Let me peek into the depths of your eyes.Porunogurafiti
It’s a love song in Porno Graffitti’s signature Carmen style.
It truly sings of an ‘forbidden love,’ expressing the dangerous give-and-take of romance with beautiful words.
It’s like watching a novel or a movie, drawing you into the world of the two lovers.
Is the boyfriend older, perhaps? He seems to know every trick in the book when it comes to love.
The woman wants to probe his true feelings, but he absolutely refuses to reveal what’s in his heart.
sly personMioyamazaki
Mio Yamazaki captivates many women with songs that set raw, unfiltered lyrics about a woman’s heart to loud rock sounds.
It seems the protagonist of the lyrics has fallen for a man who already has a family.
Even though she knows it can never be a happy love, she can’t help liking him and wanting to see him.
The lyrics portray the pain of an affair and the anguish of being unable to escape.
Dear…Nishino Kana
This is a song by Kana Nishino that conveys the pain of bittersweet affection and unrequited love.
The melancholic piano sound evokes the feeling of softly murmuring one’s sorrow, and the expansive development of the music strikingly expresses emotions overflowing.
The lyrics, which capture the inner movements of the heart when burdened with feelings that won’t reach their destination or love that cannot be fulfilled, further emphasize the poignancy.
By also depicting the ideal of “what if these feelings had reached you,” the song renders the suffering even more vividly.
COMPLEX BLUE – Only Love Is Too SadTHE ALFEE
This sings of a woman’s sorrow after parting from the man she loves.
He has another partner, and their relationship is forbidden.
She understands that, but she can’t help loving him deeply.
The two love each other profoundly, yet they have no choice but to part.
It’s unbearably painful, but because it’s an affair and they can’t be together openly, she has to give up…
BibleOkamura Yasuyuki
It’s a slightly unusual song about the feelings of a male high school student whose female classmate is dating a 35-year-old married man.
He keeps saying, “I’d be better for you,” but she brushes him off with, “I can like whoever I want! It’s my business! Don’t be ridiculous!” Still, he can’t help thinking that being loved this much by someone else might be better than having an affair.
First LoveFukuyama Masaharu
The title is “Hatsukoi,” and there’s a reason for deliberately not writing it with the standard characters “初恋.” They’re two people who each have something to protect and a place to return to.
And yet, their feelings deepen.
The frustration of being unable to move forward and unable to go back is captured well.
Even without a physical relationship, living while truly loving someone else is still a form of infidelity, isn’t it?
