Packed into a train without a place to go
I wore my headphones, turning away from the guides
faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway let's go
Going underground, I rode the metro
Instead of being cowardly, I just ran from the darkness
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway from here
When you've heard so many things
It's so fine, can you think that way too?
To time I'm kind, to time I'm mean
Without rage, what's important will change
faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway faraway
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway let's go

Ikisaki wo kimezu densha ni norikomi

faraway faraway ikou
Chika ni kugutte yuku metoro ni nottetanda
Monooji mo sezu ni yami wo tada hashiru
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway koko kara
Ikutsu no kotoba atumetara
It's so fine sou omoeru no darou?
Toki ni wa yasashiku toki ni ijiwaru de
Ikari wa shinakya ni setsunasa he kawaru
faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway faraway
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway ikou

行き先を決めず 電車に乗り込み
案内を避けて ヘッドホンをかぶった
faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway 行こう
地下に潜ってゆく メトロに乗ってたんだ
ものおじもせずに 闇をただ走る
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway ここから
いくつの言葉集めたら
It's so fine そう思えるのだろう？
時には優しく 時に意地悪で
怒りはしなやかに 切なさへ変わる
faraway faraway faraway
faraway faraway faraway
runaway runaway runaway
runaway runaway 行こう

ArmorGirls - Kishi ni Naru no da! (騎士になるのだっ！) Lyrics Translation
Say! Oh! x4
If our eyes meet, it'll be a mega fight
Suddenly high! Throttle
With a big BOOM! shooting up
Swelling, swelling up, fireworks
Hey! Yo! The West!
Changing into my helmet and armor
In the center of this arena, from now on I'm the heroine
Oh! Hallelujah sky
The sky's already clear
At full power, winning through the first round
Stepping out aiming for the top!
Hey, please watch out for me
Invincibility is always within yourself
Kicking my rivals around, willingly going to the winning road
Shining 'round the clock, I'm becoming a knight!
YEAH!
Say! Oh! x4
If you notice it, we'll be giga friends
Suddenly all ready! Friendly
The day of the fight has come to a close
Swelling, swelling up, memories
Say! Ho! Coming again, today I'm gonna be fighting again
In the center of your memories, from now on I'm in the leading role
So another night
So, your knight
To a future I can't see yet, my heart's dancing, I'm stepping out aiming for it!
Hey, believe in me
Your wish will one day come true
Even if the battle continues, my smile won't die out
However much I shine, I'm becoming a knight!
YEAH!
There'll be hard times too, yeah
In those times, for sure, a light
will shine, like it's wrapping around you
It'll be strong forever
At full power, winning through the final round,
Stepping out aiming for my dream!
Hey, please watch out for me
Invincibility is always right here
Even if the conflict continues, my smile won't die out
However much I shine, I'm becoming a knight!
I'm becoming one!!!!

ArmorGirls - AiAnAi (鋼鉄愛) Lyrics Translation
Gradually getting closer, us two
Just for a moment, your pupils shine
Burning and stinging light
The bout's decided here
I'm calling on you here (battleground)
Strife (Instinct)
Can't stop, won't stop
Continuously forging (refining)
my heart (my spirit)
This is my technique
The way of a knight is to die
For the sake of deciding on this path
For the sake of maintaining my feelings
This body, it's a vessel for steel
I've gotta give it my all
Chu, chu, armor and helmet
We've got lots of armor
Plate
Scale
Lamella armor
What's that? No clue!
Look it up on Google
Steel girls, Let's go!
Even though I don't really have any confidence yet,
Even though sometimes I'm really anxious
This charm, patiently, I'm gonna convey it
I pulled the trigger to start the battle
We're not able to go back anymore
Wearing a mask, firing up, AiAnAi-Ai!
Fluttering, throw out fashionable clothes
Sparkling, throw out make-up
Look after your battle form
Don't think you're gonna lose
Let's go, fight! (Just a little)
Tense (What do I do?)
I can't show my opponent my back
Pumped up (Seriously) Let's go (Let's go!!)
I'm not scared anymore
I'm carrying out my wishes
Armor mask-mask-mask
Even though sometimes I end up crying,
Even though I get discouraged sometimes,
Just a little more, with courage, because I'm looking forward
There will always be another fight
So I'm going to live with no regrets
Equipped with a mask, it's beginning, AiAinAi-Ai!
Armor-clad Monday, Tuesday
A helmet on my head Wednesday, Thurday
Preparing a sword Friday, Friday
The weekend, battle resounds through my head
Because I'm not able to end it like this
Because I want you to know me
Resolutely, wearing a mask, I shouted my name (ARMORGIRLS!)
The frozen clock's begun to move, history's page is turning
We are steel love-love AiAinAi-Ai!
Win or lose, trembling indecisively
Sink or swim, staking a bet dazzlingly
Black and white, thrilling contrariety
Is this a dream?
From now on, we're ARMOR GIRLS LOVE

Tentenko - Good bye, Good girl
I fairly recently acquired a copy of Tentenko's debut solo single, "Good bye, Good girl." Tentenko, previously a member of the popular "anti-idol" group BiS (Brand-new idol Society), began a crowdfunding campaign in October of 2014 with the goal of releasing a solo CD featuring music she had composed and performed on her own. The campaign raised over one million yen in a day (approximately nine thousand US dollars at the exchange rate at that time.)
Good bye, Good girl is an 80s-stylized song featuring a music video filmed entirely with a VHS camera. It's almost impossible to tell that this was filmed recently, the only things giving it away are small slip-ups in the background such as someone holding a smartphone.
The EP was released on January 14th, 2015 in two types, aptly named type 1 and type 2. Its highest position on Oricon's sales-tracking charts was #32.
