From an OSV interview with Emi Evans in 2010:

Quote:
OSV: As an aside, we noticed you list Etrian Odyssey 1 and 2 on your videogame credits. We know a singer named Rebecca Evans worked on the SUPER ARRANGE VERSION albums that were released for these games, but we couldn’t find your name in the credits. Can you tell us about your work on these titles?

Evans: Rebecca Evans is me too! My full name is Emiko Rebecca Evans and Rebecca Evans was just the name I was using at the time. The composer Norihiko Hibino asked me to write lyrics in English and sing for a few of the tracks on Super Arrange Version. I was rather busy at the time so I asked my Dad, who is fabulous lyricist and poet in his spare time to write the lyrics for me and then I recorded the vocals. Mr. Hibino seemed very pleased with the result and I was happy to have been able to do a little family collaboration!
So should her father be credited as the lyricist instead? I dunno where we'd find her father's name though, or if that's too much personal prying.
