I realize that it's been over 30 ...Hi, Noelle.<br /><br />I realize that it's been over 30 years since I first saw George on the 1981 Kohaku Utagassen, but it's only with this video that I've realized that he's no longer the earnest deshi but the veteran enka singer now. He looks very dapper in the suit although his face in the video illustrates that he's been through the wringer.<br /><br />Good point that you've included "Pop" among the categories because I don't think "Yozakura Aika" sounds like a typical enka song...there's a certain key shift in there that hit me as being somewhat different.J-Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551828383307840403noreply@blogger.com
