Rurutia

Rurutia is one of my most beloved artists of all time. Her music brings out a lot of emotions in me, whether it be feeling relaxed, melancholy, and nostalgic. She always manages to capture my heartstrings. She has a new age, experimental feel about her and she's unique as an artist in the j-pop scene, debuting in 2001 and with her latest release in 2012.
Her ballads are very beautiful and her more energetic songs feel inspiring. All of her music is extremely pleasant to listen to. She has a specific image and she is a very private artist. Not much is known about her and limited public appearances just add to the air of mystery around her character. Her ethereal and angelic voice adds to the charm. I'd recommend her to anybody who likes emotional, atmospheric music that is easy to get lost in.
Seirios 
Oh glittering Seirios, burning Seirios,
Even if the heavens were burning away,
I can see a dream that my heart will not give up on.
No matter how far I have to go, and no matter how many times I have to stop,
I want to believe in myself. I want to continue believing in myself.

Hallelujah
The angels are falling into depravity
The forbidden high that replaces the holy wings
The swirling lust picks up speed and the town falls further
Oh hallelujah, wash it all away

Pavane
Jade and silver dishes, so much wine you could drown in it
Women opening their hearts and dancing, gold flying about
A mourning pavane echoes through the glass town
What lies at the altar is a hero on a white horse

Sky of Suzaku
The clear sky, an ominous red
The sun, melting its way down the sky
The last smile you left me is so transparent, it’s distorted
There’s an aching rush in my heart that won’t go away


LAST DAY
People become afraid to get close, because they know the pain of saying "goodbye",
but the invisible bonds between us met and grew,  so we nurture those bonds for ever, and ever.
We are sometimes hurt, as we cannot live how we want to,
but this warmth of your hand wrapped around my fingers,
is truly something I want to protect for ever, and ever.

Opus (ballad ver)
Hey, the darkening sky is so stunningly beautiful... 
It's way too bright for me, it's blinding my eyes
So please shut the window and don't let me see anything
I don't want tomorrow to come, it would be better if it never comes
The one who takes you away from me... I wish she would shatter in pieces like broken glass
A flower that rots as a bud is not even capable of having dreams
And it will probably never blossom as a flower

The rising fantasy and the faint moon that are so vain and empty
Soon everything will be buried in the thick blue smoke

Please give us a night that never ends.
