The seriousness of the song makes me forget that this song is for a collab between a vocaloid rhythm game and a known noodle brand of all things. Great cover as always Will it is definitely a vibe! Please don't push yourself from spitting these out too fast tho you had done this at record pace Edit: since I don't think everyone know, the game is Project Sekai: Colorful Stage, while the noodle brand was Nissin cup noodles. We might get the collab songs in the game (JP server first) if some are curious

[@Sestivaa]

No joke, I think about the fact that it's from a noodle collab every time I listen to this song

1:25 I’m Japanese.when I saw this English part,I was moved because ｢強気な狂気(bullish madness)」was translated as “the king forsakes your love”.And it rhymes with “dangerous” and “forsakes your love”. It’s amazing…I think the way you felt about this song is wonderful. 1:25 ここの英語の歌詞で「強気な狂気」が「王はあなたの愛を見捨てる」に訳されているのを見て凄く感動しました。そして”dangerous “と”forsakes your love”で韻を踏んでいますね…凄すぎる。この曲に対する感じ方や考え方が本当に素晴らしいと思います。

[@raleo7466]

Honestly I didn't like how the original broke the rythmn when saying identity, but filling the missing syllable with love and using it as a strong one is so clever. It gives a good swing to the song

[@naya4050]

It's because the way japanese person says english in their accent. So instead of identity. They say Ai-den-ti-ti (pronounce teetee fpr eng spkrs). Same with dangerous, they say it den-ja-ras, and it rhyme with focus because they say focus as Fo-kas.

[@zhumin3557]

​​​​​@@naya4050Yeah, an English cover with one word having a sudden accent would be weird.

[@athenali3132]

Great job as always!! Will is literally the only english cover singer that I listen to, he just gives the vocaloid songs such a unique twist. But also can we appreciate David Toth who always does an amazing job with the lyrics? He makes English lyrics that really keeps the essence of the original song's meaning with no awkward breaks in sentences and on top of that lots of lines rhyme?? What is this god tier lyric translation? If I remember correctly, Telecaster-B Boy wasn't translated by David and I almost immediately noticed the difference in lyric style/quality in that song. Will as always did an amazing job with the singing but I do remember there being one awkward break in the sentence during the song. Of course, it's really difficult to get english to fit neatly in Japanese songs due to various language differences but I think that just goes to show what an amazing job David does!

[@goldenera777]

David & Will gud

[@trickster5941]

Bro the B-boy lyrics sold the theme better than the original what are you on about

[@BreadBoxVideo]

Thanks a lot, homie. I appreciate the kind words.

[@athenali3132]

@@trickster5941 Dude I didn't criticize Telecaster B-Boy for its themes or diction or anything else besides awkward breaks in sentences, here I've literally found the sentences I found awkward. "You stand upon the circus over the -(break)-The crying the bodies Clapping both the (both the? bad grammar, good space filling) hands you -(break)-Point to scoff then turn around and bid adieu" I listened to the OG version as well and I see some terminologies such as "伽蓝寺" which is an antiquated way of saying Buddhist Temple that originally came from sanskrit is SUPER FCKING hard to translate like I had to go do a search for that term just to get better context for it than my basic knowledge of it meaning "Buddhist Temple". Just translating that to "shrine" was a perfect choice imo since it captures the context/essence of the OG without the listener having to google search the term. I've acknowledged that its really hard to get the perfect translation that fits everything and that's why I think David does a phenomenal job each time because I don't think I've noticed a problem like this with any of the vocaloid songs he's translated.

[@athenali3132]

@@BreadBoxVideo Of course! I also especially enjoyed your translation of Asura-chan! Just between us I actually appreciate you and Will's version even more than Ado's OG vers. XD The choice to keep some important terminologies in Japanese (aviici, mara etc.) and the alliterations?? The way you still allow yourself to play with the English lyrics without losing meaning is fantastic. Anyways, keep up the great work!
