Yoriko-san was about to leave for UK for one-year stay, and since she's crazy about karaoke, we (we? actually it was Miyuki's idea...) made a karaoke party for her. Yoriko-san was around 50 years-old, so you can expect that most who came were also around her age... among 8 who came, only me and Miyuki who were still under 30...
At first I was worry what kind of song that I would sing... they were all Japanese and I didn't know at all what Japanese songs that were hit at their time. But Miyuki told me that I could sing any song that I want, so I just picked some song that I like. My first song was L.O.V.E from Nat King Cole, and I was really glad that most of them know the song (lucky me, it was used for CM song in Japan some times ago). During the course I tried to control my desire to pick Bon Jovi song :-), I didn't sing Bon Jovi at all, but I sang Aerosmith... :-) In the end, I realized that it doesn't matter whether the other know my song or not - as long as it's a good song, everybody will happy to hear it - and they might try to sing it as well...
