Muramasa - Swinging

[@kennynakawaki]

Currently rewatching Tower of Druaga again after 8 years! I watched twice before back in 2014 as an 8th grader, so very nostalgic for me! Love this OP!

[@Cuestrupaster]

Man I really LOVE Druaga no Tou, is my favorite anime by far, is so awesome how it makes you want more of that world... I would love to see another anime in the same Universe and World, but with different characters, maybe some hundred years after the Druaga no Tou...

[@jjbb84x]

I didn't think much of it at its time, but lately it's had THE STRANGEST nostalgic pull for me!

[@boboboy8189]

it's based an old NES game if I'm not wrong

[@Cuestrupaster]

@@boboboy8189 Based on an old arcade game... ~holy shit you have no idea how hard was to not say deez nuts...

It is still a happy song if you look up the translation the song is about being in love whether the world looks boring and dull. You don't need color to bring energy to your relationship your make it yourself. The first word she says in the song is monochrome.

[@sac4900]

Been looking EVERYWHERE for this godamn thing. what a fun song it is

[@Kalfhier]

Song Title: Swinging Artist: Muramasa Anime: Tower of Druaga Song translated to English: monochrome, illuminate me colorfully as if it's an old cheek to cheek dance like the movie I saw somewhere one day the end roll on the dance floor swinging swinging in this world that's dyed in many colors I will dance with you in my dream keep your hands connected with me who's about to drown in your smile melting into the light, let's laugh and dance in the light monochrome, illuminate me colorfully as if it's an old cheek to cheek dance like the movie I saw somewhere one day the end roll on the dance floor swinging swinging in this world that's dyed in many colors you begin to smile as the stars fall don't return now into memories I promise you that in my dreams I will gather even all those tears and I will make you smile swinging swinging in this world that's dyed in many colors just like this... let's walk shoulder to shoulder when spring comes let's smile when summer comes let's search for winter in the autumn sky even the sighs that have been spilled will depict the two of us just like this will depict the two of us just like this...

[@Kalfhier]

I think the song is about a person, despite everything has ended, cheers theirself up as they remenisce the happy memories and cherish the love and all the feelings that they once experienced with their loved one. Swinging means moving back and forth. We can be happy at times. We can also feel sad sometimes. But nothing lasts forever. We are not always happy.. but we also cannot be always sad. Yesterday may have brought us happiness, today may have given us sadness.. Someday, we will be happy again. I think this song shows some of that optimistic outlook.

[@Chaosminerz]

English lyrics taken from the wiki Monochrome, illuminate me colorfully As if it's an old cheek to cheek dance Like the movie I saw somewhere one day The endroll on the dancefloor Swinging swinging In this world dyed with many colors I dance with you in my dream, Don't let go of the hand you held Me, who's about to drown in your smile Laugh and dance in the light Monochrome, illuminate me colorfully As if it's an old cheek to cheek dance Like the movie I saw somewhere one day The endroll on the dancefloor Swinging swinging In this world dyed with many colors You begin to smile when the stars fall, Don't return to memories I'll promise you in the dream That I will gather even all those tears And make you smile Swinging swinging In this world dyed with many colors Like this... Let's walk shoulder to shoulder when spring comes Let's smile when summer comes Let's search for winter in the autumn sky Even the sighs that fell Will depict just the two of us like this Will depict just the two of us like this...

[@Nooshdog]

[@acolyte1951]

[@Rilick-rilicK1994]

[@samuelfernandez3722]

voy de paso buscando música I like music

[@twiggymac]

i love the part were the saxophonist (or ists, i cant tell how many there are) slowly goes higher and higher on the mouthpiece ending in a squeak. ive never heard a practical squeak until now =P

[@MrBeandip7]

Japanese ska :) Amazing

[@manjuxbun15]

@MistySerenity ohh ok. thank you for the clarification :]

[@tanner7364]

Pick it up!!!!!!! I

[@Saianjin]

[@MakimaMelee]

It originated from an old arcade game, i dont know much about it but i think it was about when the king climbed the tower

[@MonsTa7460]

2021 still listening

[@Cimex090]

DRUAGA NO TOU !!!

[@BusterEditModelFx215]

IKR!

[@eyuan31]

The anime was great, and this song is great too :D But the intro with them in the real world was misleading :/ I wonder how they'd be in the real world!

[@Cuestrupaster]

Man it's just off topic, what happens in the OP isn't cannon...

