[tukacchi1000]

I'm sick and tired of the same old chaos

Must be a way to get out of this cul-de-sac

Give me a cue

I think I've nearly found you

Give me a cue

I can see clues all around me

The sound of music

The crying of the air

The sound of music

The sound of my own voice

[tukacchi1000]

Give me a cue I think I've nearly found you Give me a cue I can see clues all around me The sound of music The crying of the air Give me a cue I think I've nearly found you Give me a cue I can see clues all around me The sound of music The crying of the air The sound of music The echo of the earth

[Duke1966]

Nothing sounds like 80's music and never will

I, too, remember listening to this back in the '80's--I had to buy it on import, as I recall--it was on the YMO-BGM album. A brilliant, brilliant album, and something none of my friends had ever heard--it still holds up to this day, imo.

i'm surprised to notice the peter barakan who now hosts a tv show is a writer of cue. two dots or something of the like just connected in my mind.

I used to play this on the bus to work in the 80's. Haunting is not the word! Absolutely BRILLIANT to find it again...my tapes went west decades ago!

Beware the Cul De Sac of the NWO!

thank yous!

[technodon9]

I think YMO from this era composed such an astounding music. It sounds just fine even today.

FYI, I was only 11, and I tried to get the ticket for this live..well, it was sold out..

[rownu]

lyrics plz.

Yeh, Sakamoto is drummung, the first time that I saw the video, I didn't see it from the beginning x_x
