"JANAKUTE" // "You've got it wrong!"

Jul 11, 2011 04:24

I love this song to bits. Both the lyrics and arrangement are so much fun and well suited to Aiba's voice. I think understanding the lyrics makes it 100% more enjoyable so I've decided to translate it.

It's a very sweet song about a problem so many guys have.... Aiba's fallen into the "best friend trap" with a girl he likes... and she's showering ( Read more... )

translation: lyrics, group: arashi, person: aiba masaki

awww aiba <3

aiba mentioned in a magazine interview that the meaning and the beat of this song seems to be off XD and it is, indeed XD

I've not read the interview... but that's so true! The contrast struck me too - upbeat arrangement/downbeat lyrics.

I think that kind of makes it more sweet though. It's very "Aiba" to stay upbeat even if he's having a tough time (with love, life, work, whatever!).
