Jalan Jalan - Firefly Sanctuary

[@rintaroyamashita2858]

Hello everyone, I really really appreciate your comments all the comments. My dad made this song and released about a year after I was born. My dad used to take me to a small studio and I remember we enjoyed playing gamelan together though I was just a toddler. He sometimes went Bali and get some inspiration to make this song and an album with his friends. Unfortunately he stopped making music because of sudden deafness of his right ear, but his passion for music seems remained. I told him all the comments then he was smiling and joked “that’s what I expected” with tear-filled eyes. He described about the name of the song, “it’s about a sanctuary, where you can cry, feel relieved and safe”. I love you guys and thank you for your love for my dad’s song. p.s. He said he doesn’t care about uploading and just looks happy that this song is listened by so many amazing ppl. But I’d like to recommend you guys listen this on Apple Music or iTunes and hope that will encourage him coming back to musician career one day. I always appreciate comments and make sure it will make him happy.

If what you say is true, tell him that I'm grateful that he released the song and it reached so many people's ears. It's such a beautiful song in many people share that opinion.

[@regnolonnrot6388]

I am pessimistic about the direction of the world and very bitter about how things like the internet are turning out... but seeing this comment moved me and made me feel an echo of the hope I once had of technology truly connecting us globally as people and societies. Your father is a wonderful composer - please let him know that many of us would celebrate if Yasufumi Yamashita returned to music. Both Jalan Jalan albums are legendary. Thank you for this comment. I hope your dad knows how many people his music has reached. Gamelan forever. 💜

この曲まだ聴いてる人いるかな？ 17年近く前にバリ島に旅行して滞在していたhotelの部屋でずっと流れていたCD。 帰国して直ぐに買いました。 このSanctuaryが大好きすぎて今もCDで聴きます。 そして今癒しに携わっています。その時はそんな人生思いもしなかったな。これも引き寄せだったのかもしれない神の島バリ大好きです🇮🇩

Such a beautiful, beautiful song.

Truly enchanting. I clicked it on accident and I don't regret it. Brought me to tears and filled me with inspiration.

[@davidabdulsabur9678]

Yes. Hauntingly bittersweet. Sorrow and Joy all at once. Such is life. How could you not weep?

Jalan Jalan's music is so heartwarming and beautiful. I think of all our lost loved ones when hearing Jalan's music.

[@gravestonemyth]

This song is so emotional for an instrumental. I love it! I wonder if it's an ode to the synchronous fireflies found in the Great Smoky Mountains in TN. I think I need to go and see them again!

I feel very blessed I was able to find his CD tonight and I ordered it!! So happy new year will be amazing with this song in my heart!

I feel asleep to this twice and I had a dream about my grandmother who passed away. When I woke up this was playing. Originally, I heard it on cable, I think it was under sleep music or sleep sounds, something like that.

For anyone who enjoys descovering new music I would like to invite you to listen online to a public non commercial radio from Utah called KRCL. I love this station especially during the weekends and Sunday nights they play music like this. I just heard this artist the for the first time just now.

[@MrKindSailor]

So sad that they made only two complete albums.

I've been searching the internet for Jalan Jalan for years, but Google is worthless. So I decided to just search one of his songs and this came up.

Search for jalan-jalan music in yt or spotify you'll find it :)

@@nicholasa7180 thanks! and actually, I had tried that, but still had not found it. maybe no longer in existence? this album was 1999, and the sequel was 2001

I need your help community. Times are very difficult for my family right now. I am fighting every day to be a part of my sons life, yet I cant even take care of myself. My wife, the most amazing creature in this world, she tries so hard, and her soul is so pure, a true child of light, yet she's rewarded with constant misfortune. We haven't been able to make rent this month, I got laid off, and she has been refused payment from employers for work done. Now we are having to call lawyers of which we cannot afford for money that is already bespoke. I know deep inside that this is only a test, to prove our resilience to the divine. But it hurts. A lot.

[@johna8759]

I hope you didn’t give up for misfortunes always come before happiness

[@johna8759]

But those misfortunes will make your rewards that much sweeter truly
