Vtubers are strange. It's like we exist but don't really exist at all. So we do our best to give ourselves some kind of tangible existence on the other side of the screen... or something like that.
It's a good song. Please watch the original - I don't think I can convey the emotions that suisei's put her whole existence into.

✻ Lyrics ✻ (Feel free to use, pls credit me!)
Bursting into my mind
my emotions creep
Going though the days
By every impulse that I heed
In the light of a town
Still so simple then
I told you you were the one
But I was just lying
I refuse to see, or even to believe
While dancing in place
I think of all the ways
That I can convey these feelings to you
Can you see me now where I am?
Hey can you, can you hear my voice from here where I stand?
Dancer in the dark
Though it isn’t easy to find
My silhouette is right there
Distorted but I couldn’t care at all
Though my throat will go sore
I’ll once more
Cling onto this with all my might
Till I find the answer, never letting go
Just like a ghost
Blinding brightness, the light
That I’ve come to hate
Though my shadow grows
with every single passing day
So unlike you I tried
to ignore the way
your words had thoughtlessly passed
And almost made me break
Overflowing now, I see it all around
All these dearest of days
Still finding every way
That I can convey these feelings to you
Can you see me now where I stand?
Hey when you, when you hear my voice do you understand?
Dancer in the dark
Though it isn’t easy to find
My silhouette is right there
Distorted but I couldn’t care
at all
Though I’ll keep on fighting
and crying
and racing towards a day that’s shining
Hey, look this way
Could you tell me what
The answer is?
It’s strange but,
It feels like my heart is about to explode
Don’t tease me!
Dyed in grey today, see them point and laugh at me
Why me? It’s getting hard to even try to be...
But god knows
I’m trying
I’m fighting
and crying
And racing fowards
towards a day that’s shining
So that it’ll never change
So that i’ll keep on this way
Until I’m out of things to convey
Can you find me now where I am?
Hey can you, can you hear my voice from here where I stand?
Dancer in the dark
Though it isn’t easy to find
My silhouette is right there
Distorted but I couldn’t care at all
Though my throat will go sore
I’ll once more, cling onto this with all my might
Till I find the answer, never letting go
Just like a ghost

[@FarhanAlharits]

As a hoshiyomi, i like this And now i know the meaning of the lyrics, so emotional

[@jinxgigaming8448]

YES

[@dan_lazaro]

I've always had an inkling because I learned a very basic conversational Japanese from watching anime. (no cap lol) But hearing it like this, it really helped make the message clear. Also I watched the story of Suisei, where she fought for her character and successfully kept it. I think this song is very representative of her mental state.

[@VanillaYT.]

@@dan_lazaro oh well in that case nihongo oshietekudasai

[@dan_lazaro]

@@Miku-eu8mp I'm pretty sure a hoshiyomi is the fan name for Hoshimachi Suisei's fanbase, I'm not sure though because I skipped that era and went onto the Gachikoi phase, which comes from Gachi-serious and koi-love basically it means seriously in love and that's like a stan but I refuse to be called a stan lol I got traumatized by kpop stans enough that I refuse to be associated with such name.

I dunno man i don't think I'm at a level in the language where it's worth teaching l.

Hi Rachie I know this isn’t related to the video but I just wanted to say something. I realized that I’ve been a fan of yours for about 5 years now and your covers have always been super comforting to listen too. But your My R cover has an extra special place in my heart since listening to your cover of that song is one of the things that got me through a very tough time in my life. I know you’ll probably never see this but I just wanted to say thank you. Because your videos were one of the things I looked forward to the most when I was struggling. I’m doing alit better now if anyone was wondering. ☺️ Thanks for another amazing cover and I’ll definitely be listening to this on repeat.

[@eastdalecrt]

same. R is my comfort song due to that period of my life.

[@i3uster7]

Imma go check out her My R Cover, Thanks.

