Village People were a very macho group active in the United States in the late 1970s! Speaking of them, “Y.M.C.A.,” which is famously known in Japan because it was covered by Hideki Saijo, is incredibly well-known, but “Go West” is also a famous song.
You’ve probably heard it at least once, right? It’s a classic with a very uplifting sound.
