Recently, I have found myself having a couple of songs from an anime series I recently watched being constantly on my mind. The series is ALDNOAH.ZERO, which I've watched a couple times now on Netflix. There are two songs that have just stuck with me that I think are absolutely amazing. The composer is Hiroyuki Sawano. He's fabulous. As I've been trying to locate downloads for the songs, I've run across other songs he's done for other anime series and they are all wonderful!
The first of the two that I fell in love with is BRE@TH//LESS.
This is the version I like better from the 'Rearrange' soundtrack (there is a different version on the main soundtrack). The lyrics are cool as well (and in ENGLISH, too!). This version has Mika Kobayaski and Aimee Blackschleger on vocals (other version is only Mika Kobayashi). If you like it, you can download it from THE HYLIA.
The second song is KEEP ON KEEPING ON.
The video above also includes the song "aLIEz", from the same series. Keep on Keeping On is just like Bre@th//less, it just sticks with you, and has fantastic lyrics. If you like it, you can download it from THE HYLIA.
Let me know what you think of the songs. I've included the lyrics below.
BRE@TH//LESS:
Share me your madness that you keep in
Show that you're scared like me
Thus we are teens
Wash my hands of that for this?
Sell myself for this hopeless loop
May I have seen your face somewhere sometime?
You freeze my blood and spine
So freak me out
Like a look in a mirror
Face my Doppelganger
How 'bout you? Aren't you?
Beware of attentions, entourages and mates
You are what you do
Depress your mentions, ain't got to be a bighead
You are what you fool
Right now
Burn your soul, neck or nothing
Burn it out 'til you're losing your reason
Forget the stoned reason to drive it
Just to scribe your existence
Not a crime, your insistence
Die another day
So do I
Burn my soul, all to nothing
Burn it out, let me charge in your advance
I'm watching for the chance to beat it
Even though my body's shaking
I'll give it all, deadly bumping
Cuz you make me feel
Breathless
Share me your sadness that you keep in
Know that you're played around
Thus we are green
Kind of harsh misfortune ran
So-called Yin and Yang among us
Are you really serious to save her right now?
Get ready to give your life, willing or not
Have the real foresight a few
Unwanted deja vu
All 'bout you, warn you
Beware of attentions, entourages and mates
You are what you do
Depress your mentions, ain't got to be a bighead
You are what you fool
Right now
Burn your soul, neck or nothing
Burn it out 'til you're losing your reason
Forget the stoned reason to drive it
Just to scribe your existence
Not a crime, your insistence
Die another day
So do I
Burn my soul, all to nothing
Burn it out, let me charge in your advance
I'm watching for the chance to beat it
Even though my body's shaking
I'll give it all, deadly bumping
Cuz you make me feel
Breathless
Right now
Burn your soul, neck or nothing
Burn it out 'til you're losing your reason
Forget the stoned reason to drive it
Just to scribe your existence
Not a crime, your insistence
Die another day
So do I
Burn my soul, all to nothing
Burn it out, let me charge in your advance
I'm watching for the chance to beat it
Even though my body's shaking
I'll give it all, deadly bumping
Cuz you make me feel
Breathless
KEEP ON KEEPING ON:
Unknown soldier lying on the floor
Explosions forever
Now you take me away from danger
We had always covered up your face
Out there who will watch your back?
Because I don't know if I can stay here
Game over
Now we hate our brothers
No longer can move my feet
But it's
Keep on keeping on
And it's I just wanna know
Inside it's I don't want to know
Over head they fly high it's going
On and on and on
Will we oversee the smile of love and peace for everyone?
You can be sure
I'll be back again
Broken window glass is everywhere
Explosions forever
Now you save me from oblivion
We had always covered up your face
Out there who will watch your back?
Because I don't know if I can stay here
Game over
Now we hate our brothers
No longer can move my feet
But it's
Keep on keeping on
And it's I just wanna know
Inside it's I don't want to know
Over head they fly high it's going
On and on and on
Will we oversee the smile of love and peace for everyone?
You can be sure
I'll be back again
And I remember a long time ago
I will be there for you and please wait for me
Oh you must believe me
Better you believe your mind
But it's
Keep on keeping on
And it's I just wanna know
Inside it's I don't want to know
Over head they fly high it's going
On and on and on
Will we oversee the smile of love and peace for everyone?
You can be sure
I'll be back again
And I remember a long time ago
I will be there for you and please wait for me
Oh you must believe me
Better you believe your mind
