I just realized that I haven't written about 80s aidoru Yasuko Kuwata（桑田靖子）since 2013 through her single "My Joyful Heart", so allow me to rectify the situation.
This isn't a Kuwata single but a track from her third album "Vacation"（バケーション）released in June 1984. "Ku-gatsu ga Kite mo" (Even When September Comes) is a spritely summer song that launches with a bit of happy West Coast flavour. Her J-Wiki article stated that the aidoru had a good high-toned delivery and I'd say that "Ku-gatsu ga Kite mo" is a nice reflection of those vocals. The song was written by Machiko Ryu（竜真知子）and composed by Wataru Kuniyasu（国安わたる）.
From reading that J-Wiki article about her, I found out that her overall catchphrase was "The No. 5 Cutest Girl in Class" which struck me as being rather insulting and mystifying. Even on Kuwata's own blog, the singer-turned-tarento has refuted it as words that someone came up with.
