Today marks the 45th anniversary since the release of her debut album “JAPANESE GIRL” on July 25, 1976. The music video for the title track “Ongaku ha okurimono” from her forthcoming original album is now on view!

In addition to being a big fan of Akiko Yano, NONO is also a fan of the song “Watashi wa Bayhe” from her first album “Super Heroes”. The project was made possible in part due to the fact that he wrote the lyrics and music for the song “゙゙゙゙゙”!

In the music video, NONON appears as a “music fairy” along with Akiko Yano’s performance.

The film is directed by Tomokazu Yamada.

NON COMMENTARY

When I heard about this project, I thought, “I love Yano-san very much, so I definitely want to do it.

This music video is beautiful and moving, with Mr. Yano playing the piano in a perfect location. The music was all over the place, with Mr. Yano’s piano and voice seeping through the patterns on the walls and the breaks in the floor.

Wherever I listen to Mr. Yano’s music, the air of Mr. Yano flows through the entire space, and even humming his songs makes me happy.

I felt that such mystical warmth was contained in this video.

Ongaku ha okurimono” is a warm song that makes us feel that Mr. Yano has shared the happiness that music gives us. I was touched by the pleasant music in the music video. Please watch it.”
