ゆよゆっぺ – Planetary suicide

yuyoyuppe – Planetary suicide

Tab requested by Jesús.

Hm, I said I was going to do a guitar cover video this weekend but that would actually require effort; now that I think about, there’s a lot of work that goes into that kind of thing (having done a few before). I don’t really have the patience for it, especially for this song, whose master recording has very precise pick attack. My video would be sloppy by comparison no matter how long I practiced (and trust me, I practiced).

So I uploaded the tab now. I already spent a large chunk of time tabbing and translating this song, so I’m calling it done. I translated the lyrics a two days ago (but the time stamp says yesterday since it was uploaded in the early morning?) here.

I tweeted about it, but yuyoyuppe has really come a long way. When you compare the purposeful use of accidentals in this song and say, Mad answer, it seems there’s a big difference. In Mad answer, you have that jarring C# chord at ~0:20, but in Planetary suicide (which is in c minor) he throws that same C# around and it just feels so right.

Just goes to show you need to know the rules before you can break them, I guess.

ゆよゆっぺ – Planetary suicide [LYRICS]

Tab requested by Jesús, lyrics hinted at being requested by the same. Somehow I managed to do both, and quickly? Huh. Tab coming this weekend, after I make a guitar cover video (because I’m vain).

Look at this travesty. Horrible. I’ve copied the lyrics from the booklet.

There are a couple lines before the first verse starts, but the lyrics weren’t in the book. I honestly don’t have a clue what that might be. Instead, let me try to translate the writing inside the outer sleeve of the album:

永遠なんてなかった
誰かの言ったウソっぱちだった
でもこれでいいんだ
幸せとか不幸とかの概念が失くなって
まっさらになれたんだから

目を閉じよう

There’s no such thing as eternity
Anyone who said as much lied
But this is fine
Ideas like happiness and sorrow will disappear
And be able to become brand new again
Close your eyes…

ゆよゆっぺ – I want… [LYRICS]

Lyrics transcribed by ear (I’m pretty sure it’s a transcription?) here. Apologies to yuさん; hopefully he/she doesn’t mind my taking their transcription without asking. I definitely can’t transcribe Japanese, but I don’t own this CD (yet)… Anyway, this is one of my favorite yuyoyuppe songs so imagine my elation on finding someone who took the time to do this! I’ve changed/added a few parts to the English part, though; the original transcription was incomplete.

これを見たら本当にありがとうございました、yuさん。

Here is my original (bad) transcription (that I started months ago):

Just look up I’m making sure that
I know what you want
As long as I have the air to breathe in
Nobody can know
And here is the starting place reaching from that
I want to give you the place I’ve never been to
It’s only make me fall

Some lines are close enough to yu’s transcription that I wonder… without the original lyrics or booklet, I still think it’s open to interpretation. So here is another version to compare. The video linked on this post is from the original release of Wall in the presence; it has since been released twice more (all three times with different tracklists).

ゆよゆっぺ – Take my hands [LYRICS]

Lyrics transcribed by ear (I’m pretty sure it’s a transcription?) here and here. Apologies to yuさん and myuuhaさん; hopefully they don’t mind my taking their transcriptions without asking. This is a combination of yu’s, myuuha’s, and my (unreleased) transcriptions… Anyway, this is one of my favorite yuyoyuppe songs so imagine my elation on finding someone else who took the time to do this!

これを見たら本当にありがとうございました、yuさんとmyuuhaさん。

I originally thought the first line of the chorus was “If you were smiling me in the face” but who knows?

ゆよゆっぺ – Sweet circle [LYRICS]

Lyrics transcribed by ear here. Apologies to yuさん; hopefully he/she doesn’t mind my taking their transcription without asking. I definitely can’t transcribe Japanese, and I was pretty upset when the insert (I also own this CD) didn’t come with lyrics… Anyway, this is one of my favorite yuyoyuppe songs so imagine my elation on finding someone who took the time to do this!

これを見たら本当にありがとうございました、yuさん。

4/22 EDIT: I did a few revisions; some lines had been nagging at me all this time.

ゆよゆっぺ – Prayer [LYRICS]

Couldn’t find them online, and since I had the booklet open I decided to copy them out for you. Strangely enough, there’s no video of this song online besides this Stepmania one? Not like I looked very hard for a video though.

Lyrics by ゆよゆっぱ.

ゆよゆっぺ ft. ルシュカ, neko – Sad spring [LYRICS]

There’s a lot of bull going on in this song. I’m not so knowledgable about anything, so when I see stuff like 古(いにしえ) in the booklet I question what it could mean… I’ve noted these below. It seems for the most part yuyoyuppe decided to write a song “old-school-style” as far as language is concerned, but there’s a lot open to interpretation, I think, and while I did my best, I encourage you to read other translations.

ゆよゆっぺ ft. 柿チョコ – Stay by my side [LYRICS]

Wow, I think I “get” this song. Then again, as usual, I’m a pretty bad translator, so please look at other people’s translations (I’m sure I won’t be the only one) and form your own opinions/meanings. OR…! Translate it yourself! That’s always fun!

ゆよゆっぺ feat. Ryo, APG550 – Accept your fate now [LYRICS]

I’m just transcribing what I can understand… I’ll update the lyrics as the scans magically appear.

Lyrics directly from the booklet! Yeah! … I kind of liked some of the lines I heard on my original transcription better, but that’s life.

I remember on Twitter, Shuuhei asked who “Ryo” was, and he got a reply from someone, but the account has been suspended… he’s a member of a band? Maybe a band yuyoyuppe and APG met while playing as MEDY??? Speculation… this whole post is made of it.
