    Served in Okinawa, 3 years, early 80's. I love the Japanese people. I learned to speak Japanese. When I heard this song and understood it, I learned to sing it. I would go to pubs with my Japanese friends and they wanted me to sing this song on Karaoke. I'm blonde and blue eyes, and the crowd got crazy. One night they had me sing that song 3 times in a row. I sure miss my Okinawin friends. 😢

    I look up when I walk
    So that the tears won't fall
    Remembering those spring days
    But I am all alone tonight
    I look up when I walk
    Counting the stars with tearful eyes
    Remembering those summer days
    But I am all alone tonight
    Happiness lies beyond the clouds
    Happiness lies above the sky
    I look up when I walk
    So that the tears won't fall
    Though the tears well up as I walk
    For tonight I am all alone
    (Whistling)
    Remembering those autumn days
    But I am all alone tonight
    Sadness lies in the shadow of the stars
    Sadness lurks in the shadow of the moon
    I look up as I walk
    So that the tears won't fall
    Though the tears well up as I walk
    For tonight I am all alone
    (Whistling)

    It hit the top of the charts in 1963. Thats right. Its one of two songs sung 100% in a foreign language that made it to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US!
    That should let you know this song touched a lot of nerves in 1963. It certainly hit mine at age 11 hearing it on the radio. Still does in 2023.

    I was listening to CZcams songs from my past, and when I got to listen to snippets of 1963, I shrieked when I heard the melody I have hummed all my life.
    Seems I was just 15 when I heard it played a lot on my little transistor radio.
    I'm now 75, and no one was ever able to help me, seeing I didn't know what year it was out.

    My mother had another version of this record in the early '40 war years. I loved it ever since I was stationed TDY in Washington Heights Tokyo Japan in the early '60s - attended the Kodokan for Judo & Waseda University where I studied Aikido. Learned enough Japanese to get around, although English was spoken making my experience more than memorable. Always remembered the kindness of Yrico Asano among many others.

    The original title (he wrote the song himself, I think) is "Ue O Muite Arukou" ("I Look Up When I Walk"). The singer has to look up as he walks, so his tears won't hit the ground.

    By far my favorite song. I first heard it when I was about six. I fell in love with Japanese culture as a young girl. My daughter is one quarter Japanese, and she has a younger half-sister unfortunately their dad chose drugs over his daughters. I still love Japan and the culture. I will always love this song.

    My condolences to his family. That song has brought so many good family memories over 60 years. My twin uncles (only 8 years older than I) used to listen to the radio and I'd try to sing along. Ive hummed it for all these years and am happy to have found it on You Tube.

    I bought his first album in Tokyo in 1963 - it has this song on it. It is red vinyl and the album jacket is blue with a pic of Kyu on it. Still have it after all these years - I can still sing the song in Japanese, after all these decades. A beautiful song of lost love.

      1950年〜1970年といえば恐らくほとんどの日本人がこの歌を思い浮かべることでしょう。
      日本に関わりのある人はこの歌でいつも懐かしさと、暗い世界から明るい世界へと移りゆく戦後復興の頃を思い浮かべます。
