On New Year's Eve, Junko and her daughter celebrated the New Year together.
The food box for the New Year's dinner was bought from an underground shopping street, and it was a bit crude. In addition, there was a small cream cake. Junko cut off the piece decorated with strawberries, and put the plate on it with her daughter's expectant eyes.
in front of her.
My daughter clapped her hands and cheered: "That's great!"
As soon as she got the cake back, she stared at the strawberries decorated on the top of the cake, and now she could finally "taste" what she wanted.
During dinner, the TV was set to TBS TV station. Like many families, they regard the Record Awards and the Red and White Song Contest as events that cannot be missed on New Year's Eve.
At tonight's Record Awards, Akina Nakamori became the first singer to enter the awards' history.
Junko is actually not a fan of Akina Nakamori, but Junko is also happy for her to be selected into the hall, and admires her for being able to stand upright on the stage with such an image and achieve such an achievement.
As a woman, Junko felt that she was also inspired by Akina Nakamori.
My daughter likes fun. No matter who wins an award or performs on stage, she always looks happy. She was a little disappointed when DreamseTrue won the Newcomer Award, but a representative from the record company accepted the award on her behalf.
"I thought I could see DreamseTrue twice tonight!" she said.
Junko comforted her, "We can see it again later at the Red and White Song Concert." She knew in her heart that the reason why the band did not attend was because of the self-restraint order issued by Tianlu due to his critical illness. The song "So happy! So happy! I love it so much!"
》Because it was forced to be temporarily sealed.
Children don't have any long-term personality. They often have three-minute fever. Last month, they liked Hikaru Genji, but this month they became Kudo Shizuka.
However, children can sometimes be very affectionate. For example, their love for a band has always been maintained.
However, from beginning to end, Junko, who was not financially well-off, only bought the single tape for her daughter. She did not buy any further works released by the band.
At this year's Record Awards, the most important award was awarded to Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi's "Cheers".
Her daughter fully expected that her favorite Shizuka Kudo would win the award, but Junko felt that "Cheers" deserved the award. However, for Junko, who was not married and had not received the understanding of her parents, "Cheers" was her first film.
She already has songs that have nothing to do with her life.
When the grand prize was announced, her daughter asked her: "Mom, can I change the channel?"
After getting a positive answer, she climbed out of the warm kotatsu, quickly changed the station to NHK, quickly got into the kotatsu, and let out a long sigh: "It's so warm~"
The little child's old-fashioned sighs were quite funny.
Junko couldn't help laughing.
…
On the TV, the Red and White Song Concert started.
The opening was a taiko drum performance, the sound of the drums was majestic, but on such a stage, it also seemed a bit dull, as if it was setting the tone for tonight's Kohaku Song Festival at the beginning. Because there is a self-respect order, this year everyone has to
Be more restrained.
However, for the audience in front of the TV, the mood will not be affected at all.
The same goes for Junko. To her, the locusts are an extremely distant existence. They are not as worrying and praying for the customers in the store where she works every day when someone encounters misfortune.
The drums ended, the stage lit up, and the hosts Akiko Wada and Yuzo Kayama appeared on the stage.
"Does this drum sound very powerful?"
The two were making opening greetings on the stage.
Kayama Yuzo said: "It's a very manly drum sound."
Wada Akiko immediately refused to be outdone and replied: "Really? I feel the woman's enthusiasm from it."
As soon as the hosts of the red and white groups met, they started talking to each other in a decent manner. Although it was essentially a year-end party, since the name was called "Red and White Song Contest", someone had to be responsible for coming up with something to compete with.
Posture.
The host plays this role, taking the place of the singers in "competing" with each other's words.
The red group won last year, so this year, the host of the white group, Kayama Yuu, just said how to take away the winning flag in three words, while Wada Akiko expressed the confidence of "you can't even think about it" with the ease of a winner.
After a short but not long opening greeting, the two hosts shook hands before the game. Then, the singer finally entered the stage.
Last year the red group won the championship, and this year the winning group will take the lead.
The first one was Miho Nakayama, followed closely by Shizuka Kudo.
The two girls also held hands in front of the camera and seemed to have a very good relationship.
When her daughter saw Shizuka Kudo, she cheered: "Shizuka-chan!" She was so enthusiastic that she seemed to be sitting at a Kohaku Song Festival instead of in this small Japanese-style room.
The selected female singers walked out from the side of the stage in order following the host's introduction.
Next……
The camera panned over, but before the host could speak, his daughter yelled: "It's Mr. Giraffe!"
The giraffe man is too conspicuous. As long as he appears in the camera, he is the first thing to attract attention. However, even without the giraffe hood, the men who appear in the red team lineup are eye-catching enough.
This is especially true when walking on stage and standing with other female singers in the red group.
…
"The next person to appear is one of the most popular representatives of this year's band, DreamseTrue... Mr. Giraffe is quite eye-catching."
Following the host's introduction, the band took to the stage.
The positions were also rehearsed in advance. The three of them consciously stood in the back row, leaving the front row for the big names and beautiful idols who appeared later.
Before entering the stage, Miwa-chan was finally willing to let go of Shinichi Iwahashi's hand and did not hold hands on stage in front of the camera.
Shinichi Iwahashi wore a hood, so he didn't need to deliberately maintain any facial expressions on stage. Not only that, he could also openly look at the singers and artists who came on stage after them.
Coming in behind DreamseTrue is Sakamoto Fuyumi, who also made her debut at the Kohaku Utakara. After her, there are basically big-name and veteran singers.
There were two enka singers again, and then, the next one to appear was Akina Nakamori.
Like all the singers who appeared today, she had specially prepared costumes for the opening. Shinichi Iwahashi was on the stage, watching her come out and walking over, and remembered the "see you next time" they said when they met yesterday.
The next time we see you is tomorrow.
Even so, although we were face to face today, there was no opportunity for communication.
Akina Nakamori is so popular and well-known that she needs no introduction. She can spark cheers whenever she appears, even in the venue of Kohaku Utakara.
She stepped onto the stage and approached the red group.
The giraffe man who was also extremely conspicuous on the stage stood opposite her and could be seen at a glance. Nakamori Akina's eyes flickered over him, and she walked to her position and stood facing the stage.
During this gap, Sachiko Kobayashi, who was leading the group, also appeared, and all the singers in the red group were introduced.
…
After the introduction of the red group, the music on the TV started playing again, and then the white group came on stage.
Junko was looking forward to it because she could see Hikari Genji appear tonight. On the other hand, her daughter's attention was completely attracted after seeing DreamseTrue's Giraffe-kun.
