For whoever is just discovering this type of music. The genre is generally called CityPop. It's a distinctive 70s-80s Japanese pop that has a funky jazz dance RnB feeling to it.

Even though the only lyrics I understand are “it’s so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown” the backing music is beautiful and so catchy! The whole song is sung so clear and gorgeous.
please correct me if i'm wrong but these were the lyrics? she literally has a conversation in the middle of song, the only reason it even sounds remoletely good is because it's sung in japanese and it has a very catchy chorus but that's about it. [Chorus] It's so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown In the midnight crowd It’s so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown The neon signs pop [Verse 1] A foreigner hits my shoulder, throwing me a wink You're a stranger, a confusing scene Even if I'm tired of dancing, I’ll play along until morning I want to drink something where I can see the harbor [Chorus] It's so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown Kisses upon jasmine It's so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown I'm a foreigner, too [Verse 2] I point to a silk dress lined up in a store With that stern face of yours, I think you're being selfish The lady's ingratiating smile, "It surely looks great on you" I want to change my clothes somewhere quiet [Chorus] It's so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown Silk slip moonlight It's so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown I’m a foreigner, too It’s so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown Kisses upon jasmine It's so Fly-Day, Fly-Day Chinatown I’m a foreigner, too
@@kaz_50 i mean its kind of obvious the translation isnt going to sound good. it probably flows well / rhymes well in japanese, just not in english because- duh, translations.
I imagine this song as a late 80's or early 90's anime intro that shows bright city lights, people walking down the road, a theatre, etc. Try to imagine all of this in your head. The outcome might look nice.
I remember growing up in Japan when I was 10. I had just stepped out of a book store, and a pretty girl the same age shyly held out her hand to me and asked me if I wanted to walk around with her. This song was playing on the radio where we stopped to have ramen together. She never gave me her name, but told me a day to always meet her to hold hands and walk or picnic. I finally got her name a few months later - Mitsuki. We became close friends, but my parents took a job to America when we were 13, so I had to leave her, both of us in tears and snot. I would send her letters, and she would send letters back. At 22, she suddenly stopped mailing me. I thought she was gone. 5 months later, she was at my door in America, with her hand out to me when I opened the door. We're married in our 40's now, and we've taken walks through multiple cities together across the world and we always stop someplace that has noodles and play this song on our phone. Thank you Mariya. Your love may be plastic, but mine is beautiful thanks to this song. If you see a middle-aged couple with or without their kids with them, holding hands and acting like teenagers or even young kids in Tokyo browsing the shops, its us. just keeping this copy paste alive.
This has movie scene vibes of A.) "We're being set up! Put your foot down" *getaway car slams into gear as song starts with chase scene B.) *A flashback scene to the 1980s somewhere placed in the intro* Absolutely love this song.
This makes me nostalgic for this time period and I wasn't even born 💀 But really it makes me feel like I'm walking through a crowded city to a building that I'm going to fall from, I don't know why but that's what popped into my head
there is a long street near my house that stretches for a quarter of the length of my town. every time i hang out with friends, i get back home through there, and i almost always put this song. it just makes you feel magical to look up to a purple-blue sky while seeing the streetlights and the palmtrees on the sides
Pra quem veio por causa do video na live do Gaules e curtiu esse tipo de musica, procurem pelo gênero *"City Pop"* e vão encontrar muitas musicas similares. É um som bem nostálgico que relembra o pop da década de 70 e 80 do Japão. Existe varias playlists de City Pop aqui no youtube, é um gênero que muita gente que nasceu depois dessa época está redescobrindo e virando fã. 😄
For anyone liking the clear powerful voice on this song, may I suggest this song also "Bunny Girls / 바니걸즈 - 쎄라 쎄라" ua-cam.com/video/F2Cxz_qEfMc/v-deo.html
This is the best song for taking a walk in a big city, or any city really. And when the chorus hits the first time, its like seeing an amazing view of the city you have never seen before, ready to take a memorable walk around.
It's well executed, well produced and with a big emphasis on groove, and groove is something that has been lost in modern music and it's also something that resonates with human nature: if you think about that the first instruments, as far as we can discern, were percussions with which you made... groove! Also japanese as a language, like italian for example, is full of vocals and really invites powerful vocals, vibratos and other stuff that's partially lost on languages like english, where these stuff is not as preminent, or maybe it is but in another way!
the chords are so good and discoey and HSM and nostalgic. its like a night in the foresty mountains under the stars with a campfire in the 80s or a music teacher's song
guess who introduced me to Japanese 80s songs? my crush. it was our second meeting. he came to pick me up with his Toyota and he was playing Japanese 80s songs. we were driving, talking about everything, joking around and just vibing. I really miss talking with him. he has been away from home, so... the last time we talked face to face was a week ago. I hope we get to talk soon! I'll let him rest this weekend and ask on Monday if he could hang out some day (before Christmas).

