    ✻ Lyrics ✻ (Credit me!)
    What if I tried showing you a love that could be?
    In your eyes, what’s the love that you see?
    I’m stringing words, full of lyrical melodies
    As the music ripples right out of me
    Until I try painting you with love that could be
    All these colors are just a fantasy
    When I’m alone, swallowed by the sounds in the air
    It’s a sensation nothing else on this earth can compare
    Inside a life, drowning in monotonous noise
    That was the life of every girl and every boy
    They sound the same, every song recycled again
    Oh plug my ears and let it end
    What if you tried showing me a love that could be?
    In your dialogue would you answer me?
    But if you shut me out, pretending it was enough
    Then hopefully this song will cause you to wake up!
    A forgotten story, of stardom and glory, is now all that haunts me
    Before doors, it’s got me right down to the core, I can’t take anymore see?
    If even a Freudian slip of the tongue is permitted in lyrical melodies
    If ever I cannot enjoy spitting verses I like without swallowing back tears
    If meaning the void in my heart’s gonna tear me apart when it finally breaks free
    Then let me scream out!
    If this world cast me aside to die before I’m through
    I just wanna know, if I could sing this song of love to you
    One more time, I’m gonna try and find the voice to bring
    All the feelings that nobody really cares enough to sing
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    All anyone has done is shoot me with a gun
    While claiming that it’s all in good fun
    Even so, I keep wishing I could love it so
    Even so, I keep wishing you would love me so
    Ah, that would mean the world to me, if you could give me meaning
    If you told me of a love that could be
    Somehow, tell me now, who’s the person you see?
    Tearing apart the box in which you’re guarding your heart
    C’mon and let me see the you in your fantasies
    What if I could become the love I wanted to be?
    Somehow, tell me now, what are the colors you see?
    The grey and white symbols that you see on the screen
    Won’t get across the loneliness that I feel!
    Imposters and copycats, swarming in this site like rats
    Finally are slinking back
    Lie le lie lie
    Half-heartedly making things, forcing a program to sing
    Now throwing the towel in!
    Bye-buh bye bye
    Even so you stayed behind, fighting back the urge to cry
    Even after all this time
    Why wh-why why?
    I know the answer now, all of you out there stood your ground
    So all the boys and girls in town
    Shout loud and stand proud!
    The pain and shame, and sorrow and rage, the delight and the heartache
    Feelings I can’t escape, tomorrow today, no we won’t ever part ways
    But if there’s not anything else on the planet that can keep me smiling through all my tears
    Just what would it do to the feelings inside me that’s carried me through all of these years?
    Would that be the end? Would I give it all up just because of some dumb stupid fear?
    No way I’d like that!
    Tell me how, how I can love the world I left behind?
    Will I have to keep on rolling on until the end of time?
    No, I think, I might as well write you a simple song
    All the feelings that people have long ignored will now live on
    As for you, tell me what would you want differently?
    As for you, tell me what would you wish differently?
    Though only barely breathing, my heart is living in the moment like it’s just the beginning
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    Shining so bright before my eyes, will it light up the future?
    Hey, if you’re gonna scream of your love
    I’ll be here to listen no matter what
    You’re stringing words, full of lyrical melodies
    Though it’s a lot, we still continue to dream
    What if I tried showing you a love that could be?
    All of these lyrics would flash by on the screen
    Oh that forgotten story known to everybody
    I’ve been humming it out for the world to hear it seems.

    The saddest thing about this song is that wowaka was soo afraid that people don't saw him but only Miku. But in the end on concerts people are screaming his name

    • @sero9673
      @sero9673 2 года назад +269

      And the unhappy refrain was not just the exit of vocaloid and he making a band... there was still the reference of people don't understand it was a real person and if they understand they want "make more songs of miku" and he is just was enough...

    • @athenamuldrow1664
      @athenamuldrow1664 Год назад +279

      His legacy is especially fascinating to me: Vocaloid is such a broad pseudo-genre of music, which means you can find songs ranging from jazz to dubstep to heavy metal. The only thing uniting it all together is the fact that the vocalists are usually synthetic (this extends to Utauloids and SynthV voicebanks, as well). It's so diverse.
      Wowaka? He is, without any exaggeration, universally loved by the *entire* Vocaloid community. Everyone knows and recognizes his name, everyone knows at least one song by him, everyone knows the impact he had in the early days, and a large amount of modern producers will cite him as a source of inspiration. It doesn't matter what genre you listen to or if you even particularly liked any of his songs--everyone knows and highly respects Wowaka and his work.
      As unsatisfied as he was with the community in his final years, I hope he can find some pride with that wherever he his now.
      (Side-note, Wowaka went on to join the band Hitorie and they are without a doubt one of my top three bands, please listen to them and especially the song "Monocolor")

      @@athenamuldrow1664 As sad and frustrating it was for him when he left Vocaloid, I really feel like he was able to move on and heal before he passed. He mentioned in interviews that Unknown Mother Goose was a song expressing his love for Miku. Listening to Hitorie’s music from the time around his death, I really feel like he was happy.

