After a lengthy wait from preorder Anri’s Heaven Beach has finally rereleased on vinyl. Timely and Bikini were also released and maybe Coool as well from memory. I got this through Tower Records.

I always thought it was strange that an album called Heaven Beach has a cover of Anri chilling with a bag of groceries on it. I wonder what she bought.

A real shame this album isn’t on Spotify because it’s so good.

From the F-1 GRAND PRIX WORLD album which presumable was used for Fuji TV's coverage of the Formula 1. You may recognise this from Macross 82-99 and Sarah Bonito's Horsey.

I once heard this played in a burger joint in Brisbane.

For me, it was Mariya smiling at me from the thumbnail with the title “Plastic Love” back in 2017. I’m probably not alone with this story but I’d love to read your stories of your intro to city pop.

There’s quite a few versions of this song. I prefer both EPOs and Juice=Juice’s but this has grown on me over time.
