I had 2 friends that died with Kyu Sakamoto on that faithful day and every time I hear this song it make me think how precious life is and how grateful I am to still be here. RIP Mako, Kim & Kyu

Thank you for sharing this video.Kyu-chan was a very special person. I like very much his joy and his wonderful smile :-) But especially when listening to his songs and knowing about the tragic end of his life (and that of so many other victims of this terrible crash) I always feel grateful to be alive. For the people who know only Sukiyaki ;-), check his other songs on YT and don't miss 太陽と土と水を/坂本九 Maybe the happiest song ever and such a beautiful message for all of us !!!

@margolou2010 Thank you so very much for your comment. If we want to or not it's always been one day at a time. Ever since I was a young boy I've always love the "Sukiyaki " song not only do I have it in my computer, iPod & 1950's juke box and can listen to it any time I want. I know that even till this day Kyu Sakamoto is the only Japanese person to have a #1 hit on the U.S. Billboard charts. That is a great honor to him. I thanks the person who posted this very rare clip and sharing it with us

@AWomanOnAJourney Thanks so much for your kind words. I can't believe it's been 2 years and that 30 people have voted my comment up since I wrote it.

@rocksinger45: I'm sorry for your loss. :( It was truly a tragedy. May they rest in peace.

I still think back to 1963 and how all of the United States fell in love with this song even though we had no idea what the words meant.

@roaringwaterbay The plane's systems failed which caused it to spiral out of control, the pilots tried to make an emergency landing, but ended up crashing into a mountain.

how did the plane crash? was this the plane shot down by the filthy Russians?
Thank you for watching a video.
I want to watch Steve Allen show more, too.
