Joy to the World - Day 30 - Charlie Okamura

JOY TO THE WORLD - DAY 30
Charlie Okamura is a California native now based in Tokyo, Japan. He has called Bill and Robyn Brawley his mentors and friends for over 25 years! He has shared the stage singing backup vocals for such icons as Julie Andrews, Matthew Morrison, and Japanese singer, JUJU. He has been performing his Christmas show annually for the last 8 years and just finished the last one of 2021 on December 10th.
"Hotaru No Hikari," meaning glow of the firefly, is a Japanese song that shares a tune with Scottish folk song "Auld Land Syne." This song describes hardships of a student on a journey for more knowledge. It is often played or sung at graduation ceremonies in Japan and also on a popular Japanese TV show, NHK's Kōhaku Uta Gasse, on New Year's Eve as the last song.
