Hiroyuki Sanada playing the piano
Well, I have been blurbing about someone else too much these days, so here is one for my Sanada sisters!!
I don't remember if this clip was one of the collections in Jamie's gallery, but I DO remember seeing this one before somewhere - one of my FAVORITE moments of Sanada-san. Very rare video, and I don't know how long it will be up on YouTube. If you know how to download, you SHOULD go ahead and do it.
It is his appearance in NHK talk show in 1996, when he was playing "Mitsunari Ishida" in NHK's historical drama "Hideyoshi". In my definision, 1996 is the beginning of his "big change" period that leads to his break-through performances in "A Story of Love" (1997 TV drama), "Ringu" (1998), and "King Lear" (1999-2000 RSC live stage act).
Here, NHK invited Sanada-san over for an interview for the promotion of their drama. Mitsunari Ishida was a key role in the latter half of the story, so it is taking place in mid-year, just about the time when World Cup Soccer was taking place. In the clip, he plays the piano and sings, and after this, he answers different questions. Sanada-san was saying he loves watching and playing soccer, but that part is not included in this clip.

これは懐かしいですね～～。私はビデオに持っていませんでしたよ、これは！！放送は見た気がするのですが、私も波があってコレクション熱が全くなかった時期もあるんですよね～。映画館で映画を観るだけでいいや、みたいな時期。86年は87年ほど燃えていませんでした。ハムレットも見てないです。（＾－＾；）今から思うと、ハムレットは見とくんだったなぁ…。悔まれてなりません。
でも、真田さん、ピアノ上手！！！娘に見させてあげよう！！凄く喜びます！本当にありがとうございました。
