It was recently discovered that her old club, Warner Music of Japan, had recently uploaded a compilation album on major music streaming platforms, and the name of the compilation album released in 2012 that year was concise: AKINA BOX 1982-1991, which contains a collection of songs from its debut in 1982 to its departure from Warner in 1991 to MCA Victor.
Checked, many fans on the Internet said, some people say that it is a "squeezed vegetable album", some people say that in fact, a few songs are missed, but it is undeniable that this 177 songs, which was divided into 28 CDs to sell at the time, will be this Internet generation can easily find and listen to in one breath (but it will probably take a few days), her collection of masterpieces that was popular all over Asia, especially the works from 1985 to 1987.

In those three years, the girl A, who had left the cute son's head, was 20 to 23 years old, and gradually transformed into a superstar who was not limited by the "idol" label, and at that time, the cumulative sales of records were already the first in Japan, so popular that it affected the impression of her in neighboring Asian countries. Taiwanese Gelin Records wants to portray the debut of Jin Ruiyao and Lin Huiping, so that they have a little bit of her shadow; Hong Kong Xu Ke wants to find her to play Nie Xiaoqian, but Girl A considered for a long time, and finally declined, because at that time, her amazing expressiveness was placed in the song.
AKINA NAKAMORI is the name of Nakamori Akira cuisine. In 1982, at the age of 17, she sang "Maiden A", with the meaning of rebellion, and became a hit in the song world that year. (From the album)
If you have a little research on Japanese music in the 1980s, it is absolutely impossible to introduce who was at the forefront at that time, without mentioning her super hits that were acclaimed: the domineering and slightly reprimanded "Ten Commandments", the "As りじゃないのよ涙は", the "ミ・アモーレ[Meu amor e...] 〉, the gorgeous "TATTOO" that uses a large number of electronic synthetic instruments, and the "DESIRE - Passion-" that combines European and American pop and Japanese traditions (clothing or music styles).
But in the crazy and noisy 1980s, the peak of the bubble economy, the amazing entertainment industry, in order to maintain the popularity, so there is an assembly line of record production, but the quality and quantity of the grasp will determine the direction of the work: do you want to choose a commercial conservative fan orientation, or a professional, breakthrough musician orientation? She was a crisp, of course a musician, and decided early on what kind of work she was going to make. In 1986, the ninth album in four years of her debut, the first album she produced and led herself, she gave her a mysterious album title: "Not Imaginable", and this "Not Thinking" did not include any of the hit singles that had been on the market before, she took the "concept album" route.
Nakamori Akira's 1986 album "Unthinkable" is full of avant-garde mystery, and some fans even think it is a flawed product at first glance, but this album has created an amazing record of 460,000 copies, and the 21-year-old Nakamori Akira has a bright future. (From the album)
When fans complained, "Why is the accompaniment music mix louder than Akina's voice?" "Why does Akina's voice sound so weird" caused various controversies (even some fans took it to the record store to return), at the end of the same year, a "CRIMSON", the track provided half of the Takeuchi Maria and half of the Kobayashi Akiko (the creation of these two can now be classified as the "City pop" style that has suddenly exploded in recent years), the entire album is extremely complete, especially the way the last two songs are connected, is to let the fans be in the "Ming Cai Room", heard her change the tape to B side, The nasal sound hummed the previous song "赤のエナメル", typing, pouring wine, lighting cigarettes, and finally played "ミック・ジャガーに smileみを".
Crimson is still the best Akina album in the minds of many fans (and even one of the best Japanese music works of the 1980s), but she was only 21 years old.

Sometimes I wonder whether it was the people who created "such" in that era, or the people who created "such" eras, so full of passion, so amazing like using all their potential and constantly pushing themselves to the top.
Whether it is the situation or the persecution, the atmosphere, we are like standing outside the frame called "now", through the digital medium, looking at the "past" display cabinet separated by a layer of glass, looking at the analogy inside, the afterglow left behind inside, we can still feel the waves stirred up at that time, and now we can still see the height that must be looked up.

Matsuda Seiko, who created a new era of idols in the 1980s, has gone through all kinds of changes and innovations (like walking the sexy route in the 1990s, singing R&B, and releasing song singles), but the image of "idol" that is deeply rooted in the public's mind is too strong - so strong that even she herself can't surpass it later - today, Matsuda Seiko can only return to her pure and dignified idol identity, singing the "Aoji Coral Reef" that regretted everyone's youth, but we all know too well that matsuda Seiko's era has passed a long time. Even if it was the young girl A who had been influenced by the Son and completely stepped out of her own line, her time had passed.
Nakamori (right) and Matsuda Seiko were once fierce rivals in the music world, and the most famous incident between them is that Matsuda Seiko intervened in the relationship between Nakamori Akira and her boyfriend Makoto Kondo, and it is rumored that Nakamori Akira committed suicide in 1989, when Nakamori was only 24 years old.

In the future, in digital form, we clicked on Warner Japan to upload her concert live on the Youtube channel, and the set had a big "A" - that is a LIVE highlight clip in Tokyo's Yomiuri Park. On April 29 and 30, 1989, showa and Heisei just handed over, and the last song of the Miku Skylark, "Kawakon Stream", had just been released, and the 24-year-old girl A sang her own hit songs from the 1980s, almost perfectly singing performances, including the sad song "Difficult to Break the Ship".
After the second chorus of this song, there is a thirty-second interlude, and the girl in her twenties sings here, as if in pain to shed tears for a lifetime, as if to cry out the sorrow of the entire crazy eighties in Japan, and those thirty seconds are her most amazing moments. Perfect performance, perfect tears, I don't know how much real sadness I put in, but as soon as the song ended, she immediately smiled again, as if the pain just now seemed like a very silly thing, don't worry about it- even though we all know what happened in a few months.
In 1987, Nakamori Akira sang "Difficult to Break the Ship", a low vibrato, full of vicissitudes. (Taken from the Internet)

If there was a time machine or a tool that could convey any message from the digital world to the analog world, I think I would tell her that the light and heat that you burst out of then still seem very dazzling.
But what I really want to tell her is: You're really hard.
