I know that's Plastic Love..."
Ah, the 80s. What a decade.
...
Um... the 2010s. Yeah. That's what I meant.
There's so much to say, and so little space. I'll try to keep it brief as I can.
I did lyrics for Plastic Love back in January for my good friend Takara (check out her amazing cover here: bit.ly/2sCGIsN) and just knew I had to sing them for myself. Such a great song. Really takes you back to a time and place you weren't even there for.
So with her blessing (and a cameo too) we set out to do a cover! It was originally just going to be clips from my vacation to Tokyo this past summer, but my editor came up with this cool idea with old Japanese TV to try and evoke the same feeling the song does. This is the result. I hope you all like it!
Plastic Love was the song to cap off the decade. Period. I don't know how to explain it, but it just... feels right, you know? Something about it is so melancholic, yet hopeful. I think that's where a lot of us are right now.
Let's make the next decade the best one yet.
'Til then!

LYRICS:
You think you’re feeding a fire
with eager kisses and slow hands...
But honey, you’re just another
no-name player in the program...
I just plan the in-between:
everything from goodbye to hello...
Pretty soon, the end will come. It always does, so
Don’t hurry!
I still remember the moment
the clocks, they lost all their meaning...
A sunrise over the night’s end...
I’m up all day in the evening...
at another discotheque...
Dance away! It’s all the same to me...
Just a little lie I’ve led to forget,
I’m sorry!
Loving me isn’t like all the others!
You’ll see, I’m a different kind of lover!
Love’s a game, no matter how much it hurts...
If I’m having fun, you’ll feel it when we’re done!
These fancy dresses and shoes are my armor!
Shining brightly, they hold me together
and keep my heart from feeling lonely...
I don’t know why or if there’s a reason...
Every guy that I’ve met ever since then...
Asks me out, but they all look just like him...
And I feel it bend... My heart starts up again!
So even if glasses slip through my fingers...
Flowing slowly, they drip down and linger...
Never ask me why I’m crying...
I close my eyes on the highway,
while in the back of a taxi...
But I can still see the lights sway,
and hear you stumble to ask me...
Even if a silent voice
whispers this, “Her kiss is cold as ice!”
You’ll just have to be the light for the night...
Don’t worry!
I’m just playing games!
I know that’s plastic love...
Dance to the plastic beat!
Another morning comes...
I’m just playing games!
I know that’s plastic love...
Dance to the plastic beat!
Another morning comes...
I’m just playing games!
I know that’s plastic love...
Dance to the plastic beat!
Another morning comes...
I’m just playing games!
I know that’s plastic love...
Dance to the plastic beat!
Another morning comes...

unique af i'm obsessed
Insanely creative way of presenting
Thank you for writing beautiful lyrics and for having me in the video! ❤
i love his voice
THIS IS SO GOOOD. Holy.
I really love these lyrics. It makes me feel like the person singing has resigned herself to being unable to change herself
This is my favorite music video. Just perfect.
I love the old school look, the clips from old japanese anime and TV shows/commercials gave this song such a retro feel! Great job!!
Turn back the channel, I was watching that!
This is the most true translation and conveyance of this song I've heard👍.
Keep it up with more Jpop from 80s/90s as honestly as you can for the sake of all of us, please.
Cool man.
I would have discovered this sooner
I'm impressed
I’ve been listening to this song on repeat recently so your cover has me real happy 😊
its interesting this is the only alternate translation ive found so far. its far more experiential and less concrete than momoki's version. i can't tell which does better in conveying that crisp hurt citypop feel
The vocal is so good!
Georgeous ! Well Done !
Best cover of the song i could find and i've been looking for months, really nice job
80 , anime?'. , " who r u people"" >∆< '
Now you know how old people feel when they watch new shows.
Omg I love plastic love song so much
This NEEDS more views.
This cover just surpassed Seasons Die One After the Other as my favorite, cover of yours!
I was waiting for this since the release of Takara's cover
Best cover. Thank you ever so much for this.
I love this cover immensely!
No matter how many translations, styles, and versions there are of this song, I can't get bored of it, or not love it as equally as the others!
Thanks immensely for this!
Your voice lends itself amazingly to Plastic Love!
And on the topic of the visuals-- those were suuuper well done as well!
I love that you've got visuals that solidify the atmosphere you're potraying in the audio!
It's not only a unique execution of the concept, but one that fits perfectly with the source!
Can't wait to see what you do in the future!
bruhh this is so good-
THE THUMBNAILLLLL
I’m in love 🦋🦋🦋🦋🥺
I love the hiding of real drama of "I close my eyes on the highway.... from the back of a taxi" That 's the level of pain I hear in reading the direct translations of the lyrics I've found. I bet its still a new experience of the drama of it specific to english
The way you presented the video really reminds me of those old TV models which had the channel number in big green numbers XD
Ahh, so nostalgic!
That TV number first time made me nostalgic for real
LOL the apple cutting ad I can’t 😂
who tf is Taku Noda 🤔
Best editor and best kitchen gun salesman
@@NABIKIM maybe a doctor also ..
Look how he shoots the apple
Takara were can I get that kitchen gun O;
Your voice is charming.i love it.❤
This is really good!
I was really hoping you'd cover this song, and man, you delivered! September, by the same artist next?
Kidding of course. But this is a real neat cover - makes me miss that old CRT tv of mine, haha.
Cool as heck
Thank you for this amazing new year's gift💖
Again another amazing cover from you. I'm always excited to hear more from you.
