  Let's always be together, ok



[1] I'm pretty sure that the title of the song,
"Ne!" is just a way of getting the attention of the listener 
to make sure that he's listening.  I couldn't think of how to 
translate it, so I just put a "right!" there as in 
"You're listening, right!?"

[2] Omoide no basho is literally "place of memories."
I thought it sounded cleaner as "our place," as in
"the place where we spent a lot of time at, thus 
creating memories there."  Wow, wordy.
