Erika's new single "Free" has climbed to the top of the Oricon weekly music rankings that will be released on July 16, showbiz sources said. Erika is the singing stage name of actress Erika Sawajiri. Sawajiri's prior single, "Song of the Sun," which was released in August 2006, also topped the Oricon weekly rankings. Erika is the first female singer to have two back-to-back singles reach No. 1 in the rankings since Hiroko Yakushimaru did so in the 1980s. Erika reportedly sang "Free" dozens of times before settling on the version. [youtube]Nq-W-0HZCX4[/youtube] Source: Mainichi
she looks matured in the video...i've got her taiyou no uta and stay with me singles... it's nice...any idea where i can download it paradiso?
Try going to the 'download request' section and make a request post, someone might have it or find it for you. I think that's the best advice i can give you. -innocent
Nice video, her voice is nice, and her look has changed quite a bit from her Taiyou days. Creating a music career can also direct her away from her gravure idol business.
all I have to say about that picture is dang. that being said I really shouldn't be so shallow, haha. I hope the song is just as good
I loved this song when i watched Taiyou No Uta. Series was good and erikas song are still amazing =D.
