I'll be Around Doug Parkinson Found this via a version of To Love Somebody with him, Marcia Hines, Brian Cadd, and Max Merritt. Had never heard of him before, but he’s got a great voice. This song doesn’t show it off so much, but you do get some of the rich Tom Jones kind of quality his voice can have. Still, a fun song.

ブルーナイト・ブルー Yasuha She has one of them Youtube-famous city pop songs, so I’ll skip posting that. But this’s another real good one.
不眠症のTelephone Yasuha Her other records are a bit patchy, but here’s a song off the one I like most so far: Yahhoo!!. Maybe it’s just the Ito Chieri and OutRun vibes?
Thinking of You Yasuha Jumping back in time a bit—I meant to add this song.
I love that rich ‘youuuuuuuuuuuu’ so much. It’s like an owl. Penetrates my skull, like I’m singing it myself. Reminds me a bit of the way Miki Matsubara sings her vowels. Song itself reminded me of the way that みずいろの雨 song by Junko Yagami comes in.
And somehow this is a B-side~
Dancing in the Rain Nana Love Great chorus and dancing, plus saxophone and rap interludes (I think those are her kids?)

Only Lonely Divinyls Oh yeah, I remember this playing at a party last year and getting it stuck in my head too. Forgot it was by them too.
Boys In Town Divinyls I don’t know how this got into my head, but I’ve been unable to get it out for a few days now. Got a real nighttime back of car energy.
Ended up making a page on my wiki for song titles about boys.
Been listening to lots of Australian stuff from the 80s and 90s for the last couple of months.
