Nocturnal Opera translations

[angels of night]

flower record, huh? I see why you wanted Gensou to go there for you lol! Btw, is it a store you would recommend going to?

 

[flowersofnight]

Well, they have a really good selection but it's a dump that's full of cigarette smoke, according to Gensou.

There's their selection of visual music. (I got another Malice Mizer demo and a demo by oxbxjxe)

PS: they claimed to have the "Flowers of Night" omnibus too but alas, it was not to be.

Yes.....it was......one hell of an experience *cough (from smoke)*

I saw some really good stuff some ppl here would beg for, but I wasnt gonna buy anythin for myself cuz I ran out of money.

flowers: MAKE THAT DAMN SHIRT!

 

[Dix Princesse]

Let me know next time you go and I'll send you money to buy something for me! : x

If you look at the sign carefully, you'll see that the shop caries "Fok" music. (look at the katakana)

Sure, Im gonna wear a t-shirt flowers might make for me when I go next time.

The Prophet has to have some of the best lyrics Mana's ever done. Woo for Mana.

Whatever else may be wrong with that store, I think the katakana are right... "fooku" = "folk" music

Kazuo: I actually didn't like the Prophet's lyrics so much, once it got past the opening Biblical-style English which was really good.

I knew it meant that.........

The Prophets lyrics are fine. When I read Manas lyrics, they just dont flow. That's a big musical NO-NO. Its like Im reading quotes. And it sounds like "Wawa no....." instead or "Ware....."

When I read Manas lyrics, they just dont flow. Its like Im reading quotes.

Exactly! Though some of his new lyrics aren't like that. Maybe Mana's been taking some lyric lessons on the side. Or Shadow X is ghostwriting them XD

Thaaaank youu flowers!! ^o^

 

[nocturnal_hime]

Oh wow!!! Thanks so much!! I really think Mana's lyrics have gotten a lot better than Dix Infernal. When I read the lyrics for Vestige, I instantly got the feeling this song was for Kami. It's such a sad song...
I really really love this album!! I just wish it wasn't so short. But I guess that's why Pageant's coming out so soon! Yay!

 

[angels of night]

I also got the impression that Vestige was the song for Kami, but I wonder if it actually is.

 

[flowersofnight]

I don't think so... Vestige was about a foreseen death.

 

[Geisha]

I think Monophobia is the song that is dedicated to Kami. It is about meeting the ghost of a dead person (I think) and actually has the line 'this song is dedicated to you' in it. Also, I think the voice whipering 'the only way to get away from loneliness is to love it' at the end of the song may be Mana's.

 

[LejuN]

Ah yeah, I said it in last forum. It seems overly obvious that it is monophobia. I could be wrong of course, but come on o-o;

+LejuN+

 

[carna]

I totally agree you. Mana's whispers are really full of emotions...
Anyway, thanks Flowers... you did a great job

 

[angels of night]

Yeah, it does seem that Monophobia is for Kami. Monophobia and Perish are becoming my favorite songs.

 

[ange_de_lumiere]

Isn't there a Mana-with-Mana theme in some of the lyrics?

Flowers, I am eternally grateful for your translations. Mana's lyrics are so poetic and meaningful, filled with symbolism. At first I thought the person Mana was referring to in Monophobia was his mirror feminine self actually, matching the Mana-with-Mana theme. Especially when it said "both of us go on stage." But this song as a Kami tribute makes perfect sense, much better sense. With the "return to the sky" thing and the "The unfinished stage is still shining" part at the end. Now I feel silly for my first impression

 

[rizumu]

question: anyone know wtf shadow x, or mana, or whoever on "invite to immortality" says? it sounds like "welcome ??? ???? night".

 

[Akito]

There was a discussion about that in the old forum. I think some one is saying: "Welcome to the schow in black? night"

or something along those lines.


Anyway, does anyone know what they are chanting in Mad Ingrain? It sounds li ke they are chanting "Mana Mana"?
