Happy late anniversary to me becoming a Vocaloid cover person/youtaite/what have you! 🎉

So in case you didn’t know, this is my favorite Vocaloid song of all time. I just… love everything about it. Of course Sidu’s PV is breathtaking and I wanna cry tears over these two, but in my opinion the song itself tells a beautiful story without even having to watch the music video. This is Neru’s best song in my opinion and I doubt it’ll ever be dethroned as my favorite ever.

So I kinda have spent the last few years being angry at myself for covering this song right when I started out because it’s like NO I was such a newbie back then… But at least it gave me the excuse to redo it once enough time had passed and pour all my love for this song into it.

Yeah I... Went apeshit with this to be honest. I just let my fingers write the lyrics for me in the best sense of musicality... I knew I had to do adlibs galore... I wanted to add something special but I didn't want to intrude too much on the song. But I did feel I could think of a simplistic lyric addition in the instrumental break that kinda helped it transition through the sudden change in perspective at the end of the song. Hopefully it blends in alright LOL

The boys in the PV have names by the way— Kawasemi (orange haired pilot) and Kuina (black haired cop). These names have meaning, given that they’re the Japanese names of the kingfisher and water rail birds.

What is a sad bit of trivia about their names, is that in real life the Kuina— the water rail— cannot fly.

Thanks as always for supporting me. I'm trying to be more active so hopefully I'll post again soon. I really love making covers, I feel so energized when I'm getting one ready.
