[ShiNyuKi] Jrock/VK - Yoko Kanno - Kiseki no umi

[Teodoki]

1001.

Wonderfull song. =)

[videogamekiller3]

i think what people percive as weird from japan or anime like is when artist take old fudal japan styles of theater and plays. and take costumes spice them up with their style and the styles of today with their music to blend in with it. so you wouldnt be suprized to see a emo looking charecter in final fantasy or a punk rocker that likes to fight etc

[FeeDBacKMKII]

this song is from Records of Lordoss war

[12345678909269]

[HidansCewkie]

@LloydChristmas777 I'm a girl, and I was basing it off of the majority. I don't use labels. Thanks. ._.

[talitarba]

@LloydChristmas777 THEY ARE NOT !- the style they're wear called 'Harajuku' , japanese style in fashion , that agrees them wear exactly what they want , well- almost, but they are not on the 'dark side' or something like that

[LloydChristmas777]

@talitarba, I was only kidding.

[Revan09]

[locker987]

KAWAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

[Ryuk84]

Why do all the guys look like ugly women?

[MrReaperInc]

@Ryuk84 Cuz you're not used to guys with straightened hair and make-up?

[Ryuk84]

@MrReaperInc lol, no... I guess I am tired of men being feminized.

[kakouma10]

@Ryuk84 make-up and clothes won't make a guy feminine ! it's the way he act that makes him look like a girl

there are many boys who don't put make-up and wear manly clothes but still look like girls cause of their behavior ...

[tib1234ify]

beautiful song

I feel shaking inside my body

[xXxCookieCoryxXx]

@YamiToMatto Hyde - Secret Letters

[senhuan]

This isn't j-rock you retards, it's a ballad. WTF is up with the video compilations? Apart form being Japanese, it has zero to do with anything.

[ProfessorDemetri]

@senhuan

The artists that are featured, meaning the ones you see, are j-rock artists.

"LOOK MA'! I'M ON THE INTERWEBS!!"

Gackt in the video makes me laugh. Every time I see his name I think of the sound my mothers cat sounded like when it puked up a hair ball XD

[alanta4ever]

waaw. so... beautiful. don't have other words...

[batmanpronz]

How have I never heard this before? Also, STFU. With a few notable exceptions, american music sucks throbbing donkey cock.

[TheMultitude]

You guys gotta be kidding me right!? The song is sung by Maaya Sakamoto, was composed by the infamous Yoko Kanno. The montage includes cameos from awesome J-rock artists. This video introduced me to music I would have otherwise never been exposed to. Thank you Yuki02 for making this happen!

[xXGazeZombieXx]

I discovered this video by accident about 4 years ago and fell in love with great and beautiful music, I love jrock/vk... thank you <333 ;___;

[mirandy2007]

@xXGazeZombieXx ok what you said.. that just happened to me... on accident. i'm like " WHY IN THE SHIT HAVE I NOT HEARD THIS BEFORE?" i am SO SICK OF THE SHIT ON THE RADIO!!!! these people ROCK all kinds of ASS!! even their haircuts are SICK!!!

[Yozaro]

@xXGazeZombieXx Same here. This was the first Japanese song I heard and I wasn't even looking for one. After listening to this I went through all these artists and now I have been listening to them for 3 or 4 years ^^

[InsonsInsontis]

@roosjuh198s

oh thank you so much!!

[sohma26]

ME PODRIAS DECIR PORFA EL NOMBRE DE TODAS ESTAS BANDAS VISUAL...ES QUE SE VEN INCREIBLES n_n *_* XD¡¡¡¡¡

[InsonsInsontis]

@yuki02

I'm trying to figure out which band is the one with the one guy and the other like background singers at 2:07 and i'm finding it HILARIOUSLY difficult to figure out, even with the list provided. Can you put the times next to the names or something? or in the video?

[roosjuh1986]

@InsonsInsontis

Rain (Sad tango) ^^

[KanamaruRush]

God, their so...pretty! I'm jealous! I wish I was that pretty >.<

[mattxrennick1]

Breaking the Waves,,, i love it...

[Manganimeartist]

visual Kei's...weird......only D-techno life I like...

[0s0matsu]

fuck

[maffiacat]

>_> I think, after reading some comments, it is also that... A lot of "American" music, comes from Africa, wao :O International music traveling, how awesome, now just go and listen to the music, and spout nonsense about: how this came from there and that came from here... somewhere else? :D Like... not here? Seriously, what drives someone to spout such nonsense, after watching this video? >_> Don't even think about answering this reaction, it hardly interests me.

[KyukyoukuTuffy]

Alice Nine is my favorite JRock band.

