MISIA - 逢いたくていま - New Zealand Vocal Coach Analysis & Reaction 

よくぞ、この音源を見つけてくれましたね。彼女はJapanが誇る歌姫です。

I'm Taiwanese and I agree with it that just listening to the music can enjoy the emotion too.But when you realize what they are singing,it will be more sympathy.That's why I study to the japanese because I want to understand what the meaning of the songs.Japanese is so full of rhythm,and it's pronunciation is so beautiful.I remember that it's the one of four most beautiful languages.It's structure is so suitable for singing.

凄いでしょ！私は日本人男性ですが、こんな小柄な女性がこんなにパワフルで繊細なのを表現できるのが感動です。😳

Hi! I’m Japanese and love this song so much. The reason of that is the story behind she wrote. One day she went to the memorial hall of Tokkotai(i.e. air suicide attack units in WW2). She was devastated by seeing a lot of things including the soldiers’ last will, and spent whole day there. In the lyrics, she says “If I had known that I couldn’t have seen you anymore, I would’ve never let you go. If I had said ‘Please stay here’ as I’d wanted, would you be here and smiling next to me now?”. Thinking back how did the soldiers’ mothers suppressed their sorrows and sent their sons to a battlefield, I can’t help crying. Please understand I’m not offended by the U.S. I just felt so sad for those victims of both Japan and U.S. in the war back then. (Sadly the same thing is happening in Ukraine/Russia right now) Hope this story behind the song can be known more.

逢いたくていま I miss you, now 初めて出会った日のこと　覚えてますか Do you remember the day when we first met? 過ぎ行く日の思い出を　忘れずにいて Don’t forget the memories of the days passing by あなたが見つめた　全てを　感じていたくて I just wanted to feel everything you looked at. 空を見上げた I looked up the sky 今はそこで　私を　見守っているの? 教えて… Are you watching me from there now? Tell me… 今　逢いたい　あなたに I want to see you right now 伝えたい事が　たくさんある I have so much to tell you ねえ　逢いたい　逢いたい My love I want to see you, I want to see you 気づけば　面影　探して　悲しくて I found myself looking for your shadow, then I grieve どこにいるの? Where are you? 抱きしめてよ Give me a hug, please. …   私は　ここにいるよ　ずっと I'll be right here. always. もう二度と逢えないことを　知っていたなら If I knew I'd never see you again, 繋いだ手を　いつまでも　離さずにいた I held on to your hand, and I never let go. 『ここにいて』 と "stay here", if I said, .. そう素直に　泣いていたなら if I was crying so honestly, 今も　あなたは　変わらぬまま　私の隣りで　笑っているかな I wonder if you are still smiling next to me, unchanged. 今　逢いたい　あなたに I want to see you right now 聞いて欲しいこと　いっぱいある I have a lot and want you to hear. ねえ　逢いたい　逢いたい My love I want to see you, I want to see you 涙があふれて tears welled up in my eyes 時は　いたずらに過ぎた the time passed in vain   ねえ　逢いたい　抱きしめてよ My love I want to see you, give me a hug, please. … あなたを　想っている　ずっと I've been thinking about you, always, .. 運命が変えられなくても　伝えたいことがある Even if we can't change our destiny, but I have something to ask you 『戻りたい…』 あの日 あの時に I want to go back... ｔhat day, that time 叶うのなら　何もいらない I don't need anything if it comes true 今　逢いたい　あなたに I want to see you right now 知って欲しいこと　いっぱいある I have so much and want you to know ねえ　逢いたい　逢いたい My love I want to see you, I want to see you どうしようもなくて helplessly hoping 全て夢と願った I wished it was all a dream この心は　まだ泣いてる This soul is still crying あなたを　想っている　ずっと I've been thinking about you, .. Forever, ...

I am Japanese and I understand the lyrics of the song. I cry thinking of my deceased husband when I listen to this song.

Wow! What a wonderful singer. Great control and emotive conveyance! She is so soulful. Thanks for showcasing Misia!

泣けてきます、何回聞いても。

From Japan, nice to meet you. She sang the national anthem at the opening ceremony of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics ！ She is a true Japanese diva. Please share your reaction to Higher Love by The First Take 🌱

Misia expressed the desperate anguish and longing for a loved one that is lost to you. She was inspired to write this song after having visited a war museum where she read some letters between Kamikaze pilots and their loved ones. The song is from the point of view of the wife/girlfriend whose partner has left them behind to be a kamikaze pilot. She knows he's lost to her and will never see him again, but she is yearning desperately to see him RIGHT NOW, to be held again, to tell them things. She tells of how she would never have let go of his hands when they held hands if she had known it would be the last time, she asks if he would be by her side smiling today if she had cried and begged him not to go etc. She tell how she will forever be thinking of and waiting for him. It's a desperately sad love song. This song was also played a lot after the Great Eastern Earthquake of '11 where so many people lost friends and family.

