Lovely love song

“I Want to See You”: A love song that makes you cry when you listen to it while you can’t meet

Accompanist / Piano Instructoryuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.

I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

We’ve put together a collection of songs overflowing with “I miss you,” perfect for someone you like, an ex you’ve broken up with, or a partner in a long-distance relationship.

They’re all tear-jerking tracks that stay close to a aching heart, so you’re sure to find a song that resonates with your feelings.

Listening to sentimental music when you’re lonely might seem like it will only make things harder, but letting yourself sink into the sadness with a song can help you sort out your emotions and maybe even look forward again.

Find the tracks that speak to your heart, and take your time listening to your inner voice about what you want to do with that “I want to see you” feeling inside you.

I Want to See You ~Missing You~Matsuda Seiko

A gemlike love ballad that sings of the pain of heartbreak everyone experiences at least once and the longing for a reunion.

The tender, heartrending lyrics penned by Seiko Matsuda herself are etched deeply in the heart along with nostalgic memories.

Each time her sweet, soft voice rings out over the gentle melody, memories of a past lover come flooding back.

Released in April 1996, this song drew major attention as the ending theme for “Beat Takeshi’s TV Tackle” and as a Canon commercial song.

It’s the kind of nostalgic love song you’ll find yourself softly humming on nights when you recall the warmth of someone you once loved, immersing yourself in the feelings of those days.

In conclusion

We’ve introduced songs filled with the feeling of wanting to see someone—did you find the one you were hoping to hear? Not being able to meet the person you want to see is tough, but listening to songs that share the same emotions might help calm your heart a little.

It might even spark the urge to go see them.

If that happens, it might be a good idea to take the plunge and go meet them.
