The lyrics, which capture the bittersweet yet warm feelings between lovers, are sure to make you popular if you sing it at karaoke! Though it’s by a female singer, I think it totally works for men to sing it, too!
Unfit to be a loverKoresawa
There are also cases where men like women who show their vulnerable side, right? With that in mind, here’s “Koibito Shikkaku” by Koresawa.
It was released digitally in 2019.
It’s an answer song to her signature track “Tabako,” written from a male point of view about feelings toward an ex.

The steady, quietly flowing emotion in the arrangement is also deeply moving.
Try imitating Koresawa’s whisper-like singing style.
