This time, I’ve compiled a selection of songs by Japanese girl bands whose lyrics I’d like you to focus on.

They range from straightforward lyrics to ones that feel cleverly crafted.

The ultimate love song.

That’s exactly what it feels like.

A bittersweet melody with powerful vocals—there’s nothing more to ask for; it’s perfect.

And what really stands out is the lyrics that capture the feelings of unrequited love.

Listening to it makes your heart ache in the best way.

If you’re currently crushing on someone, you won’t regret giving it a listen.

It’ll definitely be a source of strength for your heart.

Hoshigaoka ParkHump Back

This is a song called “Hoshigaoka Park,” included on the release hanamuke from November 22, 2017.

Its straightforward rock sound is pleasant, and the piece seems to emit the faint glow of youth.

The gritty, almost rough-hewn lyrics—like something a man might have written—lend the song an even more nostalgic quality.

It’s the kind of track you’ll want to listen to quietly on a bench in a park at night.

Look, you’re smiling.SHISHAMO

This is SHISHAMO’s “Hora, Waratteru,” released on October 25, 2017.

It’s a piece marked by a gently soothing melody.

My immediate impression after listening was, “The lyrics are great.” They come straight at you—simple and direct—sinking right into your heart.

The tender words feel like they gradually lift away various worries and anxieties, and I just can’t get enough of them.

DROP DOLL is a three-piece girls’ band.

Their rock sound is full of emotion—really cool to listen to—and it also has a soaring sense of exhilaration.

They’re truly a badass girls’ band.

And their lyrics, filled with struggles and hopes for the future, really hit home.

Merci, rue.negoto

This is the song “Merci Lou,” included on the 1st full album “ex Negoto,” released on July 13, 2011.

Its completed melody and inventive worldview make it a work that seems capable of captivating all the senses.

Another point worth noting is the lyrics, which are both heartrending and forward-looking.

They gently, softly speak to a weary heart.
