Is that okay?RADWIMPS
RADWIMPS are a four-piece rock band that has continued to enjoy overwhelming support from mainstream teenagers since the mid-2000s.
With unadorned vocals, catchy melodies, and lyrics that resonate with anyone, they’ve remained active and popular for many years.
A one-sided-love song by them that I’d recommend is Iindesuka? (“Is It Okay?”).
It became popular for its essay-like lyrics, where a man in love humorously puts his feelings into words.
silentSEKAI NO OWARI
SEKAI NO OWARI is a hugely popular band that draws overwhelming support from teens and people in their twenties with catchy, unmistakably J-pop melodies that go down easy.
Their unique visuals are also a hit, and their music videos are highly acclaimed.
They’re truly an artist you can enjoy with both your eyes and ears.
Their classic track “silent” was released in December 2020 as their 15th single.
With its abstract lyrics, it’s a song that I think will resonate with anyone.
It’s a must-listen for middle schoolers dealing with unrequited love!
Heart ForecastEVE
If you’re looking for a crush song that makes your heart flutter and dance, this might be the perfect track.
Eve’s “Kokoro Yohou” was a collaboration with Lotte’s Ghana chocolate and served as the Valentine’s campaign song.
It’s packed with all the classic “crush” moments—the excitement, overthinking on your own, getting carried away and then feeling down.
I think it’s an ideal song for middle schoolers in love.
Get in the mood and do your best to confess!

PretenderOfisharu Higedan Dism
When it comes to Higedan’s signature songs, many people would probably name this one.
“Pretender” is Official HIGE DANDism’s second single, released in 2019, and it was also the theme song for the film “The Confidence Man JP: The Movie.” It’s a love ballad overflowing with bittersweet emotion—a sad song about unfulfilled love—but it’s also a track that powerfully amplifies the feelings of unrequited love.
CHE.R.RYYUI
Many junior high schoolers have smartphones these days, right? YUI’s “CHE.R.RY” is a song that those students will definitely find themselves saying, “I totally get it!” It was used in a commercial for au’s music distribution and e-book service “LISMO,” and it completely captured the hearts of the generation that were students at the time.
You’ll surely relate to the lyrics that straightforwardly express the excitement, anxiety, and hope of exchanging messages with someone you like through email or LINE.
The song tells the whole story of the heartache of a one-sided crush, where even just having a normal conversation makes your heart race.
Blue and SummerMrs. GREEN APPLE
This is a song written as the theme for the film Aonatsu: Kimi ni Koi Shita 30-nichi.
It’s one of Mrs.
GREEN APPLE’s most popular tracks—a high-velocity rock tune perfect for midsummer.
Many middle schoolers out there might be in love right now, don’t you think? This isn’t a bittersweet unrequited love song, but one that asks, “Are you okay with things staying as they are?” The more serious the love, the more timid we become.
But unless we make an effort to change, we can’t move forward.
If you want to change, listen to this song and let it fire you up!
KanadeSukima Suichi
Ever since its release in 2004, Sukima Switch’s “Kanade” has been cherished as a timeless love song and moving ballad.
It’s no surprise that so many artists have covered it and that it’s been featured in numerous tie-ins.
It’s also a very popular karaoke number.
Loved across generations, this song has something that grips everyone’s heart—you’ve probably found yourself in a mood that suits it at some point.
It’s a recommended track for when you want to quietly think about someone you love.
