Noriko Awatani has a strong image as the \"Queen of the Blues,\" but at the same time, she was one of the first to record in Japanese works that were popular overseas at the time and spread them throughout the world. Many Japanese chanson singers, starting with Noriko Awatani, have released records on Columbia. Fubuki Koshiji, who will celebrate her 100th birthday in 2024, first recorded \"Ai no Haiku\" 70 years ago, and Akihiro Miwa made his debut on Columbia with \"Mekemeke\". Some chanson singers are still active today, such as Kumiko and Hidemi Sasaki. A compilation album featuring the chansons of these artists has been released.
