Cascade- Kick from the Universe
CASCADE were not only the first Visual Kei band I fell in love with, but the first band I fell in love with at all. This was thanks to the anime Ghost Stories; I watched it around the age of eight or nine due to crazy parental influence and went crazy over the ending theme. I would listen to Sexy Sexy,[sic] but only when my parents weren't around because that word was inappropriate. Later, at the age of 12, I fell in love with their album Butterfly Limited Express.
This is my translation of Kick from the Universe. I love this song to PIECES. It's a fun, stupid song about a fun, stupid sport: soccer. Or football, for most of the world. It's about an "honourable" team who cheat their way to the top and I love them so badly.

[1] This either also mean “earn money”, “score points”, or “work hard”. I chose the third because it’s...vaguer...
