One of the most beautiful songs I ever heard was:

“Sukiyaki” by kyu Sakamoto. I don’t think the song actually has anything to do with the dish Sukiyaki. They probably just picked it out for a name. Kuy Sakamoto is deceased but he sure gave us one fine song.

The Japanese title is “Dark”. He sees darkness because of his tears.
