Shikaku world channel delivers original Japanese & English songs and stories. This time is the story of “Snow day love”.

<Translation of Japanese Lyrics>

Embrace this feeling that falls without sound in my heart

What do you think of this city now?

Dyeing white

It will disappear tomorrow

Flying snow

I don’t know if they know or don’t know（their destiny）

Just dance and accumulate

I closed my eyes

Your sound that I can hear faintly

I only know now

(Your) gentle warmth

<Story>

A friend of a man has taken me to my doorstep, thinly covered with snow, at 3 am.

We hug goodbye as usual. The fluttering snow falls on my hair and melts.

We don’t say anything to each other. A long hug and silence follow. He works from 7 o’clock. So we have to leave early, but we can’t leave each other. “What are you thinking now?” I wonder.

As quietly as these snowflakes fall, unspeakable thoughts accumulate. “I will leave you tomorrow. Like this snow, the feelings of the two of us now will surely disappear tomorrow. Does snow know its fate?”.

As I close my eyes tightly, I hear a faint sound of your heart. I wish that time would freeze for us in this moment. I hear a gentle sound that erases all anxiety; your warm heart-song. In reverence of this sacred moment, we have discovered our shared heart-song.

I am making stories for songs, so I would like to introduce the concept and story of the song I made with them. This “Transformation album” is based on the theme of “ traditional Japanese ways of thinking ”. The keywords are “Waka”, “ Impermanence ”, and “Kunoichi”. Exploring these themes, I searched for the connection between old and modern Japan and expressed my feelings about these worlds. The title of this song is “Transformation” and the keyword is “Impermanence”. There is a bandcamp link at the bottom of this article, so please listen to it. ＜Summary>  An immortal hermit with mysterious power over a sector of mere humans is laughing at them, as he holds their fate in his hands. Human life is impermanent and constantly changing, however...
