People, you weren't born in the wrong generation. It's much better now. All of this music is now at your fingertips, in the best quality! Back in the day, the friggin' dark ages, you would have missed out on so much of this good stuff, because it would be that much harder to know about, discover, or even buy.
Yeah, information aplenty, we'll never know how it is to be super-rich in the middle of the bubble, driving a cabrio into the sunrise by the seaside, in Tokyo Bay, after a night of passion with a young and lively lady whose first interest is having mindless fun. The sea breeze in your hair, the empty road, this music playing... (EDIT: I hadn't read the translated lyrics before I told you this, but apparently it's what the song is all about!)
bro put it on with the homies. The other day i had Daydream playing in the car with one of my buds. we had never disclosed we had both heard the song but we both started singing when "Daydream" dropped lol
The best explanation of City Pop I've ever heard: "City Pop is that good Jazzy sound mixed with Jpop played in the car on a rainy night as a passenger you look out at the city lights and street lamps and listen to the cars woosh by splashing rain And know at that moment everything is okay"
Here I am a non-Japanese person, not understanding a word these 70's and 80's Japanese singers are singing yet they captured me and made me mesmerized with their songs and tunes. Totally legit and relaxing.
Having trouble uploading here but it’s on my instagram I’m hoping to order Tomoko Arans infamous album since it’s out for preorder for the first time since the 80s 😁
Look at the map before typing, Kyoto is almost in osaka, japan is big. More than 5 hours from numazu to tsuchiura and that's not even the 6th part of the road. I wonder how long it would take a trip to Kyoto
It's still a great time to be alive because you're able to find this song and experience it, if you think about it. Next best thing but I totally feel you
Every time I listen to 80s Japanese music I think of the movie My Lucky Stars, in certain parts of the film when the characters are in Japan at night it reminds me of all those good 80s songs
A middle-of-the -night joke I'll soon be inside a morning Guess it's close... This smell A drive all alone This's right off the top of my head A middle-of-the -night joke I'm not good at getting up early But staying up late, it depends on my mood I'm a female who I can drive flat out any time I want Though the same is true of love, it's just a joke when I start a love There's nobody and no oncoming car I'm drifting away alone In the case of a drama, a guy is there when I look at passenger seat Cool guy who I have ever seen once or twice This's a bad joke, so stop it! I'll soon be inside a morning Guess it's close... This smell A drive all alone This's right off the top of my head A middle-of-the -night joke With luck, I might be able to see the sea With luck, I'm able to forget it I'm a female who I cry in regret after joking too much "This is trueth," I'll be able to say that but I keep on drive The way I am, remain unchanged
Finishing up my last hour on third shift. Feeling a little tired, but I’m pushing through. Thank You Lord, thank you, Takako, and thank you, coffee. 🙏🏾🙂☕️

JUST MY OPINION, but I think despite all of us non japanese speakers not understanding a word the singer is saying, I think it enables us to understand the music in a different more abstract way. I think thats why I'm obsessed over this stuff.
So from The weekend - Starboy to Maria Takeuchi - Plastic love... Then to Miki Matsubara - Stay with me... Sometimes I think TH-cam is like that guy from Southpark. "What? He likes Starboy? Hmm... Lamps... Kittens... Leap days... Leap days?! Recommend to him 80's Japanese funk!"

this song reminds me of my crush. the last time we were hanging out (driving around with his car and talking about everything possible), we listened to Japanese 80s songs. I fell in love with the genre! I can't wait to see him again. he's currently in a military training (has been there for a year, but we started talking a month ago), but that will end in ~11 days. I can't wait to hug and kiss him again. I can't wait to hang out with him.

