Hatsune Miku- "鵠(Cygnus)" English Subbed

[@owouwuowo1463]

I swear, Machi was every scene/emo vocaloid fan heartthrob of 2008-2011

[@machigeritanumberonefan]

HES STILL MY HEARTTHROB NOW!!!

[@ArhaHitomi888]

What I think is happening is Miku herself was actually murdered in her bed by her lover. The crowd of shadows are people around her body or the darkness of death closing in on her. The tongue crawling is worms in her mouth. The burning I think is either her being cremated or they tried to dispose of her body by burning it. I think she is haunting the person who murdered her, playing 'hide and seek' with them. She comes to them every night and comes a little closer each time. "This box where i'm trapped" is either a coffin or where her body is stuffed.

[@cherenkov8997]

I think thats a great theory! and adds to the creepy sense of it too, ty!

[@tortellini6087]

I know this is late, but to add to your theory apparently according to statistics approximately 99% of Japanese deceased were cremated in 2007, and it's been a common way to dispose of the dead for centuries.

[@kolibrispacestation]

Yes, but she still loves him. Listen to the last four sentences. She wants him to sleep like nothing happened. The whole song is a lullaby for the two of them. She wants him to have peace. She died on the lasts day of winter. Springtime never came but she illuminates it with vivid dreams of blue flowers and constellation like Cygnus, which, where I am from, is only visible in springtime.

[@theyeszenmama4352]

That’s a cool interpretation! It makes sense when you read the lyrics. Im still confused about the blue flowers that have mouths. I also don’t know why the song is called “Cygnus”. My older sis told me Cygnus is the scientific word for a baby swan or probably just a swan in general.

[@bunzel8178]

T.W CSA I hope machi knows how much this song meant to the tiny 13 year old who survived CSA. I wrote about the trauma i went thru on wattpad and used that creepy flower with a mouth as a cover picture. Almost 10 years later, what I wrote was used as evidence to convict 2 pdf files. Coming back here to say a big thank you for posting this. It got me thru hell and back.

[@miraclepainting]

That's absolutely amazing..

[@OMORI00143]

The imagery may be creepy, but the song itself is a BANGER.

[@ArminNBA]

The imagery kind of reminds me of a witch labyrinth from Madoka Magica

[@ChaosCrusaderIsBack]

[@watermellon452]

Idk why but, i know this is only Hatsune Miku but, it feels like a duet. I guess with herself. The way she goes back and forth from the left speaker to the right. And the harmonizing. Idk if that means something. ?_?

[@kolibrispacestation]

Watermellon 4 yes it does. It’s her live self and her dead self, talking. She is looking back at her life and regretting dying because she still loves the one who killed her, hence her trying to let him sleep and feel peaceful like it’s spring. She probably died on the last day of winter because to her springtime never came.

[@Alistair-The-Grox]

okay, this song is dark and catchy af with a pinch of uncanny. I love it

[@Alistair-The-Grox]

Yeah, I am pretty sure it is about miku getting cremated

[@allyenderman1502]

My interpretation: Miku is a sex slave, having been kidnapped and forced against her will to "serve" others. The people who choose her do so because she's beautiful, and can do whatever they please to her ("the tongue crawls"). The "red string" supposedly connects two destined lovers, but she doesn't seem to have one because of her "status," and therefore the string "breaks." She burns down where she's kept and escapes, but is caught, tortured, and killed as punishment for her disobediance.

[@000JAV_QwQ]

Bro wtf

[@allyenderman1502]

@@000JAV_QwQ I mean, you're replying to a decade-old interpretation of the translation of a Vocaloid horror song that's clearly full of a high amount of metaphor. I'm not sure there's much room for a "bro wtf" at me as much as there is at the person who made the song.

[@heartofgold6940]

I didn't see the appeal of this song during first few times listening to it but now I can call it melodic, tasteful and meaningfully poetic. Every part of it is my favorite. Love how the video helps make it even more uncanny

[@flowerkillerXXX]

i come back to this song after years and now i see undertale comments...

[@Lamzyyyyy]

This was the og weirdcore

[@theyeszenmama4352]

YESS

[@jessicasurrow]

Once i saw who made this i just stopped trying to figure it out.

[@fithrahkhairunnisa3313]

Why with machigaretaP?

[@supermouse73]

Because Machi is the producer with the songs that will fuck your mind up

[@Crzy...]