I Want to See You, now (Misia, Japan 　逢いたくて今　AITAKUTE-IMA) Do you remember the day we first met? I haven’t forgotten a single day that’s passed I want to feel everything you had your eyes on I looked up at the sky, are you there now watching over me? Tell me… I’m missing you now There’s so much I want to tell you Oh, I miss you, I miss you I sadly long for your presence Where are you? Hold me I’ll always be here If I knew that we’d never see each other again I would never have let go of your hand If I had just cried and told you, “Stay with me” Would you still be here, smiling beside me? I’m missing you now There’s so much I want you to hear Oh, I miss you, I miss you Tears flow as time just passes me by Oh, I miss you, hold me close I’ll always be thinking of you Even if my destiny won’t change, I have something to tell you “I want to go back…” to that day, that time, this one wish is all I need I’m missing you now There’s so much I want you to know Oh, I miss you, I miss you All I could do was wish it was all a dream This heart of mine is still crying I’ll always be thinking of you

請多多評論MISIA，謝謝讓我認識MISIA~

皆さん、メロディー、歌だけではなく、ぜひ歌詞の内容も調べてください。 きっと涙が溢れてくるでしょう。Everyone, please look up not only the melody and the song, but also the lyrics. It will bring tears to your eyes.

Good on you, Zoe, for justifying my very uneducated ear ( as a boring management consultant helping to re-organise an Insurance company) in 2001. I am Australian and was in Tokyo walking with a student researcher who worked for me. Going past a HMV record shop( remember them) this voice was on their loudspeakers. I was ARRESTED! The student extorted 3000 yen and returned with "Misia's Greatest Hits", now on a pile of CDs and DVDs two feet high (and attendance at a few concerts) since. The girl, depending on reports, has sold 30 - 45 million records, is praised by David Foster and had been a Japanese Special Ambassador to the United Nations. A fan of the female voice, ( e.g., Donna Summer, Gladys Night,, etc.)Misia is astonishing to me. As you say, no matter what language, her voice is a pealing bell of purity, command and just extraordinary emotion. She csn deliver this peerless instrument with total power over a two hour concert, let me assure you. Also, a serious person with NO gossip about her life and it full of good work and humanity. When chosen to sing the anthem at the Olympics, this crowned her unique and totally deserved place as a singer and Japanese treasure. And your video is from a Chinese singing contest in which she came third ( with totally neutral Chinese judges, no doubt). Good on you for the assessment.

At the beginning of the song, there is the lyrics "I looked up at the sky. Are you watching over me there now?" In other words, are you looking at yourself in heaven after your lover, your dear friend, or your family has died? It can be interpreted as such. "I want to meet the dead. I want to feel everything that the dead felt when they were alive." This is a sad but very beautiful song.

この歌はMISIAが 第二次世界大戦での特攻隊を想いえがいて作った曲です。とても深い意味を持った曲です。日本人なら誰しもが涙する曲なんです。

「SING」という映画を観ましたか？ 彼女は日本語版の象のキャラクターを演じています。 話す声はとても繊細なのに歌のパワフルさは度肝を抜かれます。

Finally, I believe Misha found her legitimate appreciating reactor from the professional's point of view. Love it.

きっと気に入ってくれたんだよね😊 MISIAのFirst take 「Higher Love」も是非聴いてみて！ From Japan😘

Song name; I want to see you now (Lyrics) Do you remember the day When we first met? Don’t forget the memories Of the days passing by I looked up the sky Because I wanted to feel everything you saw there Are you watching me from there now? Tell me… I want to see you right now I have so much to tell you My love I want to see you I want to see you now I notice I keep looking for your shadow Then I grieve Where are you? I want you to hold me I am here forever Even if we can’t change our fate I have messages I want to tell you “I want to go back” To that day, to that moment I want nothing else if my wish comes true I want to see you right now There is so much I want you to know My love I want to see you I want to see you I don’t know what to do I wish everything was a dream My heart is still crying I am thinking of you Forever

MISIAさんは日本のgospel Singerです

Thank you for reacting to Misia and it was really nice to see. I would like to also see you reacting her song called Ashitae from The First Take which she wrote to cheer up the Tohoku hit by Tsunami 11 years ago. She sings in the way to mourn the loss and change the way to sing to connect to hope for revival.

Your reaction, her song rating is amazing.😍 She is said to be the top singer in Japan.🤘 Thank you😘

泣きたくなったらこの曲を聴いてます

Im so happy to know MISIA. She is a one of greatest singer in Japan ! Thank you.

