Death Note Musical English NY Demo: Borrowed Time w/ lyrics

[@raccabracca]

It’s noticeable she doesn’t have a single song with Light. It shows how one sided and deluded her love for him is, poor girl.

[@raccabracca]

While she *does* have a number with the one person who loves and appreciates her.

[@fukkthisnewupdate8882]

@@raccabracca she does have a short piece in stalemate though? I guess they aren't singing *together*, after all

[@shadezeverim3654]

She has a line or two in Stalemate.

[@jelaabasova8383]

@@fukkthisnewupdate8882 She does, but it's more like intruding into Light and L's duet. They are fully occupied with each other and don't pay attention to her. Just like in the actual story.

[@fukkthisnewupdate8882]

@@jelaabasova8383 that's a pretty good point. It's also entirely about how light can use her

[@raccabracca]

This has to be the best incarnation of Misa. She’s not just a manic pixie groupie - you can understand why Rem and Gelus fell for her.

[@ranthalling]

100%! This song makes me cry & I normally don’t like Misa at all - but THIS MUSICAL!!

[@shadezeverim3654]

"I'd rather die than let you make me betray him." DAMN GIRL that's loyalty there too bad his sentiments aren't shared.

[@winnieew870]

I love the lyrics " every day that I don't die is borrowed time " like it's referencing the shinigami ( Gelus if I remember correctly ?? ) who fell in love with her and died which gave his life span over to her. Since how she's not dying is borrowed time, since she borrowed his time and ahhh!! I love it so much!!

[@LyricNear]

Winnie ew I know right!!! So clever. Gelus is the real victim here, he deserved better.

[@Moonlight-hc2hx]

I think this song will be like what I would do

[@commandixnostalgia2321]

In my opinion,Gelus has resurrected inside Misa, I know he gave his remaining lifespan to her but it makes more sense if you think about it. Years later and Gelus' death still gets me..

[@LyricNear]

Borrowed time - borrowed from GELUS who did NOT deserve to die.

[@yunamchill9169]

@Flurryofstxrs And Rem, a shinigami queen who started out not understanding love, but who died as a mortal and fool, is the bestest girl ever.

[@raccabracca]

It’s significant Rem kills Watari as well, when she only needed to kill L. Yes, she wants to save her beloved, but it’s difficult to interpret this as anything other than revenge on the two men who tortured her girl.

[@commandixnostalgia2321]

Exactly! Watari did anything L asked him to do in order to make Misa talk. One of the reasons why Rem killed him.

[@feiwnakausvkaxbdkebkswowbq8331]

Watari isn’t in the musical idiots.

[@galaxyboy1431]

@@feiwnakausvkaxbdkebkswowbq8331 how is that relevant

[@angelaphsiao]

Misa is an absolute badass in this song and it’s really too bad it’s in service to a serial killing cult leader

[@couragew6260]

Which sadly just makes it more believable 😢

[@Jiffles]

To be entirely fair, Light didn't have a part in making Kira popular, everyone just joined in, AND Misa was the one who sought out Light in the first place (And in this musical said that she was his to use). So Misa dug this hole herself for the most part.

[@asyrdal4059]

...am I going crazy, or is this song the exact (or almost exact) INVERSE of Hurricane? Seriously. I need to play these two at the same time because I think everything is the inverse. Like the tune, the notes, etc.

[@panixwanix4571]

Your not crazy. It is

[@shy8311]

To be honest, I dont hear it. I saw alot of people saying it sounds the same but I dont think it sounds that similar. I dont really like Hurricane as a song but Borrowed Time is one of my favourites.

[@azurabun0]

​@@shy8311 both choruses sound extremely similar, maybe if you played them back to back you'd hear it

[@shy8311]

@@azurabun0 I dont know I just dont think its the same. But maybe I am just not able to hear it, who knows XD

[@JohnFKennedy490]

It uses a lot of the same chord progressions. Which seems to be a pattern in this musical

[@calmcloudlesssky3443]

I'm sympathizing hard with Misa, and, unlike in the Japanese version of Mortals and Fools, it's entirely intentional. Well freaking done.

