SUKIYAKI BY KYU SAKAMOTO - CHORUS/ARRANGEMENT/INTERPRETATION BY ERNEST VAN-MOHR
To this date, Kyu Sakamoto remains among the few Japanese pop music singers/song writers to be well known in the world. One of his hits was "Sukiyaki" (tittle used for the world market - Ue Wo Muite Arukuo) and I remember having listened to that song in 1963 in Rome without knowing that the author was a Japanese musician. Sakamoto died in a tragic incident of JAL in 1985, two weeks after the birth of my son, in which perished more than 500 passengers. This is a tribute to his memory. I created the chorus and interpreted this song using GarageBand (a powerful program, indeed), IMovie plus M-Audio. I hope you enjoy my work.
