Division Bell On again off again

Matsuda Seiko and Kyu Sakamoto (his song hit #1 in the USA)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pc4VvK0YzcM

Kyu's songs were played a ton after he died in the JAL123 plane crash that killed 520 people (single deadliest crash in history).

This song hit #1 in the USA in June 1963, but still had staying power when I was in Japan in the mid 80s.
