This artist,Kyu Sakamoto,died as a passenger on Japan Airlines Flight 123 in 1985. The pilots tried everything but a sudden loss of hydraulic pressure doomed the plane. An announcement was by the pilot and at that point many of the passengers began writing notes/letters to loved ones. They all knew they were going to die. Ten minutes later the plane went down. Out of 509 passengers,only 4 survived.

There is an underlying context to the song- "Ue o Muite Arukō" (pronounced [ɯe o mɯite aɾɯkoꜜː]) was written by lyricist Rokusuke Ei and composer Hachidai Nakamura. The lyrics tell the story of a man who looks up and whistles while he is walking so that his tears will not fall, with the verses describing his memories and feelings. Ei wrote the lyrics while walking home from participating in the 1960 Anpo protests against the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty, expressing his frustration and dejection at the failed efforts to stop the treaty. However, the lyrics were purposefully generic so that they might refer to any lost love.

This international hit sold over 13 million copies worldwide. Released in 1961 in Japan, then 1963 in the USA. The lyrics tell the story of a man who looks up and whistles while he is walking so that his tears will not fall. The verses of the song describe his memories and feelings. The title "Sukiyaki," used in English-speaking countries, has nothing to do with the lyrics.

Dear Jim McGee, the unfortunately named "Sukiyaki Song" is one of my favorite songs of all time. My little daughter (at the time) and I sang it at my Japanese mother's funeral. I have other video versions, but yours is really exceptional. It was fun and hip with your modern out-takes at the beginning, liked the American band out-takes; and by the end, you touched my kokoro (heart, mind, spirit) with your traditional film out-takes. Majestic Fujiyama and sakura trees. Your intricate timing and inter-lacing with key punch editing/transitions are beyond the pale. The kid sliding in the snow with his dad, the dancers throughout, etc. My favorite short film of all time is now your film. My favorite word in the Japanese language is "Yugen." It means a bittersweet longing for the past. You captured It in your work. Plus the Now. The Japanese language has no future tense. Domo arigato-gozaimashita. Annie OQT

A great video! Regarding the song, I bought a 45 of it in the spring of 1963. I played it a lot for a while, but life went on and I forgot about it. In 1994, I was driving up to Sacramento on Sunday mornings and had breakfast at a bar/restaurant then owned by its Nisei bartender. The bar was filled with incredible baseball memorabilia! The food was good and fairly priced. Many of the customers were Nisei, some of them complaining about the tacky ceiling paint (and it was tacky). But this record got played a lot on the jukebox, and I fell in love with it again. It's a great record!

Esse é um povo que conheceu a PAZ, através da guerra. É um povo admirável. Parabéns à todo povo Japonês.

I remember this when I was a little kid and always loved it. Years later when I began to play piano very well I ordered the sheet music. I still have it and love it more today than I did 40 yrs ago. Thanks for posting.

I'd love to visit Japan but I fear I'm too old and skint now, never mind I can at least watch videos like this, best memory I have of Japan is the theme tune of the 1964 Olympics,god how sad is that.

This song even though I don't speak a word of Japanese I know every word by heart - It is the only japanese song to hit the top 10 in 1963- go to NPRS web page and read the history. Love this song
