Fuck! I waited too long to listen to this. Damn, that's now 3 City Pop artists I've listened to that have all passed away from some form of cancer. Miki Matsubara, Cindy, and now Junko Ohashi.
Japanese summers are bad. Air sticks to you and humdity is off the charts. Disliked them since I was 5 which was the first i time I went to Japan to visit family. August and Spring is actually the best season and time to go imo. It's like Los Angeles during winter. Nice and warm, but cool and snowy. Just be warned to get vaccinated while going their in any season except summer. Influenza easily spreads because of the small housing plots.
it wasn't till today I found out about her passing and it was because I was listening to her songs and wanted to know how old was she. Rest in peace, Junko. Thanks for everything, I've been listening to your music since 2018 and I didn't know you were fighting Cancer since that year. You'll be missed but I feel relieved won't have to suffer now, we love you so.
Challah Bread NYC is the quintessential image of what America is all about to most foreigners. Big and beautiful, but also scary and dangerous. Full of wealth and opportunity, but also despair and suffering. In alot of ways, NYC is as "America" as it gets.
Junko Ohashi was my musical juggernaut, when I was 13 I use to put on this very song everyday because I couldn’t get enough of it, I vividly remember rewinding this song numerous times to the point where I would never get to the ending because every point of this song was beautiful to me. Her music would always get me through different points of my life even if I was mad at the world and not happy with my current state of life, I’m now a sophomore in high school and seeing her death also pulled the plug on the music side of my life. I hope you are resting in peace knowing you made people smile with your music. Even through death your essential soul will live on and your essential music. Whoever is behind this account, thank you for helping making this women known, you are deeply in my gratitude
Her music greatly impacted my life, as well. She brightened up my days whenever I felt sad. I’m so happy she blessed the world with her talent! RIP Queen!
You are way too young to be talking about different points in your life and your love of music dying, live some more years, explore the world, and come back to music like this.
Awesome stuff! I definitely will be making a video about the drive, but also the trip in general. If you check out my channel and search "Japan" you'll find the first two parts from my Japan vlog with some friends. Editing new parts as we speak.
She died. I used to listen to her in middle school. She made a lot of my early teenhood more comforting. I hope she rests in piece knowing she made people’s lives brighter.
If you are a fan of soul music this song seems to have taken inspiration from Chaka Khan’s “whatcha gonna do for me” they sound very similar so maybe you hear a bit of her song in this and it reminds you of the past I which you heard it.
I wound up here because of a video exploring the origins of Super Mario Bros. music, which featured "Summer Breeze" by Piper as the Star power theme inspiration. I went to find that song to hear the whole thing, Plastic Love was in the suggestions bar, and it's been off to the races ever since
i remember checking about her weeks ago when she was still alive and i was so glad, but i'm now just realizing she passed away a week ago... this is making me really sad:(, rest in peace Junko Ohashi, we will always have you in our hearts and we will never forget your legacy🕊️

I love how I began to listen to city pop to feel nostalgic for times I never had, but now that’s it been so long since I’ve discovered it, I legitimately just feel normal nostalgia now. This doesn’t remind me of times I never had anymore, it reminds me of my younger self now.
I had to watch a video in engineering class explaining "why the World Trade Center went down" and the mechanics behind it. Breaks my heart. It's an engineering marvel that one civil engineer in a million gets a chance to create. Shame a beautiful masterpiece went down like that. This song and album picture makes me feel like I'm in the 80s, when the World Trade Center stood tall in the New York skyline.
I remember listening to this at a smokey jazz bar in Tokoyo during the summer of 85. I met a girl named Kiki, she was the cutest Japanese girl I've ever met in my life. We hit the town, went to an arcade, ate amazing ramen, and enjoyed the amazing Japanese scenery. She then asked if I wanted to go to her apartment and before I could answer, I woke up.
I swear the basslines from Japanese artists in the 80's completely nailed the simplicity is key aspect of Bass. Such unbelievably clean, easy to follow basslines. So good.
I hope you like it. th-cam.com/video/3IQpwn246ic/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/tT5OsO3m2lg/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/2wFVQmiqmN4/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/eOkhSpbxsoE/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/mG0PmyoHQJU/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/lr3tj-PWPoo/w-d-xo.html

