Asami Kado -- O-suki ni Semete(お好きにせめて)

 

Well, I had a bit of drama earlier today when I discovered that I couldn't log into my Jme account for some reason. I sent an SOS to Customer Service and got a quick reply that there was a system error somewhere on their side. Happily, things have been resolved, so thank you, Jme. I can catch the Kohaku Utagassen.

For the past several years, it's been taking care of home base here at nights. I don't go out all that much anymore. The pandemic was one reason behind it but age and overall fatigue in the evenings are other factors. But I know that with New Year's Eve coming the next day, there will be the parties happening everywhere...as long as folks can take a bit of traveling through frigid weather.

Asami Kado(門あさ美)certainly sounds like she's started New Year's Eve a night early. From her July 1981 3rd album "Semi-Nude"(セミヌード), I offer you "O-suki ni Semete" (At Least Do As You Like or perhaps At Least Love Me) which was written and composed by Kado with arrangement by Ichizo Seo(瀬尾一三). Unlike the Fashion Music that I usually associate her with, this is City Pop with that samba twist. I can imagine a conga line forming right now on the party floor.
