Ayaka -- OK! GO!

 

Mother's Day was the theme for the most recent episode of "Uta Con"(うたコン)a couple of days ago, and singer-songwriter Ayaka(絢香)was on stage to provide an old favourite as her contribution to the holiday for mothers. 

During the talk segment, she also had her turn on the microphone. She's been taking care of a couple of daughters as a mother herself which includes having the entire family learn how to downhill ski. Then, she introduced her most recent single which got out on May 6th titled "OK! GO!". Sounding quite upbeat and inspirational, it has an arrangement which reminds me of some Motown soul from the 1970s; maybe there's even a bit of gospel soul beating in there as well. Cute video, to boot; it looks like unmalicious Monty Python.
