So, the day we’ve all (well, maybe not all) been waiting (and maybe no waiting… maybe more like anticipating) for has finally arrived! It’s Miya’s birthday!
And so, first up, we’ll have Miya singing about her birthday. 
So, it’s 16 days to Miyabi’s 16th birthday, so let the birthday count down begin!
To start off the count down, I’m going to go over the song that first brought Miyabi to my attention.. And no, I don’t mean when she became prominent for me… Just the first time she caught my eye. It is because of this song that I wanted to learn more about her when I started becoming interested in Berryz Koubou a few years later.
Back in the year 2003, a one-time Hello!Project subgroup was formed. Aa! featured Tanaka Reina of Morning Musume, and two Hello! Project Kids, Natsuyaki Miyabi and Suzuki Airi.
A few days ago, zush shared some audio files of Risako from her solo event on June 5th. After reading that post, I went to see if I could find a recording of Miyabi’s solo event from June 6th, and lo-and-behold, a link to a fan recording was available on the JPH!P forums.
I really was hoping that there would be a recording available, because I had read that one of the songs Miya performed was ‘Masayume’ - the b-side to Aa!’s ‘FIRST KISS’. I absolutely adore that song, and have never heard it live. To get a recording of Miya performing it solo was just… WOW! ^_^ (And don’t mind the random pics I’m sticking in… I just felt like some Miya eyecandy)
That link to JPH!P I shared has the entire event recorded, but for those of you who just want to hear the songs, I have cut out the 3 songs she performed and have them ready for your listening pleasure. It’s not the greatest quality recording, obviously, but you can hear Miya quite clearly. Hope you enjoy the audio! To listen you can click on the link, or you can wait a bit (depending on your connection speed), and eventually a little triangle will appear next to the song title (much like the play button next to ‘Last Forever’ on the sidebar) and you can play it without clicking out from this page.
