～The Lair of Madame Tarantula～

Japanese song lyric transliterations/English translations & ヴィジュアル系 [Vijuaru-Kei] (Visual Kei) magazine scans.

All transliterations and translations have been done personally by me.

Each song lyric has its own page (instead of the usual "post" format) containing the transliterations and my English translations on the page in a format that makes it easier for me to post and also allows anyone to copy and paste them for their own use. To find a song, simply click the artist's photo in one of the side columns or the artist's name listed in the rows at the top of this site, which will take you to a complete discography listing (if I've had the time to create it, some are not finished yet) and links for any song I've translated and posted on this site.

As for magazine scans, the scan directories are underneath the discography sections for each artist, in alphabetical order by magazine, then chronological order after that. All editing has been done by me (alignment, cropping, color correction, watermark removal, etc.)

I will try to credit whomever did the scans when I post them (if I happen to know who did the scans, though a lot of these are from over the years and I may not know), so if you happen to not be credited, please e-mail me and let me know. Knowing this, I WILL be removing any watermarks on any scans, as I believe this is intrusive to the scan and actually not definitive of "ownership," so I apologize if this upsets anyone, but scans shouldn't be marred with text that wasn't part of it. If anyone has better quality scans of anything I post/any scans that I might not have, please e-mail and let me know, I will post them! I have a massive amount of scans still left to post, but limited free time right now to do so, so I will try to post as many as I can each day, time allotting. Thank you!

あの娘がふっていた
真赤なスカーフ

誰のためでも　いいじゃないか
みんなその気でいればいい
旅立つ男の胸には
ロマンのかけらがほしいのさ
ラララ……
ラララ……　真赤なスカーフ

Rōmaji Lyrics
———————————————————————————————————————————
Ano ko1 ga futte ita
Makka na sukāfu
Dare no tame da to…omotte iru ka?
Dare no tame demo…ii ja nai ka?
Minna sono ki de ireba ii
Tabidatsu otoko no mune ni wa
Roman no kakera ga hoshii no sa
Ra, ra, ra, ra, ra, ra…ra, ra, ra, ra, ra, ra…2
Ra, ra, ra…makka na sukāfu
———————————————————————————————————————————
Notes:
1 ‘musume’ is what is written, but ‘ko’ is what is sung.
2 ‘Ra, ra, ra…’ is what is written, but ‘Ra, ra, ra, ra, ra, ra…ra, ra, ra, ra, ra, ra…’ is what is sung.

My English Translation
———————————————————————————————————————————
That child/girl1 was falling like
A bright red scarf
Anyone can see the reason why…do you remember?
For the sake of anyone…it is okay, isn’t it?
With that in mind, if it is agreeable with everyone
Fragments of romance that I want
Will die in the hearts of men
La, la, la, la, la, la…la, la, la, la, la, la…2
La, la, la…I fall like a bright red scarf
———————————————————————————————————————————
Notes:
1 ‘girl’ is what is written, but ‘child/girl’ is what is sung.
2 ‘La, la, la…’ is what is written, but ‘La, la, la, la, la, la…la, la, la, la, la, la…’ is what is sung.
