    Listen to this song with subtitles and you'll see the lyrics are a bit philosophical. Seriously, if there never was Philosophy Metal before, this is.

    (You are saying "ninjen isu" not "ningen isu" - hard 'g' in Ningen like in "get")
    I knew we'd get ya :) They are a very deep well of excellent music.. they only have 23 albums so far and they are _all_ very consistently good. Looking forward to further reactions to Ningen Isu!
    They do play this song live, and it's very well executed - I was lucky enough to see them play London in February 2020. On their first mini tour outside of Japan. They had been planning to play SXSW in the US a few months after, but covid put the kibosh on that.
    Guitar: Shinji Wajima - he's dressed as a meiji era literary master. I know you hate lyrics, but a lot of their songs have inspirations from classic literature and myths. The band name is taken from a short horror story by Edogawa Ranpo, literally meaning "human chair". He builds a lot of his own guitar pedals, too
    Bass: Kenichi Suzuki - dressed as a demonic monk. He also is the vocalist for a lot of songs
    Drums: Nobu Nakajima - dressed as a classic yakuza style teddy boy. Also sometimes does vocals on songs
    PS: been waiting for this song to hit the channel for 2 years, so glad you got there :D

    Great band. This is their signature song. I watched many reactions and I loved all of them. I find it strange how many people call them old. They are about 5 years younger than Metallica and not too many people call them old. Anyway here's a link to a live version if you want ua-cam.com/video/MMfTUasxuyA/v-deo.html

    This was basically "Things DH doesn't like, but ALL of it done the way that DH actually DOES like, the song, the musical, the play, on Ice" and it was a treat to see you explaining everything.

    For everyone here in English.
    「Heartless Scat」
    If you, Holy Angels, do exist in this universe,
    Will you bless me on the cheeks?
    With my painful effort never paid off.
    I've just been standing in the shadow,
    Will the day come someday when I can fly high in the sky?
    Will the day come when I can see the sun?
    Tell me, Holy Angels.

    If you, Divine Goddess, are staying hidden somewhere,
    Why don't you smile at me on my forehead?
    I've never tasted the nectar of victory.
    I’ve never succeeded in love.
    Will the day come when I can get intoxicated by the victory?
    Will the day come when I can embrace love?
    Tell me, Divine Goddess.

    Countless stars are twinkling in the sky.
    Every one of us is under them,
    with a thousand wishes in each heart.
    Lululu Lululu…
    If you, Lord Buddha, really exist in some place,
    Please have mercy on me, too.
    Having nothing precious in my possession,
    Desolated,
    Isolated,
    I've been living my life with a series of failures.
    Will the day come when I can totally be satisfied?
    Will the day come when my dreams come true?
    Tell me, Lord Buddha.

    Shine a light on tomorrow for all

    This is indeed a cornerstone song and it is the song that made them "explode" in the west. They've been playing since 87 and are still going strong. The song lyrics can actually be compared or work as a metaphor to their journey as musicians.

    They are an incredible band. Many of their lyrics speaks about Buddist philosophy, in this one about overcoming through insistence after defeat.

    If You had the English subtitle on You got the message. It is a sort of prayer for success. This video got viral globally 2019. And that made them going overseas for their first time in early 2020. 2 gigs in Germany and 1 in London UK, heading for USA....and then Covid came along so they had to go home to Japan. Guitarist is born 1965, Bassplayer 1966 ( I think). Drummer a couple years younger. Old men can still do great tunes *-) I love this band! After over 30 years of playing in the same band, they know their craft!

    As others have said, there are various live version on UA-cam. Some that last longer. For me, it is one of those songs that seeing and hearing it live must be wonderful. Watching a live, longer version of Heartless Scat on a small screen, not so.
    Thank you for your analysis and explanations of chordal structure.
    Ningen Isu, are welcome to install my ceiling fan, anytime. 🤣
    Who would of thought, another excellent Japanese band! 🤣😎

      The lead singer actually pronounced it ninjen during the song. Maybe it's an accent thing (like how Southerners talk different from New Yorkers).

    • @Wagoo
      @Wagoo Рік тому +2

      ​@@danbuter at what timestamp are you hearing this? "Ningen" is not said anywhere in the lyrics for this song. Sorry, but you are mistaken.. Japan doesn't have accents in the same way as in America. Japanese letter pronunciation is very consistent. The way regional accents are done is more with variations in words and phrasing, than how each letter is pronounced. Cheers

    I had a response to "Spoonman" but I might have used a wrong word and got taken down. Anyhow Mrs. H did a great job and she deserves all the applaud she's getting. She has never been that confidence before. I had a lt more and I forget. Congrats for 40K.

    Waving to Manda and Baragon 👋 You mentioned scores of 1s and 2s… wondering now what your lowest score ever is. I’d like to watch that! Anyway, these guys are great… the lyrics of this song (which I know you don’t care about) are great too… just mentioning it. Edit: confession: I hit like at the beginning.
