Another interpretation, for what it's worth: This song is about a long distance relationship. The main character visits his hometown for the first time after having moved away, and reminisces about the time he was there, and what he could do then that he cannot now that he is far away. ‘Cloud Rider’ is a metaphor for the distance he has to cross, both physically and through time, to return to what he wishes he were living. He never actually ended up confessing to the girl he loved, and left before he could get his feelings across. In fact, she must have said something to him that brought reality crashing down on him, possibly along the lines of never seeing him as a romantic interest in the way he wanted her to. He still has feelings for her even now, and he’s lamenting his lost chance, and when he debates telling her now and escaping reality, the line she says over the phone breaks his illusion. The whole song is pretty much him trying to escape the reality that he’s been forced to see and live through, by trying to return to a time in the past he longs to go back to, before his regrets begin.
I have watched this video so many timesm its great! a theory of mine is that his GF got hit by a car and one shoe represents her. also at 0:43 you can see him looking at the reflecting in the mirror, you see him with medals and someone holding flowers like someone in a funeral. also if you see in some parts you see him on the floor with one shoe off like he got it and he survived, also sometimes one of the shoe is darken. at the end he had to commit suicide to be with her!
Jesse Hernandez That would make a lot of sense too. Honestly, I think one of the best aspects of this video is its mystery. Both with the lyrics and the artwork.
Unfortunately, there's no off-vocal which has been released or is on the album (´Д`) I really was hoping for some more covers, so hopefully it'll be released sometime soon?
I like this song itself. In the case of first love, the illusion disappears after three days of dating. If this PV guy is 14 or 15 years old, I can understand the story. It can be understood as the consequence of seven years of unrequited love for a childhood friend who moved to Tokyo. However, no matter how you look at it, it only looks like an adult. If so, it may have just been released from prison or juvenile training. A man who was unable to climb the adult stairs for seven years flew over the clouds and crashed. (↑Google translation) この曲自体は好きだ。 初恋の場合、付き合って三日も経てば、幻想が消える。 このPVの男が14・15歳なら、話が分かる。東京に引っ越した幼馴染に対する7年間の片思いの結末として理解できる。 しかしどう見ても成人にしか見えない。とすると、刑務所か少年院から出所したばかりなのだろう。 大人の階段を7年間も上ることが出来なかった男は、雲の上を飛び、墜落する。
i think this song is about the guy who dream is to be a runner. He had a girlfriend who supported him to achieve the dream. She bought him the green sport-shoes. but the guy started to neglect her after he won a tournament or something( 0:40 , the guy was reflecting his past and u can clearly see the girl reaction at the back). the guy may had separated from her, and each time she called him asking when he will come back, he didn't answer her (1:50, he is engrossed with running at that time)
*changed the word 'lost' to another word... He's still carrying the shoes, maybe he doesn't want to throw his past out but at the same time he runs by his feet. I also heard that 'Past isn't to forget but to memorize it and become stronger'. So, that's my opinion :3
For my own perspective, I think the boy realized that he is waiting for someone who will not return anymore, a person who is already dead. It's stated in 1:56 "The thin string is cut" which means the girl died *If you happen to know the story about strings of faith* So in the end he gave up his delusions. I just don't know if he even tried to commit suicide. Anyways, I love the song, PV and everything. I like songs that don't immediately give the meaning This song makes me think. Which is good
I think it's something like this: The boy had a really good female friend in high school. After graduation they lost contact. After 8 years the boy started thinking about that girl and phoned her house. But he found out that she was dead. So he travelled back in time to meet her/ stop her from dying... It's just my opinion...
He does look like Jae min, but he looks a lot more like Nanase Haruka from free...especially with the jacket. o-o But anyway, I love the Lyrics, story, and the producer used her voice so well. ^^

All I could understand was that someone he loved when he was in school left. He went to find her, but despite all his attempts, he failed. I'm not sure about the ending, but I think he committed suicide by jumping off a large building near the clouds. That's what I personally think. Either way, GREAT IA SONG!
as sad as it might be, i think in the end he does not meet her after all, even though he tried, time and distance had already made them too far apart ;w;
I'm not sure if this is significant in any way but why does the character chose to run without his shoes on when he is clearly shown as having them with him?
I respectfully disagree with both of you. I don't think he's moving on. I think the song is about him still living in that fantasy of his and not moving on per say.

