Story about this misheard lyric by: Cody Finke "Ue o Muite Arukō" literally means "I will walk looking up" in Japanese. Ironically, "Ue o Muite Arukō" is the official title in Japan, where the singer Kyu Sakamoto and the song originated. This was the only #1 US Hot 100 song to be sung entirely in Japanese. A Taste of Honey and 4 PM translated the song into English versions. |
