美空ひばり MISORA HIBARI - 悲しい酒 KANASHII SAKE

[kaisermuto]

Drinking alone, it tastes tear of separation. This song tells.

[ferrazito]

What a beautiful cry !

[ynjlky7121]

The ULTIMATE Enka performance by Japan's greatest female singer. Those who fooled with "Japanese" songs such as The Vapors'  "Turning Japanese" and Aneka's "Japanese Boy" SHOULD see this video.

[aijarco]

Me encanta

[TheJasmine200]

donataka UTAIRI KANNOKYO o omochidesuka?

yoroshiku.

[robibm2003]

Her performance of this song is one of the best ever in the history of recorded music anywhere. It's like Billie Holiday doing enka. Misora-san was truly a once in a century talent.

[oceanographer60]

This song is five parts beauty and five parts tears. It projects sadness, loneliness, and regret. What a superb singer Misora was, unmatched.

[joyceycful]

She sings with her heart! This song is just heart breaking.

[mcknighty11]

What singer brings themselves to tears when singing now days? Noone! We need singers who sing with heart and soul as Misora did!

[leo9Hawk]

Hibari-san was a talented film actress in her younger days, and her singing style is always, for me, "cinematic."

She stood out for me because of her ability to project so much more than just the song itself; she had that rare ability to make each song become something like a short -- and extremely touching -- "film." I'm not talking about the videography, but rather, her delivery and stylization.

imho.

[Lortagreb]

Wouldn't "story" be a more appropriate word?

[FLL999]

Misora Hibari certainly is the greatest singer the world has ever seen! We love her and miss her. We were lucky to have her in this world for a relatively short time. But she gave us many gifts while she was here. She gave us joy, and sometimes made us feel sad, but a wonderful sadness nevertheless.

[chriistophercraves]

This song seems to just pour out the emotion of Misora. even without understand it you can hear the pain in her words. That's music.

[regale785]

her music knows no language. It just communicates through the heart.

[bjeffery08]

YES,YES,YES.Her music communicates through the heart.I couldn't have said it better myself.

[mikkonoss]

Misora Hibari llega al alma, y Kanashii sake, (sake triste)... tambien, aunque solo entienda palabras sueltas...

[maricarmen666]

El sake que bebo sola en la sakabe tiene el sabor a las lagrimas de la separacion. EL recuerdo que quiero deshechar vuelve a llenar la copa mientras bebo.

[insaneleo84]

Ahora entiendo. Qué emoción. Es toda una experiencia verla cantar este tema. No sólo su talento para interpretar un tema tan triste, sino toda su expresión, incluidas las lágrimas... una verdadera artista :D

[insaneleo84]

Ah! por cierto, gracias por la explicación :D

[iluvenka]

sound very sad,but I am sad that I do not understand!!!

[maricarmen666]

In a way, she is complaining to sake, why if she is drinking to forget, sake makes her even sadder and that sake has the test of tears. She says that the heart that once said she was better alone, now cries.

[iluvenka]

Thanks maricarmen6666.
