The Love Rocks lyrics

Could someone translate the kanji (or just get the kanji itself) of the lyrics to those songs (except for Nandodemo, Jet, Sora wo yomu, and Sunshine) to romaji? I have been trying to get the kanji itself on my own and it's hard..

Thank you in advance.

I will get busy and start to romaji these lyrics soon. It is good for me to train to romaji lyrics and try to figure out these tricky kanji. :)

I want to romaji a couple of songs from Funk the Peanuts too. I found scanned lyrics on the CD rental shop... but they don't have the singles to rent! :roll:

These could be better to see. (The Love Rocks kanji is there, including Spoon Me, Baby Me.)

I find romaji more than useless. There's only about 500 or so kanji that are in basically every song, so when you learn one you'll see it in about a dozen other songs too.

Did I mention that watching music TV shows with the kanji subtitles is how I learned about 40% of my Japanese? This way you get to hear the pronunciation along with seeing the kanji.

Plus romaji doesn't help you with grammar, which is about 50% of understanding lyrics, anyway.

Also converting kanji -> romaji means you lose the intrinsic MEANINGs of the kanji characters. Much easier to just learn the kanji IME.

Romaji does make easier to sing along, however.

That's the reason why I was trying to get the romaji. So I could sing along to the songs.

? hmm. furigana is also useful for that... and the furigana they use on difficult kanji on karaoke or music programs is very handy...
