Otsuka Ai
Otsuka Ai (大塚愛)

official website: http://www.avexnet.or.jp/ai/

Although her first single "Momo no Hanabira" (桃ノ花ビラ) was released in September of 2003, it wasn't until her 2nd single Sakuranbo (さくらんぼ) that she became a sensation. As of 2006, she has released a total of 3 albums as well as numerous singles. She also starred in in the drama "Tokyo Friends."

At the moment of this writing, she is one of my favorite artists; mainly due to a unique combination of her lyrics, song composition, and personality. My personal favorites among her compositions are Haneari Tamago (羽ありたまご), Amaenbo (甘えんぼ) and Friends (フレンズ).

Lyrics:
Japanese:
La La La イェイ

いつも以上に プッシュして
いつも以上に LOVE LOVE DAY
いつも以上に どんとかまえて
いつも以上に 思いやる

みんな　集まって　さわいで青春してふざけあって
これほどにない　幸せ者になる　SMILY
泣きたい　ところは　1人でも見つけられる
笑って　笑って　君の笑顔が見たい
泣きたい　ときには　そっとそばにいてあけよう
笑って　笑って　君と明日　会いたい
La La La イェイ

いつも以上に プリテェーガール
いつも以上に ラッキーDAY
いつも以上に 強気でいて

いつも以上に 思っている

形のないもの だからおもしろくて　大切にする
今までにない　幸せ者になる
失くした　気持ちは　もう1度見つけにいこう
笑って　笑って　君の笑顔が見たい
せつない　気持ちは　口ぶえにあずけてみよう
笑って笑って　君と明日　会いたい

泣きたい　ところは　1人でも見つけられる
笑って　笑って　君の笑顔が見たい
泣きたい　ときには　そっとそばにいてあけよう
笑って　笑って　君と明日　会いたい

La La La 君と明日　会いたい

Translation Notes:
"push" is a term used in Japanese to mean "try to be extra cute".

References:
I want to say that the following translation is based off a translation done by someone else(I'd credit them but the subtitled vid I pulled this from has no translator name on it and the torrent is expired it seems o_O). I did a small bit of editing here and there as well as added the romaji and jp lyrics.
