Welcome to All About Fukuyama Masaharu, part lyrics blog, part fan site, 100% about Masha. It started out as a blog around April 2009 to repost all English lyrics, but after a while I got a bit ambitious and posting many other things I can gather from the net, some pictures, some articles, mostly news in English from the perspective of a fan although you can find some translated articles in here. I do not pretend to say I take credit for the text in here; frankly I just search, gather, summarise, reword and repost. I will always include the name of the fan who said whatever I posted to the best of my ability but as you can see, my sources are mostly from 2 main fan forums of Masha that is not in Japan. My problem is I can't read Japanese or Chinese, but my persistence sometimes does pay off when I just keep looking. You will also find some pictures in here, but all of the pictures you don't see in here are in Facebook, just look for All Abt Masha. I am quite active in that Facebook page, and it is also a place to find information! My main purpose for this blog is for myself; to gather all lyrics in English under one roof. But I am very sure foreign fans can also benefit from the contents in this blog, and without the many wonderful foreign Masha fans who translate, discuss and share whether privately or publicly, this blog will never be what it is today. I am still hoping to find more English lyrics somewhere, although from the looks of it, I will say things have slowed down a bit. Anyway, have a look. If you have any snippet about Masha to share with me, or pictures or lyrics, anything at all, please do not hesitate to do so. Do join in the discussion by using Post A Comment. Do consider sending me your submission of reviews. And for new Masha fans, if you like, do join my Contact List. Thanks for dropping by!
I love this song. His voice sounds pure and simple. Nothing complicated. No oohs, no ahhs and very melodic in melody wise. Why do I have this impression he didn't write this song and it was an old song? This was what I got from reading the youtube comments. And from what I could find from lyricstime, it is listed under the Ya-Ya-Yah category. But the romanji lyrics is different so I don't think it is the same song. But what does the title mean?
So the title means Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. So I suppose for brevity it can be translated as FOUR SEASONS which some googling reveals that in Japanese it is called Shi Ki. Ok, so there is a million ways to say the same thing in Japanese. Much like Chinese too when it comes to Four Seasons. I think I will stick with the literal translation for the time being. You will find this song in his album f.
An addendum. Found the partial lyrics from Masha Heart! The original singer was Shigeru Izumiya (still alive), a song from 1972! Can't find the original song in youtube though. The partially translated lyrics after Read More link thanks to Izumisano of Masha Heart and MashaPlus Info Forums, both links at the bottom of this page. I am too lazy to retype so I just took a screenshot of it. Again, very depressing lyrics and this was his audition song for Amuse audition!!
