Echigo Love StoryKobayashi Sachiko
The single Echigo Jowa, released in 1996, is a masterpiece that lets you fully savor Sachiko Kobayashi’s appeal as a classic enka singer.
It has the feel of pure enka, with Kobayashi’s sultry, heartfelt vocals shining from start to finish, Toyohisa Araki’s concise yet all-encompassing lyric choices, and Tetsuya Gen’s beautiful, faintly wistful melody—all superb.
The overall key is average, and as long as you grasp basic enka techniques like kobushi and vibrato, it should be easy to sing even for those who aren’t comfortable with high notes.
It’s enka through and through, so beginners should try learning the essence of enka with this song!

MKishitani Kaori
A track from PRINCESS PRINCESS’s fourth album, “Let’s Get Crazy,” released in November 1988.
It was also released as the B-side to the single “Diamonds” in April 1989.
Despite having no tie-in and not being a lead track at the time of release, it later gained numerous tie-ins—such as being used as an insert song for the “Broken-Hearted Message Board” segment on Yomiuri TV’s “Zamaa KANKAN!”—and became popular, now counted among PRINCESS PRINCESS’s signature songs.
It’s a ballad with a deeply affecting melody and lyrics, so its acclaim is well deserved.
And what most strongly imprints the song’s “bittersweetness” on listeners is, above all, vocalist Kaori Kishitani’s slightly husky voice.
Why not give it a listen once in a while and indulge in a little nostalgia for past romances?
