Chitchat 少女隊 (Shou Jo Tai), 1980s J-pop girl group, dedicated to chootchiew and any other fans

Not to be confused with Taiwan's:
zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/少女隊 (台灣)
from the early 1990s, of which:
wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivian_Hsu
was a member during her mid-teens, before she started becoming famous some years later.

Anyway, here's my favourite song by them:

In my humble opinion, at least within East Asia (and I'm tempted to say the entire world), the Japanese showbiz/entertainment industry is superior to the rest of East Asia's by far and in all aspects, i.e. pop music, movies, TV shows (whether dramas or variety shows), comics (or "manga"), anime, etc.

Back then yes now eroded away.
Now Korea seems to be the epicenter.
Back then jap fashion was the leader.....jap music (as seen by the number of canto pop hits translated from jap songs).

Hi Bro, thanks man.
I think they were they were the original Yankee tao that I always referring to.

Their earlier hits were "forever" and "how are you my friend". My neighbour teenage girl was playing them almost 24x7.
Same time that period were another male band安全地帶 Anzen Chitai https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anzen_Chitai
Where i used to wrap their posters all over my files to school

Actually, when I said "superior", I was referring to the quality of J-pop (of course, that's my subjective opinion, but it's also shared by many others, even if we're still in the minority), not popularity (whether current or in the past).

Believe it or not, I've even watched all of the thirty films that 黒澤明 (Kurosawa Akira) directed:
wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_creative_works_by_Akira_Kurosawa#As director
and most of his famous films were released from the late 1940s to the early 1960s.

I'm just a person who likes to research the history of anything (in this case, Japanese culture) I happen to be interested in; it's just my hobby. :o

Ic. Although I didn't explore jap culture as much, I also find their culture 1 of the most interesting.
What I discovered about their man is that they usually is extra good looking or extra ugly :cool:

I was crazy over the movie "battle royal" .

Basically, K-pop is based mainly on 21st-century US-pop and J-pop, and is much newer than even Canto-pop and Taiwanese-pop.
The South Koreans are certainly working hard, but their overall real-life culture is simply inferior to that of the Japanese, so it naturally affects their pop culture, making it hard for them to be creative.
Having said that, at least K-pop is superior to Sinkie-pop! :p

Anyway, back to 少女隊, they even released this single about Korea in 1988:

Yes, those two were their first two singles:
ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/少女隊#シングル

FOREVER "long" version:

O genki desu ka? Mai Furendo:
[video=youtube;o38FB-qaBjs]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o38FB-qaBjs[/video]

And someone (I'm guessing from Japan) uploaded nearly all their singles to YouTube nine years ago:
youtube.com/user/shohjotyphoon/videos?sort=da&view=0&flow=grid
so you might want to download them all as soon as possible, while they are still available for downloading.
(By the way, I use en.savefrom.net)

Using only English words/letters to search for J-pop stuff is certainly not as effective as using Japanese kanji...
At least Chinese characters (hànzì) must be used, if you happen to know the kanji for the Japanese thing you are searching for, since most kanji characters are very similar to hànzì.

Anyway, here are some more videos of your favourite 少女隊 songs:

In my opinion, the "Golden Age" of J-pop started with the debut of 松田聖子 (Matsuda Seiko) in 1980 and ended with the premature death of 坂井泉水 (Sakai Izumi, the lead singer of ZARD) in 2007 at the age of only 40 years old.
Both of them were among Japan's best-selling female singers:
wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_music_artists_in_Japan
and were even born in the same city:
wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurume
in Fukuoka Prefecture, located on the island of Kyushu.

Maybe in the near future, I might start a few threads about some of my favourite J-pop singers/groups (who are also very famous and popular in Japan), even though I suspect there will probably be very few (if there are even any) fans of theirs in this forum....

In my opinion, one lifetime is not enough to fully explore all the interesting things in Japanese culture, whether traditional or modern/popular. :( :o
