Somewhere on YT is a video of the full performance of "Life in Tokyo". Not the greatest quality but well worth checking out. Shame the entire show doesn't seem to be available.
Fairly obvious Sylvian had had just about enough of Japan and the live touring antics by this point. 'Brilliant Trees' - a total reinvention of his career and creative direction - was on the way.
Japan/Virgin Records released a dbl LP (also CD later) & video tape Oil on Canvas, basically the whole concert, but recordings/footage from several different venues, from that last tour .
Yeah definitely...they heralded that sound in 81 and really it's almost any artist of that era could be labeled proggy new wave...Bowie Siouxsie Magazine Pere Ubu Devo etc etc
Awesome band still listen to them today
小学6年生から大ファンで、親の許しを得てやっと前から6列目を取り初コンサートに行けたのに、今日はJAPANの最後のコンサートです。」のデヴィッドの言葉に悲鳴しました。
おお！これを生で観たんですね、凄い。今と違って情報がなく、当時本当にこれで解散するとは思わなかった。人気絶頂なのに。
@@naoki69layla03
そう😭人気絶好調でした😓
デヴィッドの解散宣言が日本語だったのですが、
聞き取れなかった方々がイエーィとか言ってたのを覚えてます😅
82年12月8日か9日に中野サンプラザで観ました。その日は学校ズル休みしたような気がします。😅

学校どころではないですよね~😋

Would have been great if Japan went up until at least 1984. I think David Sylvian played a big part in what happened with the band.
The manager was playing on insecurities, telling them to go solo
Especially with Mick's girlfriend...
Yes, he was the singer and leader so of course
Mick Walk´s wow!
Beautiful band 😭😭😢😢😢😤😥😥😔😮😊😉😉😉😉😍😍😍😚😚😃
You are 100% correct.I love Japan because they were different from everybody else.such unique band.😄
As the TV talked all over the performance, I'd love to know what they were saying! But a marvellous glimpse into the past nonetheless
Honestly, the voice-over IS SO DARN ANNOYING!!!
All Japanese music tv shows seem to just talk endlessly over artists wether they’re in an interview situation or in concert .
This is great!!

I stopped listening to D.S. after Brilliant Trees.
What made you think that? Lol
@@blinksstayfresh2524 coz he wasn't obviously in the charts on totp
@@mattma96There was so much good stuff after that.
素晴らしい！！素敵です、カッコいい！！
この声は柴田チコさんかしら？？
Priceless mate
Uma grande raridade!
柴田チコさんのコメント、まだ２０代前半これからまた活躍期待と云う発言がむなしい。
Porque lo dice?
MICK KARN !!!
Excellent！
Wow did these guys get ripped off by Duran Duran
How?
memories !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wonder if the full concert is available anywhere on video?
Japan/Virgin Records released a dbl LP (also CD later) & video tape Oil on Canvas, basically the whole concert, but recordings/footage from several different venues, from that last tour .
サンディ＆サンセッツも出てたのか
david speaking japanese for a sec? kewl
最後にチラッと映ってるのって、もしかして北野誠？
A truly great band....but maybe not David Sylvian’s finest rig out.... bacofoil boy .
思い切り「どうなったの？」って最後だね♪
New Wave Prog Rock is a thing !
king crimson Belew period?
Yeah definitely...they heralded that sound in 81 and really it's almost any artist of that era could be labeled proggy new wave...Bowie Siouxsie Magazine Pere Ubu Devo etc etc
Gold dust.

The Panda incident. 😂
Oh My God!!! SHHUUUUUUTTTTT UUUUPPPP!!!!!
Totally agree! The voice-over is a pain in the arse!
Dancing panda 🤣
Una nazione intera attaccata alla tv
would of been great if they stopped talking over the music ffs
このおしゃべりがなければ・・
ツッチーのクネリぶりに､シルビアンが、僕も柔らか煮になりたいと言ってもおかしくはない、くねくね上手。なんかジャパンって音楽専科思い出すなー、べっに日本好きじゃないし、っていってたなー、柔らか煮にしちゃうぞって思ったよ。
