    I somehow feel as if I'm the only one here who discovered her from hearing a song she sang in the old Unico movies, haha.

    Her English is extremely impressive. If I didn't know she was Japanese, I would have thought she was from Ireland or somewhere around the UK.

    Melodies of Life was one of the defining songs of my childhood. It's stayed with me since I was 10 and it still manages to tug on the heartstrings. I just saw she had a song called Galway Sky and as an Irish person, I had to look it up. It was so pretty. There may have been tears. <3
