Young Skinny – Love Is Blind [Official Music Video]

This song by Young Skinny depicts the emotional journey from the blind rush of falling in love to the changes of heart after a breakup.

It also drew attention for being chosen as the opening theme for the TBS drama “Uri wo Yaburu: Issen wo Koeta, Sono Saki ni wa.” Within its pop-rock sound, it skillfully conveys both the exhilaration of being lovestruck and the sense of loss that follows heartbreak.

Released digitally in January 2024, the track is also slated to be included on the album “Bukiyou na Watashi Dakara,” scheduled for release in March.

Nogizaka46 "Monopoly"

Nogizaka46, an idol group formed as AKB48’s official rivals, released their 34th single “Monopoly.” It’s a song about realizing that it’s impossible for the person you love to always be thinking only about you, and that you’ve been taking their kindness for granted.

With a calm tempo and a cool vibe, the lyrics center on the protagonist’s jealousy.

The title “Monopoly” means to possess exclusively, and the song ends with lyrics overflowing with that possessiveness.

It’s a track that conveys love through a straightforward and slightly playful heroine!
