I got a little ahead of myself and probably a bit too excited, and
realized tht after I hit that post button. The lines were:
(singing)
"あのこに あげよ。"then
asking
"あのこって だれ?"
the other line right after it was
"ともだちのことよ"
"ともだちって、 なに?"
These are why I thought it meant something like tachi. Hopefully the
japanese gets posted right, since I'm not sure totally on all of it
and want to make sure I don't botch it by adding spaces in romaji.
thanks.
