For a morning in the digital city, it's Wake Pop!
Wake up! Wake up!
Do wake up, digital city!
Mami's bringing her treasured morning just for you.
Coffee, salad, morning dew.
Wake Pop with Mami's songs!
Translating this from the cover of the 1982 special promotion single and debut single for singer-songwriter Mami Kikuchi（菊地真美）, it's obvious the copyrighter here perhaps had too much Mountain Dew for breakfast.😵
But in any case, I'm here to talk about "Morning Dew" which was written by Kikuchi and composed by Yasunori Soryo（惣領泰則）. The arrangement and the singer's vocals make it sound a little calmer and more relaxing than the hyper copy adorning the single cover which should be the atmosphere for the average Sunday brunch. You can compare this one with the B-side that I covered years ago in 2019, "Neo Silk Road"（ネオ・シルクロード）which has a more City Pop bent. Both songs were included on her "Morning Dew" album released also in 1982.
