Hanashima Publication made a book titled "Watching Light (ウォッチング ライト)"
It is a senior-high school English language teaching material.
And you might be asking how this is connected to YUI-sama???

WELL Chapter 3 of the teaching material is titled,

" シンガーソングライターのYUIさん" - "A Singer-Songwriter, YUI"

Yes, you read it right. Part of the book is about YUI. There's even a sample audio of YUI's part. and can be downloaded here.

shinji_tono - July 9, 2008 12:06 PM (GMT)
wow, omishiroi! sugoi ne! this really sounds interesting!

yeah Teo-san translated this part on ROCKIN'ON JAPAN interview May 2007 issue. but she haven't translated the part about the street musicians if I'm not mistaken. been waiting for the continuation actually. :what lol

so having been included in a Japanese educational material is a great achievement. imagine being used to educate people eh. good to know people will know more about her. even a little part of her life. kakkoi...

KaiserKawaii - July 10, 2008 04:41 AM (GMT)
my friend said that maybe the author of the book included YUI because she isn't that popular...

he kind of has a point, because sometimes in books we also find artists included but of whom we aren't really familiar with...

dunno... maybe, maybe not.

yupeh - July 10, 2008 05:20 AM (GMT)
^ Not really.
SMAP's songs are in some books and I have this one E-book that has Dreams Come True Song.

i knew she was hospitalized for something like 2 months dont really know why she was so sick though, think there is a bit in atheon-sans blog saying that she read the entire series of harry potter in hospital
