So underrated, so distinctive, different planet, well ahead of the game, so glad I was I introduced to this style of music..
Underrated by whom?
@@hekakain4108 a lot of music critics back in the day apparently didn't like them (until maybe Tin Drum)
David's voice here those adolescent tones sound very Bowie-esque especially hearing his London accent. 😁😊😘😍 xx
Both from the Beckenham / Bromley area of South London.
Especially from 2:09 onwards
Remember he took his name from Bowie´s song Drive-In Saturday.
i went to the comment section to say exactly the same... i wouldn't say Bowie but it was so different in those early days (maybe yes the accent)
Probably the best recording of the band from the 1970s.
Television or Rhodesia are probably my favorite 70’s era Japan recordings but this definitely comes close
Naaah , the 12 inch of European son was their top 70s track

I was previously watching Steven Universe clips.. I wonder if youtube is concerned about me
I’m 13 in the year 2023 (fri/17/Mar) and HONESTLY I LOVE THIS BAND I found them 2 days ago watching a short about one of the guys getting street interviewed about his job and I love the music soo much it is soo beautiful and makes your body move on its own!!! Can’t believe how crazy the 70s and 80s music was..wish I was born at that time but overall this band was really underrated in its 80s era.. 😖💕💗✨
Good for you!! I am just about to introduce them to my 16yo - hope she doesn't ignore me! :)
@@ginnib1418 I hope your daughter enjoys the music as much as I do 🎧✨ !!!
@@kaikasuga 🥰🥰🥰
You'll love pinterest photos
@@kaikasuga Me too!! Still waiting for the right moment!! :)
My introduction to Japan when this was a hit in Holland in february 1979. Great synthesized funky glamrock song that influenced Duran Duran's sound undeniably. Btw. Most of Japan's output is great!
So early Roxy Music influenced, along with other great artist like Bowie. I'm glad they influenced Duran Duran, but wish they wouldn't of broken up so early in their career. 😪
Agreed 😢😤😭
Roxy were contemporaries weren't they?
@@porkins_jr719 Roxy’s first No1 in UK was in 1972 - Virginia Plain.
@@somethinginteresting2202 Did not know that!
They broke up JUST before the drum machines took over, so they are forever pristine 🔥
My childhood favourite band, pure genius
you must be a very cool kid 💙
I loved this band ever since i was in 4th grade 8th grade now and still in love w them
david sylvian is the most delicate men i have ever seen in my life, he literally looks like a flower petal.
I mean he, as did Mick and his brother Steve, grew up in a very rough part of Catford in South London. So going around with long hair and makeup he would have to be able to look after himself.
Could easily lead to a bad night after a few beers.
That doesn't sound very masculine
@@eddiemichaels6285 someones insecure
@@eddiemichaels6285 nobody cares eddie. The world does not revolve around you I thought it was quite obvious by now but looks like you still lack some knowledge 😊
Still have this album...classic. Found it in the import bin at my neighborhood record store 1978.
Dang this sounds modern for it's time! It sounds like a early 2000s alternative rock song with a 70s string synth.
Japan were ALWAYS ahead of the pack. The '80s are littered with pale imitations of them!
Definitely, I kind of get Franz Ferdinand vibes from this song.
It's because they've been copied ..
Fr
Exactly. It basically sounds like Ok Go
I forgot how I obsessed I was with this band.
GREAT song! david sylvian looks FANTASTIC!!!!!!!
best japan song and best era of band
RIP MICK KARN 😢😢😢😢😢
The only bassist
Huge loss
💜
Until today I listen to music from Richard Barbieri. Great musician!!
PK love gis work with porcupine tree... what else is good?
@@hermanhelmich his work with Porcupine Tree is indeed fantastic!! I also like his solo work, like this:
ruclips.net/video/YEUZtutCahE/видео.html
Porcupine tree are amazing rock band
Played this song 100s of times, never seen this.. Brilliant
Same
Not their greatest tune but they were still developing towards the unique Japan sound.
Proper working class band. Made it from nothing. Just pure determination and talent.
The bass player had purple hair years before the current trend of Purple, Blue and Green hair. Ahead of their time! And Sylvain had Blonde hair most Women would envy or be jealous of. Unreal!
Sylvian was a straight out of the box pop star
Yes, the perfect pop star. This period and the more sophisticated later stage.
A thinking persons POP star
Was David Sylvian nick rhodes' hair stylist?
He copied absolutely
Form of flattery
Nick Rhodes is David' s Avatar
No just his major influence
I saw them live in 1983 at Lancaster University. Utterly superb!
Must have been 82 because they split in December that year.
Yes, you're right. It was the Sons of Pioneers Tour, and I still have the T-shirt to prove it. It still fits and has worn well during the last 42 years!! What I remember so clearly is Mick Karn's 'crab' walking around the stage. They all had great stage presence.
