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.

When you fall for someone, don’t you get curious about the people of the opposite sex around him or her, and feel jealous if the vibe seems even a little too good?

You worry, “What if they end up liking someone other than me someday?” right?

You might also feel jealous of new friends your beloved friend has made, or of someone who seems close to your ideal type.

In this article, we’ll introduce songs that explore various themes of jealousy and possessiveness.

Listening to tracks you can relate to can help you view yourself objectively, and it might even give you the courage to boldly confirm what’s been bothering you!

WEAVER – Look This Way (MUSIC VIDEO)

Even among songs about jealousy, some overflow with hatred, but this one has a “refreshing jealousy” vibe.

WEAVER’s fourth single, Look at Me, released in 2014, was written as the theme song for the film My Pretend Girlfriend (Momose, Kocchi wo Muite).

As the title suggests, it conveys a one-sided feeling: wishing the person you like would look your way, even though their eyes are on someone else.

For anyone who keeps an unforgettable love tucked away in their heart, this song is sure to hit home.

This song sings about a one-sided feeling: the person I like has someone else they like.

Mao Abe’s “Yada” is included on her third album, “Su.” released in 2011.

You can almost sense a grudge-like resentment toward the person that the one she likes has feelings for; it can even sound a bit like a lament.

But this is surely a straightforward feeling everyone has—anyone can end up resenting or envying someone and feeling this way.

Still, the song also conveys the sad emotion of not being able to hate them no matter what.

In conclusion

I introduced some songs with the theme of jealousy and possessiveness. What did you think? There were cute, playful jealousy songs, and a few that sent chills down your spine. When we fall in love, we become greedy—and anxious. Jealousy goes hand in hand with romance. But if our suspicions push the person we love away, it defeats the purpose, so that’s something to be careful about.
