Hello everyone, welcome to my lyrics blog/site! I created this site because I want to have a place to store lyrics of various Asian pop artists (particularly my favorites). All lyrics added to this site are taken from CD booklets and scanned images of booklets. Anything from a CD booklet comes from CDs that I have purchased or have easy access to. Booklet scans will either come from my computer or from the web. If I use someone else's scan, I will credit them if I can.
For now I will be adding lyrics from Japanese, Chinese/Taiwanese, and Korean artists, but the majority of lyrics I add will be in Japanese and Mandarin Chinese. For Japanese lyrics, I will be adding them in kanji/kana and romaji formats. Chinese lyrics, will be added in traditional and simplified characters, as well as pinyin with tones. Korean lyrics will only be added in hangul, as I still need more practice with romanizing it. I am currently studying Japanese and Chinese, so I will do my best to provide accurate romanizations for the lyrics I add to the site. However, to my knowledge there is no proper way of romanizing Asian characters. Everyone will have their own way of doing it, and I am just doing what I think works best. I will not be adding translations to this site at the moment, though I would like to be able to in the future.
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you enjoy my lyrics blog/site.
Page Descriptions:
Home:
This is the main page and will act as my news feed of the site. When I post something new, it will end up here. If you are looking for lyrics, I wouldn't recommend backtracking through posts to find them. You will be in for an uneventful day of endless scrolling, check the Lyrics Index instead.
Lyrics Index:
This page lists all song lyrics that I have added to the site. The lyrics are sorted alphabetically by artist, and they will be listed under the romanized version of the song title. I expect visitors to spend most of their time here, as it should be the main focus of this site.
My Collection:
This page shows my personal collection of Asian music. Most of the lyrics I add will come from the listing on the page. I created this page mostly so I could have a sense of completion as it shows my progress.
Scans Library:
This page may be misleading, but I will not be using it to host booklet scans. It is merely a list of album and single titles that I have acquired scans of and added lyrics from.
Requests:
This page contains my request policy, as well as a link to a blog entry where requests can be made.
