H...Hi! <br />This is an Akira Inoue song: ヒンデンブルグ号へようこそ <br />How would you transliterate its title? I only know that the first word is "Hindenburg".<br />Thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501670448657416824.post-23410484285531642532015-04-14T13:03:11.581-04:002015-04-14T13:03:11.581-04:00That New Wave Four title is curious. I'm sure ...That New Wave Four title is curious. I'm sure the critics who came up with that had City Pop (or New Music as I heard it was called back then) in mind when they grouped those four together, especially after I listened to the Suzuki song you profiled. Inoue is the only one who fits into New Wave as a genre, though his debut album and many of his collaborations with other artists have that obvious City Pop groove. Interesting dichotomy between the two areas of music, I must say. And I definitely agree with the Ippu-Do and Takahashi comparisons.nikalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03370403001114836904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501670448657416824.post-90150589749438317482015-04-13T22:57:43.808-04:002015-04-13T22:57:43.808-04:00Hi, nikala.

Pretty fascinating so far considering that all I knew about Inoue was his songwriting work for people like Junichi Inagaki. And you are quite right about his interesting status as being one of the New Wave Four. I've yet to hear anything from Yudai Suzuki, but Inoue as a singer is definitely more New Wave than City Pop.<br /><br />Listening to "Flying Dutchman" and "Adrian Blue", I think Inoue was closer to folks like Ippu-do and Yukihiro Takahashi in his delivery (he's quite the balladeer) and music. And as for the latter song, that guitar in there sounds somewhat early Anzen Chitai-ish...quite mysterious.J-Canuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551828383307840403noreply@blogger.com
