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 have a feeling the title vs. ~the spiral of perception and pleasure~ is a direct translation from the Japanese title, vs. ~chikaku to kairaku no rasen~. It makes a bit of sense though. This is one of the many versions of the same tune (slow, fast, techno, guitar, piano, etc) which you can find in the Galileo soundtrack. You will hear this music often in the series, especially if I remember correctly, when Yukawa sensei figured something out and does his formula writing scene. That formula writing scene is aptly not in the movie version but the slower version of this music may be, can't confirm yet until I rewatch it. It is pure instrumental by the way and the above video is from his 2007 concert where he changed the arrangement a bit. I am not sure if he written or co-written this piece. I have a feeling he may have co-written it at the very least. Thanks to Tammydoggie in the comments section, Masha indeed wrote this instrumental piece together with 2 other songs (one is Kiss Shite and the other Kakusei Moment which I will be posting soon). Fantastic stuff! So now he is into movie soundtrack!
Click Read More for the soundtrack version as well as the slower tempo version. I find there are certain dissimilarities between the slower tempo called Guitar & Piano Version and the faster tempo one which is as titled above. But since they're both same titles but different tempo, I am posting it in here. If the slower tempo is not the same as this one, do inform me so that I can repost it in it own post. But I do think they're the same, except one is faster and the other used in slower, sadder and quieter scenes.

The Soundtrack version - Faster tempo
The Sountrack version - Piano & Guitar version - Slower tempo

Hi Funn,
Although Masha did not write the entire soundtrack for Galileo, he wrote this song (vs.~), Kiss Shite and Kakusei Moment (覚醒モーメント - another instrumental). They are all his. Cheers!
