Yesterday, it's one of national holidays. It's exceptionally cold. Winter is coming soon. I felt like getting new music and went out to a CD rental shop. As I said before here, we can rent CDs. It's surprising for some of you right? These day, I'm into music outside Japan. But, this is one of exceptions. Yes, she's Aoyama Thelma(青山テルマ). I'm not big fan of her but I have really wanted to try her latest album titled 'Emotions'.
AWESOME!!!!!
Usually, I don't listen to every song in one album but any song is great in her album. I'm even thinking of BUYing this album. It's worth doing so. Yeah, seems I'm really fan of her now.
I see she's so popular overseas. For example, her songs have high ranking in Yahoo Taiwan. Now, somehow because she doesn't release new music, her name doesn't come up in TV and media. It's like she wins wide popularity here.
I recommended her songs to my friend then talked about music etc...It's comfortable holiday.
I'm watching Kohaku uta gassen(紅白歌合戦), annual famous music show on TV.
We'll go to new year in 15 mins after this music program.
2008.
I started this year in MN, USA.
(I never forget the temperature on that day. minus28℃!)
I visited many places---San Francisco, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Minneapolis, Chicago (twice!), Beijing China---
I met many people---I don't say their names here. When I had hard time, you guys helped me a lot.
2008 is almost gone.
I really thank you guys.
I will give you one of favorite songs this year, GIFT by Mr.Children. I listened this song and played it with piano often. (Right now, Mr.Children appeared on music show to sing this song!)
