Unrequited love song by a girls' band

My letterZONE

ZONE – My Letter (MV)

A classic by the girls’ band ZONE that captures the frustrating feeling of a crush when you just can’t say “I like you” out loud.

The gentle tone of the acoustic guitar layered with shimmering strings creates a bittersweet yet beautiful sound.

The highlights are the vocal relay that showcases each member’s individuality and their interweaving harmonies.

The pure emotions, expressed in down-to-earth words, sink quietly into the listener’s heart.

Released in October 2003 and included on the album “N,” this song also became familiar as the ending theme of the popular music program “HEY! HEY! HEY! MUSIC CHAMP.” If you’re struggling to convey your feelings to someone important, its delicate melody will tenderly stay by your side—and it just might give you a gentle push forward.

They’re a girls’ band of current high schoolers with youthful, cute looks and voices.

But contrary to that, they really rock pretty hard.

The lyrics feel true to life and just right—very teenage.

The rhythm section locks in with a really cool groove, too.

Looks like we can expect great things from them going forward!

BAND JA NAI MON! – Chocolat Love

It’s such a catchy track that you’ll find yourself getting into it and shouting along with “Glasses moe! Lab coat moe!” The word “moe” has been mainstream for quite a while now, but the way it’s casually and naturally woven into the lyrics shows the sensibilities of girls today.

Potari 'JUST' MV full ver. (Released May 14, 2014)

A slightly distorted guitar delivers a crunchy, satisfying rock number.

With its bright, explosive vibe, you might not notice it at first, but if you really listen to the lyrics, you start thinking, “What a terrible guy… I feel so bad for the protagonist…”

Bands—especially all-female ones—tend to draw visual attention to the singer-guitarist or lead guitarist, but in terms of sound, isn’t this a band where the rhythm section does a remarkably good job? The feelings of a girl who’s grown timid, thinking, “I want this to happen, but I don’t know if it will—maybe it’s better if we just stay friends…,” suit them perfectly for the time when they were still active.

FINLANDS - Before Love (Music Video)

The slightly raspy voice and the way the vocals are almost spat out are irresistibly cool and satisfying.

It conveys a sense of one-sided love and emptiness.

I can’t tell whether they’ve fallen for a host or been duped by a con artist, but it’s a truly sad love song.

K-On! Fuwa Fuwa Time [with lyrics]

A song by the in-story band from the anime K-ON!, which aired in 2009 and enjoyed immense popularity.

Among the many tracks, it ranks among the most popular.

Since the protagonist is a high school girl, the lyrics stand out for their cute word choices, written from the perspective of a young girl.
