Takeuchi started her own career with a single "Modotte-Oide, Watashi no Jikan" in 1978. From the late 1970s to the early '80s, she has recorded 5 albums and several singles including top-ten hit "Fushigi na Peach Pie". Those materials have featured dozens of Japanese and North American distinguished songwriters, instrumentalists, and producers, such as David Foster, Jim Keltner, Jay Graydon, Steve Lukather, Jeff Porcaro, David Hungate, Kazuhiko Kato, Kunihiko Kase, Shigeru Suzuki, Takashi Matsumoto, and her future long-term partner Tatsuro Yamashita.
"Heart to Heart", one of her songs co-written by Roger Nichols and released in 1980, was recorded by the Carpenters two years later, and became the last recording for the late Karen Carpenter.
In 1981, Takeuchi married to a singer-songwriter Tatsuro Yamashita, and stopped her career temporarily owing to the pregnancy. After her comeback to the Japanese music industry in 1984, she has accomplished huge commercial success more than when she was single. From that year to the present, she has recorded 6 successful studio albums that mainly consisted of her self-penned songs, and all of them have reached #1 on the Japanese Oricon chart.
As a singer-songwriter, she has produced 8 top-ten hit singles on the Oricon, including "Single Again", "Kokuhaku", "Junai Rhapsody", "Konya wa Hearty Party" and her only #1 hit "Camouflage".

竹内まりや Lyrics
避けるように 今は誰も
彼のことを口にしない だけど
雨音悲しげな 真夜中のベッドで
まだ心が痛むことに気付いた
遥か遠い出来事さえ
昨日のように 思い出してしまう
さよならで途切れた その後の消息を
知っていたら誰か教えて
そんな二人が何処かで 偶然に出会っても
同じように愛せないとわかってる
知らない同士なのね ただそれだけ それだけ
長い間離れてると 寂しいとは思わなくなるもの
それでも突然に 面影探しては
もう戻れない時へさまよう
新しい愛を見つけ
もとのように元気でいることを伝え聞いて
少しだけやきもちを妬いてる
聞かなければよかった
そんな二人が何処かで 偶然に出会っても
同じように愛せないとわかってる
知らない同士なのね ただそれだけ
それだけ それだけ
彼のことを口にしない だけど
雨音悲しげな 真夜中のベッドで
まだ心が痛むことに気付いた
遥か遠い出来事さえ
昨日のように 思い出してしまう
さよならで途切れた その後の消息を
知っていたら誰か教えて
そんな二人が何処かで 偶然に出会っても
知らない同士なのね ただそれだけ それだけ
長い間離れてると 寂しいとは思わなくなるもの
それでも突然に 面影探しては
もう戻れない時へさまよう
新しい愛を見つけ
もとのように元気でいることを伝え聞いて
少しだけやきもちを妬いてる
聞かなければよかった
そんな二人が何処かで 偶然に出会っても
同じように愛せないとわかってる
知らない同士なのね ただそれだけ
それだけ それだけ
