A popular song in Okinawa, Japan in 1992

NHK: That song is...shima bei (=shima bei/shima song)...it can be called the soul of Okinawa...an eternal song~...shima bei is originally a children's song of the Amami Islands...

Amami dialect vocalist... In December 1992... The Boom, a Japanese band affiliated with Sony Records, re-sung... and released it as their 9th single... at that time.

..This Single... caused a nationwide sensation in Japan... and at the same time... also aroused opposition from the people of Okinawa Prefecture... who believed that their interpretation method... was not in line with traditional Okinawa music~.

..Anyway...Okinawa songs...Ryukyu music...in addition to Shimabei...there is also 涙そうそう(= Tears Sparkling)...This song...is composed by Okinawa Prefecture's own

The version sung by the singer...Natsukawa Rimi...accompanied by the traditional Japanese musical instrument...the shamisen...is also a masterpiece~...Japanese movies from the past few years...by Nagasawa Masami and Tsumabuki

"涙そうそう" starring Satoshi... Okinawa is also very beautiful... just like the Ryukyu Kingdom in the past~...hehehe...coincidentally...the heroine Masami Nagasawa herself...is also from Okinawa
