If the Showa era in Japan continues, this year marks the centenary of the Showa period. Let's look back on that era while enjoying nostalgic songs from the 1960s to the 1990s. 'Showa 100' is broadcast on the first Thursday of every month.
The music segment “Showa 100”, which launched on the first Thursday of the month, is hosted by JJ — Jason Jones — who, by day, is also a lecturer at Monash University.
Today, we revisit JJ’s top recommendation from past episodes: the very first feature, DREAMS COME TRUE’s “Ureshii! Tanoshii! Daisuki!” Please enjoy this standout selection once again.
To listen to the full talk and song together, head to the catch-up version of our radio program.
Showa 100 appears in the final segment of the broadcast, and catch-up is available for one week after airing.
