Ooh yeah, ooh

(We can break it down like this)
(We can break it down like this)
(We can break it down like this)
(We can break it down like this)
(We can break it down like this)

遠い空の上 響く雷鳴に震えてる
あの手のぬくもり 記憶
糸手繰る午前二時

今も 目を閉じてあなたの
背中を見つけるけど
追えば消えるのはなぜ?
触れたい 今すぐに 指も髪も

その胸の海で溺れても 強く
抱かれたい 壊されたい
願いは叶わず 夢でも逢えず
濡らして 涙

窓の外は雨 無情に痛み刻み込む
残された写真 手紙
胸騒ぐ夜を憂う
一人 彷徨って あなたに
想い募らせる度
時が止まるのはなぜ?
キスして もう一度 嘘でもいい

絶望と希望 永遠に揺れる
現実と夢 幻
あなたなしで今 生きられない
助けて 涙

今も 目を閉じてあなたの
背中を見つけるけど
追えば消えるのはなぜ?
触れたい 今すぐに 指も髪も

その胸の海で溺れても 強く
抱かれたい 壊されたい
願いは叶わず 夢でも逢えず
濡らして 涙
嘘でもいい
絶望と希望 永遠に揺れる
現実と夢 幻
あなたなしで今 生きられない
助けて 涙 (Helpless Rain)

How would I find this commentary version?
And I agree.
He is giving disclosure about the dark horrors of this world.
This video is remarkable.
The symbolism. And he’s caught in a trap. He certainly is I hope he gets out and I mean totally out of this industry.
‘Last Party’.
Wow that song.
Prophetic.

He’s been called Freddie Mercury’s little brother.
Freddie too. Disclosure in his music.
And despite it all The Show Must Go On.
