I am an invisible person! Tokyo Jihen's "Invisible Person" makes my heart transparent so I can stay honest | The beauty of Ringo Sheena's lyrics! | A song recommended for ADHD, HSP, INFP, and INTP!
I was thinking about various things last time and writing them down.
It is difficult to keep being honest.
Honest people are often used,
mocked, and rarely gain any advantage.
Sometimes you are in an environment that doesn't allow you to be honest,
or you are targeted by people who won't allow it,
or you are resented or hated.
That is why everyone stops being honest.
They get dirty, blackened, cunning, and twisted.
That might be a way of life, but
when I was in junior high school,
human relationships became complicated,
and it was a process of everyone becoming an adult.
In that process, both the unpleasant and good parts of my friends changed, and I changed within myself too.
I don't know if it was growth, but my heart hurt.
Maybe it was a growth spurt for my heart.
It was very sad to feel that something pure and transparent was turning into muddy water and getting dirty, feeling like I had been tainted.
But like a spring, even if it looked like muddy water at the place I saw it then,
after passing through various environments,
it was properly filtered and became transparent and clean again.
Ever since I thought I had become dirty,
I thought that once you became dirty, you would just get dirtier and rot.
There are bad changes and good changes.
It's obvious, but
sometimes I think too negatively.
It seems like I'm balancing things well, but I'm leaning,
or the foundation is strange,
or I realize I'm leaning on something.
It's important to look at yourself again.
While writing this, as usual,
I listen to various favorite Tokyo Jihen songs depending on my mood,
and suddenly I thought, 'Oh, is that what it means...!'
I had been listening to the lyrics and thinking this, but it could also be taken this way...
It felt like a puzzle piece clicking perfectly into place.
Invisible Person Tokyo Jihen I want to write out all the lyrics carefully, but there might be issues, so I'll just excerpt them.
I am an invisible person, I will surely become transparent, those who are the same will understand.
...At first, I thought this was a song about a person who is worried because they have no distinguishing features and are an invisible person.
But somehow it didn't feel right.
But after listening for many years, I finally thought, maybe it's written about a person with a straight, honest, transparent, and beautiful heart
as an 'invisible person', and when I listened to it again, all the lyrics made sense!
But I also wanted to listen to it when I was tired of human relationships and wanted to become air, or when I wanted to lose my presence and not be bothered by anyone, or when I wanted to disappear, or when I played the people-pleaser and lost myself. So I want to recommend it to people who are tired of that too!
If it's people or things I like, there are more than enough, various vivid things. I want to respond properly with a transparent feeling.
...This song seems to be about her son; it's a song to encourage her son who was being bullied.
I've had similar experiences, so it resonates and makes me cry.
Don't just focus on the unpleasant things; around you, the sky, the sea, flowers, birds, dogs, cats, and the four seasons are beautiful, and there are many other things, and everyone must like at least one of them, and they are in places you can see immediately, so you have a wide selection. Please focus on the things you like.
It might be a feeling of wanting to face things as an adult and as a parent without deceiving, not forgetting the time when you were a child who was honest and straight.
If you look up straight, even the twilight is not scary.
...Even if you are scared, if you look straight, confidently, and carefully, it's not an opponent to be feared. Scary imaginations are not reality, so don't create scary things like ghosts or bad things yourself, it's okay.
I just wish to be more transparent, that's all I really want.
...I want to stay as honest as this or more. I want to be strong enough to stay as I am, an honest person who doesn't offend anyone.
I also think I want to disappear quietly just like this.
It is very difficult to call something bad; it is not easy for me.
...I'm the type who doesn't go out of my way to speak ill of things. Telling someone about that child's bad deeds is scary because of retaliation, and because I'm kind, I think about whether to say it or not. I don't have confidence, and it might be a misunderstanding, so I keep it in my heart, which causes stress.
I want to touch and confirm one by one with these hands, various vivid things.
...Because I'm serious, I can't treat even one small thing casually.
I want to regain the feeling of liking what I like. I have the sincerity to face things carefully and feel them.
