Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mushi-P's song "Color" are an invitation to open up and express oneself authentically. The repeated lines of "Let me see the color of your eyes, mind, heart" signify a desire to understand someone in their entirety, beyond surface-level appearances. It is an invitation for the other person to share their inner world and emotions, to reveal the unique aspects that make them who they are. The chorus emphasizes this longing for connection and understanding, asking the listener to tell the artist about their feelings, rhythm, sadness, weakness, culture, nature, memories, and more.


The song suggests that one's true essence lies in their emotions, experiences, and individuality. By sharing these aspects, a deeper connection can be established. It encourages listeners to be vulnerable and open with others, as that is where true understanding and empathy can be found. The repetition of the phrase "Tell me all about" emphasizes the artist's eagerness to listen and create a space for genuine self-expression.


Overall, "Color" highlights the importance of embracing diversity, individuality, and personal experiences. It promotes the idea that by understanding and appreciating each other's unique colors, we can foster deeper connections and contribute to a more compassionate society.

(Translated from English) 私はこれを、ビデオの中の生き物は嫉妬しているのではないと解釈した!

その代わり、彼は "DIMORPHUS EXPRESSION "として知られる何かを経験しているのだ。これは、涙が溢れるほど嬉しくなるときに起こる現象である!あるいは、誰かが "CUTE AGGRESSION "を経験しているときだ。嬉しさのあまり、それを抑えることができない!脳がそれを処理できず、ポジティブな感情がネガティブな感情に変わってしまう!その逆もある!

私はこのように解釈していたのですが、嫉妬と考えるとビデオの印象がガラッと変わりますね!面白い!

すみません、日本語でこんな言葉があるかどうかわからないので、英語で書いてみました。

【色彩電気】歌詞↓(読みにくい漢字には読みを振ってます)

身体はなくて 色を纏(まと)うよ
微かに放つ電気を頼りにして
瓦(かわら)やガラス 噛んで飲み込む
好みの色が欲しくて彷徨(さまよ)ってる

琥珀の粒を 見つけたよ
首に模様を投映して
いっぱい欲しいな 僕の色
色彩電気 もっともっと

知りたいな 知りたいな
いろんな色を知りたいな
輝いて 不安なキモチとバイバイしたいの
見つけては 食べましょう
色で身体を映しましょう
みんな見て こんなに楽しくって美しいの
虹の吐息の スカーフが
風に靡(なび)いて僕を撫でる

身体ができた 嬉しくなるよ
この星にある全ての色が欲しい
レモンの色に 出会えないまま
草臥(くたび)れて歩けなくなった時にさ

現れたんだ その子供
黄色の雨具(あまぐ)を羽織ってる
嬉しくなって 高鳴るよ
僕はその子を飲み込んだ

なりたいな なりたいな
いろんな色になりたいな
穏やかで 優しい黄色に僕はなりたいな
見つけては 食べましょう
色で身体を映しましょう
生命(いのち)さえ 跡形もなく消化してしまいましょう
雨具の色よ 手足まで 染みろや染みろ 色を纏(まと)え

おかしいな おかしいな
身体が赤く染まってく
黄色の子供 食べたのに
赤く染まって 消えないよ

なりたいな なりたいな
元の姿に なりたいな
純粋で 透き通る電気に
僕はなりたいな
飲み干すよ いつまでも
死ぬまで水を飲んでるよ
赤色が 消えなくてぐるりと目は 上を向いた
彩る星に 生まれたのに
命はこうも強く赤く



@user-ow2mn8rc8h

色を食べるというのは色を奪うということ。
雨具(=黄色)だけじゃなくて子供まで食べてしまった
→色は、その色が存在している個体の生きてきた背景から作られている。だから黄色の中でも子供が持っている黄色が魅力的だったから子供まで食べてしまった。
元の姿に戻りたいな
→透明であること(=もともとの僕)の美しさに気づく。…奪ってきた色より自分が持っている、又は生成する色の方が美しい。
「彩る星に生まれたのに命はこうも強く赤く」で締められている。これは僕の主観でこの世界の残酷さを語っているように思える。子供が黄色に彩られていると思って食べれば、僕の身体は真っ赤になったもんだから表面上しか彩られてないのかと落胆し、自分の行動を後悔。目に見えるものが真実とは限らないと皮肉に歌っている。

彩るというのは物理的に無理矢理奪うものではなくて、個体が独自に生み出して纏っているオーラだということに早く気づければ良かったのかなあ

初めて解釈してみたけども解釈って難しいですね…みんなすっごいや!😋



@thepeppermiint7988

this is a very abstract song, and everyone can understand it different, based on their experiences. this is how I interpreted it!

