I very recently discovered this song for the first time. I don't speak much Japanese, but I've become almost obsessed with it.

It really tugs at the emotions the way he sings it. I can see why it went to number one on the u.s. Billboard top 100 back in the 60's

When looking up more info about him, I was surprised to learn that he was the first Asian recording artist to reach number 1 on the American music charts.

I was saddened to discover that he died in a plane crash.

Yah lot of older folk I know absolutely cherish this song (it really permeated the airwaves). Many have left comments on the youtube page too.

I liked the opening a lot. I didn't know what "baad-e-naseem" meant so I googled and found this nice blog which spoke about the opening and its translation.

I must give more time to this song.

From my side, the "Aao na" song from the superb film Haider.
