🎶I'm Still Singing Passionately [Mieharu Karaoke Late Summer Version] 883

*The header image is once again by @Sharan . Thank you very much.

I knew it!!

I noticed that your karaoke fever hadn't cooled down.

I noticed it!!

I noticed that the karaoke baton was being passed around.

I mean, I was acting like an audience member on my own.
I was like, 'Look, it's supposed to be until 9/20, hurry up and pass it on!'
I was like, 'I'll just read (listen) from here.'
I was like, 'Come on, entertain me.'

But wait a minute.
What a surprise.
Of all people, the baton has been passed to me from that person!!
Yes, from the master of karaoke, @Mieharu himself... it was passed to me.

And then...

Now, how should I choose the songs?
The song that triggered my awakening to music?
Songs from when I was going to festivals all the time?
Songs that feel good to sing?
Should I choose from Gian's list? (← Always so cunning!!)
Who should I pass the baton to?

Oh, sparkle!!

SOUL LOVE GLAY
I love the MV~
Well, take a look.
Doesn't it look fun?
You'll want to sing along, right?
I was happy that they played it as an encore at last year's live concert.
I like GLAY, but actually, I'm not a huge fan.
JIRO-chan has been a DJ for 25 years on the FM station I listen to.
Somehow, just that makes me feel close to them.
Also, one of the nicknames for Susumu (pseudonym, my second son living alone) is JIRO.
Neither JIRO-chan nor Susumu's real names are even close to that, though.
Yeah, let's stick with GLAY!!

Minamigochi (South-East Wind) GLAY
It's read as 'Minamigochi'.
I love this MV too~
It really looks fun.
The female vocals are YUKI-chan's voice.
Ugh, cute...
I want to sing too, I want to join the circle...
In the YouTube comment section, someone wrote, 'I wonder if they'll do it for the 30th anniversary?'
I'm going to a concert in November, and I'd be so happy if they did it.
Hahaha, even though I say I'm not a huge fan, I'm going to the concert again this year.
Wait for me, Osaka-jo Hall.
Next!!

Glorious GLAY
Hehe, it's visual kei, isn't it?
It was 1996!!
The first song I ever knew by GLAY.
Wait, 28 years ago?
I set my note age to 29, so the math doesn't quite add up...
Oh right, the other day, someone sent a message to JIRO-chan's program saying, 'For the 30th anniversary concert, I failed to get tickets through the fan club advance, the Lawson ticket advance, and the program advance. This is the first time I haven't been able to go to a concert since I joined the fan club.'
Sorry, I won the lottery even though I'm not a huge fan (Hooray!!)

So, I sang 3 GLAY songs passionately!!
TERU's vocals have been on point since around last year, so I'm looking forward to the November concert.
I'll sing!! I'll dance!! I have to prepare.

Well then, who should I pass the baton to...?

Oh, sparkle!!

#Chiyo-senpai Please!!
I'm sure you're itching to move around.
Please let it all out at karaoke.
It's not a bother, is it? Is it? Is it?
I'm looking forward to your wonderful song selection.
Knowing you, Chiyo-senpai, I wonder if it's that artist you're so good at, even with super intros...?

Chainner-san, Mieharu-san
Thank you for entertaining us even through the late summer heat.
What a surprise.
Thank you very much 🎶
