Jayhan Loves Design & Japan » The Brilliant Green

In my early age of Jpop chasing, I hardly listen to The Brilliant Green’s songs, maybe because they are in hiatus period. The only song I ever heard is Hello Another Way only. But recently when I watched J-drama “Tantei Gakuen Q” the credit part there… the familiar voice comes in. In such a short time I can’t remember who’s voice is this but I saw the running credit there written “The Brilliant Green - Stand by me”, I was so shock!

The Brilliant Green (or BuriGuri as short) has ended their hiatus by singing the Ending Theme for Tantei Gakuen Q, their 15th single but is the first since 2002, which released on the 22rd of August. I’m not a big fan of TBG but I want to say that this song is nice! I just love the voice of the lead singer Tomoko. Actually I listen to many Tomoko’s solo project: Tommy February⁶ and Heavenly⁶’s songs, and they were good.

According to thePPN, BuriGuri will release their best album somewhere near in the future, definitely will looking forward to it. Please read on to get to listen to the song as well as the lyrics and for the first time, translation from me! It is a very hard job for me because I’m not pro in Nihongo, and I use several online translation tools to get it done. It is not 100% accurately converting the lyrics but I think is almost there, hope you like it thanks! Yoroshiku!

The Brilliant Green - Stand By Me

Lyrics: Tomoko Kawase
Music: Shunsaku Okuda

nagai ichinichi ga owari

The Brilliant Green - Stand by Me

作詞: Tomoko Kawase
作曲: Shunsaku Okuda

長い一日が終わり
消えていく過去への扉
傷ついてもいいそれより
違う自分を見てみたい

can I try?”what should I?” 途切れた声
記憶の箱に眠る憶い
You’re always on my mind so….

Stand by me
錆び付いた世界に
何があるの？ Show me stars again いつか
でも見えない煌めきがあること
気づかせてくれたから
yeah

心を覗けたなら
今すぐに楽になるかな
誰のものにもならないで
勝手な願いだけれど

だけど　いつか壊してしまう
硝子の箱に
触れたらきっと戻れない So….

Stand by me
諦めと願いの扉の前
動けない　ずっと
叶うのなら　友達でいいから
特別になりたかった

誰かのために泣けるなんて
わからなかった
想うだけで　愛しくて
せつなくなるの
Stand by me
Stand by me yeah, baby

So stand by me
(So, stand by me, Oh )
yeah baby stand by me
(You’re always on my mind)
まだ見えない煌めきがあるなら
歩き出せる　きっと
見つけたいの　あなたとSo…
Stand by me

*Bonus Translation
A long day ends
and disappears towards the door to the past
From it may be hurt, but
I want to see myself to be different

Can I try? “What Should I?”
The voice has been interrupted
The thinking that sleeps inside the box of memory
You’re always on my mind so…

So stand by me
Into the rusting world What else left there?
Show me star again, Someday
The invisible glitter,
Because of you that make me aware
yeah

If by peeping people’s inner heart
that can make me happy instantly
A thing that is not belongs to anyone else
although it is just a selfish wish

but, someday it will destroys
By touching the box of glass
There is no turning back for sure So..

Stand by me
In front of the door of the resignation and the wish
Standing firm for a long time
Because it is good to come true with a friend
Becoming a special of myself

To be able to cry for someone
I still don’t understand
Only by memories, love and sad
stand by me
stand by me yeah, baby

So stand by me
(So stand by me Oh)
yeah baby, stand by me
(You’re always on my mind)
If the invisible glitter is still there,
By walking, certainly
I wish to find it with you So..
stand by me
