ClariS have put out an 80’s inspired EP culminating in this Wink cover, which is also remixed. I grew up with the music of Stock, Aitkin and Waterman in the 80’s, and I’d like to think I’d have been into Wink if they had ever made it to the UK then. I find the 80s pop scene in Japan pretty impregnable, so it’s fun to have this insight.

Ha, just came across the video for the original version of the song, which seamlessly continues from the video for Haikarasan ga Toru (although the track on the EP actually comes afterwards). I found that pretty neat.

It's a lovely thing. Especially the presenters.
