The song "Hey Girl" by MiChi is a sassy and upbeat track about a woman who has moved on from a relationship and is no longer interested in her former partner. She provides advice to other women to forget the men who have wronged them and to embrace their own power. MiChi encourages girls to speak up and share their thoughts with one another. She expresses her inner feelings and pain caused by the previous relationship but is now ready to move forward. The song's overall message is one of self-empowerment and self-love, and MiChi encourages others to take control of their lives and not to be held back by past hurts.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Bet you thought I'd be crying for you, Bet you thought I'd be dying for you" which shows that the singer is not phased by her ex’s actions, and is able to move on from her past relationship. She invites her ex to come closer, but warns him that she will not be acknowledging him or taking him back. She has found her own strength and can stand up for herself.
As we listen to "Hey Girl" by MiChi, we can hear the synth-pop beat under her soulful voice. This song was the opening theme for the second season of the anime "Dragonaut -The Resonance-", which aired in Japan in 2007. The single was released on January 23rd, 2008, and peaked at number 16 on the Oricon charts. The song has also been included in two of MiChi's albums, "MiChi MadNesS" and "THERAPY."
