City Pop is the savior of humanity.

bass is too wild

[@TheChannel0309]

This song reminds of me of when I wasn't in the Navy back in the mid-80s and I wasn't stationed in Japan. I didn't go to a crowded nightclub one night and I didn't look across the room at the most beautiful woman that I had never seen before while this song wasn't playing. I'll never remember how we didn't dance together all night long despite never knowing each others' names.
Toshiki Kadomatsu never fails to take me back to a time in my life that never existed. So much nostalgia!

You literally lived inside this genre of music and perhaps the song itself.

If You...　(If You Wanna Dance,Tonight)
From "AFTER 5 CLASH" Released on April 21, 1984.
Lyrics, Music Composition, Arrangement: Toshiki Kadomatsu
(English translation of rough meaning of Japanese Lyrics)
If you wanna dance,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby,
Love me tonight
If you wanna dance,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby,
Love me tonight!
Open your heart to the fickle lure,
Let's dance together
The night always sneaks up on you softly while you're unaware
You get groovin',
Let's dance with the usual step, bathed in the limited crush of time.
Let's dance Under the moonlight,
It's just the time for only two of us, You and me
If you wanna dance ,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby,
Love me tonight!
If you wanna dance ,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby,
Love me tonight!
As dusk falls, The illumination that rises adorning the towering towers.
Whenever I see the twilight, a thrill starts in my own heart.
It's just time for the after 5 now.
Let's switch the mode of your mind.
Get away with me,
let's go out to the city with me, aiming at the night sky
If you wanna dance ,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby, Tonight!
If you wanna dance ,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby, Tonight!
We get groovin',
Let's dance with the usual step, bathed in the limited crush of time.
Let's dance Under the moonlight,
It's just the time only for two of us, You and me
If you wanna dance ,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby,
Love me tonight!
If you wanna dance ,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby
(Tonight!)
If you wanna dance baby ,Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby
If you wanna dance baby
Tonight
If you wanna, do it baby,
Love me tonight!

This is Michael Jackson meets prince

[@user-cu7qh9gb6j]

Кто на басу?

[@koshcheithedeathless]

Томохито Аоки, не Маркус Миллер :). Хотя Маркус Миллер, который с Кадомацу работал, тоже очень хорош. Он и с Лютером Вандросом тоже ряд добротнейших песен записал.
