To the Sky（SORA E）/Carmen Maki _Maki Annette Lovelace Lyrics by Tsuyoshi Kajiki, Music composed by Hirofumi Kasuga (English translation of the rough meaning of the Japanese lyrics) Like a cloud floating vaguely in the sky From the time when I wanted to wander the wide sky too Your singing voice whispering from afar has always supported me Someday, I'll surely fly high in the sky like you You sing that “you should live your life the way you like” Your blues sing so from a worn out record “It's no one's fault that you were born without a clear purpose” I was following in your footsteps, searching for my dreams with my hands Your singing song from afar has always supported me Someday, I'll surely fly high in the sky like you I'm sure that tomorrow I'll be flying high in the sky just like you 〇Carmen Maki / Maki Annette Lovelace Maki was born in Kanagawa Japan in 1951. Her father is American and her mother is Japanese. In 1969, age 18, she made her debut as a solo singer in Japan with "Sometimes Like a Child Without a Mother" (lyrics: Shuji Terayama, music: Michiru Tanaka).　 It suddenly became a million hits in Japan, and she participated in NHK's KOHAKU annual song contest at the end of the year,and she became famous singer in Japan. But next year in 1970, she declared turn to Rock Singer, and next in 1971 she released an album "Carmen Maki / Blues Creation" with "the Blues Creation" led by guitarist Kazuo Takeda.　 The collaboration ended with the release of only one album. On this album, she made it clear that she was a Rock Singer, not a folk singer. In 1972, she met guitarist Hirofumi Kasuga who was 18 years old at the time and formed "Carmen Maki & OZ". Three years later, they released their first album in 1975, their second "Closed Town" in 1976, "Carmen Maki & OZ III" in 1977, disbanded in October 1977, and released their live show as "Carmen Maki & OZ LAST LIVE" in 1978. The OZ’s first album attracted attention due to Maki's name recognition in Japan, singing ability and charisma, and became an unusual million hit for a Japan rock album of that time. OZ played more modern rock in the 70's than “Blues Creation”, with heavy, hard, and progressive songwriting rather than the sound of Kazuo Takeda's blues-rock tendencies, partly due to Hirofumi Kasuga composition. It's surprising that OZ was already born in Japan before the NWOBHM movement and Metal genre were born in the World. It was very unfortunate that they couldn't have the opportunity to be released in Europe and the United States, for world market at that time, ended up buried only in domestic sales Japan. In Japan Maki has continued to influence the power vocal styles of later “Show-ya / keiko Terada” and current Japanese female Metal Bands Vocal style. Keiko Terada is a fan of Carmen Maki, and their song “I am storm / ARASHI” is a famous answer to OZ's “I am wind/ KAZE”. “Japanese Female Metal Rock history has Started with the arrival of “Queen” Carmen Maki..”

I love this song!!!Well done girl!!❤

年のせいなのか、これを聞いて泣けてきました。

素晴らしい❗ 1977位に初めて聴きました。TIMES が ベスト盤とは 当時は 知らず。 素晴らしい 歌声。石間秀樹氏の ストラトキャスターであろう ギターの フレーズ、 音色。 この時代の若者は 本気で 世界に勝負を賭けてたんだろうなぁ。

I remember buying this album in early 70s after CREATION was 'recommended ' by the BBC. Great album.

So few people know this music. I've been listening to Rarebird for 50 years. If you like this you may enjoy String Driven Thing.

@mf1932 so sorry for accidentally deleted your comment. I was trying to tell you that I can't find a live version of the song either 🖖

Amazing album!!

Great song!!

Haven't heard this for over 40 years. Had the album and lost it in a move. Brilliant.

中学生のころ、ロックに目覚めた私が母に「これ買って」とねだったのが、「私は風」が収録されていたアルバム。 「時には母のない子のように」のカルメン・マキのつもりで買った母は、いきなり大音響で「私は風」が流れ始めたものだから、肝をつぶしました。 でも、自分で買ってやった手前、何も言えず。マキさん、素晴らしい！

探してました！！！ちあきなおみの夜へ急ぐ人　以上に怖い！ありがとうございます😭

Nice song!!

カルメン・マキ - 坊や大きくならないで 作詞：浅川しげる 作曲：トリン・コン・ソン 坊や静かにおやすみ　私の坊や 来る日も　来る日も　いくさが続く 坊や大きくならないで そっと　眠りなさい お前が大きくなると いくさに行くの いつかは　きっと　血に染まるだろう 坊や大きくならないで そっと　眠りなさい 青空とびかう鳥よ　お前は自由 いつかは坊や　平和が来るわ 坊や大きくならないで そっと眠りなさい 坊や大きくならないで そっと眠りなさい　眠りなさい

Muito lindo.

Thanks for posting all of these great songs.

❤️❤️❤️
