Read more (145 words more)This is Jinn's single, 100 Mankai Sukida to Iu tte or as I translated, "So many times you said, "I love you." It's a sad song about a girl that just can't seem to forget her past love. She keeps remembering all the times she spent and why things fell apart.
The words Hyaku mankai is actually a very large number. One million so I translated it to “so many times” or “countless times.” In this video, the lead singer, Hiitan writes the number 101 mankai over and over.
Maybe 101 represents the last time she forgave her love and after that time they broke up. It would explain why she is so repetitive.
Hiitan is a talented vocalist and this song is the perfect example of why. Her other songs are energetic like ‘Kaidoku Funou’ or ‘Raion.’ But those songs are about finding your true self from the natural environment around us.
However, this song is about something in someone's life, love. Her passionate lyrics can be felt if you look close enough. That's why I like this song.

Can't get enough of this song!
Well it's a great video. I know cause I posted it, lol. Hiitan is superb in her vocals and lyrics as well. I added the translation so people can understand the song better. If anyone is interested in this band.
I'm huge fan so check out their official website here. There is an English webpage as well as Japanese. http://jinnlove.net/ja/index.html
Also Hiitan's official twitter and blog are posted here as well. ひぃたん＠ジン @jinn_hiitan -- twitter account
If you are learning Japanese and can read and like to look at pictures, Hiitan's blog is nice -- http://jin-hiitan.exblog.jp/
One more thing, It's been so long since I contributed to this website so I wanted to try to keep you updated on their latest release. It's not official but they have myspace and their newest single will be released online I believe next week. So hopefully a new video will be coming soon.
check out their new songs -- http://www.myspace.com/jinnlove.net
Their new single features two songs.
1. 夢幻の光 Which literally says Mugen no hikari but in the song, Hiitan says yumei no hikari.
yumei - means dream or visions
mugen - is another way to say dream
hikari - means light
So the song is translated as, "Visions or dreams of light"
It's an energetic song but it's about a dream so there is a lot of action going on.
2. ブルースケール literally says, Full Scale. It's part 2 of their original song Scale.
This song is a bit more relaxed but it has a nice variation of sounds. Lyrics are nice.
Anyways, sorry this message is so long. But if you like this video, be sure to check out their newer songs that I posted about.
it's my bad on the second song of their new single, its' Blue scale, I knew it was, I just saw that I typed full scale, lol
