Ever on and on I continue circling 
With nothing but my hate in a carousel of agony 
Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing 
And suddenly I see that I can't break free—
I'm

Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity
With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony
To tell me who I am, who I was
Uncertainty enveloping my mind
Till I can't break free
And

Maybe it's a dream; maybe nothing else is real
But it wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel 
So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside
And I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night
You can tell me what to say; you can tell me where to go
But I doubt that I would care, and my heart would never know 
If I make another move there'll be no more turning back
Because everything will change and it all will fade to black
Will tomorrow ever come? Will I make it through the night?
Will there ever be a place for the broken in the light?
Am I hurting? Am I sad? Should I stay, or should I go?
I've forgotten how to tell. Did I ever even know?
Can I take another step? I've done everything I can
All the people that I see I will never understand
If I find a way to change, if I step into the light
Then I'll never be the same and it all will fade to white




Ever on and on I continue circling 
With nothing but my hate in a carousel of agony 
Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing 
And suddenly I see that I can't break free—
I'm

Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity
With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony
To tell me who I am, who I was
Uncertainty enveloping my mind
Till I can't break free
And

Maybe it's a dream; maybe nothing else is real
But it wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel 
So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside
And I wish that I could live feeling nothing but the night
You can tell me what to say; you can tell me where to go
But I doubt that I would care, and my heart would never know 
If I make another move there'll be no more turning back
Because everything will change and it all will fade to black
If I make another move, if I take another step
Then it all would fall apart. There'd be nothing of me left
If I'm crying in the wind, if I'm crying in the night
Will there ever be a way? Will my heart return to white?
Can you tell me who you are? Can you tell me where I am?
I've forgotten how to see; I've forgotten if I can
If I opened up my eyes there'd be no more going back
'Cause I'd throw it all away and it all would fade to black

It is a bad apple, but this a good cover

[paulaflanagan]

It’s impossible to listen to this without having the video in your head

[robertfinley]

The octaves, and how they resonate with the melody, are what make this song so great. This cover brings that to the max.

0:07 that guy's comment fits with his profile picture

[ezzyshian]

Touhou community will bless this channel

[cherry]

I can't believe that this is famous around all over the world ❕I love this and take proud of that as a Japanese .👍

[FIRESTAR]

Bad Apple: *Exists*
White keys: *Am I a joke to you?*
Edit: Wow this comment blew up! Thanks for all the likes homies 👌🤟

[Hinochi_]

Song : *depression*
The beat : *oompa loompa*

[jimmyjonjam]

You should make a cover of Rick Astley’s ‘Never Give You Up’, but title the video with the most suggested cover idea that hasn’t been done yet.

[bas.meijer]

Hi SMB, I was wondering if you could maybe do Take me home, country roads by John Denver. Thank you in advance!

[madsldier]

you know the apple is bad when it sounds good, it's trying to deceive you

[puilingcheng]

the lyrics but English
Ever on and on
I continue circling
With nothing but my hate
And the carousel of agony
Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing
And suddenly I see that I can't
Break free, I'm

Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity
With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony
To tell me who I am! Who I was!
Uncertainty enveloping my mind
Till I can't break free and

Maybe It's a dream, maybe nothing else is real
But It wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel
So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside
And I wish I could live feeling nothing but the night
You could tell me what to say, You could tell me where to go
But I doubt that I would care and my heart would never know
If I make another move, there'll be no more turning back
Because everything would change and it all would fade to black

Will tomorrow ever come? Will I make it through the night?
Will there ever be a place for the broken in the light?
Am I hurting? Am I sad? Should I stay or should I go?
I've forgotten how to tell, did I ever even know?
Can I take another step? I've done everything I can
All the people that I see, They will never understand
If I find a way to change, if I step into the light
Then I'll never be the same and It all will fade to white

Ever on and on
I continue circling
With nothing but my hate
And the carousel of agony
Till slowly I forget and my heart starts vanishing
And suddenly I see that I can't
Break free I'm

Slipping through the cracks of a dark eternity
With nothing but my pain and the paralyzing agony
To tell me who I am! Who I was!
Uncertainty enveloping my mind
Till I can't break free and

Maybe It's a dream, maybe nothing else is real
But It wouldn't mean a thing if I told you how I feel
So I'm tired of all the pain, all the misery inside
And I wish I could live feeling nothing but the night
You could tell me what to say, You could tell me where to go
But I doubt that I would care and my heart would never know
If I make another move, there'll be no more turning back
Because everything would change and it all would fade to black

Will tomorrow ever come? Will I make it through the night?
Will there ever be a place for the broken in the light?
Am I hurting am I sad? Should I stay or should I go?
I've forgotten how to tell, did I ever even know?

This time You're not hurting me! This time I will take a stand!
All the hatred in my eyes building up an evil plan
Standing lonely in the night, with the darkness by my side
Looking deep inside myself, and revealing only fright
If I make another move, if I take another step
Then It would all fall apart, there'd be nothing of me left
If I'm crying in the wind, if I'm crying in the night
Will there ever be a way? Will my heart return to white?

