Autumn Breeze (秋風) – Yutaka Ozaki (尾崎豊) [English Lyrics]

I would like to make more lyric videos for songs that were never performed live, especially the songs of Confession for Exist. Although I’m never sure what to use as a background, so far I’ve been using stuff I’ve drawn although often times I end up looking back on my art and not liking it. So hopefully it doesn’t look silly. I just want to try to make it more unique yet fitting, and there isn’t too much art out there of Ozaki anyways. It makes me feel better for the fact that Ozaki himself got into art a little bit and liked to incorporate it into his work. His was art was a little more abstract too. I believe the art for Artery and Vein was one he made… I would’ve liked to seen more of what he would’ve created had he had the chance to delve into more art (painting, drawing, etc.)

Anyways, this is a demo song that was never released until they created an album from old cassettes he recorded around 1984. While looking it up, apparently there were some critics when this came out saying that the songs are too raw to be able to enjoy listening too, which I think is a load of crap. I always listen to that album through to the end and find it beautiful each time. I love that it just feels like pure Ozaki, just him with his guitar singing songs… quiet yet filled with emotion. If you haven’t listened to it, give it a shot. You can find most of the songs on YouTube.
