Chihiro Onitsuka returns

[Celaphorce]

Who is she, and what genre of j-music does she sing or interpret???, I'd love to get to know another new artist to add to my many who's discographies I will have to buy after I finally get money... That'll be my whole life...LOL

Aww, I didn't know she had stalker-issues (some people are crazy -_-; ). I thought she was only on hiatus because of throat surgery or something... A new single from her would make my day.

Quoting:
Employing a mix of folk rock and heartfelt ballads in her guitar and vocal driven delivery, Chihiro Onitsuka fits into the singer/songwriter category of artist. Growing up on the island of Kyushu, south of Japan's main island Honshu, Onitsuka was raised listening to pure American pop like The Carpenters and Carole King. Influenced in high school by the American artist Jewel, with whom she shares several stylistic tendencies, she began writing and performing her own music at that time. After graduating from high school in 1999, Onitsuka moved to Tokyo to purse her career as a singer and songwriter. She debuted in the year 2000 with the single Shine, but didn't really gain renown until releasing her second single, Gekkou ("Moonlight"), which was chosen to be the theme song of a Japanese television drama.
