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.
In My Life
Angela Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A little dart through my heart
Taking over me
It even crawled up
into my philosophy
Oh love, it's in my blood
You, you're my perfume
Liquid sin on my skin
Bloom inside my hungry mouth,
one by one
Oh you, you're my perfume
Pain, it's in my veins
It's in the scars on my guitar
No more songs to play
Melodies are empty
since you went away
Oh pain, it' in my veins
You brought me the moon
and the stars when you came
You tattooed my soul
with your name
Burning with memories
I cannot erase
Tears dig their claws down
my face
Hope, it's in these notes
It's in the blade
of this crusade
To bring you back to me
You will see together
we are meant to be
Oh hope, it's in these notes
Love, you're in my blood
You are the dart
through my heart
Taking over me
You even crawled up
into my philosophy
Oh love, you're in my blood
Your love; yes, it's in my blood
In my blood, in my blood
You're in my blood
The lyrics of Angela's song "In My Life" explore the different emotions and experiences that love can bring into one's life. The opening lines, "Love, it's in my blood, A little dart through my heart, Taking over me," convey the idea that love is deeply embedded within the singer's being, affecting them on a physical and emotional level. The imagery of love crawling up into the singer's philosophy suggests that love has permeated their entire outlook on life and way of thinking.
The next verse shifts the focus to a specific person, referred to as "you" in the song. The imagery of this person being compared to perfume, with references to "Liquid sin on my skin" and "Lilacs on your tongue," evoke a sense of sensuality and intimacy. The idea of this person blooming inside the singer's hungry mouth symbolizes a desire and a longing for them on a deep level.
The following section delves into the pain that accompanies love, with the singer expressing how it is ingrained in their veins and the scars on their guitar. The absence of this person has left the singer feeling empty, with their melodies lacking their former vibrancy. The lyrics paint a picture of heartache and loss, with the pain manifesting itself in various ways in the singer's life.
As the song progresses, the narrative shifts to a moment of reflection and hope. The singer reminisces about the positive memories shared with the person, illustrating how they brought light and beauty into their life. The imagery of the person tattooing the singer's soul with their name suggests a lasting impact on their being. Despite the tears and sorrow, there is a sense of optimism and determination present in the lyrics, as the singer expresses a longing to reunite with their lost love.
In the final verses, the themes of love, hope, and pain come together as the singer declares that love is in their blood and that the person is deeply ingrained within them. The repetition of the phrase "In my blood" emphasizes the lasting impact of this person on the singer's life. The song concludes with a powerful affirmation of love's enduring presence and influence, encapsulating the complex and profound emotions that love can evoke in one's life.
