In 1999, during their final high school year, the group represented the Kansai region in the All Japan Final of the 'Teen Music Festival'. They won the 'Encouragement Award' and were given the chance to record a demo, and have it distrubuted by a major label.
The demo was released February 11, 2001, and had the songs "FULL MOON PRAYER" and "Angel" on it. It sold well enough for them to sign a stronger contract and release more music.
After releasing nine singles, five albums, and one best compilation, the members of CORE OF SOUL decided to disband.
After an Asia-wide tour, the group official ceased on March 24, 2006.
Nakamura Fukiko is currently releasing her solo works under the name "LOVE".

失うことへの恐れは山のごとく
きっと今は無理にというよりも
偶然と言う名の必然を待とう
Get over the time
Before the time is over
Get over the time
Before the time is over
あきらめるにはまだ早い
目の前の峠越える術がなくとも
向こう側へは辿り着ける気がするの
きっと今は静かなる準備の時
安心して流れにこの身を任せよう
Get over the time
Before the time is over
Get over the time
Before the time is over
明日も光を迎えられるなら
一歩ずつでも前へ
Get over the time
Before the time is over
Get over the time
Before the time is over
明日も戦が続いてゆくなら
進まずとも
例え前へ進めなくても
この夢を この夢を
私はこの夢を守る