When you are angry, crying, or even lose your voice,
I want to share my transparent feelings with you.
...Even if you are so stressed that your emotions run wild and you are no longer yourself, or you become like you have depression, or you have already despaired,
I can give half of the strong, still-beautiful heart of a mom who has overcome everything to my precious child.
When I felt ashamed, sick, bloomed, or withered, it almost became murky.
...Being told my flaws and being belittled, thinking I looked pathetic, then recovering and becoming defiant, then being belittled again.
If I repeated that, I thought about doing the same thing back to them, or I thought about even worse, dirtier things.
I can feel happy tomorrow too.
Waiting in anticipation to see you again,
goodbye.
...After experiencing various things, if I realize that I am transparent and beautiful, so I am easily tainted, or if I realize that I am beautiful, I am happy.
I am happy because I live in a world where I am blessed and overflowing with things I like, so no matter what happens, I am happy, so it's okay.
It's okay because I can return to being myself who feels happy. In the end, I realize after the day has passed that I was happy in some way every day.
Mom is proud that you come home after experiencing various things, becoming stronger, and being tossed about by the world, so become strong,
and keep becoming a better person as you leave the nest.
The lyrics are skipped.
This is my personal opinion that it can be felt in this way.
All the lyrics are touching, so I especially want people who have experienced bullying or unpleasant human experiences to listen to it!
It touched the heart of my childhood self who didn't have parents or reliable human relationships and wasn't spoken to as an ally... Ringo Mommy in my heart lol.
What a good mother...
But it's like I can listen to it without doing negative things, or maybe tears of relief are about to come out...
Anyway, it's a good song!
The melody is bright and refreshing, and it also has a childishness and is cute, but you can also feel strength.
It has a sense of tempo and is also like a cheering song.
It's a song that makes you feel courageous!
Ariamaru Tomi (Overflowing Wealth) is also recommended! The lyrics are similar and it stays by your side.
It's bright but also has a gentle ballad feel and is easy to listen to.
When you interact with people every day and compare yourself, lose confidence, and can't move,
it gives you wisdom so you can live like yourself again.
It's a very good song that makes you realize important things again!
In the MV, no people are shown, and the sky and beautiful things being blown up are slow and beautiful,
and it makes your helpless heart feel refreshed somehow!
You can watch it on YouTube, so I want you to watch it!
Japanese is really difficult.
I wonder if there are many people who understand the meaning of the lyrics from the beginning?
I also have ADHD, so there are times when I only understand things literally,
and if I don't think about it carefully, I might not notice the hidden true meaning.
But it would be nice if I knew the correct answer, but it's not always the case that people will honestly tell you that the correct answer is the correct answer...
But that's exactly why Japanese lyrics are worth playing with,
and Ringo Sheena uses music and words
to express various emotions brilliantly, stylishly, and in a rock way,
and for me, she is number one and only one!
Actually, Daiki Tsuneta from King Gnu is also number one...
Only one combo.
They are said to be the two who have a 'chuunibyou' (middle school syndrome) vibe,
which means they have honest hearts forever!
Tsuneta-san denied it and said he was a high school sophomore! Cute lol. He's just a little bit of an adult lol.
All my favorites are cute, really...
Ringo-san is an older sister, but Tsuneta-san is almost the same age, so I'm being rude with a sense of familiarity lol. Sorry lol.
The image of Ringo-san is quite different between the public and fans,
and there is still the influence of her old image strategy,
but there is no doubt that that is also one part of Ringo-san as an artist.
Right now, she is a mom of three children and is over 40 years old,
and even though she obviously makes considerable efforts, she stands on stage casually and energetically.
Just this makes her an incredible person,
but it's a waste that she might still have a bad image from the public, like being mentally unstable or having a strong personality.
When they debuted, I was
still a child who couldn't properly understand high-level music or lyrics,
so I wasn't hooked, but I had a cool image of them,
and I felt like someone like me shouldn't become a fan,
and since the fans were also enthusiastic and stylish people, they felt unapproachable,
so I felt like I was just watching the excitement from afar.
