I went out to a noraebang (노래방, karaoke room) a while back, and one of the guys I was with sang this cool Japanese song, Wasurenaikara (忘れないから). I liked it so much I bought the CD.
I wanted to learn the words to it, but one of the problems with Japanese CDs is that they don't give the pronunciation for the kanji (called "furigana"). When you see the character "時" do you pronounce it "ji" or "toki"? Like the words "read" and "present," the pronunciation depends on the context.
So after a couple hours of research with Windows XP's Japanese Language Pack, here's my contribution to the list of lyrics on the Internet: Gackt's Wasurenaikara, complete with furigana.
