When it comes to enka, you can’t ignore the “airport” theme.

Keisuke Yamauchi’s 2013 single Kushiro Airport is the third installment in his “Silver Screen Kayō” series following the masterpiece The Withered Viola of Winter, and its filmic quality shines through in the man’s regret and lingering attachment as he sings of memories of the woman he parted with, steeped in melancholy.

It’s a grand-scale song, so fully conveying its theme is quite challenging; however, the characteristic enka kobushi ornamentation is relatively restrained, and those accustomed to mood kayō (mood pop) may find it surprisingly approachable to sing.

One of Yamauchi’s charms is his rich low-register vibrato—be sure to practice so you can bring that out well!
