hiro' - 44 ~God's Lonely Man~

Rock-ish tune. Arrangement, lyrics, song, everything (except for the image) by hiro'.

Originally sung by Gakupo. hiro' wrote on his blog:
僕が何十回、何百回と見ている映画「タクシードライバー」の主人公についてです。
44マグナムについては、「ダーティハリー」の影響もあって憧れが強いのかもしれません。
曲と合わさって、淋しげな感じ、空虚な感じが出せていればいいなぁと思っています。

This is about the protagonist of the movie "Taxi Driver", a movie I've seen a million times now. The 44 magnum probably became a desirable object because of "Dirty Harry"...
Matching the lyrics with the tune, I hoped to create a lonely, empty feeling.

You can listen to the vocaloid version here (YT video).

hiro' - 夢の後 (Yume no Ato)

Acoustic guitar-tune. Lyrics, song, music, everything by hiro'.


This song can be found on the CD "Stella", that contains 10 songs all composed and sung by hiro'. The CD is available on amazon (jp), among other places.

Originally sung by Luka, hiro' said on his blog (back in 2012):
今回の曲は、アナログサウンド(アコギ)にデジタルヴォイス(ボカロ)というコンセプトの作品です。
『夢の後』という曲は自分の事を書いている歌詞で思い入れが物凄く強いので、僕が歌ったら感情を込めすぎてしまうのは明白なので、あっさり歌わせているこの形くらいがリスナー的には聴きやすいのかも、と思ったりもします。

This tune is written with the idea of mixing analogue (acoustic guitar) with digital (Vocaloid). The lyrics to "after the dream" are laden with personal sentiments, so it is obvious that when I sing it I'll put in too much emotion, so I thought this version would be easier on the listener's ears.

The song later appeared in Karaoke-boxes all over the country and hiro' decided to sing it himself, which is the video above. For the Vocaloid version, click here (YT vid).

hiro' - 静寂の音 (Seijaku no Oto)



Song, lyrics, tune, everything by hiro'

The band-edition of this song can be found on the CD "Stella", that contains 10 songs all composed and sung by hiro'. The CD is available on amazon (jp), among other places.


About the song, hiro' wrote on his blog:
(...) 周りの景色がモノクロになり、しゃべり声も物音もなくなり、目の前が真っ白に輝いて、無の音「静寂の音」が聴こえる時がテーマです。(...)歌詞の解釈は僕の言う以外に捉えてもらってもいいんですが、僕的には、「光の中で手探りしても結局誰ともつながれない、孤独の闇を切り裂いてもそこにはまた孤独があるだけ」という感じです。

The theme is the moment when the surroundings become monochrome, all voices and sounds disappear, everything in front of ones eyes become a bright white and in the sound of nothingness you can hear "the sound of silence".
(...) One can interpret the lyrics any way other then how I explain them, but for me personally they hold the following meaning: "even when groping around in the light, in the end one cannot connecting to anyone. Even when cutting through the darkness of loneliness, there still is only loneliness beyond that."
