Fluency Journal: My Favorite Artist

This is my first fluency journal. I have been thinking about what I’ll write as my first fluency journal. I came up with many topics. But today I decided to write about “My Favorite Artist.” I’ll tell you the reason why I chose this topic later.
My favorite artist is “Southern All Stars.” I love their songs. Especially I like Kuwata Keisuke, who is a member of Southern All Stars. They made great debut when they were students of Aoyama Gakuin University about thirty years ago. The name of their first single was, as you know, “Katteni-Sindobad”, which was a great hit. I think everyone has heard it before. Of course I was not born in those days. But I have all their single CDs because they sold their CDs again some years ago as a memorial of 25th anniversary and I bought, don’t be surprised, 44 CDs which were all of them. Furthermore I have bought many of their albums. I don’t know why I like them. But I can say that though they’re over fifty, we don’t feel they –especially Kuwata Keisuke- is old or out of date. I want them to make many more impressive songs forever.
Now you understand what Southern All Stars are great, impressive, and delightful artists. Then I’ll explain why I chose them as a topic of my first fluency journal. Kuwata has just started selling new single the name of which is “Ashita-hareru-kana” today in May 15th. The meaning of the title is “I wonder if it will be sunny tomorrow. “ I booked it on the internet shopping site on April. And today I got it. Now I’m writing this fluency journal as listening to it. As you can see, that’s why I decided to write about Kuwata Keisuke, the leader of Southern All Stars.
