Nice to meet you. I’m Yuko S. I teach yoga, meditation, and Laughter Yoga Music. I offer Laughter Yoga Music because ensuring children’s psychological safety fosters the development of their brains and minds and helps them cultivate their talents. I have produced many Laughter Yoga Music recreation sessions that simply let people enjoy laughter, music, and dance—connecting India and Japan via Zoom for both children and adults. My track record includes regularly held Nerima Laughter Yoga classes, regularly held Kichijoji Laughter Yoga Music classes, and occasional Laughter Yoga Music events. I’m currently involved in various kinds of work, and as I began facing myself more deeply, I continued studying NLP—sometimes called an instruction manual for the brain and mind—as well as the deeper unconscious realms of the psyche; I now also work as a psychological therapist. I love music, too. Back in my student days, I was such a big fan of the band LÄ-PPISCH that I even joined their fan club. I was a total live-music girl, spending most of my part-time earnings on indie concert tickets, lol. I listen to music across genres, and since I’ve lived in India, I especially listen to a lot of Indian music.

That bittersweet “first love” that only happens once in a lifetime.

In this article, we’ve gathered songs that capture that very first love.

People often say “first love doesn’t last,” but how was it for you?

Some married their first love, some didn’t see it blossom, and some might be in the midst of their very first love right now, overwhelmed by feelings that only grow stronger.

Pure, straightforward, fleeting… emotions that make you blush to remember now.

But at the time, it was just a desperate, all-consuming first love.

In this article, we’ll introduce a wide range of songs—from those about being in the throes of first love to those that look back on it nostalgically.

Give them a listen.

Aya Matsuura – First Love

First loveMatsuura Aya

Ayaya from Hello! Project sings a full-on idol song about her first love at school—or so it seems, yet the calm melody also hints at her strong vocal prowess.

The synth sounds are woven in thoughtfully, as if staging a delicate page from youthful days.

It really feels like the work of the master producer Tsunku.

If you’re in love with your childhood friend—or once were—I recommend “First Love Supremacy.” I think a lot of people stay just friends because they don’t have the courage to confess.

If it’s a childhood friend or close friend, you especially don’t want to ruin the relationship.

This song empathizes with those bittersweet feelings, so give it a listen.

I’m sure it will lift your spirits and fill you with nostalgia.

This is Takako Uehara from SPEED’s solo debut single, produced by Ryuichi Kawamura.

Kawamura also did a self-cover, which is included on his album “Shin’ai ~only one~.” It’s a somewhat romantic song, gently rendered with a sweet voice, evoking a scene as if viewed from a seaside window.

To My First LoveSumairēji

This is a recommended song for those whose first love was someone out of reach, like an older person or a popular kid.

Sometimes your feelings grow so strong that your mind is filled with thoughts of the person you like, right? This song captures that girlish heart.

Even in unrequited love, if the other person shows any sign, you feel like you’re on cloud nine.

It’s a song that empathizes with those emotional ups and downs.
