得意げに呟いた
心配ないからと
人の少ないホームで
ヘタクソに強がった

唐突に鳴り響く
僕を呼ぶ別れの音
見慣れたその泣き顔も

しばらくは見れないね

声が遮られていく
身振り手振りで伝える
「いってらっしゃい」のサイン

少しずつ小さくなってく
全部置いたまま
悲しくなんかないさと
イヤホンで閉じ込めたよ

見えたんだぼんやりと
暖かい昨日のビジョン
右と左に広がって
僕を連れて行くのさ

僕の横をすり抜けて
遠ざかっていく景色
あの日の僕を置いてく

こぼれた涙一滴の
意味も分からずに
タイムマシンにゆられて
明日も元気でいるよ

こぼれた涙一滴の
意味も分からずに
タイムマシンにゆられて
明日も元気で

溢れる涙抑え切れず
意味も分からずに

タイムマシンにゆられて
また戻ってくるよ

Overall Meaning

The song "Time Machine" by SmileR feat.初音ミク depicts a story of a person who is saying goodbye to someone dear who is leaving on a train. The person is trying to act tough in front of others but is struggling to hide their emotions. The sound of the train whistle suddenly breaks the silence, and the person can no longer hold back their tears. The train takes the dear one away, leaving the person feeling empty and lost. The memories of warmer times with the loved one start playing in the person's mind, and they feel like they are being taken on a journey through time. The person doesn't understand the meaning behind their tears but hopes that they will be able to stay strong until their loved one returns.

The lyrics are simple, yet powerful, and evoke strong emotions in the listeners. The song's theme of love and loss is something that almost everyone can relate to, making it a very popular song in Japan. The use of Hatsune Miku's voice in the song adds an ethereal and otherworldly feel to it, making the emotions even more powerful. The song's melody is also very catchy and adds to the overall appeal of the song.

Woah! I made this channel in 2010 to spread my love of vocaloid music so coming back and seeing so many people talk about this song so fondly and how nostalgic it is makes me really happy. The producer (40mP) actually uploaded this song a year later after this was posted so please make sure to support the original creator: https://www.youtube.com/user/40meterP/

I was listening to this when I was once a 13-year-old eating ice cream and solving simple math problems. Now I'm 22 and have graduated from uni with a Chem-E degree. How time flies <3.

This doesn't even sound like a vocaloid song. It sounds like an actual singer. Sometimes you can tell, but not so with this one.

I wonder why most of the comments are about her panties and stuff? I think this song is amazing and gives off a gentle feeling. I really like it. And to me, the art is actually beautiful. To me it feels like Miku is trying to fix broken things in this world. And when she does, she'll have to be bigger and put more effort. ^^ We love you Miku!

I was introduced to Vocaloid last year by a girl who I eventually began dating. This song, was my favorite. Now when I listen to it all I can think of is her. And, well, I screwed up. I would do anything to go back a year, where I was happy and had the best friend I could have ever asked for.

If the singing sounded more natural, then I could just love some of her songs. This one is certainly one of the better ones, but its really distracting when the times come that they sound unnatural. Some of her songs are filled with them that would be great otherwise.

@lawlicht8092

6y↑3

It really depends on the producer though on how Miku would sounds like, for example MitchieM is famous for his human-like tuning while livetune is for techno-like tuning

@KanonHara

9y↑7

Trivia: This isn't actually song by Hatsune Miku, the Vocaloid. It has actual female vocals in it, with the frequency and pitch edited to sound like Miku.

@youkaiyarn4848

9y↑7

Um, not trying to be rude or anything, but do you have an actual source?

@LuriTV

TheKanonHara The voice is identical to the one in Project Diva f. You can also hear the autotune-modulation here.

@yami_mori

9y↑5

TheKanonHara It's Miku. I own a copy of Project Diva F, And this is the same exact Vocals, Same exact song, same sound, same everything. So yes, it is Miku.

@ou81290211

9y↑4

TheKanonHara It is Miku. Just goes to show you how amazing some producers are; they can make Vocaloid characters sound like real people. ^.^

@RilianeBlume

+TheKanonHara I think shes joking :D It sounds really human like ;DD
