Sachi Tainaka - Saikou no Kataomoi

I just started watching Saiunkoku Monogatari (The Story of the Land of Many Coloured Clouds) and I really like the ED. Sachi Tainaka's voice is so good. She's got a 3 and a half octave voice range according to Wikipedia. The first note she struck in the song was surprising.


She sounds just as good live. Not many artists can do that.



LYRICS in ROMAJI
Itsumo sugoku jiyuu na anata wa ima
Kono ame no naka donna yume wo oikakete iru no
Dokoka de kodoku to tatakai nagara
Namida mo gaman shiterun darou

Hitori de mo daijoubu to anata mo watashi to onaji
Toomawari bakari dakedo naze ka kono michi ga suki de

Shiawase da to ka ureshii toki wa
Anata no koto wo omoidasu kara
Iro azayaka na kisetsu wa kitto
Kono omoi todokete kureru
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/sachi_tainaka/saikou_no_kataomoi.html ]
Akogare to ka suki to ka kirai da to ka
Sou iu kimochi da to wa dokoka chigaun da keredo
Anata no sono utsukushii nagare ni
Watashi mo nosete hoshii

Aimai na kotoba yori mo kantan na yakusoku yori
Hoshii no wa te no nukumori soshite futari dake no toki

Moshimo anata ga kanashii no nara
Ashita ga sukoshi mienai no nara
Tayotte hoshii watashi wa kitto
Kore kara mo anata wo omou

Shiawase da to ka ureshii toki wa
Anata no koto wo omoidasu kara
Iro azayaka na kisetsu wa kitto
Kono omoi todoketekureru


LYRICS in ENGLISH
You are always so free...
What kind of dream are you chasing in this rain?
While fighting loneliness somewhere
You seem to be holding back tears...

You are the same as me, alright albeit alone...
Even though it's a detour, why do I like this path?

The time is great and I'm happy,
Because I remember you.
This brilliantly colored season will surely
Send you these thoughts.

Longing, liking and hating
What is called 'emotion' differs everywhere...
When you are at the beautiful river,
I want to be there too.

Other than ambiguous words, other than a simple promise,
I long for your hand's warmth and time alone together.

If, in case you are sad,
In case tomorrow isn't in sight -
I want you to rely on me,
And on your feelings, after this.

The time is great and I'm happy,
Because I remember you.
This brilliantly colored season will surely
Send you these thoughts.
