I love youNakajima Mika
Mika Nakashima’s sixth single, released in 2003, is “Aishiteru” (“I Love You”).
It’s a love song notable for its extremely direct lyrics and ranked fourth on the Oricon singles chart.
Nakashima sings the repeatedly used phrase “aishiteru” in various vocal tones, as if expressing inner fluctuations such as firm resolve and anxious feelings.
On an anniversary with your partner, why not skip the roundabout gestures and convey your feelings straightforwardly?
Sundayback number
A song that gently portrays a calm Sunday morning with a lover.
The voice waking a partner who sleeps almost until noon, the sweet wish to push back mealtime, days content with small happinesses.
More than grand dreams or ideals, the feeling that reexamines the joy of sharing this very moment together resonates deeply.
Released as a single by back number in May 2012, it was used as the theme song for Hokkaido Broadcasting (HBC)’s 60th anniversary commemorative drama “Soup Curry,” starring TEAM NACS, and was later included on the album “blues.” This warm track reminds us that the ordinary moments spent by two people are irreplaceable treasures.
AnniversaryUkasukaji
A love song filled with love and hope, perfect for celebrating an anniversary with someone special.
Featuring the beautifully soaring vocals of Kazutoshi Sakurai and GAKU-MC’s rap in superb harmony, the track is included on the album “T-shirt to Watashitachi,” released in July 2016.
It was also used as the commercial song for the fashion brand “niko and …,” drawing attention alongside a video starring Kentaro Sakaguchi and Shioli Kutsuna.
It’s a captivating song that will be a reliable companion when making anniversary memories or when you want to honestly express your feelings to someone important.
Together foreverKobukuro
This is a song by Kobukuro that was created to celebrate a loved one’s wedding.
It sings of the resolve to share both joys and hardships together from here on out—“I want us to share everything, the happy times and the tough times, just the two of us.” The lyrics, a little bashful yet filled with heartfelt words of gratitude and love, are enough to make your heart swell.
Released in October 2004, the song was also featured on NHK’s Minna no Uta.
It’s a warm, uplifting track that will make not only those preparing for a wedding, but also anyone who has spent many years with their partner, want to say “thank you, as always” once again.
Million FilmsKobukuro
A heartwarming love song that captures happy moments in everyday life.
It gently depicts scenes everyone has experienced at least once, such as city streets at dusk and lovers gazing at each other while waiting at a traffic light.
Since its release in October 2004, it has been featured as NTT West’s telegram image song and in a Calbee potato chips commercial, and in 2006 it was also used as the theme song for a TV Asahi drama.
It was included on the album ALL SINGLES BEST and has become one of Kobukuro’s signature songs.
A perfect track for wedding profile videos and commemorating special anniversaries.
Even those who find it hard to express their feelings to someone important may be able to convey them through this song.
bow knotAimer
We’re captivated by Aimer’s voice, which tugs at the heartstrings.
Her song “Chouchou Musubi” is her 11th single, released in 2016, produced by RADWIMPS’ Yojiro Noda, who also joined on chorus.
Aimer’s vocals combined with Noda’s lyrics create something profoundly moving.
The “butterfly knot” you tie when lacing shoes is used as a metaphor for balance and bonds between people, and it’s striking how well that applies to human relationships—you can’t help but listen closely.
It’s a song that reminds us to reexamine care and balance, even with someone you’ve been with for many years.
Imperial Regent Declarationsadamasashi
Masashi Sada’s song “Kanpaku Sengen” (The Lord’s Declaration), released in 1979, is one of his signature hits and became a hugely popular staple at weddings.
In 1994, he released “Kanpaku Shikkaku” (The Lord’s Downfall) as an answer song to “Kanpaku Sengen,” depicting the sad fate of a husband who couldn’t keep up with the times.
Men over 60 may find these songs nostalgic, so why not listen to “Kanpaku Sengen” and “Kanpaku Shikkaku” and take the opportunity to express your daily gratitude to your wife?
