He cites Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" as being particularly inspiring, and went on to master modern percussion and guitar.Ģ006: Jūnigatsu no Love Songs: Complete Box Having only listened to classical and enka while growing up, Gackt didn't become interested in rock music until he was a young adult. Gackt is known for being very competitive, and when he learned that a friend was also learning piano it led to Gackt taking up the piano again so he could be better. It would take another four years until his parents allowed him to quit. Gackt's musical education began at age three, when his parents initiated his classical piano education, which he grew tired of four years later. He made the acquaintance of several terminally ill children, some of whom died during his stay. At the age of ten, Gackt was hospitalized with a gastrointestinal condition and had to remain at the hospital for a prolonged time. After this near-death experience, he claimed to have the ability to see and speak with deceased family members, a notion which was dismissed by his parents. His father was also a musician (trumpet) and his mother was a teacher.Īccording to Gackt's autobiography, he was a mischievous child and enjoyed taking risks at age seven he nearly drowned while swimming off the coast of Okinawa. Gackt was born on Jin Okinawa (though he said, at one point, that he was really born in 1540).
