Day 16 – Ryuichi Sakamoto & David Sylvian – Forbidden Colours

I always thought I hated eighties music, but this is yet another song from the eighties. After two weeks this project is already revealing some secrets.

I realy like the music by Ryuichi Sakamoto, and I think he is underestimated as a composer. David Sylvian on the other hand is someone who’s music I hardly know. And to conclude todays post: I never saw the movie Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (starring David Bowie and with a small role for Ryuichi Sakamoto). Maybe I should do that soon.
