Apology Song. Make-up Song (51–60)
Sorry, darling.Iwasaki Yoshimi
It’s come full circle and connects with today’s city pop boom, so I can’t help but hope young people now will give it a listen.
The slightly dance-like parts are plenty upbeat and easy to enjoy.
The song portrays a cute woman, but it gives a relatively light impression, and I even get the sense that the “darling” isn’t all that angry to begin with.
Golden MoonSuga Shikao
I can’t get enough of Shikao Suga’s husky, languid singing style.
Since things don’t usually go as smoothly as a fairy tale, J-pop can sometimes sound like pretty words to me.
But Suga’s songs give me this strange feeling that even if you’re not a perfect person, it’s still okay.
Love me, Love youMrs. GREEN APPLE
A pop tune by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE that portrays the many forms of love found around the world, set to a bright, upbeat melody.
With the feel of a musical-style show, it reminds us that all kinds of love— from the everyday life of lovers to family bonds and friendships—shine all around us.
Released in February 2018 and included on the album ENSEMBLE, the song was later chosen as the theme for the drama Onzoshi Boys starring Yuna Taira.
Even if you’ve had a fight with your partner, listening to this track will help you remember the warmth of love and face each other with honesty.
It’s a recommended song for anyone who wants to cherish their encounter with their partner and build a better relationship.
seesawtuki.
This is a delicate and expressive song by tuki., likening the subtle distance and emotional nuances between lovers to a seesaw.
It depicts the frustrating scenes of love where, when you try to get closer to the one you care about, they drift away, and when you keep your distance, they come closer.
Everyone can relate to the repeated ups and downs as their feelings fail to align.
Included on the album “15,” this track appears alongside “Moon Landing Project,” which was featured in a Suzuki Solio Bandit commercial.
It’s a recommended song for those troubled by missed connections with a partner or uncertain about how close to be.
Reconciliation Cream Puff＝LOVE
A song by =LOVE that portrays the aftermath of a lovers’ quarrel—wracked by regret, reflection, and self-reproach, and weighed down by anxiety.
Set to a melodious pop tune, it captures the wavering between “Is it their fault? Is it mine?” and a heartfelt wish to make up.
Released on July 31, 2024 as a coupling track to the single “Zettai Idol Yamenai de,” the lyrics were written by producer Rino Sashihara, with Hitomi Takamatsu and Iori Noguchi serving as double centers.
This sweet yet bittersweet story resonates with anyone struggling in a precious relationship where they can’t quite speak their true feelings to the one they love.
