563. Nakamori sauerkraut

Miho Nakayama said that it is true that she likes DREAMS COME TRUE, and she likes the setting of a giraffe man in the band, which is not a polite statement.

At last year's Red and White Song Meeting, when she was backstage, Miho Nakayama actually wanted to take a photo with the giraffe man, but she was selected for the first time in Red and White, and she was nervous backstage and felt that it was too rude to rush over.

The main business is acting, and Miho Nakayama, who sings part-time, has nothing to do with her singing skills.

Because of this, she has a simple respect for professional singers in her heart, and she doesn't want to treat the giraffe man as a mascot for a group photo in a scenic spot. Therefore, she only thinks about the group photo in her heart.

However, the number one title song of the band's new album and the most talked about song is "Future Visions II", and the other songs are much less likely to be sung on TV shows.

It's rare to be on the same stage with DREAMS COME TRUE, and this time it's her favorite song, and Miho Nakayama wants to take a look.

She was going to see the band rehearsal and say goodbye to Akina Nakamori.

Unexpectedly, Akina Nakamori also followed her, "I heard that the scene of DREAMS COME TRUE is very exciting." ”

Miho Nakayama was a little surprised, but more of a joy to walk with an idol, "Yes." ”

DREAMS COME TRUE has only been debuting for a short time, but it is quite famous in the industry for its strong live performance ability.

Here, the two idols stopped together for DREAMS COME TRUE, and on the other side, the agent Omoto reminded him, "Akina-chan, it's time to prepare." ”

Unlike Miho Nakayama, who has already changed into stage costumes and waiting, Akina Nakamori, who has just arrived at the TV station, is still in a state of no makeup.

......

On the other side, the three people standing on the stage are confirming their position under the instructions of the staff and remembering the position of the cameras under the stage. A singer who can accurately capture which camera is shooting and send Wink to the camera, talent and hard work are indispensable.

As the absolute center, Miwa-chan tries to jot down everything that needs to be memorized, and the easiest thing is the faceless Shinichi Iwahashi, as long as he stands in front of the electronic keyboard prepared for him.

Two teammates who were free to move freely on stage came to him and confirmed the details of the performance with him.

Everything is ready, Miwa-chan returns to the middle of the stage, and Brother Nakamura takes the bass handed over by the staff. Brother Nakamura uses a six-string bass, which is so heavy that he has no friends, and he will never carry it on his back when he is not performing, so as not to lose his shoulders and waist young.

The bass is a good thing when it is heavy, so the bass player really needs to be cared for.

The staff in the audience held up the board, and Shinichi Iwahashi sent the signal "start".

The song "Starry Sky ãŒå―ąã‚‹æĩ·" (the sea reflecting the starry sky) was performed for the first time in the studio tonight, and it was only sung in the studio before.

Of course, before coming to the rehearsal, after deciding to sing the song, Shinichi Iwahashi and Brother Nakamura rearranged the live version of the song and practiced it in the company's rehearsal room.

The strength of the band is absolutely reassuring, and as soon as the rehearsal starts, it immediately gets into the groove.

All the best.

Shin Iwahashi contributes harmonies while accompaniment, while looking around the studio. He wears a hood, and the advantage is that he doesn't have to manage his expressions, even if he lets himself go, he can look wherever he wants.

Then, I saw Miho Nakayama and Akina Nakamori standing outside.

Two people stood outside the studio, looking at the side of the stage.

Akina Nakamori's gaze sometimes fell to Miwa Yoshida, who was swaying freely on the stage, and after looking around, it fell to the giraffe man who was playing the piano.

When DREAMS COME TRUE was still in the band Heaven, Akina Nakamori knew something about the strength of the band. Now that I look at it face to face, I have a deeper understanding of this matter.

Standing on the stage and starting to sing, Miwa Yoshida's whole body exudes a kind of joy, and just by looking at it, she can appreciate the joy that "singing" brings her.

For such Miwa Yoshida, it seems that the only reason to become a singer is because of "happiness".

Akina Nakamori watched Miwa Yoshida sing, as if she felt the mood of Shinichi Iwahashi when he made up his mind for her. Such Yoshida Miwa has a kind of innocence that makes people want to get close and like it.

She tried to understand Shinichi Iwahashi's feelings for Miwa Yoshida, but she couldn't control the envy of Miwa Yoshida in her heart. Compared with her clumsy self, Miwa Yoshida seems to have a natural aura of being loved.

