Recommended love songs for college students: Japanese love songs you should listen to when a romance begins

May it be filled with kindnessJUJU

Flower “So That It Overflows With Kindness” [Movie “Evergreen Love (A Herb Book): I Picked Up a Fateful Love” Theme Song ver.]

It’s JUJU’s “Yasashisa de Afureru You ni.” This is the theme song version for the film “Evergreen Love (Shokubutsu Zukan: Unmei no Koi, Hiroimashita).” Even when we’re apart, we’re still by each other’s side.

It may sound contradictory, but I think that’s surely something important in love.

Please listen to JUJU’s singing—both beautiful and powerful.

wacci “Kirameki MV & Trailer”

This song really brings out the endearing side of a man’s approach to love.

In a good way, the vocals by Hashiguchi aren’t trying to be ridiculously cool; his down-to-earth voice and words are incredibly lovable.

The exciting intro is also captivating.

Love PhotosOtsuka Ai

Ai Otsuka / Love Photo (Short Ver.)

Although Ai Otsuka is often associated with a lively image, this song—which also became a massive hit as a movie theme—is a bittersweet love ballad for adults.

With the film set on a university campus and the protagonist being a college student, many listeners have likely found themselves overlaying their own experiences onto certain scenes while thinking of this song.

It’s a track you’ll want to listen to after a gentle rain.

Rikon Densetsu – Sequin Woman (Official Music Video)

It’s a track that city pop lovers won’t be able to resist.

Performed by Rikon Densetsu, formed in 2022, this song blends funky and sweet sounds into a comfortable number.

It sings of a precarious love: being captivated by someone dazzling, knowing you shouldn’t be drawn in, yet wishing “just for tonight.” Play it as BGM before heading out into the night with friends, and your everyday life might take on a slightly more dramatic hue.

DECO*27 – Love-struck Bug feat. Hatsune Miku

It’s the VOCALOID song ‘Ojama-mushi’ (Love Me, Love Me, Love Me).

The MV’s illustrations and melody are incredibly cute.

It portrays blunt, honest feelings and makes you realize that your emotions aren’t heavy—they’re natural.

It’s a song I’d recommend to people who have trouble being straightforward.

Simple lyrics and a simple melody.

That’s exactly why the powerful feelings stand out.

There are many English lyrics, but they’re very easy, so the meaning sinks in naturally as you listen.

It’s a sublime track that conveys such deep love you might even want to play it at a wedding.
