Browse piano sheets by Tetsurō Oda on Zen Virtual Piano. In an interview Oda said that while in England he wanted to become a painter, buying records and painting in oils while he listened to them. Back in Japan he entered a school dormitory in Kōchi during the folk song boom, and once he started playing a folk guitar he stopped oil painting altogether. The account of stopping painting the moment a folk guitar was within reach reads as a sharp turn rather than a slow drift. His best-known recording is the chart-topping single Itsumademo Kawaranu Ai o, released in 1992, from a solo career that he has pursued since 1981. Artists such as Zard, Tube, Wands, Deen and Field of View had popular hit songs produced by him at the commercial peak of his career. Odoru Pompokorin, co-written with Momoko Sakura and performed by B.B. Queens, won him the 32nd Japan Record Award in 1990. A name that appears on both sides of the microphone, as performer and as writer for others, shows how many places a song can come from. In an Oricon interview he said that in his twenties he wrote songs in quantity but began to divide works into those that would sell and those that would not, and he grew weary of it. Izumi Sakai and Tetsurō Oda wrote Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku, the opening theme song of the Dragon Ball GT anime series. A busy hit-maker admitting that the sorting he did in his twenties wore on him adds a reflective note to a long run of successes. In 2000, while sightseeing in Madrid, he was attacked in an attempted robbery and his vocal cords were damaged so badly that his singing voice disappeared; after a year of rehabilitation he resumed a live tour in 2002. Perhaps for someone who both sang and wrote songs for other singers, losing the singing voice was a notable break in the record.
