[Lyrics] K-ON!! Insert song – U&I [HO-KAGO TEA TIME]

htt

U&I is from episode 17 of K-ON second season. Yui writes it to Ui when she realizes how important she is to her. The lyrics are simple and at times a little cheesy but it does a great job of conveying Yui’s honest feelings. It’s definitely one of my favorite songs from the series thus …

[Lyrics] Amagami SS ED2 – Kitto Ashita wa… [Tanamachi Kaoru]

amagami-ss-ed2

It’s a little late but here’s Kaoru’s character song/ending performed by Satou Rina. It’s basically about how she acts like just friends with Junichi but wants her relationship to be more. Basically the same problem I have when I like my friends…as more than just friends. Anyway please enjoy.

[Lyrics] Seitokai Yakuindomo ED – Aoi Haru [angela]

aoi-haru

When I watched the first episode of Seitokai Yakuindomo I knew I wanted to work on this song. However I can’t exactly say I had an easy time with this song so certain parts maybe translated somewhat more loosely than I normally would. I’ve chosen to keep some of the cheering parts as onomatopoeia since …

[Lyrics] K-ON!! OP2 – Utauyo!!MIRACLE [HO-KAGO TEA TIME]

utauyo-miracle

Time for another round of K-ON lyrics. This song is simply put very Yui-like which means I like it. It’s sometimes hard to make out what’s being sung just because of how fast Toyosaki Aki is singing but the lyrics themselves are relatively simple to understand. Anyway, all three sets of lyrics below as usual. …

[Lyrics] Angel Beats! Insert Song – Ichiban no Takaramono (Original Version) [karuta]

angel-bests-ost

The karuta version of Ichiban no Takaramono is slightly different from the Yui Version. The main difference is that verses 1 and 4 are completely unique to each version. There are also a few changes scattered around the song but most are variations of “you” to “everyone.” I’m not sure which one I like more. …

[Lyrics] Amagami SS ED1 – Kimi no Hitomi ni Koi shiteru [Morishima Haruka]

amagami-ss-ed1

The first Amagami SS ending song is credited to heroine Morishima Haruka who’s played by Itou Shizuka. I don’t find the song particularly amazing or anything but I like Morishima as a character since she’s so weird. With that said I’ll be doing the rest of the series’s songs as well so look forward to …

[Lyrics] Seitokai Yakuindomo OP – Yamato Nadeshiko Education [TRIPLE BOOKING]

seitokai-yakuindomo-op

You know what? It took me a while to realize that SYD stood for Seitokai YakuinDomo? Anyway hopefully the translation came out fine. One part I’d like to note is that the lyrics that go “Isshin doutai Doutai?” can be translated as “As one soul and one body. One Body?” which goes along with the …

[Lyrics] K-ON!! – Sakuragaoka Joshi Koutougakkou Kouka (Rock Ver.) [HO-KAGO TEA TIME]

Here’s a request by a certain anon. This song was released with the Pure Pure Heart single and is a rock version of the school song for Sakuragaoka Girls’ Senior High School (桜ヶ丘女子高等学校高歌). You can hear the regular version in the first episode of K-ON!! The song’s pretty nice and the lyrics are pleasant. I …
