A Little Love SongMONGOL800

A song by MONGOL800, a rock band from Okinawa affectionately known as “Monpachi,” whose straightforward lyrics and melodies reminiscent of youth punk gained widespread popularity.

Despite never being released as a single, it became known as one of Monpachi’s signature songs—so much so that a film based on the track was released in 2019, and it has been covered by numerous artists.

Its direct lyrics, carried by a driving arrangement and beautiful harmonies, convey feelings so honest they can only be spoken when love is mutual.

It’s a rock tune that blends passion with exhilaration—one we’d love high school couples, for whom romance is the top priority, to hear.

Mirei Toyama’s “Dear My Boo,” also well known as an answer song to Shota Shimizu’s hit number “My Boo.” “My Boo” is from a guy to his beloved girlfriend, while “Dear My Boo” conveys a woman’s feelings toward her boyfriend.

It’s a love song dedicated to the person who changed a negative self—someone who couldn’t truly love—from the bottom of her heart, a destined soulmate.

If you’re a high school girl blissfully in mutual love, you’ll surely find yourself thinking, “Is this about me?” as you listen to the lyrics.

LOVEMACO

MACO is a singer-songwriter who feels like a spokesperson for women in love.

Her song with the straightforward title “LOVE” was released in 2015 as her debut single.

True to its title, “LOVE” is a track packed to the brim with the feeling of being in love.

When you’re in love, it’s not all joy and fun—anxieties also come and go—but those shifting emotions feel very real and relatable.

A song by the five-member band Aqua Timez, who won popularity with powerful messages over a mixture sound and sadly disbanded in 2018.

It’s included on their debut mini-album “Sora Ippai ni Kanaderu Inori,” which, including its singles and the album itself, marks the band’s best-selling release.

The comfortable sound laid over a reggae beat lets you feel the band’s depth.

Rather than piling on cliché words, the lyrics advocate showing your feelings through actions—something that might give a gentle push to high school couples who feel shy and can’t quite say how they feel straight out.

It’s a heart-filling number that makes you feel the joy of mutual love and the bliss of spent-together time.

One Lovearashi

Arashi’s song “One Love” is a love song told from a male perspective, but it makes both men and women’s hearts flutter.

Released in 2008 as Arashi’s 22nd single, it’s also popular for being the theme song of the hit film Hana Yori Dango Final.

Loved across generations, it’s a love song that many high schoolers in mutual love would find themselves yearning for with its phrase “eternal love.” It’s a massive hit that vows—and has you vowing—such everlasting love.

Kissing You of ApologyE-girls

E-girls, who were active as the junior group to EXILE, unfortunately disbanded at the end of 2020.

Their song “Gomennasai no Kissing You” is their sixth single, released in 2013, and it’s a cute love song told from a girl’s perspective.

The girl is trying every which way to say sorry to her boyfriend, who got jealous of her male friend.

It’s a very heartwarming love song, but to the people involved it surely feels like a big deal right now.

It’s a charming track that captures a girl apologizing sweetly—as if she’s “being the one to give in.”

A bouquet of happinessMarushii

A warm song by Marcy that richly colors springtime love.

Its lyrics, which liken happy moments and memories spent with a loved one to a bouquet of flowers, are especially memorable.

Vocalist Ukyo Yoshida says the song reflects his wish that people cherish both the joy of receiving love from someone and the joy of giving it.

Released as a digital single in October 2022, it was also chosen as the theme song for a dating reality show.

If both you and your partner can keep asking yourselves, “Am I only receiving love? Am I truly giving it, too?” then a sad parting should never come.

This track reminds us that a caring heart is the most important key to building happiness together.