YES MY SISTER FOUND IT, THIS SONG WAS STUCK IN MY HEAD FOR DAYS AND I COULDN'T FIND IT 😭😭

FINALLY found this song again. Haven't listened to it since 5th grade

[@bakaninattanoni]

man i love this song i always come back to this once a month

[@okureau]

I love this song so much. And all the possible interpretations just make it even better

[@Vallantra]

This is like some madoka magica fever dream

[@NekoHarlequinn]

Me: Huh look a flower. Wonder what this could be... ////Video starts >Listens to Intro >Checks out Related Videos Me: ....Machigerita.

[@tangcaihuang1385]

you must have gathered a lot of courage just to click on the song then...

[@lianasive7388]

Tang Cai Huang no I just like the melody

[@gumiyamegpoid4646]

Am I the only one who knew it's Machigerita only after seeing the thumbnail image of a flower with a photoshopped mouth?

[@evileyeden8024]

Has everyone seen patchwork toxin? Good.

Is it bad that i'm the ONLY one that's not completely terrified by the flowers with photoshoped mouths on them? o.o Just wondering.

[@Pansaint]

[@crawfishie]

wtf 10 years ago.......... anyway yes king that was a red flag

[@limitlesslizzie]

Some of the art reminds me of PMMM

[@YukiJeevas1]

I love the melody of this song thank you so much for translate it :3

[@ChibiLiet]

Yup, it's Machigeriita. Shoulda known.

[@tantanpou]

Wow! I never thought of that....talk about a creative interpretation.

[@boneswilson2121]

A-at least it's s-smiling, r-right? Yea...h-happy smiles...

[@I_HaveRabies]

Y-yeah…

[@Tha_bom]

What's the song's meaning? Even In wikia I dinn't got a explanation And plz, don't respond as something related to undertale

[@CelestialPlue]

Thais Camargo I believe it tells the story of a corpse being cremated.

[@tortellini6087]

A woman is killed by her lover and the song recites the funeral procession and cremation, and the subsequent haunting of the lover by her.

[@draconiusultamius]

I don't understand this song, but I can't get enough of it...

[@EDxEC]

I love everything about this video and song!!

[@Susielovekemo21]

This was the n25 song I was talking about earlier😅 Vocals:😒they say it’s yoisaki kanade asahina mafuyu and hatune Miku) N25 or L/N plz reply cuz you’ll eat sand after the song gets added to the game🌸👄🤡 (or probably VBS)

[@floweysnextvictim]

it’s being added into pjsk??

[@sweetheartpower]

Kanade and mafuyu alt cover I guess (just want this as a 3DMV) (or L/N is getting it or maybe VBS or just VS)

[@Susielovekemo21]

Y’all guys I like mah comment I know that if they were to add this horror songs to pjsk, it would probably go to VBS It looked kinda extremely creepy if it was 3DMV mafuyu will slay cuz why not Thanks for the replys

[@stevidycus]

and this... is why i love machigerita. but those flowers... just terrify me. XD

[@moonkingdomify]

You know that things put mouths on flowers before Undertale right? I mean the game wasn't even that good, it just got a massive boost in popularity because a few people liked it.

[@arrivederci7141]

Thank you! I used to like the game, then with every other thing I ever like, the fandom came and destroyed it.

[@moonkingdomify]

Moon Flame I recently actually got it and it's a good game. The mercy function is well done and originally designed but it's a gimmick that kind of runs dry after a little bit. I'm just happy I missed the massive part of the game's popularity.

[@arrivederci7141]

Hm. I agree. I don't have a computer, so I can't play it myself, but I've watched other people.

[@meimisaki8927]

Ditto, Master of Disguise the fandom stuff is so annoying it's all my friends talk about except ONE, ONE FRIEND

[@kolibrispacestation]

Its not the flower, its Bonetrousle.

[@schizokoi]

FINALLY FOUND THIS SONG AGAIN

[@tantanpou]

Interesting interpretation...I felt like she charmed an admirer with inticing words ("...in the Garden of Flattery...the tongue crawls), making them believe she loves them. However, like in the Jorogumo legend, she tricks the admirer ("Pecking at the red string like a spider...it snaps with a snap (the red string being the 'red string of fate' and the spider representing the tricky Jorogumo)") and burns them alive. In the end, she is found out by a witness, who arranges a mob to capture her.

[@Nausea90]
