On September 25th, singer Kikkawa Yuu held a release event for her upcoming single “Hapirapi ~Sunrise~“.
The song conveys the image of being a bright and vigorous person right after waking up in the morning. Kikkawa described herself as being such a person, calling herself a ‘morning-dol’, and traveled across the country with her ‘Hapirapi Gymnastics Campaign‘, to make sure that everyone stays healthy by dancing along to her song.
That day she also did some exercising with those who attended the event and performed two ‘morning songs’ from her seniors: Moritaka Chisato’s “La La Sunshine” and Morning Musume’s “Morning Coffee“.
About singing the songs from her admired seniors, she commented, “Of course I was nervous, but I’m also proud that I was able to sing those songs. I respect Moritaka a lot for being able to start out as a solo singer right from the beginning. She worked hard for her dream, so I’m glad I got to sing one of her songs.”
Kikkawa herself had her own solo debut in May of this year. At the event she talked about her ambitions, “I have become used to singing alone and it’s a very satisfying feeling to stand on stage all by myself, but I have to improve a lot of things with my singing. I should always aim for the top and work hard to reach there some day.”
