"Money can't buy you happiness!" Yeah, but it can buy this lady the medicine for her freaking soulmate and then they could be happy! THROW MONEY AT YOUR SCREEN
+Erza Jane Heartfillia they Both died Rin worked so much that she died and Len died at the same time because he was sick so they end up together at the ned but Both are dead;-;❤️
Rin - "If there's a day when I am not the same, not human anymore, would you still be here with me; would you still love me as you did before?" Len - "But of course; keep my promise to embrace you. Without wings, I'll love you even more." Rin - "Okay wow I came here to have a good time and I'm honestly feeling attacked right now."
idk if you need the explanation or if anyone gave it to you already but here it is - Rin used her feathers to weave these threads - they poor as fuck where do you think the material came from
@@starofwynter That’s what I got. And he loves her even more for her sacrifice. And since she used up all her feathers she may not be able to fly anymore.
I usually don't like English covers, but, God, your voices were so beautiful together, and the English lyrics were different enough to not sound like a direct translation yet stay true to the story. You, good sir and madam, have my respect. *applause*
Old Stories of Japan つるのおんがえし Tsurunoongaeshi Crane's Repaying Kindness The Fairy Crane Long ago, there was a poor young man who was burning charcoal in the mountain. It happened on a cold winter day when a light snow was falling. The young man went out to town to buy a futon with the money that he had been saving for a long time. He went down the mountain with a bouncing heart and, from within a bush at his side, there was a rustling sound. "I wonder, if there is a fox or something?" Quietly he looked into the situation, and saw a big white wing. "It's a crane. The crane is caught in a trap. Wait, wait. Now I will rescue you." The young man felt sorry for the crane, He tried to take the trap off of the leg. And then, a hunter appeared. "What are you doing. You dare to snatch my game?" The hunter glared at the young man. "Because it is miserable, can you please set it free? If not, I have money here. Wouldn't you sell the crane to me?" The young man handed the hunter the money for buying the futon. "So, don't come back again to this place." The young man said that, and set the crane free into the sky. "Kuu... (sound of crane)." The crane sang happily, and and went around in big circles over the young man's head, and dissapeared into the sky. He sent off the crane, and he had no more business to go to the town. The young man slowly returned to the mountain, the way he had come. It happened the morning of the next day. A beautiful girl who he had never seen before approached. And then, "Please make me your bride", she said. "Of course not. As you can see I am a poor charcoal maker. If I have a bride, I can not even feed her." The young man refused, but the girl said "If you will take me for your bride, no matter how poor we are I don't mind," she said like that, and came to live with the young man. The young man's life completely changed. When he woke up in the morning, there was already a warm fire burning in the fireplace. When washing his face, "Breakfast is ready," his pretty wife called. His wife knows very well the delicious food in the mountain, and prepares it well. She also keeps the inside of the house clean, and her work goes on and on. "The wife coming to my place is like a dream." The young man seems to be happy. It happened one day. "While cleaning the hut behind the house, I found a dusty loom. May I please weave? However, while I am weaving, please never look inside," his wife said, and entered the hut, and closed the door. Night and day, he heard the sound of weaving from within the hut. "Aren't you hungry? Why don't you take a little rest and eat a meal?" the young man worried, and offered his wife from outside. But, there was no reply. The young man became more and more worried. He tried to open the door to the hut several times, but he remained patient. On the fourth day, finally his wife came out from inside the hut. His wife was quite thin, and felt dizzy. He felt that she had become thin and weak, and that her neck was too long. "Inside the hut, there is cloth that I finished weaving. Please go to town and sell it. Someone will buy it at a very high price." "That doesn't matter at all. I am worried about your condition," the young man said, and his wife smiled. "Please don't worry about me. Now, hurry and please do what I said." The young man went out to town, carrying the cloth. On seeing the cloth, the storekeeper was surprised. "Great, this is wonderful. I have never seen such a cloth. I will pay you 80 ryou, no, 100 ryou. Next time if you bring more, I will buy it for 200 ryou. In front of him, 100 ryou of gold coins were piled up, the young man was so surprised that his body shook. "Finally fortune has turned to me too! When I return home, I will make her weave clothes again soon." In the pack on his back, there was the very heavy 100 ryou's money. It is money which I have never seen before. The young man's heart changed completely. When he returned to his home in the mountains, The young man's eyes brightened while, he told the story to his wife. "Just once more. Then let's go to town together, and build a big mansion, and live a funny and interesting life forever." "I want to keep our life as it is from now on, together with you. I never want to go to town and so forth" the wife quietly said. But the young man did not understand her. "You said like that, so I will weave only one more time again. Also next time until I weave the cloth, please never look in." The wife said like that, and again entered into the hut. Giii pattan gigiii pattan (sound of weaving) From inside the hut, he could hear the sound of the loom weaving. The young man didn't realize that the sound was weaker than before. The young man lay down in front of the fireplace, and drank sake while waiting. Giii pattan gigiii pattan (weaving sound) Then, even though it came to be the evening of the fourth day, the loom was still sounding. "I wonder why she is so slow." The young man stood up, and secretly opened the door of the hut, and looked inside. "Wow! What is this?" The young man was surprised and petrified. Amazingly, inside the hut there was one slender crane weaving intently. With its bill, the crane was pulling out feathers from its body one by one, and was weaving the cloth from them. "Now at last, I finished weaving. But, because you see me in this appearance, I can not stay here anymore. I am the crane that received help from you. So, take this cloth to town, and please live happily. Goodbye." Saying that the crane, painfully spread her plucked wings, "Kururuuu" she cried once and took off into the sky. "I don't even need money. I was bad. As until now, let's live together in the mountain. So, therefore, please come back." While weeping the young man, faced into the sky and kept shouting forever.
