[Mint.Music.Journey] Did a Japanese Song Cover titled Ai No Uta with Classmate Zhi Hao

Ai No Uta
By Fukui Mai

'Ai No Uta' stands for 'Love Song' in japanese language.

It's the theme song of heart-wrenching Japanese movie Koizora(Sky Of Love).  I cried buckets of tears watching this movie in my teens.

Image taken from Google Search.

Koizora is about Mika and Hiro, who have just started their high school years. Mika was afraid of Hiro at first but after she understands how gentle he is, they gradually fall in love with each other. Jealous, Hiro's ex gf, Saki, hired a group of men to rape Mika. Despite the event, Hiro vows to protect Mika.

Soon after, Mika was pregnant with Hiro's child but suffered a miscarriage when Saki pushed her down a flight of stairs. Devastated, Hiro and Mika build a grave for their unborn baby and promise to visit the memorial yearly on the day of the baby's death.

The story goes on when Hiro discovered that he contracted cancer and made a painful decision to break off with Mika. He even kept his health condition a secret to Mika so that it would not caused her anymore pain.

A couple of other heart-wrenching events happened after that.

Mika eventually found out Hiro's condition and made up her mind to spend Hiro's last days with him...

*sobs sobs*
Eh why this girl's life so kelian one huh…

Ai No Uta is one of Zhi Hao's favourite song and I'm honoured to do this Japanese song cover with him although I can't speak japanese at all. Also, Zhi Hao is camera shy and it's really brave of him to overcome his fear and complete this cover with me! Bravo~

It took me more than 3 months to learn to pronounce the words.
A little patchy but I tried my best!

By the way, we did this cover last year that's why my hairstyle is not updated la. 
HAHAHAHA~

Here's the cover of Ai No Uta by Zhi Hao And me:

Lyrics:
Yasashii kaze ga fuku itsumo no michi de
Anata ni ae rutoka sonna koto de ii

Chiisa na kodou no yure ga omoi ni kasanari
Shizuka ni tokeru no o tada matte iru
Hito wa doushite kotae o motomeru no
Watashi wa kore de shiawase na no ni shiawase na no ni

Ai no uta ga kikoeta n da
Sore wa chiisa na ai ga
Hohoemu you ni yorisou you na
Yasashii oto gashita
Toki wa nagare yume wa nagare
Ironna katachi kawatte mo
Anata ga tada koko ni ireba
Sore dake de ii

Anata no yobu koe ni kizukeba toki ni wa
Ushita mono ni tada te o nobasu dake

Toki wa doushite owari o tsugeru no
Egaita ima wa ashita no sora ni
Tsuzuite iru no ni

Ai no uta ga kikoeta n da
Sore wa chiisa na ai ga
Hitotsu hitotsu matataku you na
Itoshii oto gashita
Toki to tomo ni ano hi no hoshi
Namida de nagarete shimatte mo
Anata ga tada koko ni ireba
Sore dakede ii

Negai wa toki ni tooku
Muri ni tsukamo utoshite mo
Te moto o suri nukete yuku kedo
Sono mama kieteyuku you na
Ookina mono yori
Chiisa na ai ni kizukeba

Itsuka toki ga hana o sakashi
Yagate ooki na ai ga
Utau you ni kanaderu you ni
Futari o tsutsumu darou

Ai no uta ga kikoeta n da
Sore wa chiisa na ai ga
Hohoemu you ni yorisou you na
Yasashii oto gashita
Toki wa nagare yume wa nagare
Ironna katachi kawatte mo
Anata ga tada koko ni ireba
Sore dake de ii

Anata ga ite soba de warau
Sore dake de ii

Now let's listen to the original by Fukui Mai with snippets from Koizora:
