Vocaloid track of the Whenever I Feel Like It 11


"Is there happiness here? As if being in a dream, I'm aimlessly eager for the one scenery you sought."


The abstraction of today's Vocaloid song makes understanding it very difficult. It's one of those songs that has an individual meaning for whoever hears it. But sasakure.UK (composer) does an excellent job making the arrangement equally complex and enjoyable. Seriously, why don't these guys get paid the big bucks?

Japanese legend is rife with "things that bring happiness." Heck, add "shiawase no" before anything and it's the [blank] that brings happiness. "Fleetingly Eternal Burning Bird" is [partly] about the "shiawase no tori," or the bird that brings happiness to the one who catches it. But would a bird of happiness really be happy to be locked up in a cage? This contradiction proves that there really is no "bird of happiness"... In a broader sense, this song questions the search for happiness.

Depressing? Heck no. At least you get to enjoy an equally intriguingly dark and sophisticated 3DPV. A very interesting portrayal of an entire world made of crystals. If you're not into all that stuff then try to discern Miku's voice from Luka's. It's harder than you think, this song features "Hatsune Miku Append," a new version of Vocaloid that provides 6 archtypal voices for Miku, one of which is called "Dark." Strangely enough, it sounds almost exactly like Luka.

Anyway, enjoy!