3 years ago I was at rock bottom. I was depressed and lost more will to live with each day that ended. My daughter was about to be born and I was out of a job and I had dropped out of college and I was just watching how uninspired my life was, so I listened to this song for many nights and allowed her to hold on to my feelings and that was liberating. Many years may pass but whenever I listen I will remember the feeling, the loneliness and being filled with yourself. stay well!
I dont know why these kinds of songs from japan makes me feel so .. Nostalgic .. Kinda like i lived the moment and songs like this gives me those non existent memories ... Also what kind of genre is this ? Like, legit genre they call back then
“Midnight Joke” (MAYONAKA NO JOKE) Takako Mamiya Released: November 25, 1982 by Kitty Records Japan Lyrics: Ichiko Takehana, Composition: Hiroyuki Namba (Sense of Wonder, ex-Tatsuro Yamashita's back band) Arrangement: Genji Sawai / Osamu Shiomura /Musicians Vocal: Takako Mamiya Keyboard: Hiroyuki Namba (Sense of Wonder, ex-Tatsuro Yamashita's back band) Guitar: Kazuo Shiina (ex-Hachimitsu Pai, ex-Moon Riders, ex-Tatsuro Yamashita back band) Bass: Yoshihiro Naruse (CASIOPEA III) Drums: Yutaka Uehara (ex-Coconut Bank, ex-Sugar Babe) Percussion: Tatsuji Yokoyama, Tetsuaki Hozoku Brass Section: Hitoshi Okano, Toshio Araki, Osamu Shiomura, Shigeru Kawashima, Genji Sawai, Mitsuru Kanekuni The additional musicians Keyboard: Akira Inoue (ex-Parachute) Guitar: Mitsuo Nagai, Tsunehide Matsuki (ex-THE PLAYERS) Others (English translation of the rough meaning of the Japanese lyrics) I can smell the dawn, I'm sure morning would be coming soon. I'm running alone on a midnight drive. It’s only a light joke in a midnight, I've come out on a midnight drive that I started on a whim. I'm not good at getting up early. But I'm fine if I'm up all through night. I'm a woman who can drive through the night, if I feel like it. I guess the same thing can be said when I'm fall in love, It all always starts with a joke in my cases Driving in the middle of the night is freely Cause there are no cars and no one to meet. My car can run freely and fluidly alone.
In the case of movie dramas, at times like this, there might be a guy next to me. He's a guy I've only met a few times and I don't know him well yet. Ah, It’s a stupid joke, going to stop it. I can smell the dawn, I'm sure morning would be coming soon. I'm running alone on a midnight drive. It’s only a light joke in a midnight, I've come out on a midnight drive that I started on a whim. Hopefully I will be able to see the ocean soon. Hopefully I will be able to forget about him.
I'm a woman who jokes too much and sometimes cries because of it. I could say that I was really serious, but it's just only a joke. Fine, I'm going to keep driving. I'm going to keep running , like just way I am. /This song is about a woman who broke up with her boyfriend and drove her car alone in the middle of the night to get rid of the loneliness of being alone and how she felt.（The song is about the loneliness of being alone, and on the other hand, the freedom of being alone, and the complex feelings of being both light and dark at the same time.) If we write out the true meaning of the title, “JOKE at Midnight”, it would be as follows 1_Driving late at night, it's like a midnight JOKE 2_When midnight comes, Something about midnight makes me drive alone, like a JOKE 3_ It's like a Joke,The magic of midnight drives me to go for a drive alone. Japanese language is full of abbreviations and tends not to describe everything. Therefore, the reader must assume the real meaning and true intention from the author's background and supplement it. Japanese is such a language. Therefore, there are cases where the meaning does not come through by simply replacing a Japanese word with an English word. Japanese people consider it rude and unmannerly to directly express their feelings and desires to others.
omg i seriously love how soft and how everything she says rolls of the tongue, it's just so beautiful and she's so beautiful and perfect and her voice is like liquid gold.
next is Hold Me Tight by Rajie call me back when you can't stop crying and thinking of a mo-cap animated black man with a sexy voice who claims that you cannot handle losing.
1980’s japanese music is a gem we need to preserve. i don’t understand a word she says but this calms me from my anxiety extremely quickly we need to keep this forever
Probably the most aesthetic, chill, rythmic and beautiful city pop track ever made, so unfortunate that takako only made on album and she wasn't even that well known in Japan... We gotta make sure the world hears this, I have already bought one
never thought i'd be back on this train again. i stopped back when youtube's algorithm for recommends got fucked around 2011 (?) definitely glad to be back
Just another reason to get out the old Japanese revision books i bought any years ago I revise Japanese nearly every day. I love it so much and want to travel to Japan sometime early next year around February to Hokkaido to meet my lover and Wife. Melissa Matsu and our two lovely children who i have not been able to meet as yet. I know the Boy 'Po' is around 10 years old, and my daughter is around 2 or 3. Love this track its a great one, really makes me swing around the house chanting Japanese Phrase's and comments, I love it. dk

