Fukuyama Masaharu's Roadsong & Kudo Shizuka's Always

[palimari]

Fukuyama Masaharu & Kudo Shizuka
Roadsong & Always

Roadsong was printed in 1992 and Always was printed in 1990
I won these used off of ebay .

Fukuyama Masaharu's Roadsong is more like a narration of Route 66 in USA.
He travelled along the road and took pictures.
The book is beautiful but not the photobook you normally find today.
Maybe because this guy himself is a photographer, professional one, too.


And I'm curious about Kudo Shizuka for a fact that she's Mrs Kimura Takuya.
She's a top idol in her time and had captured the heart of Yoshiki before.
Seeing all the picutes here, I'm not surprised.
This lady's got the full package, the looks and the voice. 

I think her bod is stunning!!

i keep wondering, what if she still pursues an active career? phew.

very good hunting skills there, bud. I would've killed for Fukuyama's. lolz (ok, that was an exaggeration. I won't commit murder)

And I won them at 0.99 USD each!!
It's the shipping cost that's more to be worried.

Kudo Shizuka's time is too early for me. Is she as famous as Utada Hikaru or anyone right now? I just want to imagine her fame.

i don't think she was nowhere as huge as Utada....from what some people told me, she got married even before she could hit the big time....I mean, I can't even find ANY of her songs....

or maybe i don't have your hunting skills....:)

My hunting skills is only in a primary stage and sadly it's limited only with photobooks. ^.^ v

I googled and found she's got tons of songs out. And it seems famous songwriters also wrote songs for her to sing.

BTW, is she still married?

THIS is primary stage? *blinks, then thinks of self* dang, gurl!

now you got me curious and goes off to hunt for her songs.

Oh wow. A page said "Shizuka was one of the biggest idols in Japanese pop history, right up there along Akina and Seiko." (although I wouldn't know who Akina and Seiko are. All i know of Seiko is...it's a watch. lolz)

I think she is still Mrs. Kimura Takuya....(unless Johnny-san interferes behind the scenes...who knows...)

I knew Seiko from when she is the Principal (or the director?) of the school in Hana Kimi who always goes abroad and reappears pulling her suitcase along. They say she's a very foxy lady in her time.

And my aunt said Nakamori Akina used to try to commit suicide over none other than Matchy (of Matchy with Question?, of course). Being a fan of Question?, during the promotion of Mezamero! Yasei, I have known the history of Matchy. He's not that good-looking when he's young and his complexion was no good. hahaha. I think he looks best at this time.

Lolz. I know the feeling, regarding the wallet and finances and stuff *cries at own expenditures over DVDs*

Too bad she went under the radar when they got married. So unfair....Must be a Japanese thing, esp when she is actually bigger than KimuTaku. In my country, though...or perhaps even in Hollywood, it would be a celebrated thing (Brangelina, mayhap?). But then again, it must be a Japanese thing.

THAT is Seiko? Ooooh.......

Suicide....again, must be a Japanese thing. (I seem to have committed a lot of offense against the Japanese in this comment....ah. sorry.)

BTW, my hunting skills will be deadly if only I can speak a little Japanese. hahaha By deadly it might mean more disastrous to my wallet.

And it seems Shizuka was bigger (not to mention older) than Kimura Takuya at the time they got hitched.

The lady is slim and has been this slim until now, hasn't she?
But she's got everything in the right place and with the right amount. hahaha I don't know how to describe her perfect bod.

I'm not much into Fukuyama Masaharu's music, but I can tell he has an astounding presence. Even in early years you can see it.

Thanks for sharing this couple pics and congrats on getting those PBs, seems really interesting!
