Translation:
「 Night rain 」
Night rain colored by neon signs
Wrapped by a mechanic loneliness
My heart is a thin glass
It reflects mechanic questions
What is it in the end
What is my real identity
Just what should I do
I, got worried
I, got worried
What is it at the end of the day
The result of groping blindly in the dark
Just what should I do
Who am I
Who am I
"To know" and "to not know"
Where did I learn it When did I learn it
"Natural" and "unnatural" things
Where did I feel it When did I feel it
Beyond the night beyond my consciousness
There is neither salvation nor answer
Even so I keep on living
The night rain has not stopped yet
Night city holding the breath
The voice of my heart gets bigger
I beg you just leave me alone
But my heart won't let go
What is it in the end
What is my heart
Just what should I do
Again, I'm worrying
Again, I'm worrying
What is it at the end of the day
I'm stuck and there is no way out
Just what should I do
Where am I
Where am I
Say, even though it's so ambiguous
My whole existence is so ambiguous
Yet, things like happiness or sadness
They seem to overflow They seem to break down
Beyond my memories beyond my cells
The answer is there It is somewhere
While searching for it I keep on living
While struggling Forever and ever
What is human heart
What is the true identity of humans
Are they just lonely creatures
There must be more than that
It feels like only I am lonely
But it seems like everyone is lonely
That's how it is at the end of the day
The night rain has stopped now
I would like to have something simbolizing plenty since their music had a great impact in my life, do you have any suggestions? I thought ot doing their logo, you know just "plenty" but I wanna know of more options if there are any
what i thought of immediately would be the silhouette of the boy clasping his arms around the knees (see my icon) - who can be found on their first mini album, in their mv Tokyo etc.
people say that the boy symbolizes the music plenty did in the earlier days - disbelieving human, shutting oneself away from the world yet still yearning for people’s warmth. and later (around sora kara furu ichioku no hoshi i think) listeners say that they can feel how the boy starts to crawl out of his dark room.
You can still buy goodies with that motive, and maybe you ll find some inspirations if you look at their merchandise site. Hope that could be a help.
Thank you for making this blog, I found it when I was searching for the lyrics to my favourite Plenty song, (Mishiranu Asa) and understanding the lyrics fully pushed it even further into my "Favourite Song of all time". I'm so sad I only discovered Plenty after their disbandment had already been announced, but I'm grateful for getting to listen to such beautiful music. This message is kind of unnecessary and silly, but, just wanted to thank you for it, even if I am much too late.
oh this message is not unnecessary at all, and you are not too late! as i said before, i will stay and keep updating, since i m sure all three of them will stay in the music scene! so even though plenty is disbanding very soon, still i hope that more people will discover and love their music, even after their disbandment. after all, at least the music stays forever, no? it s ME who want to thank you for giving their music a listen!
(btw i also love mishiranu asa A LOT >o< i m glad that my translation does anything good haha)
I was just about to message you about their newest album's translations because it didn't appear on the discography tag. Lol silly me. Thank you for sharing your translations~ I'm just really curious about enuma's wifeu lol do you know something~ thanks again
Nope sorry I don’t know anything about her. I haven’t listened to all their radio appearances since his marriage, nor did I read all interviews since then, but I don’t believe Enuma is someone who would mention his wife openly at all...

Hey! I will be going to Plenty's very last live and I was wondering if anyone's going too from overseas! So that I don't feel left out at the live haha.. I don't know anyone who likes Plenty other than myself and I thought it would be better to send you a Q so someone can see it.. I am going from NZ btw. Thank you! And Thank you again for all your hard works! It helps so much to learn about Plenty thru your blog!!
Hi! Good to hear that you are going! Spreading this message so that more people could meet up~ Is this your first time attending a plenty live? If so I can assure you that you won’t feel left out, because once the live starts you would feel as if you are the only one in the whole universe anyway, haha.
