"Killer Tune"
sounds like: "ヘイ！ユー!" YUKI
feels like:
pleasant
I took my first real stab at translating lyrics... I looked up an existing translation for parts I wasn't clear on, but made sure to meticulously pick apart the words to be sure how the sentence was formed. Translation is difficult because it's open to interperatation. Some of the existing translation didn't make as much sense to me as my translation did, but only Ringo knows for sure, I suppose. Please enjoy and feel free to contact me if I have made an error. Tokyo Jihen's song "Killer Tune" can be found here on Youtube.
東京事変: キラーチューン
「贅沢は味方」もっと欲しがります負けたって
「ぜいたくはみかた」もっとほしがりますまけたって
“Luxury is an ally.” You say, defeated, wanting more
勝ったってこの感度は揺るがないの
かったってこのかんどはゆるがないの
I won, I say- this sensitivity isn’t shaking
貧しさこそが敵
まずしさこそがてき
Being poor is surely the enemy.
贅沢するにはきっと財布だけじゃ足りないね
ぜいたくするにはきっとさいふだけじゃたりないね
In being luxurious, certainly your wallet alone isn’t sufficient then
だって麗しいのはザラにないの
だってうるわしいのはザラにないの
Even though, being lovely isn’t a rough feeling
洗脳(わな)にご注意
わなにごちゅうい
Be careful of this snare.
ご覧、ほらねわざと逢えたんだ
ごらん、ほらねわざあえたんだ
Please look, look at me, this is the reason we met
季節を使い捨て生きていこう
きせつをつかいすていきていこう
the seasons disposable, we live thereafter
夜も秋も盗めないよ
よるもあきもぬすめないよ
I can't steal the night or the fall
貴方は私の一生もの
あなたはわたしのいっしょうもの
You are my whole existance
贅沢するにはきっと妬まれなきゃいけないね
ぜいたくするにはきっとねたまれなきゃいけないね
In being luxurious, certainly it is wrong if you are not jealous
ちょっと芳しいのを睨まないで
ちょっとかぐわしいのをにらまないで
Don’t stare at the slight scent
欲しがらないなら
ほしがらないなら
If it’s not desired
「今日は一度切り」無駄がなけりゃ意味がない
「きょうはいちどきり」むだがなけりゃいみがない
“Today is a one time occurrence?” It’s futile, there isn’t any signifigance.
絶対美しいのは計れないの
ぜったいうつくしいのははかれないの
Absolute beauty cannot be measured
溢れ出すから
あふれだすから
Because it starts to overflow
ご覧、険しい日本(ここ)で逢えたんだ
ごらん、けわしいここであえたんだ
Please look, we met because of this inaccessible place
探し出してくれて有り難う
さがしだしてくれてありがとう
Thank you for finding that out for me
空も恋も騙せないよ
そらもこいもだませないよ
I can't deceive the heavens or love
私は貴方の一生もの
わたしはあなたのいっしょうもの
I am your whole existance

From Ron Paul's Official Website:
Thank you! (1/4/08)
Yesterday was a remarkable day for Ron Paul, and it wouldn’t have happened without you. For those of you who haven’t yet heard, Ron Paul took over 10% in yesterday’s Iowa caucus, handily beating Rudy Giuliani and finishing right behind both Fred Thompson and John McCain. This despite that Rudy Giuliani made more visits to Iowa than Ron Paul. And, entrance polls showed that Ron Paul took first place (29%) among independent Republicans!
This campaign is just beginning, and we are starting off better than anyone in the “mainstream” media imagined.
Back in February 2007, no one gave Ron Paul any chance to succeed in this race. Ron Paul did not have the name recognition of other candidates, nor the financial resources. Essentially, Ron Paul started at a level of 0% in all 50 states.
But then, as we know, something started to happen. Americans started to hear this message of freedom, and began to galvanize behind the cause. It’s no small feat that we brought in 10% yesterday in Iowa, a double-digit turnout that has brought a lot of commentary – even from Fox News!
Just last night, Greta van Sustern had this to say:
"Ten per cent is not insignificant - that's a huge number. Here you have a candidate that 10 per cent of the people caucused in his party really want him and it's not like he's an insignificant player. He didn't just drop in yesterday to the process, he has been running for president for a long time, and certainly many of the issues he's raised are rather provocative and certainly stimulate the debate; that's not a bad thing."
This election is just getting started. It’s time to mobilize and do what needs to be done. It’s time to win the most important election of our lifetime.
We can only compete in the Super Tuesday primaries and caucuses with your continued support. Help us keep this momentum going with your most generous donation today: https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate.

For the New Year:
Cancer (Jun 21 - Jul 22)
Although it's the start of a new year, you aren't quite ready for what's ahead. Luckily, you can buy some much-needed time by working methodically. You may not be as busy as you thought once you consciously decide to make more effective use of your time. There's no need to get overly stressed. Oddly enough, your future will wait for you.
