A Grab for Pleasure / 2021AW

a handful from the shelf


Sunday afternoon, February 7, 2021.
While I was listening to the radio, "Sunday Songbook" started.
Personality Tatsuro Yamashita's voice seems to be more heartless than usual.
Listen, this day marks his 68th birthday,
It was the annual “Birthday Commemorative: Tatsuro Yamashita Picking a Grab from the Shelves” day.
On Sunday, when I was getting tired of the second state of emergency declaration, I felt somewhat happy.
And I was wondering what kind of things these ``loosejoints'' are interested in these days.
