Gabriela Robin

Gabriela Robin is a singer, credited for nonsensical and broken language lyrics and vocals on many songs composed and arranged by Yoko Kanno.

There is virtually no information available on Gabriela Robin, leading many to speculate that "Gabriela Robin" is a pseudonym used by Yoko Kanno herself. The fact that Robin seems to have done no work apart from Kanno (with exception to the work of Kanno's husband, Hajime Mizoguchi), as well as lyrics and vocals credited to both Kanno and Robin in different places seem to support this theory. One may also note Kanno's refusal to speak of Robin, and Mizoguchi's response that Robin's identity and language are a "company secret".

Some of the better-known soundtracks with performances by Robin are Cowboy Bebop, Jin-Roh, Macross Plus, Please Save My Earth and The Vision of Escaflowne.

Some continuing to look for information on Gabriela will find people with Robin's name. A few of these people are: a Central American author and artist, a law student and a music producer. However it has been confirmed that they are not the same "Gabriela".
