The Goddess' Playlist Pride Special! Macaronage of Love and Excitement




Welcome to another edition of The Goddess' Playlist and this time we are celebrating Pride Month as I featured another song from the Pretty Cure Series, "Macaronage of Love and Excitement."

Performed by Saki Fujita and Nanako Mori aka Cures Macaron and Chocolat's seiyuus, and written and composed by the music group Nostalgic Orchestra, the song was released on July 26, 2017 as part of KiraKira☆Pretty Cure A La Mode Vocal Album: Cure La Mode☆A La Carte and again of KiraKira☆Pretty Cure A La Mode Vocal Best Album: Suite☆Etude☆A La Mode which released on January 17, 2018 under the label Marvelous!, distributed by Sony Music Marketing.

Some fans noticed the song as the gayest among the Cure songs as well as how it compared to Love Live!'s "Glass Garden/Garasu no Hanazono" and had quite similarities to Sailor Moon Crystal's "Eternal Eternity" (plus Sailor Uranus and Pikario/Rio Kuroki shared the same seiyuu that is Junko Minagawa).

Anyway I just can't contain any longer and my shipping goggles and gaydar went overload whenever I hear that song like several times and honestly speaking, ChocoMaca are among my favorite ships in the Cure series because they're so sweet (no pun intended) and their relationship is just very irresistible in both the anime (espcially episodes 25 and 29 oh my freaking gosh aaaaahh) and the manga, wherein the latter has some oozing gay content. Ahhh man, I really love this ship so much!!!

Okay fangirl squealing aside, check out the lyrics below if you want to sing along:

Japanese

中途半端な優しさなら これ以上ごめんだわ
放っておいてよ ほっとけないよ
甘いだけじゃ罪ね ショコラ

強がらないで わがままの裏 隠してるのは
今にも壊れそうな やわらかなHEART

まっすぐに こっち向いて
見つめないで 見せてよ
ゆれる瞳の奥まで

ちぐはぐな心ざらつかせて
混ざりあわないマカロナージュ
タイセツを傷つけて失ってしまうくらいなら
守りたい理由はただひとつ
君が大好きだから
受け止めるよ気まぐれも
手間暇かけて愛情こめて

クールなとこも繊細なのも本当の君だから
見過ごせないよ 関係ないでしょ
フタツでヒトツさ マカロン

完璧じゃない誰も知らない臆病な私
弱さを包み込む惜しみないLOVE

逃げないで どうしてなの?
離さないよ 戸惑いを
焦れる瞳に映して

ウラハラな心重ねあわせ
確かめあいたいマリアージュ
態度より 声にして
熱いこの想いを伝えなきゃ
守りたいぬくもり優しさを
知ってしまったなら
味わいましょ ときめきを
心ゆくまで もっと溶けるまで

お人好し でも嫌いじゃないわ
意地っ張り 仮面を外して
まなざし まるで王子様
ショータイムさ お嬢様

まっすぐに こっち向いて
見つめないで 見せてよ
濡れた瞳の奥まで

抱きしめて

ちぐはぐな心ざらつかせて
混ざりあわないマカロナージュ
タイセツを傷つけて
失ってしまうくらいなら
守りたい理由はただひとつ
君が大好きだから
受け止めるよ気まぐれも
手間暇かけて愛情こめて

English

If it's halfhearted kindness, I've had enough
Leave me be; I can't leave you alone
Being nothing but sweet is a sin, Chocolat

Don't put up a front, hidden beneath the selfishness
Is a soft heart, even now about to break

Don't look at me; face me
So straightforwardly like that; show me
Into the depths of those trembling eyes

Mismatched hearts in a frenzy,
A macaronage that won't blend
If I were to lose or hurt, what's so important to me is
My only reason for wanting to protect you
Because I love you
I'll accept everything, even the memories
I'll go through all the trouble for you, with all my affections

Your coolness and your delicate side are all the real you
I won't lose sight of you; that's all beside the point
They're one and the same, Macaron

I'm not perfect, the cowardly me that no one knows
Has no problem hiding all her weaknesses for love

Don't run; why
I won't let go of you; I'm at a loss
Reflecting those impatient eyes

Hearts at odds overlap
A marriage wanting certainty
Rather than gestures, put it into words
I have to convey these burning feelings
This warmth and kindness I want to protect
If we're aware of it
Let's savor our racing hearts
As much as we want, until we melt even more

You're pushy, but I don't mind it
I'll take off that stubborn mask
Oh my, aren't you just like a prince
It's showtime, Madam

Don't look at me; face me
So straightforwardly like that; show me
Into the depths of those tearful eyes

Hold me tight

Mismatched hearts in a frenzy,
A macaronage that won't blend
If I were to lose or hurt
What's so important to me is
My only reason for wanting to protect you
Because I love you
I'll accept everything, even the memories
I'll go through all the trouble for you, with all my affections

Thanks for reading another edition of The Goddess' Playlist! I hope you enjoy celebrating Pride Fest even at the comfort of your homes and Happy Pride to our mates in the LGBTQ+ community! Till the next featured contents, guys!