Can confirm it, i found out about City Pop back in July and since then TH-cam has been recommending me more and more of it. Not that i'm complaining 😎😏🤗
Rest in peace queen 😢 you will never see this, but I still want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the countless moments of happiness that your music gave me and will continue to give me through the years

Man I remember when I first heard this song in The Group Chat between me and my friends, I always asked my friend Isaac Why he'd show me such an amazing song. Truly changed my life forever.
Geoff Smith Really. Your okay with it as long as it stays up? Then you shouldn't be okay with them taking it down......this is contradictive logic of the next level.
I remembered something i read on the original post of this song it said something like "imagine driving on a bridge on your car listening to this while the sun is just coming out and you feel the fresh air on your face" i feel it everytime
Yeah. The same happened to me so i figured i would reupload. Despite it getting content ID'ed I left it monitized and let the owners of the content get the monetization. Honestly I would rather let all of us experience this music for free and allow the rightful owners to get their rightful money for the usage of the audio. At least they didnt strike it down.
"This song is simply amazing! I can't help but feel so happy and upbeat whenever I listen to Junko Ohashi's "I Love You So". The catchy tune, combined with her sweet and infectious vocals, just gets me moving and singing along every time. The lyrics are so simple and sincere, and they really hit home for me, reminding me of the beauty of true love. Overall, this song is definitely one of my all-time favorites, and I can't get enough of it. Thank you, Junko Ohashi, for sharing your talent and creating such a timeless classic!"
I haven’t listened to this song for a while. Kind of forgot about it for a bit but when I accidentally clicked my playlist. the first two notes put a big smile on my face :)))
She may be gone but she will never be forgotten. RIP Junko Ohashi.
I don’t believe it man I don’t want to my heart hurts from this news
Omg I found out through this comment rn, I always listen to her. I can’t believe it at all
Through her music, she will forever be remembered
She's in my mega hits and introducing her to new people she will live on 🎵
i thought u were tallkin about the towers lmao
That photo was taken 17 years before 9/11.
It's been 17 years since 9/11.
Time sure flies, doesn't it?
damn that struck deep
wOAH
This is Epic
Big if true
like and share if you crei everyteim ;(
Rest in peace queen, your music will live through the ages
Just found out after seeing this comment. She’s no longer suffering. 🤍
It was just 1 week since i listened to this banger RIP

Fuck! I waited too long to listen to this.
Damn, that's now 3 City Pop artists I've listened to that have all passed away from some form of cancer. Miki Matsubara, Cindy, and now Junko Ohashi.
And suddenly, my recommendations were full of Japanese funk.
TH-cam finally gets me.
Harold Samson yeah my recommended randomly had "plastic love" in it and now I'm addicted to 80s jpop
I bet the same happened to many others, it happened to me also
it could happen to you!
Harold Samson hahahahahaha mine too
hahahaha same here
Japanese 80's funky city pop:
Killer beat
Groovy bass line
Lit sax solo
Soulful Vocal
yessir and that jazz near at the end of the song, best shit
and the towers are still there too, man I miss those times
and fire bass lines
And a big American city as the cover 100%
You forgot to say depressing lyrics
今日初めてこの曲を聴いた日本人だけど、海外からのコメントばかりでびっくり！
めっちゃいい曲ですね！
大橋純子さん、安らかに。

The Japanese didn't just love us, they loved New York. So many album covers where it's just a picture of NYC for no reason.
Challah Bread NYC is the quintessential image of what America is all about to most foreigners. Big and beautiful, but also scary and dangerous. Full of wealth and opportunity, but also despair and suffering. In alot of ways, NYC is as "America" as it gets.
Doki Doki Hamburger Club As a foreigner I can confirm that
As an American I can say that that is not what America is all about, everywhere except the big ugly cities
Generalizations and bullshit but you believe what you want to stranger

That'll be me in December :)
I'm renting a car to drive from Tokyo to Yokohama too.

