❤ LOVE ❤

Today, I tell you about my favorite music and singer. My favorite singer is 'Mr.Children'. Do you know them? They are very famous group in Japan. So, I think that they have wide appeal.

First, I tell you about them. They formed 'Mr.Children' on January in 1989. On May 10th in 1992, they debuted through released minialbum 'everything'. In August of the same year, they released 1st single 'kimigaitanatu'. So, they have released many CD or album until now. You have been to sure to listen their songs.

Next, I recommend you some their songs. For example, 'kimigasuki', 'Any', 'HERO', 'OVER' and so on. Every song is wonderful!! But, of all others I like 'Dakishimetai' best of all their songs. Because, the words ring in my heart. This song was released on December first in 1992. This song is collected album 'KIND OF LOVE' or 'Mr.Children 1992-1995' too. Please listen it.

Finally, I introduce their activity from now on. They started concert from August 6th. Regrettably, I can't go it. Someday, I want to go to their concert. And, they will appear on television program. Please watch them if you are interested in their song.

I'm a fan of them forever!!!

☆night view ☆

The day before yesterday, I went to ' Hanaokayama' with my group of friends. It stopped raining when we visit there. So, I was very happy.

I have been there twice. We can see beautiful night view at all times when we visit there.

I want to go there again.

Book review 1-12: NEW YORK

It is one of my dream to go New York. I haven't been to US.

This book told me about New York. So, I could understand about it.
For example, I was taught about food, sport, museum, parade and so on. I interested in New York and US more than until now. I want to go New York someday.
