LOVE (I want to hold you)sawada kenji

Julie’s bittersweet, grown-up love song.
From the very beginning, you can tell he’s dying to hold his lover tight.
A cheating song told from a man’s perspective is unusual.
It seems the woman has a family, while the man is single.
Even though she loves him, there’s someone who loves her even more, and that makes him incredibly lonely.
Since it would be bad if her affair were exposed, the man ultimately decides to step back.
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…
Can’t Stop Fallin’ in Loveglobe

A forbidden love you can’t tell anyone about.
Even though you know you should stop, you can’t—it’s like a bottomless swamp, isn’t it? Here’s the perfect song for those who’ve sunk deep into it.
It’s “Can’t Stop Fallin’ in Love” by globe, one of the iconic groups from the Komuro Family that colored Japan’s ’90s.
The song portrays how a warped happiness that once belonged to two people eventually becomes something borne alone, leaving you tormented by emotions with nowhere to go.
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.
