1. Mayumi Ya… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least four artists under the name "Cindy":
1. Mayumi Yamamoto (山本真裕美, born May 5, 1958), known solely by her stage name Cindy, was a Japanese singer-songwriter, active as a singer from 1984 to 1997 and as a songwriter from 1984 to 1998.
She is probably best known for her song "私達を信じていて", and composing multiple Number One hits for Miho Nakayama, namely "人魚姫", "Witches" and "ROSÉCOLOR".
She passed away due to cancer at the age of 42 in Los Angeles, on January 12th, 2001.
2. A pop punk group from Auckland New Zealand
3. Kai Hugo, the dutch house producer rebranded himself as Palmbomen II in 2015 and released an ace album of psychedelic acid jams on Beats In Space. He named all the tracks on that record after various minor characters from episodes of The X-Files, but one of them – ‘Cindy Savalas’ – stuck somehow.
His next album, Memories of Cindy, filled in a fictional biography. Cindy lived in the small Californian town of Carmel Vista and died in mysterious circumstances. Hugo hired actor and model Blue LoLãn to give a face and voice to the character, and she sang on a few of the tracks – notably its blistering highlight, ‘Are You Friends with Amber?’.
Now Cindy has her own album – a pretty good, shoegaze-tinged dream pop record, recorded before the character’s ‘death’, with a loose narrative about her life, loves, and heartbreaks. LoLãn is front and centre, singing and talking on every track, breathing life into a character that has become an uncanny avatar for both LoLãn and Hugo.
4. San Franciso based group fronted by Karina Gill, together with Aaron Diko, Jesse Jackson and Simon Phillips. They released their first self-titled album in 2018, followed by Free Advice in 2020 and 1:2 in 2021. They are due to release a new album, Why Not Now?, on 14th April 2023.

あなたひとりの 招待状よ
I try to keep it My little secret
約束は今日 ふたりだけの夜
顔に出さない あなたの想い
女の目には かくせないのよ
Don't try to hide it? Don't try to fight it?
This is an open invitation
I'm planning on a celebration
Ooh baby for your information
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
It's not just my imagination
Filling me with anticipation
Come on, give in to the temptation
'Cuz I'm the one you really need
Boy, when it's just you and I
How wonderful it'll be
電話のベルは 鳴らさないでね
つれない返事 ききたくないわ
Don't try to hide it? Don't try to fight it?
待たせないでね ふたりだけの夜
This is an open invitation
I'm planning on a celebration
Ooh baby for your information
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me
It's not just my imagination
Filling me with anticipation
Come on, give in to the temptation
'Cuz I'm the one you really need
Come up and see sometime
I'll show you what I mean
Boy, when it's just you and I
How wonderful it'll be!
The lyrics of CINDY's song "Open Invitation" suggest a woman inviting a man over for a romantic evening. She hands him a silver key, which seems to symbolize a key to her heart and a sign of trust. She assures him that it is only they who will spend the evening together, and she can see through his attempts to hide his feelings. She insists that she can't wait any longer and extends an open invitation to him, hoping to make him fall in love with her. She also asks him not to call her as she doesn't want any cold response from him. The song highlights the singer's confidence, her anticipation for the evening, and her willingness to make him fall in love with her.
The chorus of the song includes the lyrics, "This is an open invitation, I'm planning on a celebration, Ooh baby for your information, I'm gonna make you fall in love with me." The singer expresses herself very directly and doesn't hesitate to act on her feelings. She is also aware of the man's hesitancy to express his feelings, and she tries to pull him towards her by extending the invitation to him. The singer suggests that when they are together, they will have a wonderful time, which seems to convey her idea of a romantic evening filled with joy.

So crazy that I've listened to her stuff for years but only found out she died this week...now I'm bummed out about a death that happened back when I was still in my 20's. That ain't no good.

her voice really touches you, her song “watashitachi wo shinjiteite” is mad sad but warm.
