Ikimonogakari - Natsuzora Graffiti (30MB, for PSP/Quicktime) | YouTube version

I've been a fan of this group ever since I heard their first single, Sakura. This latest single is actually apart of two tracks single, Natsuzora Graffiti/Seishun Line. Seishun Line is pretty good as well but between the two, I prefer Natsuzora Graffiti mostly because it has more energy and the upbeat tune is pleasant to listen to. The PV is also pretty good even though it's not extraordinary. I always love PV which shows quiet beach/seaside area and this one has it in spade. The group also has undergone a slight transformation with the lead singer, Yoshioka Kiyoe, looking a lot more mature than her appearance in the group's other PV. Looking at the PV makes me want to just pack my travel bag and go to some secluded beach somewhere.

Kanji/Kana version

まぶしい太陽のキラメキのなかで
とびきり熱いままで恋をしたいよ

タイムマシンの針を壊して
永遠の夏を手に入れたんだ
泳げないなんて知らなかったよ
不器用なふたりの夏空グラフィティ

地球が呼吸を始めて
100秒たったらこの海に飛び込むよ
その瞬間(とき) きっと伝えるよ笑っていて
止まらないこの気持ち
あなたとなら飛べるよ

まぶしい太陽のキラメキのなかで
とびきり熱いままで恋をしたいよ
この手をいつまでも離しちゃいけないのは
あなたひとりだけだよ
抱きしめていて

宝物はねたくさんの想い出
笑いあえたらそれだけでいい
砂がかかったあたしの頬を
照れた顔してはらってくれた

神様の秘密のカバンから
夏だけ盗んでふたりで並べよう
「いつまでも続けばいいのに」言ったでしょう
振り切れたこの気持ち白い雲を越えてく

はじけた真夏のトキメキのなかで
太陽逃げ出すまで遊んでいたいよ
この手を青空(そら)まで連れていって
欲しいのはあなたひとりだけだよ
ふたりでいたい

世界でいちばん大好きなあなたが
あたしのいちばん大切なひとだよ
その手をどんなときも信じているのは
あたしひとりだけだよ

Romaji version

Mabushii taiyou no kirameki no naka de
Tobikiri atsui mama de koi wo shitai yo

Taimu mashin* no hari wo kowashite
Eien no natsu wo te ni iretanda
Oyogenai nante shiranakatta yo
Bukiyou na futari no natsuzora graffiti

Chikyuu ga kokyuu wo hajimete
Hyakubyou tattara kono umi ni tobikomu yo
Sono toki kitto tsutaeru yo waratteite
Tomaranai, kono kimochi
Anata to nara, toberu yo

Mabushii taiyou no kirameki no naka de
Tobikiri atsui mama de koi wo shitai yo
Kono te wo, itsu made mo hanashicha ikenai no wa
Anata, hitori dake da yo
Dakishimeteite

Takaramono wa ne, takusan no omoide
Warai aetara, sore dake de ii
Suna ga kakatta, atashi no hoho wo
Tereta kaoshite, haratte kureta

Kami-sama no himitsu no kaban kara
Natsu dake nusunde futari de narabeyou
"Itsu made mo tsudzukeba ii no ni" itta deshou?
Furikireta, kono kimochi, shiroi kumo wo koeteku

Hajiketa manatsu no tokimeki no naka de
Taiyou nigedasu made asonde itai yo
Kono te wo, sora made tsurete itte
Hoshii no wa, anata hitori dake da yo
Futari de itai

Sekai de ichi-ban daisuki na anata ga
Atashi no ichi-ban taisetsu na hito da yo
Sono te wo donna toki mo shinjite iru no wa
Atashi hitori dake da yo

Mabushii taiyou no kirameki no naka de
Tobikiri atsui mama de koi wo shitai yo
Kono te wo, itsu made mo hanashicha ikenai no wa
Anata hitori dake da yo
Dakishimeteite

They sang the Bleach ending called Hanabi. I'm impressed with Natsuzora Graffiti. After listening to this, I don't want summer vacation to end now.