Hello Lyrratic! Are we allowed to use your cover for videos? I'd like to create an animation of this song, I will credit your cover in the beginning, it's alright if you're not comfortable with it though! :) Thank you for making a beautiful song!!
He survives in a lot. "Remote Control" "Fallin' Down" "Electric Angel" "Super Hero(He ended up in prison in this one) "Dragon Rising" "It's a Wonderful Cat Life"
I think he DID survive this one... it seems to me that she eventually bought him the medicine, but she was weakened from working so hard so he nursed her back to health.
Oh my... YING, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU WERE THE ONE WHO SANG THIS WITH HAM YEARS AGO. aaaaaaaahhh this has always been my fave English cover of this song. 🥺
This is literally the best romance song I've ever heard and "when you sing everything's beautiful" literally describes how beautiful your voices are in this video, (also hello to a fellow Lucy ^^)
I remember listening this as a kid I didn't even know the story behind the song and I always listen to this since the vocals are amazing but when I found out the story I even got more addicted to this song until now my day would not be complete without listening to this
I can't believe it's been 6 years, and I still hum this song to myself. I always forgot what song it is until I remember the lyrics, and the nostalgia just pours over.
I know that the actual story is really sad, but I don't like sad stuff, so here's a happier interpretation: So Rin is actually the crane that Len saved, yeah that's still the same. Yada yada, Len gets sick and Rin weaves with her feathers, yada yada. However, instead of at the end they both die, I'm just going to keep telling myself that Rin actually made enough money just in time to cure Len, except she grew weak since she wasn't taking care of herself. However, now Len is healthy, and so at the end he's promising that after Rin took care of him when he was weak, he'll take of her now and that she can finally rest and stop overworking herself. DON'T TELL ME DIFFERENTLY. LET ME BE HAPPY. LET ME DREEAAMMMMM ;-;
Hello, ages in the future here. I interpret it as she wove away all her feathers so she can no longer be a crane, nor weave the same fabric. That's why, even without wings, he still loves her. They do not die. They live happily.
I swear in all songs Len die. Like the only ones where he doesn't the song is sexual. Daughter of Evil. Not sexual he dies. Straight faced science girl. Sexual but he doesn't die. Len if you want to live I guess you should just be in some kind of hentai. Spice.... definitely sexual....
You think Spice is bad, you ain't seen nothing yet. 'flashbacks to the lyrics of gigantic OTN' Dang the song is catchy but the lyrics.............? Oh boy
if i was their neighbor me: your husband is sick.... oh my... *looks at her wounded hands* oh god! here! take this *hands her money for her hands and the medicine* first the medicine, then your hands girl o-o dang
If I was the person who was buying the fabric: Me: Oh god! What happened to your hands ma'am?! Your husband is sick you say!? Here take this money. I don't need it now! Go fix both of you! *cough cough* I don't really want that blood covered fabric... -hides tears-
The problem with that is their neighbors are probably all extremely poor as well. They probably didn't have much money to spare. We also don't even know if Rin was able to sell all of her cloth and I feel like she would have to sell them for very little just so someone will buy them.
I am so happy to have finally found this song again after looking for years. It's a song that reminds me of the few good memories of school and just makes me so happy finding it and listening to it again. Thank you for making this cover
Thank u sm for covering this, such a masterpiece, this will always be my fav song ever TT Im so inlove with this we actually performed (a drama) this in school (using ur cover) and got full marks! T___T
I can't believe first thing in the morning and I'm already crying (all the chills, and tears, and -snot- oh wait you didn't need to know that). OTL DIDN'T NEED TO CRY BUT I CERTAINLY NEEDED THIS IN MY LIFE. //strokes Lucy and Ham's voices. Uguuuu. ;; A;;
AHHHH over 800,000!!!!!! I've literally listened to this song trying to hit all the notes but its not easy when your range is from Rui to Meiko and all over the place........ you both did amazing and I look forward to more collabs like this!!! you two made this song that much more real to me! great job and keep up the beautiful singing!!
