Kaze wo atsumete | 風をあつめ | Happy End | Lost in Translation | cover by Maxim

One of my favorite songs from "Lost in Translation" soundtrack. The whole soundtrack is fantastic, but this song composed and sung by Hosono Haruomi of "Happy End" (great name!) made me interested in Japanese music, particularly rock'n'roll and jazz of 60s and 70s. I have no idea what it's all about, but it stuck with me since I saw the movie the first time. What a great tune!

Hey there, just wondering if you actually had a tab for this or if you were just figuring it out based on the chords? Sorry if a billion people have asked this. Excellent cover by the way.

@JakeStarstorm Thanks! I just had chords, and figured finger-picking by listening to the record.

I'm grad as one japanese that a foreigner plays a japanese music with enjoyment and from your heart.

This music, which I heard at the very first time through the movie "Lost in Translation" like you, is so gentle and memorable that I cant forget.

The movie and the music, both are magical combination.

@ABCamis Thank you! I thought the entire soundtrack in this movie was brilliant. Every song was awesome! My list of top movie soundtracks are:

1. "Lost in translation" (various artists)

2. "The last temptation of Christ" soundtrack by Peter Gabriel

3. "Drive" (various artists)

4. "Desperado" (various artists)