A middle-of-the -night joke
I'll soon be inside a morning
Guess it's close... This smell
A drive all alone
This's right off the top of my head
A middle-of-the -night joke
I'm not good at getting up early
But staying up late, it depends on my mood
I'm a female who I can drive flat out any time I want
Though the same is true of love,
it's just a joke when I start a love
There's nobody and no oncoming car
I'm drifting away alone
In the case of a drama,
a guy is there when I look at passenger seat
Cool guy who I have ever seen once or twice
This's a bad joke, so stop it!
I'll soon be inside a morning
Guess it's close... This smell
A drive all alone
This's right off the top of my head
A middle-of-the -night joke
With luck, I might be able to see the sea
With luck, I'm able to forget it
I'm a female who I cry in regret after joking too much
"This is trueth," I'll be able to say that but I keep on drive
The way I am, remain unchanged

City of pop is a treasure from Japan
なんだろ このメロウで心地よいサウンドは・・ 俺が子供の頃の８０年代、７０年代のファンクミュージックが最近妙に心地よい。というか今の時代に聞くと今の時代に足りないものを与えてくれるような気がする。ものすごく切なくて嬉しくてワクワクするようななんとも言えない気持ちにさせてくれる。

まさに自分が思ってたことですわ。
今とあの時の最大の違いはパソコン、インターネット、スマホがないことですね。
80年代の文化水準は今と対して変わらないと思いますが、今よりも身の回りの空気や季節、雰囲気、流れる時間を感じながら人々が生きていたんだと思います。それが歌に反映されているのではないかと考えます。

海外で流行ってるって聞いて最近ハマりました逆輸入
海外の方たちがこの時代のJpopを愛してくれているように、今やレジェンドと呼ばれる英語の楽曲たちを、私も楽しんできましたが、年齢のせいか、こんなに素晴らしい音楽が自国にあるとは知りませんでした。
数年前からはじまるこの旋風に心から感謝します。
I guess old Japanese people who lived1980s did not have good taste of music so this talented singer could not be as a singer after this album failed.
そうですね。バブルは終わってしまいましたけど、どんな曲も簡単に見つけ、聴く事が出来る今の時代には感謝しています。
もうすぐ朝の中 近いわこの匂い
ひとりっきりのドライブ
ほんの思いつき 真夜中のジョーク
早起きなら苦手だけど
夜深しなら気分次第
その気になれば走り続ける女なの
恋にしたって言えそうだけど
はじまりはジョークのつもりだけ
対向車も人もいない
私だけが流れるまま
ドラマの場合 となりを見ると男なの
少しだけ逢ったことのある 渋い人
ひどいジョークねやめて
もうすぐ朝の中 近いわこの匂い
ひとりっきりのドライブ
ほんの思いつき 真夜中のジョーク
うまくいけば海が見える
うまくいけば忘れられる
ジョークがすぎて泣くこともある女なの
本気だって言えそうだけど 走るのよ
こんな私のままで

Im getting tingles man ...THAT BASSLINE
IKR MY EARS NUTTED
you can learn it.
JUST MY OPINION, but I think despite all of us non japanese speakers not understanding a word the singer is saying, I think it enables us to understand the music in a different more abstract way. I think thats why I'm obsessed over this stuff.
Oh yea
Agreed!
Definitely
Then you look up the lyrics and you're like, "I knew that's wtf she was singin about!"
I'm sure it makes you parse the melody more instead of the actual dialogue which is a much more musical way to interpret lyrics.

