【第二次高市内閣発足!】〜オッペケペー、政治の中身は変わるのか??? 【The Second Takaichi Cabinet Takes Office!】 Oppekepe—Will Anything Really Change in Politics?

  昨日・9月17日、第二次高市改造内閣が発表された。そんな折り、明治の政治風刺歌「オッペケペー節」の動画が完成!   「権利幸福きらいな人に、自由湯(とう)をば飲ましたい」ーー  「自由」を薬のように飲ませてしまおう、という痛快な一節である。 さらに、   「うわべの飾りはよいけれど、政治の思想が欠乏だ。」ーー  文明開化で服装や言葉は新しくなっても、中身はどうなのか。その皮肉は、百三十年以上たった今にも妙に響く。政治の顔ぶれが変わり、新しい言葉が並ぶたびに、私たちはまた問う。  さて、中身はどうなのだろう。  今回は、この明治の風刺歌を現代のエレクトロ・ビートに乗せて朗誦した。作詞は、福岡・博多出身の俳優・興行師、川上音二郎(1864–1911)。 エレクトロ朗誦「オッペケペー節」 On September 17, the Second Takaichi Reshuffled Cabinet was announced. And, as it happened, I had just completed a video of the Meiji-era political satire song Oppekepe-bushi . “For those who hate rights and happiness, I’d make them drink a dose of Freedom Tonic.” A wonderfully biting line: give them “freedom” as though it were medicine.

Greek Mythology Aphrodite Under the Rose = “In Secret"


Even Aphrodite 

Spent with a hottie on the rose bed.

Stigmata by thorns telling secrets.

【Greek Myth】

 Roses came into bloom with Aphrodite, Goddess of Beauty and Love, when she was born from the sea foam on the island of Cyprus.


 Aphrodite was ordered by Zeus to marry Hephaistos, the god of smiths, but Hephaistos was the ugliest of the twelve gods, so Aphrodite refused and fell in forbidden love with Ares, the god of war. 


 When Aphrodite's child found out about this, she asked the god of silence to silence her, and succeeded in keeping the secret to herself.Aphrodite's gift to the god of silence in return was a red rose.


 This myth gave rise to the proverb, "Under the rose," which means to keep a secret.
