Something is going right
You came into a world today
O Something beautiful
And wonderful
Nothing can take that away
Something has changed today
One and one became three
O you are beautiful
And wonderful
We always love you so
Singing, Smiling
No matter what you do
Singing, Smiling
Making the best for you
(Interlude)
Everything is brighter now
You came into a world today
O you brought happiness and Love
Into our lives again
The world is new today
You made your family whole
O you are beautiful
And wonderful
We love to watch you grow
Singing, Smiling
You're growing everyday
Singing, Smiling
Sharing your happiness
Life can be a rough ride
But we're alway on your side
Keep moving forward
One step, one step
Singing, Smiling
No matter where you are
Singing, Smiling
Making your dreams come true
Making your dreams come true
You are our dream come true

Artist Profile
Deris Takagi
物心ついた頃から音楽に興味を示し、3歳の頃、独学でピアノを弾き始める。 夜中にこっそりテレビをつけ、クラシック番組を観ては怒られる日々。 中学3年生の時、テレビでポルノグラフィティを観たことがきっかけで、それまでクラッシックにしか興味がなかったのが一転、POPSを歌い始める。 歌の基礎を学ぶため、高校卒業と同時にオーストリア、ウィーンのグスタフ・マーラー音楽院Solo Gesang科に進学。 副科のピアノ試験では審査員からスタンディングオベーションが起こるなど、歌以外でもその音楽性を発揮。 2回の飛び級を経て、審査員全員満点でディプロム課程修了。 同年、ウィーン国立音楽大学サマーセミナーでディプロム過程修了。 帰国後はボーカルインストラクターや高級ホテルラウンジでのJASS演奏、ディナーショー出演の仕事をしながら、ロック、ポップス、ジャズ、歌謡曲、ボカロやアニソン系のライブに多数出演。
