She started her dancing lessons at the age of 3. In 2003, at the age of 14, she started singing when her dancing teacher asked her to join a vocal training program. As soon as autumn of the same year she was signed to management, and in February 2005, "Love Shouts" was pre-released exclusively in the Kyushu area where Satomi was based.

In January 2005, at the precious age of 15, she was chosen to perform live at MIDEM, after beating many established names in Japan. This live performance was documented in a national newspaper and has been the center of attention of the Japanese media ever since.

As the first artist to be released on the Hiptones label, and under the guidance of the people behind UK’s legendary Creation label, Satomi was able to work with UK’s leading producers. This led to her showcase at the world famous venue Ronnie Scotts, in front of more than 100 people from the UK media in May 2005, making her, at the age of 16, the youngest and possibly first ever Japanese artist to be solo showcased in the UK. Her performance was well received, and in June 2005, "Toxic Love" was pre-released in a vinyl only format.

In 2006, Satomi debuted in Japan as SATOMI', releasing her first double a-side MAXI single 'Yesterday/Love to stay' in February. Satomi continued to release and record tracks in both the United Kingdom and Japan in early 2006. It was not until the release of her third double a-side MAXI single, "Orange canvas ~Aki no Sora no Shita de~ / Fairy's stick", that Satomi made the Oricon top 100 charts, debuting at #81.

Satomi released her first Japanese full album, "Diamondlily", in February 2007, jumping to the #15 spot on its initial release day.

satomi' Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

溢れるほどの情熱を
無駄にしないように
雑草のように根強く
雨にだって負けない
新しい自分見出したい
その好奇心抱いていれば
この旅はもっと
充実させられる気がするんだ

可能性は無限大と信じてる
心には沢山の
Uh...荷物は持たない主義さ
失敗や後悔は
マイナスにはならない
これからを輝かす
準備の一つなんだ
常に挑戦者でいたい
弱点も武器に出来るような
限界なんて
ただの思い込みにすぎないさ
才能を育てるのは自分なんだ
語るだけの夢じゃなく
Uh...決意に変えていこう
諦めない姿勢は奇跡を生む
人生を妥協して終わらせたくない
自分を疑わずに歩んでいこう
現実からもう目をそらさないよ
可能性は無限大と信じてる
心には沢山の
Uh...荷物は持たない主義さ
才能を育てるのは自分なんだ

語るだけの夢じゃなく
Uh...決意に変えていこう
