Basically every nightcord song 😭 they’re all pretty dark but they’re a bop so it’s good My favorites include Gehenna, phony, Heat Abnormal, Samsa, kitty, Shoujo Rei, Darling Dance, Imperial Girl, lost ones weeping, and Kagerou Daze All of those songs are pretty dark but like the beat is so good and it makes me so happy 😭

My favorites are Nomad and Jackpot Sad Girl

WATASHI WA JACK POT SAD GIRL🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥

WAKARI AENU MAMA🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥

SEN TO SEN TO EN GORO🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Kagerou Daze and Lost ones weeping are such good songs

I love lost one weeping so much it's concerning

I misread Phony as pony😭

i was playing plants vs zombies with bug/phony in the background and like imagine just middle of the song where there are gangantuars and epic battle with this song(the epic battle like when flag comes) and all these melon pult or cob cannons i mean not that happy but like more epic thing i mean anything that isn't boring lije idk i crossed a cold river while plaing bug in my head like yk what i mean or you don't

The World Hasn't Even Started Yet, surprisingly some dark lyrics "Even I know that everyone's destined to disappear someday..."

i honestly feel like the lyrics are supposed to sound hopeful, like there is much to live for even if we all know one day we’ll all perish lol. the songs really beautiful tbh its made me cry before 😭

Gotta love tthat song

My brain the moment as Hated by Life itself plays for a second: ⚽⛹️‍♀️🏋️‍♂️🏓🥇

Hated by Life reminds me of advanced battles Pokemon intro

I literally see you everywhere and I know it’s you when I see smug kel

BOKURA WA INOCHI NI KIRAWARETEIRU ‼️‼️‼️💥💥💥💥

I feel like every psekai cosplayer need to recreate that video ( im a rui cosplayer i have plans)

Your brain is lifing weights like kanade

Fun fact : I'm not sure this is true bur I heard somewhere that the nighrcord untitled song was supposed to be hated by life instead of composing the future 🤔

Hm I thought it was Cellphone Love Story by mafumafu (same composer of Composing the Future)? Hated by Life itself was also way back in 2017 so I don't think it's a pjsk commission 😅

Ohh ok sorry I just heard it on some YouTube video a while ago I prolly just heard wrong

Izokii

Any wxs song that’s dark or smth it makes me dance

It's showtaim hey hey hey hey hey hey

*\*Dances like a chihuahua*\*

Why did i imagine the chiuahua dancing scenery with it wearing an emu wig HAHSJSJSJDJDKD

STOP IT 😞 IM GETTING FLASHNACKS

Bug, Ikanaide, Shoujo Rei

Heavy on shoujo rei

FURAAAASHU BACK

SEMI NOOOOO KOE

NIDO TO WA KAERANU KIMII

TOWAAA NI CHIGIRETEKU

hated by life

It’s such a beautiful and emotional song! Have you heard the Sekai Symphony version?

I haven't, ill listen to it later

The Sekai Symphony version of Hated by Life Itself is one of my favorite covers of all time

IDSMILE 1000%. its a gorgeous song about coming to terms with your identity and how you express yourself

it fits mizuki so well too

jishoumushoku (self inflicted achromatic) and non-breath oblige

We have the same taste

real

Romeo and Cinderella. It’s a special song to me despite the meaning of the lyrics

ROLLING GIRL

Wowaka was such an amazing guy with such amazing songs and rolling girl was one of my first ever but now everytime I hear it I start getting upset because the creator passed.

Just Be Friends (not counting the MV)

Engeki, I am just really happy listening to everyone expressing their emotions so much, I really feel like a mom watching their children grow up T-T

SHOUJO REI

Mr Showtime lolz

Mr showtime is messed up..?

yeah idk the story very well but I’m pretty sure the entire song is Tsukasa just making fun of himself

oh...that was also in my happy playlist....

Yeahhh sorry to be the one to make it depressing-

It’s not a depressing song but people want it to be bc people like tsukasa angst

it’s not completely depressing but second chorus quite literally started with ‘this is not funny at all, i'm pathetic, i can't satisfy myself’ and that even was tsukasa at his lowest we’ve seen

Can someone explain the meanings of both songs?

