Why I write...

I have been keeping a Japanese blog for several years.
The blog's main activity is the translation of foreign songs (mostly English) into Japanese.
I translate my favorite or somebody's favorite English songs into Japanese and make some comments about the songs. I have translated 78 songs so far, 77 English and one German songs. Each article is attached with the song itself picked up from youtube. The blog has found some readers who like those songs too and are happy to understand their lyrics.
It occurred to me one day that it might be a good idea to translate my favorite Japanese songs into English and introduce them to non-Japanese people along with their tune from Youtube.
That's how I started this blog.
My English friend Elliot taught me this English blog. I wanted to join an English blog without any Japanese word around so people from other countries can view the page easily.
I thank Elliot for introducing this blog company. I managed to write the first topic because of his help.