omg....why do you do this to me seriously?? I'm crying so hard god. I love this song too much, and BOOM I saw this in my subscription box TToTT whyyy this is so beautiful you two hit this song!! it's amazing, everything, the mix, the lyrics, the voices! this is perfection
This song makes me cry no matter how many times I listen and I think of the saying "money can't buy you happiness" maybe not everything but no matter what, it can't buy love your true love 😭😭
+NerdsWithNoLife Inc Rin (that woman) Died because she worked so much because she diden't want Len (that man that she love) to not die but when she died Len died at the same time because he was to sick so they end up togheter at the end but they are dead;-;❤️ (And if you knew this from because i only said if, if you diden't know it from before)
years later still one of my favorite songs! I've always loved this piece and the story behind it. So when I first found this piece I was ecstatic! Came on my rewatch list and still just as satisfying to this day. Such a perfect cover I love it!
This story also reminds me of a legend. Do you remember Xu Fu Or Jofuku in the Japanese name ? You should ask Japanese for him ! He is Chinese ! He is very famous in Japan and very important! They said that it was the Qin Shihuang period 2200 years ago! He went to the beach to find the elixir! Both times! In 219 BC and 210 BC finally escaped the tyrant and never returned! Choose to live at the foot of Mount Fuji and teach the Japanese a lot of culture, rice cultivation and medical knowledge. Many legends about him are scattered between the north and south of Japan. Many people say that he started Yayoi culture in Japan, it was not just a person, an ancestor, or even a god in Japanese mythology.The last time he left China He took 3,000 people to the sea and came to Japan. They were born in Japan and spread all over the country. Take the Named of Hata . Mean Qin people. Hata clan in japan also took Xu under his name Xu Fu and made his descendants like fukuzumi , fukutomi , fukuumi , Saitou ... His blood flowns in many peoples in japan , many of them are celebrities who have an influence on the history of Japan, such as Hata kawakatsu , creator of Noh Drama, Japanese Prime Minister Haneda ... So the image of Xufu in over 2000 years has never changed , it is not only a legend, And it is a symbol of kindness, peace, friendship and friendship between the two countries! It is said that there is a small town called Fujiyoshida at the foot of Mount Fuji . Xu Fu lived here until the end of his life . He brought culture and weaving and was loved by many people . After his death , Xu Fu finally became a fairy crane and Flight to the top of Mount Fuji . The fairy crane is also the reincarnation of Xu Fu and has a History of more than 1,000 years they saids its still remains to protect villagers and remind the memory of Xu Fu . After that , in order to commemorate this kind scholar , they erected a tombstone . Today, it is often called Furuzan Mausoleum ( Crane Tomb ) and also Xufu Tomb . Today, it has more than 2,000 years of weaving history and is accompanied by the touching Xufu legend. Therefore, Xufu in Fujiyoshida City has many similarities to tradition. Xu Fu en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xu_Fu Legend of Xu Fu becomes a crane at the foot of the mountain design-archive.pref.yamanashi.jp/oldtale/453.html
I started this video, heard the voice, and was instantly blown away. I've never hit the like button faster. I was looking for a good English cover of this song, and you did not disappoint. "When you sing, everything is beautiful"
Holy shit my feels are on a rollercoaster here XD ;-; This song is BEAUTIFUL and you two sung it amazingly perfect UwU I didn't like this ship before, but *_damn._* It's like my freaking OTP now.
Kaita Gene Now that you mention it yeah.... there's like some kind of guarantee that something sad is going to happen either death, dying or singing about someone who died in another song and you won't be able to listen without crying because it's just too emotional (Story of Evil) !!!!!
Everytime i listen to this song i feel like crying. Its such a beautiful song. Its soo amazing how there can be people who will love you no matter what flaws you may have
This has to be one i the most beautiful yet tragic love story's I've heard in a long time, i know the backstory so when i heard how you made the song in English i listened and shed a few tears, amazing job
Wait, so, Rin was a crane who became a human because she fell in love with Len and then Len got sick so Rin used all of her feathers to weave clothing to sell so she could get medicine for him? Someone please explain!
This song is based on a Japanese story, "The Crane Wife". There are some tellings of the original on RUclips as well, though this song only loosely follows it. :)
Why did I have to watch this at night 😭😭😭 I’m sobbing again 😭😭 I just watched to sing this for my little brother to fall asleep. But I’m JUST SAD AGAIN!!!
I just realized that (Major Yona of the Dawn spoilers) This is literally Zeno and Kaya's relationship in song form.... except instead of the man dying it's the woman and it's a Dragon instead of a crane...also only one of them dies in the end... Kaya even dies of what is likely the exact same freaking illness (probably tuberculosis) for God's sake! And now I really want someone to make an animation/AMV for that even though it would absolutely destroy me.
