Very nice video! I've been a fan of this beautiful song since I first heard it on a school trip to Indiana Dunes summer of '63. Not much has stayed with my life so long and I enjoy it till this day. TKU!
The reason it was tagged as "Sukiyaki song" is because of it's success and the Americans difficulty with pronouncing the Japanese title. Only foreign language song to ever reach # 1 in the U.S. 1963. "I look up when I walk" so my tears won't fall.
The real name of the song (translating Ue O Muite Arukou from Japanese) is "I Look Up When I Walk". I believe nowhere on original Japanese pressings of the single was to be found the word "Sukiyaki" (a beef dish), and nothing in the Japanese lyrics suggests anything to do with food
2:00 what place was that? i went there but i can't remember the name :( anyways loved the video and I'm not sure why i love this song so much but it's so soothing you just have to love it! ahh i wish i could go back to Japan soon
for me, Japan is a magical place, it's a shame that others do not think so, too, because they are so clumsy that the confused with the Chinese and Koreans that stupid, but in the end everything east is beautiful, filled with where is the sun seems it dies and is born every day, but Japan is my dream for me my biggest fantasy and wait to be there just one day.
when i was a kid my best friend and I rode our bikes to the record store. You could buy a single for a dollar. I bought "go away little girl" by andy williams. He bought this. the year? 1964. He died in about 1991. thanks.
OMG...This is so beautiful when they get out of the city. Hello to our Japanese friends from Illinois, USA. Your country is really lovely AND your work ethics are so much better than ours is now. I hope to say hello in person some day. Peace!
Thank you. I have fond memories too!! It is a beautiful land with beautiful people. I want to go back. I've never lived anywhere so lovely and with such warmth.
Peace to our Japanese friends. I'm so sorry your country was devistated by tsunami. This video shows your beautiful country and people. I want to visit it one day. Love this song from way back. God bless.
I love this video it a good look into Japanese every day life, especially the 6 yr old dressed to the 9s and she cuts one (so it looks). The more things are diffident the more they are the same.
@ChuChu353 Did you even know that Japanese people hate you? They hate you so much so there it's not even word for it.Like you covard way of using new clear weapons during the world war it's unforgiven.
@Dan90iel1 I have no personal control over something that happened 20 years before I was born. I cannot change the past, I can only influence the future.
as a yound boy i would sit on the side verandah and watch the sheep grazing and listen to this very beautiful love song on the radio. used to whistle it on the school bus too. i still enjoy listening to song on my ipod. song was very popular in aussie
I have an 33 1/3 album in my collection, the sound track from the movie "Mondo Cane." This song is on it and it was the first time I ever heard it. (Sometime in the early sixties). Believe I wore that track out
Our prayers are with you all, our friends, you were blessed with such a beautiful country. You will rise above all the devastation as the rising sun on your flag!

thanks for posting this song it toke me about 20 year to find it .i never know the name or the song name. i remember when my dad was listing to the radio on k-earth. it bring me alots of memory with my dad.
A great song ! Brings back some memories. It made it to the American Billboard Hot 100 Chart in 1963. I think it was the only Japanese-language song to do that. Thanks

Hi - tx so much for this wonderful song and video!!! I listened/saw it at least 10x already...it's such a wonderfully cheerful song/video - love it! All my best wishes to the Japanese people in this time of trial...
Im 37 I remember this song on a forty-five my Dad had when I was a kid. Recently I found this song in a music book and learned to play it on the keyboard. It i s such an beautiful song. God Bless Japan!
I always loved this song. I was so sad when I learned what the words meant that it made me cry. "I look up when I walk, So the tears wont fall, Remembering those happy spring days, But tonight I'm all alone........"
@bryan760 Regarding the earthquake and tsunami, a woman asked "what did we do to deserve this" and it broke my heart. Nobody deserved that, and may God give the people of Japan the strength to deal with this unimaginable disaster.
@RetSquid as terrible as it was to use those weapons it did save countless lives on both sides the U.S. was winning. the closer they got to the Japanese home land the more intense and fearsome the fighting became. the collective pride of the Japanese people would have caused them to fight to the last man, woman and child. The loses would have been over whelming. side note Japan had its own nuclear program at the time MM1(ss)RT
@sixpackokc1 Bless?,why would you even bless Japann? so much shit you did during the world war its unforgiven.Only the asians is one,and never a part of your country.