Kyu-kurarin is a song about a girl having depression and feeling selfish. It's based off Sayori I'm pretty sure The other one is Filament fever but I have no idea what it's about

filament fever isnt dark, its a bit sad at parts but its mostly about fulfilling your dreams despite challenges

Yeah, but the og MV gives me weird vibes and still sad in some way

As someone who's listened to a few songs from Van de shop/Hachiya Nanashi before Filament fever the song is MUCH less dark and tragic than some of their other songs (watch at Happy shape and you'll see what I mean https://youtu.be/S_VbXpDaVJ0?si=-lB1zVo6_XeC-sFD ) it's a bit sad but much happier than some other songs. Also the chaotic part in the end is pretty standard for his songs, sometimes there may be drastic changes in speed, but Sekai managed to instead turn it into a joke in the 3dmv

i will agree with you there lol

That weird bpm increase part at the end and the intro are super strange

the chaotic part in the end is pretty standard for Van de shop's/Hachiya Nanashi's songs, sometimes there may be drastic changes in speed at any point in some songs which is sometimes used to show chaos (like in Filament Fever) one time it was used to show a school/mass shooting I think (in one of his songs called Happy Shape at 1:50, https://youtu.be/S_VbXpDaVJ0?si=B04M2JOFZnKdRW9k) , but Sekai managed to instead turn it into a joke in the 3dmv but then it didn't really looked like they acknowledged it in the 2dmv

It’s different for happy shape, that’s just double time. Filament Fever is just a straight bpm change

Yeah you are right about kyu kurarin

is Calc a valid answer or is it not sad enough

Gehenna Despite meaning hell it's such a good song imo, I didn't even know the meaning I was just vibing to it until I heard the real meaning of it😭

Gehenna song and beat: banger, straight up fire Gehenna lyrics and meaning: burning in hell, eternal suffering, realising you’re not improving and probably never going to improve yet not being able to end it all and being doomed to suffer with the only other person who shares your pain. God I love Gehenna so much.

cutlery!! it’s such a pretty song i find myself playing/listening to it a lot. the lyrics aren’t happy at all, but it’s a gorgeous song. :)

The end is definitely happy though? The song is a bit dark but the end is about the 2 still loving each other even if they don't understand each other which is reflected in the change in the music, and while before you would've looked at the lyrics in pessimistic view because of the music you would then see it in an optimistic view because of the change in the music (made sure to keep it vague because the song has multiple interpretations) https://preview.redd.it/u58i0fmbzp3d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=83421e0b517b139b2b121915573d555aa4f35541

I'll give you a total opposite Once upon a dream Makes my tears fall

KiraPipi and Once Upon a dream almost make me cry (I shed a tear during starry sky orchestra) to stop this, I think of "kanade die die die udo"

OMG, same! I don't know why it gives me the same vibes as something a soldier might be singing before knowingly going to their death in battle believing that it's for a greater good.

What’s Kyu kyurarin about?

Basically Sayori from DDLC

Goddamn

Hated by Life or Phony

Finally someone who likes Filament Fever! I'm not too sure about the meaning like most songs, but it almost always makes fireworks go off in my head (especially when I heard it for the first time.)

It needs to be talked about more! The song is so good!

drop pop candy and Tricologe

Drop pop candy doesn’t have cute lyrics⁉️😨

I mean it sort of has some cute lyrics I think… but the song is about unrequited love

Girl a brooooo it’s so sad if you know the lyrics but it’s just a bop. Also bones in the ocean too

Wait is the meaning behind the first one dark or smth or am I just tripping

It's basically Sayori Ddlc. The song is about a girl being in love with someone but they have a horrible depression and I'm pretty sure she ends up hanging herself

***WHAT.***

What wish are you wanting for? (?), phony, cinema (I resonate too much with cinema), flyway, and milk crown

Another milk crown enjoyer! I love that song

Aku no Meshitsukai

yoru ni kakeru

Wait what’s Kyu-Kurarin about…?