Absolutely beautiful!!! Both the story and your voices gave me CHILLS! Especially when you both sang your different parts at the same time, I could feel the love between the two characters and that's what made it real for me!! THANK YOU!!
The people who have disliked this was the people who was crying so much that they didn't know which one was the like button and which one was the dislike button I refuse to believe someone could hate this video!
Let me see if I got the story right. A poor couple live alone in a village and are very happy, then the husband falls ill and the wife works day and night at the loom to make enough money to save him. But after another winter he dies and all her efforts were in vain... I both love this beautiful song but hate it for making me cry.
The wife was the crane that the man saved, she fell in love and when the man got ill she pluck her feathers to weave then as you said And the man died of sickness and his wife probably died of blood loss
I have finally found this.... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS I SEARCHED SO LONG FOR THIS AND NOW I FOUND IT AND ITS AMAZING AND IM KINDA FREAKING OUT OVER HOW PERFECT IT IS. *takes deep breath* seriously though it's amazing and does the song justice.
i made the mistake of putting this on halfspeed when typing up the lyrics (because i'm a dumbbutt and didn't want to find the gdoc) and lets just say it wasn't a good idea don't do it
looping this forever how am i gonn sleep tonight lolololll

idk if you need the explanation or if anyone gave it to you already but here it is - Rin used her feathers to weave these threads - they poor as fuck where do you think the material came from
It's not that he's saying he'll love her even more without the wings, its that he's saying he'll continue to love her even without her wings.
@@starofwynter That’s what I got. And he loves her even more for her sacrifice. And since she used up all her feathers she may not be able to fly anymore.

Crane's Repaying Kindness
The Fairy Crane
Long ago, there was a poor young man who was burning charcoal in the mountain.
It happened on a cold winter day when a light snow was falling.
The young man went out to town to buy a futon with the money
that he had been saving for a long time.
He went down the mountain with a bouncing heart and,
from within a bush at his side, there was a rustling sound.
"I wonder, if there is a fox or something?"
Quietly he looked into the situation, and
saw a big white wing.
"It's a crane. The crane is caught in a trap.
Wait, wait.
Now I will rescue you."
The young man felt sorry for the crane,
He tried to take the trap off of the leg.
And then, a hunter appeared.
"What are you doing.
You dare to snatch my game?"
The hunter glared at the young man.
"Because it is miserable, can you please set it free?
If not, I have money here.
Wouldn't you sell the crane to me?"
The young man handed the hunter the money for buying the futon.
"So, don't come back again to this place."
The young man said that, and set the crane free into the sky.
"Kuu... (sound of crane)."
The crane sang happily, and
and went around in big circles over the young man's head, and
dissapeared into the sky.
He sent off the crane, and he had no more business to go to the town.
The young man slowly returned to the mountain, the way he had come.
It happened the morning of the next day.
A beautiful girl who he had never seen before approached.
And then, "Please make me your bride", she said.
"Of course not.
As you can see I am a poor charcoal maker.
If I have a bride, I can not even feed her."
The young man refused, but the girl said
"If you will take me for your bride, no matter how poor we are I don't mind,"
she said like that, and came to live with the young man.
The young man's life completely changed.
When he woke up in the morning, there was already a warm fire burning in the fireplace.
When washing his face, "Breakfast is ready," his pretty wife called.
His wife knows very well the delicious food in the mountain,
and prepares it well.
She also keeps the inside of the house clean, and her work goes on and on.
"The wife coming to my place is like a dream."
The young man seems to be happy.
It happened one day.
"While cleaning the hut behind the house, I found a dusty loom.
May I please weave?
However, while I am weaving,
please never look inside,"
his wife said, and entered the hut, and closed the door.
Night and day, he heard the sound of weaving from within the hut.
"Aren't you hungry?
Why don't you take a little rest and eat a meal?"
the young man worried, and offered his wife from outside.
But, there was no reply.
The young man became more and more worried.
He tried to open the door to the hut several times, but he remained patient.
On the fourth day, finally his wife came out from inside the hut.
His wife was quite thin, and felt dizzy.
He felt that she had become thin and weak, and that her neck was too long.
"Inside the hut, there is cloth that I finished weaving.
Please go to town and sell it.
Someone will buy it at a very high price."
"That doesn't matter at all.
I am worried about your condition,"
the young man said, and his wife smiled.
"Please don't worry about me.
Now, hurry and please do what I said."
The young man went out to town, carrying the cloth.
On seeing the cloth, the storekeeper was surprised.
"Great, this is wonderful.
I have never seen such a cloth.
I will pay you 80 ryou, no, 100 ryou.
Next time if you bring more, I will buy it for 200 ryou.
In front of him, 100 ryou of gold coins were piled up, the young man was so surprised that his body shook.
"Finally fortune has turned to me too!
When I return home, I will make her weave clothes again soon."
In the pack on his back, there was the very heavy 100 ryou's money.
It is money which I have never seen before.
The young man's heart changed completely.
