[quote="Brye916"]In that line I think that Sawao wants to convince himself in 1989 that his songs will be caught.
Someday, not today but someday it will reach the world. It was a way of telling himself to continue,
even if people tell him he would never have gotten as far as he has today. Maybe Kenji left the band because
he thought they wouldn't go far (his mistake).
I always though Sawao sided differently than Kenji. Like they were battling to decide who would lead the pillows
to fame. Sawao obviously won.
The line from Fool on the planet, "Even if they laugh, I won't doubt myself" was his intention all these years.
Like the song 1989 was like a promise to himself.

Wouldn't it be cool if he wrote this song in actual 1989? And he just found it in his old closet and he showed it to his band members and it became an instant success. We could write a whole chronicle if we keep this up

I would rather you didn't.

Oh SNAP!

Pirouzu ichiban no fanboy became embarrassed-desu!

Bottom line: Don't do it.

I'm not, it was just a joke

I know, I know. ;3 I'm not going to do anything if you guys keep discussing it, merely stating my opinion.

Come on, we were kidding

It's nice to speculate the story behind this song, though

I just took a real look at the lyrics while listening to the song.

Yeah, the lyrics definately make up a lot of the POWER that comes with this song. I was moved by many of the lines.

Amazing song

The last bit should be:

ima ni natte [b]m[/b]urenagara boku wa yatto koko ni kita

I did my own version since I <3 this song:
