So, a little late to start the music blogs, but as you know, I’ve been busy, an essay needs to be in for next Friday. So I probably won’t do many, maybe 2… which would mean the other is Shana’s op. We’ll just have to see if I get addicted to any other ones, so far, only this one has caught my ear, apart from Light My Fire.

Phi Brain’s opening theme, Brain Driver by May’n.



KY’s blogging Phi Brain so I suggest having a look, it’s an interesting anime with a nice theme of puzzles. I do enjoy some nice puzzles now and then. Always good to make your brain think outside the box.

The song is by May’n, who I guess I’m a fan of, I know some of her other songs and have blogged them as well, I think… you’ll have to excuse my bad memory…  But anyway, I found this to be a rather enjoyable song. It’s got much more of a ‘tougher’ feel to it than the other May’n songs I know like ‘Ready Go’ or ‘Scarlet Bullet’.

The main thing that stuck out in the opening for me was the opening guitar riff plus how Kaito and Orpheus was sketched out first and then coloured in. I found that rather artist, and the way they pieced the title together. The rest of the animation was pretty much the standard. The music had a kinda futuristic feel and I have to say, the chorus caught my ear especially when it keeps mentioning supernova…

Lyrics

Kimi no nounai e to shinnyuu
Nemutteru suki ni baby open the gate
Fukuzatsu sugi sekyuriti kakusareru to abaki taku naru
Barabara ni chirabatteru pasuwaado o hiroi atsume
Kakushin ni sematte iku sono shoutai o misete

Kantan ni kuria dekinai saki nante motto yomenai
Kaidoku fukanou sumairu kiken na pazuru
Rokku sareta doa aru nara zutto tataite miru beki kazaana aku wa
Eien ni hodokenai nazo nanka wa nai

Maki okosu it’s a supernova!
Tobikiri shigekiteki na
Hirameki o agemashou misskey misskey latuma
Yume no naka it’s a supernova!
Watashi wa sou brain driver!
Kimi ga sagashi motometeru kotae ni nareru made

Watashi ga iru kioku ni dake
Bukkumaku shite baby come see me
Dono foruda re’nai mono? sotto magire komasetai no ni
Hairi kunda meiro mitai SUTORENJI na shikou kairo
Yoru ga akeru sono mae ni hontou no KIMI ni aeru?

Ima made deatta dare yori futoumei kimi no kategori
Misukasare sou shiikuretto kiken na misshon
Tayasuku chikazukenai kara akirameru toka watashi no jisho ni wa nai wa
Muboubi de mukuna basho mitsuketai dake

Tomaranai it’s a supernova!
Kimi ni fusokushi ga china
Kirameki o agemashou mirror mirror hasuma
Ai o kome it’s a supernova!
Watashi wa sou brain driver
Me ga sameta toki ni KIMI wa koi ni ochiteru hazu

Mada kizukanai no? mou kikoeteru deshou?
Hearing my voice in your head

Maki okosu it’s a supernova!
Tobikiri shigekiteki na
Hirameki o agemashou misskey misskey latuma
Yume no naka it’s a supernova!
Watashi wa sou brain driver!
Kimi ga sagashi motometeru kotae ni nareru made

Maki okosu it’s a supernova!
Tobikiri shigekiteki na
Hirameki o agemashou misskey misskey latuma
Yume no naka it’s a supernova!
Watashi wa sou brain driver!
Kimi ga sagashi motometeru kotae ni nareru made

Maybe it’s just me, but those lyrics probably aren’t as well done as some of my others. Oh well, I’m sure they’ll be fine either way. Anyway, I’m running out of time, gonna get this essay finished this weekend, so then I can start my next on next week sometime… Oh fun… *sigh*. Sorry about the song being out of pitch, more than likely to do with copyright… but yeah, what can you do, the actual song is on download on the page I think, so get that.
