Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Midareta kami hito suji mo nai
Odoketa torimaki-tachi watashi ga warawanai no o
Fushigina me o shite mite iru wa
Dress down hayaku mitsukete yo
Son'na ko ni kamatte tsumaranai hazuda wa
Dress down-iki ga tomaru hodo mitsume raretakutte
Burū ni yureru raito anata ga chikadzuite kuru
Awateta tsumasaki moteamasu
Fukigen ni sa sete kurete arigatō tte kiridashitara
Anata wa suteki ni hohoenda
Dress down wazato kaki ageru
Kami no kaori sae mo hakara reta yūwaku
Dress down anata ga watashi ni muchūninaru mae ni
I'm melting, melting, melting, melting you
Dress down wazato kaki ageru
Kami no kaori sae mo hakara reta yūwaku
Dress down wazato hamidashita kuchibeni no maryoku de
I'm waiting, waiting for you.
Dress down anata ga watashi ni
Muchūninaru mae ni
I'm melting, melting, melting, melting you.
The lyrics to the song "Dress Down" by 秋元薰 are about a woman who is trying to impress her partner by dressing up and showing off her appearance. The first verse talks about her outfit falling apart and the quirky looks she is getting. This suggests that she is trying too hard to impress her partner and it's not going well. The second verse describes the man's response to her attempts, he approaches her and she feels nervous and self-conscious, but he reassures her with his smile. The chorus talks about wanting to be seen in a natural state, rather than trying too hard to impress.
The song seems to be about accepting oneself and being comfortable in one's own skin. The woman in the song is trying too hard to impress her partner, but by the end of the song, she discovers that she doesn't need to change herself to be attractive. The last line of the song is about melting, suggesting that she is giving in to her feelings and becoming more vulnerable.

Backless dress and
Eye-catching earrings
Perfect style with no messy hair lines
My henchmen are being playful
But they look at me in wonder
because I don't smile.

So the folk who own this gem actually care about redistributing it to a new generation, neat. BTW for those of you looking for quality, Im pretty sure this is one of the highest quality recordings of Dress Down since it was uploaded by the people who own the rights to it.
@hollyjollylollymolly3160
Actually i wouldn't doubt it was more likely for the money, it's a hit anyway.
@antoniorivera8321
@@hollyjollylollymolly3160 they paid money to advertise this song,either way it's nice they want people to listen to this
@vidcas1711
The only minor nitpick is that this video replaced the album version of "Dress Down" on the automatically generated "Cologne" playlist. When listing to the album, there's no longer the original transition between "Narcissist" and "Dress Down".
Still a very minor nitpick, and can be replicated using other uploads of the song.
@demogaming8895
@@vidcas1711 there's a whole remastered album now. Looks like they re released the whole thing
@browngirlinaclownworld2077
Holy cow, you're right, this IS the official company! And they knew to put a clip from an 80s anime! They know about internet stuff! Lol.
@izumikairu5072
Yes! Finally an official distribution of the song. This song sound so godly at high quality
@rickscool
first time hearing this song i like it i might actually start listening to city pop music.
@aSpectreAppears
The music fits in with with many scenes such as action or elevator type scenes when the characters are hanging out on a train whilst doing random stuff whilst waiting. Japan has a great range of music but you never see it outside of Japanese material. Even without the lyrics written up, the music just sucks you in.
@thaDjMauz
I gotta say though, this upload does not sound like high quality to me. I think it is a remaster, the compression sounds much heavier than the flac I have been listening to for years.
