Popularly known as Kyon-kyon, Koizumi made her breakthrough on the TV audition show Staa Tanjou (A Star is Born) in 1981 and her debut followed the next year. The usual string of slickly packaged pop singles, albums, TV dramas and movies followed. She first appeared on the annual New Year's Eve extravaganza Kohaku Uta Gassen (Red-White Song Battle) in 1984, just a week after her movie debut. In 1987, she won the award for the best-selling single in Japan. She was cast quite out of character as the villain in 1997's hit movie Odoru Daisosasen (Bayside Shakedown), which starred Oda Yuji.
Kyoko is one of the few idols from the early '80s to have survived with her image and popular appeal intact. She became less active in her acting career following her marriage to popular actor Nagase Masatoshi in 1995 (she met Nagase when he was taking photos for the magazine AnAn, to which she contributes). But she remained in the public eye through regular TV commercial appearances. While she's old enough to play the stereotypical CM mother, her image remains that of the perky girl next door. Her divorce from Nagase came in early 2004, around the time that she was receiving a lot of offers to get back into acting more. This difficulty in combining marriage and work seems to be a real hurdle for many women in Japanese show business and one of the two usually has to suffer.
La La La…

あなたは どこかで 雨やどり
水たまりに映る ぬれたヒール
赤いワンピースも だいなしだわ
降り出した雨に 騒ぐ街
あなたは どこかで 雨やどり
約束をするのが 苦手な人
雨のリズムの中 そっと
La La La...
I wait for my boy friend
La La La...
I wait for my boy friend
La La La...
I wait for my boy friend
La La La...
I wait for my boy friend
La La La...
I wait for you, my boy
La La La...
Can't you see I'm in love
降り出した雨に...
あなたは どこかで...
La La La...
あなたは どこかで......

このPVを初めて見た時、全身に電流のようなものが走った。戦慄。小泉今日子 meets 高城剛 meets 藤原ヒロシ meets 屋敷豪太。このPVから、人類のデジタル化は始まった。とさえ言える。歴史的名作。

中学校の時に聴いてなんて浮遊感があって素敵な曲なんだろうって思った思い出

この曲はおそらく梅雨時の雨を歌ったものだと思いますが、ジメジメを感じさせない爽やかさがあります。

前作アルバム(Fade Out)がハウスでも近田春夫と組んだ「歌謡曲ハウス」だったのに比べて
同じハウスメインのアルバムでも藤原ヒロシと屋敷豪太と組んだらここまで違うのかと思い知らされた曲でした。
(「丘を超えて」等スカパラ参加作品は藤原ヒロシとASA-CHANGでこれも面白い試みでした)