So she looked away and looked at the giraffe man.

Shinichi Iwahashi was fearless with a hood, and when he noticed Akina Nakamori looking at him, he turned in the same direction where she was standing.

Akina Nakamori noticed that Shin Iwahashi was looking over here from time to time, and immediately understood that he had discovered it. With a hood in the way, he can look at it without any scruples, but through the hood, he can't see his expression, everything depends on guessing.

However, knowing that he looked at it on purpose, even though he couldn't see his face, it was enough to make Akina Nakamori feel better. She couldn't see Shinichi Iwahashi's face, and she couldn't help but smile a little when she thought back to his usual appearance in her heart.

However, the direction in which she is standing is also the direction in which Miho Nakayama is standing.

"It seems that the giraffe-kun found that we were watching. ”

Miho Nakayama looks like a good girl and enjoys the rehearsal of the band. When she found out about this, she was a little embarrassed, and while she said, she went to see Akina Nakamori.

As a result, I saw Akina Nakamori looking at the giraffe man with a smile on her face.

"We're too close. Akina Nakamori retracted her gaze and went to see Miho Nakayama.

"That's right. Miho Nakayama also smiled, "It's no wonder that you stand so close and don't get noticed." ”

However, the professionalism of the band is unquestionable and has not been compromised in any way. Miwa Yoshida and Masato Nakamura didn't pay attention to the people outside the stage at all, and didn't distract themselves from the slightest extra attention.

When the two of them whispered, even the giraffe man turned his head and focused on the stage.

"Does Akina-san also like the setting of Giraffe-kun in the band?"

Miho Nakayama remembered the appearance of Akina Nakamori looking at the giraffe man with interest just now, and asked casually.

Without waiting for an answer, he first said happily with the joy that he liked the same thing as his idol, "I also like Giraffe-kun." ”

"What?"

Akina Nakamori was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glance at the giraffe man on the stage who didn't know anything.

Why is it so popular......

Miho Nakayama shared her thoughts, "I feel like there's a dreamy feeling in the band because of the presence of Giraffe-kun......"

In front of the idols she likes and trusts, she speaks freely.

And the idol she likes and trusts, while poking the giraffe man who doesn't know anything with her eyes, feels that this scene is a little funny in her heart, and responds to Miho Nakayama's words.

"Akina-chan, it's time to prepare. ”

The agent Big Ben came to urge her again. Just now, Miho Nakayama was going to see the rehearsal of DREAMS COME TRUE, AND Akina Nakamori said "Wait a minute" and came with her to watch the rehearsal.

It's time to go back now, right? I haven't prepared anything yet.

"Got it, it's over. ”

This time, Akina Nakamori agreed very happily. She said goodbye to Miho Nakayama and went to her lounge to prepare for her next stage. Miho Nakayama, who was not in a hurry to rehearse, stayed and continued to watch the band's rehearsal.

......

After the performance on stage is over, the music stops, and the staff gives the instruction "It's OK", Brother Nakamura takes down the bass, Shinichi Iwahashi leaves the electronic keyboard, and the three of them walk off the stage to meet the producer.

The music producer in the studio at night communicated with them about the performance just now, and the band's live ability is undoubted, and the producer here can only praise them.

The rehearsal was perfect, and the band immediately went to the studio and returned to the lounge.

The song chorus at the beginning of the night's hot recording studio will wait until a while before the rehearsal begins. During this time, I had to wait at the TV station.

Participating in live shows is like that, non-stop waiting.

Wait until the end of the rehearsal of the song joint singing session - DREAMS COME TRUE this time the song assigned is Hikari GENJI's famous song "パãƒĐダã‚Īã‚đ銀æēģ" (Galaxy Paradise).

The song was written by Ryo Asuka, a member of the duo Chuck and Asuka, who was in charge of the songwork for Hikari Genji, who was talented and provided many golden songs for Hikari Genji.

It can even be said that the songs they wrote for Hikari GENJI are of such high quality that they will be popular almost anyone they sing it to.

If you want to hold idols, you must have a strong team behind you.

The song "Galaxy Paradise", with its high quality and high popularity of Hikari Genji, became the best-selling song on last year's singles annual chart, selling 870,000 copies.

In an era when single sales were generally not very sluggish, it was a miraculous number, and GENJI alone was undoubtedly the most dazzling idol of last year.

If it weren't for the fact that the year before, Janiss' big overturn at the Grand Prix event caused Kitagawa to announce that his artists would have withdrawn from all jury awards, this single would definitely have won last year's Record Awards.

