So what I can read from her website, she was born in 1985 to an English father and Japanese mother. Moved to Kobe, Hyogo, Japan when she was 2~10. When she was 10~18 she was in Birmingham, England. Started making music when she was 19 & came back to Japan. Some other stuff happened that I can't read, then she released her first independent mini album in June 2008. Since then, she has been signed to Sony, and released her first major label release in October 2008.

ELECTRO GIRL LOVERS
Release date: 2009/01/07

She's the best female artist I discovered this year. I can't stop listening to her and her awesome songs. PROMiSE is awesome, but that Sk8er Boi cover is fantastic.

I've listened to PROMiSE countless times. It's a really good song ^^

Isn't there a remix of Promise somewhere? it was like T.O.M remix or something....idk =/ it was really upbeat. I can't find it anywhere, i'm starting to think it's a completely different artist and i confused them.

I don't know about you guys, but after hearing a couple of songs, I just really found her really bland and clichée. She wants to come off as a rebel, but it's a luke warm rebel.

But I shall give her a shot before I completely judge her. Hahaha.

I'll keep an eye on her.. Loved her performance..

Chaku-uta ranking:
10. MiChi - Promise

It took me a while, but I like PROMiSE. This girl's got a nice voice that banks on sincerity more than style. She just seems a little more genuine than most of the newbies I've heard lately.

i was listening to PROMiSE the whole week, and the MiChi MadNess album is AWESOME. so i'm really pleased with her music so far.

I'm a little disappointed in this single.
I love PROMiSE, but all the other songs just fell flat for me.

^ Really? I thought that HEy GirL was a lot better than PROMiSE and they cover of Sk8er Boi was actually pretty good.

Yeah, I didn't really enjoy any of the other songs.
The Sk8er Boi cover especially, (...but that's probably my dislike for Avril showing through)
I did semi-enjoy the Fxxk You And Your Money remix, but the single as a whole fell short for me.

Same here. HEy GirL > PROMiSE.

i like HEy GirL too, but for some reason I never listen to b-sides as often as I should

I can't decide whether to make this song or jounetsu no daishou my new ringtone.
or maybe dream fighter haha.

HEy GirL is quite good.. but PROMiSE is still my favourite song of this single though...
I never realy liked Avril Lavigne so i'm not that fond of Sk8er Boi..
Anyway MiChi MadNesS is really good !!! Fxxk You And Your Money is my favourite with Spread Your Wings [Remix] (Yes i like a Remix, it's kind of unusual with me D)

I hope MiChi's going to make great singles =DDDDDDDDD

I gotta say that my favorite song of her is actually that cover of Sk8er Boi. I always loved this song, but somehow I couldn't listen to Avril's voice. I kept hearing some covers here and there but MiChi's cover got to be the best one I ever noticed of.
