Jpop Recommend #250 Amazing Grace by Takehara Pistol

Amazine Grace 

竹原 ピストル  Takehara Pistol


Released in July 2017, this song was recorded in his live tour, "PEACE OUT".
 

The original music is a famous Christian hymn, "Amazing Grace" known for many years.  He put a Japanese lyrics and it caught great attention because of that lyrics.   

If you read through the lyrics, it will bring you a bit of laughter and then to tears in the end. When you hear this song with his singing style, it sounds completely different from the original hymn.

I want to explore the crown of your head
こっそり と こっそり と あなた の   白髪     を

Secretly and without being noticed    Your white hair
勝手   に   黒く    そめて    あげたい

I want to dye them dark even if you agree or not


ミジンコくらい に ちいさく なって

those cancer cells I want to kill them all
