[03/31] Happy birthday to my favorite Japanese songstress, Maaya Sakamoto! She's also a really prominent voice actress!
As it is her birthday, I wanted to share with you all some of my favorite songs from her (ones I've heard at least). It's gonna be difficult, but I'll keep it to ten of them. ^_^;;
This is gonna be a long post (and full of music), but I hope you enjoy anyway!
birds
youtube
Found on her album 'Easy Listening' (one of the first albums I bought of hers). It's such an amazing song! The last leg of it does make you feel like you're flying (at least to me). Definitely one of the songs I had on repeat alot in my younger years.
Hemisphere
youtube
This song is used for the opening of the anime called RahXephon. I like how the song picks up during the chorus. It just makes me so hype! Here's the opening if you're curious about the anime.
tune the rainbow
youtube
This one is the ending song played for RahXephon the Movie: Pluralitas Concentio--which is pretty much a compilation of the anime. I originally heard the unplugged version first (which is also really good). Here is an (official?) amv for the movie. Watching it again...I'm rather melancholic because of what happens in the anime/movie. I should rewatch it.
Waiting for the Rain
youtube
This song is used as the first ending for the anime The Asterisk War. I've never watched it, so I know nothing about it. But this song is really soothing, and one of few songs Maaya has sung fully in English. Here is the ending if you're curious about the anime.
Kazemachi Jet
youtube
This one is used as the second ending for the anime Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles. It's got such a playful kind of feel to it. I really like the first few notes from the violin (?) and guitar. I never did finish this anime. Maybe it's time I should. Here is the ending if you're curious about the anime.
KINGFISHER GIRL - The Song of "Wish You Were Here"
youtube
This is yet another song that Maaya has sung fully in English. It comes from her album 'Shounen Alice'. It has kind of that folkish (and a little melancholic) feel to it.
Kiseki no Umi (Sea of Miracles)
youtube
Used as the second opening for the anime The Record of Lodoss War. This song is pretty dope. When it first comes on, it just gets me really hyped up! And then when the chorus comes I'll sometimes try to belt it out as well. ^^;; Here is the ending for the anime if you're interested.
Tell Me What the Rain Knows
youtube
This song is used as a special ending for the anime Wolf's Rain. It's got a sense of sadness to it. Once again, it's a song sung fully in English. Every time I hear it, I'm reminded of the last few episodes of the anime... I should rewatch it. Here's the special ending if you're interested.
Triangler
youtube
This song is used as the first opening to the anime Macross Frontier. It's an upbeat song with an opening line that has you asking: "Who are you going to kiss? Me or her?" The anime (like most Macross, if I'm not mistaken) contains a love triangle of sorts, so the title fits. Here is the opening (which was really tough to find) if you're interested.
Yakusoku wa Iranai (No Need for Promises)
youtube
The opening for the anime The Vision of Escaflowne. This is pretty much the first song I heard from Maaya. This one also has a kind of folkish sound to it. It's also one that I'll try to belt out the chorus to. And the bagpipe breakdown in the middle slaps! Here is the opening to the anime if you're interested.
(Quite a few) honorable mentions (that I also wanted to put on my list):
Himitsu (an actual mv!) NO FEAR/Aisurukoto Yubiwa Ame ga furu Hikari a-re cloud 9 Mameshiba (an actual mv!) Million Clouds afternoon repose another grey day in the big blue world Koe Kaze ga fuku hi Light of love Active Heart CALL TO ME (so romantic! now I'm dedicating this to some of my ships) Here 03 Remedy universe koucha watashi wa oka no uekara kabin wo ageru peace DIVE gravity SAVED. THE GARDEN OF EVERYTHING (feat. Steve Conte) inori

I hadn't heard this Lord Huron song, what a lovely Durgetash song
I see it on SO many Durgetash edits on TikTok, and it always makes me soft. It's so sweet as a song, I listen to it sparingly so I don't make these two horrors too emotional, lol.
But there is a scene coming up in the Gortash perspective of the recent Ketheric fic where they both wonder what it would have been like for Ketheric to be married which allowed for the sweetness!

i used to be so good at writing strong, thoroughly-researched, thoroughly-edited essays.
as a kid in hs, my teacher literally came up to me, holding my 40 page essay on the intersection of the European witch hunts and capitalism/exploitation/gender roles (it was supposed to be 7 pages...whoops) and went like "this is literally a master's-degree level thesis. what are you doing?? you could literally use this as your final dissertation in a master's program, what the fuck."
NOW??? NOW?? you'd think I'd be oh so skilled. but alas. i can barely piece together two ideas. adhd skill-regression is so so real. im SOBBING

Some crickets and grasshoppers and my thoughts about them.
I've always been interested in bugs since I was real small.. I should draw them more often.

#project sekai#pjsk#prsk#emu otori#proseka#tsukasa tenma#nene kusanagi#rui kamishiro#wxs#wonderlands x showtime#GUYS I AM PUTTING OFF WORKING ON MY COSPLAY SOMETHING STUPID. im tireddddd i like sleeepingggff i want to play and drawwwww#after work ​I literally ate a giant bowl of mac n cheese and climbed into bed. lifestyle choices of a 9 year old#anyways i want figure skaitng set. bad. PJSK HAS A WEIRDLY LOW NUMBER OF ACTUALLY WINTERY SETS... like 3. kind of.#i have some thumbnail sketches but im kind of stumped on composition for them. my idea was a nene focus set#(IF HER NEXT FOCUS ISNT PHANTOM OF THE OPERA THEMED INWILL DIE. BADLY. THEYRE GOING TO AN OPER AHOUSE. PLEADBR)#originally my idea was for nene to be biting a medal i was very sold on it bc i love nenes competitive side#however her outfit is so nice i want it to also be part of the art .. its heavily inspired by that one iconic eunsoo lim dress#from her somewhere in time program iirc. im really undatisfied with emus dress tbh my origimal idea was to give it a phoenix look#but a lot of the firebird/phoenix skating programs have very sleek dresses and i want emus to be fluffy. the balance is hard ..#and since i want her program song to be once upon a dream from sleeping beauty i swerved to make it look a bit like auroras ? but again#it definitely feels like the weakest of everybodys ... maybe i just love her too much and want her to look the best. sorry wxs.#tsukasas outfit is supposed to look like a shooting star. easy. program music moonlight sonata 3rd movement like from dazzling light. easy.#actually i like takahashi daisukes moonlight sonata program its a medley of the 1st and 3rd movement.. i think the calm at the beginning#is best. maybe smth like that.. for his card inhad him doing a haircutter spin but again. the outfits good i want the outfit visible. damn.#ruis the one im very set on even now. girl why are you so phantom of the opera.#it has a lot of beautiful programs to reference but the outfit i didnt really have any solid reference i kind of just balled#my main idea was to make it look a bit like both christine and the phantom.... gender Fluid.#my yapfest... i should be SEWING!!!!!!!!#despite my yapping im not that well versed in figure skating i cant really distinguish jumps i just like it . and medalist#i only do normal skating. bc i played hockey for like 7 years LOLLLL inlove skating though Heart.

I genuinely mean it when I say that life becomes at least 30% more manageable whenever you allow yourself to become obsessed with something that is a little bit silly
