It’s such a shame that their drummer Kami passed away so young. He was exceptional in how he played. A bit like the modern gospel drummers do nowadays. If you ask me this was the best Malice Mizer era. Gackt was on top of it.
One thing i am grateful for, i grew up with their songs. Beautiful youth. Beautiful memories. Nothing closer to my heart than 90s-early 2000s Japanese indie music, and Malice Mizer was one of the most iconic scenes in that era
did not grow up with them myself (grew up with vocaloid as a young child) but as a someone in their mid teens now just recently discovering them I do have a feeling I’ll definitely be a fan of their music for a long time, and that it’ll definitely be a core memory

how did you discover/first hear them in 1999? :Oc i'm curious how someone would've found them back then internationally. unless you were in japan at the time
This is the first song I'm hearing by them and wow🥺🥺 it gives me a bunch of mixed emotions (but in a good way!!) It feels kinda...sad but also romantic? Maybe it's the violins :)
@@Luxurious_count_levi I did but I didn't really care for it :'( Illuminati and Beast of Blood are really good though!! They sound different ofc but I love them :D Especially Illuminati.
Where has song been all my life??? also.... 2:06 is it just me or does this part feel...maybe tragic? or nostalgic??? I dont know, but I can definately imagine fooly cooly to this.
English lyrics: The sound of our footsteps rang On the street lined with whithering, dead trees Always made me notice our increasing pace Small, fallen leaves pass by my shoulder and return to the sky Somehow this fiercely blowing wind is dear to me now You were softly smiling The familiar figure leaning on the window Obscured by the sunlight disappears Overflowing with feelings I muttered, “At least until I wake from this dream…” Even more I want to sleep holding you Even though sweet memories have changed I want to sleep holding you in my arms Like the time when we met Leaning on the window by the rustling trees I softly mutter those same words once more… Even if I can see the figure from that time At the most, it’s only in a dream… Even more I want to sleep holding you Even though sweet memories have changed I want to sleep holding you in my arms Just like that time, that day The two of us met… I want to sleep holding you I want to sleep holding you in my arms
ive heard about this 'mana' person for a good year now, and i just got into them, i have no clue whats being said, but for some reason it feels so close to home. im mad at myself i didnt find this band before, it makes me want to get up and change, for the better. heres to greater things, thank you so much for the motivation.
@@jeanne5922 Mana plays the guitar, Yu~ki plays the bass. His band is a gothic metal band called Moi Dix Mois, and the clothing line does ship internationally, just through another website.
How melancholic yet hopeful. I cannot get enough of this song no matter how many times I listen to it. It is quite amazing that a song made almost 30 years ago in a language I largely do not understand can elicit such strong emotions of longing to be with someone you truly love yet have lost. It really speaks to the transcendental nature of music as an art medium, as no matter the temporal, cultural, or spatial distance you are from a piece's origin, one can connect with it uninhibited.
The first time I heard this song I left some people in my life I didn’t need anymore. It sort of felt like fate to hear this song at the time. Since then malice mizer has been such a significant part of my life and this song will remain with such a huge part in my heart. 🥰
This song has me shitting and crying. It feels like a fleeting memory Im holding onto, knowing I have to let go but being afraid because if I do I'll break down. It feels like I'm being torn inside out. Like a bittersweet love story, or like loosing that special someone, and now they only live in your memories
I can't help but wonder why Gackt left this band. All I can say is he has an angelic yet addicting voice specially with this type of music/setting, I wish I found Malice mizer sooner 😭😭 now I'm too addicted to listening to their song
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME I FOUND OUT ABT THEM BC A FRIEND TOLD BE SOMETHING ABOUT THEM WHICH I CANT REMEMBER BUT NOW I CANT STOP LISTENING TO EVERYTHING I SEE OF THEIRS
