Just by you being herekome kome CLUB
Just having someone you love can change so many things; it makes your doubts disappear—that’s how this song makes me feel.
Tatsuya Ishii’s voice at the beginning is fantastic.
Even someone like him tells us that love can be scary, so it means we’ve got to do our best.

It’s a breakup song from a man’s perspective, and it feels like he’s still hung up on her.
As time has passed, he feels like the person he is now could have been the ideal partner for her—that part really resonated with me.
He believes he could make her happy now, but since that’s no longer possible, at the very least he hopes that when they meet again someday, they’ll both have become each other’s ideal.
solitude -A True Farewell-KinKi Kids
This is a song by KinKi Kids from the early 2000s.
It’s about the lingering heartache of unrequited love even after a breakup.
The lyrics are deeply moving.
They feel quite truthful, and I imagine many people can relate.
TouchIwasaki Yoshimi
A big hit song from the Showa-era anime! Even those born in the Heisei era probably know it, don’t they? It’s famous as the theme song for the anime adaptation of the baseball and romance manga “Touch,” and its cool guitar solo—perfect for baseball scenes—paired with the cute lyrics gives you the courage to go after love.
I BELIVEKahara Tomomi
Continuing to have unwavering feelings for someone may seem simple, but it can be painful and even agonizing.
These lyrics capture the bittersweet emotions of a woman.
There are times when you want to lean on someone, and times when you feel like screaming out your pain.
You can really feel the sorrow of unrequited love.