There's this live cam of Shinjuku that I always watch for fun. I've always wanted to go to Japan and I imagine one day I really go without informing anyone, then go in front of that cam and play this song. Then call my family and tell them "open up that live cam" and they gone see me, jamming to this song, waving at them lmao. That's going to be one of the best feelings ever.
Thank god. I was gonna have to go look up the lyrics. I know some Japanese as I’m taking my third year. I thought I could figure out what she was saying

agree! and the songs are so much more melodic and interesting than western music (at least American, music from certain european countries can be good too)
@Gabriel Collazos western inspired but not western. it's the same (to me at least) for k-pop, it's inspired by western music but it's just more musical overall if that makes sense
@@Iwanttoblowmybrainsoutrn no of course there are, i was more speaking of popular music nowadays. old western music is good too, and like i wrote, european music is pretty good. a lot of current american popular songs aren’t great though
Growing up in NYC , Chinatown was the place I would run away to when I was going through things , shout out to the Old school Chinatown fait arcade , the dollar lol mien lady and the Pocky spot I'm so happy I found this song I can relive those memories
My father has this exact EP. I liked this song when I was a child back in late 70s and early 80s. I also liked Machiko Watanabe and Junko Yagami. If you are interested, try “Kamome Ga Tonda Hi” and “Mizuiro no Ame”. They are both great composers and fantastic singers❗️👍

lyrics translation:
It's So Fly-Day, Fly-Day China Town
In the midnight crowd
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day China Town
The neon signs pop!
A foreigner throws a wink over my way
Your face is struck with bewilderment
Even if I'm tired of dancing, I'll play along 'til the morning
I'd like to drink something at the place where a harbor is seen8
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day China Town
A kiss of the jasmin
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day China Town
I don't belong here either
I point to the silk dress in the shop
With your silence, I think you're being selfish
Because of that smile, that dress surely suits me
I'd let to go somewhere quiet
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day China Town
The moonlight hits my cheeks
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day China Town
I don't belong here either
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day China Town
A kiss of the jasmin
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day China Town
I don't belong here either
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day CHINA TOWN
in the midnight crowd
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day CHINA TOWN
popping neon sign
Throw a foreigner (Jingai) wink that hits the shoulder
You, who doesn't know
Even if I'm tired of dancing, I'll play until morning
I want to drink something at a place where I can see the harbor
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day CHINA TOWN
kiss jasmine
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day CHINA TOWN
I'm a foreigner too
Pointing at the silk dress lined up in the shop
You look sour, I want to be selfish
An amiable smiley lady, I'm sure it suits you
I want to change clothes somewhere quiet
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day CHINA TOWN
moonlight on cheeks

