Wadatsumi no Ki (Japan Version)
March 13, 2003 Quite Possibly my Favorite songs of all time.I was a student in Okinawa when this song came out, and heard just the tail end (about 30 seconds) of it on a radio program. I was so impressed by it I went directly to the local record store and purchased it. That was almost a year ago and I still listen to it at least once a day. Being a fan of minyo, it seemed like this song was made just for my tastes. It's blends minyo and with popular Japanese music, and does so rather sucessfully. It does this sucessfully because of her pure and well refined voice. As many other reviewers have mentioned she is considered "a once in a century" voice. I must say that I can agree with this without any reservation. More amazing is that she was able to achieve stardom and fame for her song foregoing the usual route taken by japanese musicians. That of gaining fame by having a corporate tie in for the song, as in a commercial spot selling cars or something to that effect. She was able to get noticed by word of mouth, or in other words because of her talent. I think that this song will stand the test of time not be forgotten a few weeks or monthes later like many of the other sucessful songs that make up the average J- pop top 100 lists. I consider this a must buy for anyone who appreciates good musicianship. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This)