[sikmade100]

the comment section was ment for the music not for the bull shit. and by the way i like what u r doing yoko dont go no where keep it up thx for your heart felt songs

[Lilaznsal]

(i agree with boomdadrf) Especially anime its the best!

[loquy333]

los estadounidenses son muy incultos..

[xXxCookieCoryxXx]

This is probably the 8th time i've listened to this lol. I truly love it. You know wat, screw america me and my friend are moving to Japan cuz we would love it there. The language is beautiful , the people a beautiful and it's just amazing. America is just too much disrespect and it's hard to explain.

[DIIELAST69]

i agree they are sooo creative even if they look total ridiculous sometimes i still adore them when something looks soooo horrible they know how to change the horrible to awesome and i envy them even though American is shit now anything that we american's upgrade it becomes shit on somethings but not everything.

but it dosn't mean that their perfect though but still awesome.

[xXxCookieCoryxXx]

This song is absolutely the most beautiful song in Japanese that I have ever heard. Truly the language and culture of Japanese is amazing. I have listened to this song like 6 times in a row.

[MacaroniLololol]

Jazz originated in America, which has to count for something, right?

This sounds like Native American music. This sounds great.

[rani6192008]

Japanese rule

[xXxCookieCoryxXx]

@rani6192008 F**k yeah! lol im with u on that one.

[AIonCciTo]

feo

[Ondrix]

@mynameisdianaamaya Ever heard of grammar? He may be ugly.... but your stupid.

[Ondrix]

@mynameisdianaamaya Go ahead and use your horrendous grammar. It's no wonder most countries think all americans are stupid. With people like you to prove them right why would they think any differently?

[mowhawkdude]

I'm saying the the only good american stuff is like the band "tool" and otherwise all my stuff is jrock 2

[marymroe]

They understand harmony. I'm afraid Americans are creating music as noisy as a New York street.

[mowhawkdude]

only good american stuff is tool, otherwise the rest of my stuff is like jrock and shit and some mixed american music stuff

[europeafrika]

@mowhawkdude You are totally wrong. Nowadays american music is not so good. It also has really good stuff but like many other countries. Songs you don't understand may sound bad to you but this doesn't mean they're bad staff. In my opinion U.S.A. has never been the most important country for good music but it's the most important for the world market! I have to admit the most important country in the last century was the United Kingdom. Never forget that singing in English gives you advantage

[mowhawkdude]

@europeafrika what am I totally wrong about, I think you missunderstood what the fuck I said. poof :p

[europeafrika]

@mowhawkdude probably I missunderstood your sentence. What do you wanted to say?

[xXSessyXx]

I just recently started really listening to j-rock, can someone please tell who that is 0:23 ??

[Cesariono]

@xXSessyXx Clearly, someone never bothered to read the description.

[ohemgefatality]

@mysticalwheel I doubt it there genetics aren't dominant enough to make the whole world asian even though they have a big enough population to do so

[mynameisdianaamaya]

i love their eyes

[alexavkool17]

They are all so much more creative and interesting that american shit.

[Tony2826]

@alexavkool17 Did someone say "weeaboo?"

[alexavkool17]

@Tony2826 k?

[xxadverbxx]

@alexavkool17 Actually, the Japanese aren't in a sense creative. They are great at taking things we create and making them better, but they've really had a bad track record on actually creating new things themselves. Right now Japan is trying to figure out how to push creativity in their schools to alleviate this problem.

[Ln192]

@alexavkool17

Holy shit, you MUST be 12.

Most ignorant statement ever.

[alexavkool17]

@Ln192 You must have no life, get one! I did

[Ln192]

@alexavkool17

Thanks for confirming my earlier statement.

[Behemoth2334]

@alexavkool17

I haven't seen anything creative nor interesting come out of the UK either.

[Jarydashcroft]

@alexavkool17 actually, I can tell you right now this is a japanese version of a rather rehashed (but still awesome song) created by adiemus just go check this /watch?v=UX__4aHwYzM&feature=r­elated out.

[Jarydashcroft]

@Jarydashcroft or search for Adiemus - Karl Jenkins 

[jjpimp23]

@alexavkool17 um The Mars Volta, Veil of Maya, And Dance Gavin Dance Are More Creative And Interesting Then This And They Are American. Im not Saying This Isn't Great But There's Alot Of American Bands You Have To Listen To Before You Think Its All Shit.

[alexavkool17]

@jjpimp23 In your opinion...and dance gavin dance sucks, Ive seen them in concert.

[patrick10001]

@alexavkool17 Most western media entertainment is greased with American crap lol.

[1444444444]

@alexavkool17 fuck you, americans rock

[rutgerius1]

@1444444444 fuck you, the british rock harder! They lost their teeth due to the fact they rock so hard it breaks teeth, so yeah... there you have it.... british rock!

