Stephanie's new song, Friends (フレンズ), will be used as the second Mobile Suit Gundam 00 ending theme song! It'll be released on 2008.01.30. She makes some **** comment about Gundam teaching people about injury in the article too. She wrote the lyrics to the song herself.

yay Gundam tie in^^ Hopefully this'll push her in the spotlight~!

This year was the best and this is fact. Awesome artists debuting like Stephanie, Satomi, alan, ASUKA... Satomi is my favorite, but Steph is my second one. Winter Gold is amazing and I love the PV (I know, WTF). It's already my favorite song of hear.

it's probbably in between being a fast song and a slow song, which could be "mid-tempo". but it also said rock, and i love rock, so let's see what this song will be like, lol.

[freedreamer]

^as long as its rock..yea..i think it would be gd...the rock song in her debut single sounded quite gd...

[AyuGAME]

winter gold has out tomorrow
somebody has it? i really want it

[cloud♥honey]

It haven't leaked yet. I'm still waiting for that. When it leak I'll upload to you.

[freedreamer]

^thanks!!

[cloud♥honey]

There are persons saying that they heard/downloaded the single. It's LIE x LIE x LIE. I think it won't leak today, just tomorrow on in a few weeks. Stephanie isn't so famous and the person who always was going to rip her singles was iChris. Probably it is uploaded in the forum too, but nobody have posted in other forum.

I hate that forum. They have everything before us, poor mortals XD

[Foxxy_Fuyumi]

[freedreamer]

I kind of thought the same thing too, but other than that, I think she has a very nice voice. She can control it very well. Have you seen her lives? Perfection.

she did it again at HEY!HEY!HEY! ?! when she appear on MS, she looks bored too, maybe she didn't understand the conversation...

Maybe she was nervous. I think she can understand Japanese pretty well since she goes to college in Japan. She's still pretty new at this so I can definitely understand her being nervous.

[Huaka]

I did see some of her lives. They were not very good. She must have been nervous or something because she was off key, didn't hit her notes very well, and was singing with a very weak/frail vocal tone.

[Kaiouforever]

I wasn't really impressed with the PV or the song...but I hope it does well.
