Got Kuraki Mai’s newest album, OVER THE RAINBOW in the mail today It arrived much earlier than I thought! Anyhow, lyrics are up and I’m currently working on translations… They should be done fairly quickly since I like most of the new songs.

EDIT>>And so the translations are also done and up

strong heart even after vacation ends~

I want my vacation back! Oh well, at least I finally received my kuraki mai’s Strong Heart cd! The lyrics and translations are done and up. Surprisingly, I actually like the upbeat Strong Heart over the slower kimi no koe this time (I usually like the slower songs). I didn’t include doushite suki nandarou~winter ver.~ under Strong Heart since it came on a separate bonus disk and the lyrics are exactly the same as the original version…

vacation~

Currently enjoying my long-awaited vacation in Japan! Unfortunately, kuraki mai’s newest single comes out a couple days after I leave Would’ve been really convenient and cheaper if I could get it while I’m here… Oh well, I guess it can’t be helped.

lack of motivation~

I finally got started on tainaka sachi’s newest single,,, Not too much of a fan of ‘hanabi’ even after listening to it a few times, thus the lack of motivation to work on the lyrics. Translations should be up within the next week or so….

kuraki once more~

I finally got my two new singles the other day and lyrics and translations are both done for kuraki mai’s ‘mou ichido’ and ‘doushite suki nandarou’. ‘Doushite suki nandarou’ is actually a release under nerd head (never heard of him before…) featuring kuraki mai. Both are sad love songs… I actually liked both except for the rap segments.

a new story~

Lyrics and translations (there were only a few that needed translation) for kanon’s A New Story is done and up! There were some songs that were “ok” but for the most part, I really enjoy the new cd and a great recommend even to non-FF fans

a new cd~

xxminkxx — Fri, 06 May 2011 05:08:11 +0000

I got kanon’s new album, “A New Story”, in my mail today! I’m so excited to listen to it! A lot of the songs are based on music from the Final Fantasy games… I don’t play any of the games but I have enjoyed the various soundtracks so it may be to my liking Lyrics won’t be up for another week or so since I work this weekend and a friend is visiting from out of state…

innocent 10 million kisses~

xxminkxx — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 22:19:32 +0000

Somehow I feel a sense of accomplishment… Why? Because lyrics and translations for both Tainaka Sachi’s album, innocent and Kuraki Mai’s single, 1000 man kai no kisu are done and up! I was translating late last night and didn’t realize that it was way past my bed time… at least I was able to sleep in this morning

time flies by~

xxminkxx — Sat, 19 Mar 2011 06:14:54 +0000

It’s already March and I’m finally making the first update for 2011! Talk about time flying by! Work has kept me busy as always and we’ve already had to go in several times on our weekends just to catch up… Now I’m sick. I’ve been sick for over a week already but haven’t been able to take off work Rather than taking off work, I think I’ve been putting in more hours than usual… Oh well, enough of my ranting.

I started working on Tainaka Sachi’s newest album lyrics. I also finally received my newest Kuraki Mai’s newest single today. Waiting for Kanon’s album to be released end of April now. I’m not sure when I’ll have the time to complete and put up all lyrics but I am slowly getting to them.

happy holidays~

xxminkxx — Sun, 19 Dec 2010 08:17:04 +0000

And Kuraki Mai’s FUTURE KISS translations are finally up! I actually had the translations done a week after the previous post, but several things prevented me from posting them earlier. First, I got two new games and found myself spending most of my free time on those (I still am XD). Second, work has been keeping me super busy with extra jobs like helping prepare for the holiday party and year end audits. Well, it’s up and I guess that’s it for this year… Happy holidays to everyone should I miss (and I probably will) posting any further updates for 2010….
