Week 21 Day 5 - Nowhere

And here we go. The song-of-the-day is:-



Song: nowhere by フィクションジャンクション・ユウカ
nowhere by FictionJunction YUUKA [Fikushon Jankushon Yūka]


This song was the IN for the 2004 show Madlax [マドラックス| Madorakkusu], which I believe, can be viewed below:-


[An awesome scene, if it weren't for the impossibly physics in it]

Lyrics to be found here.

Additional videos:-


[AMV version with clips from the series]


[Live performance by FictionJunction YUUKA]


[Instrumental verison. For kicks]


[EXIT TRANCE version, of course]


[Kumikyoku/Nico Chorus version.]

One final video I like to leave you with, which is epicly awesome in it's own right:-


[Delay Lama version. EPIC LOLZ ENSUES! One reason why I always prefer NND]
[Note: No offense meant to those who took it.]
[Note 2: The power of pitch shifting. Or is it amplitude? Should be pitch]

That's all folks. Till tomorrow.
Adios

Note: This song has gained some sort of following, thanks to the constant chants in the song. More in-depth info from wiki:-
In the insert song "nowhere", there is a frequently repeated background refrain "Yanmaani" (ヤンマーニ Yanmāni?). It doesn't have any particular meaning but since the song usually plays when Madlax is fighting, "Yanmaani" has become something of a joke to Japanese fans, claiming that it apparently gives her superpowers.

Chants FTW