[@solmos4278]

Wow, a full opening song that its not a shit (you know, the same song twice). Nice ^^

[@satake24]

ムラマサ懐かし〜（笑） まだ頑張ってたんだね！！

[@jaykenarn6223]

I want just an instrumental of this

[@TheWanderer2404]

Jayke Narn search anime the hylia. A website has all the anime songs trust me you won't regret it

[@faiz625]

Hmm every time i like some Japan song i always seek for their english translation . . . and i always confused with their meaning . . . well then again that's Japan Songs for you ^^ COOL SONG!

[@TheWanderer2404]

Tower of Druaga 🎉

[@ZulakaZed94]

Is Muramasa a band or the singer only? and yeah the sounds is energetic but the vidz...well u know it....kinda sorrow....

[@kurtczp]

thats what i thought too at first. i thought they all ended up there from something

[@alterego2667]

when part of the anime story is actually 'swinging' . yeah, you know what i mean.

[@corvoattano9303]

Um what?? 😆 What do you mean by that?

[@huy3581]

12 years now.. time pls

[@HeroTK28]

GOT THIS SONG DOWNLOAD LINK OR NOT?? :(

[@Always_on_Cue]

They remind me of No doubt

[@edimilsonalvesbarbosa126]

Brasil love 🇧🇷🇧🇷🤩 love 🇧🇷🤩

[@novusfines]

well that would be nice as well..then @ least we can understand what the song is all about

[@SpitFire301]

fucking love this song... its so odd to see a real person singing it for some reason. CAN I HAS MP3??? this song makes me shit puppies its so good

[@andysarma3774]

3137371 i totally agree with you.Great song non the less.

[@FerrignousBlob]

Great song, wish the video contained actual swinging (swinging)

[@darkeye123321]

kawaii:D

[@kurtczp]

you if you think about it, its in japanese, so wouldnt you have to read an english translation (if there is one)? just saying though

[@merchantfantasy2444]

japanese ska yeah (^^♪

[@manjuxbun15]

is this the same girl who sang the opening for Spiral? they sound really alike O.o

[@HeroTK28]

where can i get this song~ ><

[@kurtczp]

do you have the translation for this song?

[@oOoToPoOo]

:D iloveyou now

[@Flyingmonkeysftw27]

It may just be me but when she sings "swinging swinging" it doesn't look like her mouth is moving at all.

[@jaykenarn6223]

well, after all it's just a music video.

[@NekoSasoriKirei]

The song is very beautiful but the video concept i think must be re-evaluated, its too dark for the lyric content, it have some of color but keeps being dark..... i just have to say the song is very beautiful

[@CrzyNick]

I thought it was pretty good but then again I have no idea what a good anime is. I am a Berserk and Claymore fan...... and that's pretty much all I know.

[@thekingkellogg]

@Ilham6678 what?

[@mynameismrmeow]

the director need to study what storyboard that suit the song ...

[@GameAaron]

didn't like 2:41-2:44 but other than that great!

[@superfu11]

does any body have the sub lyrics of this

[@JakeCosplays]

Such the opposite of what tower of druega intro is like

[@ahxel07]

I dont ge it >.< why is the vid so loney and dark?? im hope it would be more energetic.

[@novusfines]

not 2 be an ass of a critic..but this song doesnt seem fit with the video..when i 1st heard the song i always pictured the video to be a little more energetic..the director should have gone all out 4 d music vid..sry muramasa fans..

[@mikaelmaltby6687]

DivineWhore I agree... Lol I found this on the intro for The Tower Of Druaga and the opening is so energetical

[@seaslug7421]

Looks so dark and dank

[@qscvkg]

to be fair I honestly have no idea what they are saying to not being able to speak or understand Japanese, so even though it SOUNDS up beat it might actually be a pretty heavy song when you understand the lyrics, hence the more serious looking music video. I could be wrong, but for example I would think "Pumped up Kicks" is a happy and upbeat song if I didn't understand the lyrics.

[@rameshkumar-cg3cs]

DivineWhore ,

[@johnson122122]

@3137371 because muramasa is not beautiful so the director used a black background to hide her face better that's what i subjectively feel

[@Kasufrakis]

The song sounds powerful but the video looks a little bit sad.

[@ベラート]

令和6年に聞きに来た

[@kurtczp]

i guess so

[@seigeheim3247]

Backroom in 2008, very creepy and scary Also Muramasa* at the Backroom 2008

[@razor911]

the OP was better :P!!

[@thuonggotluck]

Lol

[@lozoft9]

I was thinking of a totally different artist haha

[@thuonggotluck]

Lol i know. But when i first saw the opening i thought they all came from the real world. what a disappointment but oh well.

[@stormblast2005]

the tower of druaga is a bad anime but the opening is so good xD

[@Cuestrupaster]

How the best anime in the history can be a bad anime for you???
