David Sylvian & Ryuichi Sakamoto - Forbidden Colours

[@lynettepaulsen7119]

RIP Ryuichi Sakamoto. Such a great loss. A true legend. David Sylvian gives such an emotionally moving performance.

[@lysandrabarradas4926]

this song by Ryuichi Sakamoto is a fraud. He stole the melody from a Brazilian called Vinícius de Moraes. the original song is called "Pela luz dos olhos meus" in 1976

@@lysandrabarradas4926Let it go, dude! This is the third identical post you’ve made on this video! Even David Bowie and the Beatles “borrowed’ from the shoulders of previous great musicians. In fact, this is exactly how anything and everything evolves over time including science. How do you think we ended up rock in the fifties unless someone borrowed from someone else and blended it with something else? In fact there’s a guy who created an algorithm to produce every imaginable melody possible and saved them on a hard drive to prove just this point. Does that mean we should just stop making music now seeing that that guy already “owns” those melodies on his hard drive? 🙄

[@thelwulfeoforlic6482]

@@lysandrabarradas4926​​⁠- Having listen to “Pela Luz Dos Oculares Meu” I have to say you are talking complete bollocks, at best Sakamoto lifted 10 seconds and even that is transposed; get a Ryuichi’s is a completely different (and vastly superior) track!!!

[@rachelar]

​@@lysandrabarradas4926ok I listened the first few seconds very similar but less notes, then a completely different song. I have an MA in Music, I'd say it's coincidental

[@niallmcdonagh1093]

I'm pretty sure that my fascination with Japanese culture started with this song...in my 20s...I'm now 62...visiting Japan next month for the first time...wish me luck!!!

@@lysandrabarradas4926Wow! You must’ve REALLY hate Ryuichi Sakamoto because this is the second identical post you’ve done on this video. Cool, I will simply copy my response to you as well. would say it’s heavily inspired by the intro melody of "Pela luz dos olhos meus" but it’s definitely not a rip-off. By your measure practically NO new music would be allowed to be released. Every great musician has let themselves be inspired by others and many of them even use the word ‘stole’ to describe their action. It’s what you do with what you’ve stolen that either becomes a copy outright or evolves into something new. Let me ask you, do you like Hip Hop because it’s unabashedly based around stealing loops from others and building new beats around them?

[@Jumpoable]

I hope you enjoyed Japan, sir. Did you visit Tokyo, Osaka & Kyoto, & perhaps the ancient capital Nara with the friendly deer around the temple grounds?

I have been so lucky that I have seen live concert of both David Bowie and David Sylvian during 80's.

[@estupidowario]

You're a lucky person, I only could seen Alva noto (Ryuichi's side project along another musician); and Kraftwerk in 3D

Great comment. I want the movie (now)

[@niallmcdonagh1093]

One of the few songs I know that brings me to tears ( after a few) both acoustic and vocal..still can't figure out after 40 years which I prefer...

[@seanwelch71]

Most beautiful music I ve ever heard. Voice of david sylvian is great en very authentic I love this song and his voice

[@krisscanlon4051]

I hear this song now and became aware of it in 1984 at age 15. To back up I have anxiety and alcoholism that started in conjunction fully by 1993. The anxiety since i was 11 and I suppose the behaviors of an addict since before that... 1st drink taken at age 24. In that time Trouser press record guide 1991 edition made myth of this single. Here I am in recovery for 4 years and picked up the pieces of the musical journey that began 25 years ago. As amazing as this song.

[@kathleentherose]

Fair play to you Kris! This song reminds me of brilliant but sad times too. I hope you are ok now. That was a brave thing to say. Have you seen the real version of this song? The Japanese composer. It's beautiful. I'll put the link here ok?? kzbin.info/www/bejne/gneckGyDj96EfdE

[@debbieverhoeve6096]

Good for you!!! I've had anxiety since I was 14 and started drinking at 17 when my Mom died. I'm still at it, the pain of her loss and the anxiety are too much to bear without it. Hope you're still sober!

[@ruffnek2072]

Debbie Droog dont believe the lies of alcohol. Its been a struggle for me too. But all the pain weve gone through doesnt have to be relived. Alcohol lies! It tells us to continue to feel the pain forever, yet be numb. Please reach out. You can and will overcome. And your mom will be proud of you from above. 🙏🤗🙌

[@nujoy2732]

You guys are so unappreciative of what god has given us. David Sylvian's voice is a blessing. Of course, this song could survive without his vocals, but saying his voice DETRACTS the song? Wow, bold for people who probably couldn't hold a note.

[@jeffs1642]

This man is unique voice of the true greats of music has spanned the decade late 70s till now

[@jeffs1642]

Jeff Smith r is always right in de speak of today

the song is in itself is gorgeous, but sylvian's vocals take it to a whole new level, still have my original 12" vinyl copy and it sounds amazing