She died. I used to listen to her in middle school. She made a lot of my early teenhood more comforting. I hope she rests in piece knowing she made people’s lives brighter.
The intro of this song and the cover of this album is so nostalgic to me. It makes me feel some inexplicable feelings.
Like fat larrys band Act like you know

Persobally Junko Yagami is at the tip of my list but they're all fantastic

Good delivery 😅
Said someone in 1984

So I'm not the only one who suddenly who got to a whole genre because or plastic love?

We are all the same. The algorithm knows
I wound up here because of a video exploring the origins of Super Mario Bros. music, which featured "Summer Breeze" by Piper as the Star power theme inspiration. I went to find that song to hear the whole thing, Plastic Love was in the suggestions bar, and it's been off to the races ever since
Plastic love and 4:00AM turned my world upside down and I'm so grateful.
Gurl (or man) me too
I'm Japanese. This is really 「What 'Cha Gonna Do For Me」. in '70～'80's, Many Japanese people respected American sound and life style.

Lyrics
Nigiyakana gekijō zawameku robī
A bustling theater, a noisy lobby
Yokogiru kowashi i kao
Familiar faces pass me by
Tokei ito iriguchi o kōgo ni mite wa
Looking between the clock and the entrance
Dareka o matte iru no ne
Waiting for somebody
Furimuite kigatsuite
Turning around I realize
Imademo, I love you so
Still, I love you so
Mōichido chansu o ataete
Please give me another chance
Kon'ya no konsāto anata ni aeru
I'm meeting you at tonight's concert
Yūkiwodashite kitanoni
Even though I brought along some courage
Suikake no tabako mo hai ni naru dake
I'm just smoking a cigarette, the tobacco turning to ash
Shisen wa anata o ou no
Gazing after you
Furimuite kigatsuite
Turning around I realize
Kii te yo, I need you so
Listen, I need you so
Omokage ga ima mo tsukimatō
You're still on my mind
Kake daseba soto wa ame
If I run out into the rain
Kono mama ja kaerenai. Oh.
It won't be to go home
Kakeyotte dakishimete
I'll run to you and hug you tight
Kii te yo, I need you so
Listen, I need you so
Kokorokara anatagahoshī no
With all my heart, I want you
Furimuite kigatsuite
Turning around I realize
Imademo, I love you so
Still, I love you so
Mōichido chansu o ataete
Please give me another chance
Thank you!~ ^_^
Thank you! This song is amazing!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!! Think you could do Summer connection by Taeko Ohnuki?
You’re a blessing thank you forever, this song is amazing ୧( “̮ )୨✧
imagine being japanese business man on the top floor of ur building overlooking the purple-orange sunset with the wind breeze on your face, and a mixed drink on your right hand, with this song in the back
Hmm
dem _vocals_ tho
Aye. Probably the very best that Japanese city pop had to offer, and better than much of what we got here today.
Did you also get caught into the plastic love spiral?
Hola amigo, no veo tus vídeos ni sabía quién eras pero vi que eres un youtuber famoso
smooth flowing voice. just awesome
Similar chord progression to Epik High's Fly! And flute/horn section to MJ's Rock With You!
I don't know why, but every city pop song i've heard until now gives me really nostalgic vibes from a time i didn't even get to experience, I don't even get a single sentence beyond the ones in english, and still the few songs i've heard manage to push that feeling into my heart...
It’s the power of music man. No other media can set a tone and setting like it.
Same
they all feel like summer music for whatever reason, calling back to late nights as kids in the country side. Still live here so its nice.
If you can't go to japan play Shenmue and the Yakuza games, Shenmue and Yakuza 0 are set in the late 80s, Japan obviously
Yes broth!
This music just makes me feel like i’m in love man, i just wish it was on spotify ;-;
On this lively stage
In this buzzing lobby
The side of a face I knew long ago
Looking at the time and the entrance
You're waiting for someone
Turning around
Noticing
Even now I love you so
Give me just one more chance
At tonight's concert
I can meet you again
And even though I mustered my courage
There's only ashes left of my cigarette
My eyes still searching for you
Turning around
Noticing
Listen! I love you so
Now our faces meet
I chased you, outside was rain
But I can't go home like this
Running up to you
Holding you close
Listen! I love you so
My heart only wants you
Turning around
Noticing
Even now I love you so
Give me just one more chance

