stained Ayu in feathers and black paint? maybe describing the 'offering my wings to your wounded back'. idk

^ I read that the director said the black paint is blood, but they didn't want it to have an adult rating.

I really don't get the 'point' in Talkin' 2 Myself.

And is Free & Easy, a kind of execution?

Yes, it's like the story of Joan of Arc.

YEAH, it seems sorta.

the central words to me are

Sometimes I ask myself,
how much farther will I have to go?
I hear your voice.
I hear a voice saying "don't give up"

[noidea]

^ yes, it is, Jeanne d'Arc was executed and it pretty much is the story of hers, she was burned(alive I think...)

[yuki_unmei]

this line in Together When... i always get stumped by:

Maybe I shall be born again to myself some day
And start a journey to seek for you

whut's that supposed to mean?

i found a better translation

"Someday I'll be reborn as myself again
And I'll probably go on a journey to find you"

it's pretty clear what it means from that one

[gallowsCalibrator]

^I always interpreted it as she'll be renewing herself so she will be happy with how she is or something...Idk, I'm just guessing XDD

[hsienko]

I'm confused by the Days PV. Like I get she fantasizes about being with the guy but I can't really figure out which one is the fantasy and which part is reality.

[gallowsCalibrator]

^Yeah, that definitely makes more sense to me too XD

Sometimes a little mistranslation leaves people confuzzled lol
But it's really hard to translate things from Japanese so I don't complain

[YuriChan]

Boys and Girls... wth?
