She composed songs herself for Denmark's Scandinavian Records in 1997, debuting with the song Hero.

Video Production Information
I just went with the easy option of phones. Sorry.
Thinking of the cute vocals and song lyrics being aimed towards girls, I made the backgrounds poppy colors.
Even beatmania can be cute once in a while.
