This one is going to be about a trip I took to San Francisco. In particular, it will address my visit to Japan Town in San Francisco. By the way, sometimes they refer to it as Nihon Machi. I was on vacation with a family member for...

An unexpected place for music to come from One of my interests, besides J-pop, is the Junior Eurovision Song Contest, JESC. They have held this contest for about 10 years, at various venues in greater Europe. One thing I like about this event, besides the music and dancing, is that I get a chance to learn a little about where the artists come from, particularly the smaller countries in Europe. One...

Unsung hero of Morning Musume Greetings! I hope everyone is doing well. It looks like it is going to be another warm and sunny day in SoCal.

I mentioned a couple of times that I became familiar with Morning Musume (MM) thanks to the PV for “Joshi Kashimashi Monogatari” (JKM). It was through this PV that I got to learn who the members were, at least at the time of that single. I al...

Favorite Japanese Words I’d like to switch gears with this post. My aim is to have fun! OK, so, without any further ado, here is my topic . . . MY FAVORITE JAPANESE WORDS! :good:

My #1 favorite would have to be ‘doki doki.’ It means ‘fast beating heart,’ or ‘heart palpitations.’ It seems to come in handy for lyricists, one can hear it frequently in songs. Consider “Night of...
