Mayumi Itsuwa is very famous in Japan, and like many others, should be known more world wide. I'm sure you'll find her voice compelling and her songs magnetic. She was born on January 24 1951, and made her debut in 1972. She was recording folk/pop albums since the early 1970's, recording in Japan, the US and Europe. Mayumi Itsuwa has a quiet power in her voice and melodic styling most of her contemporaries lacked. She's commonly known as the Carol King of Japan and was in fact a good friend of hers.(from: http://www.heartflyer.com/mayumi.htm)
KOKORO NO TOMO
By: Mayumi Itsuwa
anata kara kurushimi o ubaeta sono toki
watashi nimo ikiteyuku yuuki nga waite kuru
anata to deau made wa kodoku na sasurai-bito
sono te no nukumori o kanji sasete
ai wa itsumo rarabai
tabi ni tsukareta toki
tada kokoro no tomo to
watashi o yonde
shinjiau koto sae dokoka ni wasurete
hito wa naze su'ngita hi no shiawase oikakeru
shisuka ni mabuta tojite kokoro no doa o hiraki
watashi o tsukandara namida huite
ai wa itsumo rarabai
anata nga yowai toki
tada kokoro no tomo to
watashi o yonde
ai wa itsumo rarabai
tabi ni tsukareta toki
tada kokoro no tomo to
watashi o yonde
AMAYADORI
By: Mayumi Itsuwa
Eki no homu de ni kaketa
Anata wa mukashii no koibito
Sono natsukashii yoko gawa
Omowasu kai o kaketa watashi
Anata wa odoro ita yo o ni
Tabako otoshite shimatta
Kudake shita hono ono hibiga tsuka no mani
Yomae itsume au
Do shite iru ima wa anata no kimi wa
Genki ni shiteiru wa itsu dotte watashi
Ocha demo nomu o sukashi no jikan
Densha wa dori sugite yuku
Anata wa koohi kappu ni
Kaku sato futatsu irete
Ima no boku wa konna mono sato warai nagara
Kami o kake o geta
Soo dakedo fushigine
Anohi wakareta konomo
Tada amari ni wagasukita dake dato futari
Tagaini yurushii deru
Ai shita wa watashi anata no kotomo
Ima wa betsu betsu no yume o oukedo
Nomoi ai wa suteki na koto ni
Amayadori suru o oni futari
Ai shita wa watashi anata no kotomo
Ima wa betsu betsu no yume o oukedo
Nomoi ai wa suteki na koto ni
Amayadori suru o oni futari
