The title is more interesting in the original Japanese, as there is a double meaning thanks to homonyms. As written, it clearly means "Jesters of the Moonless Clear Sky".
However, when spoken out [Tsuki-naki Misora no Doukeshi-tachi], one might hear it as "Jesters of Misfortune".
The homonyms are "tsuki-naki" (moonless or luckless) and "misora" (clear sky or fortune).
This may be a reference to a novel called 月なきみそらの天坊一座 (Tsuki-naki Misora no Tenbou Ichiza) about the life of a magician in post-war Japan.
The title there may intentionally have the same double meaning.
English version of this is called "Jesters of the Moon" even though the Japanese clearly shows 月なき meaning "moonless".
The English name kinda made you think it was referring to them working for Kuja, and him being from Terra.
thanks for sharing
Nobuo Uematsu is really good with this vibe/atmosphere thing - "Court Jesters" sounds kinda clownish, joyful, just like it should sound, perfectly describing characters and situation.
おじゃるとごじゃる こういう、とぼけた曲調ほんと得意ですよね
Dawntrail didn't disappoint with its version of this theme
HELLO ITS SO GOOD
I've always seen this called Jesters of the Moon, but it's such an awesome song. It's unfortunate that it never plays for long, because it's ridiculously catchy. The rearrangement in FFRK was also incredibly good.
安心してずっと聴いていられる☺️🫧
洒落たタイトル、曲調、愉快で悪辣なおじゃるとごじゃる
強く印象に残る一曲
Oh-no Kefka Jrs. But seriously love those lyrics
Twin brothers bound by blood
Jesters back and forth and back again
-Forth and back and back and forth and
Red and blue, our signs
Written clearly on our faces
We serve the Queen on high
Our loyalty's unquestioned and
-Unquestioned is our loyalty and
Until "that" day comes
We'll simply bide our time
Joined in a spiral cord
Connected forever and eternally
-eternally and forever connected
Our fates entwined
Our juxtaposition
Were we one, now two
Twins or two halves, or is it the same
-the same is it, one of two or not
Memories of old
echoes of an old er time
Uh oh
This isn't going well at all
Maybe
I think we're in trouble here
Torn apart us now two
-binding helix gone astray
One Two One Two
-a life apart that doesn't feel right
Torn apart us now two
-join together form as one
Was it always this way
Torn apart us now two
-a broken shattered gemini
One two one two
-always together, always apart
Torn apart us now two
-this empty feeling always stays
This connection doesn't feel complete somehow
You and I are one
My memories cannot lie to me
-Lie to me my memories can't
But why are things this way?
What have we both done wrong?
Cast out into the sea
Our fortunes lost, what to do, oh
-What to do, our fortunes lost
Go with him or stay
-Without a home, can't stay
What choice is this to make?
-Is this a choice to make?
Mistreated, can't escape
This isn't fair, we tried our best
-Tried our best, isn't fair this
and abandoned, we ran
We thought we had a home
Didn't ask to be this way
You hurt us and we can't fight
-Fight we can't and hurt us you
We need a place to stay
Jesters don't seem quite right
-Quite right don't seem, take flight
Uh oh
This isn't going well at all
Maybe
I think we're in trouble here
Torn apart us now two
-binding helix gone astray
One Two One Two
-a life apart that doesn't feel right
Torn apart us now two
-join together form as one
Was it always this way
Torn apart us now two
-a broken shattered gemini
One two one two
-always together, always apart
Torn apart us now two
-this empty feeling always stays
This connection doesn't feel complete somehow
still such a good song!
I can never tell what key this piece is in. I know it’s in A, I just don’t know if it’s major or minor. The bass during the melody implies major, but the overall feel is minor. 😵💫
So good.
this is like the musical form of that one "worst person you know makes a great point" image
こいつらの末路、哀れだったよなぁ…
Still crying 😢
At least these two are playable in Brave Exvius, for whatever that's worth. XD
２作品連続でおじゃるいるのいやしすぎる ハマってたのかなライターさん
大好きな曲です！！！🎭
i like these characters.
these characters i like.
This track was originally called "Jesters of the Moon." It's not the only track that gets a re-name. "Loss of Me (Beatrix's theme)" gets re-named as "Rose of May" for whatever reason.
Probably because in Japanese "Loss of Me" and "Rose of May" are kinda written the same way, so probably the first name was just a mistranslation
@@Dragorosso95 I doubt it since "Loss Of Me" best describes Beatrix's struggles between her sense of self, sense of duty, and wanting to do the right thing while being compelled to place duty above all. "Rose Of May" doesn't convey that at all.
@@3Storms Isn’t the Red Rose her airship?
