bo en - friend

lyrics:

ともだち make my dream come true
このかんじめっちゃまごまご
and you've never even felt this way before I know

on the boundary between me and you
some fluidity shapes me through and through

friends that i adore, just a mirror for me to feel alright
lonely resource, illuminate the night

show me something that you can do
i'll enjoy myself, i'll be eating you

from the album 'pale machine' released on Maltine Records in 2013.

'friend' is an interpolation from and samples the track by the same name from anodyne's OST composed by melos han-tani

[Natali_Regina]

I feel so identified with this. I interpreted that final line in the song (i'll be eating you) like he's using his friends to consume them so he'll feel better

0:32 it's in french so here iam
"-Quoi?!
-Mes dames,
-Quoi donc?
-je vous aimes
-Je comprends rien à ce qu'il raconte
-Bref, On voudrai coucher avec vous"

(Translation)

"-What?!
-My ladies,
-what?
- i love you
- I don't understand anything about what he is saying
-Well we want to sleep (sexual way) with you"

Im kinda sad that other YouTube vids that reposted your songs actually get tons of more views then here :/

[fumo_enjoyer]

This is I think the most underated music in pale machine. It good but dont know why it feel the most weird. I think there more chaos here then other song

[warlordthewitness]

The crowd noises make the song have this indescribable feeling

[haleybailey]

""I'll be eating you""

[nathanpruitt]

Fun Fact: this song is a remix from an indie game called Anodyne.

[Loviedove__]

This song makes me so sad every time I listen to it, I remember listening to it when my old cat was around and sobbing because I knew he didn’t have much time left, he’s passed now and this song still makes me cry, but it means a lot to me as well

[RVRRRRRRRR]

this album gives me OMORI vibes, this ones the one that gives me them the most, especially with the line "friends that i adore, just a mirror for me to feel alright".

[miempire]

translated it says
"my best friend makes my dreams come true"
kono kanji mecha patou patou
"this sesame egg"
???? someone please explain i loved this song for 3 years and just now i'm starting to wonder about this line and it's killing me

[Budew-eftr]

You are a curious man bo en. Where are you?

[neronoid]

The fact that it took me years to notice that they sampled Beyoncé in this song is... genius on their part and dumb in mine.

EDIT: just realized that I assumed bo en's pronouns here, so i'm switching it to 'they' as it is more respectful since I don't know how they identify as.

[MarL]

that drum and bass part is awesome. gotta thank omocat for making me find someone as talented as you ^^

[hyperkitten]

2:33 just tickles my brain
especially "I'll enjoy myself, I'll be eating you"

[spengithestrangeengie]

Gotta love that cod mic quality moment

[raquelmirandalima]

0:25 seems like Nintendogs "Wave Record" sample... oh my, it's really nostalgic. (watch?v=4QXERk9nZ4s)
AND MAN, I love how you join Miku to your songs.

[judahosborne]

I feel this song so damn much. I made myself like my friends when I was a kid because I didnt like myself lol.

[Chlocean]

I loved anodyne and I love bo en. I'm so happy to see these two niche interests intersect like this.

[kevinguerrero]

this song is cool but if you hear it in speed 1:25 is too cool to be truth

[ILeoILNARDO]

トモダチ make my dream come true
この感じめちゃまごまご
And you've never even felt this way before, I know

トモダチ make my dream come true
この感じめちゃまごまご

On the boundary between me and you
Some fluidity shapes me through and through

Friends that I adore, just a mirror for me to feel alright
Lonely resource, illuminate the night

Show me something that you can do
I'll enjoy myself, I'll be eating you
