aka. "The Sound of the Waves"
[ listen ]
In this pretty ballad by Hiroshi Uchiyamada and Cool Five you can hear the voices of the cool five imitating the sound of ocean waves as they advance, crash upon the shore, and then recede. According to my Japanese friend, "uminari" is the word for the sound the waves make, but we couldn't come up with an English-language word that means the same thing. This song made it to #45 on the Japanese singles charts when it was released back in 1974.
