Japan as in David Sylvian and Mick Karn
Mate... honestly, don't even get me started on this tune.

It is a synth-badman of a tune Lovesmilie

EDIT: I'm gonna put it on now.. and maybe some talk talk, or psychedelic furs or something.

thats the clownstep of the 80's you big cheeser
Listened to the tin drum cd earlier....... still sounding wikked!

on a sad note, ive just heard that Mick Karn, the bassist, has died (he played fretless bass for Japan)
RIP

No fretless bass on ghosts though. Such a tune Lovesmilie

There is no way a track like this could chart these days Roll
Personal favourite Japan track is a bit of a tossup between Taking Islands In Africa, Life In Tokyo, Canton, Quiet Life, Gentlemen Take Polaroids and, uh, well fuckloads of others too really Grin
