Named "Bilingual girl back from Hawaii" due to her ability to speak very fluent English because of her background, Hayami was instantly recognised and touted as one of the best newcomers to watch out for.
The single became Hayami's first big hit, making it to the top 10 of the Oricon Chart, winning countless awards.
In 1985, in order to shed off her "teen idol" image, Hayami began releasing euro beat dance music, and was well received.
In the early 1990s, when her pop music career began to decline, Hayami shifted her focus to become an actress and TV and radio presenter.
Being able to speak fluent English, Hayami's hosted programs were all catered to English-speaking education materials and were all very popular.
Hayami has continued her successful presenter's work, and can still be regularly seen on entertainment variety programs singing her signature songs from the early stage of her idol career.
