Popular J-pop duo D-51 will be releasing their 4th album on March 4, 2009—which incidentally is a special day in Okinawa: Sanshin Day (三線の日). For the new album the duo will be covering “LOVE SONG” by perhaps the greatest J-pop duo in history, Chage and Aska. The original song was released 20 years ago, on the same record label as D-51, Pony Canyon, so this is a great honor for the two. We’re looking forward to hearing how the song is remade for the 21st century and wish them the best for their new album release.
