YUI　『fight』

This is the 21st single by YUI, who made her major debut as a singer-songwriter in 2004 and has been active since 2013 as the vocalist and guitarist of the rock band FLOWER FLOWER.

Originally composed as a choral piece for the 2012 NHK All-Japan School Music Competition (junior high division) as the set piece, it was rearranged for her own vocals and became her final single as a solo artist.

While the song acknowledges that hard work doesn’t guarantee you’ll get everything you want, its message—that the experience of confronting something with all your might becomes a treasure—carries a gentle yet powerful encouragement to live without regrets.

It’s a track that gives you the courage to move toward your dreams and goals.

Let me introduce a song that refreshingly portrays a bittersweet spring romance.

Delicately expressing the feelings of unrequited love conveyed through cell phone emails, this track by YUI gently sings about the beginning of love—something everyone has experienced at least once.

With warmth, it depicts the protagonist, who isn’t good with emojis, having their heart skip a beat at messages from their crush and fretting over the back-and-forth of replies with pure sincerity.

Released in March 2007, the song resonated with many and was later included on the album “CAN’T BUY MY LOVE.” It was also used as the ending theme for the anime “ReLIFE: Final Arc.” It’s a perfect cheer song for those experiencing their first love in a new environment, or for anyone ready to take a new step forward with the arrival of spring.

Perfect for those who want to greet their entrance ceremony with a fresh feeling is “Laugh away.” It’s included on YUI’s 2008 release “I LOVED YESTERDAY” and was used in a commercial for “Watering Kissmint.” The acoustic sound and her beautiful vocals really resonate.

It’s a song that makes you want to hop on a bike as you get lost in its light, upbeat groove.

Everyone feels anxious about meeting people they’ve never met or going to places they’ve never been, but listening to this song gives you the courage to move lightly toward tomorrow.
