Takagi Masakatsu - Girls

[SolidGaby]

So all these are memories?

[GeorgiaBondy]

If only humans were as lovely as those who this depicts

[neo191996]

Me recuerda ami infancia

[DerrickthePinecone]

42 people are lost in space.

[Watekei]

Awesome!

[ccskatepark]

anybody recognize the video filters that created most of this?

[sleepytimedreamers]

@ccskatepark he makes his own. 

[ccskatepark]

@sleepytimedreamers ...outstanding! ...then he rotoscopes (hand draws frame by frame). It reminded me of some stacked adobe premiere filters.

[JasmineMistyLeaf]

beautiful ^_^

[ninjabeanmedia]

This is the remains of past memories...what one must cherish, for it's all that they have.

[TurnOnAndyshine]

Genius

[coconuts830]

Truly*

[coconuts830]

True brilliant artist.

[mechaleeX]

remind u of past reltionships :P

[VeryKookie]

love the music. love the vid.. makes me want to learn how to do piano & video editing :P

[goodgoodgoodful]

kind of dreamy. surreal. distorted vision inducible by certain stuff, if you know what I mean.

[THEIMMORTALxyz]

i feel it

[bravicimo]

I won't buy the tv but i will buy the cd!

[Bluefirecrashdown]

Thank you Lumines 2 for allowing me to discover this song.

[galactopress]

I hate it that after watching and listening to this beautiful video, I automatically get that stupid videosuggestion of that girls ass :(

[DaSoundOfClubMixes]

takagi masakatsu has the same vision i have. i love him

[MrSnufkin1226]

Here, I found a genius. Just thanks for the god to give a life to this genius, I met a new form of human, and i think his world is just beautiful. I guess this is the way he sees this shitty world. I wish i have a filter he has. if i had that, the world is just breathtaking.

I like seeing his work so much better than looking at people only criticizing.

[Pr0x1mo]

39 people are bratty lil boys who thinks "girls" have the cooties.

[weaponsofmasturbatio]

Fucking amazing, hands down.  This man is an artistic Megalodon.

[willg54]

what music is this? it is wicked good!!

[Wezuhley]

If you reach to click 'thumbs down,' I'm afraid you must know that you still have so much to learn about life.

Step outside, get very low to the ground and tilt your head ALL THE WAY BACK. You're now seeing life through a "wide angle" perception, close to 270 degrees from side-to-side. Get dizzy, drink it in.

[BootlegAsparagus]

@Wezuhley OR we have our own opinions about the music, I'm afraid you have so much to learn about other's opinions.

[sanobabitti]

nice :)

[ScruffyChoi]

:' )

[marcomixmatte]

it's incredible how everything he does, plays and composes, it's perfect.

[marcomixmatte]

meraviglioso.

[Nekii89]

This is one of the most amazing music I have ever heard

[bravicimo]

@Nekii89 the way its presented is amazing too :-)

[Mavierk]

to jest piękne, it's beautiful.

[ERTWbitches]

F'ing beautiful. Brought a tear to my eye.

[magician226]

beautiful

[mistablah]

If you believe in fate, message me.

[alexandreasilveira]

Its very beautifull, realy,......sleep

[moncmon]

i was thinking of the title 'Girls' i gave the video and the sound a lot of thought..

video = the video is uhmmm.. kind of complicated and blurry and colorful, just like girls in my opinion. They are complicated to understand sometimes blurry.. but makes our wolrd Colorful! haha

sound = the sound had mixed feelings.. there was a part where it feels so happy and adventurous. and there was a part where it just kept slow and felt emotional. again... Just like girls. Cool Vid.

[musicsmyelement]

this stuff is awesome! emily of applemilk1988 introduced me and seriously i think its awesome! just different and peaceful and unique!

[morganic88]

Very sweet dreamy video art. Thankyou...

[Unidentified2objects]

the way of filming this video is like memories to me.., Peaceful memories filled with joy...