IA sounds so good like this! She should be tuned lower more often.

That was actually so beautiful omf

+jezzibelljai It's simply amazing
I taking this one instead.
Here six years later and this is still one of my all-time favourite songs...
This is why IA is my favorite vocaloid.
As depressing as this song is, I cannot and will not stop listening to it.
IA's tuned so amazingly clear! I like how she can sing the lower ranges and then reach the high ones like an angel.
This song introduced me to IA, my new favorite Vocaloid!
This is a really good song to go running to
I see what you did there
This song is way underrated. ;w; It's my favorite by far.
This is absolutely my favorite IA song ever and I swear it make me want to cry every time gaaaahhhhhh it hurtsssssss
This song just makes me think of how much better Vocaoids are than American Singers.
Wooo
Steven Chen Yes yes it is and I have an uncle with your name and he never liked them. lol.
Every artist has their own special talent. No need to disgrace anyone.
This song is sad and so good. i'm literally tearing up T^T
AH yes... shoes. ಠuಠ
.
.
.
sry to ruin the moment here. I love the animation and how the producer uses IA's voice! seriously ;w; ish amazing maaaang.
Unfortunately, there's no off-vocal which has been released or is on the album (´Д`)
I really was hoping for some more covers, so hopefully it'll be released sometime soon?
This has been my favorite song ever since I saw ArsMagna dance to this
I think everyone can relate to this song in one way or another.
Wow, it sounds really cool! I love the fast pace of the song. I could listen to this song all day.
これめっちゃいい曲よね…。もっと有名なってもいいと思う…。
love IA ~~~ Love CHRIS art too :333 this is too perfect ~
Oh god the nostalgia
It's 2024 and I still love this song
The Nico Nico link doesn't work anymore, but I found the cover here: www.bilibili.com/video/av759854/

I've always loved IA and this is very nice. =)
KURADO RAIDO
I love this song already! Thank you so much for the subs! :'D
I love this! It sounds amazingly awesome!
I like this song itself.

So great
this song is amazing

IA IS AWESOME!
I have a feeling that I missed an important detail watching/listening to this song TTuTT"
For my own perspective, I think the boy realized that he is waiting for someone who will not return anymore, a person who is already dead. It's stated in 1:56 "The thin string is cut" which means the girl died *If you happen to know the story about strings of faith* So in the end he gave up his delusions.

this song is so good... T-T
I think it may refers to 'the past' or 'his old self'. So he runs without shoes 'cuz he has lost it (by growing or separated from the girl)
I think it's something like this:
The boy had a really good female friend in high school. After graduation they lost contact. After 8 years the boy started thinking about that girl and phoned her house. But he found out that she was dead. So he travelled back in time to meet her/ stop her from dying... It's just my opinion...
Search "cloud rider romaji" in RUclips and you should be able to find them. uvu
He does look like Jae min, but he looks a lot more like Nanase Haruka from free...especially with the jacket. o-o But anyway, I love the Lyrics, story, and the producer used her voice so well. ^^
I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS,!!!
Wow!
It's the same artist, CHRIS! You should really check out her pixiv and other stuff, as her art is super great ;A;;
this is why, for a long time, I thought volcaloids were humans
the feels man T•T
♥ it

