Say "Yes" - Chage & Aska
余計な物など 無いよね
すべてが君と僕との 愛の構えさ
There is nothing that is redundant about our love
which is made up of everything and completeness.
少しくらいの嘘やワガママも
まるで僕 を試すような
恋人 の フレイズになる
A little lie or wilfulness,
as if to try me,
are only games played by lovers.
このままふたりで 夢をそろえて
何げなく暮らさないか
Shouldn't the two of us place our dreams side by side,
and without thinking deliberately, live a life together ?
愛には愛で感じ合おうよ
硝子ケースに並ばないように
You should use love to feel the presence of love.
Please do not enclose your love inside a glass case.
何度も言うよ 残さず言うよ
君があふれてる
I will say it no matter how many times. I will say it without reservation.
My heart is filled with you.
言葉は心を越えない
とても伝えたがるけど 心に勝てない
My words of love just cannot get beyond my heart.
No matter how much I desire to let you know,
my heart cannot get the upper hand.
君に逢いたくて 逢えなくて 寂しい夜
星の屋根に守られて
恋人の切なさ知った
In this lonely night when I wish so much to see you
and yet cannot see you, watching under the roof of stars,
I understand the sadness and anxiety of a man in love.
このままふたりで 朝を迎えて
いつまでも暮らさないか
Shouldn't the two of us wake up to our mornings together,
and until eternity, live a life together?
愛には愛で感じ合おうよ
恋の手触り消えないように
You should use love to feel the presence of love.
Please do not let this feeling of love be lost.
何度も言うよ 君は確かに
僕を愛してる
I will say it no matter how many times.
You are really in love with me.
迷わずに SAY YES 迷わずに
Don't be perplexed any more. Say Yes.
Don't be perplexed any more.
愛には愛で感じ合おうよ
恋の手触り消えないように
You should use love to feel the presence of love.
Please do not let this feeling of love be lost.
何度も言うよ 君は確かに
僕を愛してる
I will say it no matter how many times.
You are really in love with me.
Say "yes"
:)

HONEY-OVERDOSE
When the revolutionary jazz flutist Eric Dolphy was touring in Europe he arranged to have lessons with Severino Gazzelloni during his stay in Italy. Already the possessor of an awesome technique, Eric Dolphy became extremely interested in the experimental work being done by Gazzelloni. (Listen to Eric Dolphy's composition `Gazzelloni' on the album 'Out To Lunch' dedicated to the great Italian flutist). Gazzelloni in turn was impressed by the adventurous rhythmic innovation used by Dolphy in his improvisations. Eric Dolphy was also deeply inspired by the sounds of nature and seriously studied how to reproduce them on the flute. Some of these sounds, such wind and bird songs, he later incorporated into his solo improvisations and cadenzas. Eric Dolphy was a work-a-holic who practiced at every possible opportunity, even during the breaks between sets. He neither used drugs or drank alcohol. His premature death was caused by the fact that he was unaware of being a diabetic. Having started a natural health diet, he ingested large quantities of honey while on a particularly long and arduous European tour. The intake of so much sugar led first to sickness then quickly to a state of deep coma from which he never recovered. In the turbulent drug-ridden jazz environment of the sixties it is ironic that Eric Dolphy should die from an overdose of honey. His flute was bequeathed to his close friend, the legendary saxophonist John Coltrane, who played it on one of his last recordings.
