The Year of the Horse

Y'know...I should have posted this one up right on New Year's Day almost a month ago, but then again, I was rather busy with family stuff on January 1st. But I digress. This year is once again the Year of the Horse; people who were born in that year are supposedly responsible, confident and agreeable.

As such, I'm not sure whether I can find any kayo kyoku that are responsible, confident and agreeable, but at least I can find some songs that have some sort of relationship to horses.

(1970) Salty Sugar -- Hashire Koutarou（走れコウタロー）

(1980) Yellow Magic Orchestra -- Rydeen (雷電）

(1988) Yuki Saito & Takao Kisugi -- ORACION - Inori （ORACION -祈り-）

(1996) Koji Tamaki -- Den'en （田園）

I realize that this last one may not have anything directly to do with horses, but dang it, the rhythms here just remind me so much of taking a running ride on a steed through the countryside!
