[Menhera & Yandere Songs] A curated selection of love songs so devoted it hurts!

Love me, love me, love meKikuo

Kikuo – Love Me, Love Me, Love Me

This song portrays an overpowering love so intense it borders on madness, a plea to be loved relentlessly.

The eerie sound design amplifies the unsettling atmosphere of the track, with extremely hard-panned elements that heighten anxiety.

Alongside the deep, overwhelming affection, it also expresses a desire to eliminate anything that gets in the way—at times depicted in a violent manner, which leaves a strong impression.

While the intensity of the love comes through, the overall mood and nuanced lyrics evoke images of an unstable mind and feelings of fear.

DECO*27 – Psychogram feat. Hatsune Miku

I can’t help wanting to keep the person I love all to myself… Some of you may relate to that feeling.

This is a song by DECO*27, a popular Vocaloid producer who also writes for well-known artists.

It’s included on the 2019 album “Android Girl.” The track unfolds over a downer-style guitar riff that creates an intense sense of darkness and fear, yet the chorus has a catchiness that feels like your vision suddenly clears.

Let’s eatKurahashi Yoeko

"Itadakimasu" / Yoeko Kurahashi

As the title “Itadakimasu” suggests, this chilling song tells the story of someone who, out of love, ends up eating the person they adore.

True to her style often described as jazz kayō, the track is striking for its jazzy character—walking lines on the upright bass, sprightly drum beats, and a light, airy piano accompaniment.

All the more for that, the presence of the deranged lyrics stands out vividly.

When the thought of “I don’t want anyone to take the one I love” is carried to its extremes, give this song a listen.

Addiction to youGarakuta

Junk – Your Addiction (Official Music Video)

This is a yandere song with a cool, poppy and rhythmic sound, themed around love and dependency in the age of social media.

It’s a track by Garakuta, a rock band from Nagoya, released in September 2023.

It was later included on the album “May My Songs Fill the Gaps in Your Heart,” released in March 2024.

The lyrics portray someone anxiously waiting for replies on a messaging app to keep tabs on the person they like, riding waves of elation and despair on their own, and sinking deeper and deeper into darkness.

A whirlpool of emotions expressed through pop sounds and a clear, transparent voice.

If you’re so in love that it’s wearing down your body and mind, you may find it painfully relatable.

Hyperventilation LoveTonbokōpu

Tonbo Corp – Hyperventilation Love (Music Video)

A band that wields lyricism blending the everyday and the imaginary, Tombocorp delivers a yandere song.

It portrays suffocating levels of obsession and dependence—like lyrics lifted straight from a menhera-leaning psyche—drowning in heavy love.

The way their overflowing love for the other person is crammed into such a short span makes it a pretty severe case.

This track is included on the album “Ecdysis,” released in August 2023, and was also chosen as the opening theme for the TV Tokyo drama “Yawa-otoko to Kata-ko.” If you’re looking for a song about love that’s way too heavy, you’ll surely like this one!

I want to be the girl you remember when you die.samezame

Sobbing — I want to be the girl you remember when you die.

Saori Fueta is a multi-talented artist active as a musician, writer, lyricist, and accessory creator.

In 2009, prompted by the birth of “Love, Dreams, Romance, and SEX,” she began activities as Samezame as a project by Saori Fueta.

At first you might think it’s a very cute, girly pop song—but it’s actually quite a shocking track.

A straightforward girl who loves her boyfriend is wonderful, but with this song, it feels like she’s saying, no matter what he thinks, “You’ll be with me until the day we die.”

I’m only gazing at you.Daikoku Maki

Only Looking at You (2019 Remastered)

This is the sixth single by singer-songwriter Maki Ohguro, about whom, due to her infrequent TV appearances at the time of her debut, even an urban legend arose that she didn’t actually exist.

The song was used as an ending theme for the TV anime SLAM DUNK, and it’s an arresting number characterized by lyrics that evoke what today might be called a “mentally unstable” vibe and by accenting orchestral hits that stick in your ears.

While the lyrics suggest the kind of woman often labeled as “heavy,” perhaps the existence of a woman who would change everything for your sake might be an ideal for a certain number of men.

It’s a striking song about a love—devotion to a man to the point of abandoning everything—that borders on madness.
