SUGIZO / Last Night I Had The Strangest Dream 2020

A day the world will never forget. Saturday August 15, 2020 marks the 75th anniversary of the turning point of World War II. On that day the protest song "Yesterday’s dream-Oath of peace-2020" will be released.
This song is a protest song released by American folk singer Ed McCurdy in 1950.
It‘s also known from Simon & Garfunkel who covered it in their 1964 debut album.
SUGIZO has added translations and original arrangements to the song, and has been singing for fan club shows for the past 10 years.
The image of a revolving lantern circling about taken by photo journalist Kei Sato, who which in recent years has also photographed places in the Middle East, is also the representation of the media NPO, “Dialogue for people,” that changes “apathy,” into “interest,” around the world.
At the 14th Younosuke Natori Photo Awards, along with many other photographers, Yusuke Suzuki was featured for his incredibly soul-filled photos of battlefields.
Keiko Tanabe, who for many years has taken live portraits (concerts) of SUGIZO, is also a well known photographer and has had her photos shared around the world.
This is a cinematic creation also contains music that helps us look towards,
“A world that never goes to war again,” and
“A world where division has ended.”

【lyrics】
Last night I had the strangest dream
I ever dreamed before
I dreamed the world had all agreed
To put an end to war
I dreamed I saw a mighty room
The room was filled with men
And the paper they were signing said
They'd never fight again
And when the papers all were signed
And a million copies made
They all joined hands and bowed their heads
And grateful prayers were prayed
And the people in the streets below
Were dancing round and round
And guns and swords and uniforms
Were scattered on the ground
Last night I had the strangest dream
I ever dreamed before
I dreamed the world had all agreed
To put an end to war (division)

I never thought you were gonna do vocals again... I freakin LOVE those tracks from the old days such as the album C:LEAR. This song and your singing are beautiful. And I greatly appreciate how you keep raising your voice towards this kind of topic. It's crucial, but not that many of celebrities choose to do that. Please keep it up.

さっきX再結成後の動画見たんだけど SUGIZOがいてくれて本当に良かった。

[@TURBO_S.M]

当たり前の平和　平和ボケしてる日本人　世界ではまだ戦争、紛争が　平和について終戦記念日にもう一度考えよう

[@user-wp6dr1zl9n]

とんでもなく可笑しな夢... 全ての人類が本当は望んでいる夢。 叶わないと諦めている夢。 口に出すと笑われてしまう夢。 日本は戦争で大国に勝利した国でもあり、 敗戦した国でもある。 たった75年前の話だよ。 無惨な光景や犠牲を決して忘れてはいけないけど、いつまでも歪み合ってちゃいけない。 僕たちは考える事が出来る 話し合う事が出来るんだから。

[@carlaribeiro8103]

Just love for the world 💖 🖖

[@user-kc8ql4bh8u]

すぎぞーさん。ありがとう。癒された

[@shionrad3122]

This brought tears to my eyes 😢one of my big concerns, us, the world...I'm always wondering why can't we just live in peace? Is it that difficult? ....I just don't understand humans and what they want in their short period of life, anyways, let's keep dreaming 💙

[@Rei-Ai-Soumama]

素敵です… 子供たちや色んな方の笑顔って、めっちゃ素敵ですねﾟ+.ﾟ(´˘`人)ﾟ+.ﾟ

この場合 SUGIZO / 我等 而して それらは区別されない そして 絶望的であるが その望み のみ 共有している SUGIZO / 我等 が 永遠に 他生物の 命を 喰らう限り 果たされない事を 「おかしな夢」 と表現する事で 永遠に喰らい続ける 自分をも 「嗤う」