[@booperdooper9762]

I agree. That song is quite the staple and she helps so many people in this community. ❤

[@waterworks_yes]

My R was indeed my comfort song for a while and, although I haven’t listened to it for months, I still love it ^^

[@Dominik-K]

I've been there when My R got released and yeah it really had that effect for me too. Helped through more painful memories than I can even fully recount by now.

[@illusiveeclipse9430]

Was I about to go to sleep? Yes. Should I go to sleep? Absolutely. Does that mean I’m going to do so? Who do you take me for, a responsible human being.

[@hyphen8d725]

The reasonable decision is watching the cover, you made the right choice.

Thank you for translating Suisei's "message". It's what she want to tell,I think

[@SenseofNoneYT]

She did say that it's a message. Towards all people not just her fans, iirc. About her being a VTuber/Virtual Idol and her struggles. Some people aren't really impressed by the whole VTubing thing. You can only see her avatar and it might mean it doesn't have much weight or meaning to some. All those lyrical lines like the "Dancer in the Dark," or silhouette or even the title, Ghost. Stuff like that. And I remember Suisei saying this song is her saying something along the lines of "Yeah, well... I'm right freakin' here. For better or worse. Whether you like it or not." And considering what she had to do to get where she is, she has all the right to tell those people. She worked her ass off for this. This is just what I remember Suisei has said and how I interpreted the song considering all that.

[@aiuhwuh]

“GREAT JOB, MAYBE YOU’LL ACTUALLY BREAK A SWEAT NEXT TIME EH?!”

[@jandlyt]

"Amazing, mission complete! That right there, is why you're the best boss!"

[@user-ed7fp9td5r]

I was no fan of any song covers in a different language for that I believed there can't be a perfect translation in both the rhymes and the emotions told from the lyrics. This cover however does say all the feelings in the original version while keeping the verses rhyme flawlessly with the original lyrics. The first two lines in the hook have the equivalent length to the JP version. And the punchline in the JP version I think is the second last line, which is perfectly presented by 'never letting go' which rhymes, and the meaning is moved to the next line, 'Just like a ghost'. Your voice catches me, and your lyrics touch me. and then you got me subscribed lol

[@PanaCottaR]

I get you , rachie is really good when it comes to choosing the right choice of words for her English translation. Her Black Rock Shooter op's lyrics are still catchy for me even to this day.

[@user-ed7fp9td5r]

[@familiar1618]

I am completely new to your channel, and I was really impressed that someone was really willing to do an English cover of our one and only beloved Comet's new song, GHOST. I really admit you did a great job in covering her song! I'm glad it turned out really well and honestly, this is a really amazing cover. Hoping that you'll find a lot more success just like Sui-chan. I hope that if she does see this cover of yours it would make both you and her happy.

Oh my god even misaki is here, now its legit

[@aqua9094]

As a fellow hoshiyomi, I aprob Thank you for doing this amazing cover!

[@tic-tacproductions6926]

The thing I really like about rachie's covers is not only the singing but how she translates the lyrics while keeping the same rhythm and meaning of the song which I really respect

[@CarlosC697]

I didn't expect a Suisei song sung by rachie, but its a welcome surprise. #patreonsquad

[@user-ln1qi1cc2d]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 I was so impressed to hear your English cover of one of my favorite idol Vtuber's original song! Now, I’m desperate to hold back my tears... (´；ω；`)uuu... (from a nameless JP bro)

[@simplydave9649]

Out of nowhere! Though as someone who has already heard this from Suisei's voice herself, this is just as good.

[@ApatiteGaming]

This has to be one of my favorite covers ever. Absolutely no emotion was lost during the translation of the original, and your vocals are a perfect match for the song. They carry all the appropriate emphasis that artists so often lose when making a cover. I'm really excited to see the rest of your work.

[@akuma4219]

Gosh queen you killed it (and my HEART). You always deliver! You really covered this song beautifully

[@NMarkk]

This cover is amazing... Haven't listened to a English cover of a song in another language for awhile, but this one is just amazing. It gives me the same feeling that I had with the original the first time I listened to it.
