YUI began writing poems in ninth grade. At the age of 16, by recommendation of a friend, she began studying song, songwriting, and guitar at a private music school in her native Fukuoka. Aspiring to become professional, she carried her guitar around and sang at local places such as the seashore of Shingu and in the middle of the rice fields of Kaminofu.
In March 2003, at an audition hosted by Sony Music Japan, all judges evaluated her with the highest score, which caused a fierce scramble among labels. At this audition, she sang three songs - her first song "Why me", which was later coupled with her debut single, as well as "It's happy line" and "I know", which were included on her indie single - as opposed to the audition rule that a participant could only sing two songs. Sitting cross-legged on the floor, she strummed her guitar and sang. The judges and the others present claimed that "the performance created a tremendous aura from her heavenly voice, and captured the hearts of the whole audience".
Upon leaving her home of Fukuoka for Tokyo, YUI wrote the song "feel my soul". She was planning release on an indie label as a tribute to her hometown, when the song caught the ears of Fuji TV producer, Mr. Yamaguchi, who happened to see the demo video clip. He claimed YUI's voice haunted him so much that he went out of his way to visit the recording studio himself. He even made his channel's prime-time drama an extraordinary tie-in with YUI's debut track.
Although she is not the most comfortable when it comes to talking to people, she enjoys communicating with her audience at street performances in the Tenjin district of Fukuoka.
Her fifth single is "Good-bye days", which was also the theme for the film "Taiyou no Uta" ("Midnight Sun"). YUI took a role of a leading actress herself. The artist usually listed as singing "Good-bye days" is YUI for 雨音薫 (YUI for Kaoru Amane).
YUI's seventh single, "Rolling star", is the fifth opening theme of BLEACH. Selling almost 150,000 copies, it is YUI's second highest selling single to date (first being "Good-bye days" with over 200,000 copies.)
After taking a five-month long hiatus beginning in late August 2008, YUI celebrated her return by releasing the single "Again" which was chosen as the first theme song for Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. Instantaneously successful, the song had the highest opening week sales for a female act in 2009, selling over 110,000 copies.

甘い雨が降り注ぐように
ハートの中に
いつも happy happy rice shower
鏡にうつるサイテーな顔
バタバタしてるうちに
笑顔も忘れてたよ
帰り道みつけた 仔犬とじゃれたら
シャンプーでもしよう
ちからをほどいてみた
そらさず自分をみた
大事なこと たくさんあった
どんなに ささやかな
しあわせでも 降り積もったら
夢に届くよ
それが happy happy rice shower
ギンガムのキャミソール
ほめられたりね
3時のお茶とチョコでも
しあわせにもなれるし
当たり前ほど 気づかないけれど
きらめく宝物は 毎日にあふれてる
「ありがとう」 いつも言えない
だけどね「感謝してる」
ささえてくれてる仲間たち
だからね みんなにも
しあわせがね
降り注ぐようにように
魔法をかける
きっと happy happy rice shower
意地っ張りな私でもいい?
いつもね チャペルには
甘い雨が降り注ぐように
ハートの中に
積もれ happy happy rice shower
AH きみのもと しあわせがね
降り注ぐように
魔法をかける
ずっと happy happy rice shower
The song "Happy Happy Rice Shower" by Yui Horie from Love Hina is a joyful and uplifting tune that celebrates the simple things that make life wonderful. The lyrics express the idea that even the most mundane moments of life can be transformed into instances of happiness and magic. The song begins by describing a sweet and refreshing rain falling inside the chapel, a metaphor for the happy feelings that always rain inside of one's heart. The chorus repeats the phrase "happy happy rice shower" to emphasize the idea that happiness is all around us and can be found in even the smallest things.
Throughout the song, Horie references a series of small, everyday moments that make her happy, such as playing with a puppy or wearing a cute outfit. She also expresses gratitude for the people in her life who support and love her, encouraging listeners to be thankful for the people in their own lives. The song ends on a note of hope, with Horie singing, "May happiness rain down on you," promising that the happy moments in life will never cease to fall.

I kinda agree with judges. It's actually because she is so good, the performance feels too short. I want more...her only lacking is the performance is too short. I want to see more but it ends too soon...but simply because she's so good.
