For those who've been around since DDR 4th Mix and so on, her name seems very familiar to you. What some of you may not know is that she is a jazz and bossanova singer performing as a vocalist in night clubs through Greater Tokyo Area. She also stated that she has been in Japan for at least 6 years.

Then obviously, she is one of the few foreign artists supplying voices to BEMANI songs. Don't know what her last song is though (was it Raspberry Heart???). Was it in 2004???

In any case, she is not with BEMANI anymore as she know voices songs for NAMCO in their Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune game series. Ever since version 2 came out (sometime mid-2004), she has already made the shift to NAMCO and that's when Tahirih Walker came in to fill in that spot.

Personally, I do like both female singers (although I slightly prefer Tahirih Walker more) but I feel that Paula Terry 'working' for NAMCO is a positive move as well. Since she is just performing her voice on BGM songs, her task may seem to be lighter.

Here is also a short interview of her and her experiences living in Japan.
