yep and it's even more sad when you realize she was probably struggling herself in accepting her death when she was leaving her son in this world so young. Which is what the lyrics are about in this song it seems.
@@Reckno64 It seems like the best have the shortest life spans and die young including Jimi Hendrix, Karen Carpenter, Bruce Lee, Teresa Teng, Yusaku Matsuda, etc.
@@wtom04 i'd like to add kim jonghyun, you probably haven't heard of him but he was a south korean singer who passed away in 2017 at the age of 27. he had a very beautiful voice, definitely recommend listening to some of his songs
Currently dying of cancer and it really blows, but this song it very special to me. I feel like I'm saying goodbye to the children I didn't get the chance to have.
It's not over on the other side and, in fact, I believe more will come your way. I believe you lived hard but also got a fair share of joyous moments so I can safely say you truly lived a life. The world will remember you.
all i can say is, i’m sorry the world did this to you. we’ll all remember you. i’m sure you fought hard. don’t think of this as losing the battle, think of it as winning eternal peace.
Sad that the singer of this song died of cancer at the age 46. It's a sad coincidence that you ended up getting the same fate as her. I feel sorry for you about it.
I never knew you, but I just want to say I'm glad you were here on this Earth to experience beautiful music like this and hopefully live a good life and meet many people. I wish you all the best of your remaining life, friend! ❤

Guys it’s about her (CINDY) knowing she will die soon and she is very sad That she has to leave her son (which was very young at the time she died) in the world without her. And she wished she could change the future but she couldn’t. She dedicated this album to her son.
a time in Japan during the 70s and 80s where the economy boomed. This caused most households to have extra cash. No wonder Japan had the time to make such good music during this era!
She worked with Tatsuro Yamashita from 1986 to 1989. She was mainly in charge of chorus for recording and concert tours. During this time, Yamashita completed two original albums "Pocket Music" and "Boy in me" and toured 75 times. Her singing voice can be heard on his live album "Joy". from WIKI Japan Did Tatsuro stimulate her potential? After four years under Tatsuro's guidance, she created such a wonderful tune in 1990. thanks a lot for uploading this hidden gem.
Every time I listen to this song while walking to my classes it makes me giggle a little. Just because I get the feeling that everyone around me think I'm listening to like Rap but i'm actually listening to this instead. :)
The blue sky hides in the clouds Even if the buds wither If there is a small fountain I can start it again and again Continue without fear Believing in us In the valley of a cold building Your voice is heard I'm sorry but In tears I do not even have the power to change the future But your heart hurt If you can lighten it For you ... Calling from far away I was struggling but screaming Depending on your voice Because I will go there without hesitation Come to teach me without giving up Believing in us All about fighting Keep telling stories I'm screaming tears away. I do not know the meaning of the word But Your voice With the pain brought Do not forget sorrow Forever Where are you? You are still a small child Who will protect you? Is not it? Even if you get hurt I love you Believing in us The sad days were there I can not remember anything That such a day will come Without hesitation
I love this song that I just discovered! I left Japan in 92 and didn't have the chance to hear of this back then. Sorry to hear that she has passed. RIP.
Her voice sounds more mature than most of the other females that I've heard singing City Pop. Words really sound that of a mother, which makes the song more beautiful. The album was released in 1990. Maybe she knew about her condition back then, and decided to sing a song that would not make her child feel alone in sad, lonely times.
I wish i was a teen in 80’s in Japan. It’s such a vibe. If any japanese people reading this I want you to know how much i admire your culture, country, foods, songs, animes… I wanna visit Japan so much i hope i will do it some day🙈 so much love from Turkey xx💕
This started out from a random play of "Plastic Love", and now here I am, on my 4th city pop track while doing some paper work. My friends think I have a weird music playlist, where it jumps from electronic dance tracks to these suave city pop songs. To be honest, I'm always going back to my city pop playlist to unwind my stressed out mind. I'm currently working on my dissertation, and it's almost midnight, but I'm not drowsy yet. This music has helped me cope up with my introvert attitude, to still smile always, even though the everyday "slavery" type of living is killing my soul. Thank you city pop and to the other music that I listen to. You are my savior.
Listen to Momoko Kikuchi she’s another Japanese city pop singer from the 80s and 90s but still makes music at 53 years old. Listen to Glass No Sogen by first.