When he returned to his home in the mountains,
The young man's eyes brightened while, he told the story to his wife.
"Just once more.
Then let's go to town together, and build a big mansion, and live a funny and interesting life forever."
"I want to keep our life as it is from now on, together with you.
I never want to go to town and so forth" the wife quietly said.
But the young man did not understand her.
"You said like that, so
I will weave only one more time again.
Also next time until I weave the cloth, please never look in."
The wife said like that, and again entered into the hut.
Giii pattan
gigiii pattan (sound of weaving)
From inside the hut, he could hear the sound of the loom weaving.
The young man didn't realize that the sound was weaker than before.
The young man lay down in front of the fireplace, and drank sake while waiting.
Giii pattan
gigiii pattan (weaving sound)
Then, even though it came to be the evening of the fourth day,
the loom was still sounding.
"I wonder why she is so slow."
The young man stood up, and secretly opened the door of the hut, and looked inside.
"Wow! What is this?"
The young man was surprised and petrified.
Amazingly, inside the hut there was one slender crane weaving intently.
With its bill, the crane was pulling out feathers from its body one by one, and
was weaving the cloth from them.
"Now at last, I finished weaving.
But, because you see me in this appearance,
I can not stay here anymore.
I am the crane that received help from you.
So, take this cloth to town, and please live happily.
Goodbye."
Saying that the crane,
painfully spread her plucked wings,
"Kururuuu"
she cried once and took off into the sky.
"I don't even need money.
I was bad.
As until now, let's live together in the mountain.
So, therefore, please come back."
While weeping the young man,
faced into the sky and kept shouting forever.

@@carleykizer9390 Hello! Thank you for asking for permission
Do you have a iTunes? I give my heart to you

Or at least stop making me cry
He survives in a lot. "Remote Control" "Fallin' Down" "Electric Angel" "Super Hero(He ended up in prison in this one) "Dragon Rising" "It's a Wonderful Cat Life"
+NoiseTheory
shhhhhhhhh
let us have a moment of trying to prove a point
if that wording makes sense cause im like half awake right now hi how's life
I think he DID survive this one... it seems to me that she eventually bought him the medicine, but she was weakened from working so hard so he nursed her back to health.
Or maybe Len died at the end and that was his ghost hugging her? And she knew it....
*****
Oh that's how they died?
wow...this video's gonna turn 8 years old really soon
how far we've come
happy 8 years~
Oh my... YING, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU WERE THE ONE WHO SANG THIS WITH HAM YEARS AGO.

+SirHamnet +Lyrratic omg I love this *cries and throws laptop this song was performed so well I can't believe it ohmygoshilies
Lyrratic 😂👍
One mil
I remember listening this as a kid I didn't even know the story behind the song and I always listen to this since the vocals are amazing but when I found out the story I even got more addicted to this song until now my day would not be complete without listening to this
I can't believe it's been 6 years, and I still hum this song to myself. I always forgot what song it is until I remember the lyrics, and the nostalgia just pours over.
THIS IS SO SAD :((((
PERFECT LYRICS
PERFECT VOICE
PERFECT COVER
I LOVE YOU GUYS
I know that the actual story is really sad, but I don't like sad stuff, so here's a happier interpretation:
So Rin is actually the crane that Len saved, yeah that's still the same. Yada yada, Len gets sick and Rin weaves with her feathers, yada yada. However, instead of at the end they both die, I'm just going to keep telling myself that Rin actually made enough money just in time to cure Len, except she grew weak since she wasn't taking care of herself. However, now Len is healthy, and so at the end he's promising that after Rin took care of him when he was weak, he'll take of her now and that she can finally rest and stop overworking herself.
DON'T TELL ME DIFFERENTLY. LET ME BE HAPPY. LET ME DREEAAMMMMM ;-;
iT's DiFfErEnT
I agree with you and through sheer stubbornness I refuse to believe any differently than this.
Hello, ages in the future here. I interpret it as she wove away all her feathers so she can no longer be a crane, nor weave the same fabric. That's why, even without wings, he still loves her. They do not die. They live happily.
Thank you thank you thank you for this!!!!
Is this not what happens?
I swear in all songs Len die. Like the only ones where he doesn't the song is sexual. Daughter of Evil. Not sexual he dies. Straight faced science girl. Sexual but he doesn't die. Len if you want to live I guess you should just be in some kind of hentai. Spice.... definitely sexual....
Oh wow XD
Actually, Rin dies more than Len
Yes, you may rethink your life
No, I am not sorry
Also, #LateReply
You think Spice is bad, you ain't seen nothing yet.
'flashbacks to the lyrics of gigantic OTN'
Dang the song is catchy but the lyrics.............? Oh boy
Try the Mistletoe series. Len doesn't die. Miku and Kaito do :>
Ah What A Wonderful Cats Life
Trick and Treat
Death Should Not Have Taken Thee
WHY DO I JUST FOUND THIS NOW?!