      He was so important, a voice expressing what so many people felt. Both as a person and as a creator. I wept when I saw the news of his passing. Because Wowaka's music was absolutely everything to me in middle and high school. I hope he knew what an effect he had on so many people across so many countries. It reached me, a random US white girl, and so many other people from so many other places. I hope he rests in peace forevermore.

    Not many people talk about this, but here’s the meaning of the song.
    The song is a bit like Unhappy Refrain: It’s about the recognition and credit that Wowaka didn’t receive.
    Some don’t know this, but after the song Unhappy Refrain came out, Wowaka took a long break from making Vocaloid songs, some argue that this was because of his band Hitorie, but you can tell by Wowaka’s last song before the hiatus that he wasn’t satisfied in the Vocaloid community.
    Unhappy Refrain was about the credit Wowaka didn’t get, because people credited Miku, not Wowaka. Unknown Mother Goose is about the same thing, a song about why he left.
    You can see in the lyrics that it’s about Wowaka not getting credit
    “Can you see me?”
    Can you see Wowaka and not just Miku?
    “A forgotten story”
    Wowaka was forgotten
    The line “Pick me up again” was a mistake on Wowaka’s part. He admitted that the lyric is supposed to be “Give me love again”, people misunderstood it.
    “Give me love again”
    Give him credit, attention, love again
    It’s sad how Wowaka’s last Vocaloid songs were about an unsatisfaction with Vocaloid music, but I’m sure he’s happy to know that he’s getting the recognition, love and attention even though he’s gone.

      I look at this song a little different. I'm not really know Japanese but this song has 'two' pronoun. 'Atashi' and 'Boku', I believe wowaka wrote two POV in the song. Atashi is Miku POV and Boku is wowaka POV. Despite on everything, I think unknow mother goose pretty positive song than unhappy refrain.
      After unhappy refrain, finally people can see him, not miku. So he try again, try to entrusted those feelings to 'this voice' again. So in my opinion, this song represent what wowaka encountered with miku 'voice' but in positive way. It sad that this is his last song though...

    Is it just me, or does a few of the lines ("If this world casts me aside to die before I'm through", "Tell me how, how I can love the world I left behind?", "Though only barely breathing") make it sound like wowaka knew his time was limited? I never picked up on it before, but hearing this song translated puts it into a whole new perspective.
    wowaka really deserved better. I hope he's resting in peace.

      This is mere speculation, but the common theme of trauma in his songs when it comes to relationships could point to a severely traumatic experience. And that can cause Takotsubo. Also known as the broken heart syndrome, which would explain a heart failure at such a young age.
      Would be a rather cruel twist of fate, that the thing which inspired his brilliant works also could have been the cause that ended it.

    This is a classic example, and it is very unfortunate, that an Artist finally receives their credit after they are dead. Wowaka was only beginning to get his recognition just before he died. His death brought light to songs of his, most notably this one, Unknown Mother Goose. Its that spotlight that only shines on you when it's too late. Since his death, most of Miku's fans have changed significantly, I am one of them. Miku the character became so famous, which is where the line "Honestly Can you see me through the screen" came from. Do you see miku, or can you see even deeper and see wowaka.
    I think all of the producers, writers, and modeling artists deserve good credit, but Wowaka was a very big loss, he wrote some of the most powerful songs in the Miku team, and her AI sang them so well, such an amazing pair. Unfortunately, and this is my opinion, I don't think anyone else on the team can write a song as powerful or as meaningful as Wowaka did.
    A friend of mine once said, Wowaka was like the Gordon Lightfoot of Miku song writers. He wrote his songs with deeper meaning and questions than just writing the song on the topic. His songs went into such depth, like Gordon's famous "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald".
    Rachie, and everyone else who did this one, phenomenal job on this English cover, fantastic lyrics and very good translation and alteration to make the English lyrics fit. You ALL did a great job. Thank you.