Cindy truly is a woman of mystery. So little is known about her besides the fact that she created so much beautiful music for us to enjoy before she left. And I guess, at least for now, we'll have to be content with that.
I know there's great Future Funk mixes out there. You enjoy those, and it leads to the original. Often, that's where you really fall in love with a song...
I don't know why I always feel like crying when I hear this song. Maybe it's because of how beautiful it sounds, the fact the singer passed away when I was 1 year old, or both.
I really like Japan, from human traditions and even songs of life from the 70's and 80's. The melody is gentle and catchy. Just listening to it, just swaying along, immersed in the music. CINDY's voice is amazing. Thank you very much

OMG!! YOU ARE MY NEW BEST FRIEND IN THE WORLD!! Now I can sing along to it while I drive and and those bastards around me with hippity hoppity trash staring at me in confusion.
I've been trying to find this singer since I heard her sing an anime theme song (Urusei Yatsura) when I was a child in the 90s. There's some sort of sad nostalgic sweetness in her voice that floats my boat. Thank you for uploading.
Mayumi Yamamoto "CINDY" was born in the Kanagawa prefecture in May 5, 1958. She started her career in 1984 with the single "Chance on love", followed by 3 studio albums and a compilation album. She was also a lyricist and composer, notably working with Miho Nakayama. Cindy died of cancer in Los Angeles in December 17, 2001. RIP Cindy. You are missed.
@@Amira-ct3ud are you for real? Theres not much info about Cindy, not even live footage. You should share some info about her with her fans. Did she really had a son? Is there any photo or video of her you could share?
It’s weird you cant really find any info on her. This song had a huge impact on me. I really enjoyed listening to this song and then album. I listened to Love Life, and Don’t be afraid. There still more to discover. Including her singles and features. There’s one hidden gem that I really like and it’s from an album called tower of love. The song is touch the sky and I really love that song. I want to see more of her discography and listen to more of her songs. Her voice is one of kind especially since she can mix English and Japanese really well. I just been rambling on but I’m grateful I found this song and the albums she’s created throughout her time. Thank you Cindy or Mayumi Yamamoto
I'll be listening to this forever again and again ありがとう mysterious woman your music is a gift and treat to listen to after a long stressful day rest well.
What a voice (ok, there is some reverb effect but, wow)... So many good tunes of the past in french, japanese, spanish and other languages we are able to discover thanks to people sharing on internet...
All Japanese City Pop songs made me dance no matter how happy or sad they are. It's just the beat so good and I don't understand the lyrics but heck it's on point that I'm doing disco dance
Dude even though i came across this song yesterday i love it so much already and have listen to it on repeat more times then i can count but as i was reading the comments i found out that she had died of cancer, She had so much potential and a beautiful voice.

CINDY, born unknown, age unknown, Died December, 2001
It's mysterious, how the internet doesn't even give away most of her career as a composer-singer.
I find it really strange how you can't find anything about her online. and considering she did music for Urusei Yatsura it is even more strange.
hey thank you for liking. this is my old channel so i don't use this. but the only thing that i know about her is that her real name was Mayumi Yamamoto and that she dedicated this album to her son Gene

Asuka Yosano the funny thing is that the song itself is really sad
@@iiperplexed3136 What's the song about exactly?
is that akiko yosano in your profile pic?? :o
@@thetruej7872 same question
Guys it’s about her (CINDY) knowing she will die soon and she is very sad That she has to leave her son (which was very young at the time she died) in the world without her. And she wished she could change the future but she couldn’t. She dedicated this album to her son.
最近、この曲を知りました😂一度聞いて、大好きになりました🎉ありがとうございます😂毎日、聞いてます😂
最初のイントロが好きすぎる
I'm going nuts. I can't stop listening to this song.
Who else started out listening to plastic love and the ended up being addicted to this kind of music every since? Just me? Ok
Songs from the bubble era are amazing!
yesss!!!
what is the bubble era please?
a time in Japan during the 70s and 80s where the economy boomed. This caused most households to have extra cash. No wonder Japan had the time to make such good music during this era!
More accurate from the mid 80s to early 90s
Then 1991 came and Japan suffered a state of depression it never really recovered from.
Just somehow it makes me cry while listening to this, knowing that she has passed away and left this for her son...
