 | | The Japanese title is "Ue O Muite Aruko," which means "I look up when I walk." This is a vintage video of Kyu himself singing this international hit on a TV show in 1963 called "Shall We Meet At 7". |
 | | Sung in Japan by Kyu in 1961, then retitled by an English Record Company "Sukiyaki" which is a Japanese food dish and nothing to do with the song itself, because a DJ couldn't pronounce the Japanese name, and became internationally famous from then on as "Sukiyaki". |
 | | Kyu Sakamoto tragically died in a Japan Airlines plane crash in 1985 at age 43, one of 520 passengers, but his classic megahit will continue to live on for generations. |
