I haven't written the last couple of days because I've been overwhelmed with the events of Japan. My love for all things Asian is because of Japan and I feel like a little piece of my heart breaks every time I read another bad news story coming from Japan. All day Friday I pumped Japanese tunes, I've been staying on top of the situation and I plan to donate what I can to the relief efforts. I hope we as an international community all do our part to help this great country in it's time of need. So, for today, I give the first song that comes to mind when I think of a "fight song" for Japan. The official World Cup song by K'Naan from last summer- but the Japanese version featuring amazing Japanese hip-hop singer A.I.
K'naan (feat. A.I.) - Wavin' Flag
~!
Ganbare Nippon! Aishteru~!
A.I is amazing.
ReplyDeleteMy fighting song would be A.I's Story - which reminds me of a post I was going to write - it gets me with "hitori janai/watashi ga kimi wo mamoru kara".
If you want to help, Japan Society is raising funds, info here.
Whut? I'm pretty sure I left a comment yesterday, WTH.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I hope Japan rises as its done before in other tragic times. I love A.I and I think my fighting song from her would be Story. That "hitori janai kara/watashi wa kimi wo mamoru kara" always gets me.
