Kimi To Itsumademo 君といつまでも

This is my instrumental cover of “Kimi To Itsumademo (君といつまでも )” – in English, “Forever with You”, a song written by Japanese composer, musician and actor Kayama Yuzo in 1965.

As a guitarist, he took inspiration from the The Ventures, and performed surf music in the 1960s on a Mosrite guitar.  “Kimi to Itsumademo” is one of his best known  compositions, selling over two million copies.

Both the Ventures and the Shadows recorded this song. In my arrangement I tried to incorporate aspects of both versions.
