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!
This best of or compilation album was released in 1999, featuring many great songs up until that date. It's a huge collection of 28 songs over 2 CDs from the info I could see and you will find remixes, live versions as well as studio versions as well. Some of my favourites are Good Night, It's Only Love, Dear, Hello, Message to the ever popular concert song choice, Peach!! which means this album covered a lot of grounds as far as I can see. But the best were the live versions, some he hardly sings these days from what I can observe such as Dead Body and Blood. Good Luck in here is the live version and an excellent song. His vocals here improved tremendously from the early 90s releases. A definite great compilation album.
The following is the full track list of this album and whereever noted means the following either combination. Please take note ALL posts about songs come with an embedded video either the concert version, PV version or just the song version found in Youtube or uploaded somewhere and played through an embedded radio player. Some may contain screencaptures taken from the video source.

Hello, i like your blog very much!!
Could you get the lyrics (english if possible) about the song:
Ima kono hitotoki ga tooi yume no you ni
Thanks in advance and good work!
Hi Anonymous! The Romaji and Kanji I think I can find but the proper english translation I don't think so. I am still hunting for proper translation. All I can find are those Google translation of kanji lyrics and they're terrible.
i request the same, if it is possible. thank you
please, translate: Ima Kono Hitotoki ga Tooi Yume no Youki
Hi! I'm a fan of Masha, who found out this blog recently.
I translate Masha's songs into English every week in my blog(http://tvrocker.blog28.fc2.com/ :Sorry, but mostly written in Japanese. See "魂のラジオ," and you can find these translations)
I'm English learner.
I managed to translate "Ima kono hitotoki ga tooi yume no you ni" into English, which is shown below.
But I'm not sure whether the song's title was rightly translated, because in Japanese title, some words are cut out to express ambiguity.
(In exact description, the title goes "now this moment,like a faraway dream" in English, so you can add some words to understand the tile as you feel.)
Here is my translation:
"Seems Like This Moment Now Is a Faraway Dream"
"I was dreaming," you said.
With hoarse voice, at silent dawn.
You buried your head in my chest.
Your sigh silently spilled over and fell out.
While I was dozing off,
with my both arms,
I was drawing your actual warmth closer to myself.
Like seeking the continuation of your own dream,
your eyes are swaying without any sound.
While I was dozing off,
with my both arms,
I was drawing your actual warmth closer to myself,
gently...
Soft sunlight is playful beside windows.
It seems like this moment now is a faraway dream.
Sorrowful, and kindful.
While I was dozing off,
with my both arms,
I was drawing your actual warmth closer to myself.
"Let us have a dream in this morning,
to be able to follow our memories all along, throughout..."
Thanks TV-Rocker for your translation! As usual I am very appreciative of your time and effort, so many songs untranslated!! I will be sure to post that up, especially one from a native speaker. Thanks again!
By the way I can understand your meaning on the title. In fact your translation has a flow, it makes sense! Thanks again.
