[01/24] 「 Bokura ga ikiru MY ASIA 」 Morning Musume Tanjo 10 Nen Kinentai

[reyfer]

Listen at the instruments, I hear japanese koto, chinese huqin erhu (chinese violin), and I'm sure there's some korean instrument in there, this is really keeping with the Asia theme stuff.

[cynee]

For those that can't use Sendspace, Bokura ga Ikiru MY ASIA radio preview

Thank you

[shirenuファクトリー]

Thanks for the preview

Well, the song sounds kinda boring, but I kept concentrating on listening to the voices. It was just so weird to be like Koharu... Nacchi ... Omg that's right, Koha and Nacchi in the same song! Wha!!! Seems to be Koha - Nacchi - Maki lead, which was to be expected... But Risa and Kaori sound good too, not that the preview is good quality or anything but still

[reine]

as far as ballad goes this one's pretty good much better than Aruiteru IMO, but damn Koharu's voice is damn grating

[Ayabie]

Can't say I'm much into it, but I'm only saying this after my second listen.

Needs more Kaori.

[RionZ]

I finally get the "MY ASIA" part, cuz of the asian kind of instruments (already spotted by reyfer) and melody and...blah, but quality isn't too good, so I can't hear it completely.  Its pretty good, I knew it wasn't gonna be a upbeat song , lol.  It sounds alright, but the PV and the full version better kick ass -_-

[cynee]

thanks reyfer!

i didn't expect it to be a ballad, i thought it will be a more 'alive' song to show the energetic spirit of Momusu. i wanted a more upbeat song, but guess we can see the hint that it's gonna be a ballad from the cover's dresses.

nonetheless, it is not sounding too bad, the 'asian' feel is definitely present in the melodies. i guess we are hearing/seeing more of Koharu, Nacchi and Maki in the perfs yah since the first part is dominated by them.

[reyfer]

wow reyfer you must have good ears if you can spot those from a radio rip

LOL

I happen to be a bit of a fan of traditional chinese and japanese musical instruments, and have a collection of traditional recordings. Plus I have one of the best audio software in the Open Source world (Audacity) so I can analyze the tracks and isolate sounds

lol, thats hardcore...how often do you take apart H!P tracks and analyze them?

[reyfer]

lol, thats hardcore...how often do you take apart H!P tracks and analyze them?

Not very often, but when I listened to this one I kind of heard those instruments, so to be sure I fired up Audacity and, well, apparently I was right

[Masabi]

I can hear them anyway.. -laugh-  Like I said in the download thread it has a "sakura mankai" feeling to it.

[faraithi]

I second that! But I'm not complaining, since it's more than a passable attempt at reviving Old-School MoMusu, which was Tsunku's intention, wasn't it?

[Kyobu]

Love it.

Lyrics thus far:

Romaji:
Kusumi Koharu . Abe Natsumi . Iida Kaori . Niigaki Risa . Goto Maki

onaji yo sora no hoshi wo mi ageta
haruka tooku ni omoi yo se
mata shiranu tomo ni ae sou na
[iida/niigaki] shirukuroodo susumou
tomo ni hakemashi
tomo ni nakaete
tomo ni kokoro wo kayouse
kazoku no you ni ikite yukeru sa
kizuna mou kitto deteru sa
mannen iukikau kono michi ni
subete no kibou ga tsumatteru
mannen dare ka ni tsutaete ku
fushiga na miwaku my asia
bokura ga ikiru my asia


Japanese:
久住小春 . 安倍なつみ . 飯田圭織 . 新垣里沙 . 後藤真希

同じ夜空の星を見上げた
遥か遠くに想い寄せ
まだ知らぬ友に会えそうな
[飯田/新垣]シルクロード進もう
共に励まし 共に称えて
共に心を通わせ
家族のように生きてゆけるさ
絆もきっと出来るさ
万年行き交うこの道に
全ての希望が詰まってる
万年誰かに伝えてく
不思議な魅惑　MY ASIA
僕らが生きるMY ASIA


Translation:
    Looking up at the same starry night
    Sending my thoughts to the far distance
    Like meeting friends that you never met
    Moving forward in the silk road

    Together encouraging and praising each other
    Together linking our hearts
    Living together like a family
    Surely a bond will form

    In this crossroad of ten thousand years
    Uniting our hopes together
    Convey it to someone for ten thousand years
    My Asia, a strange fascination
    My Asia, where we live...

[Kyobu]

Is that Koha who sings the first line?  She sounds so different

[LovelyMermaid]

Wow It sounds really beautiful, simmilar to sakura mankai

[Kira-sama]

^ yes def. something to look foward to, since i loved the sakura mankai!
