It keeps coming back to me
I remember this pain
It spreads across my eyes
Everything is dull
Everyone's smiling, they're smiling
It pushes me far far away
I can't understand
Everything is blue
Can you hear me out there?
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
I'm gazing from the distance and
I feel everything pass through me
I can't be alone right now
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
I'm lost in a deep winter sleep
I can't seem to find my way out alone
Can you wake me
I know when I let it in
It hides love from this moment
So I guard it close
I watch the moves it makes
But it gets me, but it gets me
I wish I could understand how I
Could make it disappear, make it disappear
Anyone out there hear me now?
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
Kiss my lips
and maybe you can take me to your world for now
I can't be alone right now
Will you hold me now Hold me now My frozen heart
Please make it all go away
Am I ever gonna feel myself again?
I hope I will

As promised, here's Olivia's Winter Sleep (this song suits Nobu & Hachiko) and an MV specially made to remember the blossoming but unfortunate love between Hachiko and Nobu. In NANA, Hachiko is constantly plagued by love matters, her first boyfriend cheated on her and Hachiko caught them redhanded. Her second boyfriend, was a celebrity from Trapnest, Takumi. Initially everybody hated Takumi bcos he was known to be a womanizer and takes advantage of women's weaknesses. In fact, Nana blamed herself for introducing Takumi to Hachiko in the further episodes, her initial plan was to let Hachiko meet her idol, Takumi, after Nana and Ren got back together. But when Takumi started using Hachiko for his own pleasures and treated her hot and cold, Hachiko had already fallen in love with him (probably the reason why men use love to get sex, and women use sex to get love). It was really heartbreaking to see Hachiko trying to convince herself to love Takumi, even when she knew he wasn't a good guy.
Her third boyfriend, Nobu from Black Stones, was a guitarist who was Nana's comrade and they often hanged out together. Nobu loved her deeply and selflessly and she loved Nobu back alot, after realising Takumi wasn't the one whom she should love. By this time, everybody was really happy for Hachiko as we all thought she found true love. However, the happy times shared between them was shortlasting, when Hachiko realised she was pregnant and she didn't know who the father was. (that's why it's unsafe to condone pre-martial sex, hold onto ur virginities for God's sake) Things started to take a dramatic change after that, watch NANA to find out the ending for urself.
I feel a lot for the characters in NANA and somehow there were certain periods or characters whom I can relate to. I like the way the main characters analyse their own feelings and situations and the everso melodramtic progression of the plot. Gaining insight into the reflection of how people feel is liken to gaining trust from the other party, as they begin to show you their own weaknesses and problems. This is probably the reason why NANA is such a HUGE success. Think I should go and read the manga!!
HECK! I'm unable to upload Olivia's Winter Sleep due to some problems. BUT BUT BUT here's Anna Tsuchiya's Stand By Me!!
Anna Tsuchiya ROCKS too. Her voice is really unique (rapsy and raw) and brings out the mood of the song with such emotion, sadness and pain. Anna is really talented and I have nothing but praises for her, especially her rock balladries. If you heard of Kuroi Namida (Black Tears), that will be the best rock balladry that Anna Tsuchiya has ever sang. It's superb and draws you in with her anguish declarations of "I cry black tears! I have nothing!"
A brief check on her biography reveals that Anna Tsuchiya (土屋アンナ, Tsuchiya Anna, born March 11, 1984 in Tokyo, Japan) is a Japanese singer, songwriter, model, and actress. She was born to a Russian-American father and Japanese mother.
My god, she's just 1 year older than me, and she is already an accomplished rock queen in Japan. Wah. The disparity of success between her and me is atonishing. But such a comparison is uncalled for. haha. Jodan dayo~
Can't find any lyrics or translation for Stand By Me on the net. Dying to know what the song means (jap still not that good to fully grasp the entirety of the song). Meanwhile, enjoy the song while i try to upload winter slp!!!
This is one of the ending singles for the josei anime, NANA. The piano and guitar acoustics accompanied by the soft vocals creates a soothing, beautiful song. The lyrics speak for themselves, and I'm sure many can relate to them.
NANA is the BEST josei anime ever. I enjoyed every single moment of NANA, as the story unravels about the friendship between the 2 NANAs (one nana is full of childlike innocence, while the other nana is a self-confident punk vocalist) and their love lives and the top notch music used in the anime. This is one of the animes that I will give a huge THUMBS up for and recommend very strongly to those who love music (J alternate/rock) and enjoy animes that revolve around the theme of friendship and love. I remember there was a period when I actually had to stand by tissue papers while watching NANA when Hachiko's life was in a turmoil because of Nobu & Takumi. 47 episodes of laughter, joy, sorrow and tears shed while watching NANA was really worth it.
The songs of Olivia Lufkin and Anna Tsuchiya are used for the two rock stars within the anime. I personally prefer Anna Tsuchiya's voice as her voice is really unique but Olivia's songs are also quite nice. The songs from NANA best are constantly on repeat mode on my ipod. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to provide the download link for NANA best, so try to probe around the internet for bitorrent links. It's really fantastic! Watch NANA and listen to NANA best!!
