Sing along with Chiaki Kuriyama and her Gundam single "Meteor no Namida"

by Chris MaGee

It was back in January that we told you about how "Battle Royale" and "Kill Bill" star Chiaki Kuriyama was going to be stepping up to the mic to sing the theme song for the "Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn" OVA series. At that point we only new the title, "Ryuusei no Namida", a.k.a "Meteor no Namida", (a.k.a. "Tears of Falling Stars"), but as we originally reported the debut single from the 25-year-old actress was released this month, and here is the music video for it! Originally all we could track down was a YouTube video that just had the song and an image of the cover of the CD (above), but we think the video is a lot more compelling than looking at Kuriyama's air-brushed armpit for 5-minutes... even if the song itself is... shall we be kind and say... easy. Enjoy!
