@@gingerjeanbacall She had given up rock for country, then pretty well switched over from that to gospel. She did try a comeback at the urging of some younger singers when there was a bit of a rockabilly revival in the 1980's. At least she made it into the rock and roll hall of fame a few years ago. I am old enough to remember one of Wanda's early hits, a ballad called "Right or Wrong" and I recommend it. I was a first grader when it was a hit and I never forgot Wanda and that song.

"In Fujiyama/ You get a mama/ then your troubles increase/ in some pagoda/ you order soda/ earthquake milkshakes ten cents apiece." The song 'Down In Nagasaki' was written before WWII, and mentions a Fujiyamama mama. Meanwhile, in Japan, a 'mama' can be a term for mother, but it tends to refer to a lady barsteward... if you go into a bar, and a lone woman is in charge, that's a 'mama'. (A man doing that job is a 'master'.) As for the first lines of the song, back in 1957, those bombings were American/Allied victories, and the Cold War was about to hot up. If the song sold well in Japan, well, the Macarthur years were not far behind, and, quite bluntly, most Japanese probably didn't understand the words.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, +Sebastian B. Thank you for caring and daring to stand up and speak out for people like me. My whole extended family is from the Nagasaki area (I was born there too). CW: Below is the true story of how my grandfather narrowly escaped the Bomb, including very graphic details of the horrifying aftermath. Viewer discretion advised. . . . . . Thankfully, most of our family at the time managed to stay safe from the air raids by evacuating to the country side. However, my grandfather still needed to commute daily into town for his work at the bank. For some reason, on that particular day, he didn't end up going into town. Instead, he was needed to join a crew of workers to harvest tree resin in the countryside. Everything was going fine... until work crew suddenly heard a massive sound, and there appeared tons and tons of strange smoke and clouds rising in the distance. Soon after, the work crew noticed very strange creatures slowly crawling on the ground toward them, from the direction of the massive explosion. It was hard to even tell if these poor creatures were animal or human. Their bodies horrifically blackened and burnt, their faces distorted and disfigured, some had eyeballs bulging or hanging off their face. Parts of their flesh were raw, as large areas of skin had melted and were slipping off their bodies. They crawled towards the resin workers, all of them desperately pleading for only one thing: "Water - water - water - please give me water..." My grandfather and the workers were absolutely stunned by this horrific scene. They immediately ran to fetch some water. Sadly, many of the victims were already dying, by the time the water arrived. Some were barely holding on, and then died as soon as they drank the water. My grandfather was determined to find out what exactly had happened. The next day, he went by himself to survey Nagasaki City. The things he saw there were of such unimaginable horror... That day, he made a silent oath to himself that he would _never_ divulge the details of the horrors he had witnessed that day in Nagasaki. He was determined to keep it all inside, in order to avoid causing secondary trauma and nightmares to others, especially his family. He kept his loving oath until the day he died.

To David amen Wanda Jackson is the true Queen of rock-a-billy!
I met Wanda in 20 years ago in Long Beach at The Foothill. I was dressed to the nines and went into ape shit ballistic spaz-mode when her rock-a-billy band broke out all the jams. There were so many girls there and most seemed to dig it, but i was a little shy and dropped my winning hand. When I waent up to purchase a autographed picture from her (what ever happened to that?) We talked for a couple minutes. She told me I was weird "Gabriel, you're a weird one.." propably because I was so enthusiastic and jazzed to meet her. I mean, to give you an idea how much I liked Wanda, the only way for me to hear her music was to go to a gay bar where they had one of her CD's and hustle dudes to put money in the machine and buy me drinks because i was self inflicted piss poor. for pretty much my entire 20's i was a couch surfing nihilist who hated working and just wanted to get blitzed out of my bohemian babylon. But enough about me. I saw her a few years later at the Blue but it was no where near as fun as the Foothill. Now later, she's all popular and on Movie Soundtracks, Jack While, and the hipster's hearts, but for awhile it was magic. Or at least that night was..
