David was aware of Oshima's interest in Mishima's work and gave a nod to this by using the title from Mishima's book...

Forbidden Colours - is a Japanese term for homosexuality, it's also the title of Yukio Mishima's famous ( in Japan )novel about the homosexual awakening of a beautiful youth ( a fact Sakamoto, and I am pretty sure, Sylvain could not have been unaware of ) It's not the subtext, as much as the main theme.

I have to say a vocal doesnt seem to fit in here. It feels like it was added later
