Japanese '80s City Pop Playlist

Someone told me City Pop is all about enjoying your evening without any worries for tomorrow. Wish everyone who's listening a peaceful evening 🖤

All my fake 80's japanese childhood memories come back, although i am 23 yo Polish guy 🥹

80s City pop is better than therapy. This has me saving money.

My mom has friend who can sing these songs very well. She was a Filipino who works as a bar singer/performer in Japan during the 80s. She's in her late 50s now, but can still sing some of these songs on point!

Things really have changed. These songs make you nostalgic for things that you did not even experience. You can clearly visualize those old anime while listening to these songs. They just have a certain "feel" that you can't find in today's songs.

"We may speak different languages, but music is a language we all understand." From Japan 🌺

単車から車に乗り変えた頃city popにハマり毎夜の様に街を流してた記憶が蘇ります❤ 米国在住40年になりますが最近では日本人以外の若い人達に真夜中のドアが大人気で天国のミキさんも喜んでると思います♪

My grandpa said this type of music inspired the bar he opened in the 80s “Tokyo Delves” in Los Angeles when he first immigrated here from Japan - pretty dope people still listen to it

日本人です！ 親世代が聞いてた曲で、私も小さい頃車の中で聴いていたりしました。今になってこうやって世界中の人に愛されているのがとても嬉しい！ありがとう♡ 皆さん素敵な夜になりますように✨

Maybe many people don't know "city pop" is not only a music genre...it was the portrayal of an era through music. It represented the Japan of the 80s, the Japan that gracefully rode the wave of prosperity, a perfect breeding ground not only for thinking about the future...but even not needing to for because its present was already perfect. The Japan where young office workers had exorbitant salaries and young couples were able to buy big houses, a cosmopolitan bubble-life where young salarymen and male and female students had a bright future, where everyone wanted to live. "City pop" talked about the joy of life and nightlife, love, happiness, an endless paradise that had to be enjoyed very fast and very lively, before the decade finishes and 90s come...

What makes me the most happy is seeing so many positive comments under here. Hope everyone is having an amazing day!

To everyone who’s reading this comment: you have a great taste for music. Love you 💜

It's not a real JP 80's city pop playlist unless it starts with Stay With Me to set the mood.

Songs in the 80's will always hit that one good note that youve been waiting for! :face-blue-wide-eyes:

City Pop embodies the essence of relishing the present moment without the weight of tomorrow's concerns. To everyone tuning in, here's to wishing you a tranquil and serene evening. May it be filled with peace and contentment. 🖤

On a rainy sunday at 3:41pm Oct1 2023 in Jamaica listening to this, is peacefull. Not worrying about a damn thing tomorrow.

I'm happy that people all over the world are listening to Japanese songs 👏

Writing a 30 page essay doesn't feel so bad anymore. THANK YOU :')

When I do my housework, it's ready. It plays in the background and makes things happier, everything is better with good tracks like these.

I love how there are hundreds of city pop playlists on YouTube and they're all the same songs.
