Incidentally, when you think literally all of Reira’s songs are supposed to be about Takumi, this seems to be about when he got with Hachi, and it broke Reira’s heart and she just feels frozen out and pushed away by him - they were extremely close and then when he starts spending all his time with Hachi, Reira is almost an afterthought - Reira is pretty much a childish nature and used to being the centre of attention with the band, she is very obviously deeply in love or infatuated with Takumi and they were best friends - it was around then that Reira started seeing Shin. It was as a distraction. “I can’t be alone right now” “Kiss my lips and maybe you can take me to your world for now” “Please make it all go away, will I ever feel myself again?” She wants to escape and not see the situation. And so much of her growing up was influenced by Takumi, like he taught her Japanese and was her only friend at school, she now doesn’t have that crutch to lean on. She feels cold and empty and wants to fill her life with distractions to fill the void he left in her. That is what I love about Nana, how all the relationships and friendships shift and change just like in real life. It’s not always happy and like people who seem the perfect fit do not always get together. Ai Yazawa has this way of understanding humans that a lot of writers don’t get. I’d compare her to Murakami in that sense.
Even if I know where you can com from, winter sleep wasn't mean to be written when Takumi is seeing Hachi since it has been said both in the anime and the manga that Reira was written Shadow of love/Trust at that moment and that is based on her relationship with Shin. But even that last fact is not entirely true since she's mostly written just to fit the fans' expectations --> "Why Japaneses like love songs that much I wanna write songs about the world's peace!". Winter sleep might probably be a part of the last album of Trapnest, "Trigger" released on March 2001 or in their new album recording in London (and again I really think she took Shin as an inspiration regarding her love life at that moment).
@Yudai it’s messed up how she treated him second best when he real life caught feelings for her, but she kept putting other guys above him until later in the show and manga.
Reira once confessed she wished she could be a singing machine. A high performance machine that never breaks down. But then she wouldn't be able to sing (with such emotion!).
I have to comment...as it is the only thing I feel is right and what I can do to show my everlasting love for the song and the artist, Olivia Lufkin, who made this song. I found this song obviously like many people through NANA back in 2006, and have been consistently listening to this ever since. Other genres in my life, favorite artists, music and pieces have always shifted...and I only really listened to other music just for the nostalgic feel. Winter sleep and almost all of the album of NANA hits deeper than nostalgia. Being an adult right now working a 9-5 job...I swear it kills me. It's soul depraving as unfortunately it's not something which I really care about or do. I feel as if i'm losing myself. the dreams of yesterday have faded, and tomorrow only brings a repeat of what i had experienced today... but randomly just randomly my youtube auto playlist took me here and it filled me with much more than nostalgia. it reunited me with my younger self who had a head with dreams as high as the sky, and a heart with emotions as deep as the sea. it speaks volume of love, a love which after growing older which I seemed to lose ...but this song, olivia lufkin, trapnest/blast, nana, and of course ai yazawa has reignited the love which I thought I had lost - the love for oneself. While we're all going through our own journeys, struggles, and adventures...we will achieve our dreams. Just not in the ways we expect - just as how most of the events happened in NANA. The characters have gone through a lot, but I always notice they never let go of their original dream which they may have during a winter sleep...they keep living. Keep living and keep on dreaming
this is so beautiful it made me cry... thank you, I was needing that so much I had no idea. I'm turning 30 in a few days and feel the same way. Hopefully I'll find my own way soon. Much love to you.
@@annepinks2 Because, if I ever do get married again; this will be where they've taken me FROM. Call it hopelessly sentimental, but I feel a kind of happiness at the idea of building a happy stage of life on the last notes of the sad, lonely, stage that preceded it.
I Listen to this song every time I cry myself to sleep . It sounds depressing but it not just my life , its Olivia's voice ... you can hear her trembling.. I really hope this song helps others into there troubles as it helped me sleep without crying anymore /:
When I hear this song, I remembered falling in love in a virtual character. Yeah it sounds stupid but hey, I really fell in love to that guy, he makes me happy and feel loved. And especially to escape the reality. I wish he could just take me into his world, I would leave everything behind. I love him yeah it sounds stupid but it's true.
Lo mismo me pasa a mi ahora mismo. Pero ahora siento que ese chico también me destrozo el corazón... y me siento muy estúpida por sentirme tan devastada al respecto pero de verdad siento algo muy especial por él...
This is what i say: The same thing happens to me right now. But now I feel that boy also broke my heart ... and I feel very stupid to feel so devastated about it but I really feel something very special for him ...
For me, this is more than just and ending. This is truly a masterpiece. Winter Sleep was love at first heard for me. Pure melancholy. As much as I love other animes endings like "waltz" by Suneohair in Honey and Clover or "stand by me" by Anna Tsuchiya in Nana and others songs that are not just "endings" but masterpiece songs. Winter Sleep from the first time I heard it and till forever will be above every other anime song (not just endings). The fact that they only use this song for like 2 episodes make Winter Sleep even more mystical. The 1 minute ending version of this song (less than the average ending length) was a perfect selection, it transmitted all the feeling of Reira. Winter Sleep is how an ending should be to be more than "just and ending"
It's been more than a decade since I first bumped into this song. And up to this moment I must say this song is meant to be sung by Olivia.. Her voice just captures the right emotion for this song.. A gem indeed.. 🥰🫧
Winter Sleep is my jam when I feel so low & depressed... Every time I remember the rejections [From my classmates in elem, to my crush's (Stupid I tell you, but I think I'll blame that to my Psych disorder), to my classmates and later my father's) faced through the years... I wish to scream this song out...
wow, this song really inspired me to get busy on my manga. i'd really hope that if my manga ever became popular enough to become an anime, this song would be in it :)
In life you make your own choices, your own story.Everybody always have challenges that you must overcome and bad memories but make those memories into good ones.And the choices you make will decide on your happiness.(what I learned watching Anime NANA)
Me too... I love her voice, and her songs are beautiful, but... Sometimes I can't remember her name... For me she is Reira. she always was, and she always will... :) This song is such amazing, it makes me cry... *-*
Quite unique... Ican truly feel the emotions that this song gives out. The one who made the video's very creative, too. I think this is the second video I admire so much. Impressive and Lovely; both the song and video. (:
I remember when I first watched NANA I was in 6th grade (11?) and I cried a whole week after watching and couldn’t let myself listen to trapnest songs cause I didn’t want to “betray” nana lol well at 23 I happily enjoy both of their music while crying in between 😅
it's still worth reading really its very good even tho its not finished yet. please don't let someone obviously not thinking of others spoil such a great anime / manga for you. i give it 5 stars ^_^
I love Olivia Lufkin and Hyde from L'arc en Ceil when it came out they may have had an affair her career was pretty much done for in Japan. Of course, it being a patriarchal society nothing happened to his career. I always think about that when I hear this song. Her music is such a treasure.
It keeps coming back to me 回憶旋繞腦中 I remember this pain 深刻傷痕仍然存在 It spreads across my eyes 清楚映在我的眼中 Everything is dull 彷彿每一件事都變單調而且模糊了 Everyone’s smiling. they’re smiling 人人臉上掛著笑容 It pushes me far far away 但是我卻被遠遠的排擠 I can’t understand 我不瞭解為什麼 Everything is blue 每一件事都是憂鬱的 Can you hear me out there? 遠方的你是否聽見我的呼喚? *(重複) Will you hold me now? Hold me now? My frozen heart 你會緊緊擁抱住我嗎?你會嗎?我已凍結的心 I’m gazing from the distance and I feel everything pass through me 我凝視著遠方,似乎我經歷了重重磨難
2021 and I'm still emotionally attached to NANA
Same
Always till the day I die I will think of NANA
So true
Big same
So i am a lot 🖤

