How could that happen? Today i present the first woman in the long list of muscians in Haruki Murakamis novels: Brenda Lee (born in DEz 1944) with her title All Alone Am I from 1963. Litte Miss Dynamite has a clear and  sweet voice within.
On his way to the airport to fly back to Tokio Narita from the northern part of Japan our protagonist from Tanz mit dem Schafsmann (dance, dance dance, ダンス・ダンス・ダンス dansu dansu dansu) reminds himself how many stupid songtext he learned in his boyhood. On the way to the airport he’s thinkh of “What a good bandname is ‘Talking Heads’?” and that he thinks the little girl Yuki (snow in english) is not very polite because she didn’t offer him a chewing gum (cf. page132 germaqn edtition) but had herself serval on their way.
