Song of the Month: #4

“Tsukanoma Yotogi Bito” (or “Give Me Taboo”) by “Yuiko Tsubokura”

From her first full album, the 1986 “Always in Love”. This song is a favourite on the internet for it’s upbeat tone and excellent singing, arising with the recent desire of the internet for 80’s Japanese City Pop. It’s also commonly hear in Future Funk mixes, as the flair of this song is undeniable. There isn’t much information readily available in English about her, however she is apparently still active and did work producing tracks for the notably great sounding “Bubblegum Crisis” and “Kimagure Orange Road”.
