A bit surprised TOKYO is excluded I also would love to hear other old YUI songs re-recorded as she had so many other great ones , aside from the ones listed in NATURAL |
I love this idea, so excited to hear these FLOWER FLOWER makeovers! I like the covers a lot too.
|
My sister was and is still a die hard YUI fan and she was ecstatic when I told her about this
1 thing both of us agree is that YUI's voice after all these years still sound so youthful I'm curious to hear how much difference will the re-recorded songs will be as compared to the originals And this will be the 2nd time YUI has self covered CHE.R.RY |

Yeah, and YUI was like "oh you are a year late but oh well". It's very likely right and they are counting her official debut. |

https://www.youtube.com/user/yuiSMEJ/videos Time to rewatch & reminisce over the full PVs that YUI has made prior to FLOWER FLOWER x) And this's the only PV of YUI that I have not seen before until now Good-bye days -2012 ver.- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujJN3lobdSs Damn :O Back then in 2012 , I thought the only songs YUI made different PVs of were feel my soul , LIFE & TOKYO I didn't know about Good-bye days until now |

SUMMER SONG (YUI) (Inko no have a nice day Tour ー2020-Streaming Live-)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4RMKzxBMdE My sister's reaction in seeing this - ;___; The big vocal difference then & now is YUI now is able to reach the high notes in SUMMER SONG where in the past when this was released back in 2008 , she could not |
^she has kids now. pregnancy can change the voice (longterm or temporarily) - in many cases for the better
|
omg I saw they updated her picture on Spotify and ran in here for more info, I am SHOCKED! I'm so happy about this, I'm hopeful she's going to release new material as a solo artist again!

To celebrate NATURAL EP official release , the full PV of YUI's debut single feel my soul has been uploaded on YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MdbKAt06YQ Man listening to the re-recorded YUI songs from NATURAL EP make me want to re-listen to the selective songs YUI covered if not her entire discography The 1 I was a bit sceptical prior to hearing was the re-recorded version of GLORIA but I actually like it The newly re-recorded songs in NATURAL are a joy to listen & also very nostalgic especially for folks who used to support YUI prior to FLOWER FLOWER I personally like the new updated versions of feel my soul , Rolling star & Good-bye days Is it too much to ask for a NATURAL 2.0 cos 6 songs is not enough & there're so many other great YUI songs that should have been re-recorded such as LIFE , TOKYO , LOVE & TRUTH and even her indie debut it's happy line Even some of YUI's non singles , some of them deserved to get re-recorded too like Thank you My teens , Happy Birthday to you you , Jam , Laugh away & etc |
I love NATURAL! CHE.R.RY sounds better than the original for me. some of them are just alright, but I love the idea behind this release. I wish she would release NATURAL 2.0 like Karen mentioned, it would be really awesome! overall I think I give it a 8/10
|
The sound more mature and vocally more skilled. The arrangements are awesome. What they lack is the emotion of their time - this music was always very heartfelt for me, even when a bit rough (feel my soul) which also resonated with the audience.
Nontheless, I love NATURAL for its new sound m. |
@hud - have you heard CHE.R.RY ~Bossa Live Version~ before ? It's more different yet slower than both the original & NATURAL versions of the song
