@iloveu4evergirl No te estaras confundiendo con Ai Iijima? Ella si fue una porno star. Si fuera verdad lo que dices hace rato se sabría de seguro eso (como los porno que hizo Sylvester Stallone ), me parece que estas cometiendo un gran error
No he vivido jamás en el Japon pero la media habría sido implacable con Mari si eso fuera verdad y tarde o temprano los de este lado del mundo nos habríamos enterado..
BTW, mari san has just return to L.A from the Japan Macross cross over concert call 息をしてる 感じている all the songstress from the macross seres (except Macross II)
Watching this live and comparing to the Macross scene is fascinating. The translation of emotion/feeling through her execution of the performance is so amazingly close.
That's where you're wrong, Iijima looks nothing close to Minmay. If you all look real carefully you'll see that Minmay character looks more like Akina in her younger years. Minmay hair style resembles more what was popular during the early 80's. When alot of girls wanted to have the same look as Akina.
Its fun how much Iijima-san looks like Minmai... With the proper "Ai Oboete imasu ka" Minmai cosplay... damn, i got shivers on my back just thinking about it.
Up until now I've only seen current footage of her (through the interview on the ADV macross DVDs) but this is my first time seeing her from back then. And you know what, she looks great now, but she looks really cute here too!
Thanks youtube. I never saw Mari singing before. At that time in Taiwan, maybe 25 years ago, it was really difficult to get Japanese TV programes.I heard this song when I was in Junio r high. This song helped me through many tough times.
This is perhaps her best live version. She has a recent version in the related videos, but she lost some of her Japanese fluency due to living here in America for nearly 20 years. I never thought she'd lose it considering she grew up in Japan for the first 26 years of her life. Nevertheless, it is very nice to have this video on YouTube. A brilliant performance.
Are you living in L.A. where Mari san lives? She are having mini concerts times to times. I will like to know how she feels about the comments regarding her old videos here. Maybe I ask her on facebook :)
asu, mari ijima esta jovencita en esos tiempos, yo ni nacia creo por esos tiempos, pero ni bien conoci la musica de macross me gusto,y este oboete ima suka una de las mejores canciones
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
They mostly looked Filipino though. Because my mom reminds me of her but my moms voice is sort of like hers. Just trying not to brag. I think I like the newer version more than this one. But this is the best.
I purchased this VHS (yes I said VHS!!!) back in '88. I wore it out playing the last battle scene over and over again. Twenty years later, I still love this song as if I just discovered it. TIMELESS PARTY OF ONE!!!
I loved this song a lot more before I learned Japanese...but I may not have ever learned enough to learn how corny it was if I hadn't loved it so much when it was still gibberish to me.
What has knowing Japanese to do with the quality of the song???
Even without any knowledge of Japanese you can always get translated lyrics, and they don't sound corny in ANY language I've read or heard them ... ESPECIALLY NOT in Japanese >_> Jeez, it's a frickin' LOVE SONG >_>
Mas o menos creo que entre 15 y 18, no recuerdo bien, pero en serio que es la Mejor de toda la saga Macross que ha habido, aun las nuevas de Macross Frontier no le llegan a la Mitad.
Wow, that was really a treat. I wasn't even a teen when i heard this song originally, but i feel inlove with Mari's voice and style. She remains an amazing singer, writer and composer to this very day. Wow, that's an amazing artist and woman.
