Description
Known for their English cover of Tatsuro Yamashita, the Hawaiian AOR band GREENWOOD is now releasing a 7-inch cover of Sugar Babe's classic hits to celebrate the band's 50th anniversary!
Hawaiian AOR band GREENWOOD is back with another English cover of a Tatsuro Yamashita classic! Two tracks from their latest album have been cut to 7-inch vinyl!
GREENWOOD, the Japanese-Hawaiian AOR/SOUL band known for their English cover of Tatsuro Yamashita's classic "SPARKLE," showcased three covers including "LOVELAND ISLAND" on their 2021 album, but their love for Tatsuro is far from over!!
Their recently released latest album features four new covers. From among them, Sugar Babe's classic hits "DOWN
TOWN" and "MAGIC WAYS," celebrating the band's 50th anniversary, are now available on 7-inch vinyl.
While the English lyrics are translated to match the meaning of the original lyrics, what deserves special attention is the repeated chorus. You might think that only the famous phrase "Let's head out to DOWN TOWN
~♪" is sung in Japanese!? But actually, they are singing "DOWN TOWN COULD IT BE SO" (which sounds like "Let's head out"!). Please pick up this excellent cover on 7-inch vinyl and enjoy the playful gimmick that shows their love for the original song.
A. Down Town
B. Magic Ways
