10th Anniversary Special: It's The Numbers, Baby

 

It may be a 10th Anniversary Special, but this one isn't quite as sentimental as the previous two articles. The thought that had invaded my head was that since we're celebrating the number of years that "Kayo Kyoku Plus" has been in existence in the wonderful world of cyberspace, why not devote one article to the "numbered" kayo? So, as one fellow who I follow on YouTube has said: Let's make this, shall we?

Noriyuki Makihara -- No. 1


Pedro & Capricious -- Go-ban Gai no Mari e (五番街のマリーへ)


Akina Nakamori -- Jikai (1984) (十戒 (1984))


Saori Minami -- Juu-nana Sai (17才)


Yumi Matsutoya -- 78


Yellow Magic Orchestra -- 1000 Knives


Takao Horiuchi -- Kimi no Hitomi wa Ichi-man Boruto (君のひとみは 10000 ボルト)


Hiromi Go -- Ni-Oku Yon-Sen-Man no Hitomi (2億4千万の瞳)

  1. Congratulations are in order, 10 years is no easy feat in cyberspace! Interesting Yellow Magic Orchestra pick, BTW

    1. Thanks, Ozzie! I gather that 10 years isn't too easy but I'm also a fellow who simply can't break a habit. :) As for the YMO pick, it's actually the first time that I'd heard any version of "1000 Knives" before discovering the original by Ryuichi Sakamoto in 1978.
