Included on the 1989 album “KARAKURI HOUSE.” A three-piece ska band formed in Tokyo in 1983.

SPARKTHE YELLOW MONKEY

This is a rock number by THE YELLOW MONKEY that sings of passionate love.

It paints a worldview where you close your eyes and share a space with the night, and within its sensual expressions lies a pure heart wishing for eternal love.