So from The weekend - Starboy to Maria Takeuchi - Plastic love... Then to Miki Matsubara - Stay with me... Sometimes I think TH-cam is like that guy from Southpark. "What? He likes Starboy? Hmm... Lamps... Kittens... Leap days... Leap days?! Recommend to him 80's Japanese funk!"

thanks a lot man
wait what's the title? I can't understand it and this song is such a bop
@@liaa5288 the title is "Mayonaka no Joku" in english is "midnight joke"
Thanks i need this haha
this song reminds me of my crush.
the last time we were hanging out (driving around with his car and talking about everything possible), we listened to Japanese 80s songs. I fell in love with the genre!
I can't wait to see him again. he's currently in a military training (has been there for a year, but we started talking a month ago), but that will end in ~11 days. I can't wait to hug and kiss him again. I can't wait to hang out with him.
この黒猫ちゃんのイラスト付きレコード見たことあるなぁ。回転すると猫ちゃんも回って可愛いんだよね
wow. real smooth. also makes me feel like I'm in an old school anime intro
Those feeling in different decades.
Jace Imperio for real though. reminds me of that old dragon ball outro song too.
Jace Imperio Why.
Why can't we have nice things without someone mentioning anime?
PastelLane it really shows how popular anime is, and it also shows how ignorant people are.

真夜中のドアと、真夜中のジョークは世界的に絶賛されているよね。
素晴らしい曲です。心に沁みます。世代的にはあまり変わらないと思われますが、知らなかったです。
最高です。ありがとうございます
今高１やけどマジで大好きだわ
おお、タメだね👐
3 years ago I was at rock bottom. I was depressed and lost more will to live with each day that ended. My daughter was about to be born and I was out of a job and I had dropped out of college and I was just watching how uninspired my life was, so I listened to this song for many nights and allowed her to hold on to my feelings and that was liberating. Many years may pass but whenever I listen I will remember the feeling, the loneliness and being filled with yourself. stay well!
A song that gives you nostalgia even without the memories to remember.
That what I'd like to call ageless
I dont know why these kinds of songs from japan makes me feel so .. Nostalgic .. Kinda like i lived the moment and songs like this gives me those non existent memories ... Also what kind of genre is this ? Like, legit genre they call back then
Pandah Commander City Pop
It's just pop from late 70s and 80s I think, of course it has a very different style that current pop or american european pop from that time...
City Pop
anime
I call it "TOKYO CITY LOUNGE"💕
I'm disappointed that i have come here late but happy I'm happy to finally reach this side of TH-cam.
Akash Ramesh there’s no returning now, I’ve been here for a year 😌
Akash Ramesh honestly there are many more sides like this one that you would love to see so search and be even happier

(English translation of the rough meaning of the Japanese lyrics)
I can smell the dawn, I'm sure morning would be coming soon.
I'm running alone on a midnight drive.
It’s only a light joke in a midnight,
I've come out on a midnight drive that I started on a whim.
I'm not good at getting up early.
But I'm fine if I'm up all through night.
I'm a woman who can drive through the night, if I feel like it.
I guess the same thing can be said when I'm fall in love,
It all always starts with a joke in my cases
Driving in the middle of the night is freely
Cause there are no cars and no one to meet.
My car can run freely and fluidly alone.
In the case of movie dramas, at times like this, there might be a guy next to me.
He's a guy I've only met a few times and I don't know him well yet.
Ah, It’s a stupid joke, going to stop it.
I can smell the dawn, I'm sure morning would be coming soon.
I'm running alone on a midnight drive.
It’s only a light joke in a midnight,
I've come out on a midnight drive that I started on a whim.
Hopefully I will be able to see the ocean soon.
Hopefully I will be able to forget about him.
I'm a woman who jokes too much and sometimes cries because of it.
I could say that I was really serious,
but it's just only a joke.
Fine, I'm going to keep driving.
I'm going to keep running , like just way I am.
/This song is about a woman who broke up with her boyfriend and drove her car alone in the middle of the night to get rid of the loneliness of being alone and how she felt.（The song is about the loneliness of being alone, and on the other hand, the freedom of being alone, and the complex feelings of being both light and dark at the same time.)
If we write out the true meaning of the title, “JOKE at Midnight”, it would be as follows
1_Driving late at night, it's like a midnight JOKE
2_When midnight comes, Something about midnight makes me drive alone, like a JOKE
3_ It's like a Joke,The magic of midnight drives me to go for a drive alone.
Japanese language is full of abbreviations and tends not to describe everything.
Therefore, the reader must assume the real meaning and true intention from the author's background and supplement it.
Japanese is such a language.
Therefore, there are cases where the meaning does not come through by simply replacing a Japanese word with an English word.
Japanese people consider it rude and unmannerly to directly express their feelings and desires to others.
TH-cam just recommends something beautiful every now and then, completely out of nowhere.
And I always love it when it happens.
the rare sample
omg i seriously love how soft and how everything she says rolls of the tongue, it's just so beautiful and she's so beautiful and perfect and her voice is like liquid gold.
word
再発したころ、ニッポン放送で流れてたのを聞いた。
それ聞いてなかったら、こんなに音楽好きじゃなかったなあ。ありがとう、あの時の選曲者。

