Ok so I’m sure a lot of you know this song and backwards and forwards by now, but in case you don’t…there’s a bit to be explained lol. So first, “yubikiri” literally translates to “finger cutting” and is the Japanese version of a pinky promise with the idea that if you break the promise then, well, you get it. The origins as to why it’s called this aren’t certain as far as I’ve read but there’s a theory that prostitutes in Yoshiwara aka. red light district would give their pinky to their lover as a show of devotion, taken from cadavers sometimes instead. Again, I can’t find great sources on the origins but they do align with this song pretty well and it’s pretty clear what’s going on in this PV from Project Diva. Also, I should explain that the very last line is “yubikitta” which was hard to convey all the meanings it holds in just four syllables but is essentially the past-tense of yubikiri, thus, can be read literally as “finger cut”. Yeah o have fun with that, I’m sure someone in the comments will have better knowledge of all this compared to me. I also took freedoms with the lyrics since I wanted it to have more impact in certain places and had to interpret things further than they were originally suggested. Basically what I do in every one of the covers lol so yeah.
Enough explaining, I keyed it down (-3) for anyone who will ask and slaved way too hard over those harmonies since my program kept crashing. Classes are hard and my brain is drained, so I’m gonna eat and pass out after this. Enjoy!

--------LYRICS----
Tonight I give my body up to him
For you alone, I’d carry any sin
Trust me when I say, you’re rare in every way
I prefer to speak my mind
These aren’t pretty lies, no
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah, I’m so in love with you and yet
All that I see, inside your eyes upon me
Are other people I’d rather see dead
Look at me, look at only me I beg
My heart will ring a sound but quietly
It bathes in black, with filthy chords I sing
The men, before, I knew yes they’re nothing next to you
I don’t care what past you keep
Future’s all I’m wanting
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah I wanna fill this hole of greed
All that is mine, my body, heart deep inside
Whatever I need to give to be free
Come excite me, lemme feel the burning heat
I lay inside an exhibition, small and dark
Holding a love covered in dust, just like my heart
“I don’t believe that this is true love” you would call
So I need to show you that I’m serious, I’ll show them all
Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah I’d do it all for you and me
Hair that I lose, tearing my nails from the root
Cutting a pinky or two if it means
That these feelings carry for eternity
Pinky swear me

[@cephalopodenergy2790]

That moment when you realize that Miku actually cut off her pinky in the video.

[@thatonellamawhoissoobsesse8138]

oh

[@thatonellamawhoissoobsesse8138]

You were serious :00000 And after all this time of playing project diva I simply didn't notice :000

[@sekliley7587]

Looks more like she cut it but not off

[@thatonellamawhoissoobsesse8138]

Sekliley Yeah that's a better description but I think she just has a bandage on since the project diva models can't remove limbs off of a model ^-^

[@queenalice7483]

Futaba Sakura I WISH YOU HADNT WROTE THAT CAUSE I CANT STOP NOTICING IT! DAMN YOU!

[@dekoridenest]

The scary thing is how well the lip animation syncs up with Juby's singing

[@natashaalejandrabellogonza9940]

Omg I just noticed that:D

[@Emilyrox]

When I first listened to this I didn't read the subtitles. I misheard "Come EXCITE me" as "Come INSIDE me"..........I think either way it works

[@fagitocumaeda]

I am so in love with this, this song is one of my top fav Vocaloid songs (^’:

[@dangerouslybliss]

Juby is such a goddess tbh...

[@fergfile7330]

I wish more of her songs ended up on Spotify

[@gigithehedgehog8469]

The lip synching is so good!

[@ichorren3388]

Been waiting for this cover!! I think ‘pinkie promise me’ would have fit the syllables at the very end better, but thats just my opinion. Amazing job as always ;u;

[@mizkiz6205]

Me: I love you Other: Prove it Me: *Cuts off Pinkie* Is this enough? LOVE MEEEE

[@reina_harhar7815]

This song is not all about being a yandere! Did you see anything related to being a yandere beside the lyrics?! It's all about a Prostitute being in love. In Japanese culture if a Prostitute is in love they offer their pinky.

[@chillfactory9000]

I believe the yakuza did that too? I could be incorrect, but I heard if they needed to "prove themselves" to groups or gangs of sorts, they'd cut off fingers (specifically pinkies)

[@yuriforwaifu7486]

I LOVE THIS SONG YESSS

[@leahbrown7023]

I can't wait for this to be on sound cloud so I can listen to it all the time *^*

Kimi no Taion followed by Pinky Swear... if she does a cover of Karakuri Pierrot and ACUTE I'll probably die from excitement.

[@anoxilium]

"tearing my nails from the root" oW yikes that sounds almost as painful as cutting off your finger wtf LOL

[@midoriyaizuku4444]

I don't mind a Yandere Juby as long as it's her and her worth dying kawaiiii voice.

[@Trideca_Quin]

It would be amazing if you could do 'Deal with the Devil', the Kakegurui opening.

[@Chorp_]

Pinky is probably in that lunch box...

[@crab7252]

[@aniflowers1998]

So, are Miku and the black haired girl one and the same person in this video? I'm confused xD Maybe I'm thinking to complicated about this xD

[@teresanu]

Ani Flowers I saw it as the two girls are in love, one being a prostitute and the other a normal girl personally. I have seen here and there that cutting off your pinky and giving it to the one you love was a thing when it came to prostitutes, so I feel its what the brown hair girl was doing. That's just how I see the song at least

[@EmmyExe]

You are very correct Teresa nu. The scenes keep switching between miku and the girl is to show how far this girls will go to show her love and dedication to her special someone. The level of it being compared to that of a Japanese prostitute, that are known to gladly cut of a part of her body( the pinky specifically) to declare her love to someone despite her job. I mean, a prostitute will give alot of lip service(not just physically) to her customers, so believing words wouldn't be enough thanks to this occupation, so you gotta be more direct(although painful) with your feelings.

[@msking1000]

The two above are correct! But, Dame! Trust me. I'm know no where is perfect, but that's to much! Even for Japan!

Anyone else see this and think it was Yubikiri Genman from deemo, was disappointed, but after listening was satisfied.

[@metacat2133]

heyyy I'm not late :3

[@ChileanDud]

i'd sing this but with another context, since i dont do that type of jobs as the song shows- but in general its beautiful bro
