Songs of forbidden love: love songs about unstoppable feelings (91–100)
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…
DearNishino Kana
Kana Nishino, who enjoys immense support from young women, seems to be winning over a slightly older audience with this song as well.
In the lyrics, you can vividly imagine the bittersweet scene of two people spending time in a love that cannot come true, within the limits of the time they have.

The lyrics, written from a woman’s perspective, portray the feelings of a woman who falls for someone she shouldn’t.
You can sense her trying not to fall in love too deeply.
It also gives the impression that she feels guilty about this romance.
Pure Love RhapsodyTakeuchi Mariya
From the title, it gives off a stylish vibe that doesn’t immediately suggest adultery or cheating.
I think it conveys the feelings of someone ordinary who has fallen in love with a married man and carries that heartbreak.
You can understand the emotions of overthinking everything precisely because you’re in love.
short-sleevedImai Miki
Anyone who is having an affair will understand all too well the pain of seeing the everyday life, the home, and the family of the person they’ve fallen in love with.
The words, “You’re not someone I mustn’t love—you’re someone who will never love me,” are unbearably heartbreaking.
Stop this nightJUJU
It’s a hit song that was used as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Guilty: The Woman Who Made a Deal with the Devil.” It’s a bittersweet track about a forbidden love—where, despite telling yourself you shouldn’t fall for someone, your feelings only grow stronger, and you can’t picture a happy future together.
Wanting to escape the pain, you find yourself wishing the moments you can meet would last forever.
Hold me…Matsuda Seiko
This is a song included on Seiko Matsuda’s album released in 1988.
It’s a very poignant piece about the conflict of trying to part with a forbidden or unattainable love—no matter how strongly you resolve to let go, when you meet the person you still have feelings for, your love for them returns.
