A super catchy feel good song with tons of English... I thought it'd be a nice one for a warm-up (I say that as I compare 4 translations). Can you think of 16 poke-ladies winking at you when Tommy chants "L.O.V.E.L.Y sweetheart ... L.O.V.E.L.Y baby"? No matter, it's kinda moot since supposedly TF6 said she wrote this song for Pikachu.
I first had "Way up high is my lucky star" because a couple translations didn't have a clue what "rame" meant... The mystery is solved as Bulbapedia translates it as "lamé"!
Scattered across the twilight sky
Made of lamé is my lucky star
My heart beats to a lullaby
Even when lightning strikes by
Aurora borealis bridges are
(a-twinkling over you!)
Hearts entwine both near and far
As one courageous star
Hello boys and girls
Take me to your heart
Give the musical notes a kiss
Yours and my sweet song
Is always with you
With all of my love I wrote a song for you!
Sometimes in crowds I feel more blue
More blue then anyone I see
I'm lost in thoughts and call for you
Your name passes through your view
I wonder what it is that's on your mind?
(Yeah, twinkling over you!)
Let's adventure, you and me
Never know what we'll see!
Let's go boys and girls
Take me to your dream
I love your distant, faraway eyes
Like a sunny day
I'm always with you
You're just a dreamer, you dreamy lovely boy
L.O.V.E.L.Y sweet heart
L.O.V.E.L.Y baby
(instrumental)
No matter what happens, rain or shine
(Yeah, twinkling over me!)
It's wonderful, this feeling of mine
Together we align
Hello boys and girls
Take me to your heart
Give the musical notes a kiss
Yours and my sweet song
Is always with you
With all our love we'll be hand-in-hand
Let's go boys and girls
Take me to your dream
I love sweet feelings, candy surprise
Like a sunny day
I'm always with you
You're just a dreamer, you dreamy lovely boy
*L.O.V.E.L.Y sweet heart
L.O.V.E.L.Y baby
*repeat 2x, remix a little like you're a DJ with a record that you spin 'n' scrub like Frrrip! or Owreireirt! or Wikka wikka ooh-woo! y'know? I'm sure someone more musical knows what I'm trying to say. If not, listen to the actual song with vocals.
