Rainy BlueTokunaga Hideaki
Although it’s been nearly 30 years since its release, it’s still a timeless masterpiece.
The lyrics are actually quite dark, but Tokunaga’s soothing voice seeps into a heart that’s battered and worn out.
More recently, it’s also become well-known thanks to a cover by EXILE’s ATSUSHI.
The time I spent with youMoriguchi Hiroko
Amazingly, Moriguchi had a strong admiration for entertainment from a young age and eagerly participated in events like singing contests.
In her teenage years, she belonged to a group called School Mates and worked as a backup dancer.
She took many auditions but kept getting rejected.
Placing second in one competition led to her debut.
She made her debut as an idol singer by performing the later opening theme song for the renowned anime Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam.
Embraced by the wintry windKatase Nana
A number covered by Nana Katase of a classic hit by Kyoko Koizumi.
Although Nana Katase is strongly associated with her image as an actress, she has actually released both original songs and cover tracks as a singer, too! The cover album “EXTENDED,” which includes this song, features many other famous covers as well.
Compared to Kyoko Koizumi’s original, the trance-like melody of this version gives a completely different impression, and just listening to it seems like it could brighten the sorrow of a hopeless, unrequited love.