SO MUCH FEELSSS ;;;;
great job guys
+chiELamperouge CHIEEEE
+chiELamperouge ikr the feels were to strong ( strange how I didn't cry through this though)
+chiELamperouge I'm totally with you I just found this in may 2016..... WHAT HAVE I BEEN MISSING All this time so much beauty in a song* crying*
+Kitty Flow ME TOO!
ikr
2021, been listening to this for months. Still gets emotional about it.
if i was their neighbor
me: your husband is sick.... oh my... *looks at her wounded hands* oh god! here! take this *hands her money for her hands and the medicine* first the medicine, then your hands girl o-o dang
If I was the person who was buying the fabric:
Me: Oh god! What happened to your hands ma'am?! Your husband is sick you say!? Here take this money. I don't need it now! Go fix both of you! *cough cough* I don't really want that blood covered fabric... -hides tears-
DX this song is so sad!
The problem with that is their neighbors are probably all extremely poor as well. They probably didn't have much money to spare. We also don't even know if Rin was able to sell all of her cloth and I feel like she would have to sell them for very little just so someone will buy them.
quin cypher id give her all my money and food and kitties and gloves😢😢
No hate but if your gonna get rich.. Id start with the grammer... Im not the greatest speller but still o-o
hi i am back to report another milestone
200k mudda fakkaaasss
+SirHamnet you amaze me
+SirHamnet Hammie! Congrats, sorry I'm late, too busy buying figmas :/
I love this song
SirHamnet 700k now
Almost 800k
I am so happy to have finally found this song again after looking for years. It's a song that reminds me of the few good memories of school and just makes me so happy finding it and listening to it again. Thank you for making this cover
I'm so glad that this song is associated with happy memories for you
I was hooked into your new videos and didn't realise that the English cover I was obsessed with since 6th grade was actually made by you until now TT
How the hell does Ham do such an amazing male voice? I must learn...
Thank u sm for covering this, such a masterpiece, this will always be my fav song ever TT
Im so inlove with this we actually performed (a drama) this in school (using ur cover) and got full marks! T___T
Genuinely crying. This is the most heartbreaking piece of music I’ve ever heard… it’s beautiful. Bravo.
I'M NOT CRYING YOU ARE
+Misa chan SAME.
This is literally the most beautiful thing ever
i'm nOT CRYING YOU ARE
It's been 8 years and this is still one of maybe five songs that made me tear up when first hearing it
every single time i listen to this i cry like literally tears
And in a alternate timeline Len is a crazy yandere.
I can't believe first thing in the morning and I'm already crying (all the chills, and tears, and -snot- oh wait you didn't need to know that). OTL DIDN'T NEED TO CRY BUT I CERTAINLY NEEDED THIS IN MY LIFE. //strokes Lucy and Ham's voices. Uguuuu. ;; A;;
I'm pure crying no sorry not crying BALLING THATS HOW SAD IT IS😭
BTS_ARMY BTS
I've been waiting for this forever. Ham as Len... such perfection. Amazing.
AHHHH over 800,000!!!!!! I've literally listened to this song trying to hit all the notes but its not easy when your range is from Rui to Meiko and all over the place........ you both did amazing and I look forward to more collabs like this!!! you two made this song that much more real to me! great job and keep up the beautiful singing!!
IT'S SUCH A HARD SONG RIGHT GODDAMN recording this was hell but im so glad we somehow managed it
thank you so much for your kind words!!
how long has it been since i listened to this and i still love it SO much.
AAAHHHH THIS SONG AND A COVER OF IT FROM YOU AND HAM FRICK FINALLY FRICK
YA RIGHT ABOUT TIME
I FEEL SOMEWHAT GUILTY
"Keep my promise to embrace you. Without wings, I'll love you even more."
This is a great translation, I love it.
-crying quietly- Hey, who left this bowl of onions?! (Great cover! One of the best ones I've heard!)
This the first video I've ever watched of yours and I don't know why I haven't found your account up until now.
*Subscribed* :D
Cosmickat Thanks so much! Glad you liked it. :) Welcome!
Cosmickat It is also worth noting that in the final chorus those high notes singing an octave above Len's part are actually Ham singing HAHAHA
That's Fantastic LOL
Lyrratic Waaaaaaaaaaaaait. I cant tell, is ham male or female???
+Randy Follmann I think ham has an FAQ on this somewhere on her channel!
NO THEY CANT BOTH BE DEAD I WONT ACCEPT IT
They didn't, I don't think. But she thought he did.
+The Sketch possibly but from my understanding she had plucked her own feathers and bled out but there is very little evidence
+Magical kitty Ben Ben That would make sense, too. My feelz ;^;
I mean, Len dying from a sickness, and birds can't really live featherless soooo
yea ok
Wikapedia said they didn't die. Both of them.