Konya no konsaato anatani aeru / That I'd meet you at tonight's concert;
Yuuki wo dashite kita noni / I wish I had bravely come too
Suikake no tabako wo hai ni naru dake / The half-smoked cigar turns into ashes;
Shisen wa anata wo ou no / and my gaze follows you
Furimuite kigazuite / Turning around, [I] notice [you]
Kiite yo I need you so / Hear me, I need you so
Omokage ga ima mo tsukimatou / Even now, your silhouette lingers
Kakedaseba soto wa ame / Should I run out now, it's raining outside
Konomama ja kaerenai / If this continues, I can't go back
[Repeat]
Kakeyotte dakishimete / Running towards you, hugging you closely
Kiite yo I need you so / Hear me, I need you so
Kokoro kara anata ga hoshii no / From [the bottom of] my heart, I want you
Furimuite kigazuite / Turning around, [I] notice [you]
Ima demo I love you so / Even now, I love you so
Mou ichido chansu wo ataete / Give me another chance

Thank you very much!!!!!!

this one is definitely Junko's magnum opus, literally never get tired of listening to it, especially 2:14 onwards, used to go to school "trying" to sing that part lol
This song is painfully beautiful. It hurts because love hurts, but I like it.

Very accurate
It hurts, because of this picture

Thanks. Was just looking for that xP
You forgot to note where dat epic sax solo goes doe.
At the beginning, it says "natsukashii" (I think), not "kowashii"
~ whoa, I think I know Japanese now ~
Junko Ohashi, aunque ya no estés aquí, siempre te recordaré a través de tus preciosas obras de arte
La echo de menos todavía, fue una de las primeras cantantes city pop que conocí y una de las que más me gustan, QEPD 😢🕊👑
日本の経済がイケイケな時代。
人、物、金が潤沢にあり、心にも余裕があった。
そして、このような素晴らしい音楽が生まれた。
この時代は、音楽に限らず服、クルマの品質が高いものが多い。
Ya Bro Japan was way before developed than the whole world. Not even America is close to you guys. How many things Japanese people give to this world.
i'm here from yung kage and i'm so happy. this is such a good song.
yuh
I love how I began to listen to city pop to feel nostalgic for times I never had, but now that’s it been so long since I’ve discovered it, I legitimately just feel normal nostalgia now. This doesn’t remind me of times I never had anymore, it reminds me of my younger self now.
I had to watch a video in engineering class explaining "why the World Trade Center went down" and the mechanics behind it. Breaks my heart. It's an engineering marvel that one civil engineer in a million gets a chance to create. Shame a beautiful masterpiece went down like that.
This song and album picture makes me feel like I'm in the 80s, when the World Trade Center stood tall in the New York skyline.
Link to the video or explanation?

ニュースで知りました。
ご冥福お祈りします
RIP Junko Ohashi 💜
I remember listening to this at a smokey jazz bar in Tokoyo during the summer of 85. I met a girl named Kiki, she was the cutest Japanese girl I've ever met in my life. We hit the town, went to an arcade, ate amazing ramen, and enjoyed the amazing Japanese scenery. She then asked if I wanted to go to her apartment and before I could answer, I woke up.
Had me in the first half not gonna lie
brother cmon why u gotta get me exited for u like that
Ya didn't put an apostrophe at the beginning of '85, thats what got me being suspicious
It's a true story, I was the bar
@@wodsondasilva8664 can confirm, I was the ramen
I swear the basslines from Japanese artists in the 80's completely nailed the simplicity is key aspect of Bass. Such unbelievably clean, easy to follow basslines. So good.
yung kage, yumi, and isaacwhy - I LOVE YOU SO. they killed this sample
This song itself sampled from an American called Chaka Khan. Chaka Khans "whatcha gonna do for me". A lot of citypop is just Amercican funk/soul.
YESSS

I thought I was the only one!😅

한국의 팬입니다. 좋은 노래 많이 남겨주셔서 감사합니다
I've listened to this song while watching the sun set over the NYC skyline. I love this song as a Japanese New Yorker!
Dude, I didn't know she died recently. I began listening to her music at the start of November 😭
Me too life is too damn short 😭
I cant believe... she died one week ago. This song is even more bittersweet than it already have been.
WHO DAT BY THE BAR? YOU THE ONE FO SHO, OH LET'S GOOO, I LOVE YOU SOOO~~
YOU DAT GIRL TONIGHT

I’ve begun to listen this type of music because of Plastic Love. I didn’t notice I liked the japanese music. Just love it. Thanks, TH-cam.
It's like falling in love ,I got addicted two years back and I still am.
City pop will stay with me for life

Suddenly I woke up one morning and I realised that I needed more 80s Japanese music in my life. It was a good morning.
I hope you like it.