It is said that before and after the record awards, there were also fanatical fans of Hikari GENJI who protested with Genesys and gave various cool "condolences" to Masahiko Kondo, who was knocked to the ground and could not turn over after an attempt to operate in the dark.

However, this is all a "family matter" of Genesys & Associates.

The beautiful boys of GENJI are really not complimented in their singing skills. The production team behind this idol group is often tailor-made, and songs are written according to their vocal range and singing ability.

But even so, this kind of tailor-made song has a new style when it is handed over to a great demon king like Miwa-chan to sing. In the song joint singing session, if you are not careful occasionally, you will contribute a general performance of hanging and beating.

By the way, in front of DREAMS COME TRUE, the person who sings their song is Miho Nakayama.

Miho Nakayama's singing skills are extremely touching, and she relies on her cuteness and beauty to support the stage performance. And the songs written by Miwa Chan are particularly difficult to sing, and for her, it can be said to be quite a memorable experience.

Having said that, arranging DREAMS COME TRUE between two idols who have no singing skills, I really don't know whether to say that the program team is bad or that the program team will make trouble.

After the song singing session ended, Miho Nakayama came over to apologize to the band.

This attitude made the three members of the band a little impressed by this popular idol. Iwahashi Shin thought to himself that with such a heart, it is no wonder that he can stand out from the idols of the same period.

......

The rehearsal of the joint singing session is over, and then we are waiting for the live broadcast to officially begin.

Back in the lounge, the agent reminds them that they want to send the record to Miho Nakayama.

Mentioning this, Miwa-chan remembered it and casually mentioned, "When we rehearsed in the afternoon, Nakayama-san and Nakamori-san were watching. ”

Although she took an attitude of ignorance, she didn't really ignore it. Rather, everything on and off the stage is under her control.

"Anyway, let's go deliver the records first. Iwahashi Shinichi spoke.

After all, Miho Nakayama is a "big senior" who debuted several years before them, and she is not very old and her seniority is not low. I said that I would give away records to each other, and as a junior, DREAMS COME TRUE had to take the first step.

The three of them took the record and went to visit Miho Nakayama.

Today, the band has a lot of intersection with Miho Nakayama, and now I went to visit, Miho Nakayama looked very happy and relaxed.

Although it is a senior, but after all, it is young, and in front of the three of them, Miho Nakayama can't afford to be a "senior".

Exchanged another greeting and exchanged records.

There are three people on the DREAMS COME TRUE side, and Miho Nakayama sent three in one go.

After the record was changed, Brother Nakamura thanked Miho Nakayama for watching their rehearsal - as the representative of the band, Brother Nakamura perfectly took on the task of communicating with the stars in the industry.

"It's really exciting!"

Referring to the afternoon rehearsal, Miho Nakayama did not hesitate to praise herself, "Seeing such a performance, there is a feeling that you must go to see their live performance." ”

"Thank you. ”

After the band thanked her, Shinichi Iwahashi took the initiative to bring it up, "Nakayama-san, the band is scheduled to tour this year, if you don't mind, how about sending you tickets for the Tokyo show then?"

Now, Miho Nakayama thanked them.

However, the giraffe man took the initiative to talk to her, and Miho Nakayama looked at his hood and asked, "Giraffe-kun always dresses up like this, it must be very hard, right?"

"It's a special head covering, so it's no problem. Shinichi Iwahashi explained.

Miho Nakayama nodded, remembered something, and said to Shinichi Iwahashi, "Not only me, but Akina-san also likes the setting of Giraffe-kun in the band." ”

"Akina-san likes it too?"

......

After a few words, Brother Nakamura said goodbye at the right time, and the three of them left Miho Nakayama's lounge.

When they returned, the agent had already brought back the lunch box for them.

The luxurious set of the night is a hot recording studio, and the specifications of the bento boxes provided are also quite high, which makes people feel like "we want to come to participate, either because the ratings of the picture program group are high, or the picture box lunch is delicious".

This is the second time the band has participated in the show, so they are quite clear about the specifications of their lunch box.

Miwa-chan is quite fond of the bento box in the studio at night, and she was a little hungry during the rehearsal just now, so she was already thinking about the dinner after that.

But now, she broke her chopsticks, but she didn't move.

After thinking about it, he teased Iwahashi Shinichi, who had already taken off his hood, "Akina-san also likes giraffe-kun." ”
