竹脇無我 (Muga Takewaki) - 星を数え飽きたら( Hoshi o kazoe kitara)
Track: 星を数え飽きたら( 'Hoshi o kazoe kitara') ("When You Tire of Counting Stars")
Artist: 竹脇無我 (Muga Takewaki)
Album: 作詞 + 作詩集(Shuji Terayama Sakushi+Sakushishu)
"Bloody rare Terayama Shuji set that was released in a limited little run way back in 2002 and which evaporated into thin air after that. The discs bear evidence to the wide range of artists that made use of Terayama's lyrics and poems and visionary vision. The whole range of artists on display emerged in the late sixties and early seventies and you get treated to unreleased tracks by Carmen Maki, J.A. Seazer, Itoh Kiyoko, Ran Yoko, Kitahara Mirei and so many more. Truly astonishing set of music. Sadly enough out of print since the day of its release..."

Lyrics:
The man who taught
her
that everytime one person
tricks another
the number of stars in the sky
increases
left on a ship
and never
came back
The woman
waited for the man
counting stars by the window
She grew old
alone and lonely
The woman
is my mother
The man
is my father
My spirit
was astronomy
