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.

Released by YUI in 2007, “Happy Birthday To You You” is recommended for birthdays, as it conveys heartfelt gratitude—“thank you, always”—to loved ones close to you, such as partners, friends, and family.

YUI Happy Birthday to You with Lyrics
Happy Birthday to youYUI

It’s a lively, cheerful birthday song that’s very YUI-like.

It portrays a cute feeling of wanting to keep spending time with someone special.

Since the lyrics include a scene of giving a present, it seems like a song you could use for that moment too.

HELLOYUI

YUI 『HELLO-short ver.-』

This is a song famous for being the theme of the drama “Paradise Kiss,” starring Ai Yazawa.

The falsetto in the chorus conveys a poignant sorrow that grips deep in the heart.

In contrast to YUI’s cute voice, the song “Umbrella” conveys a love that’s almost frightening.

She keeps waiting for him, even though she knows he’s never coming back.

The heartbreakingly sad lyrics leave a strong impression.

YUI 『Muffler-short ver.-』

It was released in 2010 as the coupling track to YUI’s 15th single, “GLORIA.” Although it’s a B-side, it has its own music video.

The song carries a slightly bittersweet theme: noticing an unfamiliar scarf on a close friend—someone who might also have been a love interest—and feeling the passage of time through that small change.

A song released in 2011 as her 20th single.

It was the first piece YUI wrote after the Great East Japan Earthquake, and the title carries the meaning of “living within the earth.” YUI’s calm, heartfelt vocal delivery is particularly striking.

This is YUI’s sixth single, released in 2006, and it serves as an answer song to her previous track, “Good-bye days.” With its acoustic guitar resonating to create a wistful mood, the lyrics evoke scenes from the film Midnight Sun (Taiyō no Uta).

It’s a song you’ll want to enjoy alongside the movie and the previous single, “Good-bye days.”
