I knew it—I love you.yashiki takajin

I knew it—I love you.

Takajin Yashiki, who sadly passed away in 2014, might have been the very embodiment of the word “maverick.” The anecdotes are endless—like how he supposedly drank all the whiskey on the plane he was flying on, or how he once spent 10 million yen in a single night at a club in Shinchi.

Many people still openly call themselves his fans.

This massive hit of his is also a song that includes the word “like/love.” Even after a breakup, you still like them—when a strong man like Takajin sings that, it hits even harder.

And the Osaka dialect shortening of “yappari” to “yappa” is charming, isn’t it?

I love you, I love you, I love you.Kōda Kumi

Kumi Koda / “I Love You, I Love You, I Love You.” (from the new album “WINTER of LOVE”)

Kumi Koda’s heartrending ballad stirs the listener’s heart.

Released in March 2011, the song is also included on the album “Dejavu.” It was used in Kracie’s Ichikami commercial and resonated with many people.

The way her overflowing feelings of love are expressed is a unique charm only Kumi Koda can deliver.

Her portrayal of the anguish of love is sure to strike a chord with many.

Brimming with emotion as it reminisces about lost love, the piece is suffused with melancholy, heightened by piano and strings.

A song dedicated to everyone in love—perfect for those moments when you want to recall an unforgettable love.

Say you like me.aimyon

Say you like me.

This is a song from Aimyon’s second album, “Nikumarekko Yo ni Habaru,” released in 2015, that sings about a slightly endearing—almost frightening—maiden’s heart.

Aimyon’s second album seems to confront themes of “life” and “death,” so this track, which sits as a pure love song among them, feels a bit unusual.

The lyrics, in which a girl who was cheated on and dumped pours out her resentment, are something many women who’ve been betrayed might find all too relatable.

It’s also amusing how the title “Sukitte Itte yo” (“Say you love me”) starts to sound more like “Suki to Ieyo” (“Say you love me, now”).