I love the seamless transition from vocal to saxophone!
Junko Ohashi é um sentimento. Todo seu talento e voz poderosa irão deixar falta 😢❤ Rainha do Citypop, descanse em paz!
A queen then, a queen forever. Long live Junko Ohashi 💋❤️
Her voice perfectly captures the emotion displayed in the lyrics and matches the musical tone so well. Quickly becoming one of my favorite singers.

This rare album is on sale now!

the twin towers in the background add to the beauty.
it's WTC right? before the 9/11 tragedy
correct
17 years prior to the 9/11
and just over a year until it's been 17 years since
I like it because it adds nostalgia to the song.
Man I remember when I first heard this song in The Group Chat between me and my friends, I always asked my friend Isaac Why he'd show me such an amazing song. Truly changed my life forever.
Have you been able to find it on spotify? The original song, cause i can't find it at all
9/11
@@anthonycortes868 its not on spotify
My Willy turned Soft after that happened, idk why tho
least obvious gaslighter here
I need to remind everyone that Junko Ohashi sang probably the best electro funk song from the 80s: "Dancin"....give it a go and you will adore it.

コメント欄見て改めて感じてる。
Broo this week ive been hooked by these retro japanese songs for too many times and I hope they'll keep coming
The original had over 200,000 views, shame they took it down.
Always happens with japanese music
doesnt really matter. It got claimed by the owners of the music. Im 100% ok with that just as long as it can stay up
Because the Japanese studios are fucking ASSHOLES when it comes to old school music and take down EVERYTHING.
what are you 100% okay with at that point?...
Geoff Smith Really. Your okay with it as long as it stays up? Then you shouldn't be okay with them taking it down......this is contradictive logic of the next level.
Descansa en paz Junko Ohashi 🤍
at 1:02 the way she says "so" just hits, its honestly fire.
I remembered something i read on the original post of this song it said something like "imagine driving on a bridge on your car listening to this while the sun is just coming out and you feel the fresh air on your face" i feel it everytime
I noticed this deleted from my Japanese playlist, now I know why. Thanks for reuploading.
Ashtar Commander hello hijackers
Yeah. The same happened to me so i figured i would reupload. Despite it getting content ID'ed I left it monitized and let the owners of the content get the monetization. Honestly I would rather let all of us experience this music for free and allow the rightful owners to get their rightful money for the usage of the audio. At least they didnt strike it down.
Ashtar Commander
Bro , what light you is ?
I want to list to your playlist now
hey are you the guy that who did that vrillon incident
"This song is simply amazing! I can't help but feel so happy and upbeat whenever I listen to Junko Ohashi's "I Love You So". The catchy tune, combined with her sweet and infectious vocals, just gets me moving and singing along every time. The lyrics are so simple and sincere, and they really hit home for me, reminding me of the beauty of true love. Overall, this song is definitely one of my all-time favorites, and I can't get enough of it. Thank you, Junko Ohashi, for sharing your talent and creating such a timeless classic!"
No clue why this was recommended to me but imma ride with it
"I love you soOOooO!" is the best thing ever

Thank you Junko for making beautiful music that people from all across the world could enjoy, rest easy.
I haven’t listened to this song for a while. Kind of forgot about it for a bit but when I accidentally clicked my playlist. the first two notes put a big smile on my face :)))
AHHHH I've gone down the TH-cam rabbit hole of Japanese Funk from the 70's-80's and I NEVER WANT IT TO END.
Thank you Genius, RIP ❤❤❤
The bass on this is CRAZY 👏🏾🔥🎸
I can't get enough of that *SooOOooOOOOOo* , I love it
Damn i come back to this song when i heard the news.
Rest in peace Junko Ohashi ;-;.
