Song Title: Kiss and Cry
Singer: Utada Hikaru
Language: Japanese

This is a song by a very accomplished Japanese and ENGLISH singer, which to me is always surprising in the Japanese entertainment industry. To me, alot of times when an actress claims to have proficient english skills, yeah, the grammar is good, but the pronunciation is horrible. But Utada, she's the real deal. You might be familiar with her from the Kingdom Hearts series. She did the openings for both Kingdom Hearts 1 &2, for both the English and Japanese versions.

I've been an avid fan of hers for several years now, I own her english album, But since this website is solely for foreign language songs, I'm posting my personal favorite on the Japanese-language spectrum of her music.
Often I love reading the English translations, It's like reading poetry.
As for the video, yes, that IS the official video. This song was used in one of the Evangelion movies/shows, so they synched several of the characters mouths to fit her singing.

English Translation Lyrics (Copied from Jpopasia.com)
Delinquents, model students, teachers
Are all the same when they fall in love

The Bass Drum that rings in my eardrum
The pleasant sound of cymbals
The B-section that seems to melt

Your smile is
A critical hit to my heart
I've become so excited, excited, excited

Come closer to me
Don’t hold back
Even if you get a little hurt,
Well, it’s all right, KISS & CRY

I don't like victim complexes
I want to invite you with an upward glance, and be accomplices

Dad’s layoff,
Brother’s internet,
Mom’s dieting, dieting, dieting

Everyone’s a pilot of the night sky
The moonlight cures loneliness
Today’s dinner is Nissin Cup Noodle, Cup Noodle, Cup Noodle

Come closer to me
Don’t hold back
Even if you get a little hurt,
Well, it’s all right, KISS & CRY

DON’T WORRY BABY
If you over think
Or just wish all the time
Isn’t that lonely? KISS & CRY

I JUST WANT TO BE HAPPY
Just a little bit, just a little bit more
I JUST WANT YOU TO HOLD ME
I’m a coward
At this rate, nothing will change
Before my birthday next year
I JUST WANT YOU TO HOLD ME
I don’t care if I'm humiliated

Get hurt a little
Don’t give up
Laugh it off and try your best
The rest can't be helped, KISS & CRY

Find more courage
Show me more of your best
Even if it doesn’t end up the way you wanted it to
Well, it’s all right, KISS & CRY

Okay... I've got to let you guys know now. If I don't get suggestions on languages to look for... Most of the other-language stuff will probably be Asian oriented. Because as I'm an anime lover I'm already pretty familiar with websites in which to find Music Videos for.

But that's not what I want LSD to be for. I'd like it to be a growing experience, for me, and anyone else who happens to have a similiar dream. Please feel free to post comments, ideas and more.

For now, Here's a post of a Japanese Singer, who formerly went by Masami Mitsuoka, but now goes by the stage name "Mizca". This is her latest single "Rafiora". Which is suprisingly unautotuned. :o

Song Title: Asereje
Sung by: LAS Ketchup
Language: Spanish



Here's a song that a lot of people think is called "The ketchup song" when that's actually the name of the group and the song itself is called "Asereje". This song is really catchy, with a spicy tune and dance to go with it. ^.^

Title:  Linda廖語晴 「LP」MV feat.Penny戴佩妮 
Sang by: Linda and Penny 
Language: Chinese Mandarin




After uploading a Mandarin Song that was all sugar yesterday, I decided to upload a song with more spice. ^.^
Song Title: In Your Eyes
Sung By: Rainie Yang and Show Luo
Language: Chinese Mandarin


This song is pure romantic adorableness with sugar. ^.^ I love the tune and how adorable it is. This is a single with clips from the drama "Hi My Sweetheart".  I sincerely doubt the couple singing the duet are actually in a relationship, though. That's just how the entertainment industry is...
