YUKIHIRO TAKAHASHI - SOMETHING IN THE AIR

[flandryx]

He's got such a great sound, it still feels as fresh as when I first heard this song back in late 80s. :)

[dixgun]

one of the best pv's ever. such a great song, too.

[SKOTP69]

Of three geniuses...my favourite YMO!

このアートデレクションハジメさんですよね！?



[yumeichban]

私自信、大変好きでした。ひさびさです。

[chrisnewcastle61]

a couple of year back I got hold of compilations of both New Musik and Naked Eyes. Not as good as original albums, but actually pretty reasonable.

People liking this Takahashi track should check the live "It's Gonna Work Out" vid, it's aces!

[chrisnewcastle61]

and Naked Eyes... same sort of brilliant pop music. Class act.

[srfm10064]

Drip Dry Eyes by the coutesy of he to SANDII.

[tankiu]

en una sola palabra: CAPORAL!!!!

[stereoloov]

Produced by Tony Mansfield,from New Musik.

[Maxiclaudi]

Wow, saves me a copy!

[TuscaniGT]

God I love this one! Thanks Takahashi!

[moodyb]

Brilliant! I loved Neuromantic when it came out, I haven't listened to this in ages.

Thanks for sharing!

[saustrabeck]

Yeah, Neuromantic was/is awesome!!!

[roygbiv330]

i like this.

[sephi1573]

This is cool. I'm actually a Yukihiro fan way before I discovered YMO and Ryuichi. Pretty weird, huh!

[vinto34]

got that brian ferry sounding voice... andy mackay and phil manzanera from roxy music helped him with the album this is from,called neuromantic so theres where the similarity comes in.Drip dry eyes is a great song off that album also.

[singinglawnchair]

Love this song, just heard this album about a week ago and I'm definitely a fan of Mr. Takahashi's work.

As my sister puts it, he's like if David Bowie and the singer from Dire Straits were Japanese. =)

[fonzithornton]

Cover of "It's All Too Much" was on the brilliant "What Me Worry" LP.

[TAfTfilms]

He is like the Japanese Sting. This video is incredibly cool!

[Maxiclaudi]

Ah, but Steve Jansen was the best copied version! They played together on numerous albums and tours, and if you concede, Steve is much better looking, has a better physique and even a better voice than Yukisan!

[MUSICOBLISS]

Brilliant Artist !

[bishop42962]

I've never heard of Yukihiro Takahashi before but I know of Phil Manzanera, Tony Mansfield, and Ryuichi Sakamoto. How could I have not heard this or of Mr. Takahashi back in the 80's? This is great! I listened to the other stuff posted here and it's just as good

[earthacademy]

you did. He was a 3rd of YMO (yellow magic orchestra) :-P

We've all heard "firecracker" in the west, as it appears in various things. Or "Behind the Mask" (Eric Clapton/Michael Jackson)

[Zzz80]

Lovely

[fac6]

Thanks for uploading it!

[Stompy92]

japanese new wave is awesome!

[betweentides]

Thank you for posting this, Neuromantic is my favourite Y.T. album!

[xxxCheeryCherryxxx]

I have never really listened to Mr. Takahashi, but I really like this song. The video is very interesting.

[moodyb]

Thanks for posting! This brings back fond memories...

...It's been years since I've listened to Neuromantic, I think I'll go dig it out!

[garantj]

*beautiful

[RageInEden]

Awesome. Big Takahashi fan here, but had never seen this. But to nitpick, the name of the album is "Neuromantic".

[homegirrl]

Thanks so much for this

[RodBarnes]

I wish to correct myself; This was on Time and Place, but was also on the album "what me worry?", not New Romantic as I stated previously. my bad-memory.

[RodBarnes]

I remember first hearing the live version album (Time and Place: this was from a concert at the Budokan- had Hajime Tachibana on guitar, David Palmer on Drums- very rockin' album! He also did a nice version of Burt Bacharach's The April Fools and on New Romantic, he did a great cover of the Beatles' All too Much.

[Syntpop]

Thanks for adding!

Incorrect..Mr Takahashis LP vinyl is called "Neuromantic"..and it has no cover of All to much..not on my vinyl

[amihuit]

This is the one I've been looking for over years. Many Thanks!!

[dixgun]

memories are flooding. never saw this video b4.

[garantj]

me too. what a bizarre & beatiful video.

[Wartez]

love this song