@@Dragorosso95 Red Rose is the queen's ship.
@@3Storms Yeah true, but still she commands it after the queen dies
This shit is a bop.
Spoiler
When i first saw them i knew they were gonna turn into some ugly creature eventually or fuse haha, its fun
Dawntrail brought me here
○○○○博士「おじゃる」
anyone else bummed they didn’t use this theme for a certain pair of jesters in XIV?
FF14から原曲聴きに来ました！
ストレイバロー
Why'd they change the English name of the song? It's so lame sounding now.
Ah yes, these two mysterious characters- Zorn and Thorn, which according to the Ultimania are "over 80 years old" and "aren't actually twins"… Which never gets fully explained, especially when they fuse together and transform into a two headed monster. (Expect to see that "never explained" statement a lot) And they also talk really annoyingly.
0:30 Thank you for wasting a bunch of time with this needlessly dragged out scene of these two clowns arguing, Sakaguchi and other co-writers… And before anyone says anything, I have nothing against Sakaguchi as a person. He is just better in a producer role than he is as a writer, and IX's writing, which he was heavily involved in, really shows.
Also, nostalgia shills like to toss around his "IX is my favourite Final Fantasy" quote like it actually means something and is proof that IX is objectively "the best Final Fantasy" . He also said the same exact thing about FFV. This is the same guy that nearly tanked his entire company with that awful "The Spirits Within" movie. Sure, his opinion is "gospel". I'd also like to point out that he was going to do THIS with Kitase and Nojima in the original FFVII if Nomura hadn't stopped him and the others:
[Tetsuya Nomura: But if I hadn't stopped you, in the second half of the game, you were planning to kill everyone off but the final three characters the player chooses!
Yoshinori Kitase: No way! I wrote that? Where?
Tetsuya Nomura: In the scene where they parachute into Midgar. You wanted everyone to die there!
Yoshinori Kitase: Really? Wait, I'm starting to remember …
Tetsuya Nomura: Yeah, remember? You and [writer] Nojima-san were all excited about this. I was the one who said "No way!" and stopped you guys. You wanted to kill everyone except the final three characters the player chose for the endgame.]
(Quote is from an interview on 'Polygon' about the making of FFVII. It's called "Final Fantasy VII: An Oral History")
Of course, Nomura had no involvement in IX, which is probably one of the reasons why it was so lacklustre and disappointing. He definitely would have objected to a lot of the questionable writing that Sakaguchi put in and would have tried to rewrite and improve some things.
Nomura is a huge scapegoat for the fanbase and they love to blame him for things that aren't his fault, like the Whispers in the VII Remake. (That weren't even his idea) I hope Nomura will be involved in the IX Remake.
1:23 Zorn "We are going to ask Princess Garnet if we can return to the castle."
Thorn "Return to the castle? Can we really!?"
I don't see how these morons can think that that can work out for them considering that they ripped Garnet's Eidolons out of her and sent a bunch of bandersnatches to try and kill her and Beatrix on Brahne's orders.
And considering what they are revealed to be later and how Kuja seems to know about that, that just raises more unanswered questions. Such as, why didn't they just go to Kuja from the start after Brahne dismissed them? How did they even come to be a part of Queen Brahne’s court in the first place?
[They hide behind the statue. Blank and Marcus run onto the screen]
Blank "Looks like no one's here."
Marcus "Yeah."
Blank "I guess this is about the only thing we can do for Zidane..." "...Keep up the night watch and preserve Alexandria's peace."
Marcus "Yeah, I think so, too."
Or maybe you guys should have told Zidane that leaving to go to Treno for a card game was a really freaking stupid idea.
Also do you two really think that you would be a match for the white haired guy who now has control of a powerful Eidolon?
Zorn "We cannot stay as long as those meddlers are here!" "We must leave Alexandria!"
Blank and Marcus are not what is really stopping you, though. I refer to what I said above when they said that they would ask Garnet if they could "return to the castle" and them thinking that would work out.
@@Zelink108 did you seriously create an account just to shit on FFIX? That's some dedication there lmao
@@Phyllion-yeah this is either just bait or this person has way too much time on their hands spewing garbage
@@Phyllion- No, I have been here for over a decade and have had different names. Keep making ad hominem though and ignoring my points.
@@dimitriosgladio059 I love it how any criticism of IX is considered “bait”, this just proves that IX is the true overrated one of the franchise.
Look, I’m not hating on IX for the sake of it. It had a lot of wasted potential and I WANT it to be better, I’m just pointing out problems that are often overlooked to draw more attention to them. And hopefully a IX Remake can fix all of these problems.