QUE CANCIÓN MAS BELLA , YO LA RECUERDO DE NIÑA,ME GUSTA EL CANTANTE, TAN MELODIOSO, UN GRAN ABRAZO AL PUEBLO JAPONES POR LA TRAGEDIA DEL DÍA 11 DE MARZO , DESDE CHILE UN ABRAZO FRATERNO , POR ESTE MOMENTO TAN TERRIBLE, DE TANTO DOLOR , PERDIDAS HUMANAS, QUE DIOS LOS AYUDE
Since 1963 I have loved this song, and I enjoyed it every time that I hear it. Beautiful words, wonderful music. I wish there were more songs popular oversea from Kiu Sakamoto.
For some reason I thought this was a "western" song. ("Western" as in cowboys and indians - the "Wild West" - not "Western" as in the geopolitical term.)
Weird. I woke up a few mornings ago and the tune was stuck in my head. No idea why! I'm 48 years old and it must have just been swimming in my subconscious until something I don't recall triggered it.
Anyway... I tried to track down the song, but had no idea of the name; certainly didn't connect it to Japan.

@LEONIAPOTTER96310 Why do we get naseous when we see the old cocker with pores on his nose larger than the Grand Canyon,bad breath,stooped shoulders,shuffling,teary eyes? Most often its because we know damn well its going to be our future if we live that long,or worse,if your kids kick you out and you're ugly,decrepit AND homeless. Don't get disgusted,try smiling at one poor slob inside that shell.
@zzzippo55 An individual as yourself could do 2 things:Look around & ,yes,its always getting coarser,grubbier,or say "Just because the world allows what was once known to be social sabotage doesn't mean I have to jump into the same cesspool". Make a change,take a stand each person can love others since we all share a similar soul.Give time to old people,our children,teenagers especially. All we can expect is to clean up our little corner in this time & space we have.
I remember this when I was a little kid and always loved it. Years later when I began to play piano very well I ordered the sheet music. I still have it and love it more today than I did 40 yrs ago. Thanks for posting.

I've loved this song since I was eight years old! But I always thought the lyrics were happy in love till I read the translation! Doesn't matter..I still love it. And the video is incredible. What a beautiful country. This is by far the best Youtube video I've ever come across. Thanks for posting!
GREAT video,jimmcgee,lots of smiling/happy faces.Thanks for the words i never knew, i remember this song in the 63.... RIP MR.KYU SAKAMOTO.Great song.

I look up when i walk so the tears won't fall remembering those happy spring days
but tonight i'm all alone.
I look up when i walk counting the stars with tearful eyes remembering those happy summer days but tonight i'm all alone
Happiness lies beyond the clouds happiness lies above the sky
I look up when i walk so the tears won't fall though my heart is filled with sorrow
for tonight i'm all alone
Remembering those happy autumn days but tonight i'm all alone

@LEONIAPOTTER96310 Why do we get naseous when we see the old cocker with pores on his nose larger than the Grand Canyon,bad breath,stooped shoulders,shuffling,teary eyes? Most often its because we know damn well its going to be our future if we live that long,or worse,if your kids kick you out and you're ugly,decrepit AND homeless. Don't get disgusted,try smiling at one poor slob inside that shell.

@zzzippo55 An individual as yourself could do 2 things:Look around & ,yes,its always getting coarser,grubbier,or say "Just because the world allows what was once known to be social sabotage doesn't mean I have to jump into the same cesspool". Make a change,take a stand each person can love others since we all share a similar soul.Give time to old people,our children,teenagers especially. All we can expect is to clean up our little corner in this time & space we have.

I remember this when I was a little kid and always loved it. Years later when I began to play piano very well I ordered the sheet music. I still have it and love it more today than I did 40 yrs ago. Thanks for posting.

I've loved this song since I was eight years old! But I always thought the lyrics were happy in love till I read the translation! Doesn't matter..I still love it. And the video is incredible. What a beautiful country. This is by far the best Youtube video I've ever come across. Thanks for posting!

As I remember, this song hit the number one spot on charts in United States at June 15th 1963 and stayed there for 3 weeks performed by Kyu Sakamoto.

@Fire4FX That is a festival in Hiratsuka. My co-worker shot those scenes but I believe it's a water festival in Hiratsuka.
