This channel introduces Ai Matsubara's singing works, Ai Towano's songs, and Takao Yamada's songs. "Showa Kare Susuki" is a work for which the copyright transfer contract with Diamond Music Publishing Co., Ltd. was amicably terminated in July 1989. There is no contract between Polydor Records (now Universal) and Diamond Music Publishing (lyrics department) for "Showa Kare Susuki". The copyright of "Showa Kare Susuki" belongs to lyricist Takao Yamada. Therefore, his wife Ai Matsubara, with the permission of Takao Yamada, the copyright holder of "Showa Kare Susuki", edited and produced video content for listeners and created a unique MV. This song is the origin of our music. Thank you for your support. Thank you very much for your encouragement and wonderful comments. "Showa Kare Susuki" Lyrics by Yamada Takao Music by Mutsu Hiroshi Arranged by Ibe Harumi Mutsu Hiroshi is a composer known for "Goodnight Baby" and "In the Rain", and was Yamada's boss at the music publishing company, Polydor director Matsumura Norio. Yamada was a labor writer at the time and also his assistant director. When Yamada was looking for a singer to sing a duet with Tokugawa Ichiro, an enka singer who had been struggling for several years, it was Sakura who invited a woman named Peko, who was singing at a supper club in Shinjuku where aspiring singers performed, to "sing?" Yamada wrote "Showa Kare Susuki" with the idea of ​​making a song that would make everyone sad and cry, so he probably intuitively felt that it was perfect for her sad voice. Now that we are living with corona, it seems like the times are repeating themselves, predicting a turbulent world like the one after the oil crisis at that time. It seems to be a song people want to hear in this changing era, and I'm very happy to have received so many requests for it. Because this was a work from the previous year (1974), it missed out on being entered into the 17th Record Awards despite being ranked No. 1 on the Oricon charts, but it was a dignified performance with a magnificent performance. However, it was clear that they had the confidence to win the Cable Music Award that year. Compared to recent Record Awards, this was a time when sales were linked to the award. Incidentally, the grand prize that year was awarded to Fuse Akira's "Scent of Cyclamen," which was ranked No. 2 on the Oricon charts. 0:00~ Appearing at the Record Awards 1st, I succumbed to poverty 1:36~ 2nd verse, I endured even when I was trampled 3:00~ 3rd verse, Throw away this me "Showa Withered Pampas Grass" Lyrics by Yamada Takao (man) I succumbed to poverty (woman) No, I lost to society (man and woman) I was chased out of this town too Maybe I should just die beautifully I have no regrets because I lived to the best of my ability Not even a flower will bloom The two of us are withered pampas grass (man) We endured even when we were trampled (woman) Yes, even as we were hurt (man and woman) We savored our loneliness and talked about having dreams We don't wish for happiness but we want to be like everyone else Gazing at a shooting star The two of us are withered pampas grass (man) Throw away this me (woman) Why do I love you so much (man and woman) We decided that day that we would die together Tears well up in the cold winds of society We endure the pain The two are withered pampas grass #Sakura and Ichiro #Showa withered pampas grass #Yamada Takao ☆Matsubara Lab (singing school) Singer training https://bran-ns.com ☆Matsubara Ai's shop https://cipfrontier.thebase.in ☆Matsubara Ai's MagMag email newsletter https://www.mag2.com/m/0001665573.html ☆Matsubara Ai's note https://note.mu/aies1209 ☆Matsubara Ai's songs are Chappy https://www.ameblo.jp/1209ok ☆Matsubara Ai's Instagram / aimatubara ☆Matsubara Ai's Twitter / brandnewai ☆Matsubara Ai's Facebook / ai.matubara.1 Current release status 1 Sakura and Ichiro 2 Crown Orchestra 3 Hippare All Stars 4 Misora ​​Hibari 5 Mabuchi Yujiro and All Stars 6 Komadori Sisters 7 Kamon Tatsuo 8 Itsuki Hiroshi 9 Lee Sung-ae 10 SAM TAYLOR 11 Yoshio Kimura 12 Columbia Orchestra 13 Takeshi Terauchi 14 Frank Nagai / Kazuko Matsuo 15 SAM TAYLOR & HIS ORCHESTRA 16 Naomi Chiaki 17 Ensemble Jasmine 18 Yasuyuki Omura 19 Enami Aka 20 Kazuko Matsuo 21 Naomi Tani 22 Etsuko Shimazu 23 Junko Asabuki 24 Yoshio Kimura and the Beards 25 Takeshi Terauchi & the Blue Jeans 26 Yutaka Akiba & the Arrow Knights 27 Akemi Misawa 28 Shiro Miya 29 Aki Yashiro 30 Frank Nagai 31 Lord Kings
