Mikito-P "Band-Aid" MV

It’s a song that depicts first love and graduation.

The track, which was also adapted into a novel, moved many to tears with its combination of themes: the bittersweetness of youth, a slightly painful romance, and graduation.

It expresses a powerful longing for someone you love, the time spent until now, and parting—portraying student romance in straightforward lyrics.

Despite being a male singer-songwriter, Mosao has gained popularity with love songs told from a woman’s perspective.

Rare among his tracks, Ragugaki uses the first-person pronoun “boku,” and it’s a perfect song for expressing gratitude to someone special during graduation season.

The way it captures individual memories through vivid scenes is especially moving.

Also, in the music video, two men sit facing each other on a sandy beach, which makes it interesting to interpret the song as a message of thanks from one man to another.

SHOW BY ROCK!! [Rumored Petalz] Meteor Shower (SHOWBYROCK IP)

A song filled with determination yet tinged with sadness, about feelings for a beloved person from whom you grew apart without ever being able to say “I love you.” Resolving to tell them the next time you meet, all you can do for now is wish upon the stars for the chance to see them again.

You can feel the painful, heartrending emotion of regret in the repeated refrain, “If only I had been able to clearly tell you I loved you back then.” Even though time has passed, the way the person still keeps thinking about them only intensifies the poignancy.

I thought it was the perfect song for a bittersweet youthful romance.

It’s the kind of song that makes you want to listen to it with your partner.

You can really feel the adorable couple’s feelings of love, and listening to it makes you happy.

It brings back memories of those fun school days, and I feel like I could graduate with a smile.

March of MarchDoramasure

March of March

Drama Store is a rock band from Osaka that performs with the concept of “music that makes you the protagonist.” Not only are they known for intense rock, but they also have a strong reputation for buoyant pop-rock that naturally makes you want to dance, earning broad support from teens.

Their cherry blossom-themed song “March of March” is an uplifting youth anthem that casts a bright light on one-sided love and heartbreak, which tend to feel gloomy.

Skillfully weaving into the lyrics the saying about how quickly time passes—“January goes, February flees…”—the song reassuringly suggests that the meetings and farewells of youth surely have meaning.

It’s a track we especially recommend to anyone feeling anxious about unrequited love!

To you, my best friend in the worldHakoniiwa Ririi

To You, My Best Friend in the World / Haconiiwa Lily [Music Video]

“To You, My Best Friend in the World” is a ballad by Hakoniwa Lily that countless students, quietly carrying heartache, are sure to relate to.

While keeping the relationship as friends, the complex psychology of continuing to harbor romantic feelings is expressed through lyrics that are both delicate and powerful.

Even amid a fulfilling student life, there’s a line that can never be crossed… The way both of their feelings melt together into a harmony is truly exquisite.

It will add color to a graduation ceremony and speak the feelings you couldn’t put into words.
