For those wondering in 2023 and in the future: This song was made by the vocaloid composer Ryo Mizoguchi (溝口遼 Mizoguchi Ryou) aka *siinamota* , who died at the age of 20. His cause of death was never revealed but seeing as this was his final song (amongst final tweets) it's heavily speculated it was suicide, hence the condolences from everyone in the comments. Regardless, he was a heavily influential and talented musician, beloved by all. This was his final song. Rest in Peace, siinamota.
it really sucks because a lot of people have stolen his song "Young Girl A" on tiktok and never credited siinamota, and now i see on the music video for it that people just think its a meme song
His last song was “Please give me a red pen.” The song was uploaded the day of his death. Along with a twitter post from him stating that he hated having to grow up.
This was in fact not his last song. This song released a few months before his death. His actual last song was 赤ペンおねがいします, which he uploaded just hours before his death, clearly with the intent of it being his final song given the content. Healthy End was then uploaded a few months later by frequent collaborator and friend of siinamota, Yuma Saito, who made the Music Video for it. Not trying to put you on blast or anything--siinamota is a niche artist from a niche music scene--but he's an artist I respect a whole lot and want to see the actual facts about.
Even he said goodbye everyone, he doesn't want us to be sad when he leave, so instead, he made a happy song for us to continue to listen to his songs. RIP, Siinamota. Thank you for making a wonderful music for everyone.
This isn't a happy song, it's frantic. I think he was about at the end of his rope and ready to commit suicide here, but he couldn't quite go through with it.
thank you for giving me the courage to grow up and become an adult. thank you for teaching me to smile, even when saying goodbye. goodbye siinamota, until next year. I'll always listen to your music, no matter how many more years pass.
Australian here, not sure how well this will translate. I feel the same way, although I know I'm lucky, I'm directionless and everything feels meaningless. By the end of the year, I'll have concluded my youth. I hope I can find my place before then, but I'll have to keep going regardless!
R.i.p. siinamota , no matter what anyone else thinks you'll always be one of my favorites and you sure as hell won't be forgotten. I may have discovered your music a bit too late which I regret heavily. May you rest in peace.
despite the cheery tempo, this song has such a good way of conveying sadness. and it’s a certain variation of sadness i think everyone can understand. it’s that “i’ve tried so hard but oh well, i give up” kind of headspace.
I genuinely cannot listen to this song because of how depressed it makes me. It sucks because I love this song so much, it’s just so amazing. But when I listen to it I can’t help but cry. Even when I’m just thinking of this song I want to die. I love this song so much as it was the first song that has ever genuinely made me breakdown Into tears. I am crying while typing this. Siinamota, may you Rest In Peace. This world is too cruel.
@@noctisakazawa I thank you for taking your time to share your feelings with me. It makes me so happy that I can have someone relate to me so much. Thank you for your comment. Please keep going and never give up ❤️
@@areif9294 I’m doing so much better. It’s funny to look at this comment I made 7 months ago when my life was breaking apart little by little and seeing how much I’ve grown and changed in this short amount of time. How are you my friend?
Holy shit, it actually took me 2 years to find back this song. I forgot it's title, what it's about. I only remember a bit of how the chorus sounds like. I want to listen to it back because i remembered it had a happy tune. Now that I'm here... Wow... It's actually a sad song...
This song remined me of the time when I was struggling so hard with depression that I thought "ah, even though I am in so much in pain, I can die and it will end". I felt so relieved and yet so sad at the same time.
You know, even though this song is very melancholic and I see plenty of people calling this a sad song, I still refuse to see it as that. Maybe I'm just being stubborn and stupidly optimistic, but I still see this song as a happy one. A beautifully bittersweet, but ultimately hopeful song. I still believe that when Siinamota wrote this song, it wasn't a goodbye to everything and everyone, but to the past, to his childhood, and that he was still looking forward to the future, to adulthood. Rest in Peace Siinamota. You may be gone, but you will never be forgotten.
私が最初に椎名もたさんの音楽を見つけた時は、18歳まで生きることが想像もできなかった。今月で20歳になります。椎名もたの歌を聞き続けて頑張って生きます!! when i first found siinamota's music, i didn't imagine myself living past 18. i'm turning 20 this month. i'll continue listening to his music and doing my best to live !! RIP 椎名もた, thank you for your music.
Its so sad.... the fact you can hear him softly singing the lyrics over the girl's voice is heartbreaking. Rest in peace, the man we all loved and still do. Siinamoto. 🕊⚰
For who ever who listened to this song u just wanna say, hang in there, its too early to give up on life, and when it gets too hard, just keep hanging in there. I assure you, someone will one day here ur scream for help. And some day you will be saved from this cruel world, so just hang in there and think about those who also want yoh tk hang in there, its too soon, SO DON'T GIVE UP YET
This song is so powerful. It never ceases to take my breath away. I listen to it in my darkest times and it certainly helps. It's such a bittersweet song with really beautiful and meaningful lyrics. Although I discovered this song as well as the rest of his music quite late, I still love his music. I hope powapowa is happy knowing his music has reached people and inspired them including myself. Thank you so much, Siinamota-san. May you rest well where ever you are.❤
It's been 9 years and the truth is that your songs are a success and I like them a lot. I hope you are happy with the decision you made and greetings wherever you are.
The beginning and most of the song were so cheerful, but I was reminded of how some people who were suicidal acted uncharacteristically happy, like they were getting better on the day they decided to do it. It's like there's nothing that can hold them back anymore, so they feel extremely free. The ending notes at 4:14 describe the moment they did it: as they jumped off the building and the world turned upside down, the music (thoughts) in their head raced too as they realized it's their last moments... This song is just incredibly tragic. Rest in peace Shiinamota. Your feelings will be remembered for generations.
I recently learned of Siinamota, but I listened to his songs growing up without knowing. This is one of them, I'm glad to have found out of this really skilled musician! May he rest in peace
All these songs thanking Powapowa P is making me cry out of happyness. i wish i had met a person as wonderful as powapowa p i would have given him all the strength i could give to live on.
I hate that such a talented person is gone to us. But I love all the sincerity and love everyone has in these comments. I hope he rests well knowing that he can bring so many hearts and minds together. Even in passing.