After that, I played music in school clubs, so I liked music but stayed at a level where I wasn't that knowledgeable,
and as I got into other things and became an otaku, it was an era where anime endings were also becoming stylish,
and at that age, I loved fashion, and naturally, I came to like trends in fashion and makeup too,
and then I got hooked on King Gnu for their anime theme songs, and naturally came to like similar music,
and before I knew it, I was hooked on Ringo Sheena, and naturally Tokyo Jihen too...
At that time, it was just before the COVID-19 pandemic, and I myself had a lot of stress and many worries,
and even when I was exhausted, reality was cruel and harsh...
How much was I saved by music...
Since their career is long and they have a wide range of songs and many tracks, I could find songs that suited me at the time,
and I was able to get through every day while listening to them on my commute,
so I can't thank them enough.
The musical styles are varied, and I never get tired of listening to any of these one-of-a-kind, top-tier songs; I don't feel like I could ever create them.
If you have even a little experience with music, you realize they are an incredible group.
They are people who represent Japan.
But for me, still in my 20s with little life experience, the lyrics are all very difficult,
so I'm just doing my best to listen to the songs and enjoy them.
It's also hard to memorize the lyrics and sing them...
Even when I think I've understood the meaning literally, I sometimes wonder, 'Could it mean this instead...?'
As I experience more things in life, like after going through painful times,
I come to understand the lyrics, so it feels like I'm being given a reward for overcoming them!
Now I can live thinking that if I overcome painful things, there will be a reward lol
It feels like she is walking ahead in life, looking back to match my pace,
and taking my hand to guide me, saying, 'You worked so hard up to here,' which is irresistible.
Ringo Sheena is beautiful and stands out, so people inevitably flock to her.
That is precisely why she has experienced both the good and bad sides of the many people who have approached her,
and because she knows that, it's terrifying to think that might be why
she is able to write such lyrics.
And while she is thought of as a strong, cool woman,
in reality, she is very delicate, honest, and almost like a young girl,
while also being a charming, mature woman whose intelligence has become a mass of sex appeal,
possessing all the elements that can make up human charm,
like a witch who embodies the ideal woman that is Ringo Sheena...
Anyway, she is an amazing woman packed with an unbelievable level of charm lol
I am a woman, but if she were close by, I would fall for her.
I understand why men would have irresistible feelings for her.
But I have enough reason not to be foolish enough to think I could get close to her.
I understand the phenomenon of people deifying her to the point of worship.
Since she is human, she must have her own thoughts,
and if an ordinary person were to understand what Ringo Sheena is thinking,
I wonder if there wouldn't be many things that would make them shudder...
I wonder if she hasn't experienced many things that ordinary people wouldn't...
She isn't a person who talks much, so the episodes she shares are only very small things, and I worry that she might have gone through even harder times... I'm worried about my favorite artist... I just want her to be happy lol
Ah... I want to take care of her... I want her to hire a maid or someone so she can always have time and peace of mind and be properly cherished...
She might be the type of person who wants to do daily chores herself, so please at least let me handle the dirty stuff like the drain hair catcher... I'll go anywhere for you, rain or shine, to do your shopping since it might attract attention... If it's for you...
For those who are such super-heavy fans lol, can't you tell from the lyrics of the new song that that person who is usually elegant is angry?
There were even people on YouTube leaving angry comments.
Tokyo Jihen, who revived and 're-generated' in the leap year of the COVID-19 pandemic
I think fans were furious about these past few years where so much happened.
Something that happens once every four years was ruined by the pandemic.
A major incident that will go down in history.
Since I became a full-fledged fan from before the COVID-19 pandemic, at the time I started liking them,
they were in a state of hiatus.
When would my favorite artist revive... or would they... I regretted it so much.
Why didn't I get hooked sooner... I hate myself.
Amidst that, with the sudden news of their regeneration, I joined the fan club because I absolutely wanted to go to their live shows.
But maybe the long-time fans are scary... because there are quite a lot of rules for live shows...