Can you tell me who you are? Can you tell me where I am?
I've forgotten how to see, I've forgotten If I can
If I open up my eyes, there'll be no more going back
'Cause I'll throw it all away and it all will fade to black

So I'm back here once again? So I'm back here once again?
Can I ever make a change? Will my heart begin to mend?
Would you love me If I go? It feels like a heart attack
But still everything's the same and it all just fades to black
ow my hands

[sebastianwingert]

Wow... use Pentatonic and then throw in a natural F to make everything unstable and fall apart... that is genius! I mean yeah, it's technically it's Eb minor, but this is a cool thematical analysis. That's also why the harmony crunches so much, they intentionally use lots of augmented 6ths and major to minor 3rds, making it feel so forced and stressed. I love it!

[АбельДюран]

Даже если время течет так незаметно,
Что-то угнетает меня невыносимо.
Если бы ты знал, что совсем не замечаю,
Как моя душа меня покидает.

Даже если остановить смогу я время,
Повернуть назад эту реку просто невозможно.
Что вокруг меня - я не сильно понимаю,
Только на себя я и полагаюсь.

Вижу ли я сон, иль не вижу ничего?
Бесполезно говорить, важно только лишь одно
От тоски устала я, и должно быть в этом всё:
Просто жить без всяких чувств будет лучше мне всего.

Если ты произнесешь те заветные слова,
Не достигнут моего они сердца никогда.
Когда сдвинуться смогу, все изменится тогда
Но укутается в тьму, станет чёрным навсегда.

Есть ли "завтра" у меня? - Вот что я хочу узнать,
И должна ли я вообще в этом мире пребывать?
Ощущаю ли я боль? Ощущаю ли печать?
Я ответить не могу, и поэтому мне жаль.

Больше нету моих сил, так устала от всего,
И других людей теперь не понять мне всё равно.
Может если изменить в себе некую деталь
Станет белым этот мир, улетучится печаль?

Даже если время течет так незаметно,
Что-то угнетает меня невыносимо.
Если бы ты знал, что совсем не замечаю,
Как моя душа меня покидает.

Даже если остановить смогу я время,
Повернуть назад эту реку просто невозможно.
Что вокруг меня - я не сильно понимаю,
Только на себя я и полагаюсь.

Вижу ли я сон, иль не вижу ничего?
Бесполезно говорить, важно только лишь одно
От тоски устала я, и должно быть в этом всё:
Просто жить без всяких чувств будет лучше мне всего.

Если ты произнесешь те заветные слова,
Не достигнут моего они сердца никогда.
Когда сдвинуться смогу, все изменится тогда
Но укутается в тьму, станет чёрным навсегда.

Если сделаю свой ход, если сделаю свой ход,
Я разрушу этим все, я разрушу этим все.
Если буду я грустить, если буду я грустить,
То смогу ли я тогда свое сердце отбелить?

До сих пор не о себе, до сих пор ни о тебе
Я не знаю ничего, лишь доверилась судьбе.
Если я смогу открыть свои сонные глаза,
А затем разрушу все, крась все в черный цвет тогда.

Oh my Gosh...
It is often said that “music connects the world”, but listening to this makes it even more clear. Thank you SMB!!!

Lyrics:

Nagareteku toki no naka de demo kedarusa ga hora guruguru mawatte
Watashi kara hanareru kokoro mo mienai wa sou shiranai

Jibun kara ugoku koto mo naku toki no sukima ni nagasare tsuzukete
Shiranai wa mawari no koto nado watashi wa watashi sore dake

Yume miteru? Nani mo mitenai? Kataru mo muda na jibun no kotoba
Kanashimu nante tsukareru dake yo nani mo kanjizu sugoseba ii no

Tomadou kotoba ataerarete mo jibun no kokoro tada uwa no sora
Moshi watashi kara ugoku no naraba subete kaeru no nara kuro ni suru

Konna jibun ni mirai wa aru no? Konna sekai ni watashi wa iru no?
Ima setsunai no? Ima kanashii no? Jibun no koto mo wakaranai mama

Ayumu koto sae tsukareru dake yo hito no koto nado shiri mo shinaiwa
Konna watashi mo kawareru no nara moshi kawareru no nara shiro ni naru?

Nagareteku toki no naka de demo kedarusa ga hora guruguru mawatte
Watashi kara hanareru kokoro mo mienaiwa sou shiranai

Jibun kara ugoku koto mo naku toki no sukima ni nagasare tsuzukete
Shiranai wa mawari no koto nado watashi wa watashi sore dake

Yume miteru? Nani mo mitenai? Kataru mo muda na jibun no kotoba
Kanashimu nante tsukareru dake yo nani mo kanjizu sugoseba ii no

Tomadou kotoba ataerarete mo jibun no kokoro tada uwa no sora
Moshi watashi kara ugoku no naraba subete kaeru no nara kuro ni suru

Ugoku no naraba ugoku no naraba subete kowasu wa subete kowasu wa
Kanashimu naraba kanashimu naraba watashi no kokoro shiroku kawareru?

Anata no koto mo watashi no koto mo subete no koto mo mada shiranai no
Omoi mabuta wo aketa no naraba subete kowasu no nara kuro ni nare!!!

Now, just like Night of Nights, you have to remix this to the point of no return.
