sometimes I can't believe that a Japanese composer can understand our Chinese culture so much. He is really great because he writes all the Chinese ancient spirit in his songs. I love Ryuchi FOREVER!!!
60% of the Japanese culture was imported from China since Tang Dynasty. Japanese follow Confucius spirit probably more than Chinese nowadays. That’s why this Japanese composer can easily understand and translate the story into music language. Japan also is the best Asian country that absorbs and utilize the western music instruments and skills, with East Asian characteristics. However there’s fewer great master musicians from Japan in the past ten years. The peak was probably in 1970-1990s
@@davidxiong9497 just received and I learn that Ryuichi listened to 20 Chinese traditional music discs in one day and he created those music in one week. So I am pretty impressed.
Unfortunately today has just witnessed Ryuichi Sakamoto pass away. A Chinese friend of mine MD Chiu Aishinchuero, a grand son of a cousin of the Last Emperor, and I pay our heartiest condolence to him. RIP
Perfect. I still remember the day I heard this song for the first time. I can't stop crying. Thank you, Mr. Sakamoto. You left us a lot of beautiful art music. thank you.
Non ci sono parole per descrivere l’emozione interiore che questo brano mi da…io amo l’estremo Oriente e amo la sua musica ma questo pezzo è semplicemente un capolavoro…grazie per avermi emozionato così tanto…ti amo Oriente😘😘😘😘😘
Very sad to hear of his passing today. A remarkable composer and musician who, with Yellow Magic Orchestra and his work with David Sylvian drew the world's attention to the music of Japan.
I was 12 when I saw the Last Emperor. Of course I cryed for the movie but the music... I brought the CD as soon as I can. I am french and I have a hudge respect for Mister Sakamoto. Rest in Piece Master.
@@dokapin100 Personally I think Japanese historically had a respect and got influenced from ancient China. Actually i have a respect about Chinese legacy. Yet, our ancestors developed ourselves in culture, thought or others. Of course, we have original traditions, which were not from China. I mean, we, both Japanese and Chinese people, shoud not have a point of view as too nationalistic or extreme postscript Why i wrote this is there is a sickly fuckin nationlistic japanese said something crazy
When I listen to this song I feel like everything in life is like the tidal waves, the problems you have subdue and reside every once so often. Life can be extremely depressing and empty, yet so full of beautiful things. In the end, I believe life is all about finding your own path and being happy.
@@Malick-ix9io I’ve heard about that, I cried when he says he would still making music as a person with disease buried in him, I still hope he would stay with us for long. Fingers Crossed
I saw this movie in the 80s when I was a teenager. It is definitely one of the best movies to date, and the music score is so beautiful and moving. There was this scene whereby the wet nurse left the young Emperor Puyi, and this piece of music came up. That scene is definitely one of the most unforgettable scenes in cinematic history. The young Emperor Puyi running down long lanes in the forbidden city finding his "butterfly". That scene just breaks my heart.
Mi corazón está roto... Con sus maravillosas melodías y composiciones me ayudó a luchar contra la depresión... pude descubrir la belleza de la melancolía y entenderla. Que la tierra le sea leve Maestro.
Uma das primeiras músicas que me fez chorar... E me fez prestar atenção no quanto uma trilha sonora pode tocar as pessoas, no mundo inteiro. Linda música e interpretação, Maestro. Descanse em paz.
Rest in peace, Ryuichi. This is one of my favorite themes and pieces of music ever. It always reduces me to tears and touches so deeply in my heart. Even when I was in my junior or senior year of high school, I was brought to tears hearing this as I am today. Your genius will never be forgotten
Omaggio al grande Ruoki.. Mio figlio ha avuto l'onore di assistere a due suoi concerti... ed ha avuto anche il suo autografo😢😢😢 ovunque tu sia ... che la terra ti sia lieve ❤❤❤

It's hard to beat the opening 1:50 of this song. It is inspirational, provocative and soporific at once. Only Sakamoto can evoke so varied feelings in one composition. Classic.

あ〜生で聴けたらどれだけ幸せだろうかと思う。なぜにこんなに魂震えるのだろうか。初見から34年たった今もラストエンペラーの感動が色褪せない。素晴らしい...😭
うん
👏👏👏
夕陽無限好，只是近黃昏。王朝的覆滅，時代的淪歿，都宛若巨大的夕陽，緩緩沉落西山。面對將盡晚景，個體的人無可奈何，只剩一腔悲意。因為這情感綺密幽晦，不可言喻，只好借阪本龍一奏的這曲盛世悲歌方能疏解。
ラストエンペラーの中でこれが一番好きです。
教授よ永遠なれ
定期的に聴きにきてしまう。
数年前紫禁城に行った時に、イヤホンでこの曲を聴きながら紫禁城の中を歩いたら壮大すぎた。もう一度行きたい。
えっ、今入れるんだ。
Same thing I did!
それはいいですね✨
私も紫禁城に行く時はこの曲を聴きながら歩こうと思います。
全く同じことをしてる人を見つけた。俺も紫禁城に行ったとき、自然にこの曲を再生してたよ。その時はまさか教授がお亡くなりになるなんて微塵にも思ってなかった。俺ももう一度行きたいって思ってる。

初めて聴いたのは小学生の時でした。切なくて胸がぎゅっとしたのと同時に、立ち向かう勇気の様な奮い立たなきゃと思う曲に圧倒されました。挫けそうな時私を勇気付けてくださった曲です。美しい曲をありがとうございました。

ラストエンペラー。小学生の時、母に連れられ田舎の映画館で見ました。当時はただ映像と音楽に圧倒されていました。

1番はやっぱりラストエンペラーですが。

Astonishingly beautiful piece of music from Mr. Sakamoto. May you rest in peace

Vangelis, Ennio Maricone, Ryuichi Sakamoto. Your music will be forever relevant.
비극과 운명을 중국풍의 색채로 어떻게 이렇게 아름답게 써내려갈 수 있었을까? 심지어 그때는 류이치 사카모토가 마흔살도 안되었을 때인데..
