J-POP (Japanese Pops) – Catagorize by Retroriron

Catagorize

Hi all, J-pop time! It has been too long long time since I post. I moved into a new place and enjoy every minute being here.

Recently I came across this talented Hip Hop young Japanese band, Retroriron is formed with three boys and a girl. This song sound very cheerful but when I hear its lyrics I can feel a lot of important message to people, telling them wake up!

I think this song express how the Japanese people nowadays lives in a society in Japan. The vocalist’s powerful voice conveys the strong message!

The video is not available to upload here but if you click the link below, it takes you to youtube video.

Hope you will enjoy it!

Song by レトロリロン ‧ 2025

He’s acting like a star in public today too.
あいつは今日も人前じゃスターを演じている

Only I know the truth behind that smile
あの笑顔の裏にあるホントをそう僕だけが知っている

That girl always hides her weaknesses in public.
あの子はいつも人前じゃ弱さを隠している

Only I know the truth behind that smile
あの笑顔の裏にあるホントをそう僕だけが知っている

Look for things that are different from other people
人と違うとこを探して

Kick it down so you don’t notice
気づかれないように蹴落として

Oh, they’re all worthless in the end
あぁどいつもこいつも結局くだらない

Speak so you won’t be hated
嫌われないように話して

Do your best to avoid being removed
外されないように無理をして

I’m living my life complaining again today.
また今日も愚痴を吐いて生きてる

Hey! Don’t compare, don’t be pretentious.
ねえ!比べないでよ気取らないでよ

Hey! Please reply with more sensible words.
ほら!もっとセンスある言葉で切り返してよ

If you don’t understand, don’t say anything
分かってないなら口は出すなよ

It’s okay to be different. It’s okay to be wrong.
違っていいでしょ間違えていいでしょ

It’s the voice of my heart so don’t worry about it ha ha
僕の心の声だから気にしないでよ ha ha

I don’t want to find out
見つけないでいたい

I don’t want to pay attention to it
気に留めないでいたい

I don’t want people who don’t know anything to talk about it.
何も知らん奴だけにゃ語られたくはない

Those eyes that only see what they want to see
視たいものだけ視てるその目も

That mouth that speaks as if it understands
理解ったように話すその口も

Ah, no matter how long it takes, I can’t fix it.
あぁいつまで経っても 直せないんだね

Correct what is different from other people
人と違うとこを正して

Pretend like you don’t notice
気づいてないようなフリをして

Ah, this one is not very popular with everyone.
あぁどいつもこいつもみんな大人気ない

Deceive me so I don’t get hurt
傷つかないように騙して

Trying too hard not to convey
伝わらないように無理をして

Someone is crying again today
また今日も誰か泣いて生きてる

Hey! Don’t compare, don’t be pretentious.
ねえ!比べないでよ気取らないでよ

Come on! Try saying it with more humor.
ほら!もっとユーモアを交えて切り返してよ

If you don’t understand, don’t say anything
分かってないなら口は出すなよ

It’s okay to be different. It’s okay to be wrong.
違っていいでしょ間違えていいでしょ

It’s the voice of my heart, so don’t worry about it
僕の心の声だから気にしないでよ

It’s not about you so don’t worry about it
別に君のことじゃないから気にしないでよ
