She has sung ending themes for several Japanese anime: "It's gonna rain!" for Rurouni Kenshin, "Last Kiss" for Gantz, "Cotton Candy" for Guyver: Bioboosted Armor. "Love is Bubble" is used as the theme song for the Japanese movie Memories of Matsuko (嫌われ松子の一生), which also casts her. She also sings the song Kane wo Narashite for the Tales of Vesperia game by Namco Bandai, as well as recording Ring a Bell in English for the US/EU release. Although the tune is the same, they actually share different lyrics if translated.
BONNIE PINK is another of the multi-talented females doing it for themselves; not only a song-writer, she often takes part in the composing process and has proved to have talent in it. Her style is somewhat softer than singers such as Shiina Ringo, but her skill is no less evident. She also has a talent for singing in both English and Japanese with reasonable skill.

歩き出す
Brand-new な人生を君無しで
捨てた者を書き出しても返らない
無いいつもの元気なんて
夏が来て one step
秋が来て two steps
冬が来て春を待つ頃卒業できるかな
Ever since you heard me curse
Ever since the nocturne
fainted away
My home had been you
ここからって言ったのは私だった
音を上げて格好つかない勝負
探したってウィンドーにも映らない
無いいつもの姿なんて
夏が来て one step
秋が来て two steps 冬が来て
春を待つ頃自由になれるかな
Ever since you saw me cry
Ever since you heard me curse
Ever since the nocturne
fainted away
My home had been you
Ever since you saw me cry
Ever since you heard me curse
Ever since the nocturne
fainted away
My home had been you
Ever since you saw me cry
Ever since you heard me curse
Ever since the nocturne
fainted away
My home had been you
Ever since you saw me cry
Ever since you heard me curse
Ever since the nocturne
fainted away
My home had been you
The nocturne is back
The nocturne is back in me
The song "Nocturne" by Bonnie Pink is a reflective ballad about moving on from a past relationship and finding oneself again. The lyrics speak of starting a brand new life without the person who was once the center of everything, the one who used to be "home." Even though the singer feels sad and lost, she knows that she has to keep walking forward and leave the memories behind in order to find herself again. She wonders if she will ever be able to graduate from this emotional limbo and be free, but she also acknowledges that the journey will be long and uncertain.
The metaphor of the "nocturne" is central to the song. A nocturne is a musical piece that is usually played at night, and is often associated with melancholy and introspection. In the song, the nocturne represents the singer's past relationship, which has now faded away. She remembers how she used to cry and curse, and how the music used to fill her home with meaning. However, now that the nocturne has "fainted away," she realizes that her true home is within herself, and that she has to find her own way without relying on someone else.
Overall, "Nocturne" is a poignant song about the journey to self-discovery after a painful breakup. Through its use of musical and lyrical imagery, it captures the emotions of both loss and hope, and reminds us that even in the darkest moments, there is always a way forward.
