yeah it's amazing and a bit strange how close jansen & sylvian's vocal styles are.. maybe it's a pity that all japan members eventually ended up in the shade of david sylvian's persona and much acclaimed solo career.. i say maybe because it's difficult to judge as sylvian's solo works after japan are very very good, which i can't say about the sum of other members' works - for example this here piece is exactly like the later Japan.. or Sylvian's pieces like "pulling punches".. anyway..
LOVE THIS SONG, WAS LISTENING ON MY WAY TO SCHOOL! THIS IS NO DOUBT GOING TO BE ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE. CAN ANYONE FILL ME WITH INFORMATION FROM THIS DUO PLEASE?
@dumdumfriend Steve Jansen was from the band Japan, and Yukihiro Takahashi was (and still is) in the band Yellow Magic Orchestra. The two bands collaborated all the time in one way or another, and every song was pure gold.
This song and vid is great and everything, but you got to admit, Steve Jansen has the dancing skills of BORAT!!!! Awkward, clumsy, AWKWARD!!! TeeHee!!! ;D
Damn, Steve Jensen dances like Elaine from Seinfeld!

@ariesscorpiorising He's actually quite a sexy dancer. I think that the silly dancing was for comic effect. :-D
