The song was originally a Japanese song by Yū Takahashi (高橋 優) called Yakimochi (ヤキモチ). In 2017, it was covered in Chinese by an online Chinese singer with the username 買辣椒也用券 (lit. "Using Voucher to Buy Chillies”), and this Chinese version was later covered by J J Lin and Tsing-Fong Wu(吳青峰). The Chinese lyric was actually based on the Japanese Ghibli movie 風たちぬ(The Wind Rises)

Rain – an experiment with AI support using my original lyrics. Here are 18 different versions in different genres of the same song, some in different languages. I chose Ukrainian, Vietnamese, German, Dutch and Russian as well as English because on Soundcloud they are the countries which seem to have the most plays. I hope that the translations are ok!

The song lyrics are about the normal person trying to be in, or save, a relationship. Everyone should have a chance. And what can go wrong if you make your move too soon….I suppose a similar theme to “Something Stupid” by Frank and Nancy Sinatra.

This was an interesting project which shows how one set of lyrics can be used in such different ways. Part of the motivation is also to see how people respond to the different versions on SoundCloud where my music has a lot of plays, and see which versions and which languages are the most popular.
