Kyu Sakamoto 坂本 九 The Steve Allen Show-August 13, 1963
- 9 yıl önce
"Sukiyaki - Ue o Muite Arukō" by Kyu Sakamoto is the only Japanese language song ever to reach the top of the charts in the United States.It held that position on two Billboard charts for three and five weeks, beginning in June 1963. Kyu Sakamoto toured in the United States in August 1963 and appeared on the Steve Allen Show on August 13. As luck would have it, I watched Kyu Sakamoto on the Steve Allen Show. The second half of this video was uploaded by "lirat" as "Kyu Sakamoto on the Tonight show with Steve Allen"; but the title was incorrect, as Johnny Carson was doing the Tonight Show in1963. “Lirat’s” video had English sub-titles, but the video did not include the entire appearance. Fortunately, there is another video that does, uploaded by "hotcatQQ" and titled, "kyu sakamoto with wife Steve Allen show 坂本九"; that comprises the first half of this video.The link to that video is:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iW3efimtb0o
