Hello! ^^
I introduce myself...
My name is Rachele, I'm 21 and I come from Italy! ^^

I knew David Sylvian and Japan in a strange way...
I mean, I knew Sakamoto-sensei music... and I heard "Forbidden Colours".
So, I heard David for the first time... and it was like... a lightning hitting my heart! Can't explain better... XD
But I had a long way to arrive to Japan...
I spent a couple of years in the japanese pop-rock music (and I'm still in it! I love a particular japanese band but that's another story... XD)..
And a month ago, i heard again Forbidden Colours and... again, that lightning to my heart!
So, I decided to follow my beating heart and I looked for David's works and I discovered Japan, too...
I'm still so ignorant... >_<;;; I'm trying to learn, to know more and more about Japan, David and all the others...
I found this forum by chance and... here am I! ^___^

There are few things that are as special and fascinating as listening to Japan and David's music for the first time. :-)

Welcome to the forum...feel free to ask anything you would like to know about Japan or David...we're here for that reason!! Enjoy!

Welcome Rachele! Nice to know there is someone in Naples on the forum.

Definitely get SBS and Id recommend Everything & Nothing and Secrets of the Beehive if you haven't heard these CDs.

-David in Texas

PS> Speaking of J-pop, I really liked Dreams Come True when I lived in Japan. Never saw them live but friends there made sure I got there CDs. It was also nice to see Miwa in the Sakamoto's Zero Landmine concert...

Thank you for the advice! I already bought and heard "Secrets of the Beehive (i love it!!).
Now I'll look for Snow Borne Sorrow and Everything and Nothing! :-)

You lived in Japan, David? >_< That's one of my "not-so-secret" dream! ^__^

No, no influences by Queen... :wink:

They are... how can i say... romantic rock! ^^
Some songs are very soft... other songs are more heavy... others are a little goth...
Very various style! ^^
