Ayaka (絢香, Ayaka? born December 18, 1987 in Moriguchi, Osaka Prefecture, Japan) is a Japanese female singer signed to Warner Music Japan.



Pre-Debut
Ayaka was first introduced to public singing in her early years and throughout high school she would sing song covers at school concerts. Her first solo concert was held in her second year of high school, it was a small high school concert in where she sang only covers of famous musicians. After speaking with an audience member, Ayaka was referred to the VOICE music center in Fukuoka. Ayaka began practicing original song composition as well as learning about the various recording methods used in mass media recording. It was there that Ayaka met music producer Nishio Yoshihiko who signed her directly to Warner Music Japan's main artists label.

Ayaka performed at various music venues and as the opening act to various other groups during much of 2005. Though she had not officially debuted yet, in December of 2005, Ayaka was contracted to perform the ending theme "Mikazuki" for a television Japanese Drama known as @Human. Even though a music video was produced, the actual single would not be released for almost a year.

Later in the same month, Ayaka was asked to perform at a Christmas music festival featuring names from all over the world. Ayaka performed three songs, Mikauzki, I Believe and a Japanese rendition of the popular German Christmas carol, Silent Night.

Official Career
In January 2006, Ayaka recorded "I Believe" as the ending theme for the Japanese Drama, Rondo. At the time of its premiere, Rondo was one of Japan's highest rated dramas and is credited with exposing "I Believe" to wide audiences. The full single was first released as a downloadable only single and would go on to become the fastest downloadable song to reach 1,000,000 sales as well as becoming the 2nd highest selling downloadable debut single for a female artist.

"I Believe" was officially released on February 2nd, 2006 and debuted as the 3rd highest single of the week. The single would go on to stay in the top ten for six more weeks as well as selling a total of 220,000 copies in its entire chart run. An English cover of the song was used by Miki Ando in the 2006 Winter Olympics and the 2006 edition of Skate America which Ando would go on to win.

Ayaka's second single "melody ~SOUNDS REAL~" would go on to have only moderate success on the Oricon charts. The single was limited to 50,000 copies, of which only approximately 10,000 were sold in its first week. "melody ~SOUNDS REAL~" peaked at number 14 on the Oricon charts and then steadily declined in both sales and chart position. When compared to her earlier songs, Melody was a much more rock oriented song, a factor that earned her praise from various Japanese critics for her versatility. To date this is Ayaka's lowest selling single, but it was gone on to stay a while in the charts, slowing gaining sales, and has gotten past the 20,000 mark.

"Real Voice" was Ayaka's third single and was used as the ending theme to the Japanese Drama, Suppli. A B-Side single from "melody ~SOUNDS REAL~" known as "Blue Days" was also used as an insert song for the same show. "Real Voice" was released on July 17th, 2006, selling 15,387 copies within its first week and charting as the 11th highest selling single of the week. To date the single has sold over 50,000 copies.

Weeks before the scheduled release of Ayaka's first album, "First Message", the album was canceled. In its place, the single "Mikazuki" was released as a rerecorded version of the same song from 2005. It was later revealed that the release of her first album was delayed so that "Mikazuki" may be released fist. "Mikazuki" has become Ayaka's highest charting single, selling 40,091 copies within its first week and taking the highest spot on the Oricon weekly charts. The single would then go on to sale over 200,000 copies, making it one of the highest selling singles of the third quarter of 2006.

On November 1st, 2006, Ayaka's first album "First Message" was finally released after months of push backs. It sold 350,580 copies within its first week, making it the highest selling album of the week as well as the highest selling debut album for a female artist in 7 years. The album has gone on to sell 711,299 copies and has stayed within the top two positions on the Oricon charts for four weeks straight.

On December 31, 2006, she appeared in NHK's Kōhaku Uta Gassen, powerfully singing "Mikazuki."

On February 22, 2009, Ayaka married actor Hiro Mizushima. On April 2, it was revealed that she has been diagnosed with Grave's disease. She plans to continue singing until the end of 2009, and will then put her career on hold.
On April 22, 2009, Ayaka will be releasing her second double A-side single "Yume wo Mikata ni / Koikogarete Mita Yume", almost seven months after her last single. Featuring two songs, "Yume wo Mikata ni" and "Koi Kogarete Mita Yume", the single will also include a live version of "Kimi ga Iru Kara" that was recorded from her live performance in February at Shibuya-AX. "Yume wo Mikata ni" is a part of the Benesse promotion campaigns, used to cheer high school students on in their studies. The single will come in two different versions, Limited and Regular.

Broken
Broken my heart
Kyou mo mata mezame yume da to kidzuku asa
Koishisou ni
Mitsumeru egao ga ima mo kienai
Oh, jewelry day

Kimi to ita ano uta ga mada kikenai

Oh, kokoro shizuka ni te wo tsunagi
Shizumiyuku yuuhi wo mitsumereba
Kotoba nante hitotsu mo iranakatta
Shiawase no imi shitta no

Tooi machi made dekaketa birthday
Tokubetsu na deto de
Nigirishimeta te no naka ni hikaru
Osoroi no pearingu
Oh, jewelry day

Owaranai monogatari uso no you ni

Oh, itsuka wa owaru tabi no naka
Ai suru yorokobi wo kureta anata ni
"Arigatou" sakebu yo
Kikoeteru nara
Koe wo todokete onegai

Oh, ano hi mita yuuhi tsutsumikomu
Ookina orenji ga
Ima mo mune wo atatakaku suru kara
Tachidomatte wa
Yume wo miru no yo kotoshi mo

Broken
Broken my heart
今日もまた目覚め、夢だと気づく朝
恋しそうに見つめる笑顔が今も消えない
Oh Jewelry day

君といたあの歌がまだ聞けない

Oh 心静かに手をつなぎ
沈み行く夕日を
見つめれば言葉なんて一つもいらなかった
幸せの意味知ったの

遠い街まで出かけた Birthday
特別なデートで
握りしめた手の中に光る
おそろいのペアリング
Oh Jewelry day

終わらない物語嘘のように

Oh いつかは終わる旅の中
愛する喜びをくれたあなたにありがとう叫ぶよ
聞こえてるなら
声を届けて、お願い

Oh あの日見た夕日包み込もう
大きなオレンジが
今も胸を暖かくするから
立ち止まっては
夢を見るのよ今年も...

Lyric added by: EclecticEnergy

Broken
Broken my heart

I wake up again in the morning, realizing it was a dream
That smiling face
Staring lovingly at me still hasn’t left my mind
Oh jewelry day

I still can’t hear that song we had when we were together

Oh, our hearts silently hold hands
And when I stare at the setting sun
I don’t need a single word
I realized the meaning of happiness…

I left for a far city on your Birthday
A special date
The light shining in our clasped hands
Comes from our matching pair of rings
Oh jewelry day

The story never ends, as if it wasn’t real…

Oh, during this journey that will end someday
I’ll cry out to you, “Thank you”
For giving me the joy of love
I pray that you
Will be able to hear my voice, please…

Oh, the setting sun we saw that day
That giant orange
Still warms my heart
I’ve stopped moving
Because I’m dreaming again this year…