That long hair is fabulous!
david's voice is so addicting to listen to oh my god. whenever i listen to this song i think of the vampire Lestat de Lioncourt, hah thats probably just me.
SAME, IS NOT ONLY YOU
Classix Nouveaux were a great act and deserve more respect from the music world. They were both innovative and energetic, but just didn't have the adequate support from their publisher/distributer. It's possible that egos would break up the band anyway, but they should have been encouraged to go on for a few more albums, and properly marketed too.
They could of been the greatest glam band ever had they not changed
...and thank goodness they did change. Glam was already becoming a festering corpse, and if they hadn't changed, many people would likely never have heard of them as they get lost in the glam graveyard.
@@Teeb2023 honestly yeah new wave was the move
There wouldn't be "Quiet Life" & "Gentlemen Take Polaroids" albums had they not changed...
@@Teeb2023 After Ziggy Stardust died the rest of glam rock was doomed to change .
could have*
David sylvian is the most beautiful man too walk this earth absolutely stunning
I love his hair...amazing !
Suddenly I had this tune in my head ...
Is funny and cool to see these guys playing this kind of music after the Tin Drum album :)
Love this tune,ageless.
Hard to believe this is the same band in 1980 onwards
Very good track
This is post-punk perfection!!
That's clearly glam rock more than post punk.
Tin drum is post punk
@@sakshyamghimire6435 Yeah, Polaroids and Tin Drum are their only two real post-punk albums, with Quiet Life being a bit of a hybrid between glam and their later synthesized art-rock/post-punk sound
@@sakshyamghimire6435 that's synthpop
that's synthpop
@fernando m replying to all of you... I have always been of the opinion that Japan stand out on their own and... I find genres, lazy, limiting and puerile.
AWESOME! Back 2 the future. Still rocking in 2020!
I had girllfriend who looked like him........
I would date your girlfriend... *maybe*
you dated a blond rat with lipstick?
I said Girlfriend !!!!
rats can be girlfriends too
i'm jealous
Great Bassline intro.....
Does anyone know if Japan were The Godfather’s of glam rock/new wave? The first new romantic wave. Sounds as good today as it did in the 70s
T-Rex = Glam Rock / Japan = New Romantics - although David Sylvian certainly did not like the band to be included in the movement, he hated nothing more.
@@billyjoefrancis Tbh he absolutely hates everything about Japan. It kind of is fascinating too, seeing how perfectly he fit into this fanciable, sexy pop star mold but had absolutely zero personal inclination towards any of it. The guy literally went the "fake it till you make it" route. Although tragic that they all broke up when they did make it and were at their peak.
@@EnnuiOn man he should have more respect for his early days his voice has no charm. He looks like a near grandpa (I think he is) and all of his charm just went away in 1986 like all of it.
@@isuckatthesegames7119 He's almost 64, so that does make him a grandpa now :D
And even though people consider his 80s work to be his best, imo his later works are also noteworthy, despite him steering towards a different, always evolving style more and more. I'd say the Dead Bees album is on the same level as Beehive or Gone to earth, and he put out some awesome stuff collaborating with Robert Fripp in the 90s. I do wish he wasn't so dismissive of his Japan days though.
@@EnnuiOn Holy the last time I listened to them he was 61 it feels like last month still!!!!
Japan and Ultravox were the real link between Bowie and Roxy and the New Romantics.
Oh agreed
Magazine ,Japan, original Ultravox with John Foxx links perhaps
Saw a pic of one of the guys on pinterest and I KNEW I had to listen to them - So good!! Been listening to them for a year now :)
Oh Gawd
This Anime Garbage Now Here
David sylvian my beloved
this is so good
He is beautiful in all senses!
Gorgeous David is 61 now, mind you I'm no spring chicken anymore - love this song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks for sharing
I'm 61 as well. Remember buying this album. No idea where the time has gone!
David was a very good dresser. I haven't seen one vid with him having tasteless or tacky clothing even for those years.
Timeless perfect song!
Love Mick and Rob in this clip ❤ they just look so cool.
MADE MY DAY
David Sylvian was a femboy _way_ before we ever had that word
help so real
He forsaw your wonderful world of living through Pornhub and social media hashtags, no doubt.
Bro invented them
Very true. Though that can be said for a lot of artists in the 70s Glam or the 80s New Wave scenes
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING
Why Duran duran didn't make a cover on "thank you"..??
This guys made Tin Drum, unbelievable...
Totally different band back here
Yeah, only 2 years later.
Classic Japan 👍
Wish men still looked like this when men were real men.
I feel you
...real men are still real men Lynda, either looking like David, Mick, Steve, or me in 2022. So, if you have the opportunity, join my party 'What!' in Rotterdam in June...
No tattoos or hoodies, just pure smart, exquisite fashion and glamour.
I'm straight ... But I would ...
