Catalog context

MORNING GLORY: the written work

Authorship and composition, read through FOR YOU.

Symbolic editorial illustration shared with the MORNING GLORY essay
Shared original AI editorial illustration from “MORNING GLORY: More Than One Home”. A visual metaphor, not an archival photograph, master-tape image or original cover for this entry.

“MORNING GLORY” is cataloged here as a written musical work, separate from any particular performance, recording or physical issue. The documented words and music are both credited to Tatsuro Yamashita. Keeping these roles explicit makes it possible to follow the authors even when a performer’s name is the most prominent name on a release.

The explicit work relationship leads to the Atlas song entry “MORNING GLORY”, associated with Tatsuro Yamashita’s 1982 album “FOR YOU”. The work entry preserves the authorship relationship, while the song essay examines the musical context. Neither the album’s year nor a later reissue date should automatically be read as a separately verified composition date.

The explicitly linked edition positions are BVJL-90 / A4. Those positions tell us where the associated song is listed; they do not demonstrate that every issue uses an identical performance, mix or master.

Editorial note

This contextual introduction uses the catalog evidence attached to the sources below. Release, position, composition and recording identities remain distinct; a database identifier is not an independent audio test. See the related essay for the fuller treatment.
