"Sukiyaki song"

[osaraba]

yoshiinjapan, it's all your fault.

Yesterday morning I had a sudden NEED to hear this song, which is properly called 上を向いて歩こう (Ue wo muite arukou) by Sakamoto Kyu, and which has an interesting history behind it. You can hear/dl the song/view the lyrics from here.

Apparently, Utada Hikaru did a cover of the song ~ which would have been cool, except she sang it in ENGLISH. Eew, come on! =/
