Xmas time is looming.  As soon as December arrives, many Christmas songs are aired on the radio or TV. What do you want to listen to ?

TATSURO YAMASHITA – Christmas Eve  is the most standard Xmas song…We may be able to say so now.  This song was released more than 25 years ago in Japan and it’s been a top popular Xmas song since then.  What makes this song so popular is just the melody.  You will soon remember the melody and can start singing with it.

TASTURO YAMASHITYA recently doesn’t have many hit songs, but actually he was the top musician back in 1970′s. His music essence was apparently from American chorus vocals music.  His music knowledge is really wide, he used to have a DJ program on a radio, and what he introduced through it was so various music from the world.

This song, Christmas Eve is sung by Japanese and English, of course we are accustomed to Japanese version, but listning to the English version makes us understand his music sense is not just from Japanese origin.

It’s sure that we will hear this song again through Xmas time in Japan this year when we walk down the steet or when we turn on the radio.  We again know that one year passed when this song hits our ears.
