Ah, HALCALI Sensation (嗚呼ハルカリセンセーション)

NOTES: Roughly 6 lines into the song, Halcali actually uses some Korean, French, Chinese, and even Russian words in their raps! Not too much mention one line that sounds like nonsense, actually has to be read backward to get the meaning! They’ve been translated to their appropriate english meanings. Oden is hotchpotch boiled in kelp-based broth seasoned with soy sauce. “Toussier” refers to Philippe Troussier, a former Japanese soccer coach who led their county’s team to a world cup in 2001. Oka refers to Kentarou Oka, the president of JEF United Ichihara (Japanese soccer federation). Roberto Carlos, Renaldo, and Figo all refer to famous soccer players. The “Real” in “Real words” doesn’t mean “real” as in “true”, it means “Real” as in “Real Mallorca”, which is a Spanish soccer team that internationally known Japanese striker Yoshito Okubo recently joined with. Nakameguro and Yuutenji are both districts in the Meguro prefecture of Tokyo. Since Halcali are “representing Meguroku”, (another Tokyo district) they’re probably trash talking these other districts in Tokyo. “Ryudai” is short for “Ryukoku Daigaku” (or Ryukoku University).

English: Translation by Mognet

Crying in the bubbles of a baby’s first bath
It’s the end of the Shouwa era, no doubt
Eight, seven, eight, eight, we’re, we’re
The price of land is steadily going up, the price of land
Hello to everyone throughout the world
The Olympic games, welcome to Seoul
This legend won’t sleep
Halcali on the mic, giving the guys nosebleeds
The period is Genroku, no way, this is Heisei
2 Pepeyins in these times
Globalization, the look of Western written characters
Invesitgate those foreigners more deeply
We’re not movin’, not movin’, represent Meguroku
Until my beautiful voice roars in a Norway forest
Hey hey, alright, I’ll settle it there!
I’ll raise a strange voice, and reap the wild enthusiasm
Halcali’s on stage, a cropped enthusiasm
Amuro and Ayu are all shaking
The same information about three ways
No no, I’m a little modest about two of them
MDs in a magazine, cosmetic oden
Everyday we pay a 5% tax with something
Middle and high school students endure heavy taxation
The price of fame is a little tax increase

Halcali sensation
One nation in the groove
This song automation
Light syncopation
Meeting is in slow motion
Our gold is imitation
A shaking vibration
An explosive combination

Oka calls up Troussier
Roberto Carlos, Renaldo, Figo Figo
Beat beat, with Real words
From 9 to 5, good girl, good girl
Everyone throughout the world, bring the noise
One hundred channels, perfect choice
In 2006, it’ll be Germany
Halcali is really cool
Fluent in the mother tongue, 2 Pepes
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you
A deflation spiral, looks like hard times
Celebrity houses are really fancy
Parastrika with guys from 5:00 on
Dropping in on the way, buying and eating sweets, 2 butt cheeks, no lights
The orange street lights are kinda pretty
Espresso is really bitter
Halcali is a drink from concentrate
Before and after, are they different people?
From Yawara to Miss Yawara
From Dorami to Miss Dorami
Nakameguro is stupid, what’s in Yuutenji?
Tokyo University of Arts and Music is dissapointing, Ryudai is laughable
A surplus of grade skipping, graduating at the top of the class
Peace out yo!
