PSY S' musical style was an experimental mixture of electronic synthesizers, highly accomplished electric guitar riffs and haunting, piercing vocals.
PSY S is perhaps best known in the west for their soundtrack to the cult favourite anime title To-y (adapted from Atsushi Kamijo's popular 1980s manga) and City Hunter 2 opening song Angel Night. The anime's opening theme, Lemon no Yuuki, and ending song Cubic Lovers are seen amongst western anime fans and Jpop enthusiasts as two of PSY S' all-time greatest songs. Also of note is the fact that frontman Masaya Matsuura went on to create several famous video games for the Sony Playstation.
Romeo
PSY·S Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
くだけて消えていく
曖昧な夢 耳に飾って
歩いていく ドール達
Romeo 私をみつけて
知ってるはずのくちづけで
Romeo あなたを知らせて
初めてのメロディーで
地球儀廻して夜明けを待つ窓辺
幻をみつめて
眠れない理由(わけ)
抱いたままで
踊る影一つ
Romeo 私をみつけて
大海(うみ)のひとしずくを
Romeo2人を感じて
初めての想いで
時の砂漠にうもれる前に
The lyrics to PSY・S's song "Romeo" describe a crowded city street in the middle of the night, where vague dreams hang in the air and dolls walk among the masses. The singer is searching for someone, calling out for Romeo to find her with a familiar kiss. She longs to be known by him, to be connected with him through their first melody, before the magic of time erases their connection. The second verse shifts to a different setting, where the singer is waiting for dawn by a window, holding onto a dream that keeps her awake. She dances alone in the shadows, still seeking her Romeo. She calls out to him again, feeling the presence of both herself and him within a single drop of the ocean. She wants to hold onto this feeling, their first emotions together, before they're buried in the sands of time.
Overall, the song seems to be about the yearning for connection and the desire to hold onto something fleeting before it's lost forever. The imagery of crowded, dark streets and waiting for dawn evoke a sense of urgency, of wanting to grasp onto something tangible before it's too late. The idea of a first melody and a familiar kiss also suggest a longing for familiarity and comfort in the midst of the chaos.
