手紙 ~拝啓 十五の君へ~ アンジェラ・アキ

Just believe in your own voice~



Her letter begins by writing “How are you? What are you doing?” , responding with her adult life experiences. The first part of the song is grey and confused, and the second part is bright and inspiring. Angela Aki is the daughter of Kiyoshi Aki, the owner and co-founder of Aeon Corporation but Angela lives on her own style.

She just turned 30 years old when her Italian-American mother gave her a letter. Realizing it was a class assignment to write a letter about her status of feelings at the age of 15 years old addressed to herself in the future 30 years old. After reading that 7 pages letter, it recalled the scenes from her past memories, from 15 years of age to after college graduation working as an office lady while working in a Chinese restaurant part time just to adhere her music.
