To you.haji→
An impassioned and beautiful love song by Haji→, who is active in many fields including as a YouTuber, TikToker, and manager of a music café-bar.
“Omae ni,” a handmade video of which became a hot topic, is a song that straightforwardly expresses gratitude for human bonds and fateful encounters, carrying the message that “age differences don’t matter in love.” With a mellow, reggae-tinged vibe, it’s a track that leaves a warm feeling in your heart—please listen while reminiscing about the happy times spent with someone special.
My favorite seniorMōningu Musume.
A slightly heart-throbbing title: “The Senior I Like.” This song is included on Morning Musume’s fourth album, 4th Ikimasshoi!, released in 2002.
It’s sung by the 5th generation members who joined in 2001: Ai Takahashi, Asami Konno, Makoto Ogawa, and Risa Niigaki.
It’s also a track that follows the tradition of being performed by the group’s newly joined members.
A cute number packed with all the feelings of adolescence.

Theme of LoveMōmō Rurugyaban
MOW MOW LULU GYABAN is a Japanese three-piece punk band.
Their song “Ai no Theme” is captivating for its straightforward lyrics about falling in love with a woman 12 years younger.
The track combines simple guitar chords with a driving two-beat drum pattern—“don-tan, dodo-tan”—that leaves you feeling exhilarated.
It’s also fun that it features keyboards, which are unusual in punk songs.
If you find yourself in love with someone younger, this is the song to lift your spirits!
the fourth lightNogizaka 46
It’s a song about entering high school inspired by a senior you admire and, amid all kinds of inner conflicts, reaching for light and dreams in student life.
It offers encouraging words like “It’s okay to be yourself” and “Forge ahead on your own path.” The transparent, clear vocals really stand out above the rest.
It’s a track you’ll want to listen to while feeling the wind.
Yubeshi-senpaiShibata Satoko
A high-quality number by Satoko Shibata, who continues to charge ahead as a guitar girl.
Is the “yubeshi” in “Yubeshi Senpai” a proper noun? Is it someone’s name? The song is solely about the “Yubeshi Senpai” of her memories—like saying, “You might have forgotten, Senpai, but I remember you, Yubeshi Senpai.” There’s a bit of mystery to it, but it’s a straightforward track that expresses her feelings for Senpai without any games.
Love Me CrazyMirei Touyama
No matter what people around you say, if you want to stick to your love for an older or younger partner, I recommend Mirei Toyama’s “Love Me Crazy.” It’s included on her 2016 album “My Way.” The song conveys the idea that couples around the world live in completely different ways, and if the two people are happy, it’s wrong for others to interfere in their relationship.
If you’re struggling with an age gap with your partner or receiving criticism from those around you, stay strong and keep loving your partner just like in this song!
