'Human Jukebox' came back again (3)

  The Group Sounds were followed by two enka, "Sazanka no Yado"(Accommodation of Camellia sasanqua) and "Tokyo Sabaku"(Tokyo desert). 
  Enka is widely known Japanese music genre characterized by kobushi, or undulating tones.   Next, Dr.Handa sang two polular hits by famous songwriter Miyuki Nakajima: "Harunanoni"(Even though it's spring.) and "Wakare Uta"(Breakup song).
  After that,  he sang his oroginal numbers including "I Left my Heart in San Francisco," "I Lost my Love,","Amayadori"(Resting at one place to avoid rain), "Koisuru Otome"(a girl in love) and "Enmusubi"(Matchmaking). 
 Amang others, "Koisuru Otome" is a song about a high school girl who likens herself to an earthworm and her crush, her classmate and a track and field athlete, to an ant. Very funny lyrics.
