Well, Merry Christmas to everyone out there. I just popped in the turkey so I won't have to worry about that for a few hours, and therefore I've got some time to blog here before the entire family shows up for dinner.
For Akina Nakamori(中森明菜)fans, it looks we all got a very nice present in our stockings yesterday when the lady herself released her latest digital single "Merry Christmas, My Heart". Composed by Akina herself and written by HZ Village, it's a contemplative piano ballad that rather hits the Xmas heart in the right spot. No Santa Claus, no raucous partying and hopefully no major mourning due to heartbreak. Simply a clear night and prayer to the loved one.
Glad to see she's well enough to release music, Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteA nice song, very much what I would expect from Akina. It's *very* exciting to see her being active again.
ReplyDeleteHope this is the beginning of a new happier chapter in her career.
DeleteEven though Christmas has come and gone in my neck of the woods (or forest), this song still makes for a great stocking stuffer and something pleasant to listen to while sitting next to a fireplace (or maybe an electric heater) and drinking some hot tea or hot cocoa.
DeleteYes, that would be the ideal environment for this one by Akina.
