For Diana-chan!

Sherry's watching Madlax at 4:30 AM...

The insert song is sooo good. You must download. So I've put it up for you. :)

http://homepages.nyu.edu/~smc449/02%20Nowhere.mp3

It's 7.51 MB but download it anyway! It's good, I swear.

Sherry found Dear Boys Sound Selection! Sooo happy!!!

Ahh...Nowhere... it's such a good song. The vocals blend really well with the background...chanting? I'm not sure what to call it. The violin, gods, the violin! So beautiful! It's ethereal, it's fast, the beat is great. The English even blends well with it. It's wild, it's sad, it's anticipation. It sounds like something out of a hopeless quest movie, it's something out of a jungle. It's just a good song. It fits really well with the anime. God, I love this song. Can't get enough of it. Download it. I can't describe it all that well, but it's a great song so please download it.

Ah, Keiichi Anime Forever (http://anime.therisenrealm.com/) is a great site but too many people are downloading! I can't get my tracks... :( But the song is making me happy again. :)

So good! God, I wish I had translations for it... I really want to know what it's saying... Going to search, NOW!

edit x1: Ahh, sometimes I love Google. Soo good! Here are the lyrics!

Nowhere
FictionJunction Yuuka

Tell me the story of your soul.
Look at me without turning your eyes away.
You think that I am non-existent.

If you run to the unseen place,
and leave behind the unnecessary decorations,
even with an empty heart, the load is too heavy

Only the dream, that flies when blown,
links the two people.

Disobey the guidance of the all-showing star,
and run straight up
towards the door in the sky,
I will go anywhere.

The yellow loneliness of petals
If it can experience the hearts of two,
I think your loneliness will disappear from then on.

More important than the consolation desired now,
More important than the temporary laughter,
I think I want to see the inner you.

The gentle tomorrow that the all-showing star shown.
More importantly, to move towards the bright future.

Tell me the story of your soul.
Look at me without turning your eyes away.
The yellow loneliness of petals
will not turn around, so I wonder where will the two of us go.

Disobey the guidance of the all-showing star,
and run straight up
towards the door in the sky,
resist the gentle, smiling fate.
If there is courage in you to find me,
I will be everywhere.

*
The real you and the real me,
will definitely reach our meeting spot.
Disobey fate, scatter tears,
even so I want to meet you.
we will reach to nowhere land
take me to the nowhere land
*

Lyrics... soo good....The picture it paints... Wow. Sad, angsty, bittersweet, just like how I like things! I love this song!!! I love it even more now!!! (Now if only I can figure out where the asterisked stanza goes...)


And the romanji lyrics:

tamashii no hanashi wo kikasete yo
hitomi wo sorasazu mitsumete yo
anata wa watashi ga doko nimo inai to omotteru

mienai basho made hashiru nara
iranai kazari wa furisutete
kokoro wo mukidashi ni shitemo nimotsu wa omosugiru no

fukeba tobu yona yume dake ga
futari wo musunderu

subete wo miseru hoshi no michibiki ni somuite
massugu ni kakeagaru
sora ni aru tobira e
doko made mo watashi wa yuku no

hanabira no kiiroi sabishisa wo
futatsu no kokoro de nameaeba
anata wa kodoku ga koko kara kieru to omotteru

ima dake hoshii nagusame yori
kawaita hayari no warai yori
watashi wa anata no mannaka ga mitai to omotteru no

subete wo miseru hoshi no michibiku yasashii ashita
sore yori akarui mirai eto yuku kara

tamashii no hanashi wo kikasete yo
hitomi wo sorasazu mitsumete yo
hanabira no kiiroi sabishisa wo
furimukazu futari wa doko made yukou to omotteru no

subete wo miseru hoshi no michibiki ni somuite
massugu ni kakeagaru sora ni aru tobira e
yasashige ni hohoemu unmei ni somuite

*
hontou no anata yo hontou no watashi ga
deaeru basho made kitto ikeru hazu
unmei ni somuite namida wo chirashi te
sore demo aitai
we will reach to nowhere land
take me to the nowhere land
*


Okay, that's enough lyrics for now...

edit x2: *Sherry glassy eyed* I's found ID mp3 treasure trove! With soundfiles, the mp3s I have NEVER been able to get. Sooo happy right now... *laughs maniacally* But it's 5 AM... Damn. Tomorrow then. Or today really. Okay!

edit x3: Okay, figured it out. They go right around the time she sings: "subete wo miseru hoshi no michibiku yasashii ashita" and goes to the end of that stanza. It should sound like chaos and disorder but it works and it's so wonderfully blended... *sighs* The effect the overlapping lyrics have is just magnificent. I really love this song.

Okay, Diana, if you haven't gotten it by now that I really love this song, then you're an idiot. Download it! It's good! It's not a soft song though -- fast, definitely fast. It's like it dashes back and forth, afraid to be caught but at the same time very alluring. And I can't help but think of this as a painful song as well...

edit x4: Okay, last one, I swear. The OSTs of Madlax, the music of Madlax, so beautiful. The flutes, the pipes, the bells, the violins (god, so heartwrenching!), they mesh so well... And don't forget the piano. Sooo beautiful, even if they are with a twinge of sadness... Everything is covered in this layer of blue; you can't escape it. It's everywhere but the songs, they're still so good. These are instrumentals I wouldn't mind listening to. I usually don't like instrumentals at all, but these are beautiful. Everything is just utilized so well to make a nice whole. I'm happy. I'm content. It does make me a bit sad but it's a good sadness. I recommend both CDs.

edit x5: I lied. I have one more thing to say. This is in reference to Nowhere.

Wow.

Wow.

Powerful.

Wow.


I'm done now. ^_-
