&tunafished;

this post is solely dedicated to the song, ‘Devil‘, written entirely by Domoto Tsuyoshi.
i first heard it on a blog of a Yamapi fan and thought (along with many other readers of that blog) it was an incredibly haunting song.

it reminds me of hide’s ‘goodbye’ (the song can be found here; lyrics and translation here).

but i digress.
anyway, it’s from Domoto Tsuyoshi’s second album, [si:].
and apparently whenever he performs it live, he always looks like he’s going to cry.
i found a Chinese-subbed video of his live perfomance on YouTube.

i uploaded the song via 4shared (which is pretty fast).
and here’re the translated lyrics of the song:

Ai o shiteru
Ai o shitai
Ai o shiteru
Ai o shitai

I am loving
I want to love
I am loving
I want to love

Pyua o batsu suru debiru ga
futari niramitsuketa nara
mayowazu kitto boku wa
kou iu darou
kimi kara boku e boku kara kimi e
rabu nado tokku ni kieshisseta to…

If the devil that punishes purity
glares upon us
Without hesitating surely I
will say like this
From you to me, from me to you
Love and so on especially, we forgot to erase and …

Pyua o batsu suru debiru ga
futari niramitsuketa nara
mayowazu kitto boku wa
kou iu darou
heiki na soburi de engi de soburi de
yasashii sono te harau darou sa…

If the devil that punishes purity
glares upon us
Without hesitating surely I
will say like this
In a nonchalant manner, in a false manner
Gentle, those hands, brush them away…
