Secret Ambition

Secret Ambition is the 15th single from Japanese singer Nana Mizuki. Secret Ambition saw a massive change in Nana Mizuki's music style, dramatically changing from pop and powerpop to an explosive rock sound.

Secret Ambition was the first opening theme for the anime Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS and the B-side, "Heart-Shaped Chant" was the theme song for PS2 game Shining Wind). It is currently her second best-selling single.

Music video

The music video of "Secret Ambition" starts off with a scene showing what a white room with a floor covered in looks like a white tea set of china ware. The video features two Nana egos - a "dark" one, and an "innocent" one. The dark one is singing on a stage in dark-coloured clothes, with a dark background and a backing band consisting of guitar and drum players who are also dressed in black or dark colours. The "innocent" one sits crouched in the white room with the cups, in white clothes.

    Secret Ambition

    by: Michael W. Smith

    Young man up on the hillside
    Teaching new ways
    Each word winning them over
    Each heart a kindled flame
    Old men watch from the outside
    Guarding their pray
    Threatened by the voice of the paragon
    Leading their lambs away, leading them far away
    Nobody knew his secret ambition
    Nobody knew his claim to fame
    He broke the old rules steeped in tradition
    He tore the holy veil away
    Questioning those in powerful position
    Running to those who called his name
    But nobody knew his secret ambition
    Was to give his life away
    His rage shaking the temple, his word to the wise
    His hand healing on the seventh day
    His love wearing no disguise
    Some say death to the radical
    He's way out of line
    Some say praise be the miracle
    God sends a blessed sign
    A blessed sign for troubled times
    Nobody knew his secret ambition
    Nobody knew his claim to fame
    He broke the old rules steeped in tradition
    He tore the holy veil away
    Questioning those in powerful position
    Running to those who called his name
    But nobody knew his secret ambition
    Was to give his life away
    Nobody knew his secret ambition
    Nobody knew his claim to fame
    He broke the old rules steeped in tradition
    He tore the holy veil away
    Questioning those in powerful position
    Running to those who called his name
    But nobody knew his secret ambition
    Was to give his life away
    No, no
    No, no
    I tell you nobody knew
    Until' he gave his life away
