This song delicately portrays the complex emotions of a woman in love.

The longing to turn back time and the desire to avoid regret resound with bittersweet poignancy.

A song by singer-songwriter erica, whose lyrics, written in straightforward words about the pain of heartbreak, stir the heart.

Many listeners will likely find courage in the lyrics that mourn the breakup honestly, acknowledge all the hurt and lingering feelings for the other person, and, with gratitude, resolve to move on to the next love.

Released in March 2016, this track is known as one of erica’s signature works.

Instead of thinking, “I’m useless for moping over a breakup,” perhaps, like this song, letting yourself cry and sink into the memories is what helps you move forward with a renewed spirit.

I miss you so much, I want to see you.

It’s a song that became a massive hit thanks to the strong resonance it found with women, and I think this is the track most people associate with Kana Nishino.

Her charm lies in her overall gentle vocals; she doesn’t belt the high notes but sings them in mixed voice, which lets the message of the lyrics flow in naturally and makes it very pleasant to listen to.

This song conveys the real feelings of a girl in love—maximum heartbreak—and it’s the kind of track that might bring you to tears.

It’s one you’ll want to sing with all your might when you want to pour your feelings out to the person you like.
