how many fates should i accept?

"Season's Call" by HYDE (say it "hy-doh"), who is also the lead vocalist for L'Arc~en~ciel.

I think this is a pretty boring video, at least until around 3:30, but I love the song. It's about two years old. Link to Romaji lyrics (transcribed Japanese); link to English translated lyrics. Yeah, some of the lines are already in English to begin with. Here's a version of the video with (dodgy) subtitles, but the sound isn't as good.

(I wonder why the phrase "shining memory" seems to pop up in so many J-rock/pop songs? It seems like it might be a cliche phrase in Japanese. On another note, I don't think I've ever heard a song by HYDE as a soloist or L'arc~en~ciel as a band that I didn't like.)

If you like it, let me know....
