Slight commentary on what is japanese and what is not.

God, I can't sleep again.
This is turning into a problem.


Thank you Spilledmilk25 for posting the lyrics to Yamapi's new single, One in a million.
But when I read them, I started laughing.
Not because I don't like the song.
But because I couldn't decide what language this song is in.

Itsukara kimi no kisu wa naozari? 
Ima mo why don't you touch my mind sugu ni
tell me why you don't see my eyes,
baby are we over?

Aishiau tame ni iru ability
Kore ijou wa mou nai hodo affinity
baby do you have another one?
they might conspire.

coz you're my one in a million
Sono mama de believe me
Kimi ga One in a million
Deaeta toki ni
baby it's my destiny

I'm gonna try."3,2,1" so count down
waratte yo boku no mae de one more time
one in a million
my one in a million

Kakuritsu wa by the 6th sense = 2%
Kimi wo ushinau koto end of the world
I wanna know that reason why
don't change your mind now

Maniau nara I wanna hold ya
Kuruisouna kurai so lonely soldier
baby I love you
from the bottom of heart
I miss ya

coz you're my one in a million
Dakara never say goodbye
Kimi ga One in a million
Dakiau tabi ni baby it's my destiny
I'm gonna try."3,2,1" so count down
I'm gonna hunt you down come day or night
one in a million
my one in a million

Unmei to omoi wa jikou wo koete
eien no saiai wo mata michibiku kara
be my one in a million
Kimi shika inai kara carry on
coz you're my one in a million

Sono mama de believe me
Kimi ga One in a million
Deaeta toki ni
baby it's my destiny
I'm gonna try."3,2,1" so count down
I'm gonna hunt you down come day or night
one in a million
my one in a million

Why even bother putting in the japanese? That's how I feel.
When writing this song, they must've thrown away all logic, because I can't make it make sense, no matter how I twist and turn it.

English is a beautiful language, and I know for a fact that Pi-chan is trying really hard to improve his english.
But this has gone too far.
I liked it when they would throw in random english words here and there, because that's normal. Everyone does that! No matter where they come from. But when it's the other way around, and you're throwing in japanese words here and there (as a japanese person) you have to realise that you're being ridiculous.
I say: Sing the song in english, or sing the song in japanese. (a bit of engrish is always ok, of course)


Anyway. I'm making this out to be a big deal.
It's not.


Go listen to the song. Let's support his solo career. I don't care that you think he should focus on NEWS activities. He's a grown man and he wants to do his own thing. Now shut your mouth and go buy the single.


That was harsh, M.


I know.
