AGE: 22 BACKGROUND: Kyu (pronounced "Q") has been a big star in Japan for almost four years, racking up eight best selling albums and 15 hit singles in that time, as well as acting in movies and television appearances. When Washington state disk jockey Rich Osborne (KORD) played a track from a Toshiba LP for his audience recently, entitled "Ue O Mui Te Aruko" the response was so favourable that the disk was soon one of the most popular in Washington State. Capitol Records, the U.S. associate of Toshiba decided to release it in this country, but changed the name to "Sukiyaki." The Lyrics: Looking up while walking Ue wo muite arukou 上を向いて歩こう So the tears won't fall Namida ga koborenai youni 涙がこぼれないように Remebering those spring days Omoidasu haru no hi 思い出す春の日 All alone at night Hitoribocchi no yoru 一人ぼっちの夜 Looking up while walking Ue wo muite arukou 上を向いて歩こう And counting the scattered stars Nijinda hoshi wo kazoete にじんだ星をかぞえて Remembering those summer days Omoidasu natsu no hi 思い出す夏の日 All alone at night Hitoribocchi no yoru 一人ぼっちの夜 Happiness lies above the clouds Shiawase wa kumo no ue ni 幸せは雲の上に Happiness lies above the sky Shiawase wa sora no ue ni 幸せは空の上に Looking up while walking Ue wo muite arukou 上を向いて歩こう So the tears won't fall Namida ga koborenai youni 涙がこぼれないように Keep walking on, while crying Naki nagara aruku 泣きながら歩く It's a lonely night Hitoribocchi no yoru 一人ぼっちの夜 Omoidasu aki no hi Remembering those autumn days 思い出す秋の日 Sadness is in the shadow of the stars Kanashimi wa hoshi no kage ni 悲しみは星の影に Sadness is in the shadow of the moon Kanashimi wa tsuki no kage ni 悲しみは月の影に Looking up while walking Ue wo muite arukou 上を向いて歩こう So the tears won't fall Namida ga koborenai youni 涙がこぼれないように Keep walking on, while crying Naki nagara aruku 泣きながら歩く It's a lonely night Hitoribocchi no yoru 一人ぼっちの夜 It's a lonely night Hitoribocchi no yoru 一人ぼっちの夜