I've said it before and I'll say it again. "Nana has taught Me more things about life than all My life combined!"
みんなが笑っている
彼らがみんな笑っているから
私は彼らの輪から遠く押し出される
私にはそのことが理解できなくて
何もかも憂鬱になる
How Shin suffered

it's filled with so much pain and feeling that crying is not enough... yet I feel it's the best trapnest song, heartbreakingly amazing!
Makes u wanna cry for no good reason. Truly powerful. Never stop hearing it.

I love Olivia Lufkin and Hyde from L'arc en Ceil when it came out they may have had an affair her career was pretty much done for in Japan. Of course, it being a patriarchal society nothing happened to his career. I always think about that when I hear this song. Her music is such a treasure.
What they had an affair ?
I Keep singing it . It stucks me in my head lol
Beautiful Lyrics
Beautiful Voice
Beautiful Song
Nana forever 💗🖤🥀💋😭🥂 2020
It keeps coming back to me
回憶旋繞腦中
I remember this pain
深刻傷痕仍然存在
It spreads across my eyes
清楚映在我的眼中
Everything is dull
彷彿每一件事都變單調而且模糊了
Everyone’s smiling. they’re smiling
人人臉上掛著笑容
It pushes me far far away
但是我卻被遠遠的排擠
I can’t understand
我不瞭解為什麼
Everything is blue
每一件事都是憂鬱的
Can you hear me out there?
遠方的你是否聽見我的呼喚?
*(重複)
Will you hold me now? Hold me now? My frozen heart
你會緊緊擁抱住我嗎?你會嗎?我已凍結的心
I’m gazing from the distance and
I feel everything pass through me
我凝視著遠方,似乎我經歷了重重磨難
I’m about to buy all of Olivia’s albums she is so talented
2019 im still freaking love this song, and finally I understand the song too
" Kiss My Lips & Maybe You Can Take Me To Your World For Now " .... The Best !!!!****
I love this song .. I always will :)
2018.............. and yet here to break my heart again :'(
This song... 🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️
Thxx for the lyrics.
