DESIRE ~ that hair wig ~

actually, Akina started wearing the wig she used during Desire’s promotional period back in Concert 1985 "Bitter & Sweet"…this pic is taken from the visual book "VINGTANS", which captured some photos of the 1985 concert…which are not released on video/DVD…the songlist in the released version was heavily cut…missing a lot of regular single numbers out…anyway, just as I found this picture…another discovery came about ….doesn’t that dress look a little familar??! AGAIN!!

The answer to that dress….GYPSY QUEEN in 1986!! …1st appearance on BEST TEN ( ザベストテン ). That was the only time Akina used that dress for Gypsy Queen…I guess she realised that it doesn’t suit the song and she got nicer clothes to wear!!

Sometimes, one may wonder why we keep talking about Recyclemania here…I guess it takes a true, blue and "poisoned" Akina fan to be able to recognise all these repeated fashion… Whatever we say here…it just goes to show how much we adore this 歌姫…dun we?

that black dress…if you ever notice…

I am not sure if many of us ever realised about this one…I think it is acceptable to recycle as maybe it was really meant for Desire rather than to be worn on the last day of 1985 on 紅白…but anyway, Akina did it again…

Recyclemania Quiz

hehe…let me also post a small quiz on Recyclemania:

Qn 1 : Do you know on which music program (TV) did Akina wear this dress again (which was first worn on Yume Live 1991)?

Qn 2: Akina first wore this red dress when singing a medley with Matchy in “Let’s Go Young” in 1985. Do you know which other single promotional dress was this for later?

Make your guesses!! =)

Japan Junior Chamber Event

Akina at a Japan Junior Chamber event recently. she performed Kazari, Slow Motion and a Medley of hits. why was she chosen to perform at the event? is she connected with the organisation in any way? her outfit looks familiar? no prizes for guessing where you saw it previously.

also, methinks her makeup a bit the excessive. no?
