1. the pillows (ザ・ピロウズ) are an alternative rock band from Hokkaidō, Japan, best known outside Japan for their contributions to the soundtrack of the anime series FLCL (Fooly Cooly).
They consist of 山中さわお (Sawao Yamanaka) -vocals & guitar-, 真鍋吉明 (Yoshiaki Manabe) -guitar-, 佐藤シンイチロウ (Shinichiro Sato) -drums-.

The band officially formed on September 16, 1989 as a four-man group. The fourth man and original bassist, 上田ケンジ (Kenji Ueda), left the band in 1992 to become a music producer and do solo work. Since then, 鹿島達也 (Tatsuya Kashima) and later 鈴木淳 (Jun Suzuki) have taken his place as supporting bassists. Neither Kashima nor Suzuki have been named official members out of respect for Ueda.

Thank you my twilight
The Pillows Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Life Life is beautiful
僕のルーレット回り続けてる
She She is wonderful
その瞳に今を映したい
迷わないでもぎ取った予感を
誰かと待ち合わせてるみたいに
見えたなら間違いじゃない
キミを待ってたんだ

Life Life is beautiful
話すように歌い続けてる
She She is wonderful
その言葉は闇を照らす程
眩しくて涙がこぼれた
時折誰かが問う
'いつまでどこまで向かう気か'と
Baby どこまででも

Life Life is beautiful
僕のルーレット回り続けてる
She She is wonderful
その瞳に今を映したい
迷わないでもぎ取った予感を
奇跡は起こらなくても充分だぜ
今日が最後の日でも
Thank you, my twilight
Thank you, my twilight ...
Thank you, my twilight

Thank you, my twilight ...
Thank you, my twilight

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Pillows' song "Thank you my twilight" expresses gratitude, awe, and appreciation towards life and a particular person or experience. The initial lines of "Life Life is beautiful, 僕のルーレット回り続けてる (Life, life is beautiful, My roulette keeps turning)" depicts a spinning roulette wheel, symbolizing the unpredictable nature of life. The mention of "She She is wonderful, その瞳に今を映したい (She, she is wonderful, I want to reflect this moment in her eyes)" signifies the special person or experience that the singer wants to hold on to, forever capturing this beautiful moment.

The song also deals with the idea of taking chances and pursuing the unexpected, as illustrated through the lines, "キミを待ってたんだ (I've been waiting for you)," and "Baby どこまででも (Baby, I'll go anywhere)." This signifies an open and adventurous mindset towards life, embracing the uncertainty of what lies ahead. The phrase "Thank you, my twilight" is repeated throughout the song, indicating the appreciation and gratitude towards the person, experience, or life itself. The song ends with the same phrase, but interestingly enough, it's left unfinished, creating a feeling of openness and possibility.
