The Brilliant Green : [alternative/pop]

They are my favourite jpop band ever. I love all their songs, cuz they are honestly all soo good. Surprisingly, the majority of their songs are 100% English which contain thoughtful lyrics all written by Tommy. Their motto: "the simple concept of wanting to hear good music" and to make "sounds that they themselves would be satisfied with." And they achieve in that by making good music everytime! I definitely recommend you listen to The Brilliant Green..they will not disappoint!

Tomoko Kawase = lead singer and lyrcist

Shunsaku Okuda = bass and chorus and songwriter

Ryo Matsui = guitars and also composes some of their songs

  • Fav Lyrics :
    There will be love there
    If I come to a big corner and turn it, I'll start to run
    I'll stop being confused
    I don't know what will be before then
    But to be strong
    To say "I'll wait happily"
    And the pleasure of waiting are now empty
    I'm full of uneasiness, my worries are always unending
    If I say my dissatisfaction there'll be no end
    Give me the courage to stand and face everything, I believe
    Love that's waiting for me
    Love that's waiting for you
    From there, I want to find a world that can flow away
    There will be love there
    There will be love there
    Someday I want to live for someone

    I lived bearing the guilt
    Of the secret of this place
    If I look around outside my range of vision
    It seemed as without any purpose
    I descended a stairway without even a handrail
    In the middle of a black darkness
    I believe in "a future that's connected by fate"
    I keep telling myself that we'll meet in a happy coincidence
    I believe that I'll have the courage
    To cut the thread of lying and face the truth
    Yeah, I believe
    Love that's waiting for me
    Love that's waiting for you
    I want to be enfolded in the unchanging kindness of eternity
    There will be love there
    There will be love there
    I want to live for that one I love
    In all ages, from everywhere in the world
    The direction of the blue sky, the direction of the starry sky
    The illusions and glittering of unknown things
    miracles that come around again
    So love that's waiting for me
    Love that's waiting for you
    From there, I want to find a world that can flow away
    There will be love there
    There will be love there
    I'll search for that important shining light
    I'll start running and then in that place
    I want to live for the one I love
    I believe there will be love there

    Round and Round:
    No, I don't understand your cynical ways
    All the things that you say
    Will just come back to you
    You spit on life
    As if though you couldn't care
    You keep spitting on life
    But don't you know
    That will just bring you down

    And I don't understand the faces you fake
    All the things that you hate
    Will just come back to you
    You could probably say
    It would happen anyway
    You could probably say it
    Cause it don't bother you

    It's a crime
    Think about it
    And stop acting like a fool
    Yes, it's time
    Can't ignore it
    Think about the things you do

    Round and round
    And up and down again
    Through and through
    Round and round
    And one is two
    Enough is enough
    You know bad karma will just come back to you

    When will you understand the people you hurt ?
    Don't you know that those words
    Will just come back to you
    You would probably say
    That their hurting anyway
    You could probably say it
    Why don't it bother you

    It's a crime
    Living your life
    Without every looking down
    At the ground, at the flowers
    Yeah, that you keep stepping on
    And maybe you should notice
    That they've done nothing to you
    Or you might find out someday
    When things turn upside down
    And those flowers step on you
    Round and round
    And up and down again
    Through and through
    Round and round
    And one is two
    Enough is enough

    Round and round
    And up and down again
    Through and through
    Round and round
    And one is two
    And coming back to you

    Enough is enough
    Why won't you understand ?
    That I've had enough
    And I've taken all I can
    And why do you do
    All of the things that you do ?
    Yes, I want you
    I want you to understand

    That enough is enough
    You know bad karma will just come back to you
