Matte Kudasai

Matte Kudasai is a single by the progressive rock band King Crimson, released in 1981. Its tracks are from the album Discipline (1981).

The latest versions of Discipline contain two versions of "Matte Kudasai". On the original releases, just one version was included. That version omitted a guitar part by Robert Fripp. "Matte Kudasai (alternative version)" has the guitar part included.

Adrian Belew applies a slide and echo to his guitar to simulate the sound of seagulls at least twice in the song. Once in the beginning and, again, near the end.

"Matte Kudasai" means "please wait" in Japanese.