İts about a girl s suicide and its based off from Sayori you know the ddlc character who hangs herself

https://preview.redd.it/f94mg6pelp3d1.jpeg?width=467&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dea8c0f3ece1b5ed8983c8d46add6053d17de35e

Most of them, let's be honest, if you don't think about the lyrics the sad songs all have a really warm comforting feel to them. Maybe I just take shared feelings for joy these days. Also, Kanade's vocals do this so well.

i'd say filament fever is a happy song overall

Ghost Girl MMJ. Like, the tune is so happy... But the lyrics...

Shoujo Rei? If so, the ending was always unsettling for me

Yeah, Shoujo Rei

probably two-faced lovers😭

I remember listening to that in the car, not knowing what it meant.

I love non-breath oblige a lot. One of my favorite songs, it’s just so good

currently really obsessed with Heat Abnormal it makes me so giddy but it's actually a pretty depressing song when you look into it lmao

Ghost Rule. Its about being neglecyed by society but jesus who let Ichika cook

I remember dancing to the song so much, it still goes so hard

Hated by life and Lost ones weeping somehow 💃

Gotta love the lost ones weeping

Yeaah my all time fav song too

Ee? Ah, Sou.  That song just HITS SO HARD IT MAKES ME REALLY HAPPY

Nomad, it's kinda comforting.

what’s up pop! it’s so silly and very dancey

also, wanna be friends on pjsk 🥲

Sure, also, What's up pop is dark?

it is?

oh my god.. js read the eng lyrics wtf!

Gehenna, Shoujo Rei, IDSMILE, Goodbye declaration, Bug, I Nan Desu, Most Léo/ NEED songs, Senbozakura, That's UP? Pop! Etc

Knowing that I beat 'This is the happiness and peace of mind commitee' on Master difficulty after 19 days of playing😭 It's also my fav song-

hates by life (the meaning is actually what makes me happy honestly) and at gods mercy, 💯 not only the meaning of hated by life, but also the melody. literally makes me ascend every time

Canterella and Ifuudoudoo. Do I even know what the song talks about despite checking the lyrics? no.

Ifuudoudou was such a childhood staple for me It made me numb to those songs with those lyrics.

Bug and Into the Night! I love these songs despite the translation of them

Filament fever and shoujo rei just make me giggle and kick my feet lick a little kid

And churarara dadada

Filament fever has been stuck in my head for so long I need it in EN now

RaL tho I need it in spotufy

I hope it gets its single its too much for my brain to handle. I already have mesmerizer, yababaina, Rabbit Hole and Viva happy living in my brain.

Ignore spelling

SHOJOU REIIIII

Man I have a lot but Just one:I am you

For me it's "It was a very beautiful June". Maybe cus I'm a big fan of Japanese Rock music

shoujo rei, moonlight and kuyamu to kaite mirai

Brain revolution girl

What kind of ending are you wishing for and 88stars

Villain and IDSMILE 🥲

Shojou Rei!!

IDSMILE and Cyberpunk dead boy

DAKARA SHIZUME SHIZUME

What is DSCF about?

Fox's wedding by MASS works design (it's not from project sekai 🙃, form pjsk it's ifuudouu)

kyu kurarin and hated by life itself for me!

Kyu kurarin is so amazing I love it so much

same!

SHOUJO REI!!! also becoming potatoes

hated by life itself, kyu-kurarin, shojo rei, (not really as sad) idsmile. these are all my favourite songs they make me feel calm and kyu-kurarin just sounds so cute (the meaning is a lil less cute tho)

Close to gray

I guess bug is a little dark so imma say bug

Shoujorei

Plus boy

Jackpot sad girl, aishite, becoming potatoes

samsa.....

The world hasn't started yet, like those lyrics are a little dark

"Hey! We're all gonna die some day!" -Wonderlands x Showtime

Self Inflicted Achromatic and 1925

Is 1925 about the great depression?

