Sorry, this is just a random though that popped in my head.

I was going on the three strikes and your out theory.

[KarenPang]

that might be possible too , you never know

trust you was probably a make or break single for Yuna , you wouldn't know whether if it's true or not

Nice article from NINGIN.

AznAm and Jpop star Yuna Ito charts with “Trust You”

Big news for Asian American Jpop singer Yuna Ito this week — her new single “Trust You” was released on March 4 and has charted Top 5 on the Oricon charts in Japan! “Trust You” was picked as the ending theme song for anime Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Second Season. (Yes, Mobile Suit Gundam is still alive and kicking!)

I’ve personally got the second track “Brand New World” on heavy rotation. It’s a fantastic pop energy trance track that works great on the dancefloor or a karoke car ride down the interstate. Check out the preview below!

You might know Yuna Ito from her role in the movies NANA and NANA2, adapted from the popular manga series of the same name. She played fictional singer Reira in band Trapnest. In NANA, Reira was a beautiful and talented singer that was bilingual, or in other words, Yuna Ito is the real life Reira. “Endless Story” from NANA topped the charts and made Yuna Ito a star.

What you probably don’t know is that Yuna is another “Asian American in Disguise”. Yuna was born in LA and raised in Hawaii with parents of Japanese and Korean heritage. (Yuna=Euna, 由奈=유나)

Like many American-born Asian artists, Yuna was ready for stardom before America was ready for her. She’s part of a growing lineup of Asian American (and Canadian) artists like Wang Lee-Hom, Clazziquai, Joe Inoue, and Utada that hopefully can come home one day.

4>17>20?>15>13

Top 10 here she comes. Again. Hope when April 8th comes, since there seems to be no strong competitors (expect Tohoshinki), she can get #1 like that woman with Ai no Mama de...

Who here thinks that Yuna needs to have MARKIE as her designated writer/composer? Although MARKIE only wrote /compose two songs for Yuna, "Mafuyu no Seiza" and "trust you" the songs are EPIC. I can imagine the next song MARKIE writes for Yuna reaching #1 on the charts. If they don't release it with very strong competitors, i.e JE boys.

Also as I said in this thread many times, Yuna should also write some songs, even if she co-writes them. Anyone hear Secrets, a b-side from the Precious single that she co-wrote?

It's on Imeem, so you might need to log in/sign up.

i can't remember if i heard that song, so thanks for the imeem link! i'll take a listen.

A Capella version of trust you. Starts at 2:40. Not the whole think just the chorus. Sounds amazing.

Thanks for the link.
I prefer hearing the chorus with the beats.

That scene was amazing. I watched the episode 2 weeks ago and I thought the music placement was sad and it matched perfectly with the situation between the two lovers. Best dying scene from Gundam 00.
