Yes. The singing is only a small side-career, so it's not surprising "leave all behind" is at it's position. Plus we are only 3 weeks away from the album.

Nanako · #68 26th April 2008, 04:07 PM

leave all behind is a really great single. The b-side heartbeat is better than the a-side. I'm definitly buying the album^^

Yu is certainly famous & very popular, but mostly for being a model & an actress rather than for her music. She is not quite as huge celeb as her fellow model Yuri Ebihara but Yu's only 21yo and she can sing & act whereas Yuri is soon 30 and she cant do anything else. there was an article about this sometime ago on mainichi waiwai

"Leave all behind" is my favorite song by Yu, it's such a great mellow RnB number. I do like Heartbeat too, Yu's singles always have good content

I can't wait for her album

MYUSIC NINKI ranking:

09. Yamada Yu, "MYUSIC" - 13.70

#71 3rd May 2008, 04:10 PM

^Top Ten! Woot! I hope the predictions come true.

Nanako · #72 3rd May 2008, 04:21 PM

NINKI is usually off on their predictions. If MYUSIC made the top 20 I'd be really happy after the floptastic leave all behind.

BTW, leave all behind was #77 and sold only 1,318.

Beauty4123 · #73 3rd May 2008, 04:39 PM

such a bad position for leave all behind, but at least it was a good single.

Nanako · #74 4th May 2008, 03:17 PM

^Yeah that's the sad thing about it. But Yu's last few singles have been ranking pretty low anyways.

Yu Yamada, Shun Oguri dating?
Wed, May 7, 2008 (12:00am EDT)
Model and actress Yu Yamada is the latest celebrity rumored to be in a relationship with popular actor Shun Oguri. According to the scoop by the Sports Nippon newspaper, the pair started dating just a couple months ago after co-starring in the NTV drama series "Binbou Danshi."

Oguri was previously dating model Miho Tanaka, while Yamada was linked to actor Hideaki Ito. Both couples reportedly broke up around last summer. Oguri was later rumored to be in a relationship with Yu Kashii, but it was proven false after Kashii announced her engagement to Joe Odagiri in December.

Oguri and Yamada worked together in late 2007 for the Japanese dub of the computer-animated film "Surf's Up." But it wasn't until they played romantic interests in last season's "Binbou Danshi" that a real romance started. They apparently began dating in mid-March after filming ended. People close to the two say that it is a serious relationship.

The rumor has not yet been confirmed or denied by either side.

Oguri acknowledges relationship on live radio
Thu, May 8, 2008 (2:09am EDT)
On Wednesday night, Shun Oguri openly admitted during his live radio show on "All Night Nippon" that he is currently dating Yu Yamada. News of their relationship had surfaced just one day earlier.

While most popular young celebrities generally refrain from acknowledging their romances, Oguri proudly declared Yamada to be his "very precious girlfriend." He even mentioned that he was so excited to appear on the front page of a newspaper that he picked up ten copies.

Yamada's agency has also acknowledged that the two are seeing each other, and Yamada herself reportedly confirmed it as well. Oguri's management, on the other hand, opted not to comment.

OMG! It's true! He called her his "very precious girlfriend"!!!
I'd kill to have Hanazawa Rui call me that! Hopefully this'll be some good publicity for the album!
