GODIEGO(JPN) that composed this song was the most famous band in the late 70s Japan, with two hit singles cut from their third album “MAGIC MONKEY” becoming Japan hits and in TV shows and commercial songs that everyone lived in Japan knew them. Looking back now, their third album was the best and most fulfilling album of their all lifetime works. They debuted in Japan in 1976, when they were all in their early 20s. GODIEGO(JPN) had two keyboardists who could compose, and since their debut, they have been a rare type of band in the Japan, singing mainly English lyric songs. Based on the catchy melody of Paul McCartney follower Yukihide Takekawa, they were a very unique and creative band that mixed songs from Mickey Yoshino's arrangement of progressive rock tone to a funky jazz arrangement with horns. This trend has remained consistent since their debut in 1976 with their debut album " SUITE NEW GENESIS ", 1977's 2nd album " DEAD END " and 1979's 4th album " OUR DECADE ", and everyone who listens to the songs on these albums will understand how talented the band was. Their third album was released as a soundtrack for TV dramas “MONKEY” around 1979 in the UK, Australia and other countries, so the two theme songs were known outside of Japan. Speaking of the catchiness of the melody, progressive rock and funky horn arrangements, it reminds us of the GENESIS (UK) after " AND THEN THERE WERE THREE" that changed the tune drastically. However, " AND THEN THERE WERE THREE " was released in 1978, "DUKE" in 1980, "ABACAB" in 1981, and " INVISIBLE TOUCH " which became a worldwide smash hit album, in 1986, so GODIEGO(JPN) had made their debut and already had become a popular hitmaker in Japan before GENESIS (UK)changed its tune from Prog Rock to popular main stream. GODIEGO's debuit song "SUITE: NEW GENESIS(1976) " was a long suite that takes up the entire B-side of Godiego's 1st album LP, released in July 1976. Even listening to it now, it is clear that Godiego had already reached musical perfection at the time of their debut. Unfortunately, they were unable to sign an official contract with a Western record company at that time to make their major debut in the Western market, and since then, their activities have been limited to Japan only. I think they should have signed a formal contract for sales in the world market when they released this MOKEY's theme song in the U.K., and shifted their activity base to the U.S., Europe, and the world market. In terms of the changing trends of popular music in the world at that time, if Godiego had officially debuted in the West at that time, their musical style, a fusion of Prog Rock + Beatles roots POP Rock + Fanky Jazz fusion, would have had enough potential to be appreciated and supported in the world market at that time. It is a real shame, now that chance was never given to them simply because they were a borned Japanese band.

ほんとに上手いなあ すごすぎやろ
Love this song and the show. Long live Monkey Magic. Was a hit show in Australia
この当時生で聴いてた世代です。このバージョンいいね👍👍👍 今からしたらメチャテンポが速い！でも若さが弾けてて最高😃 あぁこうだったってしみじみ思い出してしまいます。 ゴダイゴ、ロックバンドだったんだぜ〜〜😊
この時代はゴダイゴかＹＭＯかという時代だったかもしれない。
やっぱりこの曲はスティーブのハモりがあってこそ(特にライブでは)成り立つナンバーだな、と改めて実感。
SuchmosのYONCEさんやKing Gnuに是非カバーしてもらいたいですね！
再結成MONKEY MAJIK最高❗️
What a treat! Love this album and what a performance here 🔥🔥🔥🔥
やはりゴダイゴは最高😊
ゴダイゴって日本語「後醍醐」のはずなのになぜこんなスペルなの？ゴディエゴかゴディーゴとしか読めない
「GO（生きて)DIE（死んで）GO（生きる）」と「GOD（神）I（私）EGO（エゴ）」の意味。
スティーブデケえな。

キーボードの音が素晴らしい
Excellent. What year was this?
1979
ありがとうございます
いつ聴いてもいいね‼️芸したくなるね‼️曲もいいね、踊ろう❗
ボーカルの安定感もさることながら、演奏が素晴らしい。とてもライブとは思えない
ドラム最高
😃💙🌱😣
中坊の頃夢中やった。ボーカルのタケカワユキヒデ特別カッコいいわけでもなかったけど何か魅力あったよね。あの間奏中に放つ蜘蛛の糸、真剣に欲しかったわー。
音楽的にライブのレベル、 越えてないですか？
今さながら、ゴダイゴの素晴らしさを感じます❗️2021年
動画のイラストがまた良い🥳
アレンジされてる？
志村さんも、たかしまあきひこさんも、既に鬼籍か😞 筒美京平さんも・・・、昭和がまた去ったな🥺
ご冥福をお祈り致します。
志村さんお疲れ様でした…！
志村さん早く元気になって‼️🙏🙏
髭男がカバーして欲しい
吹いた
とても1970年代の曲とは思えない。全然古く感じないもん。まだこの頃は私の両親も幼稚園児か保育園児ぐらいの時よ。
タケさん、マイクスタンド揺れまくりw それにしてもカッコいいわね〜タケさんは。
みんな上手いがベースのファンキーさが半端ない。
やっぱいつ聴いても昭和の良き名曲

So so good . Hugely underated group
このバージョン好きです。特に間奏の部分は、孫悟空が「雲」の上に乗って空を飛び回るイメージがします。
名曲です。レコード大賞以上です。
実質、作曲者は志村けん。
これをスピッツがカバーして欲しい。 スピッツメンバー、演奏上手いし。
なんでやねん。、
あらためて聞いてみるとスゲー格好いい曲だよなこれ
ギターのカッティングがカッコよすぎるW
o my god i love this
「ヒゲダンス」の曲を作られた方が亡くなられたそうです。ご冥福をお祈りします。
そうなの‼️
たかしまさんの曲が聴けなくなっちまったなぁ・・・惜しい人材だった・・・
ベースかっこいい
このアレンジ カッコイイ☆

そう、日本の音楽や文化はパクリが普通に横行してた。 今ほど権利にうるさくなかった時代に。 今は、他国にバクられたら猛剣幕で怒る。 パクられるってことは、それだけ優秀な証なのに。
