In the distant sky, the clamor from a ring of spinning flowers awakens the diverging paths I passed through that day, on that day I followed a girl who showed me the way, an incarnation of the shimmering haze, (2) and high upon a hill appeared the nameless field I’d yearned for The shadow whispered, “That is the city I showed you in your dreams,” day after day, upon passing through the countless branching paths A wise man in the darkness gathered cast-off days, and along the coast, along the coast, made to dance a strange, unknown flame ※ Ah, the mantle loquaciously fans up the flame, and congratulates those standing in the abandoned field Ah, before the eyes of the silent, silent girl ah, the lights (3) begin to burn (4) in the unknown capital High in the sky, a pattern of clouds dyed red like a burning flame showed me the road I had lost that day, that day Pursuing the wind that oft blows in my dreams, I descended time, and along the riverside, along the riverside, beheld an unknown flower of joy ※ Repeat x2
for people like us the lead voice is more like the lead intrument of a post-modern orchester...a most versatile and perfectly tuned flesh pipe if you may
I have to thank Satoshi Kon for introducing me to this wonderful artist. The moment I've heard The Girl in Byakkoya at the ending theme song of Paprika, my soul just said, "I thirst."
This is probably my favorite song. It's relaxing and exciting at the same time. Each line hits perfect "By the river, by the river, I saw the flower of felicity" ❤️
If I could not sleep. I always try to play this to calm my mind and get rid all of my anxiety in a day. It really helps. Unique, soothing and magical. These are the adjectives I used to say everytime I play this song. Thank you so much for sharing your music with us.
there is soul in every song as humanity lives on! I hear the sounds of the old mixed with the present and future. So beautifully composed. A masterpiece!
amilyester Ha, I should have read more comments before commenting, because I just posted almost the exact same thing. =) Truly there's something magical about this song (and agreed that Tokyo Godfathers is a great movie, too).
