The main page told you already that this site is for lyrics of ELLEGARDEN. I have
dreamed about this site ever since I was tired of searching the web with no results.
Though, I end up finding some pages with ELLE lyrics, yay! But all of them had the
same lyrics, and mostly just from Pepperoni Quattro, BRING YOUR BOARD!! and Riot
On The Grill. It's been a long time, but as I remember, there wasn't any Japanese lyrics.
And no old songs.
That made me sad.
In March 2005 I bought Don't Trust Anyone But Us while I was in Japan. Since then I've
spent all my money to buy more cds to get more lyrics. Thanks to my crazy fangirl-ness,
skill of saving money, birthdays and Christmas, I've bought cds as much as I could, now
having them all. And I've saved money for the next release!
I'm not bragging with having them, but that's just the way it is. I bought them not just for
me, but for this site, for all of you! Think about it in that way. I bought them to have lyrics
from their cover jackets (well of course because of the music, too), so you don't have to question
if the lyrics are right or not.

Translations
I'm not that good in Japanese I could translate whole songs. Because of my lack of
knowing kanji and grammars, two native Japanese helped me, and translated some
lyrics. So cheer for Jun and Hibiki.
I don't have any "official" translator, and there won't be one. Anyone who knows Japanese
well (native speaker or studies the language) can be a translator for this site. Of course
I'll give you the credits.

Because I'm not a master in Japanese, I can still translate them from kanji to romaji.
Sounds weird, huh. But I have my methods. I'm just trying to listen very close, and
I can write Japanese on my computer, I also have list of all kanjis, so it helps. There
might be little mistakes, but I sometimes check these lyrics and make sure I haven't
forgot anything.

Thanks
Thank you for all you brilliant people who have visited this site and like it and find
it useful. Thank you for cheering emails and messages.
Thanks also to Alex, who gave me lyrics for Space Sonic back in the days I didn't have it yet.
I promise I won't let you down. I LOVE YOU ALL!!
Keep rocking.
