People, you weren't born in the wrong generation. It's much better now. All of this music is now at your fingertips, in the best quality! Back in the day, the friggin' dark ages, you would have missed out on so much of this good stuff, because it would be that much harder to know about, discover, or even buy.
Yeah, information aplenty, we'll never know how it is to be super-rich in the middle of the bubble, driving a cabrio into the sunrise by the seaside, in Tokyo Bay, after a night of passion with a young and lively lady whose first interest is having mindless fun. The sea breeze in your hair, the empty road, this music playing... (EDIT: I hadn't read the translated lyrics before I told you this, but apparently it's what the song is all about!)
Here I am a non-Japanese person, not understanding a word these 70's and 80's Japanese singers are singing yet they captured me and made me mesmerized with their songs and tunes. Totally legit and relaxing.
Look at the map before typing, Kyoto is almost in osaka, japan is big. More than 5 hours from numazu to tsuchiura and that's not even the 6th part of the road. I wonder how long it would take a trip to Kyoto
It's still a great time to be alive because you're able to find this song and experience it, if you think about it. Next best thing but I totally feel you
Every time I listen to 80s Japanese music I think of the movie My Lucky Stars, in certain parts of the film when the characters are in Japan at night it reminds me of all those good 80s songs
Having trouble uploading here but it’s on my instagram I’m hoping to order Tomoko Arans infamous album since it’s out for preorder for the first time since the 80s 😁

A middle-of-the -night joke I'll soon be inside a morning Guess it's close... This smell A drive all alone This's right off the top of my head A middle-of-the -night joke I'm not good at getting up early But staying up late, it depends on my mood I'm a female who I can drive flat out any time I want Though the same is true of love, it's just a joke when I start a love There's nobody and no oncoming car I'm drifting away alone In the case of a drama, a guy is there when I look at passenger seat Cool guy who I have ever seen once or twice This's a bad joke, so stop it! I'll soon be inside a morning Guess it's close... This smell A drive all alone This's right off the top of my head A middle-of-the -night joke With luck, I might be able to see the sea With luck, I'm able to forget it I'm a female who I cry in regret after joking too much "This is trueth," I'll be able to say that but I keep on drive The way I am, remain unchanged
3 years ago I was at rock bottom. I was depressed and lost more will to live with each day that ended. My daughter was about to be born and I was out of a job and I had dropped out of college and I was just watching how uninspired my life was, so I listened to this song for many nights and allowed her to hold on to my feelings and that was liberating. Many years may pass but whenever I listen I will remember the feeling, the loneliness and being filled with yourself. stay well!
this song reminds me of my crush. the last time we were hanging out (driving around with his car and talking about everything possible), we listened to Japanese 80s songs. I fell in love with the genre! I can't wait to see him again. he's currently in a military training (has been there for a year, but we started talking a month ago), but that will end in ~11 days. I can't wait to hug and kiss him again. I can't wait to hang out with him.
I've listened to this hundreds of times over the years. A lot of memories come back when i listen, lots of emotions too. One of the best songs I've ever heard. mahalo nui Takako Mamiya
Probably the most aesthetic, chill, rythmic and beautiful city pop track ever made, so unfortunate that takako only made on album and she wasn't even that well known in Japan... We gotta make sure the world hears this, I have already bought one

JUST MY OPINION, but I think despite all of us non japanese speakers not understanding a word the singer is saying, I think it enables us to understand the music in a different more abstract way. I think thats why I'm obsessed over this stuff.
this song and this type of music brings back summer of 2017... got my first job and would walk to work listening to these songs. Life was happier and better then

It’s March 2020. You’re sitting inside your house, mourning that you have to be in quarantine for god knows how long. You open youtube to see this song recommended. You play it because you have nothing better to do. The more you listen, the more it calms your nerves and makes you forget about everything that is going on in the world right now.
I dont know why these kinds of songs from japan makes me feel so .. Nostalgic .. Kinda like i lived the moment and songs like this gives me those non existent memories ... Also what kind of genre is this ? Like, legit genre they call back then

80年代の文化水準は今と対して変わらないと思いますが、今よりも身の回りの空気や季節、雰囲気、流れる時間を感じながら人々が生きていたんだと思います。それが歌に反映されているのではないかと考えます。

数年前からはじまるこの旋風に心から感謝します。
I guess old Japanese people who lived1980s did not have good taste of music so this talented singer could not be as a singer after this album failed.
そうですね。バブルは終わってしまいましたけど、どんな曲も簡単に見つけ、聴く事が出来る今の時代には感謝しています。

