The Legendary Six Nine - Suna no Machi lyrics and translation

Words: Ruka, Twigy
Music: Ruka

sayounara wa tsurai yo, mayonaka wa kura sugiru, kimi nashi da wa
tomaranai omoi wa, go kara ja oso sugiru, iminai sa
tada naranai ai mo, kanawa nakya meikyuu, kirinai sa
mada nagakuitai yo, kamawa nakya, STAY TUNE, KICK IT OUT NOW YO
Goodbyes are painful, it's too dark at midnight, without you
The desire disappears, and it's return is too slow, there is no meaning
Love isn't becoming anything, it's a puzzle that won't complete, it's unlimited
It's a long and painful process, but I don't care, STAY TUNE, KICK IT OUT NOW YO

aishiteru, THINKING OF YOU, BABY ichi nichi chuu zutto
aishiteru, kimi wo ude ni hibiki au yo
I love you, THINKING OF YOU, BABY all day long always
I love you, from in my arms you echo


kawaranai, sora wa fukai kuro
shimeru yo kaze ga hou wo surinuketeku
imanimo, oto mo naku kuzure sou na suna no machi
shibarare ugokenai
It doesn't change, the heavens are a deep black
The evening wind presses against my cheeks
At any moment, the town of sand will silently collapse
I can't move when I'm tied up


kako no yume, iro no aru sekai de
futari kakageta, eien no mirai wa
itsushika iroasete, senakaawase
sorezore no sekai wo utsushiteta
A past dream, a world with color
And the eternal future we created
Gradually fading away, back to back
We represent each world

mono kuroumu ni kazarareta, futari no sayounara no hi wa
ima mo kawaru koto naku warai tsuzuketeru
mou ni do to wa modorenai toshite mo, aishiteru kara
subete no kioku tachi wo kakaete
ne?
sukoshi dake saki ni mukau kara, sakura chiru ano michi de mata aou
We colored what we couldn't change, the day of our farewell
Even now, without changing, I'll keep smiling
Even if you never come back, because I love you
I have all those memories
right?
So I'll go a little early, to meet you again on that road where cherry blossoms scatter.

mono kuroumu ni kazarareta, futari no sayounara no hi wa
ima mo kawaru koto naku warai tsuzuketeru
mou ni do to wa modorenai toshite mo, aishiteru kara
subete no kioku tachi wo kakaete
ne?
sukoshi dake saki ni mukau kara, sakura chiru ano michi de mata aou
We colored what we couldn't change, the day of our farewell
Even now, without changing, I'll keep smiling
Even if you never come back, because I love you
I have all those memories
right?
So I'll go a little early, to meet you again on that road where cherry blossoms scatter.


sakura chiru ano michi de mata aou
to meet you again on that road where cherry blossoms scatter

kako kara no FLIGHT, nazo darake fuka sugiru kimi nara de wa
tomonawanai toi wo, nazoru wake yoru ga sugiru, ima waraeba
sokonawanai koi mo, matou dake eikyuu hasamaretai
soko ga wana koi yo, doko kara mo TAKE YOU, yamanai sa
A flight from the past, a mystery that's too deep, it's you
No questions come with it, but answers will come through the night, if I smile now
And the love I didn't lose, it'll be eternal, if I wear it forever
A trap is there, from where I take you, and it doesn't stop

aishiteru, THINKING OF YOU, BABY ichi nichi chuu zutto
aishiteru, kimi wo ude ni hibiki aeba
I love you, THINKING OF YOU, BABY all day long always
I love you, if from in my arms you echo it

The Legendary Six Nine - CRUEL lyrics and translation

Words: The LEGENDARY SIX NINE
Music: RUKA


Ouch!
It's about time... The Legendary Six Nine
It's your gentlemen: TWIGY, RUKA, HAKUEI
Let's Go!

sora wo kakushita souon, yami ni mau G kyuu no action
mimi wo tsukisasu haitoun, kogetsuita rhythm wo zoutou
We will take you to the fuck'n party
kuse ni naru inran na music
We will take you to the fuck'n party
saa, oide, oni nara koko da
The noise fills the sky, the G-class action dancing in the dark
A high tone strikes my ear, I give away things to the rhythm that I won't get back
We will take you to the fuck'n party
This dirty music is becoming a habit
We will take you to the fuck'n party
Well, if I'm a demon anywhere, it's right here

