Back to The 80's: Sheena Easton's Live at Billboard Tokyo


I just got back from a live at Billboard Tokyo. I went to Sheena Easton's live consisted of her 80's hit songs such as "Morning Train (9 to 5)", "For Your Eyes Only", "Telefone", "Almost Over You", "Strut", "Sugar Walls", "The Lover In Me"... they brought me back to 80's. Those were the days I tended to listen to the radio program "American Top 40".
Her voice is still strong enough, and the talk has a sense of humour. Lucky enough, I could get the seat just in front of the stage, and I could shake hands with her.
The photo was taken just after the show. The view was not from my seat, but a place close to an exit.
The climax of the show was "Morning Train" and the encore, "Modern Girl". The former one has a very soft and kind atmosphere, and one lady sitting in the front seat started crying because she could keep shaking hands with Sheena. She looked around 40, but I am sure that everybody at the place felt the same way... I mean, everybody spent the young days with Sheena's hit songs and finally we could meet her such a close distance.
Cheers for great performance and songs! Oh, I must add one more thing. The band was great as well. They supported her with strong and firm sound and vocals.
