AKATSUKI NO KURUMA
Maybe in the future, you will ask me what AGM Song Book is for, why I make a whole post for just a song, and if it is a waste of time and effort, I will answer: "No, I don't think it's a waste", and I have reason myself to invest much in them. It's a representation for my respect, my admiration and my love to the songs and the artists.Then, you can ask another question:"So, what's the others, aren't they worth respecting?". "No", I will reply, "All the songs I put in this blog are my favorite songs. They are all nice songs (as I think), but there're some songs which suit my taste more than other, or are associated with one or my memories, and I put them in AGM Song Book."
That's all my purpose when making this section. Maybe my taste is different from yours, and you will find these songs nothing. Now, we go to the main point. I've talked about Epic songs in previous post, so now I will introduce you one of my favorite Epic songs: Akatsuki no kuruma (Wheels of Destiny).
Akatsuki no Kuruma"is the third single of FictionJunction YUUKA, a singer who sang many Epic songs(especially for Gundam series). The music was composed by great Yuri Kajiura. It was released on September 22, 2004. It is an insert song of the well-known anime Gundam SEED.
Originally, this song was released on "SUIT CD vol.4 Miguel Ayman x Nicol Amarfi". Due the song's popularity and the fact that September 2004 was Gundam SEED's one-year anniversary, it was later released as a single, which sold over 19,481 copies in the first week,at first obtaining the twelfth place on the Oricon charts, which later rose to the tenth.

WHEELS of DESTINY
Translator: Animelyric dot com
Shaded by the trees, calling out to the wind, I'm lying face-down crying
I saw a version of myself I didn't even recognize
On this guitar I'm playing the melody of someone who's passed on
A star falls in the grief of someone who'll never be seen again
Please don't go, no matter how much you scream,
all it will do is quietly stir these orange petals
Saved on my soft brow,
I send the memories in my palm far away
An eternal farewell as I keep strumming
The heart of a child clinging to a gentle hand
The blazing wheels cast it off and continue on
On this guitar I'm playing the grief of someone who's passed on
The strings in my heart being plucked at violently
In the pure white unstained by sorrow,
the orange petals stirred in a summer shadow
Even if my soft brow is lost,
I'll cross over the far off, red-stained sand
The rhythm of farewell
Branded into my memories, on the ever-turning earth,
there is something sprouting in remembrance
Sending off the dawn's carriage
Those orange petals are stirring somewhere even now
The peaceful daybreak I once saw
Until it is placed in my hands once more,
please don't let the light go out
The wheels are turning - Short comment: This song is great! The lyrics is so touching and the music is very epic. Nothing less from Yuri Kajiura!
