"Ōsaka No Onna" ("Woman From Ōsaka"), is Japanese pop singer, Hitomi Shimatani's debut single. It was released in 1999 and contains 4 songs.

Although the single, which followed the Enka style, received much critical acclaim and even won some awards, it sold rather poorly, causing either Shimatani, avex, or both to decide that "Ōsaka no onna" was to be both the beginning and the end of Shimatani's enka career, and to be her only 8 cm (3 inch) single. All her upcoming releases would follow instead a dance/pop style, and be released on 12 cm (5 inch) format.
