Lately I've been listening to Olivia and Anna Tsuchiya thanks to my obsession with NANA the anime and manga.
But then I also stubeld upon a singer called Tainaka Sachi, she has such a pretty voice it made me miss my singing lessons embarrassed

It's never late to learn singing, they say.

It isn't very expensive if you join a choir. Then you can sing on your own at home using the same warm up exercises.

I'm not saying I can sing Grin

I even stopped to go to the choir.

But I find singing therapeutic. Sometimes I just moan and roar. Like Totoro.
It makes me hungry and happy, when all kinds of emotions unravel.
I'm sure eveyone can find that useful.
But I couldn't do that in front of other people.

Still, when we had this Oh, oh, noh, noh - exercise with the choir and others laughed at my overly sad expressions - I thought that maybe I could pursue a career as a weeping lady. You know, those women who some cultures use in funerals.
They start crying and the others will follow. Feelings spread. Mourning happens.

It would be fun to join a choir again but again my lack of time

Angela Aki released a new album while I was in Japan.
But listening to many records at a record store I ended up buying Bonnie Pink's Thinking out loud.

There was an interesting CD of a female duo there, 歌ぐすい was the name of the group, I guess...
One of the girls played gitar, the other shamisen.
That sounded cool, but I wanted something funnier.

A friend of mine is going crazy after her boyfriend bought her tickets to Angela Aki's christmas concert, and now Ainu-san shows interest. Usually that's a sign of a possible target for my next Bookoff excursion. See, I just bought "Fruits Basket" DVD boxed set and the latest Ghibli animation, and now I have 130 euros worth of points on my Tsutaya/Bookoff point card and I by god I have no idea what to do with all that!! I could get 220 manga albums, or 22 CD's, or 16 DVD's for free!
Grin

After hearing her songs in Yokohama's Chinatown I kind of got fancy on Alan. She only has two songs out (that I know of), and I already like them both. Can't wait for the album! I hope it comes out for christmas.

The "main" single, 明日への讃歌 (Ashita he no sanka) is on Youtube.
The second, which I like even more, 桜モダン, can also be found on Youtube, but for that there is only the pathetic slideshow/music track, and I'm not linking to those, sorry.
