Kyoto

Kyoto (京都市 Kyōto-shi, pronounced [kʲjoːꜜto.ɕi]; UK /kɪˈt/, US /kiˈ-/, or /ˈkj-/) is a city located in the central part of the island of Honshu, Japan. It has a population close to 1.5 million. Formerly the Imperial capital of Japan for more than one thousand years, it is now the capital city of Kyoto Prefecture located in the Kansai region, as well as a major part of the Kyoto-Osaka-Kobe metropolitan area. Kyoto is also known as the thousand-year capital.

Name

In Japanese, the city has been called Kyō (), Miyako (), or Kyō no Miyako (京の都). In the 11th century, the city was renamed Kyoto ("capital city"), after the Chinese word for capital city, jingdu (京都). After the city of Edo was renamed Tokyo (meaning "Eastern Capital") in 1868, and the seat of the Emperor was transferred there, Kyoto was known for a short time as Saikyō (西京, meaning "Western Capital").

Obsolete spellings for the city's name include Kioto and Meaco. Another term commonly used to refer to the city in the pre-modern period was Keishi (京師), meaning "metropolis" or "capital".

    Kyoto (Skrillex song)

    "Kyoto" is a song by American electronic music producer Skrillex featuring Sirah, taken from his fourth EP as Skrillex, Bangarang. Musically, the song has multiple influences of drum and bass,dubstep and electro house, while also having notable elements of hip hop music and metal music, using "heavy, distorted guitar rhythms" within its composition. The song received generally mixed reviews from music critics, with some criticizing its use of formula in comparison to his previous material. Due to strong digital downloads after the EP's release, the song charted in several countries worldwide, including Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and United States.

    Critical reception

    The song received generally lukewarm reviews from music critics, with some criticizing its similarities to his previous material. Jon O'Brien from Allmusic said "Skrillex's lack of progression means there's a distinct sense of déjà vu among its seven tracks, particularly on the relentless, scattershot bleeps, chopped-up vocal hooks, and repetitive loops of opener "Right In" and the rap-metal fusion of "Kyoto"". Evan Rytlewski from The A.V. Club gave the song a mixed review, saying that it conveys "high drama without superfluous aggression", however, called it a "sub-Travis Barker stab at rap-rock". Kevin Vincenti from The Cavalier Daily gave the song a negative review, saying "The bland “Kyoto” is reminiscent of every other average electro-dance song, and it fails to show the genius of its creator".

    (Ghetto Cowboy)
    The name is Krayzie, big bad ass bone,
    Wanted up north for all the gold that I stole,
    Along with some cash I even took the mayor's daughter,
    Now that there's kidnap, but she was with us so I brought her.
    Dun got myself into a whole heap of trouble,
    Double-crossed by the law so it's nobody to run to,
    Yeah it's just me and my sawed-off shotgun,
    I dun now call him 'Leatherface'.
    I'm headed for the west heard they got a couple banks in town
    That ain't been held up yet, well uh, I oughta make it by sundown,
    I figure that's enough time for me to get the whole rundown,
    So I continue my mission, it's gettin' dark
    So now I'm watching for them damn injuns,
    They like to catch up then they rob -n- split.
    I'll be a rootin' tootin' shootin' damn fool, protectin' my chips.
    All of a sudden, I heard somebody rumble in the bushes, stopped my horse,
    "Whoa nelly! Who in the bushes, you better speak up,
    Or I'mma let my shotgun's song sing out."
    Who's this? Hope this ain't the law, draw out the bushes with my sawed-off shotgun.
    "Come on out right now I'm gettin' angry."
    Took a step back 'cause it could get dangerous.
    "Please don't shoot it's just me Thug Queen Horse Stealer."
    "Then why the hell is you hidin' in them bushes"
    "I'm wanted in 4 countries, for armed robbery, killed 2 sheriffs, 6 of his best men with my head,
    Stole 2 horses, thought you was the law that's why
    I jumped in the bushes."
    "Goodness."
    Now she was hotter than a barrel of fire but I could use her for the job so I told her to ride.
    "Come on."
    "May I ask you what you headed to the west for?"
    "I got a partner got a plan for some dough and if you're down you can pick up yourself a pretty penny.
    Be in town in a minute now be sure if you're with it."
    "We be up before the sun rise got a stall(ion) here for your partner to ride hit the saloon before the moon shine down for whatever let's ride let's ride."
    "These directions say we go to Tucson, Arizona.
    When we arrive we'll cop a place we can bunk,
    And meet my boy in the morning for details -n- hookup."
    You better count your money
    (Ghetto Cowboy)
    You better count your money
    (Ghetto Cowboy)
    "Rise -n- shine, good morning, howdy.
    Nine o' clock we meet my boy in the saloon in the valley.
    Now I dun came a long way and I don't wanna be late.
    "Tell him I'll make it to him, you know we ain't."
    Move out! Giddy up giddy up giddy up
    You better count your money
    "I'm peepin' Krayzie's 'Wanted' poster in the saloon,
    So I assume it'll be trouble round here pretty soon.
    Glanced across the room I seen this youngster gettin' ready to fight
    But if he mess up tonight I think that Krayzie just might take his life.
    So I approached him and I paused.
    "Look man, I really don't wanna brawl, but won't you chill before them laws,
    Come messin' up this master plan,
    Since he already rowdy I'm just asked the man (dang).
    You want some work well partner put in your bid
    And by the way now what's your name, they call me Layzie the Kid."
    "The name's Powder Pete, can I get a 12 gauge!
    Outlaw every day, on the front page.
    Mister Kid, if you give me the low-down me and Blackjack,
    Be ready for the showdown, with 2 double-barrels pointed at whatever,
    We'll stick together, I'm pretty clever."
    "So saddle up, jump on the bandwagon because it's all goin' down."
    I heard the guy runnin' the bar screamin' 'Krayzie's in town.'
    "Now when we get to this saloon, you don't worry, wait outside.
    Don't be stealin' nobody's damn horses."
    Stepped inside the bar.
    "Layzie Kid you son of a gun!"
    "Hey man I'm glad you made it safely, now let's go have some fun.
    And this my partner Powder, he's a young gun.
    "Howdy."
    "Mighty glad to meet ya son.
    Oh yeah, you know I also brought a friend along, meet Thug Queen,
    The horse peddler, straggler, just met her."
    "Howdy partner, already got the horses saddled up."
    "I hope you're good at robbin' banks like you rustle that cattle up."
    "Now y'all, it's gonna be gettin' dark real soon."
    "I think you're right I say we move, come on let's."
    Move out, giddy up giddy up giddy up
    You better count your money
