1) angela is a JPop duo from Okayama, Japan composed of atsuko (lyrics, vocals, musical composition) and KATSU (musical composition and arrangment, keyboards, guitar).
angela has released a grand total of nineteen singles (six on a major label), one maxi single, one promotional CD, four mini CD albums, and five full-length CD albums (one on a major label). Additionally, their music has been featured on other anime-related soundtrack CDs.
Ironically, atsuko and KATSU did not realize that they were both born in the same town of Okayama until they went to the same music school in Tokyo. There, their same origin allowed them to bond together into the earliest incarnation of angela. They decided to work together, and they have come a long way since then.
Originally, angela was an independent band, performing in clubs and otherwise since 1993 and in 1999 they made their debut with the single memories, however this release went largely unnoticed. In 2002, they were signed by KING RECORDS after one of their representatives heard a song that Katsu had improvised from the ever-popular Zankoku na Tenshi no Thesis. After that, their debut single, Asu e no brilliant road became the cornerstone of success for angela. This was success that granted them several popular singles for the Uchuu no Stellvia and Sokyuu no Fafner anime series and a popular album, Sora no Koe -- success that granted them even a live concert in the United States at Otakon 2004 in Baltimore, Maryland.
angela's newest album, "I/O", was released in November on King Records and is available.
They are also known for the parapara dance routine which accompanies Asu e no brilliant road that "is very popular in Tokyo" according to angela.
angela performed at Sakuracon 2005 in Seattle, Washington, and will be performing at CN Anime 2005 in Toronto, Ontario
Their live concerts consist of a background layer of music, arranged by KATSU beforehand. At the concert, atsuko performs a vocal track live, as KATSU performs a guitar track live. Therefore, the songs in all of their concerts are pre-determined to a greater extent than other bands.

木枯らしに乗って届け
夜は終わらぬメビウスの輪の様な
Merry-go-round
温もりが微かに残る
ベッドに沈んで崩れた
あなたが帰る場所はもう
此処じゃなくなったから
これ以上続けられない
裏切りと罪の間で leave me alone
巡る巡る恋模様
誰にも知られぬままに
サヨナラさえ言えぬあたしの中は
Merry-go-round
あなただけを見つめながら
心は一つになれない
叶わぬ夢を追いかける話の
あたしはピエロ
モラルも知識も見栄も教養も
どーでもいーほどあなたのことだけ
ぐるぐる回って壊れて直して
胸が痛くなる
どっちがどっちをあたしがあなたを
やったやってない乗った乗ってない
泣いて泣いて泣いて泣いて
そして愛し合いたいよ
最後って言いながら何度目の
夜がまた更けて行くわ
奪えない中途半端さが
あたしを絡ませる
今願いが叶うならば
時間を止めてください
あなたに揺れ動く心
木枯らしに乗って届け
夜は終わらぬメビウスの輪の様な
Merry-go-round
巡る巡る恋模様
誰にも知られぬままに
サヨナラさえ言えぬあたしの中は
Merry-go-round
The lyrics of Angela's song "Merry-Go-Round" describe a woman whose heart is in turmoil, as she chases an unfulfilled dream of love. She watches as her lover leaves her, realizing that she is no longer his home. The merry-go-round metaphor is used throughout the song, suggesting the cyclical nature of love and heartbreak. The woman is conflicted between her love for her partner and the guilt and betrayal that she feels within herself. She admits that she cannot continue to hold onto her affair with him, as she is torn between the lines of sin and morality. The song ends with the woman hoping that time could be stopped, and she could find peace in her heartache.
The song is a ballad with a mournful melody that complements the emotions in the lyrics. The use of the merry-go-round metaphor creates a sense of cyclical despair, which the woman cannot escape. The lyrics are also reflective of contemporary Japanese culture, where themes of love and heartbreak are commonly explored in popular music. The song conveys a sense of emotional honesty and vulnerability that resonates with listeners who have experienced heartbreak.
