Kaneyori Masaru is a three-piece girls’ band from Osaka.

Released in October 2023, this song vividly portrays the pain of heartbreak.

On a sleepless night, the narrator reads a manga and finds that the protagonist resembles their ex, and in that instant, all the memories come flooding back.

Those bittersweet moments are woven with delicate words.

Its easy-listening guitar rock sound is another draw.

It’s a breakup song that has resonated with many listeners.

“I’m going to turn our memories into a song, just as they are.” This is a song by Spreegal that sings of a slightly bold resolve.

Without romanticizing a broken heart, its lyrics candidly trace the scenes and emotions etched in the mind, stirring deep empathy in listeners.

The track is included on the EP “MEMORIES,” released in April 2024.

Anyone who has experienced an unforgettable love will likely be startled by how unflinchingly honest the words feel, as if they were written about themselves.

While carrying bittersweet memories, the song quietly stays by your side, supporting the part of you that still wants to move forward.

A love song playing from an earphone with the left side silent, the wavering feelings of a protagonist facing farewell at an evening station.

It’s rare to find a song that captures the bittersweetness residing in such small, everyday moments so vividly.

Written by Riko, the vocalist of Yayuyo, as the first song she ever composed, it was released as a single in December 2019 and was later included on the following year’s mini-album “Yayuyo.” After surpassing one million views on YouTube, this track quickly spread the band’s name far and wide.

While it sketches the premonition of parting over a buoyant rhythm, it also subtly reveals the protagonist’s strength as they try to look ahead.

With its driving guitar-rock energy and approachable melody, it’s a song I especially want those who are hurting from heartbreak yet determined to move forward to hear.

The five-member girls’ band BAND-MAID could now be called a metal band without exaggeration.

Razor-sharp, heavy guitar riffs; bass that shakes you to your core; powerhouse, hard-hitting drums; and vocals that blend cool swagger with a touch of wistfulness.

They’re a must-watch band whose popularity overseas is on the rise.

It’s a heartbreaking breakup song, sung with solid vocal power about the aching feeling of falling for a man who already has a girlfriend.

FINLANDS has released many other breakup songs as well.

Every track frankly voices the pains and stresses of love, so listening to them when you’re hurting from a breakup can feel truly unbearable.

Released in 2008 as the ninth single, it was used as the theme song for the drama “Tonsura.” It likens the fleeting nature of a cigarette’s ember eventually going out to the end of a romance, making it a poignant breakup song.

Since cigarette smoke is something you can’t grasp, it also conjures up scenes that can no longer be reclaimed.

Judy and Mary – Blue Tears

Although it was a love that ended without ever coming together, I still find myself dreaming about it and remembering it.

This song captures the common feelings of a girl in that situation.

The melody is bright, so singing it after a breakup can give you just a little boost.