A middle-of-the -night joke
I'll soon be inside a morning
Guess it's close... This smell
A drive all alone
This's right off the top of my head
A middle-of-the -night joke
I'm not good at getting up early
But staying up late, it depends on my mood
I'm a female who I can drive flat out any time I want
Though the same is true of love,
it's just a joke when I start a love
There's nobody and no oncoming car
I'm drifting away alone
In the case of a drama,
a guy is there when I look at passenger seat
Cool guy who I have ever seen once or twice
This's a bad joke, so stop it!
I'll soon be inside a morning
Guess it's close... This smell
A drive all alone
This's right off the top of my head
A middle-of-the -night joke
With luck, I might be able to see the sea
With luck, I'm able to forget it
I'm a female who I cry in regret after joking too much
"This is trueth," I'll be able to say that but I keep on drive
The way I am, remain unchanged

Damn! I'm starting to love 70's and 80's Japanese music
今高１やけどマジで大好きだわ
おお、タメだね👐
真夜中のドアと、真夜中のジョークは世界的に絶賛されているよね。
i myself brought me here
good job homes
Блять, даже здесь мы...
Энивей, найс джоб.
Join the club.
мы везде
Me, myself and I..
50 years from now, I'm still listening to this song for sure.
再発したころ、ニッポン放送で流れてたのを聞いた。
それ聞いてなかったら、こんなに音楽好きじゃなかったなあ。ありがとう、あの時の選曲者。
forever in love with japanese music
😐
If ya'll interested try finding the entire album "Love Trip". The whole thing is pure gold, especially the title track.
an absolute masterpiece!
I own the album on vinyl it sounds great and looks amazing watching that cat spin round and round always enjoy watching that.
i went to japan for a month, and while jogging every morning this is all i would listen to just japanese funk...so calm
UA-cam just recommends something beautiful every now and then, completely out of nowhere.
And I always love it when it happens.
JUST MY OPINION, but I think despite all of us non japanese speakers not understanding a word the singer is saying, I think it enables us to understand the music in a different more abstract way. I think thats why I'm obsessed over this stuff.
Oh yea
Agreed!
Definitely
Then you look up the lyrics and you're like, "I knew that's wtf she was singin about!"
I'm sure it makes you parse the melody more instead of the actual dialogue which is a much more musical way to interpret lyrics.
1:13 I’m not Japanese but this slaps for some reason
Lemme give you some life advice, you don’t gotta be Japanese to enjoy their absolutely bangin music.
Bruh why you need to be japanese
this song and this type of music brings back summer of 2017... got my first job and would walk to work listening to these songs. Life was happier and better then
Dark times for me but they helped me get past life
It's so cool how these songs give you such a nostalgic feeling even though there were no memories to begin with. I for some reason love this feeling.

It’s March 2020. You’re sitting inside your house, mourning that you have to be in quarantine for god knows how long. You open youtube to see this song recommended. You play it because you have nothing better to do. The more you listen, the more it calms your nerves and makes you forget about everything that is going on in the world right now.
dont worry we all got used to it and masks feel normal now i hope this ends soon
Very nice and smooth.
fell in love with this song from the first 5 seconds
I dont know why these kinds of songs from japan makes me feel so .. Nostalgic .. Kinda like i lived the moment and songs like this gives me those non existent memories ... Also what kind of genre is this ? Like, legit genre they call back then
Pandah Commander City Pop
It's just pop from late 70s and 80s I think, of course it has a very different style that current pop or american european pop from that time...
City Pop
anime
I call it "TOKYO CITY LOUNGE"💕
80年代のシティポップは深夜のドライブにぴったりなサウンドトラックだね。 🌆
I'm learning more and more everyday. This language is so beautiful!
この黒猫ちゃんのイラスト付きレコード見たことあるなぁ。回転すると猫ちゃんも回って可愛いんだよね
glad i stayed awake at 1am to scroll on UA-cam and this popped up,, i found a treasure
Buying the rerelease on vinyl was one of the best things I ever did with my money. The whole album is just so relaxing and comforting
Playing this kind of song while driving alone between 2 am-3 am it's just like you don't want to end the night fast.
楽器隊も大好き、ベースラインもゆったり洒落てて切ない
大好きです❤️ 馬鹿みたいに聞いてます。 いい歌です。カッコいい！！
I love music that makes me feel nostalgic about a time and place I've never been.
再生回数とコメント数が凄い。
しかもほとんど外国の方じゃないですか。
聴いてて懐かしくもあり切なくもあり新しくもある不思議な曲です。
間宮貴子さんは現在どこで何をしてらっしゃるのか。

Love this music. I just heard it in a band restaurant and ask what’s the name of this music and baammm here it is. Love this love 🇵🇭
The vibes are so good to listen this in the afternoon, lying down on the cough while petting cat on the lap ♡
Songs like these make me nostalgic and make me remember the wonderful years in which I wasn’t alive 😌
