Here's Yui with the beautiful song Tokyo.
Yui's full name is Yui Yoshioka. She dropped out of high school to study guitar and songwriting at a juku (cram school) in Fukuoka. Her career started when she sang at an audition hosted by Sony Music Japan after being recommended by the juku. The rule was that participants could only sing two songs, but the judges gave her the highest scores possible and she was asked to perform a third song. Several record labels scrambled to sign her.
Here she is, the incredible, wonderful, and beautiful Yui. Yui and her band have been rocking Asia like a musical typhoon. This young multitalented dynamo from Fukuoka began singing locally when she was only sixteen. At seventeen she released her first album on an indie label, and was discovered shortly thereafter. Her rise to fame has been meteoric and well deserved. She's a great singer and songwriter, as well as a guitarist and actress. She also plays the piano and drums.
And I just bet she's a great kisser. Mmmm... wha? Sorry, drifted off there for a second. Here's Yui with the kicking hit Rolling Star.
Yui also starred in the movie Midnight Sun.