But it's still a happy thing!
There was a lot of happy news for fans after so many years.
I was also looking forward to it so much, and hearing that Ringo Sheena was involved in something that happens once every four years,
I was itching to know what kind of wonderful thing she would show the world...
But the revival live show was an online concert, and it lacked excitement without the cheers.
But many people were able to watch it, and the chat was lively,
so it wasn't all bad.
A new song was also announced, and I listened to it many times and tried desperately to understand the lyrics,
and I suddenly realized, 'Is she quite angry?'
Since it's set to such an incredibly wonderful song, are you overwhelmed by the sound and can't tell unless you listen to it carefully many times?
In the city, with songs from various artists playing,
the lyrics don't really sink in.
Since fans are the ones who listen the most and try to understand,
maybe she puts her thoughts into it and lets it flow lightly and softly with upbeat music.
As if to say, 'It's fine if only those who understand, understand'...
What a cool person she is.
I regret my lack of vocabulary at times like this, but
even if I studied desperately, I could never be like her,
so she uses Japanese beautifully, matches it with music,
and every time, she lightly leaps over expectations like a rabbit.
As if she lives on the moon,
what a lovely person she is.
Who was it that angered that beloved person of yours?
I want to avenge them in your stead, but I lack the ability.
If it were for you, I would want to do work that moves the nation...
But I suppose my feelings won't reach them there.
Perhaps it's not my wish for them to reach, that person...
Do they underestimate the power of music, those people?
Should I leave this grudge unavenged...
It feels like they are trampling on a benefactor who has saved my life many times over,
I feel like I'll become an evil spirit without being able to pass on! I could even become a special-grade cursed object lol
The world is in a pretty bad mood, full of dissatisfaction with the government's response.
Lyrics that clear away dissatisfaction and songs with comforting kindness
are like a great doctor who prescribes the right amount of gentle medicine when you need it,
they become medicine for the heart and are truly more reliable than any politician.
All of these recommended songs!
are masterpieces that fit perfectly into some moment in everyone's life.
When you were busy right after your debut and having a hard time after your child was born,
there was a shocking terrorist attack abroad that was frequently on the news.
Since then, with motherhood and being naive, you experienced many thoughts as a mother and as a person.
You decided to write songs that could comfort other moms or someone like you because you were anxious too.
Because you have a delicate and beautiful heart, you raised many songs like children and they were born safely,
I'm sure the hearts of other beautiful people like you were saved too.
Delicate creatures are easy to go extinct, so we must protect them.
I can praise my favorite artist as much as I want.
But I feel it would be rude to use cliché expressions, so I can't type words lightly.
Ringo Sheena, Tokyo JihenFor those who feel distant from them,
I want you to feel safe approaching them and experiencing them thoroughly.
Because they will be with you as a gentle and cheerful partner for your ears and heart in life,
you can live your life with peace of mind.
It seems you like carrots! I like them too!
Rabbits also appear often in the designs of your husband, the MV director,
and I love the two of you for being such a cute and humorous couple.
Since episodes about the couple aren't talked about much,
I thought you might be stoic and quiet at home,
but the episode on TV about your husband carrying you was so cute,
and I was happy to know you are truly happy in your daily life.
I thought you were an ideal couple.
The 'carrying' part was when you were tired from childcare and work,
and you were feeling down because you were too tired to go shopping,
so your husband suggested lifting your body weight to make you feel lighter.
That is so close, humorous, and thoughtful, it almost made me cry.
There was another episode on that program.
When you were worried about lyrics, your 9-year-old son would lie down with you,
and give you advice like, 'You have to write them separately on paper to visualize them and make them easy to understand!'
To think he's such a good kid who can give his mother good advice on her worries,
and that you're a mom who lies down with an elementary school boy at night and talks about your own worries,
I could suddenly imagine your daily life,
and I almost cried, feeling that you are living your life right now.
