"The Song That is Everywhere", Ninomiya Kazunari
trans. Kaiten Soshi

I can’t see the difference between right and wrong*
You said, “Everything’s alright!”
Those words are making me disappear
and that’s what I’m the most afraid of.

Shout it with all your might,**
“I’m here!” as proof.
We’re not that weak. But we’re not that strong either.
So it’s alright if we cry.
There’s nothing to be embarrassed about.
It’s something that only people with a future can do.
It’s a sign to move on.

I cry, wish, fall down, cry again.
You grew up, afraid of getting hurt.
You’ve always been holding back your tears and
Stopped being able to smile.

When I realized it, I was alone and afraid.
It was that time that your voice that reached out to me,
so gentle that it hurt, and I cried.***
“You’re such a crybaby,” you told me.
It found easy for me to say, “You too,” and we/I laughed.
Don’t say that it’s “nostalgic”, the way we joke around.
I want to grab the present that is here and now.

Look!  Breathe in and out, we’re alive.
Taking it step by step, that’s all we need to do.
It’ll be okay. We’ll be here, always.
Just let it all out**** and stand proud.
Because that’s us.
Always and forever.




General note: As with most of Nino’s songs, I’m not sure if he’s speaking or if he’s speaking on behalf of someone…

*It literally says “What’s right? What’s wrong?”
** Literally means “Shout it with all my life/energy”
*** I need to rephrase this better.
****Some lyrics point that it’s ’さらけだして” which is basically “lay it all bare”. I heard it as “叫だして”, “shout it all out”. 

Original Lyrics

「どこにでもある唄」    二宮和也

「なにか 正解で
なにか 間違いで
だから 大丈夫、なんて」
言いちゃて。
そのことばが自分を
消してくから それが一番怖いことだから

命一杯叫べ
ここにいるよって証しのように
僕はそんな弱くわない でも強くもないから
だから泣いて いいんだ
恥ずかしいことじゃないや
明日がある*人しかできないことだから
明日の合図だから**

泣いて 求めて
転んで また泣いて
キミはそうして
大人になって
傷付くことをそれで
ずっと泣くの 我慢してたら笑えなくなってた

気づいたら ひとりになって
怖かったその時差し出してくれた
あなたの声が光***ほど優しくて

泣いていたしたら
アンタが泣き虫だって言うから
アンタもだよなんて言てみたら
楽になってた 笑ってた

いつもみたいに
ふざけたこと言い当て
懐かし なんで言わないで今を
そこにある 今を握りしめて

ほら 息を
吸って 吐いて
生きている 一歩 一歩
歩いている ただそれだけでいい

大丈夫 僕らは ずっとここにいるよ
だから すべて 叫出してみて
さあ 胸を張って言えばいいんだ
それが僕らだ

ずっと ずっと ずっと

***痛み?光?

Hey guys!

Oh my god!


I got in!


To the Top 23!

I've got to do a video now to convince YOU and THEM why I should be The World's Coolest Intern!

If you don't really know what I'm talking about, check out my blog post or follow me on twitter at kaitensoshi!
spiderpig: (Default)
For any of you who might have stumbled upon this blog after searching for information about Waseda and/or the SILS programme, I'll be updating this blog with my adventures in Japan :) I'm from Singapore and will be taking part in the one year exchange that Waseda has, from September 2009 - August 2010.

However, this blog is still rather personal so most of my posts will go onto my weblog In Your Basment.

I'm trying to trim my fringe so that it looks like the short-ish crop I had in Japan but it's not working out very well. Looks like I'll have to pay the hair-dresser a visit. Speaking about going into town, I need to pick up my Ooku books.

I haven't given up yet, because Yen gave me a timely prod, so here is day 2 of the meme.

day 2 – where you’d like to be in 10 years.

If my math doesn't fail me, I'd be 31 going on 32 in 10 years time. It's a doubly scary thing for me, because another ten years would have passed me by and I'd be thirty. I can get away with being below 18 sometimes, when gregarious insurance agents approach me in the subway stations and ask me if I am old enough to talk to them and I can scoot away and say "no I'm still in JC." When I'm 30, I'm quite confident that I won't look like this anymore. Hopefully I'll be thinner, none of that paunch that comes from drinking and midnight snacking and in a better place.

I haven't decided. Do I want to be in Tokyo or New York? I know one large part of my postgrad plans are going to be centered around either place, but I still haven't decided. Or both. It'd be great if I could be like Naho and Yuri and shuttle between both places. Going through Yuri's mobile updates about her month in New York (on business, no less) and visiting her alma mater makes me feel that I should travel and experience the Big Apple, from the inside out. I'd like to be in a city -- with quick access to the country-side. Loud sounds and quiet people.

I miss Tokyo more than anything else. How the streets outside my dorm always had someone walking past, with their dog, by themselves on the way to the public bath-house, or bringing their laundry to the laundromat. I like watching the huge industrial washing machines and dryers whir into the night.

I'd like to be somewhere I can practice my art in. I'm caught right now, in between writing and photography, and while I want to pursue both wholeheartedly, I'm going to have to make a choice sooner or later. In ten years, hopefully I've found the answer -- and it might be the right one.
spiderpig: (Default)
Because I've neglected this journal for far too long, and I would like to practice writing -- that is, writing anything at all, because I've been abnormally tightlipped lately -- so Yen and I are going to do these 30 day memes!

I'm probably going to modify some of the questions because clearly this isn't a tumblr and I don't have time to tumblr around with tumblr questions.

meme questions )

Here is the first question.

day 1 – your current relationship, if single discuss how single life is.

直島
Yayoi Kusama's Pumpkin, at the Benesse House beach.

Back in February, or was it March, I made a 10 day trip around Japan's middle kingdom. One of the stops, was Naoshima of Kagoshima Prefecture, famed for being an art-island.

直島

直島
One of the houses in the Art House project. I've packed away my Naoshima books (I bought so many!) so I can't refer to them to find the specific names. I know there's the internet, but somehow I'd like to flip through the catalogs and read up more information that way.

直島
Another Art House project; this time James Turrell's (who also has an installation in the Chichu Art Museum) Darkside of the Moon. One of my favourite installations. I have a soft spot for art pieces involving shadows and darkness, as cliche as that sounds.

直島

直島

It was a cloudy day when I went, and for short periods of time, the rain decided to have sporadic bursts around the island, and it was a bit of an ordeal trudging about in the winter wind. But there was something very calming about the island, and the weather. It was full of people, but not crowded and never once did I feel that there were too many people in one place. Walking about the island and discovering places not on the map, visiting the Art Houses, tip-toeing through the two main museums, I felt that I could live here and that I'd love to live here. One day I'm going to come back (next year?) and spend a night or two. What's the island like at night? How would the outdoor installations feel in the darkening sky?

Sadly my film photos of the island are all gone! They got mixed up with my Miyajima photos so no lovely shots of the teabowl (I had to climb the pedestal -- shhhh! -- to get the shot I wanted!) or other secret photos!

The full set of photos is here.
