It's been over a year since we've had Yuiko Tsubokura（坪倉惟子）back on the blog, but she's here now. This time, it's for the B-side of her November 1985 debut single, "Cry for the Moon". The A-side is a smoldering power pop ballad but the nocturnal "Kuchibiru Yuugi" (Lip Play) has some more kick in the City Pop department. Written by Yoshimasa Shibayama（柴山好正）and composed by Tsubokura herself, "Kuchibiru Yuugi" still has plenty of sex appeal thanks to the singer's delivery.
Although "Cry for the Moon" got onto Tsubokura's debut album "Always in Love", I'm not sure whether "Kuchibiru Yuugi" ever made it onto any original album. Her J-Wiki file doesn't even show any BEST compilations at this point, but if anyone here knows if "Kuchibiru Yuugi" resides anywhere outside of the B-side, please let me know.
