A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

If you’re a high school student, you probably go to karaoke quite a bit—after school events like sports festivals and culture festivals, or when you’re hanging out with friends on your days off.

Super Ball of Loveaiko

aiko - “Koi no Superball” music video

Super Ball of Loveaiko

This song, Love Super Ball, is popular among high school students who want to sing one of Aiko’s slightly more niche tracks.

It’s a relatively minor song in Aiko’s catalog, but the lyrics and melody still showcase her signature quality.

The rhythm bounces like a super ball, expressing the erratic ups and downs of feelings in love.

miwa 'Unrequited Love'

Unrequited lovemiwa

If you’re a high school student, there’s a good chance you’re in a relationship right now or have a crush on someone, right? For those in that situation, I highly recommend this song by miwa—its title says it all: “Kataomoi” (Unrequited Love).

Released in 2012, it’s miwa’s eighth single.

Although it’s called “unrequited love,” the theme centers on a love that’s difficult and likely unattainable, and many listeners will probably feel their hearts tighten as they listen.

It’s the perfect track for when you want to lean into that bittersweet mood or have a good cry.
