purple or white inspired by Olivia Newton john, her outfit was somewhat daring at that time, there is a whole blog that talks about it and I'm going to take the liberty of putting it here if you want give it a read https://majun.blog.ss-blog.jp/archive/201312-1

the song in question got an early techno pop sound which is not so new to be 1981( susan, sandii, mioko yamaguchi, keiko nishina, ymo, ippu do, by example), but the fact that someone with an established fame like junko ventured into the genre that was something new , If we include the lyrics and the outfit, was a surprise for her audience which apparently was something a little difficult to assimilate, and that's what kept her from going up so much on the charts, not like in the mid 70's

ok, it's understandable seeing it from a distance, and without taking your eyes off and making a contemporary judgment, it was really a very good piece in pop music and that is because the work team was half experience and half youth that is why the sound of this song is very special it is an excellent melody, cynically sad but charming, also innovative and maybe it is not noticeable with the naked eye, you have to put yourself in the shoes of the people of that time and then you can understand that the music was already making its transition, and this song is a good example of what was coming It was a sound that was later reflected in more idols or artists that gave the 80's the characteristic sound.

Kazuko Kobayashi with a long career as a lyricist, responsible for that Who Are You? by Yoshino fujimaru

Masaaki Ohmura arranger of Junko Yagami, and Seiko Matsuda who was in full swing as a new idol back then

Yuichiro Oda on the music growing up the idol Seiko Matsuda too

The techno part was provided by Tetsuji Hayashi who was a pioneer in terms of electronic sound in the 80's I could tell you everything he did but it is very extensive, so I'll just give you an idea, I suppose you already heard Momoko Kikuchi ok the person behind all the setting and the sound was Tetsuji Hayashi.
