Yes, if you look on wikipedia
Nakajima Megumi: June 5, 1989
May'n: Oct 21, 1989

I heard some concert recordings of Megumi and May'n performing Lion during their Macross concert a couple months back, and let me tell you, in terms of depth, they are on the same level. Megumi's real voice is just as deep as May'n...I remember thinking "holy crap that's Megumi's real voice?" I think her singing has been limited because she's forced to play some silly green puppy/moe-blob

Let me see if I can find a link to this recording (it was on nicovideo)

Now here is the kicker... Megumi is older than May'n.

I need to find my jaw now
What an odd situation we have here!

Imo, i think both singers are very good especially since Megumi just started. She got a cute and soothing voice while May'n have a powerful and emotional one.

During some part of the medley, Megumi's voice shows a lot of improvement since we first heard her sang. Hopefully after MF, she would get more chance in her career. But I dont think her songs let her pour as much emotion into it as May'n.

May'n wise, well not much to say that has not been already said. She gotten a good number of very emotional songs and she delivers it beautifully.

It was released in the single "Seikan Hikou"/"Interstellar Flight" only, along with Ai, Oboete Imasu Ka-Deculture Edition and Neko Nikki. Watashi no Kare wa Pilot along with these two songs never reach both OSTs Track Listing.

Only Seikan Hikou that get listed in the OST 2 from the single.

[BetoJR]

Sooooooooooooooo... anyone care to translate the official lyrics to the OST2 songs?

[W-General]

I'd be interested in helping out, but how come there's no mention of Yousei? Has that already been translated?

[bkg9990]

I was wondering when they're gonna release the OST where bobby is in it xD

I second that

[SaintessHeart]

Watashi no Kare wa Pilot sounds like Watashi no Kare Wa PIRATE because of Engrish when I first heard it.

Anyway Nyan Tora Service Medley mix-list is as follows in sequence (the entire piece has all its fast songs at 1.5x speed, like Seikan Hikou, What 'bout my Star, Lion, etc).

1. Lion (opening)
2. Infinity (Ranka-Sheryl combo)
3. Watashi no Kare wa Pilot (2-3 lines only)
4. Shinkuu No Diamond Crevasse (Nyan Tora ver.)
5. Seikan Hikou (Ep 25 ver. edit)
6. What 'bout my star? (edited lyrics to suit love rivalry)
7. Lion (background What 'bout my Star? by Ranka)
8. Ai Oboete Imasuka (Ranka solo)
9. Lion (Sheryl solo part)
10. Lion (contrast vocals only)
11. Lion (contrast vocals by Ranka, Sheryl on lyrics)
12. Lion (synchronised tone, lyrics by Ranka and Sheryl)
13. Aimo (sounds as though it is sung by Grace....)

Anato No Oto is a really cute piece of song. And Aimo O.C is EPIC. Also Northern Cross's ending is different from Lion's album, as in it does not fade into the background, but rather it stops with a F# Major chord.

So I am not imagining things when I heard Northern Cross before!

[Tabris]

Really enjoying OST2.

I still wish we got an entire Diamond Crevasse in the OST. Like a full version of the mini duet in episode 3 or 4(?)

[Urei]

I, on the other hand, am a really big fan of Lion so it figures I would like to hear a full version of the one we got to hear in Nyan Nyan Service

[SaintessHeart]

You can get it from the album Lion.

If you mean the OP2 Single then there is no such version included in that CD
