''Murdered By The Music'' is the second album by Music/YukihiroTakahashi. Released in 1980, it is the first album he released while being part of Music/YellowMagicOrchestra (and for that reason a lot of artists affiliated to the band appear on this album).
In a stark contrast to the CityPop / {{Chanson}} vibes of ''{{Music/Saravah}}'', ''Murdered by the Music'' leans closer to what Yukihiro wrote for the Technopop trio he was part of (with some {{Ska}} thrown in as well). This is the first album in his discography which is exclusively sung in English (thanks to Chris Mosdell writing all of the lyrics). Its lead single was the TitleTrack which also had its own music video.
