Tokyo ON #078: Voices from Beyond

Maction Planet Resident DJ Royce Leong learns from history in a special episode of Tokyo ON.

These are tumultuous times. Recognizing the futility of war and the needless loss of life, on this special episode we look at some of the stories behind songs by the Boom, Misora Hibari, ECD, and more as we search for meaning and lessons from history and lived experience. Even if you recognize some of the songs, context, as it seems, is everything. One time for love, two times for peace.
