Here's a cover of the Cowboy Bebop ED I did last year but didn't get to do anything with it until recently. I commissioned a really talented musician (Mihai) on Newgrounds to recreate the instrumental for me. He did an awesome job! My buddy Merr wrote these incredible lyrics, and of course I wanna give a big thanks to Y. Chang for doing the dirty work on the editing, and Nana for doing the harmonies for me. I'm really happy with the way this all turned out, and I hope you enjoy it to!
**NOTE: I won't be giving out the instrumental to anyone.**

Lyrics:
Too late to let you know, what you mean to me
If I cried I'd only make you believe I was happy
I've got to let you go, and my heart, it aches
But it's worth it, 'cause I swear to god, you're a mistake
Know there could be a day, when the pain will fade
But a part of me is lookin' for you, back on yesterday
I've got to get away, 'cause my heart, it burns
And I know if I keep stickin' around, I won't ever learn
Don't wanna cry
'Cause, baby, I
Can feel freedom when they play
The real folk blues
I need the pain
My unhappiness is proof I'm not insane
'Cause when I'm close to you
I swear, I could die
Need to live my life, yeah, live like I'm alive
And it's a lonely road
Good luck and goodbye
You know I would kill for a full length version right?
"My unhappiness is proof I'm not insane." These lyrics are better than I was expecting. This whole cover is. I'm only disappointed there isn't a full version.
You're gonna carry that weight
I want to thank you, Sapphire, for making this cover. Recently, a friend of mine passed away, and Cowboy Bebop was his all-time favorite anime. Incidentally, the English lyrics for The Real Folk Blues you used and the way you performed the vocals for it really conveyed how I was feeling while mourning him -- almost precisely. You're incredibly talented, and I wanted you to know that this song helped me deal with the pain over losing a good friend of mine. So, once again: thank you.
See you space cowboy...
9 years and I still want a full version
This song explains someone breaking away from an obvious toxic relationship.
See you someplace, somewhere...
Why no full version? T_T
This song is VERY sentimental to me. Me and my father would watch Cowboy Bebop at night when I was younger and I would love the ending Cause it reminded me of our time together and I could finally fall asleep on his chest I remember it like yesterday
"I'm not going there to die.
"My unhappiness is proof I'm not insane."
When you got to the part, "The Real FOOOOOOLK Bluuueeess" you hit it perfectly.
"My unhappiness is proof that I'm not insane"
"My unhappiness is proof I'm not insane."
"and when I'm close to you - I swear I could die"
Too late to let you know, what you mean to me
"I need the pain, my unhappiness is proof I'm not insane", such a good lyric
The old man sits down, setting his glass to the side.
I clicked this expecting cringeworthy fan attempts that are shit compared to the original concepts.
