The Death Note musical is an underrated masterpiece. It made Misa into a character with beliefs and values, and it just made so much more sense for Rem to love her than it ever did in the anime.

I've been listening and (trying to) sing along with this over and over and now English sounds weird.

Demasiado sentimientos!sentimientos Secretos, sentimientos revelados, sentimientos burlados, sentimientos sin importancia para unos, etc. Este tema lo tiene todo, si sabes la historia, es mucho más doloroso.

Can you do "the way it ends" Japanese version for the musical? Thanks!

[@Mockingdragon]

Does this song sound like While My Guitar Gently Weeps to anyone else? That's not a knock, I've just been trying to place it LOL

[@hihi-heart]

Oh, kind of, yeah! Personally, the beginning chorus notes remind me of pre-chorus of Ariana Grande's song Problem. The parts "Someday this love will vanish" and "Head in the clouds, got no weight on my shoulders" respectively.

[@fabledgalaxies1952]

This song is about a tragic lesbian discovering her sexuality and warning a fellow lesbian with comphet about the dangers of a straight relationship.

Does anyone know what key this is in?

[@lilenwasnothere6867]

e i believe

[@honestgamestation9734]

Did this replace borrowed time?

[@LyricNear]

No they're both in the show. This song happens around when Rem first meets Misa.
