Three Lights

"Three Lights" is actually a fictional group of girls disguising themselves as male Japanese Idol singers created by the manga-ka Takeuchi Naoko. They are prominently featured in the Sailor Moon anime's 5th Season: "Sailor Stars", as well as many musical stage performances based on this series. Their music can be found on the Sailor Stars OSTs (Original Sound Tracks), as well as many BSSM compilations. (Taken from the Wikipedia Article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Lights ) Their hit songs include "Nagareboshi He" ("Shooting Star" in English) and "Todokanu Omoi" ("Hidden Feelings" in English), the latter of which featured Kaioh Michiru on violins in a live performance in Sailor Stars. (The following information is taken from the wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailor_Starlights ) In the anime, the Three Lights have two songs as a group: "Todokanu Omoi" and "Nagareboshi he." Each of the Starlights also has their own image song and poem. The poems are read in character as their idol personas, ending in a transformation. The songs are sung as a mix from both their idol and senshi identities. The three singles are: Seiya/StarFighter - "Ginga Ichi Mibun Chigai na Kataomoi" (A Galaxy of Difference: One-Sided Love) Yaten/StarHealer - "Mayo Naka hitori" (Alone at Midnight) Taiki/StarMaker - "Chikara wo Awasete" (Combining Strengths) The musicals add two more songs for the Three Lights: "Chasin' After You" and "See Me, Boku-tachi no Jidai." Two version of the former song exist, as the instrumentals were remixed for the 12th musical. There is also a duet between Usagi and Seiya, "I Miss You," which explicitly states Seiya's romantic feelings to Usagi while juxtaposing it against Usagi's longing for a missing Mamoru. The musicals also feature a themesong for the Starlights, "A Shooting Star Light," performed by all three in their senshi forms. An additional piece focuses on their interaction with Princess Kakyuu, titled "Kakyuu to Three Lights," in which Kakyuu advises the Starlights to fight alongside Sailor Moon. The Starlights also assist in perfoming "Sailor War Supreme," where "Chasin' After You" is briefly restated as a leitmotif and layered with several other senshi themes. --------------------------------------------- The voice actors of the Three Lights who provide the singing talent are all female: Niiyama Shiho (March 21, 1970 – February 7, 2000)- Kou Seiya Sakamoto Chika/Sakamoto Chinatsu (August 17, 1959 - Present) - Kou Yaten Tsunoda Narumi (March 14, 1962 - Present) - Kou Taiki ==Other Voices== In the musical soundtracks, Seiya has been voiced by 2 actresses: Sayuri Katayama and Chinatsu Akiyama In the musical soundtracks, Yaten has been voiced by 2 actresses: Momoko Okuyama and Mikako Tabe In the musical soundtracks, Taiki has been voiced by 2 actresses: Hikari Ono and Akiko Nakayama Read more on Last.fm.