知られざる神曲
I hope her family knows how much people all over the world love her music today.
She worked with Tatsuro Yamashita from 1986 to 1989. She was mainly in charge of chorus
for recording and concert tours. During this time, Yamashita completed two original albums
"Pocket Music" and "Boy in me" and toured 75 times.
Her singing voice can be heard on his live album "Joy". from WIKI Japan
Did Tatsuro stimulate her potential?
After four years under Tatsuro's guidance, she created such a wonderful tune in 1990.
thanks a lot for uploading this hidden gem.
Every time I listen to this song while walking to my classes it makes me giggle a little. Just because I get the feeling that everyone around me think I'm listening to like Rap but i'm actually listening to this instead. :)
Gracias Cindy por haber existido dándonos el privilegio de haberte escuchado cantar con tu tan hermosa y poderosa voz, nunca te olvidaremos.
Bien dicho.
Searched her up, expecting to see that she's still alive. She died 19 years ago. I'm sad now. Glad you live on in your music, CINDY ; _;
4:19 when the back up singer goes in with the harmony I get chills, best part of the song
CINDYの曲は長くても長く感じさせないメリハリのあるメロディと心地良さがある。
이 노래만 들으면 천국에 온 기분이다.... 야마모토 마유미님 지금 전세계의 사람들이 당신의 노래를 듣고 있습니다. 하늘에서도 행복하시길.... 명복을 빕니다.
She died dude with her children
This music is 30 year-old, but it's a new song to me. I start to fall in love with this in 2020
한국인 발견
굿굿
The blue sky hides in the clouds
Even if the buds wither
If there is a small fountain
I can start it again and again
Continue without fear
Believing in us
In the valley of a cold building
Your voice is heard
I'm sorry but
In tears
I do not even have the power to change the future
But your heart hurt
If you can lighten it
For you ...
Calling from far away
I was struggling but screaming
Depending on your voice
Because I will go there without hesitation
Come to teach me without giving up
Believing in us
All about fighting
Keep telling stories
I'm screaming tears away.
I do not know the meaning of the word
But
Your voice
With the pain brought
Do not forget sorrow
Forever
Where are you?
You are still a small child
Who will protect you?
Is not it?
Even if you get hurt
I love you
Believing in us
The sad days were there
I can not remember anything
That such a day will come
Without hesitation
Thanks man
Thanks for the lyrics
thanks
this was for her son noooooooo
Idg the last verse... What does that mean though, really?
Such a unique and distinctive voice💖 love her Rip love
39年間この名曲を知りませんでした。
youtubeありがとう。
I love this song that I just discovered! I left Japan in 92 and didn't have the chance to hear of this back then. Sorry to hear that she has passed. RIP.
너무 좋아요^^
Her voice sounds more mature than most of the other females that I've heard singing City Pop. Words really sound that of a mother, which makes the song more beautiful. The album was released in 1990. Maybe she knew about her condition back then, and decided to sing a song that would not make her child feel alone in sad, lonely times.
I wish i was a teen in 80’s in Japan. It’s such a vibe. If any japanese people reading this I want you to know how much i admire your culture, country, foods, songs, animes… I wanna visit Japan so much i hope i will do it some day🙈 so much love from Turkey xx💕
I am so glad to hear that to me,Japanese. I wish you will spend special time in Japan someday.
this is what you hear when you enter heaven
If so let me die now plzz
that'll be very comforting
Yo hablo español no entiendo nd jaka xd
Na mentira si se
I love you❤❤ hello
This started out from a random play of "Plastic Love", and now here I am, on my 4th city pop track while doing some paper work. My friends think I have a weird music playlist, where it jumps from electronic dance tracks to these suave city pop songs.
To be honest, I'm always going back to my city pop playlist to unwind my stressed out mind. I'm currently working on my dissertation, and it's almost midnight, but I'm not drowsy yet. This music has helped me cope up with my introvert attitude, to still smile always, even though the everyday "slavery" type of living is killing my soul.
Thank you city pop and to the other music that I listen to. You are my savior.
Listen to Momoko Kikuchi she’s another Japanese city pop singer from the 80s and 90s but still makes music at 53 years old. Listen to Glass No Sogen by first.
