Are you playing Plastic Love?” I told him yes and he went on saying “Wow I haven’t heard this song since I was stationed(US Army) in Japan in 1985.” “I first heard this song when walking around the shopping districts on my days off in Tokyo.” He sighed remembering his youth I assumed lol.

She did react to it publicly on interview! I remember watching a video where she was amazed by the impact it was having with foreign youth on internet and felt very thankful of it. Sadly I do not have the link at hand, the title was in Japanese and sent by someone else on the video from Plastic Lover which is no longer available since the release of the official MV on KZread...

My theory about why this song in particular found success in modern times is that it resurfaced during the time period in music where a single looping chord progression at a modest pace was very dominant in the indie music scene (not the genre indie, but in the literal 'independent' sense). Also, while not a one-progression song, Plastic Love very heavily leans on a derivative of the extremely popular IV-V-iii-vi chord progression that dominates eastern music to this day (you hear it eeeeeeverywhere in Japanese music, especially). It's just one of those songs that came back at the right time where the principles it was written on are back in style. If you listen to the songs that were higher in the popularity charts back in the mid/late 70s and early 80s in Japan, they really don't sound like Plastic Love. Just a thought I have. :)

I’ve always had a golden rule to not only listen to what’s popular. You discover so many stellar artists just by exploring and it’s genuinely more rewarding. Just about everyone listens to multiple genres, and it’s really difficult to learn all there is to know about the artists from all the genres there are, but just by delving into the unknown you find all sorts of things no one talks about or aren’t well known. It’s a feeling I never get tired of! One of my biggest fears in life is that I won’t be able to listen to all the music that has been or will be. It gnaws at me insatiably and continuously.

Hey, I don't know how this video got 50k views in the past month but thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I'm not sure if I have the time anymore to make another video, but this is really inspiring! This means a lot and seeing a lot of these comments really warms my heart. Love y'all! 2023 edit: Jesus christ this video seems to get picked up my the algorithm every so often and it's always exciting to see new people discovering it! I've been seeing a lot of comments ask similar questions so I thought I'd address them here. 1. The anime in the background is Cipher. It was an OVA produced in the 1980s for the Japanese home video market. It's been an in-joke between me and my friends as it has terribly cheesy covers of 80s hit songs and some of the worst English you'll ever hear in an ankle ever. Highly recommend it. 2. I'm aware the song is now on Spotify and I'm supremely happy about it! Listen to it constantly. Crazy to think since this video has come out that it now has a full music video and even charted AGAIN in Japan. This time it charted slightly higher than it originally did in the 80s which I find funny. 3. I know how awkward my voice sounds and I know that I mispronounced Tatsuro Yamashita in the whitest way possible. I cringe every time I hear it now

Well to be honest you summon us who love this music :)

The song MUST HAVE a 40 episodes Drama serie, about a young girl, i love how sweet and innocente Mariya sounds in the song, it makes it that much more Nostalgic. And we all can relate to that. Story: guy travels accidentally to the past, meets a japanese High school female student in the 80s, we see the culture, places etc from the 80s, (Michael Jackson Bad tour, etc) then he has to come back alone to a future where Vaporwave is the trend, and he kinda moves on with another chick but he misses Mariya, (just the song's character not the actual musician) then Mariya comes to the future but she doesnt recognize him, but they have so much chemistry they fall in love again, representing plastic love as it really is. (Volatile) Then she remembers him from the past. Its a happy ending with Vaporwave, Private caller Saint Pepsi, and of Course Plastic Love, with even extended added Lyrics from Mariya to fit this story.

Sorry but I'd have to disagree, her actual love life is way better. This song was made with her husband Tatsuro Yamashita another extremely popular japanese pop artist.

The string line at the turn around of the chorus was sampled in some 90s hip hop but I can’t remember the song… but props the producer for the knowledge of this very hidden gem at the time.

Honestly, I didn’t think any of these things I just thought I found a masterpiece for myself. But I praise the amount of research you did👏🏼

Yamashita has a oldies radio program broadcasted nationwide on Sunday afternoons. Being old-school, he accepts comments not by emails or twitter but by postcards. Because people making comments has to go through that extra inconvenience, I would imagine they would be well thought out, as well as giving the staff less of a job sifting through the static. Being of the same generation as Yamashita, I love that I can sing along with most of the songs on his program. But sometimes he plays gems of the past that I've heard for the first time. Every years end, He invites he wife to do a program with him. It's a rare moment when you can hear the interaction of these two well established artists talk about their daily lives. When asked about how they feel about their sudden rise in fame on internet, they answered that they were puzzled and didn't know what to make of it.

i found plastic love because it got added in an update to taiko no tatsujin on ios. i had no idea there was this much online lore about this song. i was also really confused when i found the near 8 minute youtube video after listening to the original on apple music cus the intro felt a bit too long to me.

I think I ended up listening to this song so much KZread finally decided to recommend it to me, 6 months later. Great video !!

I was very surprised by the quality of this video, I hope you will do more soon, very well documented and not at all boring or tedious :)

this is an amazing video filled with research and quality, really interesting through and through. Keep it up!

I knew all of this information already, as I had researched it myself before coming across this video, but thanks for sharing this with those who many not have known these facts. Well done!

Because of takeuchis plastic love, I began to love other city pop songs

Believe it or not I just found out about this song not through KZread through Spotify I listen to some Japanese music and the Friday night plans version came on and I’m in love with both versions

The Plastic Love video is like those "Pink Flpyd Comfortably Numb" videos with a Dark Side Of The Moon cover

Very well-spoken! There have been multiple remixes, but only one (1) has my heart. That would be by Astrophysics. THAT is a masterpiece, built upon a masterpiece.

Only in America is it called "City Pop" it's officially called "New Music" in Japan.

I have lived in Tokyo for the last 8 years and I can promise you that at a lot of Vinyl shops these days there are "City Pop" labeled sections, so the term is used in Japan as well.

I already knew about the first assumption because a friend of mine said so when he stayed at Japan for 4 years but the second and third really blew my mind. You deserve more subs btw!

You can find Plastic love on Spotify now!!!!!

this is some top notch editing, i hope you grow your channel more brother

Bro this video was pretty high quality. I hope this video blows up your channel

i’m glad youtube recommended me this, this is a really well made video!

"The 3 assumption about the plastic love video" *watches *sees number 4

Plastic Lover made all great choices: A great music, a great photo, a great mix.

This song is one of those stranger things in music where an emotion of an era is hard to put in words, yet sends you back in time with sound.

The editing quality of this video is just amazing.

Living in Japan for 2 years, I've never seen any Japanese person who knows the song who is NOT a chronically online young person. most people know about her tho, just not this song

this is a really good video Bo Tiger.

good old 2017 man, good times when vaporwave was still popping but slowly dying...

My opinion remains unchanged. I love the song and still listen to it and enjoy it and that's all anyone should really care about. Great video, it was neat hearing about the song's origins.
