Ryuichi Sakamoto - The Last Emperor (Trio World Tour 1996)

[mahayz]

Sakamotos hair is amazing !

[roxy782]

Exposed to this because of John Mayer. Sweet stuff. :)

[NineToesXD]

its the violin that makes this track, the piano does overshadow it a bit much

[zerikuri]

ああ…言葉では言い表せない。鳥肌がとまりません。生で聞きたか­った。坂本龍一は日本の誇る最高のアーティストです。

[Ustatesmarinecorps]

Absolutely fascinating. When I am sad, the best thing for me to do is just listen to this wonderful piece of music and relax.

[TomKaren1994]

About 1,000 of the views are all me.

[connettivista]

Beautiful

[TheMitsuakick]

たまんねぇ



[schwelty]

The best musicians always look like they're having the best sex of their lives.

[jennysoprano]

me enamore de Sakamoto con esta canción, escucharla me hace estremecer completamente. :D definitivamente una joya musical.

[kamipark2020]

violin player is so good. :) I can feel the emotions

[stbr68]

I finally got the chance to see him live not too long ago. After he left the stage there was so much applause he came back on and played three up-tempo songs. He left again, and once again we all cheered for him. He came back and finally ended with this song. It was as if we were all just waiting for that final emotional release. I would still have thrilled if he hadn't come back one last time, but somehow, this song made the evening perfect.

[feliciayou2be]

i die for this i die for this! such a beautiful and emotional music ever. Ryuichi Sakamoto is so outstanding~ it made me watch this moive again-The Last Emperor. im still overwhelmed by it,and it still breaks my heart. Then I cannot help reading this history and the last emperor's left behind tales. anyone who have ever been moved the movies?

[Francesq9]

Gracias a Dios por darnos toda la belleza a través de la música

[ndsamusik]

Kirei desu!!!11 ^_^

[ikezawak]

たった３人でこの迫力。凄い･･･。

最後ちょっとミスったね（笑）

[TheInsaneZenChild]

My only wish is to meet this incredible man.

I only wonder if he understands what he means to so many people in this world. :)

[llJAFYll]

no wonder the movie got an oscar for best music.

[KevinVang1000]

Is there a music sheet for this?

[stbr68]

/05 sheet music book. Piano only.

[KevinVang1000]

Where do I get them?

[alejandrodepinedo]

magic... floating...

[RaketeRoll]

This is the most beautifuy piece of music i have ever heard in my life

[BrujaCelestial]

try listening to Preizner's music then..

the soundrack for the film "la double vie de Veronique" is just beautiful....

[14kyd]

My daughter just start learnig to play a violin, but I hope she will play this one for me sometime.

It's so beautiful.

[pitot1988]

Don't push her too hard! IT is nice for your daughter to know how to play violin, but let her play what she really enjoy :). Even tough this is a great piece!

[14kyd]

I'm not pushing her anything. Her school has an orchestra class and she wants to play a violin. She is only 9, and playing "Old MacDonald had a Farm" with her violin at this point.

What we are doing is listening this music together.

( I can imagine it's not easy to play)

[pitot1988]

I am sorry for giving the comment that way. I understand being a parent is tough. Ones want their children can do their best in whatever they pursuit. And I guess it is decent for the children to entertain the parents sometimes. You are right, we should just enjoy the piece together and let the future comes as what it could be.

[jameslo93]

any 1 noes where to get this original piano score? I have one that sucked...

[pojhe]

omg!!!! i wanna be like him too!!!!!!!!But i dont know how to play piano......

[trazise]

music for movie " whuthering heights" 1992 was the only thing that made that movie better than book. Fantastic...love your music

[Yellowtron]

I don't think I have ever seen this many reps on a single video page before (...don't stop now)!

[Dawn876]

[ice680]

[controlmc]

Sakamoto perfect !!!

[kaikauruwashii]

beautifully heart-wrenching.

[AaronUlm]

...a millenium composition...

[manasama123]

i love this music. so calm. he did a very great job.

[dukelukem77]

I was lucky to see this trio in 1996 from the front row in Melbourne. It was the first non-rock concert I'd been to. 13 years ago and I can still remember how amazing it was!

[stbr68]

You lucky bastard. :)

[Lisanab]

so freakin fantastic and note perfect ... makes me cry everytime

[stbr68]

This is one of the most amazing songs I have ever heard. It encompasses love, anger, sorrow, and even peace. Every detail is perfectly in place here, I couldn't wish for more with this music.

[ianwestwell]

So calm and quite to listen

[3sassi]

wonderful.

[8122556]

Powerful! As I read what people have written in this section.. it brings out so much . It moves though my veins and I don't want to get rid of it!!

[sameil]

This is the most emotionally draining song ever. I go through so many highs and lows listening to it. Its the most beautiful song. I want this song to be in my head when I die. Sakamoto's music sings to my soul. Its as though the vibrational patterns of the rhythm are in synch with that of my heart. I wish all of GOD's blessings to him for this masterpiece.

[mittrell]

the saddest piece of music i have ever heard...heart breaking...you can swim in your own tears for hours...

[kdkjrf]

if i could frame this, i would.

[joseph322503]

How sad the song is...

[TACHTIN]

His music is wonderful.

[Horseshoebender]

[iuaijp]

he's　like　a　musical　magician

[natalie081]

:))

[sephi1573]

i like this one better than the one with orchestra

[Obsessions28]

I just bought the piano sheet music from Japan and it is really hard to play. I am not giving up. I am playing one measure at a time. This video is a real inspiration to me. To see the notes come alive with the fingers is to remind me that it is not hard with practice. Thanks.

[RedPanda79]

Don´t give up!

[heartilyjemy]
