This cover was definitely a long-time coming, I've actually been working on this since November of last year! ≧◡≦ I was trying to upload this in time for 617, but I was inspired during a graduation trip and I had to give this song a little extra love! I had an absolute blast recording and mixing this, one of my all-time favorite Mili songs. I hope I did it justice! (｡♥‿♥｡)

Let me know if you’d like to hear more Mili covers! Next cover will be Japanese or miscellaneous! ♡

Lyrics:
If abstraction is the definition of beauty
Are those of us chasing after clarity
A representation of ugly?

Call me mommy
Just like your fantasy
There is no crime in ideality
Mux demux
Can't you understand me?
I'm not mine NAND I'm not yours
Ah-ah

This could end right here if you don't let it out
Let it out
Give up or give me your all
Tell me now
Tell me now

If we can be completely simulated
Do we need a real reality?

Don't let words die, let love run dry
Like what we did to the rivers we killed off in our near future
Ah-ah-ah
And mumble some stupid stuff
Like
I saw it coming
"Pretend it's not happening"
Us losers do nothing so winners keep winning

Sit
Fetch your leash
Dictated economy
Show me
Your belly
Forgotten ecology
Stay
Okay, eat
Human psychology
Good boy
Here's a treat
Hungry for energy

We are searching
Following our human instincts
Looking for ghosts of the non-existing kind
Who make us whole from the very beginning
We keep chasing
Dreaming about the perfect being
Perfect parents who are non-existing
Our bodies grew, our minds stayed the same

Now darling, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
Darling, darling
Hey honey, where do we go from here?
Hey honey, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
Now darling, where do we go from here?
To where?

Call me daddy
Where's your "yes sir" and "please"?
That's the only vocabulary you need
Mux demux
Can't you understand me?
You turn my screen #0000ff

We could end right here if you'd just let us fall
Let us fall
No tears, no regrets
No zero-days at our fault
Hear me out
It's a perfect plan
If you'd just
Shut up
Shut up
Then maybe you'll see what I've endured now
Hear me out
Li-lu-li-la, lu-la-lu-la
It's all just sunk cost, I know
But I'm not ready to stop

I don't wanna stop
Ah-ah-ah-ah

[The_Great_Spirit_Robot]

This and the Russian cover are my absolute favorite renditions of this song!

[vedrisca]

I remembering hitting the like button on this a year ago, but I forgot to comment that your voice in the refrain sections bring me back to Yuki Kajiura's older works in the 90's and 00's. Beautiful harmonies!

[anklebiter]

Your voice is so dreamy and crystal-like... a perfect balance between abstract and clarity. This cover is beautiful and I love the emotion you are capable of invoking! The playfulness, the sorrow, the way you manage to scream silently... mwah mwah it contributes to the futility of the song.

[UmbraticForest]

screaming crying sobbing on the floor holy shit this is so good

[jacko]

100/10 I didn’t think that a cover of this song could be as good as the original and even better, please keep making vids ❤

[kikiscribbles]

I saw your comment on a Fallen Angel metal instrumental, so I got curious and checked out your channel. When I listened to the first song I knew I had to follow! Your vocals here are so powerful and fluid, here's to all your future covers! :D

[grayidk]

Good work on this cover, is really good

[saharajesskapickmann]

this is very nice! I love this. Congratulations!
Ramdon Question:
when are you going to post fallen angel in metal version?.

[merry]

Like always sublime cover to listen to, your voice really in the end a pleasure. I really like the added effects. You wanted to post on June 17th? What a coincidence that makes 617 like in Scientific Witchery *cough cough*

[tttt]

This is such a beautiful cover, your voice suits the song so much! Where did you get the instrumental? I can't find it anywhere

[alejandrovargas]

Does anyone know how can i pronounce this sentence "#0000ff"? English is not my mother language and i am confused on this part. By the way excellent cover i really liked so much and i hope to see you more with further covers in the future. New suscriber!
