X, Luna Sea...

Aiya~ It's done~!

Annnnnnd, today is my birthday!!! I'm sixteeen!!!

When I read about this contest, there was not a shred of doubt in my mind which album is my favorite - This Iz The Japanese Kabuki Rock stands above all the rest for me.
Drawing track no. 8, "Neo Visualizm", turned out to be kind of intimidating, however. How do I draw a song as complex and important as Neo Visualizm?
My answer can, of course, be seen above. It's the product of setting my pencil to paper with a lot of Miyavi images in my head, and Neo Visualizm playing through my head phones.
Song title: Sakihokoru Hana no You ni -Neo Visualizm-
Album name: This iz the Japanese Kabuki Rock
Artist name: 雅-miyavi-
The music video: [link]
The Lyrics (Miyavi lyrics are often confusing, and they become even more confusing when they're translated to English, so bear with it! ):
X, Luna Sea, and Kuroyume, the guidepost left by our elders,
Break it so it doesn't wipe out, Irony,
Even here I am doing it earnestly,
Singing with the readiness to lose everything,
Don't hinder, Get out of here, Don't judge us by our looks,

But well, foundation, mascara on our cheeks, "because no one knows (who we are) if we take off our makeup",
Saying from first glance, that our skill is empty,
Isn't that bad all the more?
So that it'll be history, That fans can talk proudly,
Of their favorite Big Artists,
Heya Budddy, ya got ready?
Here we come main stream, We're gonna dash, Victory Road,

Looks and genre don't matter,
Wouldn't it be nice if you would just take those off,
Break it down, The seawall of common sense,
Come on let's light it now, the fuse,
Hurry hurry but, Don't worry, It's okay even if you fail, like this,
The winners are the ones who do stuff, Just do it,
No matter how many times it takes,

Like weeds,
If you're trampled on, If you're pulled out, You should bloom proudly,
You should keep on believing, Even if it doesn't rain,
Even if the sun doesn't shine on you,
With a cool face, With a confused look, If you're lost you should ask someone,
If you've lost sight of your dreams you should close your eyes again,
And someday again it'll open up for you,
Spread your arms wide,

Rokumeikan, AREA and SAIBA & ON AIR WEST
If I look, where have my youth and New Years gone?
Advance to the west and the east,
The highway where I ride my dreams and desires in the van,
I wonder what has changed since then,
Or what was left unchanged,
Since I can't go back to that time I have only to create it once again I suppose?
On the long and winding road, There's no time to look back, Bro.

We are still on the way in our lives,
So then it's useless to just create walls,
And no point in thinking over this and that,
Let's go on like where we go is just a game, Buddy,
Hey hey? Why'd you suddenly start dancing, keep on moving,
Open that flower, Now in the middle of the night,
The new century is gonna end bloomin',

If you're trampled on, if you're pulled out, you should bloom proudly.
You should keep on believing, Even if it doesn't rain,
Even if the sun doesn't shine on you,
With a cool face, with a confused look, If you're lost you should ask someone,
If you've lost sight of your dreams you should close your eyes again,
And someday again it'll open up for you,
Spread your arms wide, Towards the light of the sun.
