「誰も行かないところに、誰かが行かねばならない」が口癖だった長井健司記者の夢
それは“歌手デビュー”だった・・

(大学時代のコンサート会場にて)
中学時代からギブソンを片手に作詞・作曲も手掛けた
卒業時、長井記者が同級生に宛てた一文にはこんな記述が・・
「人は、声をはりあげ絶叫する時があっていいと思うんです。
人は、気分よくうたっている時がいちばんの自由です」

「俺の曲は絶対に売れる!」
40代半ばを過ぎて尚、歌手デビューを諦めてはいなかった長井記者
ここに長井記者が作詞した『ふるさと』と『ヤキイモ』を紹介します
********************************************************
『ふるさと』

ふるさと想う こころは同じ
語り明かせば 泣けてくる
強がり言っても 一人で泣いた
熱い涙が しみる夜


帰ってゆける ふるさとは
遠きにありて 想うものと
ふるさとあれど 帰れないのは
振り切れぬ思いがあったから
裏切れなかったあの娘(こ)だから
後ろ姿に別れを言う
これ以上 もう会ってはだめだ
余計に別れが辛くなる


ふるさとに似た なつかしさだけ
思い出させてくれた娘(ひと)
恋人に似た ふたりだったけど
二度と寄り添わぬ ふたつの影
恋人に似た 白い雪の世界
せつない雪が 降り止まぬ

『ヤキイモの詩』
※サビ
焼きたての ホカホカの
ホクホク食べる ヤキイモだい
ヤキイモの 安売りの
おいちゃん来るの 待ってたんだよ
ヤキイモのおいちゃんが 今年もまた来る
街角にひとときの こころのオアシス
「ヤキイモがおいしいよ」って 街角に響く
ふるさとに届くよう 「とうちゃん、元気だ」
だけど 都会では ヤキイモが振り向かれないんだよ~
ほかにオイシイおかしがあって振り向かれないんだよ~
いまの都会じゃ、ふとり過ぎのこどもたちであふれかえる
本当の甘いおやつを 街角のどこかに忘れていやしませんか~

  1. I am new to web designing and it made me more confused when I stumble into this content-management-system thing. I’m planning to update a site that is not designed using JOOMLA and was wondering if I can use Joomla to update it..

  2. I have recently started a website, and the information you provide on this web site has helped me a lot. Thanx for all of your time & work.

    I am grateful for your post. I would like to write my opinion that the tariff of car loans differs a lot from one coverage to another, due to the fact there are so many different issues which contribute to the overall cost. Such as, the brand name of the auto will have a massive bearing on the price. A reliable old family motor vehicle will have a more economical premium than the usual flashy expensive car.

  4. The article is really very interesting! I will continue to try me here to keep you informed. Thank you!

    How can I get a blogger to remove a defammatory post on a blog?

  6. Great blog post. Some tips i would like to make contributions about is that laptop or computer memory needs to be purchased if your computer can no longer cope with anything you do along with it. One can put in two RAM memory boards of 1GB each, in particular, but not one of 1GB and one having 2GB. One should check the car maker’s documentation for the PC to ensure what type of storage is necessary.

    One more thing I would like to mention is that as an alternative to trying to accommodate all your online degree tutorials on days and nights that you end work (considering that people are fatigued when they get home), try to get most of your sessions on the week-ends and only one or two courses in weekdays, even if it means a little time off your saturday and sunday. This is fantastic because on the weekends, you will be far more rested and concentrated on school work. Thanks a lot for the different guidelines I have mastered from your blog site.

    Thanks for this excellent article. Also a thing is that the majority of digital cameras arrive equipped with a zoom lens that enables more or less of the scene to become included by ‘zooming’ in and out. All these changes in the aim length tend to be reflected inside viewfinder and on big display screen right at the back of the exact camera.

    An added important issue is that if you are a senior citizen, travel insurance with regard to pensioners is something you should make sure you really look at. The more mature you are, the harder at risk you will be for having something terrible happen to you while abroad. If you are not covered by many comprehensive insurance policies, you could have quite a few serious complications. Thanks for giving your advice on this blog.
