  • I have only heard the english lyrics written by A Taste Of Honey so thanks for bringing this up to find and listen :)

  • @konked my pleasure.

  • This is a more than special number by Mr. Akens. I was 10 years old when the Birds and the Bees tune became a hit. An even bigger hit with me is "My first Lonley Night" I believe I was 8-9 years old when Sukiyaki came out, a tremendous hit in the USA. But, "My First Lonely Night" is a monument and worthy of greatest praise! What a special tune!

  • @seeagle9 Thanks for the comments, a special tune.

  • This seems to be a decent interpretation of the themes of the original song. Parts of it are even based of the original lyrics. This is a real treat to find.

  • @Hikikomori013 Pleased to provide this one for you.

  • @20FlightBlues I totally agree. I loved the song in 1963.

    but listening to the words in English only makes the song

    better.

    If you like 1963 music, I have a great playlist, among

    my many music playlists.

  • @theboyfromxtown Yes there are many versions, The lyrics in this version are the closest to the Japanese original.

  • Sugoi

  • Thank you, Jewel Akins

  • Hermosa musica soy Peruano y me gusta esta melodia que tiene multiples versiones

  • Other than the original this was always my favorite version, it's amazing.

  • This is the version that my mum listens to. (: I taught myself to play it on piano one day 'cause i had it stuck in my head.

    I know, "My First Lonely Night Without You" "You Took Your Love Away From Me" & the Japanese Sukiyaki. (:

  • Check out the very different 45 version. It's available here on youtube

  • Bobby Vee did this version on one of his "30 Hits of the 60's" albums. A great song by anybody who does it.
