…ああそう言えば、前々回のFuji Rockの記事のコメントに、Kinks Mamaさんから“柔道の穴井選手が試合に敗れて大泣きのインタビューの時、BGMに「Waterloo Sunset」が流れていてワクワクした”という書き込みをいただいてたなあ、とか それからTwitterでも“錦織君の試合の後に「Waterloo Sunset」が流れていた”という、誰かのつぶやきがあったなあ、とか 更に更に、向こうのレイ・デイヴィス・フォーラムにも The other day I learned that they play the same closing song every night at the Olympic Games. Guess which one? Waterloo Sunset, of course!!! (先日、私はオリンピックのゲームが終わると、毎晩同じ曲が流れることを知りました。それはもちろん「Waterloo Sunset」です!) なんて書き込みがあったなあ、とか…
