Revision as of 17:19, 14 May 2022
This is a collection of the songs and performances for Sheryl Nome, a.k.a. the Galactic Fairy, on Super Robot Taisen MOO! Because this is for a crossover game rather than Macross Frontier canon, it may not line up 100% with canon/may make some things up to fill in the gaps. It'll also eventually include non-Frontier May'n songs as Sheryl's career expands beyond the scope of canon plot. Frontier on SRT MOO follows the TV version for the most part, but some parts of the movies and manga are adapted, and that includes the songs.
Song Releases
Debut Single: Diamond Crevasse / Sagittarius☆9PM Don't Be Late
Sheryl's first songs, released when she was 16 in early December 0094. Diamond Crevasse is the debut of her debut songs, and was a song she'd been working on for years before it was professionally produced. As such, she wrote the lyrics and music herself, though someone else did the arrangement. It's meant to express her wretchedness when she was living on Galaxy without any family or friends. Sagittarius☆9PM Don't Be Late was the C/W ("coupled with"); she didn't write either the lyrics or the music. It's just supposed to be fun and flirty, as that was the image Sheryl Nome was going to lean into.
2nd Single: Pink Monsoon / I Became An Angel
Sheryl's second single, released so soon after the first that sometimes fan confuse which came first, in late December 0095. Pink Monsoon was mostly not written by Sheryl, but she included a few lines to make it more her own as it leans hard into "horny" and she was a minor at the time. She did write I Became an Angel, which is about her life on Galaxy after her manager, Grace O'Connor, scouted her up off the streets and took her in.
3rd Single: What 'Bout My Star? / Welcome to My Fan Club's Night!
The final part of the initial blitz of singles to bring Sheryl Nome into prominence among, released early February 0095. Sheryl wrote neither of these songs; they're meant to project more of that fun and flirty public image, and to encourage the fanbase to get more and more into her performances. Despite this, the popularity of Diamond Crevasse made sure that fans still understood Sheryl had a deeper side.
4th Single: Eternity / Infinity
Released about half a year into her career in August 0095, Sheryl finally fully took the reins of songwriting to release a themed single. Eternity is about falling into despair over losing a loved one, and Infinity is about the hope of one day seeing them again.
1st EP: Diamond Crevasse
Released October 0095 as a gathering of some of her songs.
Track 1: Welcome to My Fan Club's Night! (Styles Version)
Track 2: What 'Bout My Star?
Track 3: Sagittarius☆9PM Don't Be Late (Japanese title: Iteza☆Gogo Kuji Don't be late)
Track 4: Infinity
Track 5: Diamond Crevasse
Bonus: Video of Sheryl's first live performance of Diamond Crevasse
5th Single: Universal Bunny / Izolado
Released shortly before SRT MOO game open in January 0096. Leaning further into the themes of time and longevity that she worked with in her previous single, Sheryl designed the live performance of Universal Bunny to have a strong clock theme, though the song itself is more about the dichotomy of woman. Izolado (Esperanto for "isolation") returns to the themes of living in Galaxy, but this time presumes a fantasy of someone having been there with her when she was on the streets. Sheryl hasn't commented on who that someone might be, if it's anyone at all.
2nd EP: Universal Bunny
Released February 0096. This is close to the real-world version of the Sheryl Nome starring May'n full EP Universal Bunny; the main difference is that songs that haven't ICly been released yet were cut.
Track 1: Universal Bunny
Track 2: Pink Monsoon
Track 3: Izolado
Track 4: Eternity (Japanese title: Eien)
Track 5: I Became an Angel (Japanese title: Tenshi ni Nacchatta) (Universal Version)
Bonus: Music video of Universal Bunny, of which the live performance is a recreation
Unreleased Songs
Lion
A new song that Sheryl first performed at a special pre-Earth Sphere Global Tour mini-concert on a Nergal space liner. The ship was attacked by Zentraedi separatists, sending it down into the Earth's atmosphere. Sheryl performed the song live during the fall. It hasn't yet been officially released on a single, but she's continued to perform it during her Earth Sphere Global Tour concerts, and has been receiving rave reviews.
Sheryl's Sister Spaceship
Performed at the first stop in Sheryl's Earth Sphere Global Tour, Macross City. It's a cover of famous Macross enka star Kiichiro Tokugawa's Sister Spaceship with lyrics adjusted to suit Sheryl's circumstances, specifically the loss of her hometown colony, Macross Galaxy, to the ravages of the Vajra. Due to her leaning hard into the Japanese aesthetic, some have speculated that it might also be about Britannia's occupation of southwestern Japan. It's available for download but has not yet appeared on any singles or albums.
