I had trouble finding this song, but I heard it in that new Amazon prime commercial and his voice is beautiful and the lyrics are queer. This is going in my main playlist on repeat.
Johann Pachelbel (1653-1706) - Canon & Gigue for 3 Violins and Basso continuo in D-Major, II. Gigue. Performed by Harmonie Universelle on period instruments.
I think Tatsuro Yamashita is a junk guy. This guy is a hardcore "copyright geek" who entered Meiji University to study music copyright. One day, when the NHK Asadora opening collection was compiled, I was surprised to find that only the works by Yamashita and Maria Takeuchi(his wife) were instrumental without vocals.
He's a "perverted bastard" who keeps trying to keep him away from our ears. On the other hand, even the famous song "Christmas Eve" borrowed from Pachelbel's canon and created a nasty sound, which some people pointed out on YouTube. This is not much different from "Masashi Sada", who rolls the swans of Saint-Saens.
It is a famous story that Ryuichi Sakamoto took his ex-girlfriend Taeko Onuki, but Onuki is not stupid, so he must have noticed Tatsuro's "abnormal naughtyness". Tatsuro, you're a third-rate musician. Disappear with Johnny's.
Pro singles tip: never listen to Pachelbel's Canon around someone you just met unless you want to imagine your wedding and whole life with them. This may also apply to most classic music.
This is everything I needed since Maroon 5's "Memories" came out. "Memories" is literally Pachelbel's Canon in syncopation! I can never listen to Pachelbel's Canon in the same way every again! Ruined!
For sure I'm playing Liszt's Liebestraum. Look at this painting, anyone always had a low-key crush on this painting? This was child me's real Liebestraum, when I played its theme and was like "this is the kind of piano music I wanna play"
