UVERworld 'The Song You Like'

When a couple is relaxing and things have mellowed out at karaoke, a love ballad is a great choice.

UVERworld’s “Kimi no Suki na Uta” is a slightly bittersweet love ballad: it portrays the protagonist’s deepening feelings for their partner, whom they truly love, and how they listen to the songs their partner likes when they can’t meet, to ease the loneliness.
