While I agree that no one can put out quality music all the time, I don't think it matters that much how much time you spend. Western artists often take years to release, but they still don't have an overall better quality than japanese artists /Idols. Her christmas concert is one of the most popular in Japan (and also one of the most expensive). Last edited by *Petit*; 31st March 2008 at 10:17 AM. |

 i didn't know seiko had a new album out Although it was mentioned previously in this thread, i really do love Natsu no Tobira ^^ It has to be one of my all time favourite Jpop songs infact ^^ Kouhaku performance if i'm not mistaken. I saw her perfom this on an episode of The Best 10 that i downloaded quite some time back ^^. She's so cute and has such a great voice. Also, although it's just UBER cheese, her song "The Right Combination" with Donnie Wahlberg is just so awesome! 80's Jpop idol's make the world go round

Natsu no tobira is SUCH a classic <33 one of my favorites.
I don't think her new album, "My pure melody" was uploaded here, maybe I should put it up in the downloads section. |

Hmm I think ppl got it all wrong
Altho I havent heard much from her, shes actually the queen of Jpop before the time Of Ayu. And she really was the queen. She should have had great potential a talent to keep up her popularity until now and to release such massive discography. |

I don't really like My pure melody as much as her past two albums, but it's still really nice.

Aaah, there was a Seiko thread here after all!
I've got to say that I'm an incredible big fan of hers. I absolutely adore her voice!  I've got quite an impressive collection of Seiko files (concerts, drama, movies, performances, full episodes of various TV shows etc...) and many of her older albums. I even have her latest "My pure melody" concert tour on DVD now. The following albums from the 80s are missing for me still though: Sound Of My Heart (1985) The 9th Wave (1985) Tinker Bell (1984) Does anyone have them? I mean I'd love to trade! Also, me and my friend are searching for the おとなの選択 (Otona no Sentaku) 1992 TBS drama. But I doubt anyone here can help us with that... Quote:
I hope that her appearance on HEY!HEY!HEY! can help the sales (2008/11/10). EDIT New SEIKO CM released today. Check it out: http://www.ffhc.jp/products/astalift.html?cid=cp:1 |

I don't have much of her stuff, it's awfully hard to find. All I have are her recent albums. If I run across any of her older albums (particularly those) I will definitely share. =]
I hope the new single can outsell Love is all...it would be nice to see her have a little increase in sales! |

Hey, thanks for your kindness. Good news though, since the last post I put a lot of effort into collecting missing Seiko music, done a lot of trading on the Japanese p2p networks etc... And now finally, I've managed to get my hands on nearly her full album discography. Including the three I mentioned about above.
As things stand now it looks like that I am only missing seven tracks from her 1990-2008 albums (unless I missed something). If you ever need something then put up a request here and I will see what I can do!

Here is a new Seiko & Sayaka CM for "Mamma Mia!" movie (Japan release):
http://mamma-mia-movie.jp/special/ Cool to see Sayaka for a change too, she hasn't been that active lately. I wonder if Seiko will release a album or single soon. She has usually been releasing one around April - June during the last few years. I wouldn't mind if this pattern continued!