I'm a foreigner too
It's So Fly-Day Fly-Day CHINA TOWN

@@sakusas_maskk not just 90s but also 70s and 80s have a ton of rly cool songs
😭 this song js soothes my heart esp during tough times. Ty
Finaly i found this song thank you who ever post this 🤜🤛
This is a fuckin bop
The only song that makes you feel like the main character in a anime opening
This song would be really nice to listen on a roadtrip while going through a small mountain road. I'll put this on max volume when it happens
This song came out in 1981 so 44 years old
I bet if you randomly got invited to a 50th birthday party in Tokyo, this song would be on the DJ's playlist or someone would request it
I just can not describe the joy, I have been looking for this for so long!
There's this live cam of Shinjuku that I always watch for fun. I've always wanted to go to Japan and I imagine one day I really go without informing anyone, then go in front of that cam and play this song. Then call my family and tell them "open up that live cam" and they gone see me, jamming to this song, waving at them lmao. That's going to be one of the best feelings ever.
I really hope you get to go one day!!
Do it
Love yourself
Thank god. I was gonna have to go look up the lyrics. I know some Japanese as I’m taking my third year. I thought I could figure out what she was saying
@@bdizzle501 anything you can teach easy in a paragraph? I finished playing Yakuza 0 on hard mode, would be nice to know anything quick as I move on into Japanese digital culture .
@@waterhotter9668 not in one paragraph as there are so many different rules compared to English. There are some great apps(like duolingo) that I use for school if I’m ever bored. That could be pretty helpful especially to get at least the basics plus some
Bless you ❤️
Hi, since you wrote the lyrics, I'll try to translate this young lady's story into English :-)
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Mayonaka no hitogomi ni
In the cloud of people
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Hashikeru neon sign
Neon signs are shining
Kata ni butsukaru jingai
Uinku o nageru
Some foreigners intentionally bump into me
and I surely wink at him
Shirankao no anata
Tomadoi no hito koma
but you pretend as if you don't notice,
an awkward scene we have
Odori tsukarete ite mo
Asa made asobu wa
I decided to play until morning, as if I already got tired dancing
Minato no mieru basho de
Nanika nomitai no yo
Yes, I wanna drink something at a place with a beautiful harbor view.
(The biggest china-town is lacated in Yokohama city, which is the most famous harbor town in Japan)
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Jasumin ni kuchidzuke o
I'll kiss a cup of jasmin drink
(Jasmin tea is a popular in Chinese drink)
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Watashi mo ikokujinun ne
I'm an alien here, too
O mise ni narabu kinu no
Doresu o yubisasu
I point a dress in a showcase in town
Shibui kao no anata
Wagamama ga iitai
You look unsatisfied, but it's me who want to complain
Aisou warai no obasan
Kitto niau wa to
A shop woman says it's surely suite me with a fake smile
Doko ka shizukana basho de
Kigaete mitai no yo
I want change my cloths at somewhere in silent.
(There is a big LOVE-HOTEL area by Yokohama China Town)
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Kinuzure no tsuki akari
The gentle rustle of my cloths in a moon light
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Watashi mo ikokujin ne
I'm an alien here, too
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Jasumin ni kuchidzuke o
I'll kiss a cup of jasmine drink
It's so fly-day, fly-day Chinatown
Watashi mo ikokujin ne
I'm an alien here, too
She looks like she want to "fly", get be free from many things around her on this weekend.
Just heard this from watching Asanebo Restaurant. They got a new subscriber and I got to learn about a new song to absolutely jam to.
guys try listening to this song at 1 am its amazing
I was listening to this when i got my Nintendo switch, this song will forever take me to the summer of 2020 and how good it was.
もっと評価されてもいい曲。
Theres an unexplainable beauty in songs like this
So pure for some reason
the reverb
QUE PRO
Ya 3 años de uno de los mejores memés, y sigo aca
beautiful song i almost forgot about it dude
The vibe is immaculate
The way people sing in the East… in Asia and Africa is SO beautiful! 🥺 🙏🏾
agree! and the songs are so much more melodic and interesting than western music (at least American, music from certain european countries can be good too)
Can you recommend me any African music? I'm interested!
@Gabriel Collazos western inspired but not western. it's the same (to me at least) for k-pop, it's inspired by western music but it's just more musical overall if that makes sense
@@universalsubliminals1174 ah, now you're just hating on western culture. Bruh we got different tastes, there are REALLY good American songs lmao
@@Iwanttoblowmybrainsoutrn no of course there are, i was more speaking of popular music nowadays. old western music is good too, and like i wrote, european music is pretty good. a lot of current american popular songs aren’t great though
the feelings i get from this song are unexplainable
This song is so memorizing and soft
Growing up in NYC , Chinatown was the place I would run away to when I was going through things , shout out to the Old school Chinatown fait arcade , the dollar lol mien lady and the Pocky spot
I'm so happy I found this song I can relive those memories
Feel extra nostalgic blasting this song in my 90’s Miata through the mountain roads
I AM IN LOVE WITH HER VOICE 💟
Imagine hearing this song alone or with your lover and it's very rainy outside and you are walking in the rain
Finally i found the song...this is a gem
didnt expect it to be that one song i always hear
i was so intrigued from the intro (its a masterpiece)
i feel proud knowing this song before it blew up online 🙏😩
So do i 🤞
Que bro ?!
Ur so cool
So do I
@vizzo ive been listening to this song for years i only made this comment last month bc it was blowing up
Greetings from Kazakhstan ☺️🇰🇿❤️
Amazing song! Discovered it through UA-cam playlists of Japan's city pop from the 1980's
You’re doing blow and your favorite anime opening music comes on!
My father has this exact EP. I liked this song when I was a child back in late 70s and early 80s. I also liked Machiko Watanabe and Junko Yagami. If you are interested, try “Kamome Ga Tonda Hi” and “Mizuiro no Ame”. They are both great composers and fantastic singers❗️👍
Thanks for the recommendation
Gurl the song was made in the 1980s
damn you really put me on
all the best
70's and 80's Japanese City pop is really helping me drive to work without breaking down and crying because I hate my work !!
This song is just everything
Cuenta la leyenda que esa es la canción original de Finn y Jake diciendo "QUE PRO" 🗣️

@@Mochi1818 it just means "8 6" in Japanese
amazing
This reminds me of waking up at 3am on Saturday night to anime playing on Toonami. Just has that 80s anime vibe
wow ended up here because of the sample used in the song "FIGHT!" and I now see they were paying homage to a legend. this shit SLAPS.
this reminds me a lot of the soul music that my dad would put on for me when I was little! I love this Genre of music so much
Eu acho o máximo descobrir uma nova jóia da música japonesa pelas playlists do UA-cam. Hoje foi o caso dessa música!
Me encanta este tipo de música!,Me hace sentir feliz y segura de mi misma 🩵
🩷
Eu amo a música Brasileira, porém eu me rendo a essa obra de arte.
It's been a long time since I've last felt goosebumps listening to music
This actually feels relaxing
I am absolutely obsessed with this song. So damn catchy and pleasant to listen to.
Idk why but listen this MASTERPIECE in a dark room while there's a tropical storm is happening gives me 💫The vibes💫
I first heard this song play in a Flyann twitch stream and totally enjoyed it.
Quando escuto essa música me imagino da década de 80's, vestida com roupas da época e andando nas ruas de Tokyo de noite.
Igualzinho a minha pessoa Chapo nessa letra
It dosent get any better than this 🤩
This song got taken off my spotify so we here
its back on for me
Such a bright disco sounding song. I love it
I have no idea what the lyrics are saying, but this goes HARD 🗣️🗣️
Best song ever! When I listen this song, I want to visit Japan!
I swear I love the vocals ☺️❤️
Hoy que conocí esta canción me siento un poco mas feliz que ayer.
Que pro!
