Another track from ANRI's 7th Album, Timely!!, Windy Summer.

Honestly, the whole album is so good that I could post a JukeBox for ALL the tracks on this album.

A refresher of who ANRI is from #66

ANRI (Real name 'Eiko Kawashima') is a singer-songwriter from Yamato, Japan who has been releasing music since her 1978 album "Apricot Jam" and continues to this day with her latest being her 2018 self-titled album release.

While listening to ANRI over the last while, something clicked with me. ANRI could be considered to be the Japanese Gloria Estefan and the backing band (in this song at least) would be the Miami Sound Machine. It gels so well together.

I would love to see a collaboration between ANRI and Gloria.

Here is Windy Summer (which actually is a great name for Ireland's summer sometimes lol)

Lyrics

Hikari no shizuku ga
Nami no shibuki abita seeru o
Hamabe ni terashi dasuto
Hashiridasu kokoro
Nani mo kamo ima wasuretai no

Kaze ni nareru nara
Kono mi o hizashi ni makasete mo

Windy summer touzakaru hamabe ni te o futte
Windy summer todokanu omoi mo kanau wa!!
Here we're windy summer!!

Eien no nami ga
Tasogare no hikari wo izanau
Harukana omoide sae
Kokoro ni hitotsu no
Kirameki wo kanjitara sugu ni

Umi e to kakedasu
Ano koro no yume to kawaranai

Windy summer kaze mo ima wa omoidouri ne
Windy summer anata no kokoro e imasugu!!
Here we're windy summer!!

Windy summer touzakaru hamabe ni te o futte

Windy summer todokanu omoi mo kanau wa!!
Here wе're windy summer!!
Kaze mo ima wa omoidouri nе

Windy summer anata no kokoro e imasugu!!
Here we're windy summer!!
