(Holy great Blues Singing Batman, What next?)….

No, not Cat Woman–It’s Lovely Japanese Songstress Fujinaga Miou (pronounced: Mee Yoh)

YYC (& co.) had a chance to listen to some of her songs while in Roppongi, Tokyo (May).

While I can’t profess to be a connoisseur, Ms. Fujinaga’s soulful renditions of traditional Japanese music crafted with the contemporary was impressive. Miou makes the traditional things NEW with her own spin. She has a blue-sy, melodic voice that captures the emotions and truly is worth your listen.

It is a creative way for we ‘gaijin’ (foreigners) to understand Japan more and for ‘nihongin’ (Japanese) to reacquaint themselves with what a rich culture exists to be re-explored.

Last year, she performed at the Japanese Film Festival celebrated in Florence, Italy. Firenze 2009.

She was recently touring in St. Maarten, sharing her original music beginning 29 June.

(Make that “‘AYE’ Candy) sigh.

I digress. While I may have from time to time been accused of sporting a more fixed interest in men with a slightly more exotic twist (and, yes, they usually carry ‘manbags’ and eat umi)–but, that aside—it’s hard to resist a man with such delicious natural assets.

Some things do appeal almost universally.

Hard to choose a favourite snap, I’d like to compare them to the real thing up close and personal (PERSONAL). Strictly a professional thing, of course.

P.S. Santa: #64 & #62 work pretty well for me
