Romance Songs Themed Around Homosexuality and LGBTQ+ (21–30)
first cryOmoinotake
Omoinotake’s “Ubugoe” portrays someone coming to terms with the budding feelings of love within themselves.
Included on the 2020 mini-album “Long for,” the song was chosen as the opening theme for the drama “Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!,” which depicts a same-sex romance.
When you develop feelings for someone—whether they’re the opposite sex or the same sex—many people may want to keep those feelings to themselves at first.
But rather than hiding them away, facing them honestly might lead to spending joyful time with the person you like.
The song depicts a love lived with that kind of positive mindset.
Set to a refreshing melody, it offers hope to those grappling with feelings for someone of the same sex.
Family SongHoshino Gen
I believe this song, which wishes for people’s happiness, carries the hope that everyone can be equally happy.
I especially want those in the LGBT community who are suffering as a minority to listen to it.
We were all born with the right to be happy, so let’s live without giving in to various forms of backlash.
Also, pay attention to Gen Hoshino’s gentle singing voice.
Compilation of love songs themed around homosexuality and LGBTQ+ (31–40)
Kiss me.Mukai Taichi
The word “androgynous” might already be outdated.
With jazzy sounds and a dazzling voice, the worldview that transcends gender feels comforting.
“Kiss You”—no matter what kind of relationship it depicts—seems to open up a world where the two can see light ahead.
If such a world spreads, music like this will ripple through and bring peace, I feel.
It’s a highly recommended track.
same-sex lovetakayan
This song portrays love that transcends gender.
Released in March 2023, it’s a track Takayan created with the theme of same-sex love.
It’s also available on platforms like YouTube and TikTok, and its poppy, energetic sound has gained popularity on social media.
The lyrics emphasize the importance of loving one another regardless of gender and carry a message for the LGBTQ+ community.
It’s a must-listen for anyone who wants to feel the universality and diversity of love.
Friend’s PoemNakamura Ataru
In the midst of a major paradigm shift, listen to the voice that kept singing her true self.
Because of her uniquely mellow consonants, it can sound like a folk song from a much older era.
It seems the times have only just begun to change, a little behind her.
“Being just friends” is a phrase used regardless of sexual orientation, but when you hear this song’s melody, it’s hard to believe that it’s truly satisfying from the depths of the heart.
how beautiful you areHamasaki Ayumi
Sadly, we still live in a reality where discrimination based on gender, skin color, appearance, and language is an everyday occurrence.
This song sings that everyone has good qualities and that everyone is beautiful.
Listening to it, I sincerely wished to be someone who can encourage others just by being by their side, no matter who they are.
It’s a highly recommended song that I hope you’ll listen to with love in your heart.
HoneyKehlani
Kehlani hasn’t made any official announcement, but people speculate that she might be gay.
The reason is the lyrics of this song.
Although at first they seem like heartfelt words of friendship addressed to a female friend, she questions whether that love might actually be romantic.
If she is struggling with her sexuality, she may still lack confidence and be in a state of inner conflict.
