[Love Songs] Recommended love songs. Masterpieces that sing about feelings of love.
What kind of story is the “love song” you’re looking for?
Who are the characters, and what emotions are in motion?
Even when we say love song, it comes in many forms.
Just as some romances begin while others end, there are as many love stories as there are people in love.
Some people are thrilled to be united with the one they love; some are still struggling to catch up with the sorrow of a goodbye; and perhaps some are starting to think about marriage beyond dating, gazing at their partner while looking toward the future.
Because the beginnings and endings of love stories differ from person to person, the love songs we introduce here have been selected from a wide range of perspectives.
“I want to know your recommendations.” “I want to hear a love song that touches my heart.” “I’d like something happy.”
You’re sure to find the love song you’ve been wanting to hear.
These are all tracks that anyone can recognize as masterpieces, so please give them a listen.

Maplesupittsu
Speaking of Spitz, they’re a nationally beloved band that represents Japan.
Among their songs, this love song is especially popular, right? Masamune Kusano’s clear, translucent vocals make the beauty of this track stand out even more.
At the same time, when you look at the lyrics that depict parting, I think anyone can relate by connecting them to their own experiences.
Their songs are known for literary lyrics, so interpretations vary from listener to listener, but from any angle you take, you can feel the ache of heartbreak and the lingering attachment to a loved one—it tightens your chest.
HOWEVERGLAY
GLAY’s hugely popular love song “HOWEVER” was a million seller.
It remains a long‑loved karaoke favorite, especially among men singing love songs.
Beyond its easy-to-listen-to melody and high-quality backing sound, the song captivates listeners with a perfectly balanced rise and fall that builds as it progresses.
It’s one of the greatest love songs representing the 1990s.

It’s a ballad that brings out Aimer’s gentle yet powerful vocals.
Comparing the fragility of unrequited love to snow gives it a romantic touch, making it a truly beautiful piece.
The lyrics, which suggest that pain and hardship can become catalysts for growth, seem to offer solace to those experiencing unrequited love.
Love SongGReeeeN
A song that carries the feeling of being healed just by having her by your side, and the importance of spending ordinary moments together.
A woman who’s loved this much must be truly happy, right? If you can’t express your gratitude to your girlfriend or find it hard to propose, you might consider giving her this song in place of words.
Shapes Of LoveEvery Little Thing
A bright, poppy, and exhilarating number that vividly brings back the flutter of falling in love.
Released in October 1997 as their sixth single, it became widely known as the theme song for the TV drama “Intern Nanako.” The glittering synth sound crafted by Mitsuru Igarashi and Kaori Mochida’s clear, powerful vocals are a perfect match.
In fact, this song also marked their first appearance at that year’s NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
The lyrics portray the feelings of love you want to confess but can’t quite put into words—something anyone with an unrequited crush will surely relate to.
Give it a listen when you need the courage to confess, or when you want to boost your mood and stay positive.
bouquetback number
This song, with its striking lyrics written as a dialogue between a couple from the very beginning, is one of back number’s signature tracks, loved by many listeners for its numerous ballads.
The lyrics have a somewhat laid-back feel, yet what’s depicted is a man pledging straightforward, unwavering love.
Precisely because the tone is so relaxed, the sincerity of that love stands out even more.
Try listening to this song while imagining yourself and the person you have feelings for.
