ANISAMA FRIENDS – Butter-Fly feat. angela × オーイシマサヨシ × 奥井雅美 × TrySail × FLOW / THE FIRST TAKE
Great to work with you So, we’re here at THE FIRST TAKE I’m so psyched Psyched? Yes Don’t you ever get nervous? I mean, we get to sing this song Oh I see, I see And I’ve been looking forward to performing together with ANISAMA FRIENDS—such a wonderful lineup Yes So, this anthem song Yes Shall we get going? Let’s Let’s go 1, 2, 3 In an empty world, after the end of an endless dream That’s right—these endearing feelings seem to falter, but Even these fragile wings filled with images that still stay Can fly away On my love Alright, we’re ANISAMA FRIENDS Now let’s get THE FIRST TAKE party rolling By turning into a happy butterfly and riding on a sparkling wind Now, I’m on my way to see you We’re better off forgetting what’s unnecessary There’s no more time left to play it cool What—WOW WOW Will reach these skies? But—WOW WOW We don’t even know what tomorrow brings In an empty world, after the end of an endless dream That’s right—these endearing feelings seem to falter, but Even these fragile wings filled with images that still stay Can fly away On my love By turning into a giddy butterfly and riding on an unwavering wind I’ll travel to the farthest ends of the earth to see you Vague words can work surprisingly well So I shouted as I listened to a hit song What—WOW WOW Will resonate in this city? But—WOW WOW There’s no point in holding on to expectations In a disheartening world, after the end of an endless dream That’s right—being unconventional isn’t so bad Even these awkward wings stained by images that still stay Can fly away On my love Now, ANISAMA FRIENDS, are you having a blast? C’mon all of you watching, let’s get wild! Together! In an empty world, after the end of an endless dream That’s right—these endearing feelings seem to falter, but Even these fragile wings filled with images that still stay Can fly away Oh yeah In a disheartening world, after the end of an endless dream That’s right—being unconventional isn’t so bad Even these awkward wings stained by images that still stay Can fly away On my love Thank you!

奥井さんすき🫶🏻
この名曲を聴くと今でもパルモンがミミを追いかけるシーンが何度も蘇って、リアルタイムでデジモンを見てたあの頃の自分に戻してくれる😢
ありがとうデジモン、ありがとう和田光司。
I'm not crying 😭
もうお盆になってるし
和田さん チョロっと出てきてくれても
いいんですよ? ファンは待ってます
Wada-sensei might be gone, but this song and his spirit will be with us for a long long time!
雨宮天さんの歯をペロペロしたくて堪らないよ❤
おいおい、マーが来ちまったよ
アンセムだ、、。
お盆の季節も相まって、
和田sanへの送り火代わりになりましたね💐
素敵な唄声を聴けて歓喜です❤
Even here in the US, Digimon fans love Butter-fly. It is my favorite song of all time, and it is such a shame that a singer as legendary as Koji Wada has passed. I wish I could've seen him live one day, and unfortunately that will never happen. Today also happens to be the 26th anniversary of Digimon Adventure in the west. Coincidence or not, thank you for posting this today. Thank you for singing this amazing song.
和田さんも叫んどるやろな
それぞれが〜度ハモリ重ねるのすごいな。
盆にあげるのは意図的だろな
