Cecilio and Kapono - Sukiyaki

[josephuus]

Love the rendition...thanks !

[chewy1615]

I like the Hawaiian take.... brings me back to the island days...

[kane1er]

The song is sang right the title of the song isn't. this song is titled "Hawaiian sukiyaki" C and K rewrote this song to the same melody of Sukiyaki not that it matters still a great song Enjoy relax it's all music!

[Otokichi786]

Cecilio & LKapono's version of "Ue o Muite Aruko" can be found on "Summerlust" (1992). Originally produced for the Japanese market, it escaped to the world and can be found at Amazon.com.

[whydoicare70]

上を向いて歩こう ue o muite arukō ([I] shall walk looking up)

涙がこぼれないように namida ga kobore nai yō ni (so [my] tears won't fall)

思い出す春の日 omoidasu haru no hi (remembering spring days)

一人ぼっちの夜 hitori bocchi no yoru ([on this] lonely night)

Thank you !

@ukulele911 if the words are wrong, then why not post the CORRECT WORDS. IF you are basing the words off a Taste of Honey, then the words are different. When a Taste of Honey did their version, they translated the words differently. From what I know of Japanese, and from what my family who speaks Japanese, says these are the correct words.

[ukulele911]

THE WORDS IS NOT SUKIYAKI ONLY THE MELODY IS CORRECT..

WORDS 100% WRONG.......

[ClandestineSnowman]

@ukulele911 Actually this is probably the most accurate translation of the original song by Kyo Sakamoto.

[noytay]

Very nice. I do prefer the original, but this is very good.

[maartensummer]

@noytay Ik kan niks anders zeggen dan dat ik het er helemaal eens mee ben!!

[ronmainemarine]

[jcrobso]

Thank you, a better translation than A Taste of Honey.

In 1963 we all fell in love with this song even though we didn't understand the words.

[rlawton002]

big daddy's version is better

[Qtrademark]

I just saw C & K in San Francisco last month at Yoshi's. I didn't know they did a version of this song. The words are completely different from Taste of Honey's but maybe it's close to the original Japanese version. Either way it is awesome! Mahalo for posting!

[terriesales]

THis guys were awesome in my days. Been so long since I heard them. Awesome.

[BlueMagicNol]

great!!! bravo!!! genial!!! 太棒了!!!

I like this version.

[Nefarioso]

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

[mediadude4God]

My mom had this version on 33(LP), but I can't find it anymore. Thanks for posting.

[Qtrademark]

Wow, I never heard this version from C & K. Mahalo for posting.
