("Tanti auguri Cristina D'Avena" ) 〕 She sings for television and animation series, and has recorded numerous albums, selling nearly 7 million copies.〔Giordano, Paolo (January 21, 2010). ("Ho rifiutato reality per dieci anni. Torno da matricola" ). ''Il Giornale'' 〕 D'Avena is well known in Italy for performing theme songs to hundreds of Italian dubs of Japanese and American animated TV series. In all, she has sung nearly 700 songs, including theme songs for ''Sailor Moon'', ''Kimagure Orange Road'', ''Ai Shite Knight'', ''Marmalade Boy'', ''Ace o Nerae!'', ''Touch'', ''Pokémon'', ''Attack No. 1'', ''One Piece'', ''Candy Candy'', ''La Seine no Hoshi'', ''Magic Knight Rayearth'', ''Dr. Slump'', ''Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water'', ''Himitsu no Akko-chan'', ''Little Women'', ''Wedding Peach'', ''Attacker You!'', ''Glass Mask'', ''Cardcaptor Sakura'' and ''Rose of Versailles''. Cristina also has recorded songs for other television programs. The dubbed Italian songs she sings are not covers of the Japanese songs but newly written songs for the Italian dub of the anime. For the Italian dub of ''Mahou no Tenshi Creamy Mami'', D'Avena, in addition to performing the theme songs, also dubbed the singing voices of both Creamy Mami and her rival Megumi Ayase. D'Avena has also performed themes for live-action TV series and for Western cartoon series such as ''Batman: The Animated Series'', ''Count Duckula'', ''The Mask'', ''My Little Pony and Friends'', ''The Smurfs'', ''The Snorks'', ''Totally Spies'' and ''Jem''. In addition to performing the theme songs, she also played Licia (Yakko-chan), the female lead of the anime ''Ai Shite Knight'' (known in Italy as ''Kiss Me Licia''), in 4 live-action TV drama sequels to the anime (''Love me Licia'', ''Licia, dolce Licia'', ''Teneramente Licia'', ''Balliamo e cantiamo con Licia'') which were made in Italy in response to the popularity of the anime there. In December 2009 she released her ''Magia di Natale'' album, which includes 12 traditional Christmas songs, all arranged by Valeriano Chiaravalle. In this album she has sung in the English language for the first time. This album also includes a cover version of "Childhood", a Michael Jackson song in which she pays homage to the late singer. She will voice a character in the Italian dub of ''Over the Garden Wall''. == Discography singles == *1981 * * ''Bambino Pinocchio ''/ Instrumental *1982 * * ''Laura ''/ ''Mon Ciccì'' * * ''Ghimbirighimbi'' * * ''Mon Ciccì ''/ Instrumental (promotional single) *1983 * * ''Lucy ''/ ''La regina dei mille anni'' * * ''John e Solfami ''/ ''La scuola dei Puffi'' * * ''New Five Time ''/ ''Vola Bambino '' * * ''La canzone dei puffi'' *1984 * * ''I ragazzi della Senna (Il Tulipano Nero) ''/ ''Space Runner'' * * ''Là sui monti con Annette ''/ ''Bum Bum'' * * ''Puffi la la la ''/ ''A E I O U'' * * ''Georgie ''/ Instrumental * * ''Nanà Supergirl ''/ ''Pollon, Pollon combinaguai'' *1985 * * ''L'incantevole Creamy ''/ ''Ciao Ciao'' * * ''Il grande sogno di Maya''/ ''Rascal – Il mio amico orsetto'' * * ''Evelyn e la magia di un sogno d'amore ''/ ''Nuovi amici a Ciao Ciao'' * * ''Kiss me Licia ''/ ''Che avventure a Bim Bum Bam con il nostro amico Uan'' * * ''Le avventure della dolce Katy ''/ ''Lo strano mondo di Minù'' * * ''Occhi di gatto''/ Instrumental * * ''Che bello essere un Puffo ''/ ''Notte Puff'' * * ''Arrivano gli Snorky ''/ ''Ciao siamo gli Snorky'' * * ''Kiss me Licia ''/ ''Instrumental (promotional single)'' *1986 * * ''Memole dolce Memole ''/ Instrumental * * ''Mila e Shiro due cuori nella pallavolo''/ ''Lovely Sara'' * * ''Magica, magica Emi ''/ ''Holly e Benji due fuoriclasse'' * * ''Love me Licia ''/ ''Il mago di Oz'' * * ''Noi Snorky Incontrerai ''/ ''Sempre sognerai'' * * ''David Gnomo amico mio ''/ ''Dai vieni qui David'' * * ''Puffa di qua, puffa di là ''/ ''Buon compleanno Grande Puffo'' * * ''Alla scoperta di Babbo Natale ''/ ''Ninna nanna di Brahms'' *1987 * * ''Vola mio mini pony ''/ Instrumental * * ''Sandy dai mille colori ''/ ''Lupin, l'incorreggibile Lupin'' * * ''Licia dolce Licia ''/ ''Juny peperina inventatutto'' * * ''Pollyanna ''/ Instrumental * * ''Alice nel paese delle meraviglie ''/ Instrumental * * ''Jem ''/ ''Gli Amici Cercafamiglia'' * * ''Piccola bianca Sibert ''/ ''Sibert'' * * ''Teneramente Licia ''/ ''Quando arrivi tu'' * * ''Maple Town: un nido di simpatia ''/ ''Patty e Bobby (Chi trova un vero amico)'' * * ''Ogni Puffo pufferà ''/ ''Madre Natura'' * * ''Princesse Sarah ''/ Instrumental *1988 * * ''Hilary ''/ ''Denny'' * * ''Che famiglia è questa Family!
