Week 25 Day 7 - Colors of the Heart

And so, here comes Friday again, where I end the anime-week with this great song.



Song: Colors of the Heart by UVERworld


This is the OP3 for the show Blood+ (of which I've once covered the OP1 and OP2 before). OP below.
[Note: I found the OP kinda unique as far as most usual OPs go]



Lyrics can be found here. Or Romanji/kanji and Translations from a diff site.

This song, I initially found on a whim. At that time, I never knew Blood+, and only knew UVERworld with D-tecnolife only. Turned out to be a real good find for me, as I still rank this their best song so far (even better than their debut hit).

I even once attempted to blog about music YEARS ago, using this song's lyrics as a basis. The line that got me interested was "「光が強くなれば　闇も深くなる」" [Hikari ga tsuyoku nareba yami mo fukaku naru] which translates to "If the light gets stronger, the darkness also gets deeper" (or to something along those lines). Still a line I take to thought every now and then. Overall great song.

Anyways, continuing on. Additional videos include:-


[PV Version]


[Female version... basically the same ol' pitched up version]


[MAD based on Code Geass, featuring heavily on Suzaku]


[MAD from Fate Stay Night. Seems to concentrate a lot on Heaven's Feel and UBW]


[Awesome MAD, from the show Teggen Toppa Gurren Lagann. The show full of GAR]


[A MAD, that uses Dissidia: Final Fantasy characters onto the OP3. Very nice. 2nd half of the clip is purely credits]


[Electric guitar cover]


[Bass cover]


[A bit reluctant to put this, as it ain't good and borders on bad. But it is interesting take on the song. A slower version of it, and acoustic]

Alrighty, that's it for me this week.
Look forward to Sunday where the next new theme begins. Until then, goodnightz

Note: When light gets stronger, so does darkness. Any thoughts?
