GACKTのツイターの英訳

[Square brackets indicate my own thoughts. Tweets without them are translations of GACKT's]
Congrats, Go!

When he contacted me the other day, I blurted out, "Go's a dad now!"

I can't imagine it at all, but I guess he's all smiles right now.

I suppose he's been through a lot up until now, but now he has one more reason to work hard.
Keep smiling and press on forward!

As always, there are too many people who obsess over the problems of strangers.

It's uncouth to butt in on a personal problem that you don't know the truth about.
Perhaps I'd understand if it were the media, who make their money doing that.

GACKT on X: "相変わらず他人の問題にお熱な人間が多すぎる。 真実が分からない個人間の問題に口を挟むのは野暮。 それでカネを稼いでいるメディアならまだ分かる。 だが、無関係で無利益なことに騒いでる奴らはなんなんだ? 暇なのか、それとも自分の劣等感を些細な優越感で満たしたいのか?…" / X

Today is the final show of LAST SONGS.
It's thanks to you all that I've been able to make it through to today, thank you.

LAST SONGS is a tour with a focus on making everything non-digital, live performance.
The content has finally reached the point where I can confidently say "We managed it."

The way I responded to this incident is not at all "because my personality has become gentler".

If you perform live for 30 years, you learn to detect and judge the psychological state of the fans that come to watch.

[Article: During GACKT's concert in Osaka on the 18th, an audience member repeatedly interrupted the show with things like "I paid a lot for this ticket, so say something funny!" and "What plastic surgeries have you had?" GACKT was praised for responding calmly and with humor. ]

I heard today's White Day.

I've always thought it was only school kids and night-life districts that get excited over Valentines Day and White Day, but am I wrong?

I've thought this way for a long time,
but many people who are successful are those who get obsessed with things and pursue them to the bitter end.

If you're half-hearted about it, it's just a waste of time and money.

It's been 13 years.

We are living today, a day that they couldn't live no matter how much they wanted to.
I won't let those feelings and memories erode.

A moment of silence for the precious lives lost in the Tohoku Earthquake.

The happiest part of appearing on Music Station yesterday was being able to see SHOTARO from RIIZE for the first time in ages.

The truth is that even in the industry, my tours are said to be exceptionally tough.

There was Maeda, INORAN, Matsuoka, Sho from Kishidan, Shinya from Dir En Grey, KAMIJO, ASH, Kiryuin, Pierre, Hiro from my first story, MiA, HIROTO from Alice Nine... and many other kouhai of mine. About 30 people.

Graduating students who were blessed with good friends, who managed to celebrate your youth in your club activities, studies, and romance. Be grateful that your student life was wonderful, and keep charging forward.

Congratulations on graduating.

Graduation ceremony season is upon us again.
Tomorrow, K and I will give the graduating students a push forward.

A graduation ceremony is also a day to express gratitude your family for supporting you and the people who helped you.

Everyone who is graduating,
say "thanks" to those who helped you.

Even from a distance, they come flying in to your field of vision.

I guess you could call it an aura.

Kuu-chan, Nanase and Kiryuin attended my show yesterday.

No matter how they disguise themselves, I can immediately tell where they are.

There are people like that among the general population.

Second day of the tour.

Today, Maeda from TUBE will appear as a guest in LAST SONGS 2024 feat. K.
"Sayonara No Kawari Ni" has also been rearranged for LAST SONGS and is sounding good.

Everything is live and a single round fight.
Maeda, I'm looking forward to it!

LAST SONGS 2024 feat. K starts today.

Myself, K, the strings section, the session musicians involved in the performance.
And everyone in the audience.

It's a live performance space with no substitute, created when everyone breathes in time with me.

My post yesterday was honest feelings that I truly wanted to get across.

If I said I had no regrets at all in life, it would be a lie.

But if I can feel happy in the present, I can accept that those regrets and failures were stepping stones towards happiness.

Dear young people,

It's an important idea to save 20 million yen and invest for when you're old, but there's no need to sacrifice the present by thinking about retirement starting in your 20s.

If you like someone you like them.
If you miss them, you miss them.

Feelings lose their power if you don't tell of them in the moment.
You could say they have a best-before date.

Just carrying your feelings inside you won't change your situation.

He's finally returned to the screen!
Iseya-kun, I was waiting for you, welcome back!

While you were over there eating grass, I was forced to eat white powder, it was terrible.

It's a shame we can't fight side by side, but more than anything, I'm truly glad that you're back.
