    Brilliant idea and production. Perfect combination of oriental and European style in clothing dance and singing style. So funny so dynamic makes you woonder every second if you are looking at tv show from Japan or from a disco in Great Britain. Love it after so many years. She is sweet alert delicate and original. What can I say. I can not get enough of it. The story pretends to be a sad one but the performance leaves you with a happy feeling. Strange but not unusual for that era (The artists from various bands were smiling and seem to have fun and enjoy themselves no matter what they were singing about ...unless it was hard a rock band).

    This song was in the UK charts and I used to hear it every morning on the school bus radio when I was in 1st year at high school in 1981. I really miss those days.

    Mary Sandeman, better known by her stage name Aneka /əˈniːkə/ (born 20 November 1947 in Edinburgh, Scotland), is a Scottish singer.
    In 1981 she reached number one in the UK Singles Chart with her song "Japanese Boy". She was well known for the Oriental image she adopted for the song. After her brief foray into pop, she reverted to her real name and re-established herself as an accomplished singer of Scottish traditional music. This music career having begun in Scotland as a teenager and continued up until her first hit, as Mary Sandeman. It was only at the time of the 1981 hit that she changed her name.

    He said that he loved me, never would go, oh oh, oh oh.
    Now I find I'm sitting here on my own, oh oh, oh oh.
    Was it somtehing I've said or done,
    That made him pack his bags up and run?
    Could it be another he's found?
    It's breaking up the happy home.
    Mister, can you tell me where my love has gone?
    He's a Japanese boy.
    I woke up one morning and my love was gone,
    Oh, my Japanese boy, ooh, I miss my Japanese boy.
    People ask about him every day, oh oh, oh oh.
    Don't know what to tell them, what can I say? Oh oh, oh oh.
    If only he would write me or call
    A word of explanation, that's all.
    It would stop me climbing the wall.
    It's breaking up the happy home.
    Mister can you tell me where my love has gone?
    He's a Japanese boy.
    I woke up one morning and my love was gone,
    Oh, my Japanese boy, ooh, I miss my Japanese boy.