Just being able to live in Japan in the same era as you, Ringo-san,
makes me a happy fan.Born
If it's a live concert video, the last concert before the hiatus ends with
Invisible Personbeing sung, and it ends with 'Goodbye!!!',
but somehow it's not sad.
The costumes and production are positive, making me look forward to meeting you again,
it's the best concert, so I recommend Bon Voyage!
The video of this concert is also on the official YouTube, so check it out!
Ultra C includesExcess Wealthand the costumes are of course wonderful!
Live concerts really have amazing power, I definitely want to recommend them to people who haven't been!
I can't get tickets though lol, Ringo-san's OTK (otaku fan name) are really amazing.
I haven't been able to go to Ringo-san's concert because I can't get tickets,
but at a King Gnu concert,W⚫︎RKRingo-san appeared as a secret guest,
and I was in the same space and met you! I couldn't believe it... I thought I'd never meet you... *cries*
I screamed the loudest in my life, even I was surprised lol.
The collective roar of everyone there was a gathering of joyful voices I'd never heard before, my heart trembled, it was tremendous lol.
It's on YouTube, but the volume is adjusted so the cheers are quiet, but in reality, it was over 22 times louder than that lol.
The music, which was loud enough to almost burst my eardrums, couldn't be heard over the cheers lol. It was the intensity of the vibration of the cheering voices, or rather, the pressure of the cheers I'd never heard before!
Everyone was so funny for screaming too much when Ringo-san appeared, even though they were King Gnu fans lol. It's partly because it was a secret lol.
Also, when your cleavage was revealed during the jacket play, both men and women were like,
KYAAAAAAA!!!! everyone lol lol lol
It was so easy to understand and the best lol.
Without a doubt, it was the moment in this life when my brain juice flowed the most and I was the most excited!
They say if you go to a live concert, you can live 9 years longer.
There's also stress reduction due to the secretion of happiness hormones,
so even if you have stress, feel the vibrations with your five senses! Brain juice will flow from your whole body lol.
It makes me think I'm glad I'm alive.
But because I'm HSP, I worry about the bad manners of other fans or the voices of people nearby,
but after going many times, I've gotten used to it, thinking it's something that can't be helped,
it's something I can't do anything about, and I'm not perfect either, so it's okay!
Even if the person in the next seat is the type who sings and makes a lot of noise, or bumps into my hands and gets in the way,
I've become able to enjoy it lol.
I've never regretted going! Even if there are many unpleasant things,
after a few years, it becomes a good memory that makes me think it was worth going!
Also, my hearing is a bit sensitive,
but these two groups are particular about sound, so it wasn't unpleasant even at high volume.
But depending on the venue's acoustics or your seat, it can be so bad you'll want to cover your ears, so I recommend earplugs to soften the sound!
They're stylish and can even be used as accessories! I want the silver ones!
From 'Purchase on Amazon',click itand
it saves the trouble of searching,
and it also becomes my income, so thank you!
I'm not a suspicious person!
I'm currently under review for the official Amazon Associates program!
Just by jumping to the Amazon page,
nothing bad will happen.
Please enjoy shopping on Amazon with peace of mind!
Concerts can feel like a high hurdle and they cost money,
and I used to be nervous about going alone, but now I go by myself all the time!
When I go with someone else, I get tired from worrying about getting lost, bathroom breaks, or making small talk,
but going alone is a great detox and stress reliever, and it lets me focus and really feel the music,
so I actually recommend going to concerts alone!
If you're lonely, you can talk to the person next to you at the venue or try to make friends,
but there are tons of people there by themselves, so you'll be fine! It's totally fun!
Everyone has at least one singer they like, right?
If there's a concert, the ticket scramble is fun, and you can do some sightseeing around the venue too,
it's all good things, so don't be afraid to go! You'll get hooked...
It's tiring to read long things, isn't it? I always end up writing too much lol
It's because I'm an OTK, HSP, ADHD, INFP, and INTP lol
Thanks to the kind people who read this lol
I have more recommendations lol. I'll probably end up writing a long post again lol
Writing is tiring too lol
But I can't stop, so someone... help... me... lol
