Soon after the hiatus began, an official announcement was made on the website declaring that all activities of the band had been indefinitely suspended
They are also referred to as ELLE.
ELLEGARDEN has a sound strikingly similar to some American Pop Punk bands, and sings in both Japanese and English. Their English lyrics (mostly written by Hosomi) are usually grammatically correct and generally very well pronounced. In the Summer 2006 issue of American J-rock magazine purple SKY (p.24), Takeshi was quoted as saying his English skills were improved by the time he spent working as a computer engineer in first Oakland, California, and later in Japan where he had English speaking co-workers.
ELLEGARDEN has been compared to famous artists of similar style, most notably Sum 41 (ELLEGARDEN was the band's opening act on February 2005 during the Sum 41 Japan Tour 2005), Blink 182 and Good Charlotte. Their popularity comes from the sounds that they bring and the strong emotions they express. Despite these similarities however, they have a wide range of sounds that don't quite fit into a single style, but encompass a decent range of rock sounds.
In 2006 ELLEGARDEN performed in numerous Japanese Summer Music Festivals, such as FUJI ROCK, SUMMER SONIC, NANO MUGEN FES and RISING SUN ROCK FESTIVAL.
Their final tour of 2006 features the American band Allister - the bands became friends during SXSW 2006.
It is difficult to get their tour and live tickets because they become sold out in a very short amount of time.
With the international release of their newest album "Eleven Fire Crackers", Ellegarden is quickly growing in popularity - no doubt aided by their recent U.S. gigs.
In 2018, Ellegarden announced their first tour in 10 years, ending their hiatus. The tour, titled "THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN", is to begin in August at Shinkiba Studio Coast, the same venue as their send-off concert.
Marry Me
ELLEGARDEN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a fine day I am wearing a blue shirts like the sky
I am standing in the line while holding confetti
I see the girl of my dream is shining like the sun beside him
Won't you marry me If I could be a rich boy
Won't you marry me If I could be very handsome
Won't you marry me If I could be a tall guy
You're an idol in high school He was a quarter back
He has sold me a photocopy of your photograph
I am standing in the line while holding confetti
I see the girl of my dream is shining like the sun beside him
Won't you marry me If I could be a rich boy
Won't you marry me If I could be very handsome
Won't you marry me If I could be a tall guy
Don't you marry him if I could be in the next life
Maybe not She don't remember me
Maybe not She don't know how I fell
Maybe not She don't even know my last name
Won't you marry me If I could be a rich boy
Won't you marry me If I could be very handsome
Won't you marry me If I could be a tall guy
Don't you marry him
He's just another stupid in the next life
The song "Marry Me" by ELLEGARDEN is about a man who is hoping to win the heart of the girl of his dreams. He envisions a future where he is wearing a blue shirt like the sky, standing in a line to celebrate their wedding. He holds confetti and looks upon his love, who shines like the sun beside him. He implores her to marry him, offering a series of if statements, if he could be a rich boy, if he could be very handsome, if he could be a tall guy. He pleads with her not to marry the other guy, who he effectively disses as another stupid in the next life.
The second part of the song reveals that the man's dream girl is an idol in high school, and she has sold him a photocopy of her photograph. He still holds out hope that she will choose him over the other guy. He repeats his offer to marry him, repeating the same if statements. However, the final chorus introduces a note of uncertainty and doubt. He wonders whether the girl even remembers his last name or has any idea how he feels about her.
Overall, the song portrays a man who is deeply in love and hoping to convince the girl of his dreams to marry him. Despite his insecurities and doubts, he remains resolute in his desire to win her over.
