    Naoko's Funeral

    I finished re-reading Norwegian Wood today and had an idea to make a playlist on YouTube out of solo guitar covers that would match as closely as possible the scene Haruki Murakami describes at the end of the book.

    Details of necessary liberties taken (and also a request for a solo—preferably acoustic—cover of Wedding Bell Blues by Laura Nyro) are in the description of the list! (Also notice that I started faving all the videos I put here on the murakarumappu channel, so you can just go there if you want a quick inundation without boring blog posts.

    "Now listen to me, Watanabe. I want you to forget all about that sad littel funeral you saw. Just remember this marvelous one of ours."
