I feel like writing about my favorite MM/H!P songs in some detail so from now on you’ll probably see lots of entries dedicated to a specific song, starting with this one: “Yuujou ~Kokoro no Busu ni Naranee!~” by Morning Musume Otomegumi.
Yuujou ~Kokoro no Busu ni Naranee!~ means “friendship ~I won’t become ugly on the inside.” The lyrics and translation can be found at projecthello — only the best site for H!P lyrics.
I love the positive feeling I get from this song. It’s totally a “don’t give up; go for it!” song. I can truly feel that message in the song. It’s even better that it’s a fast pop-rock song that makes you want to jump up to the beat.
There are so many great lines that I’d like to extract and post here:
- Hitori no hi mo iin da yo (Days by yourself are okay too)
- Makenee zettee makenee (I won’t lose, I definitely won’t lose)
- Kokoro no BUSU nya nara nee (I won’t become ugly on the inside)
- Bukiyou dakara iin da yo (It’s okay if you’re clumsy)
You might think H!P lyrics are cheesy but I find songs like these inspiring. Not a lot, just a little, but a little inspiration can make me smile.
Lastly, just a small trivia: Makoto is holding a book that says “Phuket” on the cover, on the cover of the “Yuujou ~Kokoro no Busu Ni Naranee!~” single. As a Thai(-American) person, I think it’s pretty neat.
