Mina-sama:

We're up to 85+ titles on the romaji song lyrics, but because of all
the new GIF's on the /pub/jpop/incoming folder, there's barely enough
disk left to put the new version on.  I also have a Mac/Word5.0 layout
version that's binhex-ed, which one can print in a published format on
a laserwriter, but that won't fit on ferkel.  If someone has
another jpop server to put it on, please let me know.

Because of the Record Taisho and Kokaku Uta Gassen, both K2C's
'Kimi ga iru dake de' and J-Walk's 'Nani mo ienakute...natsu' are
very popular at karaoke.  Also, Matsuda Seiko's 'Kitto Mata Aeru'
and Hiramatsu Eri's 'Heyo to Y-shatsu to watashi' have been popular
with the young and yuppie Nihongo crowd in the  Berkeley/SF bay area.
Songs which are considered challenging to perform are DCT's 'Kessen
wa Kinyoubi' and Moritaka Chisato's 'Watashi ga obasan ni natte mo'
The lead singer of DCT makes lots of funny noises while Chisato-chan's
hand motions and dance are requisite monomane for the song.

We have a new contributor: Ken Schwarz, another SF Bay area person.

If you know of the romaji lyrics to your favourite karaoke songs, please
be encouraged to submit.  As usual, we need duet songs.

Here's the new list: Jan 24, 1993
