A treasure trove of Robotech 3 concept art

Roger Harkavy stumbled upon envelopes containing over a hundred pages of concept art from MOSPEADA, or as I always thought of it - - the third Robotech tv series. Below are a few highlights, including the motorcycle that morphed into battle armor, and the original samurai-esque look of the mecha:

Christmas Shoes - Newsong Music Video and Lyrics

Christmas Shoes - Newsong Music Video and Lyrics

Christmas Shoes - Newsong

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here"
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me just what Christmas is all about

Repeat Chorus

Kyuukei Jikan Juppun - Kekkaishi OST Music Video and Lyrics

Kyuukei Jikan Juppun - Kekkaishi OST Music Video and Lyrics

Kyuukei Jikan Juppun - Kekkaishi OST

I hate studying, I love chatting
sin cos tan…
Ah, what in the world are those for?
Aren’t they tough? Teacher!
I always regret before a test; that’s my high school life

During a 10-minute break time, I want to do various things
Even though class is over, in front of me
The people who ask questions “do it often”

If only I had a mirror, then I’d feel calm
“My make-up is perfect, my eyes are bright”
Hey, if you look back, there’s a girl with curled hair

I hate studying, I like P.E. somewhat
Basketball, volleyball, and tennis- Huh? An endurance run today
Say it ain’t so, teacher!
My fat shows up and I don’t want muscular pain
I’m such a blossoming high school girl

A 10-minute break ends in a split second
Even if the chime rings, I don’t mind
In infinite foolish talk, “I want a boyfriend.”

If only I had spare time during class
I’d go full-out at text messaging with amazing concentration
I get irritated when replies are slow, looking at the clock

I can’t do tests, I doodle on the back
Hereditary, recombination, DNA…
I don’t even know H well enough
Can I rest for a while? Teacher
My pimples increase during test season; that is youth life

It’s not that I’m not thinking of anything
I don’t know what I should do
It’s not that I don’t want to do anything
The chime hurries everyone along again

I want to fall in love, I want money, too
It’s common to punch away at a cash register and hold a part-time job at a family restaurant
Please give me a ‘Correct’ mark on my life
I can’t enter shifts during test season
I’m such an honest person

During a 10-minute break, I’ll diligently draw
The map of the future

[English Lyrics]

Please dont say, You are lazy,
Because Im really crazy,
Just like how the swans
Kick their legs out of sight.
Faithfully obeying my instincts, I'll accept being tossed around.
Hey, my future is promising -
Thats why I take rests sometimes.

Ill make sure with these eyes
And mark the destination on the map.
If theres a shortcut, thats the best route.
If I had wings to skip over it all, that would also be great.

Crap, I broke a nail! I fixed it with glue.
Somehow, thats enough to give me a sense of achievement.
The important thing is to love yourself.
If you cant love yourself, others can't, either.

Please dont say, You are lazy,
Because Im really crazy,
Just like how wise falcons
Hide their talons out of sight.
I try my best in my imagination, but reality pushes me into a corner.
Hey, Im still growing -
Thats why I go out of pitch unexpectedly.

Its just not reflected in those eyes,
But my willpower breaks out of the meter.
To always dream with all of my energy,
I sleep with all of my energy.

I lost a little weight, and I enthusiastically ate.
With only that much, why? I feel defeated.
I immediately lower my goal.
Im flexible and I adapt, so my dance will win.

Please dont say, You are lazy,
Because Im really crazy,
Just like how peacocks
Charm at the moment they show their beauty.
My entire body works hard to become a slim beauty
Hey, temptation comes often -
Thats why my will breaks down.

Crap, did I fail!? No, I just cleared it!
With just that, I feel like I can do anything.
The important thing is appreciating yourself.
If you cant forgive yourself, others can't, either.

Please dont say, You are lazy,
Because Im really crazy,
Like how the swans are
Kicking their legs out of sight.
Faithfully obeying my instincts, I'll accept being tossed around.
Hey, my future is promising -
Thats why I take rests sometimes.

Jizz in My Pants - Lonely Island Music Video and Lyrics

Jizz in My Pants - Lonely Island

Lock eyes from acros?s the room
Down my drink? while? the rhyth?ms boom
Take your hand and skip the names?
No need here for the silly? games?
Make our way throu?gh the smoke? and crowd?
The club is the sky and I'm on your cloud?
Move in close? as the laser?s fly
Our bodie?s touch? and the angel?s cry
Leave? this place? go back to yours?
Our lips first? touch? outsi?de your doors?
A whole? night? what we've? got in store?
Whisp?er in my ear that you want some more
And I

Jizz in my pants?

