I found out about Yoko Kanno through a friend that had this song. I LOVE IT! Is there any other songs similar that you'd recommend? I'm an advid fan of tom waits and the waltzy style
@AmyCStar I'm so glad that you're enjoying Kanno along with Waits. If you're looking for single Tracks, I have just a couple I'm consciously aware of. One is by Jack Conte (of Pomplamoose fame), "The Way It Was Before." He has a video of him and a couple others performing the song here on youtube. /watch?v=Bbo_9kyt8CI If you enjoy that, be sure to check out Conte's "Train and Window Collection" /watch?v=21xu9_rtU0E .
I also adore Cibelle's cover of Wait's "Green Grass."
@hydrogenbomb You might also Check out Thomas Fersen. His "Les malheurs du lion" has a bit of the waltzy style I think you're referring to. Aldebert is another French artist you might enjoy. Try his "Dis-Moi Dimanche."
And though they're not always Waltzy, you might check out Massive Attack. When I was in the mood for minor carnival waltzes, I used to find some of their darker tracks equally satisfying. Try "Live With Me," "Black Melt," and "Teardrop."
I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it w1nk3r! I was pretty astounded that it hadn't been uploaded when I searched for it late last year (which is why I decided to).
It's definitely one of Yoko Kanno's most fascinating compositions, in my humble opinion.
@LyliaDemon I love it~ > v < <3

There's a group called Man Man that has a similar sound, for anyone interested.

Good song. Definitely another case of Yoko Kanno drawing very heavy inspiration from Tom Waits.