Doctor: you have only 2 minutes left
Me: *starting playing 'angel touch'"
Doctor: but it's going 6 minutes
God: I'll wait
This song gives me weird feelings, I want to cry but at the same time I want to dance and sing.
Legends always die early 💟 R.I.P. CINDY, have sweet dreams!
"Dont let me go, I'll show you a sweet dream~"
I imagine myself walking in the streets at night. The moon and the neon lights from the stores bring the light. Melancholic and in love
令和になって発掘しました。
良い歌じゃないですか！
聞いた覚えはあるが忘れていた。
Cindy truly is a woman of mystery. So little is known about her besides the fact that she created so much beautiful music for us to enjoy before she left. And I guess, at least for now, we'll have to be content with that.
I know there's great Future Funk mixes out there. You enjoy those, and it leads to the original. Often, that's where you really fall in love with a song...
i couldn't have put it any better. It's the same situation as others, Selfish High heels and Dress down was the first to come to mind.
i FOUND DRESS DOWN ON VIMNEO LOL ; IT WAS HARD TO FIND
yup
yes. THANK YOU
Totally agree! It was Yung Bae's "Bae City" that led to Junko's "Bay City" for me
I don't know why I always feel like crying when I hear this song. Maybe it's because of how beautiful it sounds, the fact the singer passed away when I was 1 year old, or both.
Or the fact the song is for her son too
Rest in peace..
Sing a beautiful song in heaven..
Rest in peace Queen...cancer.... Man that's so sad, she has the voice of an Angel
love quarantining and listening to Japanese city-pop, honestly there's nothing better than this
rip Queen and thank you for your amazing songs xx
Man!! Is it just me ..
Or does City Pop hit emotions no other genre can ❤🇯🇵
Agree with you ♡
It’s like another world discovered by only the blessed ones
Absolutely, I love so many genres, but none really hit me in the way City Pop does
i know this is spposed to be an optimistic/happy song but it makes me feel kinda sad...especially after knowing what happened to the singer :( RIP
i feel the same :(
I really like Japan, from human traditions and even songs of life from the 70's and 80's. The melody is gentle and catchy. Just listening to it, just swaying along, immersed in the music. CINDY's voice is amazing. Thank you very much
I can really feel the soul she put into this.
It's a shame she died so young. Rest in peace.
She's so beautiful 😍
青い空が 雲に隠れ
蕾たちが 枯れ落ちても
小さな泉があるなら
何度でも始められるわ
怖がらずに 呼び続けて
私達を信じていて
冷たいビルの谷間に
聞こえてるあなたの声が
悲しむだけど
涙には
未来を変える力さえないの
けれどあなたの傷ついた心を
軽くしてあげられるなら
For you・・・
遠くから 呼び続けで
苦しくでも 叫んでいて
あなたの声を 頼りに
迷わずに そこへ行くから
諦めずに 教えに来て
私達を信じていて
争うことの すべでが
物語っと 語り続けて
涙をだめって 叫んでる
言葉の意味は わからない
けれど
あなたの声が
連れてくる痛みと
悲しみを忘れない
永遠
あなたはどこにいるんの
まだ小さな子供なの
守んでくれる人は
いないの
傷ついても
愛していて
私達を信じていて
悲しい日々が あったこと
何一つ 思い出せない
そんな日が来ることを
迷わず

Translated English
Hidden in the clouds blue sky
Also fell onto their buds
If you have a small fountain
Many times I get started
Don't be afraid to continue call
We believe in
To cool buildings
I can hear your voice
Sad but delay
The tears
Not even the power to change the future
But your broken heart
If you can make them
For you...
From a long distance call in continues
And screaming even harder
For your voice
From there go in a heartbeat
Came to tell me to not give up
We believe in
Is that way
The story was and continues to speak
I'm crying tears telling
Do not know the meaning of the word
But
Sound of your voice
Bring pain and
Don't forget the sorrow
Forever
Where are you in
Still a little kid
Protect it, people would
No
It's breaking
Love
We believe in
It was a sad day
I can't remember what one
That such a day will come
Without hesitation
yumikumi2 thanks so much. I just keep singing along
OMG!! YOU ARE MY NEW BEST FRIEND IN THE WORLD!!
Now I can sing along to it while I drive and and those bastards around me with hippity hoppity trash staring at me in confusion.
Thanks!!
