Singer Misato Watanabe appeared on Tetsuko Kuroyanagi's long-running talk show "Tetsuko no Heya" (TV Asahi) broadcast on January 15th at 1pm. Watanabe debuted in 1985 and has been a singer for 40 years. "My Revolution," which she sang the year after her debut, became a huge hit, and she continues to tour around the country, delivering her voice.

Recently, he says he thinks that his songs are influenced by his grandparents in Kyoto. He reveals that he actually wrote the lyrics for a song inspired by a haiku poem written by his grandmother.

Since her debut as a singer at the age of 18, she has been busy, but there was a time when she was unable to work due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During her time at home, she grew various plants and worked hard at her balcony vegetable garden. She also started sewing, and spent her time making pouches out of her favorite fabrics, such as dresses. This time, she will bring her remade works to the studio and introduce them.
