Tasukete Part 2

Now, here is the kanji for "Ame ga Furu Mae Ni":

毎の方から吹く夏の風に潮の香り感じる
ある晴れた日の昼に
太陽はまだ高く雲ひとつ無い
でも週末は雨が降るでしょう
事も無げに告げられた天気予報
それよりも短い夏の晴れ間を楽しまなくちゃ
たから雨が降る前に 君だけに最後のメロデイー
明日も空が晴れるように 飛び出した木のそこ
たから雨が降る前に 君だけに最後のメロデイー
明日も空が晴れるように 見上げた青い空
毎の先に見えた 入道雲
わずかの間に広がり昼の空を閉ざした
まだまだ距離がある雷の音
でも明日から傘が要るでしょう
確実に近づく雨雲がもうすぐそこに
今も終わりゆく夏を楽しまなくちゃ
明日雨が降る前に 君だけ最後のメロディ
いつか空が晴れるように樹飛ばした靴の底
明日雨が降る前に 君だけ最後のメロディ
いつか空が晴れるように 見上げた遠い空
朝ご飯の片付けは後回し
その前に最後の夏の一日を楽しまなくちゃ
だから雨が降る前に 君と二人最後のメロディー
いつか夢が醒めた時  覚えているように
だから雨が降る前に 君と二人最後のメロディー
きっとまたいつかここで 小指に乗せた約束

Tasukete!

Hi, everybody! I need a favor.
I have this wonderful album called A Study in Blue by Millstones, and there were two songs I was really hoping to translate. I did a really rough translation of the songs, but if you're reading this would you mind hardsubbing it so I can make sure? If you could sub this entirely it'd be great.
The kanji for the first song, "Short Circuit", is here:

傾いた夕日の光背中に浴びて
変わらない銜を往くどうもうまくいかないや
声に出した言葉は時をぐるぐる回って
いつか君の心へ届くのかな?
今日も君と際れ違ってだけどそれに気づかなくて
それでも思うたより心は傷ついて
明日君にごめんぬってそれもどうせ 際れ違って
伝わらない言葉は月に飛んで消えた
錯付いた自転車帰り遘押しないから 
苦手だったバラードも今なら好きになれそう
思い出した言葉は時に野茨のように
いつも僕の心を弄んで
今日も君を誤解して全部わかってつもりになって
ホントは自分のことすらわかってなくて
明日君にごめんぬって 今度は君に誤解されて
行き場のない心は夢に揺れて容けた
明日君と 際れ違って気付くほどに近づいてて
だけどその分 傷は深さを増すわけで
突然君とぶつかって 痛いくらいに伝わって
それでもまた明日きっと擦れ違うんだ

いつか君と分かり合って 言葉は全部要らなくなって
そんな時間がきっと来るわけもなくて
いつも結局すれ違って 全部聞かず早とちりして
僕らそうしてずっと進んでいくんだ

 

 

Darn...

Unfortunately, I'm still up, due to that stupid sound test giving me nightmares. So, I'll ramble a bit here.

#1: All my stories will be posted on here sooner or later, I'm just a lazy bum. ^_^' But, if you really want to read them, you can visit Patchwork Study on Figment.com.

#2: Due to my insomnia, I'm trying to woo myself to sleep through Hitsuji no Oyasumi × Hetalia. May the Lord bless you, Hetalia.

#3: I might be a little short on posts next week, because I'm heading to Texas to visit family. I'll be very busy so I hope I'll even have time to update stuff.

#4: Despite how much I love summer, in all honesty, I can't WAIT for September. Why? Sonic, of course! Sonic Boom will premiere on TV the first weekend of September (or so I've heard), and I hope I'll grab a chance to watch it. Plus, in Archie comics, Sonic the Werehog will make his comic debut! (IT'S ABOUT TIME, ARCHIE.) And I don't even care how they're characterizing people, I wanna see how this turns out. *sparkles* DOU DEMO II DESU YO~

All right, I'm done. Later, gators.

Random doodle before bed, guys!

Darn Junichi. Quit giving me the image of Sonic being a fantastic singer.
AND THEN I FIND OUT THAT KULULU AND WEREHOG-SAN ARE GOOD SINGERS TOO WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN...
 
 

Art Post of the Day #8

Today's art is the song artwork I made for the dubstep track "DTMer ni Shinchoku dou desu ka? Kiku to SHINU" (How Does a DTMer Progress? Listen and DIE) by Ocelot/Ginsuke.
I originally had a different version of this song artwork, since in my mind it felt like a sequel to "KUSOGE-". This was the original version:
However, I was bored one day and decided to redo it to make it look more like a video game gone horribly wrong (as I wanted KUSOGE- to look like a video game breaking down). The result was what I call the "Horror Version":
I added a blue screen of death, too.
So, yeah! Enjoy the creepiness!

Art Post of the Day #7

Today's art post is for the latest Music of the Week, "Izure Ayame Kakitsubata". This one took FOREVER but I'm glad it came out well.
(OK, mostly I was trying to shake off the fear from seeing a rather creepy Sonic CD sound test thingie but whatever I liked making this.)

Art Post of the Day #6

Today's art post is for Vocastep song "TOKOSHIE", translated to English as "ETERNITY". There was a first version I made of this artwork, but I like the Redux version much better. Plus, Sonic's sword is freaking awesome.
I put some trivia in there, BTW. The symbols on Sonic's sleeves are actually a symbol for "air", referencing his "wind" techniques. ^_^

Enjoy!

Music Post of the Week #2

For this week, the featured music is by one of my favorite Vocaloid producers--Millstones! Earlier today he uploaded an entirely new song after more than a month of inactivity, "Izure Ayame ka Kakitsubata". It's freakin' gorgeous.

Have a nice day! The Daily Art Post will be up later!

Art Post of the Day #4

Today's art is my latest version of the song "ALICE HUMAN SACRIFICE".

I LOVE this piece, I'm very proud of it, but DEAR LORD does it take a lot of work. I have draw it out, then edit it (which means darken the colors, brighten the eyes, put in a border, add in all the blood and then put the caption) which leaves me a little tired after making it.
It's worth it, though. Haha XD

Enjoy!

Happy Anniversary, Fern!

Today is my original character Fern Midori's anniversary/birthday!

Fern was the first character I had ever created, all the way in 2010, but she was scrapped along with an old series I had planned to make. But, when 2012 came along, I revived her to be my first original character.
So, here is her birthday pic! *claps* From left to right are her 2014 design, her 2012 design and her original 2010.

Art Post of the Day #3

Today's art is Colors, a pic that shows each respectable character of mine in their signature color. This was the first time I did completely colored work and design. Lineless, no? XD

So, the characters in the picture are as follows (left to right):

Milkshake Milky is Red
Blackberry Utsubyou is Blue
Himawari Hanabira is Yellow
Fern Midori is Green
Bubblegum Sweet is Pink
and Ryn is Purple

^_^ Enjoy!
