my mother's old music box plays this song, but it's broken and only plays when i slam my dresser drawers. but whenever it does i stop and listen until it ends
@themuffintreekills --- It's not a 'song'. Why do people call musical pieces 'songs'? You sing songs. This has no words. ergo it cannot be sung, and therefore is not a 'song'.
This and "Love is Blue" came out around the same time. Both made it to the top of the Top Forty. Imagine that happening in todays music. Both are beautiful and both touch the heart.
First off, this song is amazing... the thing that really blows my mind is the way he sort of teases with the piano in the beginning with simple hesitations before moving on to the next note. Those little hesitations are priceless in the song, and say so much. The guy was a genius, pure genius.
I would like this song if the guys in my english class hadn't sung it 20 million times out of tune and if it didn't play ALL THE FREAKING TIME during the movie. But other than that it's nice.
I appreciate to your having explained your own comment in detail.
I think we Japanese are so hard to understand the irony that is used in your country and it is a major difference of the language culture of each other's countries.
there is something about this music which seems timeless and fantastic and immortal. thank you for the posting, glad to know I am not the only fan!! makes me feel alive every time I hear it!
TenStarsplus!!! Thank you 60otaku3 san from the bottom of my humble heart!!! This is one of my all time favorites !!! I love almost all music genres, except " rap " !!!! Now if you could please post one of my favorite Japanese instrumental songs, "Mt. Fuji"!!!! Your taste in music is fantabulous!!!! A humble bow of respect, from me to you, from here in the U.S.A.!!!!!
Hello Otaku-san, I hope this finds you well and happy as you have made so many of us with your timeless selections...with a bow of respect, i bid you domo arigato :)
60otaku3,it thrills me to know that the Japanese(I just love them!)are as fascinated by our forms of entertainment,be it music or otherwise,as we are of yours(I enjoy watching Godzilla,Gamera,Ultraman,Sailor Moon,Inuyasha,etc).That's helped our cultures become close,which is a wonderful thing.Hope you like even more of our pop culture from my country as I do from yours!
I absolutely love this type & style of music...Bravo!
