This is so soft and the visuals are so pretty I love it so much! Though I am curious about this unreleased original you mention? Was there a particular reason it never got shown, or is there a chance it may be released after all?
Just finished reading a light novel named “Hello, Hello and Hello” I soon after opened Spotify hit the shuffle button and this was the song that first played What a coincidence I’m now crying more then I was just before~
this rendition speaks to my pain... I've always loved these versions of songs I loved over the years from you, but this one is so personal I have to ask, will there be a version of this that's just music? I need more of this... I can't stop listening... I'll likely keep listening if you will or won't either way so no need to stress, last thing I want to do is stress you or worse ^-^" but it never hurts to ask right? it's just those first few notes at the start feel like my heartbeat... I always feel my heart ache at those first few notes... I only know of 1 other song in the world that's done that to me so much I cry whenever I hear it... but this one... this one is a comforting familiar ache that echos on inside not drawing tears, but releasing bottled unaddressed pain I can't get out anyway else... I couldn't be more grateful to you for sharing this... wish there was a stronger way to say thank you but I'll settle with I appreciate you and your work, keep being you doing what you do and just- thank you... so much...
About the song - Closer" by Joe Inoue is a song that emphasizes the importance of appreciating the small and simple things in life that often go unnoticed. In the first verse, the singer poses the question of what recent happiness the listener has experienced and suggests that sometimes we may take our blessings for granted. The pre-chorus reflects an awakening to the miracle of simply being alive and present in the moment. The chorus repeats the idea of taking heed of the things around us because they can be easily lost the closer we get to them, emphasizing the need to not take them for granted. Verse 2 acknowledges the differences in beliefs and opinions among people and how our views can vary on certain issues. The bridge reflects the idea that even if an act of kindness or assistance is deemed insincere or hypocritical by some, it can still be beneficial and impactful to others. The second chorus highlights the importance of continuing to pursue dreams and never giving up despite the challenges and difficulties that may arise. meaning "a handful of courage," reflects the idea that even small gestures can lead to great outcomes. Overall, "Closer" reminds us to remain humble, grateful, and to appreciate the value of little things in life, as these things can ultimately contribute to our happiness and sense of fulfillment. This song i discover this year and listening to it over and over again you should also have a listen to it 🎧
I feel the same as in this video many times, I've been feeling like this for years, but at that time I barely understood myself, much less to others. I met you years ago Jayne, and at that time I had no interest in you, I was romantically and sickly dependent in love with Haruhi Suzumiya, in an idealized way and far from reality to the purpose of sustaining my fragile psyche, your songs for me were messages of Haruhi for me, to help me, give me support and allow me to endure. This made you somehow a simple peon or instrument of a 'divinity' and I did not want . I know perfectly that you are not Haruhi, even if I play with that idea once: 3, you are you, I am, however, if I felt bad awareness of doing what I did, that's why I send you money for the Patreon for years, Simply to cover the bad conscience, until you decided to stop doing it that way and try a different one, so I began to get away from you, because the new songs ... neither were what I was looking for, and I did not want to feel so bad Being unfair with you and thinking bad things about the people because "nobody understands me" and all that fragile and injured egos tend to assume, but without taking care of anyone else, logically. I sincerely hope that you have found a greater and better balance and mental and emotional stability, and by physical extension too, but I also hope that it is not at the expense of giving up your dreams, the beautiful and beautiful things that you also say in this song and by the It is better to be alive, suffer and fight, but taking care of ourselves too. I have much more self -esteem, I do not have that sick dependence on the others before, but of course I do not want to be alone or feel alone, I want to be with people who understand me and accept me as I am, and that is nothing Easy, nobody wants to load with pain or "dark side" of others. But I do not comprise myself with less than that, and so it will always be while it vita, I would ask you the same, of course you can have false friendships to hang out and entertain you, but we both know that they are not really friends and we do not want to settle for that. I finish for now.
When I first saw this. I was not expecting to be dark…. Technically I did because of the art before I watch it but not like horror movie (the good king) dark.
Hey Jayn ^^ I’ve been listening to your songs since I was very little and this is one I’ve been listening for ever since it came out I’ve recently came out of an abusive relationship that was extremely hard for me to leave. And I wanted to make an animatic with this song about it, I will give proper credit when I do so! Your songs are amazing 🫶💚