[n15M0]

@AlwaysReady4Luv ill tell you a secret, and to who ever else craves this song as much as i did.. this isnt a spam bullshit letter what ever. Google video2mp3, the first ling is the right link. your life will change after this lol enjoy :)

[woodwanderer]

As for sheet music it does come with the cd if you buy it - however it's on about 10 pages each the size of a cd.... so it's difficult to read sometimes and isn't the most conductive to learning the piece.

If you have the sheet music - please put it online or something....

[TheoHebert7]

eyi am ready for some action any guys want to take the challenge?

[OEJuaN]

anybody sent me the sheet.

[girlsmasakatsu]

i have the sheet music

[emeeareM17]

could I have it?

[girlsmasakatsu]

yes, send a message with your email.

[maybeimcrazy18]

could you please email it to me if i gave you my email adress? thankyou

[Smallenface]

Do you think you could be awesome and send me it please? :):)

[girlsmasakatsu]

send a message with your email

[melaneyy]

disintegrating memories

[EniesLobby]

The way it's shot like a home video makes me feel both nostalgic and existentially depressed.

[DandelionsAndCheese]

This video couldn't be described in a better way.

[shadling21]

Gorgeous...

[DerrickthePinecone]

Is there any way that I could perhaps obtain this on dvd? Cd-r would even be fine!

I would love to own a copy of this.

[sstepko]

yeah they sell DVDs of his work. just do a search on Amazon.

[maybeimcrazy18]

Does anybody know where to get the sheet music for this, or want to send it to me because its just so beautiful

[daviddebonomalta]

yes, if anyone has the sheet music to this, please send it to me! I love this song!

[kotorodmm]

天才です

[NewbezLied]

ohhhh,,, not wat i expected

[mikess]

ah ok...i accept your identity

[mofukr]

haha wow your an idiot for saying something like that. people who reckon that something musically genius is considered "gay" need to have their lives reassessed. If your going to go around calling beautiful music "gay", i wander what shitty music you listen to.

[mofukr]

far from genius? Well what is genius in your opinion then and then we'll go by that?

Music that is "genius" makes you feel something, no frills, just music that makes you feel a certain emotion. Thats my opinion anyway, and emotion is something i dont find very often in western mainstream music

[failtoast]

I agree, but my ball is red.

[oishitomoro]

@mofukr take it as a compliment to the music. gay is a good thing :) who cares if they're trying to insult it, it just makes them look insecure, homophobic, and ignorant.

[shallwethen]

@mofukr it's wonder.... you meant wonder right...

[Czekou]

@mofukr Everyone has their opinions.

I do really hate when people call a certain type of music "gay" or "shitty."

You doing that doesn't make you better than him/her. Besides, it's their opinion, you shouldn't care.

[mofukr]

@Czekou I know everyone has their opinions....i was expressing my opinion of him. I never said that I was better than anyone else 0_0

[Czekou]

@mofukr

Well, sorry, I didn't really wrote that with the greatest context.

What I meant to say is, you called him an idiot because he said the song was gay, and then you said that he probably listens to shitty music. You just basically did what he did. Haha. But yeah, I didn't mean to say you thought you were better.

[lilclikkinbuttonz]

i felt the sugar

remember the spice

piano nicey nice echoes and strings to

I like your poem. Thank you Takagi

One Girl

[TheLuigiLife]

Amazing song! I love it

Makes me sad though because it reminds of my childhood that was stolen from me...

[ieatpeephole]

what?

[bravicimo]

in response of blessing 92. Who cares. Just appreciate the song.

[mistabogan]

would anyone by any chance have the sheet music for this?

[JESSICALEE1221]

beauty is in the eye of th e beholder

[Blessing92]

beatiful, just bought final cut studio new version, this video is just amazing!

[Kikaki79]

A highly artictic video! Loved it! ^_^

[Farcry437]

700th rating, guess what...rated 5 stars!!

[bizarremusician]

This stuff just made me cry. How is it called? Music? Yeah.

[IdyllicMinuet]

Beautiful. Pure musical genius.

[L390H36D]

Sick stuff man!!

