Spoiler:
A Whole New World God Only Knows
Oratorio The World God Only Knows (Vocals: Lia & ELISA)
L: I don’t wanna let the chance slip away
Why is my freedom taken away?
Reason as against emotion
I’ve gotta deal with extreme frustration
E: All my efforts will never be in vain
Endless desire, like a haunting refrain
D: Such a pain, the ideal versus the real
L: There is a way E: To change the world
D: Just count on me
L: So what if I sing off-key, who cares
Not good at drawing, no big deal
E: Let me go for my one true belief
E: Overcome myself
L: Overcome yourself
D: “A Whole New World God Only Knows”
E: I’ll always be on your side
L: I know you’re hurting inside
E: To be a knight D: To be a light L: For you
E: We’ll be shining bright
L: No more fears D: No more tears
Everything will work out
That’s “God only knows”
E: Don’t get me wrong
This is not real love but
D: I’ll do anything for you
L: Whatever happens in my life, turn the page and come of age
E: Remember, no one can judge me
L: Every end leads to a new beginning of the next stage
E: Try to make my life complete, trust myself
D: Be strong and do my best
Don’t look back, carry on
E: The ideal, find a way out
L: The real, find a way out
D: “A Whole New World God Only Knows”
E: Here’s the thing I’ve realized
L: Deep sadness you can’t disguise
E: Keep the goal in sight D: So turn the tide L: For you
E: We can get over
L: One more try D: One more time
Everything has a reason
That’s “God only knows”
E: Don’t let me down
This is not real love but
D: I’ll never leave you alone
L: Whatever happens in your life, look for the silver lining
E: You know, some things are meant to be
L: Even if you feel things are too much to bear, the sun’s shining
E: Try to find the answer to all our dreams
D: Believe and do your best
Not too late, start over
C: Be yourself… Be happy… It’s your life…
“God only knows”
Find your love… Find your way… For your life…
Being a big fan of ELISA, and having taken a liking to Lia's past work... this is probably the second most awesome duo I've ever seen.
First still has to be Happy Material Return (Mahou Sensei Negima OP) by Yui Horie and Minori Chihara, live at Animelo.
@
Vegard Aune: Indeed, the original still is amazing in comparison. I doubt we'll see something from the newer series top it.
(Also, if someone wants me to chart the other track on the single ("
A Brand New God Only Knows"), just let me know.
