I was bored, and felt compelled to blog something, so here’s a little Olivia Lufkin

Olivia is set to release a new mini album, “Trinka Trinka”, on September 17th.The mini-album features a new song called “RAIN”, which is being used as the new ending theme to K-tai Investigator 7, as well five previously unheard tracks. The album will not, however, feature the highly anticipated song “Real Love” which was premiered during her concert in Paris.~ taken from wiki

Olivia Lufkin Picture

This girl is amazing, I adore her vocals, her lyrics, and the scores are always amazing.

My current 3 favorite songs of hers:

a little pain – 163 plays

Celestial Delinquent – 130 plays

Space Halo – 127 plays

Mind you, this was after my itunes ate the information, so this has been over 2 weeks, the numbers were higher… oh well.

a little pain (english translation taken from songmeanings.net)

Travel to the moon
You’re asleep, as you work out your dreams
There’s no one here
While the light of the stars toys with me

In order to become strong
I have to remember how to smile
If we’re together, I can do it

Realize that…
I’m here waiting for you
Even if the future is different from now
I’m here waiting for you
I keep on shouting
I’m sure all I have to do
Is pull in the thread that connects our hearts
So the person I was back then
Would open her eyes
No need to cry

*my comments*I absolutely love this part. It’s self realization, she knows she’s changed, but she wants it to be the way it was back then. She’s persevering, and trying to pull on the thread, and in Japanese culture there is a belief that everyone is connected to their lover by a red string, so that’s the thread.
Travel in silence
I can reach you if I stretch out my hands
The only memory I have of you
Is so far away

I can hear your voice
If I close my eyes
Even a little pain
Would be nice

*my comments*The “even a little pain would be nice” reminds me of that Linkin Park song “numb”  ‘I’ve become so numb, I can’t feel you there, and become so tired so much more aware’ Which could go back to the paragraph before it where she says she can reach him if she stretches out her hands, but he’s so far away, almost like giving up, or being tired perhaps?
Look at me
I’m here waiting for you
Even if you get lost, blown away by the wind
I’m here waiting for you
I look up at the sky
I was protecting my heart
With outstretched hands
Until the person you were back then
Looked back
No need to cry

*my comments*I love this paragraph as well, it’s a bit of ‘against all odds’ kind of thing. Hoping for him to return to the person she fell in love with.

(Feel something, feel nothing
Listen closely, listen closely)
Wide open ears
Disarm the dream tickler
In the constant moment
(You will find me where it’s quiet
Listen closely, listen closely)
Let the blood flow
Through all the spaces
Of the universe

Realize that…
I’m here waiting for you
Even if the future is different from now
I’m here waiting for you
I keep on shouting
I’m sure all I have to do
Is pull in the thread that connects our hearts
So the person I was back then
Would open her eyes
No need to cry

*my comments, overall* It’s just an amazing song, I love it so much, it blows me away. The music is amazing, the vocals are amazing, the lyrics are amazing.

Celestial Delinquent

You live in a home
with running water,
air conditioner and T.V.
you have nothing to give
you have nothing to say
so you sing-a-ling-a-long
everything is alright
how can one person change the world?
i have to pay my bills
i gotta go to work
the earth is dying
i am so ashamed
we are all to blame
we must raise humane consciousness

i want to be up high up with the sun
disappear completely into love
i want to be up high up where i can
see the secret roads

all you selfish people
who think of nothing but money,
realize how angry and stressed
you are all the time
when you’re angry you only see things
from a bad angle
that’s why you are going crazy
that why you feel like shit
you’ll never find true happiness
in this state of mind

i want to be up high up with the sun
disappear completely into love
i want to be up high up where i can
see the secret roads

what’s most important is
where we were born, where we grow,
where we live
without the earth we are extinct
instead of finding ways to live on other planets,
we have to find a way to live on our own
instead of spending so much money on sending space shuttles into space and making weapons for war,
why don’t we use if for making solar electricity, homes, cars, appliances
someone is going to have to give in
somebody is going to lose money
we can’t be greedy
we can’t be lazy
we have to learn to give and help each other
and rise above this world we created
rise above fear
we need to share to save the human race
take the human race into a higher vibration

i want to be up high up with the sun
disappear completely into love
i want to be up high up where i can
see the secret roads

*my comments, overall* I’m not going to go this piece by piece, but it’s a nice reminder that we can be free from the selfishness of the human world if we reconnect to the earth and start caring for it. If we could just take a minute and slow down we could not only save the earth (by finding more efficient ways to do things) but also in order to help out our own stress. Instead, we’re so centered around what we thing should be daily life and what we thinkk are necessities, when in reality, we don’t need them. I’m a perfect example of things I think I need, but actually know I really don’t. Example: my camera, my cellphone, my DS, my iPod, my computer. Though it’s really hard to see just what EXACTLY we need, because society tells us we need these things. What I mean is, I can’t get rid of my computer, because the teachers in my school don’t give credit to papers that aren’t printed on a computer and since I can’t stay after school for limitless hours a day to work on all of the numerous things (the school closes after only a few hours after the school day ends) most of the stuff wouldn’t be completed. We spend so much money on ‘protecting’ ourselves by making better weapons, but finding out where we can steal resources from, be it another Continent or something along the lines of another planet. This song is pretty straight forward, but I think more people need to look at it and realize the destruction we’ve all caused, not that anyone will do anything about it.

Space Halo

You tell me you love me I watch you look out the window
Into the luminous blue sky
With eyes of loneliness
As if you had to go

What will it take to win your smile?
Does it help for you to know
That nothing can break my love for you
Believe in me, if you need to believe

Look into my eyes
Deep in my eyes

I wish you would let go
Of your space halo
Come down here and live with me.
Live with me

The fear begins to creep in
The distance begin to grow
I can’t find the right words to say
I need to know it’s okay
Okay

How am I suppose to hold you at ease
How am I suppose to know you love me
How am I suppose to hold you at ease
How am I suppose to know you love me
How am I suppose to hold you at ease
How am I suppose to know you love me

I wish I could make you
Truly happy
So you would never want to
Leave this world

I wish you would let go
Of your space halo
Come down here and live with me.
Live with me

*my comments, overall* It’s basically just a song about whether or not to fall into love, and wanting someone to just let go and not be so worried. It’s about a relationship and because one of them isn’t sure, it creates distance between them.

My conclusion… OLIVIA LUFKIN is … AMAZING!!!