>im not good at translating
*translates the whole song*
BUMP
I've been trying to find this singer since I heard her sing an anime theme song (Urusei Yatsura) when I was a child in the 90s. There's some sort of sad nostalgic sweetness in her voice that floats my boat. Thank you for uploading.
now i wanna check that anime out!
Not only Urusei yatsura but also maison ikkoku by "something in the air"
A timeless song. Thank you, Cindy.
tofubeatsさんのインスタのストーリーで紹介されてて、びっくりしました。リアルタイムで聞いてました。六本木までライブも観に行きました！中山美穂さんに唄を提供していることから、辿り着いて…本当に懐かしいです。当時繰り返し聴いてました！😊🎧
RIP Cindy aka Yamamoto Mayumi (May 5, 1958 - December 2001).
Damn this song is addictive! Have listened to it everyday for a week already
That part from 4:00 to 5:00 dig so deep into our soul...
ありがとうございます🎉聞くほど染み入ります😢
whenever i listen to this song, i always want to cry
i have no idea why.
*internal screaming* nostalgia ?
*internal screaming* also love your username because that's my everyday mood
Mayumi Yamamoto "CINDY" was born in the Kanagawa prefecture in May 5, 1958. She started her career in 1984 with the single "Chance on love", followed by 3 studio albums and a compilation album. She was also a lyricist and composer, notably working with Miho Nakayama.
Cindy died of cancer in Los Angeles in December 17, 2001.
RIP Cindy. You are missed.
What!? Relatively speaking, she was just so young! Too young to die, man
oh shti i didnt knwo
lynKx :P she died in December 21 2001 I was there she’s also my aunt
@@Amira-ct3ud are you for real? Theres not much info about Cindy, not even live footage. You should share some info about her with her fans. Did she really had a son? Is there any photo or video of her you could share?
@@kelp5801 yes and sure!
It’s weird you cant really find any info on her. This song had a huge impact on me. I really enjoyed listening to this song and then album. I listened to Love Life, and Don’t be afraid. There still more to discover. Including her singles and features. There’s one hidden gem that I really like and it’s from an album called tower of love. The song is touch the sky and I really love that song. I want to see more of her discography and listen to more of her songs. Her voice is one of kind especially since she can mix English and Japanese really well. I just been rambling on but I’m grateful I found this song and the albums she’s created throughout her time. Thank you Cindy or Mayumi Yamamoto

Remembering Cindy on her Birthday today, May 5. It's sad that you are not with us, but your music is Immortal. 💖🎶
This is the best city pop I've ever heard when it comes to rhythm, even better than plastic love.. It's too eargasmic
Try listing to Momoko Kikuchi another Japanese city pop singer from the 80s and 90s. She’s in her early 50s today but still makes music.
The voice of an angel!
I'll be listening to this forever again and again ありがとう mysterious woman your music is a gift and treat to listen to after a long stressful day rest well.
When I loved plastic, suddenly i was touched by an angel
昔から名曲と歌声を作曲して、歌が綺麗です。シンディさん。まだ生きてる感じがします。
When she said "omoidasenai" I felt that 😭
I can't even understand Japanese but this song is so unbearably adorable.
This is one of the best songs I've ever herd, and I can't even understand a single word lol
Female Japanese singers in the past were ever so talented!
having a beer outdoor at night while listening to this type of music seemsgoodman
Happy Birthday Cindy. Im sure you are singing in heaven. Thank you for your music 💖
This makes me feel like I’m watching a sunset after a rainstorm.
내가 제일 좋아하는 시티팝 곡
What a voice (ok, there is some reverb effect but, wow)... So many good tunes of the past in french, japanese, spanish and other languages we are able to discover thanks to people sharing on internet...
この歌手も、曲も最近初めて知った❗️
神すぎんぞ❗️
All Japanese City Pop songs made me dance no matter how happy or sad they are.
It's just the beat so good and I don't understand the lyrics but heck it's on point that I'm doing disco dance
Thanks for taking me to another world. This song is a stress reliever. Her voice is so lovely to listen 😍
Dude even though i came across this song yesterday i love it so much already and have listen to it on repeat more times then i can count but as i was reading the comments i found out that she had died of cancer, She had so much potential and a beautiful voice.
Absolutely beautiful and graceful 😢💖