I remember that I cried so hard when I first saw this. The music in the background was painful to listen while seeing the images,but is beautiful.
No matter how many times i'll watch it, i'll always have to cry at 4:14 T_____T
It is OK because they both survived🎼🎶🎵🎧🎤😜😝
Amira Bhola I don't think they did
+Miki Kinaku hi do you want to chat and be friends?😝pls
+Miki Kinaku hi do you want to chat and be friends?😝pls
+Miki Kinaku hi do you want to chat and be friends?😝pls
omg....why do you do this to me seriously?? I'm crying so hard god. I love this song too much, and BOOM I saw this in my subscription box TToTT whyyy this is so beautiful you two hit this song!! it's amazing, everything, the mix, the lyrics, the voices!
this is perfection
I FORGOT ABOUT THIS SONG ITS SO PRETTY AAAAA
This song makes me cry no matter how many times I listen and I think of the saying "money can't buy you happiness" maybe not everything but no matter what, it can't buy love your true love 😭😭
My god Len
Is it too much to ask that you go 1 song without dying?
childish war
True
+NerdsWithNoLife Inc Rin (that woman) Died because she worked so much because she diden't want Len (that man that she love) to not die but when she died Len died at the same time because he was to sick so they end up togheter at the end but they are dead;-;❤️ (And if you knew this from because i only said if, if you diden't know it from before)
+Tara Leann Davis I know he didn't die that's why I said childish wars
#roasted
Oh my god this is absolutely beautiful and I got MAJOR chills listening to it ;A;
forever my favourite ver of this song
Rewatching once again, still love it.
.... They got the medicine, right? .... Right?
YES BB YES THEY DID DON'T CRY EVERYTHING IS FINE
Rin did get medicine but unfortunately just when Rin comes back with the medicine Len dies :(( I crie ;((
***** DON'T LISTEN THEY BOTH SURVIIIIIIIIIVED...;-; ... I'M NOT CRYING, YOU ARE
+Torrin Owens No they both die
No, they both died.
years later still one of my favorite songs! I've always loved this piece and the story behind it. So when I first found this piece I was ecstatic! Came on my rewatch list and still just as satisfying to this day. Such a perfect cover I love it!
This story also reminds me of a legend. Do you remember Xu Fu Or Jofuku in the Japanese name ? You should ask Japanese for him ! He is Chinese ! He is very famous in Japan and very important! They said that it was the Qin Shihuang period 2200 years ago! He went to the beach to find the elixir! Both times! In 219 BC and 210 BC finally escaped the tyrant and never returned! Choose to live at the foot of Mount Fuji and teach the Japanese a lot of culture, rice cultivation and medical knowledge. Many legends about him are scattered between the north and south of Japan. Many people say that he started Yayoi culture in Japan, it was not just a person, an ancestor, or even a god in Japanese mythology.The last time he left China He took 3,000 people to the sea and came to Japan. They were born in Japan and spread all over the country. Take the Named of Hata . Mean Qin people. Hata clan in japan also took Xu under his name Xu Fu and made his descendants like fukuzumi , fukutomi , fukuumi , Saitou ... His blood flowns in many peoples in japan , many of them are celebrities who have an influence on the history of Japan, such as Hata kawakatsu , creator of Noh Drama, Japanese Prime Minister Haneda ... So the image of Xufu in over 2000 years has never changed , it is not only a legend, And it is a symbol of kindness, peace, friendship and friendship between the two countries! It is said that there is a small town called Fujiyoshida at the foot of Mount Fuji . Xu Fu lived here until the end of his life . He brought culture and weaving and was loved by many people . After his death , Xu Fu finally became a fairy crane and Flight to the top of Mount Fuji . The fairy crane is also the reincarnation of Xu Fu and has a History of more than 1,000 years they saids its still remains to protect villagers and remind the memory of Xu Fu . After that , in order to commemorate this kind scholar , they erected a tombstone . Today, it is often called Furuzan Mausoleum ( Crane Tomb ) and also Xufu Tomb . Today, it has more than 2,000 years of weaving history and is accompanied by the touching Xufu legend. Therefore, Xufu in Fujiyoshida City has many similarities to tradition.

does anyone have some toast cause this is my jam
I started this video, heard the voice, and was instantly blown away. I've never hit the like button faster. I was looking for a good English cover of this song, and you did not disappoint.
"When you sing, everything is beautiful"
Holy shit my feels are on a rollercoaster here XD ;-;
This song is BEAUTIFUL and you two sung it amazingly perfect UwU
I didn't like this ship before, but *_damn._*
It's like my freaking OTP now.
YES ALL ABOARD THE KAGAMINE TRAIN
Lyrratic
*_YAAASSS_*
Geez all the Kagamine songs are about death and dying and sadness and did I mention death.
Kaita Gene Now that you mention it yeah.... there's like some kind of guarantee that something sad is going to happen either death, dying or singing about someone who died in another song and you won't be able to listen without crying because it's just too emotional (Story of Evil) !!!!!