Big bad Sylv
Quality upload, many thanks
Japan just shot up to my fav band ever
クワイエットライフ以前の映像は貴重です。
My fave song from Japan didn't know it was a single
DAVID SYLVIAN IS SO GORGEOUS OMFG
Oh yes, still remember this song... Liked it back then, like it in 2023!!!
So odd seeing them look like this. But I still love 'em.
Difficult to believe they came out with Tin Drum only a couple of years after this.
Happy Late Birthday, David Sylvian 💗
Before Japan were Japan
fav!
This sounds like an arctic monkeys song. Dang they were ahead of their time
david looks seductive here
可愛すぎる
お母さんが学生のときファンで私も好きになった～
あ！そうですか？わたしも大好き！
@TopPop ; Ik weet zeker dat er tijdens de opnames van dit studio-optreden twee versies zijn geschoten. En ik ben er redelijk van overtuigd dat de andere versie (die mét het intro en andere zang, ander ritme in de refreintjes en andere details) destijds is uitgezonden. Waarom hebben jullie ervoor gekozen om deze online te zetten en niet de iets langere, maar ook mooiere versie.
Voor alle duidelijkheid, ik heb zojuist op RUclips die andere TopPop versie gezien, dus ik ben niet gek. Ik begon me er al in te berusten dat ik waarschijnlijk het een en ander door elkaar heb gehaald. Niet dus. Die andere versie bestaat. Vreemd. 😳
Pretty women ❤
Fun fact - David Sylvian was asked to be lead singer for King Crimson before Adrian Belew.
These guys played LA in 1978. They may have influenced the whole LA Hair Band genre by accident.
I was actually thinking that watching this.
After the New York Dolls but before Hanoi Rocks
I love this song but it may "borrow" from John Lennon and Elton John's "Whatever Gets You Through The Night" and Sly Stone's "Take You Higher " ..
A little bit .. though I could be wrong.
Everything borrows, from something.
1978 sounds like mid 80s romantic synth pop
Maybe a more refined New York Dolls…..
he’s so 🥺🥺
SLAYYY DAVID
本当女の子みたい。ゲイの憧れあるね。
Same 😭
So young, and can't believe that is David singing.
I didn't know Martha Stewart was in a band. She lost some weight.
Great song but the wrong version! The re-recorded version from the Assemblage album is much better.
I'm not sure if this is the version you mean, but they did another version of this song on the same program (and on the same day). I know, because I will always remember the day I saw it when it was broadcasted and it made such a huge impression on me for many reasons. And some of the musical details that spoke to me are not on this recording. I miss the intro, David sang differently and sounds were just missing. And (very important) the chorus was sung rhythmically different.
I just found the footage of that other performance. Watch this:
ruclips.net/video/HwTMBGS_qkY/видео.html
I’m learning micks Bassline 🤤🤤
cool
dude if you have the tabs for it can you please share bc im trying to learn it too 😭
Q: Who did their hair? Was it all DIY jobs, or was there genius hairdresser in London who was able to give pop stars such unique styles?
As far as I know David (singer) did his and Steve’s hair(drummer) I’m not sure about the other members but I know David did his own and Steve’s hair.
@@dm.ackermann8499 Wow, how do you know? Where/how would a (teenage?) boy learn such advanced (?) hairdressing skills? We're talking bleaching/colouring.. as well as the (iconic) cut itself.(I'd be too paranoid of f**king things up w a DIY job - especially since the look of the band was so important.)
@@Andybaby
Because they had the confidence to do their own hair and make up and probably little money to pay at the time .
The Amateur look was probably part of the image by accident Tin Drum is more refined
Very underatted band though I'll admit I'm more familiar with this era of the band than the more full blown 80s output.
Also yes David is very gorgeous here
Why are you styled like Our Dad's Cultures ?
Someone else also is further Up ?
The Fvck are you all pretending to be how we grew up ?
Before he awitched to the more commercial Brian Ferry voice, they look like New York Dolls here, only with the excitement and flare missing.
Wrong audio. This is the album version. It should be the single version....
Finally found my favourite band! Got to navigate a lot of porn to get here. Had the vinyl album way back!
Congrats! This will definitely rub you the right way..
I want to watch this video clip for the rest of my life and then after
Well the 80’s had to begin somewhere new wave ushered it in and carried it to the early to mid 80’s
It's the first time I've seen this cool Japan.
Japan are my favorite band… mick is so cute 😍😍
whats on the pin davids wearing?
Japan badge I think
Funny watching this very young Japan whom had not fully developed at this point.......But they were good, Mick Karn was the best.
Je connaos mal JAPAN. Pourtant je les ai TOUS ! C'est vraiement bien. Excellent synthétiseur ici
he’s so real
Japan must Musik alternative 80 s
He is hot!
David Sylvian is looking like a Bleached-Blonde British version of David Johansen
Huge influence
