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.

About this/me
About this:
Inspired by Tuuur, who was inspired by Glenn Case, I will be posting some song of the day posts over here. This blog is written in (poor) English, but since I’m from the Netherlands there will be some Dutch songs and/or lyrics passing by.
About me:
I live in Alkmaar, the Netherlands, a short train ride from Amsterdam. I like open source software, open-minded people and bars open all night.
