Post 2! VOCALOID. An adored music program with many wonderful songs that are in Japanese so you just assume they're about rainbows and kittens. We aren't talking nekos and My Little Pony. This is the real meaning behind those lovely songs you so adore.
2. Meltdown
A very lovely piece that many enjoy very much, the popular Rin Kagamine song “Meltdown” is arguably the most impossible VOCALOID song for a human to sing, what with it’s incredibly high notes and funny low notes, the range has left many fans irritable as one of their favorite songs is unable to be sung.
Maybe they should take a look at the lyrics of the chorus they love so much.
“I dreamed of wrapping my hands 'round your neck
On an early afternoon, overflowing with light
I dreamed, with eyes full of tears
of cinching your narrow throat”
While “cinching your narrow throat” can mean “make you shut up”, it’s still not a positive thing for a 14-year-old girl to say. Then again, she’s looking back at herself in the past (little 5-year-old Rin) and saying how much she hates her life then and now. Let’s see the rest of the chorus.
“I want to dive into
a nuclear reactor
Surrounded by beautiful blue light
If I dive into
the nuclear reactor
then I can let it all go”
She wants to KILL HERSELF. She has the classic suicidal thought that it’s the only way to escape from all her problems. But instead of the typical “slitting her wrists” or “hanging herself”, she wants to die via nuclear poisoning or mutation or something weird like that. At least the girl is creative. With that said, let’s move on to the next song.