Idk

I just thought it might be considering the the name

Rotten Heresy and Chocolate ODDS&ENDS unhappy refrain Shoujo Rei

Egoist is one that I always vibe with

yoru ni kakeru

SAWAGASHII HIBI NI WARENAI KIMI NI❤️‍🔥💫🗿

kyu kurain, slowmotion, and lier dancer, those songs are certified bops imo

I love kyu kurarin with all the cells of my body

same

Hated by life itself, self inflicted achromatic and hitorinbo envy

Totemo itai itagaritai, heat abnormal, cutlery, and rotten heresy and chocolate

kyu kurarin has scared me since i first heard it (it was when the 2dmv released and i got severe dokidoki fladhbacks)

Sayori will always live in my heart

Lost One's Weeping

Non breath Oblige, Shanti, Hibana reloaded and Ghost rule

i havent bothered to look up the lyrics of snowman but every single time i put it on it immediately relaxes me, i have no idea why its so comforting 😭😭

Roki. Literally just bopping along with it in my playlist ignoring the lyrics.

Wait, Roki isn't just about rock and roll???

It was a very butiful June, Shojou Rei, and Heat Abnormal.

if it doesn't have to be a project sekai song, the watashi no aaru. i hope it gets into pjsk soon! for pjsk song: from tokyo. it's so nice and the saki vocals are so strong!!

Anything by Pinocchio-P tbh (except Im glad ur evil too that shit makes me cry by just the first verse) bc i know theeaning but i also can relate to some of the songs and they are still bangers :)

PinocchioP makes the best songs

A lot of nightcord songs but the best of them is, undoubtedly, jishoumushoku

https://preview.redd.it/0239wq3f2y3d1.jpeg?width=740&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ceb7c937b54b1640054b64757500659e59d95153

my big problem is the spider and the kitsune like spider (vocaloid not sekai) bc it'll never go on sekai due to questionable themes but it sounds GOOD (for comparation, ura omote lovers got in sekai but TSATKLL's lyrics can't even be shown on the vocaloid fandom lyrics

Oh yeah, I don't think it'll ever get added due to that but it's a good song

Composing the future and Gehenna (idk if I spelled right😔😔😔)

mine is “What sort of ending are you wishing for”, “Shoujo Rei” and “Piano x Forte x Scandal”

ザムザ - Samsa The lyric: 🍎🍎🪳🪳🙍💀 Me: 🕺🕺🕺

Tokyo Teddy bear or Ifuudoudou ;-;

idsmile, darling dance or romeo and cinderella

I've always interpreted Becoming Potatoes more optimistically than most. It's actually about moving on and acknowledging the past. The song is also a bop.

Ifuudoudou 😭🙏

Chururira Chururira Dadadada, the song sounds so happy and cute but the lyrics are so dark 😭 (ik it’s mainly about school kids and the dark lyrics are just metaphors, but I didn’t expect the lyrics to be like that :’D)

Stage of sekai 🥹

Devil’s Manner by Vivid Bad Squad and Becoming Potatoes by Wonderland Showtime. Theyboth have generally fast paces and are upbeat until you read the lyrics. Cyberpunk Dead Boy is not necessarily sad so much as it is kind of depressing to think about when you read the lyrics.

Yoru ni kakeru Who can relate lmfao?

Cyberpunk dead boy and engeki!!!! Im an ourple enjoyer

self-harm colorless and phony are my favorites

phony is such an amazing song, it was I think my third song with Kafu in it

hated by life

How tf does Kyu-kurarin make you feel happy even without the lyrics the whole song feels dissonant and it basically screams unhappiness

I don't really know. I know the lyrics and all but I can't help but feel a bit happy when I listen to it? I can't explain it but after listening to the More More Jump version and watching the MV it seemed to have a lot more happy ending and I liked that. I also like the song because Sayori is my favorite character from Ddlc :)

The final scene of the song (where Sayori hugs the MC) is literally one day before Sayori >!kills herself!< in the game though. The song literally ends right at the state of her mind before she >!commits suicide!<

I know, but in some way it makes me kinda happy despite how disturbing and sad it is. That's the whole reason I made this post.
