Such a beautiful song. I loved it after the first listen <3

My favourite parts are when she sings higher pitched - she pulls it off so well <3

cool & I ♥ xxx is so much way better than Zokkondition / LUCKY☆STAR by a long shot

I hope I ♥ xxx will get a physical release soon

the only thing I don't like about I ♥ xxx is otsuka kept going 'I love you' a great deal no. of times but I gladly take this song over Zokkondition / LUCKY☆STAR & it sounds like Ai & LOVE MUSiC which's not a bad thing I guess

completely agree. reminds me more of Ai than LOVE MUSiC though.

such a beautiful performance btw her vocals were so good as usual.

I don't know what to say about I <3 xxx!

She seemed so natural in that live, the lyrics were so lovely, and it was just so heartfelt and simple.

she frankly disappointed me with Zokkondition / LUCKY☆STAR & I thought she lost her magic touch but it doesn't seem so after I heard I ♥ xxx which I find it very enduring & touching

hopefully lyrics for I ♥ xxx will surface soon on the net

I was going to maybe post a translation here since I really liked the lyrics, but probably very soon, if not already, there will be a better translation, and many for that matter.

I think she needs to at least officially announce things before she goes of and performs them on TV . I just hope it won't be a couple of months before this is released like with Lucky Star, or for us to even know what it is.

avex made a mistake in releasing both Zokkondition & LUCKY☆STAR as digital songs

if not I suspect sales for the single would have been much better/higher if that didn't happen

hopefully they will not make the same mistake with regards to I ♥ xxx

I think I'll have to listen to I ♥ XXX again to get a good opinion, but I accidentally ran across this when I was looking for the video online.

http://en.kendincos.net/video-prfpfd...uka-i-xxx.html

It's some chorus singing I ♥ XXX. It's kind of interesting. They're very pretty.

...Virtually every single and album by every major artist is released digitally these days too so what do you mean?

sorry what I meant to say's that LUCKY☆STAR & Zokkondition were released as digital downloads way back in Feb & the physical release single for Zokkondition / LUCKY☆STAR came in last month

I think people who already downloaded both songs in Feb do not see any incentive to get the physical CD single as there's no B-side or extra goodies attached to it .

Sales might have been better if both songs weren't released as digital downloads

^ Yeah that makes total sense and was a weird move for them.

That single sold around 10K right? Only 50 times less than Sakuranbo...

I did a quick (and I mean really quick, I'm half asleep at the moment) translation of I ♥ XXX for you guys since someone was asking for it. It was relatively easy, but there are a few parts I'm not 100% sure I'm getting the perfect translation for. Strobe, maybe you can help me out.

I love you, my family
I love you forever, my friend and
I love you, my only lover
And you and you,

I love you, my family
I love you, my family
I love you forever, my friend and
I love you, my only lover
And you and you and you, yeah

I won’t forget when you said we were splitting up,
Whichever one you try to choose, that is the treasure you found. (I'm not quite sure on these two sentences)
I love you, yesterday’s story
I love you, the story of the future
I love you, the casual today
And my dream…

I love you, yesterday’s story
I love you, the story of the future
I love you, the casual today
And my dream…myself myself yeah

Even if the heart comes to be impure, even if the unclouded eye tries to believe,
It’s not bad. That’s the beginning of treasure (?).

I love you, the music I often hear.
I love you, the night, starlight and moon
I love you, the sea that rides the wind
And the sky!

I love you, the music I often hear.
I love you, the night, starlight and moon
I love you, the sea that rides the wind
And the sky! Sky! Sky!

I love you la la la la la
I love you la la la la la la la
I love you la la la la la
La la la la

I love you la la la la la
I love you la la la la la la la
I love you la la la la la
La la la la
La la

I love you la la la la la
I love you la la la la la la la
I love you la la la la la
La la
La La

I love you la la la la la
La la

Aww, I like I ♥ XXX. The song is for the same program that Hikaru Utada's "Boku wa Kuma" was for, "Minna no Uta" (Everyone's Song).

No matter how much we may be separated I won't forget you
Every single one I took was a treasure I found
(Neither am I; I wasn't sure if the itatte was "ita" + "tte" as in "to iu" or if it was "itatte" as in "ite mo"..)

Even if my heart becomes impure, if you try to believe my unshaken eyes, there'd be nothing wrong with that
That was the treasure I had from the start

(HTF do you translate ぶれない瞳?)

I LOVE YOU, the music I often hear
I LOVE YOU, nights of starlight and moon
(only because it was written as '夜starlight and moon')



And that's all! I wonder what other translations will look like... Again, this isn't 100% accurate mostly likely peoples.

See, that's where I'm not too sure either. I would have been easy to translate if it did say "itemo" but it didn't so...I guess the only thing I could conclude was that it was from "iu."

I still think it'd be "even if..." for the eyes part because it also ended in "temo." And rikai said bureru is like...blurred in the sense of a blurry photograph. So I took burenai as "clear" I guess. :Shrug And is THAT how you translate sore wa saisho kara aru takaremono???? Actually, that makes so much sense now that I look at it. LOL. It was like 3 AM when I translated it.

See, I thought that BECAUSE it was "wa" that it was nights, starlight and moon. The "wa" makes it it's own thing. If it was nights of starlight and moon or the starlight and moon of the night the particle would have been like "no" or "de" or "ni" or something. I wasn't sure it was nights AND because the particle wasn't "to" either, though. I can see how it could possibly be nights of starlight and moon, but with her throwing those particles into random English sentences it's really hard to know.
