After the music festival has successfully concluded, it is time to harvest.
Not to mention things like reputation and topicality, the two participating record companies, Warner Pioneer and Polygon, are considering how to allocate and plan for those underground bands in the future, and even take advantage of this momentum to consider cooperating with Watanabe Production
, hold competitions such as band selection.
During the music festival, national media and media from overseas all applied for on-site interviews. At that time, the company responsible for the on-site video recording was Boligain Records.
PolyKain was formerly a company under Fuji Sankei responsible for audio and video production and distribution. It was experienced in this area, and it coincided with the period of friendly cooperation between Watanabe Production and PolyKain, so this work fell to them.
superior.
Although a live video was recorded, it is considered a routine archive this time. Although the footage will be exclusively disclosed on Fuji TV later, there is definitely no plan to release it.
…
On this day, Miyuki Nakajima went to Polygon for the live video recording of her previous tour "Song Calendar".
Who is Miyuki Nakajima? She debuted in 1975. Her performance as a singer was mediocre when she debuted. Instead, her songs as a black singer provided to Ken Naoko, a famous singer at the time, became best-selling and she gained recognition as a young composer.
After two years of being on the street, Nakajima Miyuki released a single called "わかれうた" (Parting Song) in 1977. As a result, this single miraculously defeated the then-popular idol group Pinklady and became
chart-topping single.
Since then, Miyuki Nakajima, who came from Sapporo, Hokkaido and graduated from the Literature Department of Fuji Women's University, might have become a Chinese teacher if she had not been a singer, and she began her golden period as a singer and composer.
Having said all that, the name's strong popularity in China probably comes from the saying that it "saved the Hong Kong music scene".
This statement is obviously not responsible enough. Xiangjiang has many outstanding songwriters. However, the Xiangjiang music scene once covered many Miyuki Nakajima songs. This is also true.
The reason why I caught Miyuki Nakajima singing covers like Mr. Ge from a lamb... more than seventy songs? I still have to talk about the issue of the record company.
Since Miyuki Nakajima's debut, her management contract has been with Yamaha Music, which has been kind to her, but her record contract has been with Polygon. (Note)
The period when Xiangjiang began to cover Miyuki Nakajima on a large scale roughly coincided with the period when Polly Cartoon pioneered in Xiangjiang.
When you are new to the market, nothing is more efficient than covering works that have already been tested. Miyuki Nakajima is a talented girl from Boligain. Using her songs to sell cover rights makes it easy to deal with copyright issues, saving worry and effort.
…
"Song Calendar" is the title of the tour concert held by Miyuki Nakajima in 1985 and 1986.
Miyuki Nakajima, who has reached the peak of her career, has a new pursuit of music. In the past few years, she has devoted herself to creative exploration. In the past, she mainly focused on folk and neo-folk styles, but recently she has greatly increased the rock style in her songs.
, for fans who have been familiar with her before, they may be shocked by her.
The two "Song Calendar" tours in 1985 and 1986 coincided with her creative frenzy, and her style naturally tended towards rock. When she debuted, she was holding an acoustic guitar and was obviously at the peak of her beauty, but she had facial paralysis. During these two years,
Carrying an electric guitar during a tour and collaborating with rock musicians was a joy to watch.
However, such a fun and exciting tour is faced with the situation that the video cannot be released to the public.
There was no video of the 1985 concert. Although the 1986 concert was videotaped, something went wrong. For Miyuki Nakajima, who pursues perfection in all aspects, it may not be possible to release a flawed video.
The song's live CD was on the release schedule, but she hadn't completely given up yet, so she and Polly Goodbye proposed to fix it as much as possible. As a result, when she came today, she got the following reply:
"I'm sorry, Nakajima-san, I'm afraid no matter what, I can't reach 100%."
"Yeah." Nakajima Miyuki was a little disappointed, but she still thanked the staff, "Thank you for your hard work."
The staff was a little embarrassed, "It didn't come in handy in the end..."
The two sides exchanged some more pleasantries. At this time, the staff member remembered and asked, "Does Nakajima-san know about the previous naonのyaon?"
"Is it that women's rock festival?"
"That's right!" The staff member said to Nakajima Miyuki, as if trying to remedy the situation, "We are responsible for the live video of the music festival. Are you interested in taking a look, Nakajima-san? It just so happens that you have also been working on rock music recently.
test."
Nakajima Miyuki was somewhat interested, "I won't cause any trouble to you, will I?"
"Of course not." The staff member breathed a sigh of relief as he successfully aroused Miyuki Nakajima's interest and put down what he was doing. "I'm going to make preparations and go to the screening room next door to take a look."
The whole video was very long, so the staff naturally did not want to play it from the beginning, but pulled out a few videos and brought them over. The staff wanted to play the finale of Joan Jett first, and Miyuki Nakajima suggested: "Since it is the finale, why not
Also played as the finale.”
There is a point in saying this. When eating a set menu, eat the most delicious food first, as other foods will lose their appeal.
"It makes sense." The staff member smiled and rummaged around, "Let's read this part first."
After starting to play, a band that seemed a bit strange at first glance appeared on the screen, with a female lead singer and two male musicians. However, the female lead singer was wearing strange clothes, as fancy as a circus person, and the keyboard player was in a suit.
, more like going on stage to announce something than going on stage to perform.
Strange as it is, Miyuki Nakajima found it very interesting and looked forward to what they could bring. At the same time, the male musician in a suit on the screen gave the signal to start.
…
That musician in the suit is really powerful.
After watching this video, Miyuki Nakajima sighed sincerely in her heart.
"That's awesome." The staff also muttered.
The original intention was to save the delicious pudding as the finale, but in the end, I tasted the extraordinary deliciousness at the very beginning.
Next, Nakajima Miyuki watched two more videos. Although each has its own merits, for her, she saw different styles from bands or singers of different styles, just like the differences between different cuisines.
Different flavors like that.
She was not disappointed.
But despite this, while applauding Joan Jett's performance, Miyuki Nakajima still recalled the feeling of watching the first band's performance, especially the strength of the musician in a suit who seemed to be breaking free.
It shocked her.
After finishing watching, she thanked the staff. After walking out of Boligain, she stood on the roadside waiting for a taxi. She felt warm in her heart and wanted to express something.
A taxi drove slowly over, and the address given by Nakajima Miyuki was the address of her regular recording studio, where she still had work on the new album waiting to be completed.
Sitting in the car, she let herself go and unconsciously looked at everything outside the car window. The steel frames of high-rise buildings passing by in a hurry, the relaxed and fashionable young people, and the hurried office workers with expressionless faces. These people
Also suits and leather shoes.
At this moment, inspiration suddenly burst into my mind.
Miyuki Nakajima took out the notepad she carried with her from her bag and wrote a short sentence on it: "Rock and roll under the suit."