素晴らしいリアクション動画です。ありがとうございます♥️

my favorite artist!! thanks

The lyrics of this song are also very nice💞. The way he sings is heartfelt, and he expresses the lyrics carefully. I hope you understand the lyrics as well. He is one of the top singers representing Japan.🙂 This is the theme song for the drama "JIN" which was a big hit in Asia. ``The fate of a doctor who travels back in time to the Edo period and the woman of the Edo period'' A story that transcends time and space.

She is a Japanese diva, making a major debut back in 1998. She participated in the Chinese show (just you reacted to) & sang a couple of other songs in the show (a kind of TV competition program), too. :D

Besides, Koji Tamaki, a Japanese singer, and a male singer are amazing.

Nice and best reaction 🥰❣️

She put herself into the song, so emotional. MISIA (mee-shah) is a JAPANESE singer, and this was CHINESE TV sho, and all the audiences are CHINESE. They didn't know what this song was all about either, just like you. However as you could see in the video, many audiences were moved, some people were in tears. This is the power of song, and how MISIA expresses the song. Thanks for bringing up her video. Thanks for the good explation. P.S. This is a song about a lost boyfriend. A woman who still loves, misses her boyfriend who she never be able to see again.

i love your analysis! her perfomance in the first take series is awsome too especially "higher love"

I enjoyed your professional analysis of the vocal very much in Japan. thank you.

Hello zoe!!! I totally agree with you about enjoying the music even though it is from other languages....the singer Misia is too top....I believe that the melody and the singing of the person already conveys all the feeling and quality of the musical content....I am Japanese descent and in this case I understand all the content, but I also appreciate some songs from other languages ​​that I don't understand, enjoying only the melody and the voice... I believe that music has no borders... .Zoe congratulations on your work and it's for few....success for you!!!😉😉😉🙏🙏🙏

Loved and totally appreciate your comments that seemed to have done the justice to Misha’s artistry. Thanks so lot.

歌詞に合った声や歌い方や雰囲気や深い所をえぐってくるのがMISYA

I just happend to stop at your channel while browing people reacting to Japanese songs. I have enjoyed watching you explain in a professional manner how the singer does her job. I also enjoyed watching your facial expressions to say nothing of hearing your commentary.

Thank you for analyzing this song! MISIA's song "EVERYTHING" turned me on to Japanese music back in the early aughts. I think the pronunciation is "MEE-sha". My family played music growing up, and the thing that always stood out about her voice is her insane control and ability to naturally make long notes begin powerful, and slowly grow. Reminiscent of Whitney Houston I think, and I mean that comparison honestly because MISIA's voice is truly amazing.

I found this video of yours thanks to the Japanese title.

この歌はとても悲しい歌です。 日本人は、この歌を聴くと涙を流します。 グーグルの翻訳は非常に悪いので、あなたが褒めているのか貶しているのかわかりません。 表情からすると褒めてくれていると思いますが。

I LOVE ~

Wow, this was a really interesting explanation of the vocals! And it was also really touching how much you were able to get into the song. I don’t personally listen to a lot of MISIA but I know this song. May I suggest you put the original Japanese title in the title of your video as well? That way, more Japanese people will have the chance to see the video! (The title is 逢いたくていま) what you currently have on your video looks like Chinese, I think because she’s singing on a Chinese program in this video? Just a suggestion though! I look forward to more videos.

Finally! A coach reaction to Misia!!! Loved your reaction and educational comments!! BTW MISIA is pronounced MEESHA .

I recommend Can't Take My Eyes Off You by MISIA, a nostalgic yet new interpretation of the famous song with a big band like in the 50s and 60s. 【纯享版】现场完整版：米希亚《Can't Take My Eyes Off You》浪漫开唱 樱花舞台美呆《歌手·当打之年》Singer2020 SinglesVersion【芒果TV音乐频道HD】 - RU-vid

MISIA THE FIRST TAKE / HIGHER LOVE

The Chiran Peace Museum in Kagoshima Prefecture displays relics and materials related to the kamikaze members of the end of World War II. A special attack was a desperate attack that rammed an enemy ship, including an airplane equipped with a bomb, and that sortie meant death. MISIA, who read the letter that the members wrote to their loved ones before the sortie, felt that "there is no letter that expresses the desire to meet any more" and "the core of the song has been decided."She says.

I like her voice because it is very worm and dynamic. Her another song “Higher Love”is also fantastic song.

I'm grateful you like Misia song. This song about she strongly miss boyfriend and always thinking about him. Misia started R&B her child age hope you listen another her song there's so many good song. I enjoyed your channel 🙂 Yuji from Auckland

If they have enough feeling in their voice you can pick up the feeling it's just like Drumming or guitar they're not in any language but you can still understand it

You're not watching the video alone in the room ... ❓ The act of stopping many times It's extremely unpleasant in itself ... From the side of watching the reaction video ... A laughing face ... A surprised face ... I just want to see a crying face ... ❓ Please give us your impressions after the video ends.