El mapa oxidado enterrado en mis recuerdos lejanos;
cambiando de tren tres veces, llegué a la ciudad.
¿Es este el bullicio de Shibuya?
La Tú de un tiempo borroso y desaparecido...
Si un monstruo camina haciendo la misma cara...
Esa tienda ya ha desaparecido en alguna parte,
sacando mi cápsula del tiempo;
la hago rodar en la palma de mi mano, mirándola...
[Esto es, ¿una historia de cuándo?] Incluso si escucho en el espejo, sin expresión alguna,
los recuerdos, los sueños se desconectan;
hace 7 años es ayer ...
Cruzando el tiempo,
inmediatamente vine a tu encuentro,
sentimientos resbalando, resbalando en superficies,
sentimientos llenos en un punto muerto,
desde la abertura en las nubes brillando más allá;
si renuncio a esta luminosa realidad,
desvanecimiento, desvanecimiento de deseos,
la verdad oculta;
cualquier persona es, sí, un jinete de las nubes en el último momento...
Los dos prometimos secretamente en voz alta
que podríamos cantar desde la memoria las canciones populares de ese día;
porque este es un conflicto local,
solo hay una oportunidad de escapar...
[¿Cuándo será la próxima vez que regreses?] Ni siquiera tengo una respuesta a la pregunta.
La delgada línea está cortada...
esta historia inventada es la libertad, ¿no es así?
Cruzando el tiempo,
inmediatamente vine a tu encuentro,
fantasías girando, girando en mi pecho,
impulsos deformados, distorsionados,
desde la abertura en las nubes brillando más allá;
si renuncio a esta luminosa realidad,
una respuesta es devuelta, devuelta,
la profundidad perforando tu mirada,
cualquier persona es, sí, un jinete de las nubes en el último momento...
Lloro con una sonrisa que no se ha visto...
¿Las historias indescriptibles se multiplican dentro de las personas?
Con las oraciones, la realidad se invierte;
sorprendentemente, aun así, eres especial para mí.
Cruzando el tiempo,
inmediatamente vine *aquí* a tu encuentro,
sentimientos resbalando, resbalando en superficies,

can 1 live a very adamant dream?
love this song!!! kawaii!!
Oh. Thanks! :)
MY EARS AAHHH SO GOOD
All I could understand was that someone he loved when he was in school left. He went to find her, but despite all his attempts, he failed. I'm not sure about the ending, but I think he committed suicide by jumping off a large building near the clouds. That's what I personally think. Either way, GREAT IA SONG!
are you going to be doing an english cover for this, cause if so that would be AWESOME
Yeah, she is.
this is a reeeeally well made pv I love it so much--
except IA looks idk a little dead when she sings but okay
Whoever disliked it has no taste in music
as sad as it might be, i think in the end he does not meet her after all, even though he tried, time and distance had already made them too far apart ;w;
イアちゃん最高!!
これ好き！！！！！！！！！！！
songs that make me sad
this song remind me the movie "the girl that leaps through time"
Do you have an mp3 link? The nico link won't work because there's no sm before the numbers I guess? I absolutely adore this song.
NOW PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO TELL THAT IA HAS AN INSENSITIVE VOICE HAVE NO ARGUMENTS
Tear me down
Seems like that link to Lia singing this song doesn't work anymore...
There SHOULD be A LOVE BUTTON
daremo ga sou giri giri no kuraudo raidaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ♪♫♪
Is there a song of IA and SeeU's that I don't like? Like seriously I LOVE all their songs!
Omg Juby you should totes do a cover when a Off vocal comes out.
This song is so sad...
TT^TT I cri evryteim
Amazing song....but the video made no sense to me at all....
Look through the comments. Amittai Muffin gives a really good explanation :) It shouldn't be too far down
SING IT. PLEASE, I'M BEGGING YOU
bassweight !
I'm not sure if this is significant in any way but why does the character chose to run without his shoes on when he is clearly shown as having them with him?
can anyone explain what this song is about?? even the the subs... ._.
How do people make PVs like this?! Seriously!!
Reminds me a lot of Steins;Gate, nice song
do you have the off vocal version of this song? :'D
I respectfully disagree with both of you. I don't think he's moving on. I think the song is about him still living in that fantasy of his and not moving on per say.
there isnt an instrumental-vers. =(
I like it!
but I'd like it even better if someone explained it to me please!
Amber
