As for the above video, the four ladies get together first to sing a harmonious version of Mel Torme's classic "The Christmas Song" before going into "Merry Christmas To You".
Written by Nagai and Karashima and composed by Karashima, the song reminds me of some of those large gatherings of Western singers for "We Are The World" and "Do They Know It's Christmas?" which took place back in the 80s.
This is the live performance of the song, minus Mariko Nagai.
Incredible track I wouldn't have known about without this blog or a random encounter in a Tokyo used CD store. This blog is incredible. Thank you.
