Ryuichi Sakamoto – 美貌の青空 / bibo no aozora / Beautiful Blue Sky
Album: SMOOCHY
The dishonesty of the gaze
drowned in nobility
it was a crazy summer
blue sky and voice
like a little death
love no more
With forbidden love
The eyes are the wounds of the soul that knows
on different planets
we are twins living
with beastly grace
Taste the silence on your tongue
like a millet
While hurting my chest with sadness
From your pretty throat
The end of the overflowing rainbow
beautiful blue sky
it was a crazy summer
everything you touch
like a piece of death
your blood is transparent
Look at those savage eyes
I thought these lyrics were gorgeous - they read like poetry. I love Ryuichi Sakamoto’s work but this one really evoked an emotion of not sadness but nihilism almost. Definitely one of my favourites in his catalogue
There’s a version with Taeko Ōnuki too but I haven’t listened to it yet. I love her voice though so I’ll have to listen soon

It's all that we have, it's all that we have…just that and the big, beautiful blue sky.

Öyle büyük şeylerde gözüm yok hiç ….
Tadında sımsıkı sarılışlar, ruhumuza dokunan şarkılar ..
Maskelerden arınmış yüzler, sımsıcak kahkahalar ..
Gün doğumları .. hepsi bu…
