I got worried when I saw you talking about rap in the last post. All I could think was that it would ruin that beautiful melancholic feel of the original and that it would feel like a waste considering it's one of the few English covers of this song that I hold so dear to my heart. But my man you really killed it. The feeling is there and I love everything about this. Sincerely, Will from the bottom of my heart, Thank you ehehe
@@willstetson i love the song and i think that you have nailed the fealing of it all tho the "bouth of us are hated and betrayed by our own live" changes the meaning of the son from an open letter to the world to a personal note to someone, which partaly steals the fealing of "you are not the only one who thinks this way" and is twisted to "i feal the same" which might have a negative interpretation of "only me and you feal this way/aknowlage this way of things". beyound that you have nailed the rap.(edit: spelling do to dislexia)
@@kamilsowik7884 I was thinking that as well, but in my mind i imagine it's "both of us" as in him and whoever is listening so in that sense it is everyone? I dunno if that makes sense or not but yeah. I also can't help but to think how different this version is from Oktavia's version. Not that it's a bad thing of course I think it was amazing and I love how there's a little spin on it with the rap. I think it's really cool though that you can interpret the same song differently to come out with pretty different results that are both awesome and retain the meaning and power behind the words Sorry I'm just happy about this haha. Speaking of oktavia what if there was another collab? Roki was awesome. I'm thinking like revolution's dualism or something
@@hijisfriend9030 I agree, I like Oktavia's, but I like the wording better "might go to waste" or "I could die tomorrow, but we'll never know" rather than "will go to waste." or "my life was such a waste." They're both really good, though.
I love how you went absolutely PERFECT on the lyrics, while keeping the same meaning but also flows, especially the “both of us” sounds really similar to the original “僕らは”! I’m half Japense btw XD and the lyrics always hit as hard as the original and so on point! This is exactly what I called “translation”, because you didn’t just translate the words from Japanese to English like some others did! Good job, David!! And also the singing is so * chef kiss * charming!
To be honest, I was really worried about the whole rap twist ruining the song, but after listening it was actually really fitting and you executed it very well!
Damn. My sister and I had a bet you'd use Oktavia's lyrics. I'm not trying to be ungrateful or whatever, but I now owe a seven year old a full turn around drawing of her OC and 1500 words featuring said character. Thanks a lot, Mr. Stetson.
This is the kind of song that drags you up from the lowest of your lows and lets you know that you aren't alone, and what you're facing isn't forever, and you'll get through it all eventually
Even though you said it in the community posts and it's literally in the title lmao, I didn't notice that it would be rap, so it was a bit unexpected for me. I didn't hate it though; I love this arrangement and David Toth's lyrics so much. Also, Takayan created this rap arrangement? That's awesome af Kanzaki Iori is a producer whose songs have gotten me through...a lot. I first discovered this song around 3 years ago when I was in 6th grade, which is when I was struggling with a lot of things in my life. To put it simply, I wasn't a good person. But I also didn't know how to be a good person, so I tried to isolate myself from others so that I wouldn't fuck everything up. Back then, music and writing (and discord) was my refuge. And even though I wanted to end it all, a part of me really didn't want to. I never wanted to die, life just gets unbearable sometimes. And sometimes, I didn't even want to die, I just didn't care. It felt like I couldn't feel. It was as if I wasn't even alive in the first place at all. Whenever I listen to music like this, I feel something. Back then, I was desperate to feel anything. So I drowned myself in this music just so that--for a few minutes each day, I could feel that I was alive. Slowly, things got better. I found people who I could confide in. I broke away from toxic relationships, matured, and set boundaries. I sang more. I talked more. I tried more things, and found people that I cared about. People who care about me and love me for me, and people that I wouldn't want to upset. Sometime in 7th grade, I came across your channel in my recommended. I followed Yoh Kamiyama at the time and listened to your cover of Yellow, and Ikanaide, and Zen Zen Zense, and so forth. I took solace in this "safe space" of the music and the voices that the Youtaite, Utaite, and vocaloid producers had seemingly created. I didn't want to leave that safe space, because I was always looking forward to that next song, that next cover someone would post. And that's one of the reasons why I'm still here. I know that the relationship between a viewer and a content creator is almost, if not always, strictly parasocial, which is completely fair. I also know you probably won't see this, but thank you for singing, Will.
