Video above is “Winter Story” from the anime “Given”. It’s a boys love anime that features a male vocalist whose boyfriend committed suicide.
As a dmab person whose boyfriend committed suicide, I obviously got very emotional over this.
It’s in Japanese above, of course, but the video has an English translation. I listened to a couple English covers, but none really vibed with me. So I felt it was time to pull out my old lyric-tweaking skills and make a. Well a me cover. So, yeah, this is about my experience, based heavily on the current lyrics but definitely a far cry from being a direct translation. I wanted to focus on keeping the rhythm more than the words.
I’d love to do a cover of this eventually, but singing is not my strong suit so if anyone who can actually sing wants to give this a try, that would be incredible.
recently when im tempted to say ‘i’m gonna kill myself’ i try to correct it into saying “im gonna walk into the river and become a trout” or some other form of that. this is my new thing
btw this has graduated into me just saying “the trout population will be affected” and then not elaborating
you finally confess your attraction to the hot priest and he’s like “oh darling, I thought you’d never ask” and proceeds to bite your neck and turn you into another catholic priest
