Anata ni Naritakatta [Album]
Nippon TV Sukkiri May 2021 theme song
Lyrics: Ken Hirai
Composition & Arrangement: Hidefumi Kenmochi
With green tears1, let me dance
Even on empty nights, let me dance
Blame it on someone else and let me dance
Because I won't have to sleep
Kelali kelali2, I smiled without caring if it hurt
Smoothly, smoothly, replicas pretending to be strong sing
Let me dance to the rhythm of the world beyond and the rhythm of this world
Let me dance to the rhythm of the world beyond and the rhythm of this world
Someone's sound is echoing all over the place
and lie-like rumors create truth
1995
If it's gonna change anyway, let me dance
With shoes I've never seen before, let me dance
Let me cry with a new rhythm
Because they get bored quickly
Quickly, quickly, the girl sings that dreams are something you make come true3
gently, gently, while bathing in a wind of resignation
Let me dance to the rhythm of the world beyond and the rhythm of this world
Let me dance to the rhythm of the world beyond and the rhythm of this world
I head out into the town and sneeze with a lalala4
and lie-like synthesizers urge for the end
* The song references the year 1995, which Hirai Ken says is a year he felt strongly about life and death. This is possibly due to the great earthquake that happened in Kobe and the Tokyo subway sarin attack, both of which occurred in 1995.
* [1] Green is commonly used as an expression in Greek as a symbol of life
* [2] While ケラリケラリ isn't a word, it's thought that it may represent someone putting on a smile for show.
* [3] A reference to lyrics found in Amuro Namie's "Chase the Chance"
* [4] A reference to Ohguro Maki's "La La La". In Japan, it's said that when someone sneezes, it means they are being talked about somewhere

Midoriiro no namida odorasete kure yo
Nanimo nai yoru demo odorasete kure yo
Dareka no sei ni shite odorasete kure yo
Nemurazu ni sumu kara
Kerari kerari itamu koto mo okamainashi de waratta
Sarari sarari tsuyoi furi no repurikatachi ga utau yo
Ano yo no rizumu to kono yo no rizumu de odorasete yo
Ano yo no rizumu to kono yo no rizumu de odorasete yo
Sokorajuu de dareka no oto ga nari
Uso mitai na uwasa ga makoto wo tsukuru
1995
Izure kawaru no nara odorasete kure yo
Mita koto mo nai kutsu de odorasete kure yo
Atarashii rizumu de nakasete okure yo
Sugu ni akichau kara
Hayaku hayaku yume nante kanaeru mono da to ano ko ga
Harari harari akirame no kaze wo abinagara utau yo
Ano yo no rizumu to kono yo no rizumu de odorasete yo
Ano yo no rizumu to kono yo no rizumu de odorasete yo
Machi ni dereba rarara to kushami shite
Uso mitai na shinse ga owari wo sekasu
