Magic Ways(1984) Tatsuro Yamashita Lyrics by Alan O'Day, Music Composed, Arranged by Tatsuro Yamashita Released: June 20, 1984 from "BIG WAVE" The way you whisper in my ear, To make my troubles disappear It's magic The way your little fingertips, Can make my heart do double flips It's magic And when you smile at me that way, Well you can warm the coldest day It's magic And even when you're gone I find, I hear you laughing in my mind It's magic (magic, magic) And all I have to do is think of you, To make the music start to play Then I dance down the street And the people I meet stop and say‥‥hey hey Magic ways My friend You love the girl with magic ways, and it's true I might as well give in You cast a spell on all my nights and days With your sweet magic ways When I go to sleep it seems, You sprinkle stardust in my dreams It's magic(magic, magic) And in the morning when I rise, The mockingbirds all harmonize It's magic(magic, magic) And when you want me you just clap your hands, And I'll be with you right away Then we'll float on a breeze While the leaves in the trees softly say‥‥hey hey Magic ways My friend You love the girl with magic ways, and it's true I might as well give in You cast a spell on all my nights and days With your sweet magic ways (magic, magic) Recording Musicians Tatsuro Yamashita Vocal, Electric Guitar, Auto Harp, Prophet 5, Glockenspiel, Percussion & Background Vocals Jun Aoyama Drums & Percussion Koki Itoh Bass Hiroyuki Namba Rhodes & Piano Recording studios: CBS Sony Roppongi Tokyo, Onkio Haus & ALFA Studio Tokyo.
While he was brilliant and talented I think the thing that helped tatsuro Yamashita the most was that there was a time lag getting media to Japan. So they're still strong element of the seventies even though it was made in the 80s
This vid made me happy, man. I love how you were saying "Magic Waves" too haha, innocent mistake but it took nothing away from the reaction. Keep it up, you rock
Hey, how did you come across this tune, if I may ask? Also, if an asteroid ever comes to earth, and they are sending a spaceship out with the best humanity has to offer, i will give up my spot to you. Humanity *needs* your magic _waves._ ✨🌊
Groovy Baby! Love this one out of the comments.
fun fact: Alan O'day co-wrote the lyrics, and he's also best friends with him. he's a famous american singer-songwriter!
The legendary Japanese City Pop.
Magic Ways(1984) Tatsuro Yamashita
Lyrics by Alan O'Day,
Music Composed, Arranged by Tatsuro Yamashita
Released: June 20, 1984 from "BIG WAVE"
The way you whisper in my ear,
To make my troubles disappear
It's magic
The way your little fingertips,
Can make my heart do double flips
It's magic
And when you smile at me that way,
Well you can warm the coldest day
It's magic
And even when you're gone I find,
I hear you laughing in my mind
It's magic (magic, magic)
And all I have to do is think of you,
To make the music start to play
Then I dance down the street
And the people I meet stop and say‥‥hey hey
Magic ways My friend
You love the girl with magic ways,
and it's true
I might as well give in
You cast a spell on all my nights and days
With your sweet magic ways
When I go to sleep it seems,
You sprinkle stardust in my dreams
It's magic(magic, magic)
And in the morning when I rise,
The mockingbirds all harmonize
It's magic(magic, magic)
And when you want me you just clap your hands,
And I'll be with you right away
Then we'll float on a breeze
While the leaves in the trees softly say‥‥hey hey
Magic ways My friend
You love the girl with magic ways,
and it's true
I might as well give in
You cast a spell on all my nights and days
With your sweet magic ways
(magic, magic)
