Omg finally a good cover of this song!!!! I swear to god your cover is miles better than even the official English stage version, this is how L is supposed to sound!!
I love that his voice gives such a musical vibe. Like I know he's singing a musical but some people don't sound like a musical, and he does. His voice is so lovely.
Lyrics. Every fact that I thought I knew, is subverting me deserting me. Every truth I was sure was true is on shakey ground Has come unwound. What if the things I see are not as they appear? Are impossible yet clear? how can I deny it? Always only believed what was right infront of me What I could see Shinigami are real because it's the only way The only way. When all other explanations, really don't explain No matter how insane You are left with only The cold hard truth, can't shut it down You can't change it You can't turn it off or turn it 'round Can't rearrange it The cold hard truth, a ragged scar To remind you, never forget The way things are. I won't let who I used to be How I used to think Get me out of sync. I'll turn into a different me, not so cynical. Not so clinical. Light is willing to risk it all He's definitely all the odds. If I must I'll fight the gods Till our war is over The cold hard truth can't lock it out You can't change it True or false no shadow of a doubt Can't rearrange it The cold hard truth is my north star So I know I'll live and I'll die The way things are. Frame by frame, I see this movie in black and white. Shot by shot Minute by minute. Just me and Light! The cold hard truth, the way things are I can't change it Even when the truth seems to bizarre I can't change it! The cold hard truth is my north star So no mater what he might try Shake the heavens, let him shatter the sky I know we will both live and die The way things are! (Thanks for making this! Please if you get the time, do make a reprise of this song. Good day ^^)
Good that you have relaxed your vocal chords. You can really hear that your voice isn't strained. (I did mention it on the first read through.) This is a really good cover for The Way Things Are.
Thank you! I tried really hard to open up and take your advice! Are you interested in singing a part in one of the songs im working on recording? (Where Is The Justice Reprise, Mortals and Fools Reprise)?
@@jakecoz absolutely, that would be cool. If I get to sing Ryuk in Mortals and Fools😆😆 since I played him. Recently I have struggled with female parts. But could always try😝
@@izzycassiopeia8450 That would be great! If you want to send me some material of you singing (You could record it or send me something you have from the past) I'll give you my discord. I'm asking for a little recording or something from everyone for the sake of making it fair, since there are a few people interested.
I really like this version, probably the best I've seen and sounds most natural. However, the Japanese had a part where L talks about how Shinigami don't kill with reason, only humans do and something like that. I thought that was pretty significant and am sad to see it not in this version.
From other people, the OG person who voice L in the musical did not knew this song exist. So I assume that the song was written after the English recording was made or thought it was not need for the intersts to get money into the product. Hope that after the London show, we get something over here that is better
@@LaurenLD0no the entirety of the original music was written in english but certain parts werent made public. the lyrics for "the way things are" were available though, we just never got a recording in an official capacity. this song does indeed exist in the london/uk ver of the musical in english

I'm so happy i recently got back into this musical, only to find someone has FINALLY translated what we've been missing. Thank you for this!
THIS IS SO PERFECT. YOUR ARE SO TALENTED AND INCREDIBLE. YOUR VOICE IS SO STRONG, AND IT SUIT HIM PERFECTLY. AMAZING WORK!!! ❤❤
Yooooooo “I know we’ll both live and die the way things are” and then they’re both killed by Shinigami. Beautiful, amazing, chef’s kiss.
Lyrics.
Every fact that I thought I knew, is subverting me
deserting me.
Every truth I was sure was true is on shakey ground
Has come unwound.
What if the things I see are not as they appear?
Are impossible yet clear?
how can I deny it?
Always only believed what was right infront of me
What I could see
Shinigami are real because it's the only way
The only way.
When all other explanations, really don't explain
No matter how insane
You are left with only
The cold hard truth, can't shut it down
You can't change it
You can't turn it off or turn it 'round
Can't rearrange it
The cold hard truth, a ragged scar
To remind you, never forget
The way things are.
I won't let who I used to be
How I used to think
Get me out of sync.
I'll turn into a different me, not so cynical.
Not so clinical.
Light is willing to risk it all
He's definitely all the odds.
If I must I'll fight the gods
Till our war is over
The cold hard truth can't lock it out
You can't change it
True or false no shadow of a doubt
Can't rearrange it
The cold hard truth is my north star
So I know I'll live and I'll die
The way things are.
Frame by frame, I see this movie in black and white.
Shot by shot
Minute by minute.
Just me and Light!
The cold hard truth, the way things are
I can't change it
Even when the truth seems to bizarre
I can't change it!
The cold hard truth is my north star
So no mater what he might try
Shake the heavens, let him shatter the sky
I know we will both live and die
The way things are!

@@jakecoz that’s great. Yeah, I’ll see if i can find something. Otherwise ill just re-record☺️
@@jakecoz send me the link and ill fix it for you☺️
Keep coming back, obsessed with how fitting this hauntingly fantastic track woulda been for the original production. Stay awesome 🤙🛹

Do you have any idea when that is? I'd love to add it!
2 years later and we’re finally getting a studio recording thanks to the West End Cast!
Something tells me the official translators were Team Kira, leaving out L's banger solo like this 🤨

What's this, it doesn't seem t be part of the normal Musical (?)
It's one of the songs that was never translated to english
