He has been called a &#8220;sound craftsman&#8221; because of his commitment to music-making. In 2003, he was ranked by HMV Japan as sixth in the Top 100 Japanese Artists. <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd17<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udf39\ud83c\udf39\ud83c\udf39<\/p>\n<p>PS. I didn\u2019t know that he married [\u7af9\u5185\u307e\u308a\u3084 Mariya Takeuchi] until today \ud83e\udd2f For those who don&#8217;t yet know, she&#8217;s an influential figure in the city pop genre as well as one of the best-selling music artists in Japan ~<\/p>\n<p>PPS. Yamashita-san attended law school at Meiji University, but dropped out\u2026 which reminds me of a long lost friend of mine who graduated from Meiji. I could still recall that afternoon when we were sitting inside a pavilion in the mountain and chitchatting &#8212; He was telling me about how the rivalry between Meiji University and Tokyo University was similar to that of UK&#8217;s Cambridge and Oxford&#8230; Can\u2019t believe so many years just flew by like that\u2026 \ud83d\ude2e<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udf39\ud83c\udf39\ud83c\udf39<\/p>\n<p>By the way, Yamashita-san has been vigorously opposing streaming music, reason being that the streaming companies profit from it yet have no contribution at all to the creation of the music itself. As a result, it\u2019s hard to find his music on those streaming platforms. <\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfb6Tatsuro Yamashita Official Website<br \/>\n\ud83d\udd17<\/p>\n<p>Have you watched [\uc11c\uc6b8\uc5d4 \uc6b0\ub9ac\uc9d1\uc774 \uc5c6\ub2e4 Seoul Zip] hosted by our Giant Fairy yet? It\u2019s one of my favourite TV shows; not just because of one of the MCs (To be quite honest with you, I think the programmes he participated so far have all been of high quality), but also because of its unique theme \u2013 \u2018Rethink the forgot essence and spirit of \u2018home\u2019, and look for the dream home that everyone cherishes deep down\u2019 \ud83d\udc9c<\/p>\n<p>The MCs visit the homeowners who left Seoul, where housing prices were too high, to build their dream homes in different parts of Korea. Watching these couples working hard as a team to realise their shared dreams really moves me.  <\/p>\n<p>As the last part of the lyrics go &#8212; In the ocean of time, let us be for each other and float to the future together&#8230; With that special someone by your side, obstacles, challenges, and hard times don\u2019t matter anymore, because you are not alone, and, \u2018Teamwork makes the dream work\u2019!

Maxwell) \ud83d\udc9e<\/p>\n<p>Stay blessed, everyone! \ud83c\udf40\ud83c\udf40\ud83c\udf40<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the sixth track on our Giant fairy\u2019s first Japanese album \u2018DRAMA\u2019, released on 20 December 2017.
