David Sylvian & Mick Karn - "When Love Walks In" 

Mick Karn was probably one of the most original bassists ever. I'm in constant awe of his sense of rhythm and melody. His untimely death was an absolute tragedy.

His way of playing bass guitar gave the world ears and made music alive. Thanks for all! R.I.P.

I just admire mick awfully. He and dave were unbeatable. I love this number. . thanks

When I was a kid and life got too hard to bear I would lock myself in my room and listen to Japan and all my troubles and problems would fade away. For that, I thank you Mick. You made my childhood bearable.... God bless you.

This track is sublime.... The chilling haunting sounds of the late Mick Karn and the poetic, hypnotic artistry of David Sylvian's soft, mysterious voice.... It's just soo original, in a way many of today's artists cannot match, it's in a league of its own and if released today it sounds as killer fresh as I am sure it did back then... Dreams of Reason Produce Monsters is always on my playlist at home, Karn's phenomenal talent just blows me away, he played soo many instruments, he was a true genius.

It’s so sad he is not around...what a legacy though

Seeing these lovely photos of this duo and knowing that this era cannot be repeated is hurting so much but we still have this music to listen to. This is so soothing.

The only duo I believe that should have never parted. They always were the essence of Japan. Who knows what wonderful music they would made just the two of them...

I have met this lovely man quite a few times int 80's and was so lovely/polite/interesting and pretty. I also stroked his face. He was my brothers friend and I was 8 yrs old. I am now nearly 40 and he's still beautiful

so this is what japan would have sounded like had they stayed together. magical.

A God given talent who provided us with a unique sound that will resonate forever.

These two allways made the best music when collaborating RIP Mick.

This is the first time i have heard this in years, it has aged well, they were a dream team.

Absolutely sublime bass playing on this track from the late, much missed and brilliant Mick Karn.

RIP Mick - one of the best and most original fretless bass players ever! His music lives on.

the genius of Mick Karn

japan will always be one and only

O, what memories they make... Phenomenal pair........................love..................

Great to meet the lady behind the film...It was years ago i first saw this and cried...Bless you and great to have such a special person with us on Team Mick Karn love and hugs Penelope xx

R.I.P. dear Mick. These are all lovely pictures of Mick and David. Well done!

So sad to see our favourite musicians pass away suffering from a senseless disease. The good thing is, that their Music and influence will live on for ever...

Thanks for opening my eyes mick ..i miss the moment you were around R.I.P

This is one of my favourite songs. I love the combination of vocals and bass. Magic. Truly gifted.

A plea for a friend...Back in '78, a gal I worked with knew I loved Bowie and said,"Here. Listen to this." JAPAN's Adolescent Sex. I didn't take it off my turntable for 2 months. They've been my favorite band ever since. Able to find a full collection of all their work over the years...but...never another fan! I've felt so alone in the joy they give me. Just want to say "Howdy!" to someone who's got "Wish You Were Black" on their ipod or whatever. No foolin'..."Rhodesia"?...anybody???

Yes both of them Mr.Karn and Mr. Sylvian are pure genius! Nabi oxoxo

When love walks in, it truly changes your whole world. Thank you, Strapper, for changing mine for the better. Our love is something special. 118 my darling. Saffy Lolita xxx [Rest in peace, Mick, the greatest fretless bass player of all time.]

When two continents collide the results can be devastating. Probably best to meet in the middle... Sometimes this happens, but ultimately they both can't survive too close to each other.

This song is the best colaboration with David. RIP Mick.

nice, i remember the 80´ies, als David Sylvian und Mick Karn Musik Teil meines Lebens waren ... Schön sie hier zu hören!! Daumen hoch!

2 of the best bassists of all time IMHO are Mick Karn and Geddy Lee of Rush. The synergy of Sylvian and Karn was sublime. To compare them to Duran Duran or Spandeau Ballet is like comparing a Picasso to a kids colouring book.

Micks fretless bass - superb.

Shouldn't that be titled "Mick Karn with David Sylvian"? It is, after all, Micks album.

R.I.P. Mick...awesome bass sound from you. Your mix with David here is PRICELESS.

I was brought up to this music, it's in my veins, it's not music, it's a way of thinking and a way of life and i'm proud to be like that inspite these ugly times!

I had a lot of this stuff going on my self working on but I still try to bring some of it back. Its still here thanks to him its hard to change music today 2018 I think I am the only one to do it bring back that sounds

There'll be tomorrow's given time Just close your eyes and leave this all behind... RIP Mick Karn.

I miss those times so much..... the 80s etc... when I watch these clips with my bottle of wine I get so nostagic..

I have... no words...

Thanks to you for watching and these beautiful words for David & Mick Nabiky oxoxo

You defined a lot for me ... I found my self In a different world

Mick Karn is an inspiration for all forms of expression in art/music ----- very few people can say they have a definite style that is their own. Thank you, Mick for sharing it with us !!! RIP

amazing song !

