Aneka - Japanese Boy 2024 (Jason Parker Remix)
INFO
"Japanese Boy" is a hit single by Scottish singer Aneka, released in July 1981. The song became her highest-charting release, reaching number one in several countries, including the United Kingdom. The song's success would eventually lead audiences to associate Aneka closely with both the lyrics' subject matter as well as the kimono that she wore during some televised performances of the song, associations that she found difficult to discard as her career proceeded.
TEXT / LYRICS
He said that he loved me, never would go
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Now I find am sitting here on my own
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Was it something I've said or done
That made him pack his bags up and run?
Could it be another he's found?
It's breaking up the happy home
Mister, can you tell me where my love has gone?
He's a Japanese boy
I woke up one morning, and my love was gone
Oh, my Japanese boy
Ooh, I miss my Japanese boy
People ask about him every day
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Don't know what to tell them, what can I say?
Oh-oh, oh-oh
If only he would write me or call
A word of explanation, that's all
It would stop me climbing the wall
It's breaking up the happy home
Mister, can you tell me where my love has gone?
He's a Japanese boy
I woke up one morning, and my love was gone
Oh, my Japanese boy
Ooh, I miss my Japanese boy
Was it something I've said or done
That made him pack his bags up and run?
Could it be another he's found?
It's breaking up the happy home
Mister, can you tell me where my love has gone?
He's a Japanese boy
I woke up one morning, and my love was gone
Oh, my Japanese boy
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Mister, can you tell me where my love has gone?
He's a Japanese boy
I woke up one morning, and my love was gone
Ooh, my Japanese boy
