Pure Emotion

Ahh! My first post of my new blog! =) I gotta start it off with my favorite J-Rock (Japanese Rock) Band -- GLAY!!!

This song is called "However" by GLAY, and it is one of my favorite songs.

Although Teru (vocal) didn't do the best job in singing this song comparing to their other performances, this is nonetheless a great performance. He was purely emotional when singing this song. And THAT is good music and good musicianship.

GLAY - However


He cried while singing and after singing this song. And one of the reason being why he cried is because of the song's content. Just to keep it short instead of posting the translation of the lyrics of the song "However", here's a summary of what the song is about:

"Its about how he made a mistake saying goodbye to his old girlfriend(?). He wasn't strong enough to say things and it was his foolishness of youth. He goes on to say if he can, he wants to live with her forever and stuff." - superhikari1982 (youtuber)

STAY TUNED! =)

*I updated, changed to another youtube video for this one as the old one has been removed by youtube. This one has cut out Teru's talking at the beginning and his nonstop crying + wiping of tears with a black towel at the end*

Great performance totally!
How often do we sing with such emotion?...
How much do we understand what we sing?...

It's also amazing how he can still hit those high notes when crying! This is a different version than the one I heard before. Starting to really like his voice.
