DREAMS COME TRUE – "Osaka LOVER"

Even if your long-distance relationship is going well, as time goes by you start to think about marriage, right? DREAMS COME TRUE’s “Osaka LOVER” is a cute song set in Osaka that expresses the feelings of a woman fretting over a long-distance romance.

Sometimes, precisely because a long-distance relationship is going smoothly, it can fall into a rut.

No matter how mentally prepared you are, if he just won’t propose, the anxiety builds, doesn’t it? It’s a song that captures the feelings any woman in a long-distance relationship would have—“I want us to be together soon!”

White LoveSPEED

White Love – SPEED (Full)

I think there are many people of a certain generation who immediately think of this song when it comes to long-distance relationships.

It’s also one of SPEED’s signature tracks, and the fact that the members were high school students at the time helped it become a massive hit.

It’s a poignant winter song about a long-distance romance.

Remioromen – Telephone

A song that has existed since Remioromen’s indie days.

The first-press edition of their 9th single, “Taiyō no Shita,” includes a live recording of this track.

Even while talking on the phone to avoid feeling the distance, the small, unchangeable differences—like the weather or temperature—start to feel lonely, and you become desperate to see each other.

Sung as if speaking from a pure heart, it’s a long-distance love song that deeply resonates.

Stop timeTiara feat. WISE

Tiara “Stop the Time feat. WISE” (short ver.)

A long-distance love song inspired by a couple Tiara herself saw on a train platform.

The title alone really hits home as the emotion you feel when you finally get to see your lover.

Since the setting is the train platform—a tough place for long-distance couples—the raw, heartrending feelings come through vividly.

I long to see you now.MISIA

MISIA – Aitakute Ima (Official HD Music Video)

The theme song of the TBS drama “JIN,” in which a modern neurosurgeon time-slips back to the Edo period.

It’s a powerful ballad that MISIA perfected by pursuing the theme of “I want to see you.” Don’t you have feelings you wanted to express but couldn’t? A day may come when, even if you want to meet, you no longer can.

Voice of the SeaKiritani Kenta

"The Voice of the Sea" Full ver. / Urashima Taro (Kenta Kiritani) [Official]

It’s the song used in the au commercial, isn’t it? Kenta Kiritani, who plays Urashima Taro, sings this somewhat fleeting, wistful song—since he’s Urashima Taro, I suppose he’s singing it to Otohime.

The gently heartwarming melody and lyrics are really nice.
