Shojotai debuted in 1984 with the album "Shojotaiphoon" and the single "Forever ~Gingam Check Story~." The line up featured members Aida Miho, Yasuhara Reiko and Ichikawa Chiiko. Chiiko retired on August 8, 1985, the release date of their appropriately titled single "Bye Bye Girl." In comes Hikita Tomoko to replace Chiiko. They record the single "Halley Romance" (released November 27, 1985) and the Shojotai Mk II line-up of Miho, Reiko and Tomoko was born. With the 1987 single "Sakamasa", Shojotai took a risk and fused their idol style with Eurobeat which paid off as it was considered innovative at the time. They continue into 1989 until calling it quits, but return one last time in 1999 to record the album "Juubeichan ~Lovely Gantai no Himitsu" and a new version of their debut single "Forever."

少女隊 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
許して下さい わがままを
友達なら それでもいい
いい聞かせたの 自分に
本当はつらいけど
How are you my friend? お元気ですか
貴方の所へいつでも 飛んでいきたい
How are you my friend? お元気ですか
いつものやさしい目を 思い出します
あなたの前で私は 子供のよう
わかってるの でも時々は
一人だけで夢を見ていたいのです
※How are you my friend? お元気ですか
貴方は私の一番大切な人
How are you my friend? 幸せですか
もすこしだけ 貴方のそばにいてもいいですか※
(※くりかえし)
もすこしだけ 貴方のそばにいてもいいですか
The lyrics to 少女隊's song お元気ですか?マイフレンド revolves around the theme of missing someone dearly and wanting to check up on them. The first verse expresses the singer's loneliness because they cannot meet the person and apologizes for being selfish about it. However, even if they are just friends, it's okay. They have been talking sweetly to themselves about meeting the person they miss so much. The last line of the verse reveals that the singer is actually in pain.
In the chorus, the singer asks how their friend is doing and expresses the desire to fly over to their place and see them. The singer also pleads with the friend to smile when they eventually meet again. The second verse describes how the singer remembers the friend's gentle eyes which make them feel like a child in their presence. However, even though the singer knows that, sometimes they want to be alone to dream by themselves.
Overall, the song portrays strong emotions of missing and longing, but with a subtle touch of hope and reassurance.

I got the first photobook of Shojotai and the casette from my dad's friend in Kyoto in 1984. I sang most of shojotai songs, been on stage since then. What a good memories, i played piano since i was 6 and continue to advanced my skills in piano with Yamaha school because of Shojotai. Love you forever. Ishiteru.
