We appeared on the radio show called "Sunday Ranking" in Fukushima, Japan last Sunday.
Thank you all who listened to our radio show and who came to the studio at Fukushima AM!
In the begging of the show, we played a cover of "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed sheeran.
I love his songs and listen to his new album called "X" almost every day. His guitar playing and his voice always cheer me up.
This time around, the topic of the show is
"Who is your sports hero?"
I chose Olympic figure skating gold medalist Yuzuru Hanyu and Tatsunori Hara who is a professional baseball manager in Japan. Besides them, I have so many athletes I wanted to pick as my heroes, such as Kei Nishikori(tennis player) and Yukiko Ueno(softball player).
Surprising thing happened during the show!
I got a Valentine's day gift from Nakko( personality of this show)
I love marshmallows, so cute! Thanks Nakko!
At the end of the live show, we performed our original song called "Be Alive"
Actually, we wrote the song right after the 2011 great northeastern earthquake in Japan to help give strength and encouragement. This song is not only for Japanese people, but also for others all over the world who need to have a resilient sprit and fight against all odds.
Here is the song "Be Alive"
It's the English Version
After the show, we happened to meet cool musicians!
Hanao (far left) is a lead vocalist of "TAIYOUZOKU(punk/rock band)"
Yoshiki Takagi (far right) is also a lead vocalist of "THE MASSMISSILE(punk/rock band)"
They appear on the radio program and have some live concerts in Fukushima too.
The woman on the lower right is Shiho Yagi who is an announcer of Fukushima AM, she introduced them to us.
Here are Gifts from our super fan!
