      I have ask. How did you get the chorus for this to be so clear? I would say it is better in clarity than the original song? Like that chorus really puts the song together.

      The songs in city pop 2 mean a lot to me. I’ve been having the hardest year of my life, for things both inside and outside my control. The “Lord Give me one more chance” line with the other singers resonates so much- this album ended up on top 5 of Spotify wrapped

    I'll never cease being impressed by how great these covers consistently are. Making a cover that rivals the original song in quality is hard as it is, let alone when doing it in a different language.
    Also that art of Taeko Onuki is amazing

  • @granthse

    I am constantly impressed that you make English covers of Japanese songs sound good. so many people try to literally translate then force words to fit into the music and it always sounds awkward but you always keep generally the same meaning of the song while still making it sound good in English. this is how its done and you are the gold standard for these covers in my opinion, for whats that worth coming from a life long japanese music lover

    The Taeko Onuki original was the song that led me down the city pop rabbit hole last Tuesday night. I have listened to that countless times since, and now I have your adaptation to add to the rotation. Your refrain captured the gospel choir sound Taeko strove for on the original. The breakdown matched the Eric Gale-esque guitar solo you'd find on a Bob James or Grover Washington Jr. song from that era (the '70s). The first "passing by" ("ima o") even felt like an homage to how "that's the time" was structured in Roberta Flack's "Feel Like Makin' Love," which Bob arranged (and covered shortly after). Anyway, thank you again.
