    I’m just a 27 year old guy from a town called Huddersfield in the UK, stumbling on a song written by a 19 year old Japanese girl over 40 years ago. I absolutely loved this song and that’s the beauty and power of music.

      Luis Alis it's very good...wouldn't say it's unmatched because it's influenced heavily by souls and classic rock and other genres, but with a unique Japanese flavor...it's very good music but it's not a creation of its own to say it's unmatched

      @@definitelynotanAIchatbot I love it when different musical cultures mix and create something beautiful. Like holy shit, most of Americas musical tradition is a mix of European influences and African influences. And then you find these Japanese artists taking stuff like the blues and jazz and mixing it with THEIR musical history. Its so cool.

    Lyrics:
    "Get to know a lot of things,
    and also many kinds of people.
    This way your troubles and doubts will vanish",
    said someone's voice.
    If these days without doubt will come, and continue just the same,
    I would rather not know anything at all.

    "Closing your heart, that seems nice. You can do whatever you want. Honestly, just be a child.",
    said someone's voice.
    A part of me always remains in this desire,
    but my heart is neither opened nor closed.

    "What's it with these same days, I cannot stand them anymore. Please save me."
    When those times come, I love the 'me' that just tries to rise up and start walking.
    Because I want that, I shout into my heart, towards myself:
    Help me, help me, help me, help me
    (help me,...)

    "Learn about many kinds of things
    And many kinds of people.
    If you do that, your worries and doubts will both go.
    ...said someone's voice.
    If a day without doubt comes,
    If my days all became like that,
    I won't want to know anything at all.
    I've closed my heart-that's OK too, right?
    You can do as you please.
    If you put it less nicely, I'm still a child.
    ...said someone's voice.
    I want some part of me to be a child, always.
    But my
    Heart is neither opened nor closed.
    Every day it's something. It's time to quit.
    Someone help me.
    At times like that, I'm someone who
    gets up out of bed and tries to walk forward.
    I like that. So I scream
    In my heart
    To myself, I scream "Help Me'"

      "Learn about many kinds of things
      And many kinds of people.
      If you do that, your doubts and worries will go away.”
      ...said someone’s voice.
      If a day without doubt comes,

      And if every day were to become the same,
      I wouldn’t want to learn anything at all.
      “Close your heart-- that's okay, too, right?
      Do whatever you want.
      To put it less nicely, act childish. “
      ...said someone’s voice.
      I want some part of me to be a child, always.
      But my
      Heart is neither opened nor closed.
      What is it with the day-to-day, anyway? I’ve had enough.
      Will someone help me?
      At such times, I'm someone who
      gets up out of bed and tries to move on.
      That’s my preference. So I scream
      Inside my heart
      To myself, I scream "Help Me'"
      I think this translation makes the meaning a bit more clear

      Get to know a lot of things,
      and also many kinds of people.
      This way your troubles and doubts will vanish,
      said someone's voice.
      If these days without doubt will come, and continue just the same,
      I would rather not know anything at all.

      Closing your heart, that seems nice. You can do whatever you want. Honestly, just be a child.
      said someone's voice.
      A part of me always remains in this desire,
      but my heart is neither opened nor closed.

      What's it with these same days, I cannot stand them anymore. Please save me.
      When those times come, I love the 'me' that just tries to rise up and start walking.
      Because I want that, I shout into my heart, towards myself
      Help me, help me, help me, help me

    Tightrope walking (tsunawatari)
    Hako Yamasaki
    You should learn a lot of things, and know a lot of people too
    If you do, your worries and doubts will be gone
    Said someone's voice
    If a day without any doubts is coming
    If ever such a day comes
    I don’t want to know anything
    Shutting your heart away, that's also okay, do as you please
    To put it badly, you're still a child
    Said someone's voice
    Somewhere, I always want to be a child
    But my heart is neither shut nor open
    What everyday life?
    No more, just stop
    Help me
    In such times, there’s a me that finds myself getting up and doing certain things.
    I like this
    So I scream.
    Inside my heart, I'm screaming at myself:
    Help me
    What everyday life?
    No more, just stop
    Help me
    In such times, there’s a me that finds myself getting up and doing certain things.

    This is the most beautiful song i've ever heard. I've been listening to it for 2 years now. I just can't get enough. It helps me cope with life. I've been feeling really bad the last few days, I don't even have the motivation to do anything anymore. I just want to die so bad. This song strangely gives me hope, it's almost like it constantly told me to keep on fighting, that better days will come, that, one day, i'll be happy. I'm sorry, everyone. I'm not as strong as I seem to be. I'll never be strong enough to live on this planet. I feel like I'm going to do something stupid, one day, something that'll cost me my life. But for now, I'll keep fighting for better days. Thank you, Hako. I love you so much. Please, if someone ever reads this, play this at my funeral. I beg you.

    I don't understand the Japanese language... I understand FEEL and GROOVE... I'm a musician... I know what I like... And I very much like the score and especially the singing voice... Very Very Much!... Another comment mentions that Hako Yamasaki, was 19yrs of age when this was recorded .... WoW!!!

    I just randomly typed "help me" into the youtube search bar and this popped up 2nd in my recommended. Not the kind of music I listen to at all, but sure as hell incredibly interesting. Nice.

    Learn about many kinds of things
    And many kinds of people.
    If you do that, your worries and doubts will both go.
    ...said someone's voice.
    If a day without doubt comes,
    If my days all became like that,
    I won't want to know anything at all.
    I've closed my heart-that's OK too, right?
    You can do as you please.
    If you put it less nicely, I'm still a child.
    ...said someone's voice.
    I want some part of me to be a child, always.
    But my
    A heart​ is neither opened nor closed.
    Every day it's something. It's time to quit.
    Someone help me.
    At times like that, I'm someone who
    gets up out of bed and tries to walk forward.
    I like that. So I scream
    In my heart
    To myself, I scream "Help Me"

    There is masterful music out there, and the radio feeds us all this crap, artists that need seven writers to rhyme Texas with Lexus, pathetic boys who throw up on stages, old brats who should retire, hyped, pushed, shoved down our throats 24/7. I am not one who needed social media or the internet, but if we can listen to these masterful, beautiful musical Gems on youtube, songs that would never have found my ears, then yes, youtube is worth it. Thank you for uploading art on this platform!

    I just casually recognized the sample used in "Air Bnb" by Central Cee! Shout out the producer for such a quality choice!
