Not that I could ever see myself affording a trip in the area, but this first song for this week's edition of the KKP urban contemporary makes me think of a languid and luxurious vacation along the French Riviera. Have a look at this video from Luxury Travel Trends, though, if you're seeking a getaway.
Listening to Kei (Kay) Ishiguro's（石黒ケイ）"Weekend Love" from her 1989 album "Amant", the luxurious sophisticated pop melody practically weaves its own chaise lounge for listeners and might even call for some champagne. Prolific lyricist Yoshiko Miura（三浦徳子）came up with the lyrics while Masamichi Amano（天野正道）composed the music. Amano's credits include co-producer for the soundtrack of the anime "Miyuki"（みゆき）earlier in that decade and then composer for the cinematic version of "Battle Royale" in 2000.
Ishiguro's "Amant" would be the final album for the singer for several years until her "Live Selection" was released in 2004.
