A rather unusual title, “I Like Your Face.” If you only heard that, you might think, “Huh?” But it also sounds like a very cute song that shyly conveys the feeling of liking you as a whole.
Thank you for the happiness.Ketsumeishi
This song is often used at weddings, but above all, it’s a warm track that lets you picture two people overflowing with love.
In true Ketsumeishi style, it’s packed with specific episodes that make your heart skip a beat.
Give it to a girlfriend who seems to have marriage on her mind.

Anyway, it’s such a cool song.
Surprisingly, the lyrics are straightforward, overflowing with the feeling of wanting to stay by your side and keep seeing your smile.
If you did a simple guitar-and-vocal performance and gave it to her as a gift, I think she’d be really happy.

Happy Birthday no matter how old you areyoshida takurou
A great recommendation for couples who have been married for a while is Takuro Yoshida’s “Happy Birthday No Matter How Old You Are.” Once children are born and life becomes centered around them, and being together starts to feel like a given, the opportunities to celebrate birthdays tend to dwindle.
Many people may even realize only afterward that their wife’s birthday has passed.
In times like that, try gifting this song—even if it’s late! It conveys your gratitude of “Thank you for these happy days.”
