Amazing singer. Love her beautiful voice. Born to Japanese parents in Manchuria China and was given both a Japanese and a Chinese name. She was caught in the middle during the Sino-Japanese War but she still became a big star in China and in Japan. Just goes to show that music transcents nationality and war and lives forever everywhere.
As much as the beauty of the song, as Japanese descent I cannot take my eyes off from these soldiers look on the faces. I think they never knew how desperate they are until she sang this. “What the hell am I doing here?”
Kojou no Tsuki ( luar no castelo em ruina) é uma musica clássica do Japão , do começo do século XX e é equivalente ao clássico brasileiro " O guarani" para nos brasileiros e dizem que tem uma influência da musica russa de quem os japoneses aprenderam a musica ocidental Quanto a cantora lírica a Lee Hisiang Lan nos anos 30 -40 era considerada uma das três melhores cantoras líricas da China mas na verdade era japonesa nascida na China e sua dicção era tão perfeita em mandarim que quando da derrota do Japão na guerra ela estava para ser fuzilada como traidora da pátria , foi salva por uma amiguinha russa de infância conseguindo levar o comprovante de nacionalidade de Pequim a Xanghai escondida numa boneca e conseguiu livra-la de um fuzilamento que já tinha até a data marcada
the citizens of Sendai may remember this song from the loud blaring music siren of the Marumitsu Department Store that played from 1953-1985, 10AM-9PM every day
@treemarks She was ever a welll-known songster and film-actress during the Sino-Japanese War in 1937. It is said she was ever yearning for becoming a journalist when she was a schoolgirl. However, as she has a genius for singing, and what's bettter, she has grown up to be a charming woman, she becomes a famous singer and movie star in Japan.
