About 森高千里

Chisato Moritaka (森高 千里, Moritaka Chisato; married name Chisato Eguchi 江口千里) was born in Osaka, Japan on April 11, 1969 and raised in Kumamoto, Kyushu, Japan. She rose to talent awareness as the winner of the "Pocari Sweat Image Girl Contest" in 1986. Her singing career as the unrivaled "Dance Queen" began in May 1987 with the release of her first album, New Season. She differed from many other female Idol Singers in Japan in that she wrote her own lyrics and some music for her albums. She also played drums on most of the tracks, as well as piano, clarinet, and other instruments. Her advertising jingles were hits into the mid 1990s in television commercials for such goods as chocolate and gin. She has also made numerous appearances on Japanese game and talent shows and is still a household name. In twelve years after her debut she released seventeen albums and created a cult following of devoted fans. Some say that she displaced Yoko Oginome as the reigning "Dance Queen" of the mid to late 1980's. Yoko's singing career faded as Chisato's rose and endured far longer. Moritaka currently hosts Nippon Broadcasting System's All Night Nippon Music 10 every second Wednesday of the month. She also hosted the Fuji TV program Love Music until its final episode on 17 September 2023. Official Website: www.moritaka-chisato.com
