CHE.R.RY

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.

Happy Birthday to you youYUI6rank/position

Yui – Happy Birthday to you you (live)

“Happy Birthday to you you” is a birthday song sung by YUI that lifts your spirits and even brings you to tears.

If you want to express gratitude to a beloved partner or close friend—things like “I’m so glad you’re here” and “Please let me stay by your side from now on”—this is the perfect song to send! It’s also ideal for surprising someone when they don’t expect to see you.

And it would definitely get everyone excited if you sang it together at karaoke!

SUMMER SONGYUI7rank/position

YUI　『Summer Song-short ver.-』

When it comes to songs I want to listen to with friends in the summer, this is it! “Summer Song” by YUI.

It was released in 2008, but it’s still loved as a timeless youth anthem.

The acoustic guitar in the intro gives off such a refreshing summer vibe—irresistible! It’s packed with summery phrases throughout, and it really lets you feel that excitement of “Ah, summer vacation is starting!” It’s the perfect track to play when you invite friends who’ve been working hard at club activities or studying to take a break and head to the beach together.
