which english title to indicate here


When you enjoy KITARO Music, you may find the enigma of "it sounds like the same song, but why the title is different?" or "I think this title is wrong!". One of the causes is obvious. Mostly all the songs on the six albums from SILK ROAD VOLUME 1 (released 1980) to QUEEN MILLENNIA (released 1982) originally did not have english title. And when those albums were released in the countries outside of Japan later, someone named their own english title without permission. Of course, there must be other causes.

In case the song has english title on the original edition (i.e. very first release on this planet), Young Persons' Guide to KITARO Music indicates that original english title. But in case the song has no english title on the original edition, Young Persons' Guide to KITARO Music indicates the english title in the following way...

#1: In case KITARO-san himself speaks the english title, that is the first option.
#2: In case the song would be included on other later album (*) and has its english title on the original edtion of that album, that is the second option.
#3: If there are more than 2 english titles when #2 (above), the early one is indicated.
#4: If there is no english title on any original editions, the most familiar one is indicated.
(*) except for the compilation albums