GET DOWN agaru ka satoshi manu yami, kachi wareru mujina ra, tashinamu fushi warau
harara kuchiru hana furiharae, gen waru CUE to ROCK majiwarasu
ZONE dasshi kurae, kono kiai, dou tasshitai
GET DOWN, rising and awakening in the darkness, breaking through like a badger, I enjoy cutting things down
I shake out the rotting flower, so that cue and rock intersect
I try to escape this zone, this mood, but I want it so much

kakumeion ga hirai, haneru kodou wo dasshu, ubaiai
sendousha wa aimai, hameru rojou osu, kiba mukaiai
not kyouzon no chikai, toki wa kita ima, kuro ni nuritsubuse
The sound of revolution rushes in, I recapture the pulsing beat, I bring it to me
The rebel is uncertain, but persistant, fangs revealed
It's not an oath of harmony, since I'm here now, I'm gonna paint it all black

sakihokoru ka? chiri taeru ka? kurikaeshi
kareteyuku dake nara, kotoba ya koe wa iranai
kono omoi wo yaiba ni shite, kiri tsuketa
arifureta hana nado, mezasu sekai ni wa iranai
zettai no chikara wo te ni
saikou ni kyou eru yoru wo
Is it in full bloom? Is it scattered and fading? Repeat
If it's just gonna whither and die, then we don't need words or voices anyway
This desire is a blade, I'm using it to cut
Common flowers, are not the goal of this world
My hand has the absolute power
to make this night chaotic

get it get it to get get to get it come on
get it get it to get get to get it girls
get it get it to get get to get it you can
get it get it to get get to get it
get it get it to get get to get it girls

hada wo hai mawaru ai on, kurikaesu masturbation
haretsu sunzen no blood voice, kyokugen no crush beat bousou
We will take you to the fuck'n party
hiketobu koukotsu no melody
We will take you to the fuck'n party
saa oide, kakushin wa koko da
The sounds of love crawl over my skin, repeated masturbation
Just before the outburst of the blood voice, limit of crush beat crazy idea
We will take you to the fuck'n party
The ecstatic melody breaks open and rushes out
We will take you to the fuck'n party
Oh, look, conviction is here

GET DOWN, wakaru ka damaruba ni, ajiwaei jigen
moijri au fuminarasu, karada yojiru yachuu wa, tsumi na ba'
arawasu chuu todoku, majinara, donpisha kurae
sono mirai, mou tasshiteru
GET DOWN, whether or not you understand this place which grows silent, taste this new dimension
Stamp out the imitation, bodies are distorted at midnight, the punishment for my crime
The sky's revealed, really, this appetite's just right
I've already reached the future

kakumeion ga hirai, haneru kodou wo dasshu, ubaiai
sendousha wa aimai, hameru rojou osu, kiba mukaiai
not kyouzon no chikai, toki wa kita ima, kuro ni nuritsubuse
The sound of revolution rushes in, I recapture the pulsing beat, I bring it to me
The rebel is uncertain, but persistant, fangs revealed
It's not an oath of harmony, since I'm here now, I'm gonna paint it all black


sakimidarete, kakimidashite, ai wo hake
afureru shunkan no, kono kaikan ni oborero
motto hayaku, motto fukaku, kiri tsuketa
arifureta itami wa, zecchou no hana wo sakasenai
zettai no shigeki ni you
saikou ni midara na yoru wo
It's blooming all over, I've disturbed it, vomited love
The moment it overflows, I indulge in the pleasure
It's faster, deeper, I use my blade to cut it
It's a common pain, I won't make the tallest flower bloom
I'm intoxicated by the complete stimulation
Of this really dirty night


get it get it to get get to get it come on
get it get it to get get to get it girls
get it get it to get get to get it you can
get it get it to get get to get it
get it get it to get get to get it girls

GET DOWN, odori na nobori na, nozou you ni sori na,
tajiroga zu, modori au, hagata tsukeru, saisho kara
koko ni aru, hadaka no juu wa soku tobi au (Pow!)
kotowacchimae, sono shihai, dou dasshitai?
GET DOWN, it's a dance that climbs upward, wanna break its form
I won't hesitate to return, I left a bite mark at the start
Here it is, the naked gun fires directly (Pow!)
Resisting, those rules, how do I want to escape?


kakumeion ga hirai, haneru kodou wo dasshu, ubaiai
sendousha wa aimai, hameru rojou osu, kiba mukaiai
not kyouzon no chikai, toki wa kita ima, kuro ni nuritsubuse
The sound of revolution rushes in, I recapture the pulsing beat, I bring it to me
The rebel is uncertain, but persistant, fangs revealed
It's not an oath of harmony, since I'm here now, I'm gonna paint it all black


sakihokoru ka? chiritaeru ka? kurikaeshi
kareteyuku dake nara, kotoba ya koe wa iranai
kono omoi wo wa ni shite, kiri tsuketa
arifureta hana nado, mezasu sekai ni wa iranai
zettai no ruupu de odore
saikou ni CRUEL yoru ni
Is it in full bloom? Is it scattered and fading? Repeat
If it's just gonna whither and die, then we don't need words or voices anyway
This desire is a blade, I'm using it to cut
Common flowers, are not the goal of this world
Dancing in a continuous loop
On this extremely cruel night

