Hi, as I am very intensively featuring Ichiro in this Japanese language course,  I remembered this song.

"Tokyo Incident" (東京事変 "Tokyo Jihen" in Japanese) is one of my favorite Japanese rock/pops group, especially because of the vocal, Ringo Shiina. 

The group is formed on 2003 and split up in 2012.  (Ringo continues solo activity) 

Ringo, who also writes lyrics of all her songs, stated with the release of this song "Superstar" that she is an admirer of Ichiro and the song is inspired by him. 

This video clip was publicized on the official Youtube channel of the band soon after his retirement announcement.

Obviously they are praising Ichiro!

Following is a part of the lyric, which I extracted in my lesson in Rooma-ji and in Hiragana. 


<Roma ji>

Mirai wa mugendai sa

Jibun de tsukutte iku

Tabun anata wa soo iu to wakatte iru noni

Honno chotto zawameita asa ni

Koe o nakusu no

Watashi wa anata no tsuyoku hikaru manako omoidasu keredo

Moshimo aetato shite yorokobe naiyo

Kayowai kyoo no watashi dewa

Koredewa mada


Key Words

Mirai 未来　future

Shirankao　知らん顔 Pretend to know nothing

Jibunde　自分で　by oneself

Honno Chotto　ほんの ちょっと　just a little bit　

Zawameku ざわめく make noise (mentally confused )

Koe o nakusu　声をなくす lose one's voice 

Tsuyoku hikaru　強く光る shine brightly

Manako　まなこ eyes

Omoidasu　思い出す remember 

Moshimo ... ta toshite　もしも…たとして Even if ...

Kayowai　かよわい weak, delicate
