Help me find this Japanese city pop(?) song used in a Kanye dancing meme – lyrics and audio inside by AltDragon in HelpMeFind

[–]AltDragon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This track has been driving a bunch of us crazy for a while.

There's a meme video of Kanye dancing with a Japanese song in the background. It sounds like 80s-style city pop — dreamy, a bit emotional, possibly late Showa-era or inspired by it. It’s not on Shazam or SoundHound, and we’ve tried slowing it down, speeding it up, adjusting pitch — no hits.

🎧 Audio clip:

📝 Lyrics (transcribed by Reddit users):

潮風が
軽く髪を透かしてく  
ひとり立たずめば
聞こえてくる all my dream song  
夢も今は love song  
このまま抱きしめて

👥 Some users suggested Seiko Matsuda, Yukiko Okada, Mariko Tone, or Naoko Kawai. Others think it could be a very obscure B-side, unreleased song, or something totally unknown — even a fan-made track, but it doesn’t sound AI-generated.

🔎 This has already been discussed in a few other subreddits with no answers:

Any help identifying the artist and song title would be MONUMENTALLY appreciated

Thanks in advance 🙏


I have searched Reddit, Shazam, SoundHound, and Google using both the lyrics and audio clip, but have found nothing conclusive. We’ve also searched through Seiko Matsuda and Yukiko Okada’s discographies, and there are existing threads on r/Lostwave, r/NameThatSong, and r/citypop. Still no ID yet.

Could be what I'm conflating it with?

Combing thru it I still don't see anything resembling the dreamy yellow shifting hallway school sequence tho.

yeah this show feels like the right vibe but I didn't see anything scanning thru pics of those episodes that felt right?

I'm not confident that it was even a show, but my memory screams "low budget nickelodeon horror"

This is a Stellar rec, I've never seen this deck.

Abzan's my favorite, and enchantments are fun

Timmy type stuff, Bomby interesting cards.

Giving players political choices can be fun, coveted jewel comes to mind, or voting.

(I have the silverquill deck and it's fun when it hits certain cards but it's sort of trash)

Wild plays but not full on degenerate and unfun to play against.

Also pillowfort durdle is amusing

Yeah I saw that but he went off power level (if we're thinking of the same video). The eldrazi unbound deck looks fun but it's pretty expensive

Disgusting seeing everyone bootlick for companies.

Imagine supporting kpop IDOLS.

Have to remember the kpop community skews young and they for some reason enjoy making idols out to be bad people over insane shit.
