I can’t love anyone but you anymore.KinKi Kids

KinKi Kids Domoto Koichi, Domoto Tsuyoshi, “I Can’t Love Anyone But You”

It’s wonderful right from the title.

Words suited for weddings like “promise” and “forever” appear frequently in the lyrics, so I highly recommend it.

The lyrics are the kind you’d want your husband to say to you.

The chord progression is classic as well, so it would be great to try performing it as a cover.

Kiroro “To the Future” Music Video (Short ver.)

This is a song written by a daughter with her mother in mind.

During her adolescence and rebellious phase, she probably found everything her mother did—despite the good intentions—annoying at times.

Even so, this is a song that expresses gratitude to the mother who has loved her so much all along.

Mr. Big – To Be With You 4K Video

A sweet and gentle melody that touches the heart—this is one of Mr.

BIG’s signature songs.

The lyrics encourage a heartbroken woman and vow eternal love, making it perfect for a couple’s new beginning.

Released in November 1991, it became a massive hit, reaching number one in 15 countries worldwide.

It was inspired by Eric Martin’s high school romance.

Included on the album “Lean Into It,” the song played a major role in bringing the band’s name to the world.

It’s also popular as a surprise song from the groom to the bride or as background music for the first dance.

For a wedding wrapped in a warm atmosphere, where you pledge a happy future with the one you love, this song is a wonderful choice.

A heartfelt wedding ballad overflowing with warmth, lovingly crafted for a friend.

Novelbright’s vocalist Yudai Takenaka wove the lyrics with his wish to celebrate a dear friend’s marriage, gently portraying the everyday happiness shared with a loved one.

In October 2024, it was performed at the wedding of talent Shimon Okura and Miyu Ikeda, and that moving moment was captured in the music video.

Singing of the preciousness of time spent together and the depth of a supportive bond, this piece is perfect for anyone wanting to express their feelings to someone special.

It’s recommended not only for weddings, but also as everyday background music to share with the one you love.

There are also lyrics like: “Wherever you are, I always make you smile” [どこにいようともボクはいつでもキミを笑顔にするよ], “Wherever you are, I’m always by your side” [どこにいようともボクはキミのそばにいるから], “Whatever you say, I’ll accept everything you say” [キミの言うことならすべて], and “I promise you ‘forever’ right now” [ボクは今キミに永遠を約束するよ].

I often hear people say they’ve decided to play this song at their wedding.

I think the style of the song is perfect for weddings as well.
