(Copied from ANN)
Japanese singer-songwriter Izumi Sakai, better known as Zard, died on Sunday (May 27, 2007) of a brain contusion after falling three meters (10 feet) off the landing of a staircase at the Keio University Hospital. She was undergoing treatment for cervical cancer. Sakai, whose real name was Sachiko Kamachi, was 40 years old. The ex-model wrote and performed theme songs for numerous anime projects, including Slam Dunk, Yawara! Special - Zutto Kimi no Koto ga…, Dragon Ball GT, Chuuka Ichiban!, and Detective Conan (Case Closed). Thanks, John. Source: Asahi
I loved her songs ;_; I almost cried when I read the news today.
Thank you Sakai-san for sharing your songs with us all, and I hope that you can find peace ^_^
I've never heard of her or listened to any of her music, but I'm sad after reading this. Recently dead people always look so great in retrospect.