Yeah! The Legendary Six Nine
We keep it comin', all right?
Kick it now yo…

The LEGENDARY SIX NINE, Ruka's solo project X3



On the eve of Nightmare's 10th anniversary, the drummer RUKA began his own solo project called "The LEGENDARY SIX NINE", where the line-up of musicians will change every time. He started this project because he felt there were some sounds he created that wasn't of Nightmare's voice, but of his own. The first round-up of musician collaborations were with TWIGY, a Japanese hip-hop artist, and HAKUEI from Penicillin. Their first single, "CRUEL" released on March 24th, featuring 3 new songs.

The single's highest rank was #16 on the Oricon charts. The project participated in Beat Shuffle's Live Side 2010 Spring. The supporting musicians were Ni~ya from Nightmare on bass, Shinobu from Creature Creature and Takayama on guitars, TWIGY and Hakuei on vocals, and RUKA on drums.

It's Ruka~

Sendai Kamotsu





Sendai Kamotsu (仙台貨物) is a side project of the visual rock band Nightmare . It consists of entirely the same members, but they are so different compared to their usual image that one may think them a different assemblage of musicians altogether. Sendai Kamotsu (which is the name of Nightmare 's fanclub as well) was formed in 2001, before Nightmare became successful. They started their activities in 2002. Sendai Kamotsu took part in the first Cannonball omnibus and toured with Doremidan and Shulla.

Their rallying cry is that they love 'Gay People'. On September 5th, 2009, they announced that the band will be going on a break due to the company going bankrupt from the recession of the economy. The band will have a show at the end of October in Sendai and at Nippon Budokan on November 5th titled "Sendai Kamotsu ~FOREVER~." They will be releasing their new album, "Deko" on October 28th.

Nightmare/Naitomea/ナイトメア



Nightmare (ナイトメア, Naitomea) is an influential visual kei band from Japan. They enjoyed mainstream success with the inclusion of "the WORLD" in the anime series "Death Note" and are considered a major influence in the ongoing visual kei scene.

History
Nightmare was started in January 2000 by Sakito and Hitsugi while most of the members were still in high school. Soon, Ni~ya was invited by Sakito, Yomi by Hitsugi, and Zannin joined after he heard his classmates were forming a band. They were all influenced by either X Japan or Luna Sea in some form or other.

Just as the band began getting more recognition at live houses and small concerts in the Sendai region, Zannin left the band for unknown reasons. Eventually, Ruka (formerly Luinspear) joined the band as a support member at first, but became the permanent drummer after a short time. Their line-up hasn't changed since.

Their major label debut was in 2003 with their single -Believe-. Three months after their debut, they released a three A-side single, Akane/Hate/Over, a first time for any band to release any single with three A-side tracks. In December 2003, they had their first tour along with their first album release Ultimate Circus. Following their release was a tour named after the album, performing songs from "Ultimate Circus" as well as songs from their indies era.

In 2004 Nightmare released three singles; Varuna, Tokyo Shounen, and Cyan; as well as another full album, Libido. Nightmare once more toured around Japan under the name "Tour CPU 2004". From 2005 to 2006, Nightmare continued working, releasing more singles and their third full length album in 2006, Anima, for which the support tour, [Anima]lism, completely sold out. In 2006 they performed a live at NHK Hall titled "Gianism Tsu."

With three albums and several tours under their belt, Nightmare released a series of "greatest hits" albums. Later on that year, they released their ninth single since their debut titled The World/Alumina. These two songs were used as the first opening and ending themes for the anime series Death Note, respectively, spanning the first nineteen episodes. On 27 February 2007, they released their fourth album, the WORLD Ruler. Following the album release was "The World Ruler" three month tour all around Japan. After finishing their tour for barely a month, their rock ballad single was released on June 6, 2007 titled Raison d'Etre. It was the opening theme song to the anime Claymore.

In June 2007, they had a three-day concert event titled "the WORLD RULER ENCORE." On September 23, 2007, they performed at Nippon Budokan for the very first time. The concert was called "Far East Symphony ~the FIVE STARS NIGHT~" and tickets were all sold out within two weeks. Later in 2007, they released two more singles, titled 「このは」("Leaf") on October 3, 2007; the other titled DIRTY, released on November 7, 2007.

To wrap up the year of 2007, they had another tour called "DIRTY Influence" in selected cities in Japan in December 2007.
