Shun-hai [Tanka] Twilight is also 'a good thing'

Accompanied by a song #ShunTanka by Bukkomi Variety Team

#Shun-hai application guidelines are here

Regarding the tanka, I leave it to the judgment of the readers.
I will not provide any specific explanation myself.
Now, here are the submissions.


First, #FromASongAndTanka combined

Twilight is also "a good thing," the sunset,
smiles, sake, and everyone is excited

The song is here
🎵 DOWN TOWN / Sagittaria Trifolia Choir

"Sagittaria Trifolia Choir" is the name of the chorus team for my #UTAU voicebank.
Actually, it is the scientific name (Latin) of a certain plant and the name of my hometown.
(I'll talk about that another time.)
Furthermore, since it also means "arrowhead" (kuwai), I thought it might connect to the word "choir."
(Bonus) Here is the self-introduction we often do as a chorus group
🎵 Sagittaria Trifolia Choir
(Let's go with a Showa-style "doo-wop")
Here is the illustration drawn by Kuya-san.

The team name is hard to remember, so you can also call us"Wi-Fi-Set" if you like. (lol)

♪ DOWN TOWN
Lyrics: Ginji Ito, Composition: Tatsuro Yamashita
Vocals (UTAU voicebanks)
Lead: Kasane Teto
Second: Anna Nui
Third: Lady Lilith
Fourth: Yomine Saku
Bass: Mine Rar

I added handclaps in the second half to make it sound like a Tatsuro-san song.


Next is a #TankaThatJunkoYamamotoMightSing

You don't have to wait (anymore) this summer,
because I probably don't intend to return to this room

Please read the "(anymore)" at the end of the first line with an anacrusis (tightly).

The song is this one
🎵 Afternoon Watching the Sea / Yomine Saku
Lyrics/Composition: Yumi Arai

I would have liked to paste Junko Yamamoto's version, but there didn't seem to be an official one. (If you search for "Junko Yamamoto Afternoon Watching the Sea" on YouTube, you can find it, so please listen to that too.)
So, I had my chorus members sing it in a hurry.
Therefore, the vocalization is a bit subtle... No excuses!
Actually, I wanted Nui-san, who is ennui (is this also an outdated term?) as her name suggests, to sing it, but the vocal range was a bit different.
The background arrangement was written quite a while ago.
Since it's a solo vocal, I kept the choir pad chorus.
(Come to think of it, this is also a carbonated drink topic)


Finally, #TheSeriousOne (because it's summer)
(The previous two were also serious, though)

On a hot day, the innocent voices of children,
doves take flight from the Peace Statue

"Peace Statue" refers to the "Peace Memorial Statue" in Peace Park at the epicenter of the Nagasaki atomic bombing.

🎵 Tsubasa wo Kudasai / Orchestra Version

Lyrics by Michio Yamagami, Music by Kunio Murai, Arrangement by Sus,T, a.k.a. Misty

Of course, as always, this is a song written using only a PC, MIDI, and musical notation.
(I feel like a conductor)
I uploaded it to YouTube first.
I tried to make it sound a bit like Mozart, including some quoted phrases.
I don't just write a cappella swing, you know. (Haha)
(But in the end, this was originally a song by Junko Yamamoto, wasn't it!)


See you later.

May good things happen to everyone.