[alexavkool17]

@1444444444 Oh Im so affended, get a life.

[Rekin4000]

@alexavkool17 There is creativity in every country you ignorant fool.

[Rekin4000]

@alexavkool17 There is creativity in every country you ignorant fool. My respect to Yoko Kanno.

[alexavkool17]

@Rekin4000 then why do i have so many thumbs up for my coment? you ignorant fool!! GET A LIFE

[Rekin4000]

@alexavkool17 You have so many thumbs up cause the internet is full of kids like you dreaming about becoming emos japanese anime characters. Asian lover.

[kakairuislove]

@Rekin4000 no she or he has so many thumbs up because america is incapable of producing anything without X amount of guys dancing and singing retarted shit while surrownded by girls cars and money

[Joker365]

@kakairuislove doesn't that describe most of the pop/r&b/rap industry though? regardless of country?

[alexavkool17]

@Rekin4000 Haha woooow you obvously have no life, so get one. you people need to stop wasting your time.

[AhhhDree]

[00Naruto0]

This song is so beautifull that hearing this,while having your eyes closed and thinking about peacefull things and your life will give you a strange yet pleasant feeling.

[Clarissa4o9]

What is the band at 1:48 I lost track on the list :)

[Lisbeth0013]

[Reddoorify]

@Lisbeth0013

[ParisFenix]

[cherrycrissycris]

0:23 = love... so sexy

[shadylemon]

they r so unique and beautiful.....i want one :3 <3

[LatinaVampire0231]

i would give up anything to have asian hair!!!

i wish i was japanese ToT

[drap13]

Esta melodía es espectacular, digna de escuchar.

[boomdadrf]

the japanese are the best

[the13igworm]

@boomdadrf FUCK YOU!! USA USA USA!!!

[kakairuislove]

@the13igworm idiot 

[the13igworm]

@kakairuislove Keep it in the internment camp, buddy.

[kakairuislove]

@the13igworm internment ... war camp? lol i really dont understand ur sentence oh well

[the13igworm]

@kakairuislove English not your first language? Are you retarded because you seem to realize what an interment camp is, but you can't put 1 and 1 together...

[kakairuislove]

@the13igworm English is not my best language no but thinking about it though i get it and you for so much as suggesting that i am in a containment camp makes you no better than the people who really do put people in the camps face it Japan beats America in just about everything

[the13igworm]

@kakairuislove Is it safe to assume you're Japanese? I don't have to wonder how stupid you are if you think joking about an interment camp is the same as forcing a race/group of people out of their homes to live in makeshift shanty towns under fascist supervision, but the only thing Japan beats American in is pornography.

[kakairuislove]

@the13igwo yes it it and things like that should not be joked about its horrible that would be like me saying "im going to go hang a bunch og n#gers" and laughing about it and not only do we beat you in porn dont forget japan is proven to have less obese people and higher testing grades in highschool students and money management i mean America does owe us alot of money

[the13igworm]

@kakairuislove Joking about an action and doing an action are completely different things. Maybe if the Japanese had more obese people and less pressure concerning school the suicide rate wouldn't be so high and the birth rate wouldn't be so low. America owes the Chinese money, anything the US owes to Japan will be paid off after we go to war with North Korea.

[the13igworm]

@kakairuislove Ok this is boring now. My original comment was directed at boomdadrf, whom I'm sure is some American faggot who doesn't even understand Japanese but said they "are the best". I'll just say this though, Yoko Kanno is my favorite musical composer.

[InARealPickle]

@the13igworm

13igworm... please stop acting like a moron. You're making all of us look bad when you bring nationality into it. At any rate, I would bet any amount of money that KakaIru is an American female obsessed with Naruto and Yaoi. Don't let her rile you up. It makes you both look stupid.

No one else would type the N word and leave out the i, except a duplicitous liberal American. Also her speech patterns are that of a native speaker, not an ESL student.

[the13igworm]

@InARealPickle Obviously kakairuislove is a idiot as I said. Failing to "@" me is only a small part the part that picture, and censoring the word nigger doesn't mean shit. If you had taken to time to read my comments in context, you'd realized that I only commented to someone who referred to the Japanese as "being the best" any red blooded American should have something to say about that. Especially considering that a lot of their musical culture is based off American influence. USA USA USA!

[loquy333]

@the13igworm pff the people in the USA are very silly..

[the13igworm]

@loquy333 How so? Are you Japanese?

[marilynmanson60]

@boomdadrf

i agree with you 100%!

[Ninja4one]

I would give up my left nut to have Asian hair

[xXxstarblitzxXx]

@Ninja4one ouch 0.o

[baconskull]

That's one hell of a hairdo...

[TidusAbes]

Those hairs are made of PURE AWESOMENESS!
