The beginning made me think of the Lion King.

One of my favorite songs from VAMPS / HYDE solo.

I love his voice here, HYDE can use different registers and that's what a great singer is able to do. As for the PV, I think the song itself doesn't need much more, insinuates more than shows.

Although so far I haven't read the lyrics, but this PV makes me sad. Especially when I saw such an expression of Hyde's.
Makes me want to hug him.

Also the atmosphere in this PV reminds me of the time hanging out with my high school friends, when we enjoyed the time together.

Although this PV is simple, but this is more than enough.
This PV can convey the message of this song.

I absolutely adore this song! Easily one of my favorites from the album. I really enjoyed the PV, too - very mellow and meditative.

Does anyone have the lyrics to this song? I'm having trouble understanding a few parts. I really love what I'm hearing so far, though. Very profound. I love the very Indian sound that's in part of this (and in "Samsara"). Reminds me a lot of George Harrison's music (which I also love).

Me too!!!!! I like the video but I had more of an abstract idea of how the PV would turn out...I also thought he might do some snowy scenes too since he described being in the house on a snowy day...that would have been super beautiful I think...but the PV still has a nice effect

No lyrics hunted down yet, sorry, but the beginning should go like that:

"Now it's coming to an end
the first time for me
this is the last embrace of my life"

then it get's difficult...

"All ??? (something that ends with -oint???) are tied up in a line
I'm understanding now
this is the structure of the world"

then it get's even more difficult

"I feel... (no clue, I understand "close to the people", "closed from the people", "close to the pale moon"...)
I feel... (again no clue)
...
my soul is now one with the universe."

Later I understand weird things like "strumming/strolling is beautiful"

and then
"my soul now returns to the universe"

Can't wait when all the lyrics come out, really. These mondegreens...
I could swear the first line of Rumble is "I bet you're ugly" .

Someone made a translation of it into Japanese on some blog somewhere...I could probably make lyrics if I translated it back into English and listened to the track with the translation? I think I remember from the translation that "All points are tied up in a line" and it seemed to match with the Japanese translation...I'll see if I can track it down again.

i have to agree with you here Laura. i really like his voice here. he's used this before, but with english, some sounds stand out more.

i think this song has much more depth of emotion than most of the pothers, but it is so subtly woven. fits my mood for the last few months anyway. it is weird when he does that, releasing a song that follows where my head has been for a long while. ALONE EN LA VIDA with L'Arc was like that. and so was TIME GOES BY. and PRAYER.

Oh, the Koreans again ;-) (but I removed the Korean parts...)

VAMPS - MY FIRST LAST
(ALBUM - BEAST)
WORDS & MUSIC : HYDE

NOW IT'S COMING TO AN END
THE FIRST TIME FOR ME
THIS IS THE LAST EMBRACE OF MY LIFE

ALL POINTS ARE TIED UP IN A LINE
I'M UNDERSTANDING NOW
THIS IS THE STRUCTURE OF OUR WORLD

I FEEL WHERE THE WIND'S GOING
I FEEL WHEN THE SEA EBBS AND FLOWS
I FEEL HOW FAR THE LAND GROWS
MY SOUL IS NOW ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE

NOW IT'S COMING TO AN END
THE FIRST TIME FOR ME
THIS IS THE LAST EMBRACE OF MY LIFE

I FEEL THE CLOSE BOND OF PEOPLE
I FEEL THE LOVE THAT I OVERLOOKED
I FEEL SHARING IS BEAUTIFUL
MY SOUL IS NOW ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE

AS THE END APPROACHES
A FLOOD OF MEMORIES
THIS IS THE LAST THING I RECALL

I FEEL YOUR LOVELY SINGING
I FEEL YOUR TENDER SMILE FOR ME
I FEEL YOUR INNOCENT HEART
I KNEW IT
MY LIFE WAS TO LOVE YOU

MY SOUL IS NOW ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE


Sharing is beautiful, aha! Not strumming or strolling .
