Anime Jazz Cover | Galaxy Express (from Galaxy Express 999) by Platina Jazz

[@iDuwnKno]

i'd remember my mother and other family members watching galaxy express 999 on the tv, it was one of my first anime as a child as i was probably only 1 or 2, i would be snuggling next to my mother whilst watching the anime as she'd read out the subtitles on the screen (i couldn't even understand a thing haha) I had started to re-watch the anime in my free time, the anime itself and the legend, Leiji Matsumoto will have a special place in my heart.

[@mrwilliamjoel]

Coming back to this after a long time. RIP the legend, Leiji Matsumoto. Hope he heard this.

そうだね、出来ればテレビで扱って欲しいけど。

[@MsieurScratch]

Platina Jazz and Galaxy Express are always a winning combo ! One of your greatest works.

Lyrics: There's a train, that travels through the night, To the world, to the sea of light. And the shards of our dreams Fill up an endless universe. We must go cross the bridges, That will take us to the stars. All the people of this world Look for wonder and for joy Like crusaders at the edge of their souls. 'Til they find a wishing star, the adventure will go on, An eternal journey stride after stride. Keep waiting for the day You will find it come what may, Paradise - Your blue little bird. See the train, across the galaxy, To the world, to the end it goes. It will stop on the way There's a station set on every star. Travel far on the railway, It is made up from your dreams. In the lonely hero's gaze In the eyes of pioneers See their life is set to go up in flames. Like the never-ending song, playing deep inside their hearts, An eternal journey stride after stride. And waiting for you still Is the blue and little bird, Just beyond - The crying stars. All the people of this world Look for wonder and for joy Like crusaders at the edge of their souls. 'Til they find a wishing star, the adventure will go on, The eternal journey stride after stride. Keep waiting for the day You will find it come what may, Paradise - Your blue little bird.

Thanks a lot for your great job, for the auto-generated subtitles miss some lines. I'll put the lyrics into Japanese for Japanese listeners later...

[@SVSky]

Great translation adaptation of the original lyrics

[@やや-e6u]

すいません、日本での放送アニメでは、この歌詞ではない、海外放送になると歌詞を勝手に変える事あります。日本では→ 汽車は闇をぬけて光の海へ、夢が散らばる無限の宇宙さ、星の架け橋 渡って行こう、人は誰でも 幸せ探す 旅人のようなもの、希望の星に 巡り会うまで、歩き続けるだろう、 きっといつかは 、君も出会うさ、青い小鳥に。 汽車は銀河を越え 最果て目指す、 星は宇宙の 停車駅なんだ、 君を招くよ、夢の軌道が、 さすらい人の すんだ瞳に いのちが燃えるよ、心の歌を口ずさむよに、歩きつづけるだろう、泣いてるような 星の彼方に 青い小鳥が。 人は誰でも幸せ探す、旅人のようなもの、希望の星に巡り会うまで、歩きつづけるだろう、きっといつかは、君も出会うさ 青い小鳥に。

[@shoroto6034]

@@やや-e6u 失礼いたします。　昔の日本のアニメは確かに海外では特にオープニングの曲などはその国独自の全然違う曲になってしまっていたりします。　昔は正当な権利を得て輸出されていたかわからないという事情もありますから、勝手に加工されていますよね。　過去の事なので仕方ないと思います。　このJazz ver はメロディは同じで、歌詞だけ違う、というものなので、アニメとは別物で、曲をカバーしてアレンジしているだけなのではないでしょうか。　英語verのスリーナインの曲って、他にもありました。　歌詞もまた英語ですが、違う歌詞でした。　歌詞の中にスリーナインの文言も入ってないし、単にひとつの曲をカバーアレンジした、という感じですね。　できればちゃんと原曲は日本のアニメの曲ですというのを必ず付け加えて、出す分には、ユニークでいいかと思います。

[@campanerrigiovanni4885]

@@やや-e6u この英語版の歌詞は日本語版の原詞に忠実な素晴らしい訳で、原曲に対するリスペクトが感じられると思います。

[@LOTUS-ARTS001]

nice to know that big bands like these play covers of such an underrated anime

[@櫻城ユーイチ]

「人は誰でも幸せ探す旅人のようなもの」の歌詞がとても深くて 歳をとった今でも心に響きます。 外国語だとどのように翻訳されているのか、はたまたまるきり違う歌詞なのかはわかりませんが jazz調でしっとり聞き惚れるのもいいな、と思いました❤️

[@iseimor]

歌詞がコメントに載ってますがほぼ忠実ですよ。翻訳する人すごいですね。

[@Jouge_kamiShimo]

「人は誰でも幸せ探す･･･」って所と 「きっといつかは君も出会うさ･･･」の所が日本語で歌われてたら自分は泣いてたと思います。

[@Lymmmmmmmmm]

This band was the best treasure I've ever found on the Internet.

[@koh5915]

Thank you for singing Galaxy Express!! I am Japanese. This original song is one of my favorite song. And I like Juzz. So your song is wonderful arrangement. I felt emotion and your respect of original.

[@EvgeniyNeutralMusician]

You know, I quite never sing. But in 2012 and even year-2 later I was singing "Galaxy Express 999" composition nearly every day with manly tears. "Galaxy Express 999" is one of my favourite anime works, but even without that, this cover is absolutely phenomenal, brilliant. One of your greatest arrangements and covers for sure. Thank you, Rasmus and Platina Jazz, for making it. hats off to Leiji Matsumoto. What a Legacy.

[@nitram_m.b]

It never ceases to make me impress when Platina Jazz and Galaxy Express 999 mix together

Whenever Platina Jazz drops a track, the sun happens to break through the clouds at the same time.

I have a lot of Platina in my Work playlist (it gets played on my work's speakers) I love how a lot of his music is subtle with the anime themes

[@SVSky]

One of my fav songs to sing in Japanese, now I can do it in English too! Nice, added to one of my playlists

was courious about this. and wow. This is really really good! the Singer, and the band are such complimentary to eachother

[@wishone3829]

Ah, I wish this band could produce some vinyls

[@IgnatRemizov]

Check out Anime Jazz Standards... I'm sure some have been made !

[@MalleusSemperVictor]

I prefer FLAC because I'm not carrying around a vinyl player but I'm sure you hipsters will figure that one out.

[@maxharrop9560]

I'd bloody love that

[@KyuuTomoyaki]

Excellent cover by Platina Jazz as always! I just started watching this show after putting it off for years. I saw the first and second movies in English two decades ago on the SciFi channel late at night once and they instantly became my favorite anime movies of all time. I always say I love Galaxy Express 999 but since I've only ever seen the movies, I feel like I don't have the right to call it one of my favorite anime of all time until I actually sit down and watch all 113 episodes followed by those two movies I adored 20 years ago. Time to sit back and ride the Three-Nine into the stars above!

[@daydaydaydayday]

大丈夫ですよ、全部見なくても、1話だけでも、だって宗教など規制の無いのを見るには日本語のみのを見るしかないからね。あのアメリカもワンピースのアニメも一部規制してるから。全部見た事にならないので。
