Kana Nishino 'Torisetsu' MV (Short Ver.)

These are somewhat unusual lyrics that express feelings for a lover in the form of an instruction manual.

Yet this manual is overflowing with love for the partner and speaks on behalf of the girl’s feelings.

Just by reading these lyrics, you can imagine what kind of couple they are.

Remioromen – Powder Snow (Music Video Short ver.)

The lyrics convey feelings for a lover so intensely that they almost hurt.

Their purity is as white and delicate as powder snow, yet somehow they leave the listener with a warm feeling.

Many people have covered this song, but I still think the original is the best.

Heart ForecastEVE

Heart Forecast – Eve MV

If you’re looking for a heart-fluttering unrequited-love song, this track might be perfect.

“Kokoro Yohou” by Eve was a collaboration with Lotte’s Ghana chocolate and served as a Valentine’s campaign song.

It’s packed with all the classic “unrequited love” moments—the unique thrill, the emotional highs and lows as you think about your crush all by yourself.

It’s an ideal song for middle schoolers in love: turn it up, boost your confidence, and maybe take the leap and confess your feelings!

GO FOR IT!!Nishino Kana

Kana Nishino 'GO FOR IT!! (short ver.)'

Sung by Kana Nishino, often called the goddess of love songs, this is a cheer song that gives a push to anyone with a crush! The lyrics are filled with the frustrations of youth—like not being able to close the distance with the person you like, or getting too nervous to talk to them.

Debating whether to send them a message, or even impulsively checking your fortune…

This song is packed with relatable “been there” moments that anyone in love will recognize.

Let Kana Nishino’s lyrics give you that little nudge forward.

Keyakizaka46 “Futari Saison”

“Saison” means “season” in French.

This very catchy, easy-to-remember song can be considered one of Keyakizaka46’s signature tracks.

It’s great for singing with a big group at karaoke, humming to yourself alone, or replaying in your head before bed.

No matter how many years pass, this song has a charm that will surely make you want to sing it again.

This is a Wasuta song that portrays love in the digital age.

Feelings of romance conveyed through social media and smartphones are expressed with a bright, pop melody.

It’s filled with modern emotions, like the urge to keep updating the other person’s profile and the ups and downs over changes in hair color.

Released in February 2024, the song is included on Wasuta’s 12th single.

It’s a perfect track for middle schoolers who use social media every day—a lively song that helps you view your feelings of love in a positive light.

I Tried Falling in Love with You – chay (Full)

This song is such an adorable love song that once you hear it, it sticks in your head and won’t let go.

I really hope middle schoolers will listen to it and have good experiences in love.

When you listen to this track, you naturally feel like having a fun, wholesome romance.

That slightly retro vibe is nice, isn’t it?