Brings back nostalgic memories of Japan at their peak in the early eighties. Karn was particularly cool on his sax and oboe in concert. Great tribute to these great artists :-)

Japan fabulous, Mick fabulous x

Hardiestgirl2012--I know I might have commented about how much I love this video in the past (can't remember & there are 224 comments now) but I stumbled upon this today again and wow! I simply love it so much! I can never get enough of David and Mick as together they were magic! :)

i dunno why such two amazingly talented people should be be more successfull. mick and david you are the best please bring back that magic.

What a great bassist. May he rest in peace.

Amazing music this..

There's something in the air It's never felt like this before A turning of the tide A slamming of the holy doors I'll find myself a quiet place that no-one's ever seen A blazing sun will shine upon the road ahead of me When love walks in I see it in their eyes The flames to burn the final straw The heathen struck the match and lit the fire A wish fulfilled and nothing more I'll find myself a quiet place that no-one's ever seen A blazing sun will shine upon the road ahead of me When love walks in Why take me now there's nothing more Just hold me close and say goodbye There'll be tomorrow's given time Just close your eyes and leave this all behind Then love walks in Like waves of golden sand Heavenly floating seas The power in her hands Brings mountains to their knees

Great music. Nuff said. So listen....

Great music. Totally unique.

Thank you so much for your nice words i made this video just because i love this song for so long and because always wanted to do a "Tribute" to Dave & Mick! Im glad that you like it as much i do Dave's smile.. Heaven! Hehehe : D Nabiky oxoxo

I love the way Karn's and Sylvian's voices beautifully merge and harmonize toward the song's end; how symbolic of such an exquisite collaboration. Thanks for posting!

Love this so much, it's so damn ethereal.

Something in the air,love wallks in.mick karn, David sylvian,Steven Jansen his brother, richard Barbieri,Masami tsuchiya japan ✨🌹💞🙏🎸🌌 Merci.

Love you Mick 🖤

I love Mick Karn's phrasing, there's no one like him!

R.I.P Mick Karn. Your bass playing skills were nothing short of magnificent and you were so utterly stunning

R.I.P Mick Karn!

Fantastic! I never listened to this album before. Now I'm drowning in my nostalgia. Thanks.

Sublime

there is a line.. past/ present/future. ... They are taking us to a different sound!

💜🤘🏾ALL HAIL DAVID SYLVIAN AND JAPAN🤘🏾💜 R.I.P. MICK KARN 🎸

A lot of the lovely pictures...Thanks for posting so much !　

Thank you for posting and the wonderful pictures in the clip, many of which I had not even seen before.

Mi mette in pace con il mondo, fantastico pezzo.

Oh David oh David T_T You are too beautiful and so is your voice... Mick sounds still brilliant as ever!!! Thanks for uploading the video! And as your profile background is full of David Sylvian... it is such a pleasure to my eyes... THANKS YOU!!!

4:04 both of these smiles are amazing

Mick Karn was one of the most talented and in my opinion the coolest bass player ever! From a metal & hard rock fan.

Brilliant. That is all I can say X

broke my heart when Japan packed up but Mick and David have gone on to give us some incredible music. great montage

Just wanted to say this tribute you have so lovingly made always makes me cry, it is a work of art, Bless you and thanks. Hope you are a member of Team Mick Karn on FB...we may know each other! Best wishes love Penelope xxx

We were all so lucky to have had such a talent to appreciate. It will be greatly missed.

Sadly missed. I missed this album, but to judge by this, I'll need to do some shopping. This is gorgeous.

Lovely photo montage. Well done

Refreshing to see both musicians at different stages in their careers in your video montage. And Sylvian at 4.08 is a stunning pic of him smiling! He never smiles in current shots. Such a shame because when he does, it seems to completely transform him.

just heard this for the first time - absolutely gorgeous. thank you so much for the pics. takes me back to my youth when i based my whole look on sylvian. never found anyone yet to match these guys.

Beautiful

Dream team

R.I.P 7yrs on 🎸🕊🕆

Hehe yes David is a Handsome man! Thanks for your comment and for watching! Nabiky oxoxo

Fingers of his soul will never give us leave the eightys.

I love this! ♥

C’est magnifique 🌸😊💕

Thank you for posting this --- great work by MIck & David. Very ironic that 'Love walks in' is the title/chorus and the break-up of Japan was rumored to be partially over a girl both of them were seeing (at different times, separately). I actually like this more than Japan & Rain Tree Crow! Thanks again!

best song i've heard sylvian sing.

And relax karn n sylvian memories

Excellente...

so beautiful

history repeats itself!

I always smile at the picture where Mick is wide-eyed and smiling! He was such a gorgeous man in his days, but will forever be a role model to me and the most talented person in the world! Yes, it is sad that David would be so uncaring for Mick, like stealing his girlfriend, but then again David was and still is apparently "up his own ass". Thanks for posting!

I love you both, my dear David and Mick

Excellent, thanks.

Excellent song. Such brilliant musicians.

Miss you Mick,never forget your brilliance.

RIP Mick. Pioneer and inspiration. RIP.

una maravilla de video y musica...gracias nabiky....queremos mas en youtube ya!!! Un abrazo Modesto
