me me sheRADWIMPS
A beautiful love song by RADWIMPS.
It’s a tear-jerking masterpiece packed with RADWIMPS’ signature style, and the title “me me she” is read as “memeshii” (meaning ‘effeminate’ or ‘spineless’ in Japanese).
Everyone, after a breakup, has those moments of thinking, “I don’t know how to bounce back or how to fall in love again,” don’t they? Toward the end of the lyrics, there’s a moving message that says, “Because of the time I spent with you, I’ve learned to love myself,” followed by a heartfelt thank-you.
If you can process this heartbreak within yourself the way this song does, maybe you’ll be able to move on to what’s next.
Sky of TearsGReeeeN
When you go through a heartbreak, you just want to cry your eyes out, don’t you? I think this song makes you feel like even those tears you shed have meaning.
Many of GReeeeN’s songs are the kind that make you feel positive just by listening to them.
calm (of the sea), lull; Nagi (a Japanese given name)Marushii
This is a heartwarming ballad by Marcy that gently embraces the loneliness after a breakup and the resolve to grow.
Vivid memories with a former lover—like the donuts eaten at a memorable station and a rainbow-colored umbrella—are painted in bright detail, while the quiet determination to face forward is expressed with striking subtlety.
Even amid complicated feelings toward an ex who has found new love, the song conveys the strength to become more mature oneself.
Included on the November 2023 album “Candle,” it was also featured as an insert song in ABEMA’s serial drama “High-Teen Diary.” A warm, encouraging tune that softly supports you as you try to move forward, even while carrying the pain of heartbreak.
Someone other than you ~tejina~DEEP
Listen to this song, have a good cry, and let it all out.
It’s a track by the male vocal group DEEP, released in 2011 as their sixth single.
The fragile vocals paired with the piano tones create a rich, immersive world.
You’ll likely find yourself wanting to keep it on repeat.
That said, the lyrics might really bring back memories of heartbreak.
All the more reason to listen, cry, and reset your feelings! It’s also great for karaoke.
Rebootmiwa
This song, Reboot, was also the theme for the hugely popular drama Nagi’s Long Vacation, so many of you have probably heard it.
Miwa usually sings cutely about the feelings of a girl in love, but this track has a slightly different vibe.
It’s refreshing—you can feel the decisiveness of a woman who’s had enough, is fed up with everything, and is ready to throw it all away.

They say women bounce back faster than men, so this song might be a perfect fit.
Cheer up!Takeuchi Mariya
Here’s another classic heartbreak song: Mariya Takeuchi’s “Genki wo Dashite.” It really makes you realize how much songs can encourage people.
It’s truly a wonderful piece.
While it’s a cheer-up song for a woman who’s gone through a breakup, its gentle, conversational tone makes it feel like an anthem that can lift up anyone.
It’s a song whose appeal never fades, no matter when you listen to it.
