YUI's famous and popular songs

Let me introduce some songs by YUI, a singer-songwriter who also performs as the vocalist and guitarist for the rock band FLOWER FLOWER.

Known for her remarkably powerful voice, she reportedly focused on street performances after dropping out of high school.

Her debut came through an audition held by the Sony Group.

Although the audition was supposed to consist of two songs, she apparently insisted on performing three.

As it turns out, the judges gave that third song the highest possible score.

It seems that her knack for rising to the occasion—and her strong will—are what underpin her talent.

YUI’s Famous and Popular Songs (11–20)

HELLO〜Paradise Kiss〜YUI

HELLO ~Paradise Kiss~ is a song written in 2011 as the theme for the film “Paradise Kiss.” The lyrics reflect the film’s world exactly as it is, and the music video has a charming pastel-colored finish.

This heart-thumping pop tune is a perfect fit for a girl in love.

This song, included on the fourth album HOLIDAYS IN THE SUN released in 2010, was also used as the theme song for the TV drama Natsu no Koi wa Nijiiro ni Kagayaku (Summer Love Shines in Rainbow Colors).

It expresses the feeling that love and dreams might come true someday if you don’t give up, but right now you can’t see that, and it’s heartbreaking.

It’s YUI’s debut single, released in 2005.

The song was used as the theme for the drama “Unfugitive Gene” (Fukigen na Gene), making for a dazzling debut with a tie-in right from her first release.

YUI was 17 at the time, and her vocals still carried a youthful innocence that left a strong impression.

As her first single, it also entered the Oricon charts, and remains a popular track.

The song captures the feelings of a girl sending emails, and it reminds me of when I first got a cell phone back in my school days.

Just like the cherry trees and forest imagery in the music video, I think it will bring a touch of elegance to the venue.

This song, which seems to revive those sweet-and-sour youth memories, is perfect for a video about how the two of you met.

A song included on “Good-bye days,” released as the fifth single in 2004.

It was also used as an insert song in the film “A Song to the Sun,” in which YUI played the lead role.

The track had previously appeared on the indie release “It’s happy line,” which came out before her major-label debut, making it a piece that can truly be called the origin of YUI.

Kiss meYUI

While pretending to be indifferent, it portrays a somewhat positive mindset that’s trying to somehow bring the current relationship to an end.

I think it’s the kind of song that would be good to listen to right after a breakup to let your feelings out.

If you’re feeling down in a similar situation, definitely give it a listen.

A song included on “again,” released in 2009 as YUI’s 13th single.

Composed while thinking of the sea in Shingu, Fukuoka—YUI’s hometown—the music video shows a charming YUI playing by the ocean.

It’s also a song about determination: moving forward even as you hold your precious things close to your heart.
