A very very young Mari Iijima (Lynn Minmay) singing Ai Oboete Imasuka (Do You Remember Love) live from a tv-show circa 1984. So if you haven't heard or listened to the themesong of Macross-DYRL movie, here's your chance.

Hey, it's anime-related. Directly relating to the still-unlicensed and greatest anime movie of all time: Macross: Do You Remember Love? (http://animeondvd.com/reviews2/disc_reviews/1067.php). /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif

Gotta love the 80's idol-outfit. Mari actually looks like an anime-character with it. /images/graemlins/catgirl0.gif

Bah, Crashomedia Flash! I've banished that particular virus from my computer. Does the new Macross release include that music video or a reenactment, by any chance?

I got to see her perform the song live at Otakon a few years ago. I think she sounds better now than she did in '84. Of course, some loser pulled the fire alarm in the middle of her concert. /images/graemlins/sad.gif

Personally, her outfit reminds me of why I'm glad the '80's are over (as well as to remind me never to wear purple tights with a white skirt /images/graemlins/sdsmiley.gif ) /images/graemlins/catgirl0.gif

PS: I also had a bad flashback to a "flashdance" top I use to own at the time - I so hope there are no pictures of me in that top still around :shutter: (I'm around her age) /images/graemlins/wink.gif

I hate to say it, but I think that Mari could learn a few lessons from ol' Minmay about stage presence! :D
