A bouquet of flowers with loveSuperfly
One of Superfly’s signature songs, “Ai wo Komete Hanataba wo” (With Love, a Bouquet).
Released in 2008 as Superfly’s fourth single, it served as a drama’s theme song and a variety show’s ending theme, and today it’s become a staple for graduations and for expressing gratitude.
It’s a number that gently reaches anyone’s heart, regardless of gender or age.
Even when we talk about “girl power,” there are many kinds.
We all want to be women who can approach others with a big, loving heart, don’t we?
ROSEHANA
An uplifting, high-energy tune recommended for when you want the strength to bounce back from adversity.
It’s the debut single by HANA, formed through the audition program “No No Girls,” released digitally in April 2025.
Beneath their sweet appearance lies explosive passion, and their bold stance of turning even scars into beauty will set listeners’ hearts ablaze.
They also achieved the remarkable feat of debuting at No.

AitaiKato Miria
Among Miliyah Kato’s songs, the track “Aitai” is especially popular.
It’s the lead song from her fourth album, “Ring,” released in 2009, and appears as the second track.
It was also featured as an insert song in the film “Akunin” (Villain).
The theme of the song is an unattainable love: even knowing that the guy you like already has someone important to him, you still can’t stop your feelings.
It’s a song that anyone in the same situation can’t help but relate to.
KIRA KIRAEvery Little Thing
KIRA KIRA by Every Little Thing was the theme song for one of the three-part Pretty Cure films released in 2015, The Treasure of Pumpkin Kingdom.
As the title suggests, many women have probably longed for “sparkly things” since they were little—whether that means toys, or something intangible that you can’t see.
This song is packed with that childhood sparkle we’ve always admired, and it’s a track that lifts the spirits of girls and women alike, from kids to adults.
miracleShenelu
Wanting to feel gentle and to become someone who can be gentle is also an essential element of feminine charm, isn’t it? This song, Che’Nelle’s “Kiseki” (Miracle), is a soothing, calm track that fills you with a gentle feeling.
It was also the theme song for the film “Tonight, at the Romance Theater.” Overflowing with kindness and love for someone precious and dear, its lyrics resonate deeply.
It’s a song that makes you realize when you’ve been lacking kindness toward others and inspires you to be a more openhearted person.
Shape of LoveMISIA feat.HIDE GReeeeN
One of MISIA’s signature songs, “Ai no Katachi.” This track became a hot topic as a tearjerker, serving as the theme song for the hit drama “Gibo to Musume no Blues.” It’s also a collaboration with HIDE from GReeeeN.
Tied closely to the drama’s storyline, the song weaves in many forms of love—between lovers, spouses, parents and children, and family—making it a deeply moving love song in the broadest sense.
It’s the perfect song for moments when you want to boost your feminine power and feel inspired to care for and love someone this way.

The heartfelt emotion and the feeling of “I love you” come through so poignantly that it becomes a tear-jerking ballad.
How about listening to it while thinking of someone you love?