[bravicimo]

So beautiful, childhood reminder. Tears of joy and sadness in the same time. Missing it.

[NarukaiRyu]

京都出身。最高！

[yako8823]

かっけー

[dogmac1983]

me too

[NarukaiRyu]

最高。

[moby6002]

Could someone send this song to me?

mobility6002 at yahoo

[annieyouok1]

if your using firefox, get the app that downloads media, you can download mp3 files straight from any video on you tube

[Animegurl06]

Everytime I hear this song I just wanna cry.

Its so beautiful. <3

[gokurakuchou]

me too

[Jnestsunshininflower]

everything about this is beautiful

[unlimitedgamer1]

Video is weird. but i like the song.

[boobmcnutt]

Neat song. I can't stand looking at the video though.

[SunWooz]

yeah the song is awesome, the video is awful

[Nightmar33333]

Well i like the video but to each there own i guess, but Takagi Masakatsu has a habit of breaking art down to its basic forum, and in this video i think that girl is his deceased sister so...

[SunWooz]

doesn't seem like it, a lot of different girls are represented. To me, the video just looks like fiddling with after effects.

[bravicimo]

i dont think this page from youtube needs any negative post

Je ne crois pas que cette section de youtube requiert quelque message negatif, quel quil soit. !

[weta2000nz]

i reckon you're right about that....

Je suis dans l'accord total avec vous, mon ami canadien

[mikess]

and your point is?? ur a genius? nyeeks

[Slayer100]

this is beautiful! Never heard Masakatsu before!

[rphinks]

I could see how this video might upset those afflicted with epillepsy

[eliotzeygarnik]

it's full of love

[mbuller11]

weird hippie shit.... but relaxing

[gplbc]

whenever i hear this song, i always picture somebody running, ..weird... but I LOVE this song :)

[kaiserschon]

Best Japanese Song Ever!!

[johnnyjohn911]

beautiful. blissful. really hits u in the spot..

[SunWooz]

wow this is awesome

[tkjp999]

if anyone learns this song perfectly please put a vid on Utube cos i cannot work it out!

cheers a bundle if anyone does

[OTAHearn]

I would say that its in 2/4 time with triplets giving a 6/8 feel or 4/4 time with triplets giving a 12/8 feel. At 4.00 it changes to regular straight timing. It also may have changed timing from compound to straight. Either way music isnt an exact science and this piece is beautiful!

[mariano26788]

este video es tan hermoso q me dejo absorto, tanto q si veo un arbol no voy a ponerme parar de reir

[semajkecyr]

wow i really like this. I want to get as good at playing as this. :D

[Pr0x1mo]

Is it me, or does this youtube version sound different from the cd version?

[musicluuvr]

amazing! ♥

[pianokapi]

so beutiful!

[missburn]

I absolutely love this.

[kaiserschon]

there are no words...

[Juanpimp01]

beautiful song...i cried the 1st time i heard it, not gonna lie

[xconner]

you're not alone.

[Zawadzke]

Anyone have the time signature on this?

[Bimkoblero]

It's 4/4 throughout. The odd syncopation makes it sound a little more complex than it actually is.

[Zawadzke]

thanks

[Zawadzke]

it really sounds like 3/4 though. hmm. well thanks again

[LastWordsFirst]

Just tap your finger. The melody restarts every 4 (or 8 or 12 or 16) beats

[JupiterAdept]

I would say 12/8, 123 123 123 123 and repeat.

So yes, the melody restarts every 12 beats.

That's what I hear, at least.

Very pretty video! I like the last chord.

[LastWordsFirst]

Yeah, I think you're right. Went back and tried to make it 4/4 and didn't work without really stretching the beats.

[lochreas]

12 eighth notes is what it means. 8 is for the eight note.

[xconner]

this song. is so. Incredible. Oh my.

[cyberpunk06]

Really really fantastic!

[arrogantchild]

lol, wtf?

[dwainbunker]

dude, kids read this... show some common sense..

[serena1232]

D: D:
