This time will be “Furusato”, one of my most favorite old songs in Morning Musume. There are five PV for these single, the main released PV, the special shots of Takahashi Ai, Niigaki Risa, Tsuji Nozomi, and Yaguchi mari, and I included some concerts. My favorite shot was Niigaki Risa, she nailed the notes perfectly(in my opinion)
Romaji Lyrics
Toukyou de hitori kurashitara
Kaasan no yasashisa kokoro ni shimita
Toukyou ni hitori de ita kara
Aitsu wo suki ni nareta no
Shitsuren shichatta wa
Naitemo ii kana?
Tsugi no yasumi ni
Sukoshi kaeru kara
Namida tomaranakutemo
Mukashi no you ni shikatte My Mother
Namida tomaranai kamo
Wagamama na musume de gomen ne Mother
Toukyou de hitori kurashitemo
Watashi wa mukashi no watashi noi manma
Okeshou suru no oboeta wa
Anmari umakunai kedo
Tanoshii hi ga atta
Aitsu ga ita kara
Koi wa suteki ne
Samishikunakatta
Namida tomaranai no wa
Anshin shita sei da yo My Mother
Namida tomaranai kedo
Mata koi suru keredo ii deshou Mother
Nagareboshi wo mitara
Nani wo inorou kana?
Sha la, sha la la la, sha la la la la la la la…
Namida tomaranakutemo
Mukashi no you ni shikatte My Mother
Namida tomaranai kamo
Wagamama na musume de gomen ne Mother
English Translation
Living alone in Tokyo
Mom’s kindness permeated my heart
Because I was alone in Tokyo
I was able to fall in love with him
It was an unrequited love, is it okay if I cry?
Next vacation
I’m gonna go back home for a bit
Even if my tears don’t stop
Scold me like you used to, Mom
My tears might not stop
I’m sorry I’m such a selfish daughter
Mother
Even if I lived alone in Tokyo
I’m still the same person as before
I remembered to put on my makeup
Even though I’m no good at it
I’ve had fun days because he was there
Love is wonderful
I wasn’t lonely at all
My tears won’t stop because
I’m so relieved, my mother
My tears won’t stop, but
It’s okay if I fall in love again, isn’t it?
Mother
Seeing a falling star
What should I wish for…
Sha la
Sha la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Even if my tears don’t stop
Scold me like you used to, my mother
My tears might not stop
I’m sorry I’m such a selfish daughter
Mother
This is a five-minute song which have a short lyrics. weird, huh? when you listen to it, the music in the end is a minute long. But totally love this one.
This single was one of the song which I really understand most. It’s seems to be about a daughter who regret about something; maybe she regret of falling in love to the person she met when she moved in Tokyo. She decided to move and live in Tokyo all by her own and her mother supports her decision. But as the time goes, without her mother’s guide or something we call limitations maybe, she fall in love to a guy and just easily broke her heart. It is common for a girl who just broke her heart to cry for a very long moment, you fellow girls have experienced these things too, right? then it’s a good song to listen(for me^_^). She thought of her self of going back home (which seems to be the meaning of the title “Furusato” ‘hometown’) and heartily said “It’s better to live at home” since she can still hear her mother’s advice about things like love.
I can still understand more deeply about this one, but I think this is the better explanations so far, it’ll just confuse you more. Anyway, click those links of you want to watch the videos of Furusato sang by the different artists.