Plastic love, stay with me, and now THIS. I have sworn my life to 1980 japanese funk.

That's nice now spend more time with shinji
next is Hold Me Tight by Rajie call me back when you can't stop crying and thinking of a mo-cap animated black man with a sexy voice who claims that you cannot handle losing.
Gendo Ikari STAY WITH ME , ah... i see you are a man of quality
It's raining outside i'm in my room then this music on my recoms i feel so japanese highschool right now

got taken down 🥲
Just amazing japan
Damn! I'm starting to love 70's and 80's Japanese music
Now THAT is a cute cat.
It back looks broken
1980’s japanese music is a gem we need to preserve. i don’t understand a word she says but this calms me from my anxiety extremely quickly we need to keep this forever
Very nice and smooth.
Probably the most aesthetic, chill, rythmic and beautiful city pop track ever made, so unfortunate that takako only made on album and she wasn't even that well known in Japan... We gotta make sure the world hears this, I have already bought one

So, this blew me away. The bass and horns on this are deliciously gorgeous !
Who's here from TH-cam recommendations?

Here! Arigatou TH-cam!
yep, we're here!
if only orwell could join with here, what would he say about the telescreen-tube?
never thought i'd be back on this train again.
i stopped back when youtube's algorithm for recommends got fucked around 2011 (?)
definitely glad to be back
Arief Aryo Prakoso Nothing he would be too busy grooving to Japanese Funk
i love this song sm
Fancy music. Lol. You really enjoy this!
Playing this kind of song while driving alone between 2 am-3 am it's just like you don't want to end the night fast.
大好きです❤️ 馬鹿みたいに聞いてます。 いい歌です。カッコいい！！
当時は知らなかった。掘ってUPした人に感謝します。
Love trip is such a love trip, I love love trip so much, I wish I have that kitty vinyl...
yup I'm listening to this, feeling cool as can be. pure vibes. new favorite genre: late 70s - early to mid 80s r&b from the land of the rising Sun. ✌😎
It's called City-Pop
Hana Tsurumi 鶴見ハナちゃん I knew that already. :)
dealt well then why didnt you say it? lack of saying it clearly exhibits you didn't know it
It's actually a combination of several genres, from R&B to jazz to electro to soft-rock.
whoa chill
Just another reason to get out the old Japanese revision books i bought any years ago I revise Japanese nearly every day. I love it so much and want to travel to Japan sometime early next year around February to Hokkaido to meet my lover and Wife. Melissa Matsu and our two lovely children who i have not been able to meet as yet. I know the Boy 'Po' is around 10 years old, and my daughter is around 2 or 3. Love this track its a great one, really makes me swing around the house chanting Japanese Phrase's and comments, I love it. dk
Danny Arthur Good luck with that :)
Japanese yacht rock! Amazing!
Amazing!
