“13 jours au Japon~2020日本の夏~” is one of the songs included in the 50th anniversary release of the independent label “SARAVAH” established by French singer-songwriter Pierre Barouh.
This song is based on the historical masterpiece “White Lovers (13 jours en France)” composed by France for the documentary film of the Winter Olympics held in Grunoble in 1968.
The excellent interpretation of the music and the singing in French and Japanese not only expressed respect for the original song, but also incorporated the anticipation of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
In response, the French record company also expressed compliments such as “Ringo fully understood the meaning hidden in Pierre Barrow’s lyrics.”
In short, it is a must-listen. ”
