BONNIE PINK first appeared on the scene in 1995, though her debut album, ''[[Blue Jam]]'' failed to gain her much notice. She was discovered while singing at her university music festival.  After meeting [[Wikipedia:The Cardigans|The Cardigans]] producer [[Wikipedia:Tore Johansson|Tore Johansson]], with whom she recorded her next two albums, she released ''[[Heaven's Kitchen (album)|Heaven's Kitchen]]'' two years later, an album which gained her good sales and recognition. To date she has released ten albums, as well as several best albums in addition to a remix album. She has also sung the ending theme for the Japanese animation series ''[[Wikipedia:Rurouni Kenshin|Rurouni Kenshin]]'', and ''[[Wikipedia:Gantz|GANTZ]]''.

She lived in New York during 1998 and speaks English (many of her songs are entirely in English). She writes and composes all her songs, and plays guitar and piano. Kaori Asada has said that the name Bonnie Pink is random and that she thought the words were cute together. There is no special meaning behind the name, she chose it because it was easy to remember.[1]

Bonnie Pink was quite famous in her early years during the 90s and the early 2000s, but she slowly drifted out of popularity. However, in 2006 her hit single "A Perfect Sky" went to the top of the charts and brought her back into the J-Pop spotlight and her latest albums have become very popular and major successes for the singer.

Bonnie Pink debuted in 1995 with her single, "Orenji", under her real name, Asada Kaori. Her first album, Blue Jam, was released that same year under the Pony Canyon record label. She described it as a "mixture of bitter honey, blues music, momentary silence, irresistible madness, teardrops, sourgrapes, hopeful bombs, big big love, and a few green apples" in the jacket. It introduced her unique style of music that has been defined as an off-beat mix between jazz, blues, pop, and rock. The next year she met Tore Johansson, Swedish producer for The Cardigans, who became her good friend and produced much of her work. The song "It's Gonna Rain!" was the fifth ending of the anime Rurouni Kenshin. She wrote her third album, Evil & Flowers (1998), while in isolation in the Swedish countryside. She hoped to find inspiration there, but became depressed. She put her feelings of frustration into the songs.

On her fourth album, Let Go, she worked with Mitchell Froom, New York producer of Elvis Costello, Cibo Matto, and Suzanne Vega. He gave her co-production credit for the album because he was so impressed with her. Her fifth album, Just a Girl, came out in 2001. The next year she collaborated with other artists and released re*PINK, a remix album. Present came out in 2003 and Even So in 2004. Golden Tears, which features the single "So Wonderful", came out in 2005. Bonnie released a new single "Love is Bubble" in May 2006. Her June 2006 single "A Perfect Sky", featured in an Anessa makeup commercial with popular model Yuri Ebihara, reached number 2 on the Oricon singles charts, making it the most successful single in Bonnie Pink's career. Her new "Best Of" album sold out quickly at Amazon Japan and reached number two on the Oricon charts and continued to chart in the top 30 becoming one of the top selling albums of the year. In November 2006, she was featured in M-Flo's single "Love Song." The single was a hit for both M-Flo and Bonnie Pink, it debuted at number 7 on the Oricon charts which is a big leap from M-Flo's previous singles and gained Bonnie Pink another top 10 single.

Bonnie Pink, shortly after releasing her previous single, began performing on popular TV music shows and promoting her latest single, "Water Me", which is the theme song for the popular drama Watashitachi no Kyōkasho (Our Textbooks) a dark, melancholy drama about a young girl's suicide and the effect on her school.

Information

BONNIE PINK first appeared on the scene in 1995, though her debut album, Blue Jam failed to gain her much notice. She was discovered while singing at her university music festival. After meeting The Cardigans producer Tore Johansson, with whom she recorded her next two albums, she released Heaven's Kitchen two years later, an album which gained her good sales and recognition. To date she has released ten albums, as well as several best albums in addition to a remix album. She has also sung the ending theme for the Japanese animation series Rurouni Kenshin, and GANTZ. She sings in English with reasonable skill in addition to her native Japanese.
