Omfg I can't believe she doesn't have a topic yet! Argh.

Well, here's a little background on Yuna:

She was raised in Hawaii (I think her family moved there, though), and she's bilingual. Her family ran a restaurant... She used to sing to Mariah Carry songs... Made great test scores so her mother disapproved over her going into a musical career...

Her songs are very reminiscent of American pop, especially Stay for Love and Losin'. But usually she has pretty generic ballads.

Her singles so far include:
ENDLESS STORY
Faith/Pureyes
Precious
stuck on you
losin'
Truth

She only has one album out, and that's HEART (which probably every J-pop artist (except Hikki) has an album named HEART or something that has HEART in the title).

Interestingly (and disappointingly), only her A-sides appeared on HEART. I was saddened deeply because one of my favorite songs of hers (JOURNEY) didn't appear on it. :(

As for her voice, she isn't a total extreme like Ayu or Hikki (either having a high-pitched voice or a low-pitched voice), and she's kind of like BoA. Only better at holding out notes and carrying a tune. (Don't get me wrong. I like BoA, but her voice usually doesn't do anything for me.) And she doesn't sound like Fergie like Koda Kumi does, either (which is a good thing). She has a very clear voice, you see. It's not raspy or anything.

The only real downside to Yuna is her poor sales, but it's probably related to her very bland personality... I swear, she hasn't really made herself stick out as 'shy' or not. She's just kind of there. Like a lump. A lump with a good voice.
