lyrics
部屋の壁を青く変えた午後 でもね
髪の色を変えてみた朝のよう
あなたになれたらいいな 叶うよう 絵を描いたの
変わることで求めていた あの娘はまだみてるの
誰になろうと思った？ この手に 世界を見たい
叶うこと呼び起こして 溺れるまで 何も来ないよう
なんにでもなれると思うわ 叶うよう 絵を返すよ
変わるものが見えてきた ここへは 誰も来ないよ
(English translation)
It was the afternoon the wall was painted blue, and yet
Like the morning after I had dyed my hair a new color
Wishing I could be you
I drew a picture to make it so
The girl who sought her desire by changing surfaces
I still see her
“Who do you want to be?”
I want to see the world in the palm of my hand
“Rouse your will. Nothing will come
Until you’re immersed”
I think I can be however I like
So I’ll give back the picture
Now I see what is to be changed
Out of anyone’s reach
“The night you changed your name, who did you see?”

Dizzy Atmosphere
by Dave Douglassupported by 535 fans who also own “Joy”
This is a wonderful album! Dave Douglas is one of my heroes. He's more than a great musician. He has a vision for the music and a feeling for putting together a group which is unique. So, beside Joey Baron (another heavyweight and one of my absolute favourite drummers) he invited some young cats to this session. They play just great and make sure that this music sounds totally fresh, whilst at the same time being deeply rooted in the jazz tradition.
