Translation Notes
- ↑ The title is given in katakana as “raimuraito,” which could be understood in English as either “limelight” or “rhymelight”; a sign in the background of the video contains both English words/phrases.
- ↑ Since there’s a German word later in the stanza, “Tod” here might be intended as the German word for “death.” Or maybe it’s just a name, I have no idea what’s up with the non-Japanese parts of this song.
- ↑ There is absolutely no grammatical context here to indicate what sense “trip” is meant in, but as a loan word by itself (rather than part of a compound word that’s also loaned) it does seem to be used primarily in the drug sense.
- ↑ A rehearsal in which the entire show is performed, in order and usually without stopping. (I don’t know if this is common knowledge or not.)
