High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Japan were an English music group formed in 1974 at Catford Boys' School in Catford, South London. The band achieved success in the late 1970s and early 1980s, when they were often associated with the burgeoning New Romantic fashion movement (though the band denied any such connection). They achieved several UK hits in the early 1980s, most notably "Ghosts" and their cover version of "I Second That Emotion", which were top ten hits in 1982. They have been cited as an important influence on 1980s synthpop bands such as Duran Duran and Camouflage.
