User blog:JoshuaJSlone/On Suzuki Sayaka

Back in summer 2012 after getting bit by the Jmusic bug but before seriously gravitating to Tsunku and Hello! Project, I browsed Amazon for what digital Japanese music they had. I had no iTunes account or wish for one all things being equal. I found this list a person had put together of various things that were available. One that caught my attention was for a Suzuki Sayaka release with a blurb including "Not for everyone--uber-cute voice singing to Nintendo-ish music" which caught my interest. I checked it out and was hooked. So weird but brought a smile to my face.

This led to me searching for more information about her and finding... not much! Her career basically seemed to span 2002-2006, and she wasn't exactly a big hit so there wasn't a lot to be found. Not even, say, a J Wikipedia page. It doesn't help that both Suzuki and Sayaka are quite common names, leading to many false matches. Joshua and Slone are quite common too, so I know how that goes.

By chance within a half year of my discovering her she released another single, but since then it's been dark. Still not even a Wikipedia page. A time or two I considered making a Wikia wiki of very limited scope with what little information could be found. BUT someplace like this with a bit of a broader area of coverage should be just fine. Some of the information will be pretty thin, but there is what there is.