    If someone ever needs the lyrics but cant sing it on time with the video because of the timing, here you go!
    What if I tried showing you a love that could be?
    In your eyes, what's the love that you see?
    I'm stringing words, full of lyrical melodies
    As the music ripples right out of me
    Until I try painting you with love that could be
    All these colors are just a fantasy
    When I'm alone, swallowed by the sounds in the air
    It's a sensation nothing else on this earth can compare
    (instrumental)
    Inside a life, drowning in monotonous noise
    That was the life of every girl and every boy
    They sound the same, every song recycled again
    Oh, plug my ears and let it end!
    What if you tried showing me a love that could be?
    In your dialogue, would you answer me?
    But if you shut me out, pretending it was enough
    Then hopefully this song will cause you to wake up!
    A forgotten story, of stardom and glory, is now all that haunts me
    Before doors, it's got me right down to the core, I can't take it anymore, see?
    If ever a freudian slip of the tongue is permitted in lyrical melodies
    If ever I cannot enjoy spitting verses I like without swallowing back tears
    If meaning the void in my heart's gonna tear me apart when it finally breaks free
    Then let me scream out!
    If this world casts me aside to die before I'm through
    I just wanna know if I could sing this song of love to you
    One more time, I'm gonna try and find the voice to bring
    All the feelings that nobody really cares enough to sing
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    All anyone has done is shoot me with a gun, while claiming that it's all in good fun
    Even so, I keep wishing I could love it so
    Even so, I keep wishing I could love it so
    Ah, that would mean the world to me
    If you could give me meaning-
    (vocalizing)
    If you told me a love that could be
    Somehow
    Tell me now, who's the love that you see?
    Tearing apart the box in which you're guarding with your heart
    C'mon and let me see the you in your fantasies
    What if I could become the love that I wanted to be?
    Some how
    Tell me now, what are the colors you see?
    The grey and white symbols you on the screen
    Won't get across the loneliness that I feel!
    Imposters and copycats
    Swarming this site like rats
    Finally are slinking back
    (Lie la lie lie)
    Half-heartedly making things
    Forcing a program to sing
    Not throwing the towel in!
    (Bye ba bye bye)
    Even so you stayed behind
    Fighting back the urge to cry
    Even after all this time
    (Why why)
    I know the answer now
    All of you out there stood your ground
    So all the girls and boys in the town
    Shout loud and stand proud!
    The pain and shame, and somehow sorrow and rage, the delight and the heartache
    Feelings I can't escape, tomorrow today, no we won't ever part ways
    But if there's not anything else on the planet that can keep me from smiling through all my tears
    Just what would it do to the feelings inside me that's carried me through all of these years?
    Would that be the end? Would I give it all up just because of some dumb stupid fear?
    No way I'd like that!
    Tell me how, how can I love the world I've left behind?
    Will I have to keep on rolling on until the end of time?
    No, I think, I might as well write you a simple song
    All the feelings that people have long ignored will now live on
    As for you, tell me what would you want differently?
    As for you, tell me what would you wish differently?
    Though only barely breathing, my heart is still living
    In the moment like it's just the beginning
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    Honestly, tell me can you see me through the screen?
    Shining so bright before my eyes, will it light up the future?
    (vocalizing)
    Hey, if you're gonna scream of your love
    I'll be here to listen no matter what
    You're stringing words, full of lyrical melodies
    Though it's a lot, we still continue to dream
    What if I tried showing you a love that could be?
    All of these lyrics would flash by on the screen
    Oh, that forgotten story known by everybody
    I've been humming it out for the world to hear it seems

  • @monitaroy7462
    @monitaroy7462 3 года назад +60

    Jesus. The video's an incredible tribute in its entirety - the visuals, and the LYRICS. Rachie's lyrics for vocaloid songs are my favourite of them all, and I feel like for the first time I can articulate way. I can read direct translations of Japanese lyrics, but they often turn out a little jumbled, a little harder to grasp the meaning of, than if I was fluent in Japanese and read them that way. But the way rachie adapts these lyrics just... makes it all crystal clear again. It's genius.
    I want to cry, and I'm not sure if it's out of happiness at hearing this song, which means a lot to me, like this, or if it's because I'm feeling sad that wowaka's gone again. Probably both. Thank you so much.
    "Tell me what would you wish"? I wish we had more years with wowaka. I loved what little I heard of his work with Hitorie too.

    I wasn't active in the community during most of the time Wowaka was and even when I was, the (unintentional) disrespect propagated by crediting the voicebanks rather than the the artists was scarily commonplace, as discussed in this song. It made it so I didn't even realize who made some the most influential music in the community. I'm *still* finding tracks I loved when I was younger and only now discovering that they were made by people I'm a current fan of. That is to say, Wowaka's songs, the heart and soul of his work, they're what got me as into this community as I am today.
    I just wish I could thank him for everything he has done in helping me to learn and grow as a person. Rest peacefully, my friend.
    And, as always, excellent work, Rachie. I'd like to think he'd be proud of this, and of you.

    The way of how you managed to perfectly recreate the feelings and meanings of this song is absolutely amazing. Never have I seen a single person deliver the message of a song almost even better than the original. Especially with the fact that this is a cover of a different LANGUAGE.

    His music and art were so good, man, I miss him so much
    Btw, I love your cover. Unknown Mother-Goose is my favorite vocaloid song and I've probably heard it a million times, but this cover was like my second most listened song in 2022. I love the power you put on it, and the feelings that come with it. Keep the good work, it's amazing!

    Wow, just wow. I think this is one of the best covers I've ever seen. This translation of the song made me really realize just what wowaka meant in the lyrics. And where do I even start on the video, the details, the editing, the animation, I'm shooketh! That's the only way I know how to describe it!
