The Rolling Star! Never Say Die!

I love this girl very much!!!

YUI-san is my most favorite J-Pop female singer for all time! First time I heard her, I fell in love with her works day by day. Sounds so exaggerating but it's the truth ^^

The first time I noticed her was when I saw HINOKIO movie, which played by Hongo Kanata and Horikita Maki [they were soooo young back there!! ^^ ]. When I heard the ending theme song 'Tomorrow's Way', I couldn't help to humming it everyday and couldn't let it go out of my head. So I got so curious and browsed the song in the net, there I found that the singer's name is very simple, YUI. Since then, I became her fan ^^

When I knew that she played as Amane Kaoru in 'Taiyou no Uta' movie version, I browsed in every store to find it! Hahahaha... Well, my hard effort was paid off after I finally got it on my hand. Even though the movie was teary but I was satisfied to see her performance and of course, her songs. Her songs for the movie include 'Good Bye Days', 'It's a Happy Line' and 'Skyline'. To hear 'Good Bye Days' made my heart so blue, moreover after saw the last scene where Kaoru finally died and slept in a coffin with full of lilies. *cries* Anywhoo, it was a good movie complete with a good soundtracks.

Her songs also used for soundtracks or commercial very often. After heard her in HINOKIO, I heard her again in anime BLEACH, where her song 'Rolling Star' was used as the opening theme song and later on her other single 'Life' used again for the ending theme song. And later on, I realized that 'CHE.R.RY' was also used for KDDI au Listen Mobile Service commercial which aired often on TV. Then followed by 'Namidairo' as the ending theme for J-dorama '4 Shimai Tantei Dan' played by Uchiyama Rina, then 'Love and Truth' for Sawajiri Erika's movie called 'Closed Note'. One thing that I was surprised, her single 'My Generation' was used for an ending theme song of 'Seito Shokun!' which was also pairing Hongo Kanata and Horikita Maki once again after HINOKIO. So, we could all say that was the second time for Kanata-kun, Maki-chan and YUI-san collaboration. Or reunion? ^^ Oh yeah, also for Uchiyama Rina ne~ ^^

Well, when I heard that she was going to take a rest for a year, I was a bit sad because I won't hear anything new from her for a while. But suddenly, she came back faster with her new single 'Again', which was once again used for the opening theme song of Fullmetal Alchemist newest season! I listened to that song over and over again and my YUI-san's addict is getting more and more hype! ^O^

The latest news said that she will release her new double single 'It's All Too Much/Never Say Die' which is going to be used [AGAIN!] for an upcoming movie 'Kaiji', which was adapted from manga & anime, played by Fujiwara Tatsuya [Yagami Light-Death Note].

Well, I will definitely going to wait another surprises from YUI-san!
And can't wait to hear her sweet yearning voice along with her guitar play more in the future.

Mezase YUI-san!