I don't think the little monster represents a greedy person, I believe it represents an ambitious one. like a child, that takes their understanding and opinions based on those around them. they're ambitious and want to be big, in a way. it could be influence, it could be knowledge, something like that.

but, as represented at the last part of the song, something happens.

maybe they discover something they shouldn't, or they made a big mistake. and the thing is, it WASN'T out of malice, it was out of ignorance. the monster just wanted to have the color yellow. if they knew the consequences, they probably wouldn't have eaten the child. but now its too late, as they will always be the 'child-eating monster'. what the moster did was wrong, yes, but they didn't know better.

because of that bad experience, they regret everything. they want to go back to before they were ambitious. they want to become pure and clean again, even at the cost of their individuality.

this... really spoke to me. its a really great song. thank you, mushipさん :))



@user-bs1of9zj9u

なんか…整形依存になった人の歌みたい…
素敵な顔になりたくて、
パーツを変えては繰り返して
最後の「黄色の子供を食べたのに
赤くなった」のところは、
綺麗な顔を望んだのに、
気づいたら化け物になっていた。
自分は知らない誰か(の顔)だった。
みたいな…
勝手な解釈だから分からないけど、
最後は元の自分の顔に戻りたくて
足掻いてるように見てる…
曲の雰囲気が怖いとか恐怖とかだと
思いきや狂気や不思議な感じ
もあるから、そういう意味も踏まえてなのかな…?

@luxill0s

I know this song is relatively old based on comment frequency and someone’s probably done another theory similar to this, but I feel like the song can be interpreted in a different way:

Someone puts on “colors” (emotions) for other people (“I don’t have a body, so I put on colors”, “I project the pattern onto my neck”, “I’ll project my body with all these colors”) depending on what’s around them (“Let’s keep eating what I’ve found”). This person might also be manipulative (“I want a color of my liking, so I roam around”) or just want someone / something that can bring them an emotion that isn’t fleeting, barely existent, or isn’t there at all. They want to do this to keep up the idea that everyone should experience emotion, including them, but their attempts come off as fake / shallow (“Look everyone! Isn’t this fun and beautiful?”).

Eventually, they can never pretend to be happy (“But I still haven’t come across the color of lemons yet” “and when I got tired and couldn’t walk anymore”), and grow tired of faking their emotions. Whenever they pretend to be that emotion, they “don’t digest it” “put it on like a raincoat” (they don’t actually feel it, it’s just a mask). However, they want to feel that emotion (“I want enough to fill me up, my very own color”) and might be able to feel other emotions at this point (“I got a body, and now I’m happy”) or have tricked themselves into believing this.

They finally meet someone who is happy. This makes them angry (see how the lyrics at 2:23 conflict with the background imagery, they aren’t actually happy, the creature looks mad, is running, the text is bright red) because they cannot feel happiness themselves, so they decide to destroy (eat) that person’s happiness, which only makes them angrier and sad instead of happy.
This might be a literal reference to “offing” the child or just treating them terribly. Maybe also a car crash considering the sort of glass-metal-breaking sound at the “splash” at 3:02, also the child was wearing a raincoat so they may have been walking across the street cheerfully to school.

At 3:37 they say they want to become what they were before, “pure, transparent electricity”, what they were before they pretended to be other things in order to cater to other people. Their image in the background is red and continues to get continuously more warped, maybe regret or anger for what they’ve done or that they got caught?

3:43 “I’ll be drinking water forever, until the day I die” might be a metaphor for how water dilutes paint, they can’t feel their own emotions as strongly as others anymore because they don’t know what’s theirs and what’s others.

At 3:52 their eyes roll up in their head. Maybe they’ve died?

Also the flashes of animals at 3:58. Adult violence and sometimes psychopathy / sociopathy that leads to m*rder (which would explain why they can’t feel anything but “red” anger or nothing at all) is sometimes associated with animal abuse as a young child.

Also note how it changed from “I want to know all the colors” to “I want to BECOME all the colors”. Maybe at first they just wanted to know what they were and then started to actually crave feeling them?

This is just my interpretation though so maybe I’m either going insane or not idk

"But i still haven't come across the color of lemons yet."
Why don't you eat a lemon instead of a child then?

2:22の表情が嬉しいというよりも怒ってるようにみえるのは「黄色を見つけた嬉しさ」よりも「黄色を持っていることに対する嫉妬心」の方が強いからかなと思った。この歌は本当に色んな解釈できて楽しい。

@user-qh8jn1jy6u

天才すぎる

@user-um3vr5it9x

yellowって嫉妬深いみたいな意味もあったと思う、そこから来てるのかも
