1) angela is a JPop duo from Okayama, Japan composed of atsuko (lyrics, vocals, musical composition) and KATSU (musical composition and arrangment, keyboards, guitar).
angela has released a grand total of nineteen singles (six on a major label), one maxi single, one promotional CD, four mini CD albums, and five full-length CD albums (one on a major label). Additionally, their music has been featured on other anime-related soundtrack CDs.
Ironically, atsuko and KATSU did not realize that they were both born in the same town of Okayama until they went to the same music school in Tokyo. There, their same origin allowed them to bond together into the earliest incarnation of angela. They decided to work together, and they have come a long way since then.
Originally, angela was an independent band, performing in clubs and otherwise since 1993 and in 1999 they made their debut with the single memories, however this release went largely unnoticed. In 2002, they were signed by KING RECORDS after one of their representatives heard a song that Katsu had improvised from the ever-popular Zankoku na Tenshi no Thesis. After that, their debut single, Asu e no brilliant road became the cornerstone of success for angela. This was success that granted them several popular singles for the Uchuu no Stellvia and Sokyuu no Fafner anime series and a popular album, Sora no Koe -- success that granted them even a live concert in the United States at Otakon 2004 in Baltimore, Maryland.
angela's newest album, "I/O", was released in November on King Records and is available.
They are also known for the parapara dance routine which accompanies Asu e no brilliant road that "is very popular in Tokyo" according to angela.
angela performed at Sakuracon 2005 in Seattle, Washington, and will be performing at CN Anime 2005 in Toronto, Ontario
Their live concerts consist of a background layer of music, arranged by KATSU beforehand. At the concert, atsuko performs a vocal track live, as KATSU performs a guitar track live. Therefore, the songs in all of their concerts are pre-determined to a greater extent than other bands.
Horizon
Angela Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We were taking sides on the horizon, and it hurt so
You were right on time with the pain, and it wrote that way
Shining our light, then light it on fire
And I remember
We were lying quiet in the sand, with your head and hand on my mine
And it felt so sweet, got me weak
Kinda energy that you can't describe
And I remember
Having a good time with you love, can we stay here, baby
Having a good time with you, love
Make this thing here daily, try
I know we can have that
Full love, full love, full love
The lyrics of Angela's song "Horizon" depict a tumultuous relationship marked by late-night calls and arguments. The imagery of "taking sides on the horizon" suggests that the couple is constantly in conflict, causing emotional pain. The idea that the pain was "written that way" implies that this cycle of arguments and hurt is seemingly inevitable or predetermined.
The chorus of the song introduces a different atmosphere, focusing on moments of intimacy and joy. The lyrics recount a serene moment spent lying quietly in the sand with intertwining heads and hands. This tranquil scene creates a sense of sweetness and vulnerability for the singer, leaving her feeling weak in the best possible way. The use of "real low sunlight" and the mention of an indescribable energy further conveys the special nature of this experience.
The desire to continue having a good time with the person she loves is expressed in the bridge. The lyrics ask if they can stay in this happy state forever, repeating the idea of "having a good time" as if to emphasize the importance of this connection. The line "make this thing here daily" suggests a desire for consistency and stability in their relationship. The singer believes they are capable of experiencing a love that is complete and whole, represented by the repetition of the phrase "full love."
In summary, "Horizon" portrays a relationship filled with conflict and pain, but also highlights moments of genuine intimacy and happiness. The lyrics capture the contrasting emotions experienced in this love story, illustrating the potential for both turbulence and tranquility. Ultimately, the singer craves a love that is not fleeting but rather enduring and all-encompassing.
Line by Line Meaning
And I remember, all the late-night calls and the fight
I recall the memories of our arguments and the late-night conversations we had
We were taking sides on the horizon, and it hurt so
We were conflicting on different perspectives, and the pain was intense
You were right on time with the pain, and it wrote that way
You perfectly matched the agony, and that's how it unfolded
Shining our light, then light it on fire
We were illuminating our love and passion, but it ultimately turned destructive
And I remember
I have vivid recollections
We were lying quiet in the sand, with your head and hand on my mine
We were peacefully lying down on the sand, intimately connected
And it felt so sweet, got me weak
It was a delightful and overwhelming experience
And I remember, real low sunlight
I recall the gentle sunlight
Kinda energy that you can't describe
An indescribable kind of energy
And I remember
I remember it well
Having a good time with you love, can we stay here, baby
Enjoying our time together, can we prolong this moment, my love
Having a good time with you, love
Experiencing joy and happiness with you, my love
Make this thing here daily, try
Let's strive to make this relationship a daily occurrence
I know we can have that
I am confident that we can achieve that
Full love, full love, full love
A love that is complete and whole
