I can’t beat Airman!
This video is in no way no new - but it’s so awesome I felt compelled to post it, in case any of you poor souls out there had managed to miss out on it. I don’t really think my translation does the lyrics justice, but at least those of you who are Japanese impaired can get a hang of what it’s about. Without further ado, I give you: Team Nekokan’s amazingly awesome song (and video!) “Airman ga Taosenai” (I can’t beat Airman).
?????????? ????????
I’m stuck replaying the same screen,
???????????????
And every time, I die in the same place
??????????
Without giving up,
???????????
I challenge the vanishing platforms
?????????
But I just fall down immediately
????2?????
If only I had ITEM-2,
????????????????
I could easily make it to the other side, but
?????????????
No matter how many times I try,
???????????
I can’t beat Airman!
??????????????????
No matter how many times I try, I can’t avoid those tornadoes
??????????????
Even when I attack from behind,
???????????
Eventually I’m blown away by the wind
???????????????
Even if I try the pause trick,
??????????????
I’m no match for his tornadoes
????????????
So to make sure I win next time,
??E?????????????
I’m saving my [E] until the end
??????????????????
My life is already low
??????????E????
And every time, I need use my [E]
?????????????????????
Without giving up, I can make it to Airman, but
????????????
I quickly run out of lives…
???????????
If only I had Leaf Shield
???????????????
I could easily but Airman, but
?????????????
No matter how many times I try,
???????????
I can’t beat Woodman!
?????????????????e?
No matter how many times I try, I can’t avoid those falling leaves
????????????????
Even when I fall back
????????????
Eventually he closes the distance
???????????????
Even when I try the pause trick
???????????????
I can’t evade his jumps
????????????
So to make sure I win next time,
??E?????????????
I’m saving my [E] until the end
????2?????
If only I had ITEM-2,

My latest obsession: Adam Tensta
A while ago, something very very unusual happened. I was casually flipping through channels on the TV when I happened upon a music video that I liked so much that I actually took note of its name and who the artist was. The song was “My Cool” by Adam Tensta, who’s apparently this up-and-coming star in Swedish hip-hop. I ended up downloading the complete album (”It’s a Tensta Thing”) which, while somewhat uneven, is definitely worth listening to. I very rarely download music on a whim like this, but I’m glad I did as I’ve barely been able to get “My Cool” and “They Wanna Know” out of my head since.
I’ll let you decide whether my taste in music is horrible or not - here are the videos to the two songs.
