Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Start me up itsumo to onaji sora
Yoku aru situation
Na noni hayaru kimochi wa mou
Natsu no game iza kaishi!! Yeah

Mazu wa shikkari nerai
Hazuasanai you ni massugu mitsume!!
Soshite kachimake
Aru to iu koto wo wasurezu ni!!

Sono ki ni nattemite
Heart ni furetemite
Itsu demo taisetsu na koi dakara
Kanarazu tsukamitoru

Sunao ni naru kara nee
Kono mama dakishimete
Negai wa itsu datte ai shiteru
Mirai wo terashiteru darling

Yokubou mukidashi na watashi wa

Kakusu hima mo naitte majide
Game ni naranaitte hanashi...

Toomawari shinai you nii
Watashi no ai todoke sugu ni
Koe wo kikasete
Honto no kimochi wo waiting for your love

Katte ni ura route
Tsukatte kikidashitara

Sunao ni naru kara nee
Kono mama dakishimete




Negai wa itsu datte ai shiteru
Mirai wo terashiteru darling

Overall Meaning

"Chase" by Koda Kumi is a song about the excitement and rush of pursuing someone or something. The lyrics encourage the listener to start up and go after what they want, even when it seems daunting. The song opens with the line "Start me up itsumo to onaji sora," which roughly translates to "start me up, the same sky as always." This suggests that the world might seem predictable or mundane, but there's still room for excitement and adventure.


Throughout the song, Koda sings about the thrill of chasing after someone, even though they might not be easy to catch. She says "toomawari shinai you ni, watashi no ai todoke sugu ni," which means "don't take the long way, reach my love immediately." She's willing to be vulnerable and open herself up to someone, saying "sunao ni naru kara nee, kono mama dakishimete," which roughly translates to "I'll be honest, so hold me like this."


Despite the risks involved in chasing after something or someone, Koda encourages the listener to go for it anyway. The chorus repeats the lines "sono ki ni natte might, heart ni furete might, itsu demo taisetsu na koi dakara, kanarazu tsukamitoru," which roughly means "if it's on your mind, touch your heart, because love is always important and you must definitely catch it."


Overall, "Chase" is a song about taking risks and going after what you want, even when it's scary or uncertain. It's a reminder that the rush of pursuit can be just as exciting as actually catching the thing you're chasing.

『Chase』
2004.07.28 RELEASE

12枚目シングル「Chase」
ホテルのメイドくぅちゃん可愛すぎる!
髪のカラーもセットも似合っててちょーかわいい!
「おっちゃんそら覗いてまうわー」とおっちゃん目線になってたらなんとポリスマンやったとゆー(笑)
色々TRICK満載なMV!

このシングルを聴いて思い出すのわ
『LIVE TOUR 2005~first things~』

サビの最後に"ダーリン"のとこでclap👏🏼
そして最後に敬礼ポーズ👮‍♂️たまらん♡笑
カップリングの「Heat feat.MEGARYU」
とってもとってもだいすきなサウンド!
髪をほどいて踊って歌うくぅちゃんがかっこよかった!
ダンスの振り付けもめーっちゃすき!
やっぱ遊園地をテーマにした2005年のLIVEすきやなー!



@m_ar_k_0063

start me up いつもと同じ空
よくある シチュエーション
なのに はやる気持ちはもう
夏のゲーム いざ開始!! Yeah
まずはしっかり狙い
はずさないようにまっすぐ見つめ!!
そして勝ち負け
あるということを忘れずに!!

その気になってみて
ハートに触れてみて
いつでも 大切な恋だから
必ずつかみとる
素直になるから ねぇ
このまま抱きしめて
願いはいつだって愛してる
未来を照らしてる ダーリン

欲望ムキだしな私は
まさに自然体
隠す暇もないって マジで
ゲームにならないって話…
遠回りしないように
私の愛 届け すぐに
声を聞かせて
ほんとの気持ちを
waiting for your love

勝手に裏ルート
使って 聞き出したら
へこんだ… 本当は君からの
言葉で知りたいのに
優しくなるから ねぇ
あたしをみて欲しい だけなの
結局は惚れたもん
負けだってことだね ダーリン

その気になってみて
ハートに触れてみて
いつでも 大切な恋だから
必ずつかみとる
素直になるから ねぇ
このまま抱きしめて
願いはいつだって愛してる
未来を照らしてる ダーリン

Chase is so fun, and the B-side for this single is so hot. Wish Heat feat. Megaryu had a music video too.

@vintageincolor

The music video for Heat would have been epic
