Halle Uchida Commentary

遠距離恋愛の歌です。電話とかメールでお互いの気持ちや姿を伝えられる科学万能の時代。でも、ワープして相手に触れることは、所詮できない。中途半端なこの時代に対する苛立ちや、「触れたい、抱かれたい」と募るばかりの欲望に潰されそうだった経験を思い出して作りました。「〈censored〉」は自主規制個所ですが、想像で補ってください。アニメを付けるつもりでしたが、やる気の糸が意外と早く切れてしまったので今回は曲だけupします。いつの日か、アニメを付けられたらいいなと思います。

This is a song about long-distance relationships. We live in an age where technology makes it possible to convey our feelings and see each other’s faces through phone calls and emails. But no matter what, we still can’t teleport over and touch the other person. I wrote this song while recalling my own experience of feeling overwhelmed by frustration with this imperfect era and by the ever-growing desire to “touch and be held.” The part marked “〈censored〉” is where I self-censored the lyrics, so please use your imagination to fill in the blanks. I had planned to add animation, but my motivation ran out surprisingly quickly, so this time I’m just uploading the song. I hope that someday I’ll be able to add animation to it.

Personal Commentary/Translation Notes

None~ I just like the song haha.
