Fave GTP track?

"Relax and Swing"

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

what a cool groove!!!!!!

Oh yes......

But my all time favourite is 'My New Career', which ALWAYS makes me cry, gawd knows why.

I also think 'Ain't that peculiar' has that particular 'weirdness' of sound Japan do so well. That would be my runner-up.

Well, I chose Nightporter because it was my first favourite Japan song and i fell in love with them with that song. But I couldn't pick just one from this album!! I mean , Swing , My new career and Methods of dance are just incredible songs!!!

this was incredibly tough for me..... I love love love GTP the song, but I also totally love Swing.... but as a photographer i am more connected to GTP

Methods of Dance, it's always a stand-out every time I listen to GTP. Though I love ALL of these songs, Nightporter and Swing are very close second choices.

Swing; the way David's voice dips low ("...relax and swing"), that does it for me, lol.

Omigod, we think so alike on this-----

Ask god's about this----I loooove that song----I listen to the OOC version and at the end when he goes waaay low, I grin like a fool, squeal like a ten year old, and my toes curl

Purely because of the title...?

ha ha...no not completely because of the title... jeesh i'm not that shallow. LOL... I really do love how this song makes me feel...

And when it comes to Krausy and her toes curling... oh yeah Swing makes her go all goofy. I have to agree with the deep dip in it... ugh...so HOT... that is why it was such a hard choice for me.

hee, thanks for clarifying that Gods. Of course I would never assume you were THAT shallow. That's MY job...

I also thought it was "Relax IN Swing" too. Also, I have no clue what he says in the middle of the song- I have looked at different lyrics websites, and they all say 3 different things. "Someone you'll neither know nor hear" or "Someone you'll never know again" or is it "Someone you'll never know or care"

That's been bugging me forever!

As for GTP and Swing- Two of my favorite songs ever!!

I think a letter is called for, Kera.

"Dear Mr Sylvian...

Er, would you mind telling me what on EARTH your lyrics say, and also what on EARTH they mean please?

There are some of us who have been trying to work them out for 25 years.

Thank you so much.

Kisses from

Your number one fan...."

LOL! I should- But I would be far to scared! I would be freaking out he'd hate me and throw it in the trash!

-Kera-

Oh no......he'd be flattered you were taking an interest.

Of course you'd have to be ever so cool and detached. No gushing allowed... This is a SERIOUS musician we're talking about here...
