OUR HOMETOWN

Lyrics - N.U.
-----------------
These roads will take me back home
To the blazing crimson sky

The smell of fresh bread from the bakery
All of my friends gathered up

A gust of wind blows
Please tell my friends
My soul will return
To the sky above our hometown

White clouds float across
Please tell my friends
My bones will be buried
In the earth under our hometown

Leave the gates wipe open I’ll be there
Swing your chair darlin you’ll know when I’ll be there

On the rock brave eagles flying ahead
Tilt your hats off friends I'll see you again

High above Is the grey sky
High above is the grey grey sky
These roads will take me back home
Sticks and stones won’t bury my bones

[KarmaCharger]

After Completing Story II of Rapi's backstory this song will always come to my mind whenever I see or hear Red Hood.

[arceusdominus]

Here's to the friends no longer here, and to the ones still with us.

[TheAkrillion]

WE'RE CRYING IN THE OUTPOST WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥❗❗❗❗❗❗

[FletscherLP]

I finally got to say goodbye to Red Hood in Rapi's story, thank you my red queen, you deserve it. o7

[LemonLord_]

Just played the Overzone event in the Recollection archive at the Command Center and I gotta say, the REDASH event hit even harder seeing what the Goddess Squad had to go through without Red Hood, Liliwess, and their commander.

[Madlad-]

Man, this song could easily fit for “Sons of Anarchy” or “Red Dead Redemption”. Cosmograph was born with talent to make bangers.

[waltzplay]

First anniversary, i'm happy to see how this game grew into what it is today.

[Midnight_Castle]

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MY FELLOW COMMANDERS!🎉

[jixdl]

Red Hood was right.

This is a good song

[MysteriMaan]

If Red Hood ever drove a vehicle, she definitely rides a Harley.
On the wide open roads, under the crimson sky, with all her biker friends.

[PAJARIN]

Ya know, listening to this, it kinda says a lot about Red Hood.
While the song describes a place she can go home, where she is familiar with alongside its people, she's a free spirit. Every place she comes by is instantly her home. Why? The sky is her home. She's a wanderer. She knows she can't stay in place, and she accepts it so she, rather than saying that she doesn't have a home, the entire world is her home.

Though, if you put it in a depressing tone, heaven is her home. Where everything is peaceful and a lot of her friends is there. But it doesn't mean she craves for it, she's singing it to the ones who went ahead of her... To welcome her once she arrives there. Until that time comes, they should wait for her. She isn't simply gonna go back home this early, and she still has a long road ahead of her and lots of places and experiences to see.

[LaImirch]

Finally finished chapter 26 and man.. it was so on point using this song in the event and the story when Red Hood says goodbye in both occasions. ;-;
Best Nikke ever tbh.

[Vivi_Hanako]

When she came back, she came back. When she is gone, she's gone.
This music is sucha masterpiece!

[々々-cu]

超個人的な翻訳と解釈

These roads will take me back home
この道は私の故郷へ続く道
To the blazing, crimson sky
燃えるような真っ赤な空への帰り道
The smell of fresh bread from the bakery
パン屋から漂う焼き立てのパンの香り
All of my friends gathered up
友達は皆そこに集まっている

A gust of wind blows, please tell my friends
そこに吹く風よ、彼女らに伝えてくれ
My soul will return to the sky above our hometown
私の魂は故郷の空へ帰る
White clouds float across, please tell my friends
そこを漂う白い雲よ、私の戦友に伝えてくれ
My bones will be buried in the earth under our hometown
私の骨は故郷の土に埋められている

Leave the gates wide open, I'll be there
玄関は開けておいてくれ、私はそこにいるから
Swing your chair, darlin
椅子を揺らしておいてくれ、愛しいあなたよ
You'll know when I'll be thеre
あなたが私を感じられるように
On the rock, brave eagles flying ahead
岩の上では勇敢な鷲が彼方へ飛んでいく
Tilt your hats off friends I'll see you again
友よ、さようなら、また会おう

High above is the grey sky
上に広がる灰色の空
High above is the grey grey sky
燃え殻の舞う灰色の空
These roads will take me back home
この道は私の故郷へ帰る道
Sticks and stones won't bury my bones
棒切れや石ころでは私の骨は埋められない

浅はかな考察
友

燃えるような紅の空 "the blazing, crimson sky"→燃え殻(ash)の舞う灰色の空 "the grey sky"
ストーリータイトルのRed Ash(赤い灰)からの意訳　"Re Dash" には痺れたなぁ
玄関"gates"は完全に意訳　
勇敢な鷲が飛んでいく"brave eagles flying ahead"　「私ももう行かなければ」的なニュアンス？
燃え殻の舞う灰色の空"the grey grey sky" 完っ全に意訳…でも正直気に入ってる()
棒切れや石ころ"Sticks and stones" 棒切れは十字架、石ころは墓石のことだろうか
書きながら泣きそう

[daschboot]

PSA for all players: click the red button on the cassette player multiple times in hard mode story 2 Red Ash to hear interaction between members of goddess squad.

[xenomorphoverlord]

Y'all want to know the amazing part of this song? To Red Hood, this song would _actually_ be old since the first rapture invasion takes place in the far future of Earth

[Teslania]

Truly a song worthy of commemorating the 1 year anniversary of Nikke.

[MayDay]

Definitely the type of music that Red Hood herself would listen to. Nicely done, Cosmograph!😁❤️🤘🏼🎸🎧

[Lee-Hyunwoo]

지금 군대 훈련소에 있는데 주말에 폰 받을때마다 듣고 있습니다...후

[Itadori]

Amazing Storyline, Amazing Characters, Amazing Soundtracks. Everything is perfect!
