Mabuta no ura ni otonare dake ukabete nemurugi setsuni GOOD BYE
Tomoku kira-meku yasashisa yori tada hito tsuwaga mama ga oshii

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Daydream Generation" by 馬渡松子 describe a sense of longing and nostalgia for a simpler time, where life was less complicated and people were more honest with themselves and each other. The first verse talks about saying goodbye to the illusions and facades that people put up in order to fit in, and instead seeking out a more genuine connection with others, even if it might be painful at times. The second verse describes a feeling of isolation and emptiness, spending days alone in a room and struggling to come up with ideas. Despite this, the chorus offers a glimmer of hope and comfort, as the dream world serves as a sanctuary from the harsh realities of life, and the simple joys of love and connection are still worth pursuing, even if they might come with some pain and hardship.


One interesting aspect of this song is its connection to the Japanese rock band The Pillows, who wrote and performed the theme songs for the popular anime series FLCL, which features a similar theme of youth and nostalgia. Another interesting fact is that the song was covered by the American rock band Somegirl in 2007, receiving critical acclaim for its haunting and introspective lyrics. Additionally, the song has been used in various anime series, such as Blue Drop and A Certain Scientific Railgun, further cementing its status as a beloved cult classic.


Chords: Unfortunately, the chords for this song are not readily available as it seems to be a lesser-known track.

この方の声って幽遊白書のどのキャラの声をあててもなんか合うんだよな。不思議な感じ。

@KoKKKKK

桑原以外なら確かにそうかもしれない女性含め

@Music-et6mf

幽白世代には説明不要の神曲ですね。
個人的には、この素晴らしい歌唱力に加えて、作曲のみならず編曲&プログラミングまで手掛けてしまう彼女の圧倒的な才能に注目してしまいます。
今でこそDTMは多くの人に普及しましたが、それを1990年代の段階で……
J-POPの歴史を紐解いても、女性歌手でこれら全てをこなしてしまう馬渡さんは、たいへん稀有な存在だと思います。

@user-xy8cv2sf8z

幽遊白書は数々の名曲を送り出してきたけどこの曲はいぶし銀って感じ
すげーかっこいい曲

@kamikami2941

なつかしいな
馬渡さん病気しちゃってこのときみたいな声だせなくなっちゃったのが残念

@arleineconstance

@user-mh8cp7fu7r

パワフル!ポジティブ!

の中にも

切なさ。儚さ。

が感じれると思った曲
幽白のEDで一番好きだったな