[@LyricNear]

Calm Cloudless Sky She's a hard character for me to sympathize with, but I get it. She's much stronger in this than the anime.

[@fabulousmyriad267]

This is the powerhouse song of the entire musical topping even Hurricane.

[@elmerdaserdmannchen2604]

Clare Gundersen So is the musical actually gonna happen?

[@elmerdaserdmannchen2604]

Clare Gundersen What sources would these be? :D

Clare Gundersen I really, really hope there will be a full (and available) recording.

[@sabinadudova3935]

this song actually makes me love Misa, what the hell?

[@LyricNear]

I'm glad I took so many screenshots the first two times I watched it, I would be lost for backgrounds otherwise!

[@Fabyskan]

Aspie Near Was there a Stream or something? I want to see it but well... I guess I can stop think about it in europe @.@

[@LyricNear]

Fabyskan No, there were two full Japanese subtitled versions of it on KZbin back in October, but they were taken down.

[@Fabyskan]

Aspie Near omg 0.0 I missed them :(

[@_Gore]

I don't remember the website name, but there is a place you can download both versions of the Japanese musical and their subtitles. I'll link it if I can find it for you.

[@alexisgrandis609]

_.Gore, please link them!!

[@EthanKirsch.]

Imagine if there was another song after this, an L and Light duet or L solo which was basically just the Rain scene but in a different place. Someone should write that.

[@sleepypieck5698]

IDC misa deserved better💁‍♀️ her parents got murdered and the murderer got to walk free until kira got him, it makes sense why she idolized and "loves" light, and if light never got the death note she would've almost gotten killed but the shinigami jelus saved her and she gets the death note, and probably would have tried it out and tried to be like kira but probably would've instantly gotten caught or done something different and failed, and in the end of the anime she kills herself because light dies, if light had beat near she would've been left clueless since light now had mikami and misa lost her memories, she would've just been lights puppet for him to use or light wouldn't need her anymore and just leave her or something, she just gets no happy ending when she really deserved one😕

Misa's (borrowed) life story

[@kandymation]

.... I'm legit about to cryYY. I already commented before but bRO YOU ARE A HERO .. I CANNOT EVEN BELIEVE- i have been searching for the korean version of this song because it's abSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL and one of my favorites! And so after letting it go for awhile I decided to try again today- not only did i find the korean version but an ENGLISH VERSION AS WELL THAT I NEVER KNEW EXISTED!!!!?!?!?!?!!! YOU BEAUTIFUL HUMAN BEING YOU. THANK YOU FOR THIS AGAIN I M- WOW JUST THANK YOU.

[@hanasan4845]

It's hard for me to imagine Misa with such a low-pitched voice (I only read the manga so idk what voice she had in the anime), but the song is really strong, and honestly I low-key feel like it give more characterization to Misa than at least half of the original manga

[@psai3]

*I'd rather die than let you make me betray him*

[@mstree9173]

Wow wait to make Misa seem like she's NOT a character just for fanservice

[@gatherer818]

I know, right? This song specifically is making me want to watch DN again, even though I couldn't stand Misa most of the time...

[@fukkthisnewupdate8882]

Check out The Abridged version from CharlestonVo. It's been canceled, but Misa is actually smart in that one

[@yumiko_slayz]

i can relate to this song a fair bit, because only as a 12 year old, i feel as if im living purely for other people and people are preventing my death by hospitalization and therapy and constant protection and watching over me when in reality i feel like im supposed to be dead by now and people are just giving me time from their own lives to feed into my lives, but clearly the time that i have is “borrowed” because it’s not my own, it’s from other people trying to prevent something that’s unpreventable. sorry for venting

[@sleepypieck5698]

nah misa a real one, they tie me up like that and sorry light im not doing this for u🤣🤣❗

Does this song have the same beat as hurricane? Try playing them at the same time

[@lobster493]

It does

[@user-onionbae]

Honestly I would like to say this song doesn’t represent miss completely for me it’s missing that she does have pride and doesn’t just always give into light it’s just she loves him so much that it’s worth enough to make her easy to manipulate. It’s not that it’s all for him cause devotion it’s cause love and manipulation at it’s finest
