Japanese stuff

  • Went on vacation to Japan where I have visited the Museum Misora Hibari. She's world famous in Japan and the place can be considered a Japanese "Graceland" Died at an early age (in her fifties) and became thus a legend and even more famous and loved after she passed away. See for yourself here. http://www.misorahibari.com/?lang=en I stumbled into her when I found this band on youtube. Apparently it's a cover and the original is this one: I like the original one better. The wailing organ and uncomfortable dancing by Hibari san make it even more endearing. The name of this song is "Blood Red Sun" and is about love that's in the air in the summer and on the beach or something. I think it is rather befitting since the sun doesn't show itself here in Holland but is blazing away in Japan. Dream on you all............
