1) Erika Sawajiri (沢尻エリカ) who goes by ERIKA for her music releases, is a Japanese actress, model, gravure idol and singer. She passed the Stardust audition in 1999 after graduating from elementary school. The following year she became part of the idol unit "ANGEL EYES" and began modelling for junior fashion magazines like CUTiE and nicola. In 2001 she won the Grand Prize for that year's Seikore and became a regular on the BS news program Harajuku Launchers.
In 2002 Erika began taking on more tasks as an actress and gravure idol. She was one of Fuji TV's Visual Queens for the year (along with Ichikawa Yui, Karina, and Yarita Ayano), and also had a part in the film Mondai no nai Watashitachi. She became a regular of the NTV music variety show THE YORU mo Hit Parade from April to late June, and shortly before leaving the program was on the CX News program Chou VIP Fortune no Tobira from mid-June to late August. In November she was on the CBC variety show Bijou Dokyuu and also on the TBS show B-1.
Erika continued her work into 2003, this time getting roles in PVs. She also began acting in various dramas, including a small role in the popular drama HOTMAN. In 2004 Erika continued to act in dramas, but it can be said she earned the most attention in 2005 for her portrayal of Ikeuchi Aya in the drama 1 Litre no Namida, a young girl with a degenerating brain disease that affects one's motor skills. It was also in 2005 that she starred in the film PACCHIGI!.
2006 proved to be yet another busy year for Erika, as she starred in two films and the drama adaptation of Taiyou No Uta. She also released a single in her role as Kaoru Amane for the drama entitled タイヨウのうた (Taiyou No Uta), of which rocker Shiratori Maika (白鳥マイカ) penned the lyrics for.

5) Detroit artist Erika Sherman. Erika dreams on the cellular level, or perhaps of transdimensional intelligences moving through strange patterns on celestial objects, working towards a mysterious goal. Her connection to the dreamworld becomes concrete in her approach to music, simultaneously so solid and yet so ethereal. Erika still finds time to accomplish many things in her waking hours, such as being a member of Ectomorph, co-conspirator of Detroit's Interdimensional Transmissions record label, DJing with vinyl, making music with her pet machines, and running http://erika.net - a freeform streaming radio station. Erika.net celebrates its 14th year this year, being one of the very first iTunes presets. From 1993 through 1999, Erika was very involved in WCBN in Ann Arbor, as a freeform and jazz DJ, and Program Director.
The daughter of a famed scientist and already running a well known BBS from her bedroom by the time she was 13, Erika is no stranger to expressing her ideas through technology. In 1997 she was handed a TR-606 and asked to join Ectomorph, and has since become an electronic musician of the highest order, focusing on analog synthesis, with live hardware sequencing that allows transformation over time and a deep depth of tone. The release of her debut solo double album Hexagon Cloud is due imminently on IT.

Follow me
Follow me
(Come to my home)
I've been around the world
Where good and evil are right
I've seen the end of hope
But now I will stop looking
For a new place to go
Somebody is waiting for me
Where right and wrong are love
You don't stop believing
You can find a way on through
Another point of view
Where right and wrong are blue
Where right and wrong are blue
(Follow me)
Right or wrong
(Follow me)
Right or wrong
(Only love is right and wrong)
(Only love is right and wrong)
(Only love is right and wrong)
(Only love is right and wrong)
(Come to my home)
I never close my eyes
'Cause I'm afraid of the dark
I never stay alone
'Cause I'd feel sad in my heart
But now I will stop looking
For a new place to go
Somebody is waiting for me
Where right and wrong are love
You don't stop believing
You can find a way on through
Another point of view
Where right and wrong are blue
Where right and wrong are blue
(Follow me)

Right or Wrong
(Only Love is right and wrong)
(Only Love is right and wrong)

The song "Right or Wrong" by Erika is a deeply introspective and contemplative reflection on the human experience of searching for meaning in a world that can often seem chaotic and morally ambiguous. The first verse sets the scene for the journey that the singer has been on, traveling around the world and witnessing the various ways in which people define and grapple with the concepts of good and evil. The second verse, however, reveals that this quest has left the singer feeling unfulfilled and restless, as she continues to search for a place where she can feel at home and at peace.
The refrain of the song, "Follow me, right or wrong," suggests that the singer is inviting the listener to join her on this journey of self-discovery and exploration, regardless of whether it leads to certainty or uncertainty. The repeated mantra of "only love is right and wrong" reinforces this idea, as it suggests that the search for meaning is ultimately futile without a grounding in the fundamental human experience of love.
The final lines of the song, "Come to my home," suggest that the singer has found a sense of belonging and connection with someone or something that transcends the moral ambiguities of the world. Ultimately, "Right or Wrong" is a song about the human need for connection, meaning, and love in the face of a complex and often confusing world.