it really means a lot to me that you were able to find so much comfort in my music. with such an attitude, you'll definitely make a huge difference in this world. thank you for listening and i hope you continue to stay!! (also i do read every comment!! :D)
This is my favorite Vocaloid song. Will is my favorite cover artist. I will die. This will make my day, I know it. Edit: I'm... speechless. Just... thank you Will, and David, and everyone else who worked on this. Thank you for... exsisting, basically. And I'm blown away. This is amazing.
@@g.s556 can I correct your correction, mafu didn't make this song, he simply covered it, and the cover got more popular than the original. And the original... is a Vocaloid song
i never thought this song would work as a rap but it sounds so much more hopeful? i used to listen to oktavia’s version when i was 13 and it feels like the song evolved into this one
The Japanese rap is actually from Takayan and then Harusaruhi used his lyrics. Nonetheless, lovely to see this version get covered in English. Good work!
Wow i have heard many versions of this song English Japanese by different artists and all where good but this, this is fantastic its almost an entirely different song I love it I'm so happy RUclips recommended this to me keep it up I always love your covers and this is no exception
This just hits different. Thanks for singing this song in this way. I always love when people change this song to way they want and sing it in their own style. Seriously, thanks for this delightful experience. This immediately became my 2nd favorite cover for this song.
Holy crap... I usually dislike rap, but that rap section blew me AWAY! It was a fantastic cover of a song I already loved a lot. Lemon, this, all my favs are being covered, haha! Found you through your Kagerou Daze covers, glad I subbed! Thank you!
I think I know why I want to see more English covers of this song now. The lyrics tell different story’s with each different video, yet still has the same meaning. Awesome work
Initially, I had low expectation of this cover bc hated by life doesn't seem like it'll translate well but after playing the song 2-3 times, I have fallen in love with the rap chorus. Those lines are really so good and resonate with me. Now I'm checking out your other covers and I really the lyrics translation you chose and how you express/sing it!
,,Please don't just let it go, Deep within that fragile heart, that tiny little hope'' every time I hear this line I feel tears in my eyes, its really something diffrent when u hear the way u sang it
"Trying hard another sings a song to keep surviving..." That seriously hit me in the feels, not being a singer or a musician, just constantly listening to stuff like these though...these have become my breathe, along with memes. Thanks...guys...thank you so much...
Crazy late, but you actually did amazing on this, sir. Take a loyal sub. I might not comment on every video, but just know, any future one's I'll give a watch.
this has been my favorite song for a long time now and I was originally wondering if the new lyrics in English would keep the original song’s meaning but they really did. this song is one of the reasons why im still here today and i think this is still one of will’s best covers ❤
This is beautiful , you reaally have a wonderful voice and you choose perfectly the lyrics ; i was just walking in the street, listening this by chance , and I felt overwhelmed by your creation (). Thank you
YOOOO WHAT!?!?? I’m absolutely blown away by this cover. I was doubtful when I saw “rap” in the title but listening to this....just wow! Your twist as well as the way you sing with so much emotion absolutely made the cover a million times better, and now this cover is one of my favorite (and this means a lot since “Hated by life itself” is my favorite song and I’ve listened to a ton of these covers)! I happen to be an animator and I was wondering: would it be okay for me to use your cover in a short animation or animated music video? I’d credit you of course including a link back to your channel and other socials if I ever post it. If you’d prefer I don’t use your cover then I completely understand as well. Either way, I just want to say you’ve blown me away with this cover and I look forward to seeing what else you cover in the future. 😍
