Flying over the bubble era

Chapter 367
(updated)
A woman's tears will be valued by others, but a man's tears will only be regarded as cunning.

So when there are troublesome things and don't know what to do, women can cry as much as they want, until they are tired and fall asleep.The man had no choice but to keep drinking until he was drunk and fell asleep.

This is what is sung in this song by Kawashima Eigo.

In terms of the invisible atmosphere of "what kind of person should do what kind of thing" in Japanese society, tears are the weapon of Japanese women, and alcohol is the shelter of Japanese men.

This song sang the depression of Japanese men to the fullest, and it can be called a golden song in the minds of Japanese office workers.

However, such songs can only be sung in karaoke taverns where half-drunk office workers gather. In the OK box, it's weird to sing such a song.

"Karaoke is becoming more and more popular, and even the sales of home karaoke jukeboxes are rising all the way." Watanabe Wanyumi recalled, and casually mentioned, "A few days ago, I saw this kind of home karaoke jukeboxes being sold on the street. .”

After a meal, when I left the store, it was still early, only after seven o'clock.The days are much longer during this season, and today is Friday again. At this time, the nightlife has just reached the warm-up stage.

Walking to the side of the road, Yanqiao Shinichi was about to reach out to hail a taxi, Watanabe Wanyumi said: "It's a bit early to go back now."

He turned his face to look at her, Watanabe Wanyumi proposed to go to the karaoke box to play.

"go singing?"

Mayumi Watanabe nodded, "I want to go and have a look, okay?"

Anyway, there are no plans for the future, and it doesn't matter if I go to sing.Shinichi Iwahashi stopped a taxi, and Manyumi Watanabe reported the address.

After the car drove out, he asked, "Is Wanyumi-san good at singing?"

Wanyumi Watanabe smiled, "Actually, I'm not very good at it. But I like the atmosphere of the karaoke box."

"Like the atmosphere?"

"Besides, since it is a popular form of entertainment, it is necessary to understand it thoroughly." Mayumi Watanabe thought for a while, "For example, there are songs suitable for listening to car stereos, and songs suitable for broadcasting in taverns."

If the karaoke box becomes popular, then it is necessary to consider the songs that are suitable for singing in the karaoke box.

Music is always closely related to words like life, times, and society.

In fact, there may not be signs of this. For example, when karaoke was just born, in order to allow men and women to sing duets, record companies would specially release duet songs.

This is how entertainment plays its role in people's lives.

"I see." Yanqiao Shinichi understood.He gave her an approving look, "As expected of Manyumi-san."

The taxi stopped slowly, and it was only a 5-minute drive.

……

For Shinichi Iwahashi, karaoke boxes are definitely not a novelty. However, the karaoke boxes in Japan were made in 1988. Although they are not new, they are still fresh.

However, for Wanyumi Watanabe, what is even more novel is the singing of Shinichi Iwahashi.

Or the captain of the band, it turns out that a person with a first-class musicality can sing so ordinaryly?

Yanqiao Shinichi's singing level is just that anyway, because the pitch is first-class, so the tune is very accurate, but the singing voice is not very good. In the end, the most intuitive feeling is "ordinary".

The out-of-tune king can liven up the atmosphere a bit, he doesn't even have anything to complain about.

Shinichi Iwahashi, who has accepted the reality, doesn't care about Wanyumi Watanabe's reaction to his singing level, which is [-] times better than Miwachan's cruel "Shinichi-kun has no singing talent".

In contrast, it was Mayumi Watanabe, who sang very well.If you were not very good at it before you came here, it seems that you should be humble.

Karaoke boxes, most of the people who come here to play are a large group of people, so they pay special attention to the atmosphere.However, even though only he and Wanyumi Watanabe sang, the atmosphere was not bad.

Yanqiao Shinichi noticed that there were guitars for the guests in the box, as well as musical instruments such as rattles and maracas, and even small props for simple transformation, such as small things such as rabbit ears and cat tails.

Manyumi Watanabe manipulated the song jukebox, and paused at The peanuts group, "The songs of the Peanut sisters are quite popular in the karaoke boxes."

The peanuts is a twin sister group active in the 70s and [-]s. The degree of popularity can be said to represent the entire era.Not only is it popular in Japan, but it has also traveled overseas to bring Japanese music to Omi. For a long time, in the eyes of Westerners, Japanese music is equal to The peanuts.

By the way, until the two retired for 16 years, the brokerage contracts of the sisters were made by Watanabe.Before and after their debut, they lived in Watanabe's house, and Watanabe and his wife took care of their lives while receiving guidance from a music teacher.

In other words, this is the combination that Watanabe Mayumi's father made popular.Maybe Wanyumi Watanabe was coaxed by the twin sisters when she was young.

The elder sister of the twin sisters later married the super handsome Kenji Sawada, who is seven years younger than herself. She just divorced last year and became popular in the 60s. In the second half of the 80s, there will be another big news. She is indeed a veteran star.

Wanyumi Watanabe said that The peanuts are popular in the karaoke boxes, and Shinichi Iwahashi is not surprised, "It should not be uncommon for two girls to sing The peanuts songs in the box to stir up the atmosphere. Besides, the two of them They sang and danced, and it was fun to imitate their movements."

And, by analogy, PINK LADY should also be very popular here.Yanqiao Shen thought about it. The slightly exaggerated typhoon of PINK LADY is unexpectedly suitable for the environment of the karaoke box.

On the other side, Wanyumi Watanabe ordered Toru Watanabe's "Restraint".

……

The two stayed in the karaoke box for two hours.

At 09:30, we took a taxi together.Yanqiao Shinichi asked Watanabe Wanyumi, "Go back now?"

Wanyumi Watanabe reported the address of her apartment to the driver, then turned to Iwahashi Shinichi and said, "It's almost time to go back,... I had a great time today."

This was said by Wanyumi Watanabe, and Shinichi Iwahashi found it very interesting.

Seeing his sudden smile, Wanyumi Watanabe guessed: "You are not thinking, how can I talk about this kind of social rhetoric?"

Center the red heart.

After guessing right, Mayumi Watanabe also smiled, "This is not a social rhetoric."

Is really very happy.

The taxi drove onto the main road and stopped in front of Mayumi Watanabe's apartment.
