Thanks! Think I saw Manu Katche on drums.

[FataVerde055]

intense! thank you moodyb

[23sugarcane]

I've watched this video so many times!!! Thanks a million moodyb. I fell in love with this song since it came out and got the album. Do you know if this video is available on any of Sakamoto's DVDs release? I'll be really thankful if anyone could tell me.

I was fortunate to meet RS around 02, at an $8.00 show at the TLA in Phila. PA. I asked some guy out front if I could get an autograph and when he went to get me one I just followed behind him, through the theatre check points, like staff. We went upstairs and stood at the top of the stairs and down the hall in a room was RS talking to friends. He came down the hall and gave me an autograph and we spoke. he was very reverent, bowed respectfully and we shook hands. An A+++ honour for me. :-)

[LONGLOTTfilms]

And the darkness sleeps

Cushioning the heartbeat

[moodyb]

The original version can be found on Sakamoto's 'Heartbeat' album...

[karimcheese]

How old is this footage. Sakamoto-san is really young!

[urbancasbah]

I think probably 91-92.

[KamikaziNuWave]

SHEER PERFECTION

[atrios28]

坂本龍一が好きな私は日本語を尊重する唯一の欧米のロックデビッ­ドシルビウスとイングリッドチャベス大統領のような方が好きだ。­私たちは"スケッチショー"は、デジタルアート-大の音楽、 lightshow 、コンピュータとアナログ演奏バンド！

[atrios28]

Sakamoto Ryuichi I love but most Japanese respect only prefer Western Rock like David Sylvian and Ingird Chavez. We have band "SKETCH SHOW" that performed no music, lightshow & ART - Great!

[jobrini7]

whoo, ah masters...

[shum65]

Great live version of this beautiful song!!!

Thanks to you ghost. for sending this to me- mate!!

[karimnn]

I honestly don't like this song. This isn't the Ryuichi Sakamoto I know.

[R1chNFam0us]

Sakamoto is gorgeous.

[bemyart90]

David Sylvian also!!! They are made for each other... lol...

[ibuiltashed]

excellent, if only there was more "official" live product of David.

[05rachy]

Have never seen Sylvian look so 'alive' .........and of course the voice is above all else lovely ...Sakamoto he s so great...saw him in London o many years ago..a very different concert...so entertaining even tho his voice is I think quite weak

[gaslett]

The journey from heartbeat to blemish is over now for Sylvian. I feel he will come out of his introspective stage and suprise us all with something very much more accessable and commercial very soon. not that i don't like his music, i love it. just I feel that his message to the world needs a more commercial production to convey to the masses.

[ConnieXX]

do you think that is the direction he will take? even though he plays old stuff we all want to hear on the tour, i wouldn't say he seems too interested in pleasing the masses...

[gaslett]

I think in the end it may be inevitable for Sylvian. For years he has stuck to his principals. However he does not sell now. In order for him to carry on doing what he wants to do (i.e. artistic direction) he may have to do a Japan album and tour to make some $.

[thefaithyouprove]

I have to disagree. I think he's become less and less commercial over the years, though the music is amazing (remember, Britney is commercial). Yes, he has stuck to his principles, and I'm curious why you think that will change. People get more set in their ways as they get older, and I suspect when he needs a bit of cash, he'll do a commercial or something but leave his core music as true to himself as ever. Just my guess.

[MisAnnThorpe]

@gaslett Take it you weren't expecting Manafon then?!

[whelanttt]

@MisAnnThorpe (Manafon)...in all it's dreaful mediocrity, think Sylvian needs the foil and lightness of Sakamoto to stop him sinking in his own melancholy and losing creative direction aka Manafon

[Suchiibenchan]

Sakamoto and Sylvian.

Does anyone need to say anymore?

Amen.

[FamilySnapshot]

"but if he is wearing that shirt in copenhagen in september i will have to wear shades." well, if that's how you speak when you're serious i can already imagine how you sound when you try to be funny. anyway, don't bother, just a thought, have a cool gig in copenhagen.

[ConnieXX]

i really can't see why you should be concerned about what i'm like when i try to be funny. but obviously, david sylvian can wear whatever he likes. all that matters is that he brings a guitar and that little choir of angels that seems to be living in his larynx.

[FamilySnapshot]

exactly, that's how i like it, "a guitar and that little choir of angels that seems to be living in his larynx.", beautiful thoughts :)

[ConnieXX]

great man, but if he is wearing that shirt in copenhagen in september i will have to wear shades.

[FamilySnapshot]

that wasn't funny.

in regards of this performance.. i was absolutely stunned. i've never heard this song before, i don't have an idea why i've chosen it to watch but man, this is brilliant. everything sounds so harmonized. plus each of the awesome great musicians put their own, from katche's drums to the sylvian voice that makes you wanna melt. yeah, heartbeat..

[ConnieXX]

that great cause it wasn't supposed to be funny.

[citic101]

This is one super brilliant song , great beat , great voice NO an amazing voice

[LickMyLips]

One of my favorite songs of all time. Sylvian killed the Captain and sank the fleet to liberate the Heartbeat.

[bluenose40]

put sylvians voice to any piece of music and it will sound good.

[Echdrum]

Manu Katche` on drums. bass player messed up a tiny bit in the beginning- needed the solo to cover it- i liked all of this except for the male 'singer' near the end 'talking out' the great Sylvian lyrics.

[bj70117]

Not one of my favorite songs, but the fact that part of YMO is in the band along with Sylvian makes it worthwhile.
