old Japanese song with modern Chinese dance

[CerylTrini]

I do love the feeling and heart rendering emotion of this simple and yet intricate, little tune. Yet I do wish I could hear this and others in a more simple, acoustic traditional style. Can anyone point me in a direction where I could hear traditional Japanese Music?

I agree with what you said about Eri Sugai, but this song is not in the category of 'relaxing.' It's a sad song, beautiful though.