This reall?y never? happe?ns you can take my word
I won't? apolo?gize, ? that'?s just absur?d
Mainl?y your fault? from the way that you dance?
And now I

Jizz in my pants?

Don't? tell your frien?ds or I'll say your a slut
Plus it's your fault?, ? you were rubbi?ng my butt
I'm very sensi?tive, ? some would? say that'?s a plus

Now I'll go home and chang?e

(?jorma?)? I need a few thing?s from the groce?ry
Do thing?s alone? now mostl?y
Left me heart? broke?n not looki?n' for love
Surpr?ised in my eyes when I looke?d above?
The check? out count?er and I saw a face
My heart? stood? still? so did time and space?
Never? felt that I could? feel real again?
But the look in her eyes said I need a frien?d
She turne?d to me that'?s when she said it
Looke?d me dead in the face, ? asked? "cash? or credi?t?"
And I

Jizze?d in my pants?

It's perfe?ctly norma?l, ? nothi?ng wrong? with me
But we're? going? to need a clean? up on aisle? 3
And now I'm posed? in an awkwa?rd stanc?e becau?se I

Jizze?d in my pants?

To be fair you were flirt?ing a lot
Plus the way you bag cans got me bothe?red and hot
Pleas?e stop actin?g like you'r?e not impre?ssed
One more thing?, ? I'm gonna? pay by check?

Last week - I saw a film
As I recal?l it was a horro?r film
Walke?d outsi?de into the rain
Check?ed my phone? and saw you rang and I

Jizze?d in my pants?

(?jorma?)?speed?ing down the stree?t when the red light?s flash?
Need to get away need to make a dash
A song comes? on that remin?ds me of you and I

Jizz in my pants?

(?andy)? the next day my alarm? goes off and I

Jizz in my pants?

Open my windo?w and a breez?e rolls? in and I

Jizz in my pants?

When bruce? willi?s was dead at the end of sixth? sense? I

Jizze?d in my pants?

I just ate a grape? and I

Jizze?d... in... ?my pants?

Jizze?d... in... ?my pants?

Ok serio?usly you guys can we... ok?...

I jizz right? in my pants? every? time you'r?e next to me
And when we're? holdi?ng hands? it's like havin?g sex with me
You say I'm prema?ture I just call it ecsta?sy
I wear a rubbe?r at all times? it's a neces?sity

Cuz I

Jizz... ?in... my? pants?

(I jizz in my pants?, ? I jizz in my pants?, ? yes I jizz in my pants?, ? yes I jizz in my pants?)?
Yes I jizz... ?in... my? pants?

Gloria - YUI Music Video and Lyrics

GLORIA - YUI Music Video and Lyrics

GLORIA - YUI

English Translation:

ah ah ah ah ah
The door to fascination? Even your view of your future
Tries to change, because of your youth
Your life changes, you want a girlfriend/boyfriend
But you become a coward, it's like a mountain full of challenges
This feeling...
In order to find the answer,
All night long/oh my love*
I can't throw away this feeling, all night long

Isn't it your dream?
GLORIA 
Just a bit more, and you feel you can reach it
Sometimes I can't see it anymore
 
Cry?
It's the same even if you look for a shortcut
You'll just get lost again

ah ah ah ah ah
All the successful people, they boast
about their experiences, but they sound like they're talking about others
And here I am, in this small room
Thinking, Dreaming of my future
That feeling
I ask myself, but
All night long/oh my love*
I can't imagine that feeling, all night long

Aren't you losing?
GLORIA 
GLORIA just past that bright future
You sure are getting closer

Cry?
I won't blame others anymore
I'll take it all myself
If you can't forget about youself and do this frantically, it's all a lie

uh uh uh When sakura starts blooming
uh uh uh I'll probably be able to find my new self

It's not a dream, you believe that you can do this
Although I'm scared inside

cry?
Get Glory days*
You feel vexed, so Get glory days

Aren't you losing?
GLORIA 
GLORIA in front of the bright future
You sure are getting closer

Cry?
Alone during sleepless nights
Even when you wrap your arms around your knees
baby theres no time to cry

ah ah ah ah ah