OMG story of evil is so sad ;~;
It has been years but I never truly recovered after hearing this cover…
me: wow i heard gr8 things about this song, lets listen
*song over*
me: *sobbing* THIS IS WHY I DON'T LEAVE MY COMFORT ZONE OF 4 SONGS
Everytime i listen to this song i feel like crying. Its such a beautiful song.
Its soo amazing how there can be people who will love you no matter what flaws you may have
this song gives me chills
This has to be one i the most beautiful yet tragic love story's I've heard in a long time, i know the backstory so when i heard how you made the song in English i listened and shed a few tears, amazing job
I love this song 😍❤️ it is very interesting
So, I came here because of Ham's awesome voice...
I was surprised to find my wish was granted with TWO awesome voices!
Wait, so, Rin was a crane who became a human because she fell in love with Len and then Len got sick so Rin used all of her feathers to weave clothing to sell so she could get medicine for him? Someone please explain!
Yep, and she overworks herself and dies along with him at the end
Plasma XP Ah, okay, thanks
I think it's just metaphorical.. she's not really a magical crane.
This song is based on a Japanese story, "The Crane Wife". There are some tellings of the original on RUclips as well, though this song only loosely follows it. :)
razzleberrycat Ahh, okay, thanks!
Why did I have to watch this at night 😭😭😭 I’m sobbing again 😭😭 I just watched to sing this for my little brother to fall asleep. But I’m JUST SAD AGAIN!!!
I just realized that
(Major Yona of the Dawn spoilers)
This is literally Zeno and Kaya's relationship in song form.... except instead of the man dying it's the woman and it's a Dragon instead of a crane...also only one of them dies in the end...
Kaya even dies of what is likely the exact same freaking illness (probably tuberculosis) for God's sake!
And now I really want someone to make an animation/AMV for that even though it would absolutely destroy me.
I just found this song. This song had me CRYING by the end…😢 damn. What a song
bro who wrote rin len stories why r they all so tragic and sad
Even years later, this shit makes me so emotional. It honestly makes me cry on the inside.
my heart cracked a little😟
Absolutely beautiful!!! Both the story and your voices gave me CHILLS! Especially when you both sang your different parts at the same time, I could feel the love between the two characters and that's what made it real for me!! THANK YOU!!
My only reaction was a pained "Ouch" as I clutched my chest because of all the feels from this song
I haven't heard this song in a while, and now that I'm listening to it again, I just;;; damn
This song has so many feels
Is it bad that I laughed at Rin's face at 2:25?
no you laugh at len coughing blood
James Rowley no its not bad, i found rins face funny to :3 it also looks like shes pooping out the bowl, even though she she dropped it
James Rowley shelooks like she has no hands
Surprised Rin meme
I literaly cried....your beautiful voice killed my heart and soul :')
From the thumbnail picture it looks like Len's trying to choke Rin.
wait
wait shhhhh-----
you're right holy turds ham what do you think you're doing
It's Baku Len, run away!
Oh my gawd it does...
K Row thanks now I can't unsee that
How Not to turn your Lenners into a Yandere: Step 1
I listen to this like every day and I always end up crying.......SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!
The people who have disliked this was the people who was crying so much that they didn't know which one was the like button and which one was the dislike button I refuse to believe someone could hate this video!
Can't believe I just found out about this cover, it was so beautiful
Let me see if I got the story right. A poor couple live alone in a village and are very happy, then the husband falls ill and the wife works day and night at the loom to make enough money to save him. But after another winter he dies and all her efforts were in vain...
I both love this beautiful song but hate it for making me cry.
The wife was the crane that the man saved, she fell in love and when the man got ill she pluck her feathers to weave
then as you said
And the man died of sickness and his wife probably died of blood loss
I'm crying like a baby child and I've listened to this song FOR A THOUSAND TIMES
THE PAIN. I'll go an contemplate my life now.
That means you're still ALIVE.
To call this song beautiful is truly an understatement. A work of art might just touch on the truth. Thank you for this masterpiece.
hey, I was just wondering if it would be possible to use this cover for a media project I am doing at college :) I understand if you don't want me to
Pretty sure we'd both be cool with this! Before we say a definitive yes, can I ask what the nature of the project is?
Sure! We have to make an animatic video of a song of our choice :) i really love this song and this cover so I wanted to do this one
Ahhh that would be so cool, honored that you thought to use this cover! :o Please share it once you're done if you're willing to, we'd love to see it!
will do :) thank you for letting me!
Is it done bro? Im interested.
So happy I got to hear my fav childhood song again 😭 can’t believe I forgot it
HOW IN THE FUCK DID ALL THESE ONION CUTTING NINJAS GET IN HERE?!? ,>~

I was literally cutting onions when watching this. I had a great excuse for my sweating eyes😭
