S’il vous plaît, PresidentPmaru-sama.
A smash-hit, hugely talked-about song that absolutely blew up on TikTok in 2021.
It got so big that there’s hardly a mega-influencer on TikTok who didn’t use it.
Its over-the-top world of jealousy was both ridiculous and wildly relatable.
The song starts with a monologue from an almost impossible premise—“When I’m elected president”—and by the time the chorus hits, its cuteness outweighs the cruelty of the payback… It’s an ultra-happy track you’ll want to listen to over and over.
A fun, playful anthem that hypes up the feeling of not tolerating cheating!
CountdownCocco
A song that belts out a cheated-on woman’s jealousy alongside an addictive guitar tone.
The condescending, threat-laden lyrics are crazy and pack a punch! If you cheated, this track will make you want to drop to your knees and swear you’ll never do it again.
Unrequited lovemiwa
This is the eighth single by singer-songwriter miwa, released in 2012.
It’s a poignant number that passionately sings of straightforward feelings of love.
She wants him to fall for her, wants to tell him she loves him, yet knows this love won’t come true.
It captures the sadness and pain of being in love that any woman who has experienced unrequited love can relate to.
The beautiful sound of piano and strings, combined with miwa’s clear high-toned voice, makes the heartbreak feel even more intense.
Give me a freakish kissGesu no Kiwami Otome.
This song’s lyrics depict a relationship where both people rely on each other.
It was released in 2014 as the major-label debut single of the four-piece band Gesu no Kiwami Otome.
It gained attention as the opening theme for the drama “Around 30-chan: Uncensored.” Many listeners were likely drawn in by its progressive sound.
It’s a track with a captivating, mysterious atmosphere.
her boyfriendMakihara Noriyuki
This is Noriyuki Makihara’s seventh single, released in 1993.
It reached No.
4 on the weekly Oricon chart.
The song portrays the pain of realizing that his girlfriend prefers his best friend over him.
While feeling jealous of the friend who keeps taking away what he treasures, he sings about his heartbreaking inability to give up on her.
If you want to make me your girlfriendKoresawa
Koresawa’s “Atashi o Kanojo ni Shitai Nara” feels like a song that jots down a quick list of requests for a future boyfriend.
Reading the lyrics, it almost sounds like she’s saying, “You don’t have to think about anything—just love me the way I want you to.” But I also get the sense that this is the flip side of wanting to be loved that much.
It might be a bravado-filled girl’s best defensive wall.
If you started dating her, you’d probably be on the receiving end of the ultimate possessiveness from a very jealous girlfriend.

PlagiarismYorushika
Plagiarism is a song that conveys the thoughts of a protagonist who has succumbed to musical plagiarism.
It’s included on Yorushika’s third full-length album, Plagiarism, released in 2020.
While feeling loneliness and jealousy, the protagonist fixates on “beautiful things” and simply wants to fill their heart.
That’s why they commit plagiarism, as if pursuing beauty itself.
There also seems to be a similarity to the feeling in romance of wanting to fill your heart with something that’s yours alone.
Give it a listen when you find yourself feeling jealous.
