Graduated from Fukuoka Jyogakuin and then Kunitachi Music University in 1989. During her student days, she visited LA and decided to pursue a career in pop music after seeing Bobbie and Babyface in concert. Soon after, she began taking voice lessons from Seth Riggs, Michael Jackson's voice trainer of 3 years. Her favorite singer is David Foster.
After returning from America, her first album "Bingo!" was released in July 1992, but the first big smash hit for her was her 3rd single released in December 1993, "Romance no Kamisama", which sold 1.75 million copies. Subsequent album and single releases around that time of year earned her the title of the "Queen of Winter", and this was reinforced with the single "Gerende ga tokeruhodo koi shitai" in December 1995. She did not do any live tours until 2001, and when tickets went on sale, they sold out in 15 minutes. Another concert tour, only her second, was performed during early 2007. A DVD of this tour will be released in December. Her musical output seems to be slowing down, with 2007 only producing 2 greatest hits albums.
Kohmi married actor Takao Osawa in 1998, but they announced they were getting divorced in November 2006. She has written songs and produced music for many other artists, including Hitomi Shimatani, and is now the principal of a successful vocal school in Shibuya called "DoDream".

会いたい 何度も受話器上げて
繰り返す留守電のメッセージ
あなたの声が 涙を誘うの
くやしくて 情けなくて
世界一ミジメな私
幸せになれるよ 私となら
未来を誓えるよ あなたとなら
ほどけない
出会いは運命だった
あの日の二人 そう信じてた
素直に好きだと抱き合えた
お互いのわがまま許し合えた
私から変わらなくちゃ
明日は永遠に来ない
小さくてイイ 見えなくてもイイ
あなたと同じ 夢を叶えたい
二つの心 はぐれた青い鳥
追いかけて
幸せになれるよ 私となら
未来を誓えるよ あなたとなら
二人の距離は もつれた赤い糸
ほどけない
小さくてイイ 見えなくてもイイ
あなたと同じ 夢を叶えたい
二つの心 はぐれた青い鳥
追いかけて
Ah 幸せになりたい
Ah 幸せになりたい
The lyrics to 広瀬香美's song 幸せになりたい speak about the emotions of a lonely individual searching for happiness and wanting to be with someone they love. The first stanza talks about the loneliness of the person, who repeatedly picks up the phone to check for messages and is moved to tears by the sound of the voice of the person they want to be with. The loneliness makes them feel frustrated and helpless, and they feel like the saddest person in the world. But they know that they will be happy if they are with the person they love, and they promise to build a future together, with the image of the two of them tied together by an unbreakable red thread.
The second stanza speaks of a chance encounter between two individuals who believed that their meeting was predestined. They are able to be honest with each other and embrace their love, indulging in their selfishness and forgiving each other's faults. They realize that they need to change to be with each other and that tomorrow is unpredictable. They have a shared dream that they both want to fulfill, and they are like two blue birds chasing after each other. The chorus repeats the idea that the singer wants to be happy and promises to have a bright future with the person they love while the thread that binds them together will never come undone.
Overall, the song conveys the theme of hope, love, and perseverance in the face of loneliness and sadness. It speaks of the importance of finding someone to share one's life with and the promises and commitments that come with being in a relationship.
