aiko - “Kuchibiru” music video

“Kuchibiru” is quite easy to sing for people who are good at falsetto.

Released in 2012, it’s included on the album “Toki no Silhouette.” While Aiko often releases love songs, this one stands out among them for expressing an exceptionally realistic sense of love—a sweet yet heartrending track.

What enhances that poignancy is the clear, transparent falsetto.

Her relaxed, unforced vocals draw out feelings that are true to life.

It’s a song I recommend to those who struggle to hit high notes in chest voice but are confident with falsetto.

Shutter / aiko (Drum Cover)

From the casual exchanges between lovers, Shutter depicts wavering emotions.

Singer-songwriter aiko included it on her 2006 album Kanojo.

Starting from the moment of meeting someone who later experiences heartbreak, it portrays how feelings gradually drift apart.

Many may relate to becoming fixated on a partner’s small, passing gestures.

The song features a jazzy performance colored by the bright tones of a brass band.

Why not lend an ear to its considerate words that wish happiness for the one you love?

aiko Love Road

A masterful song by aiko that captures both the ache and warmth of a long-distance relationship.

Included on the album “Himitsu,” this track delicately portrays the feelings of two people in love despite the distance.

From the opening lines, you can sense the awkwardness and anxiety of their reunion.

Yet it also highlights the importance of communication, singing that “the two of us still have words.” Released on the April 2008 album and performed on her 2011 live tour, it’s a highly recommended song not only for those in long-distance relationships but for anyone who wants to feel the bond with someone special.

aiko-『Smooch!』music video

This song deeply resonates with couples who have been together for a long time, speaking to a slightly stagnant partner about how precious you are to each other and how important the present moment is.

Couples who feel things might be getting a bit routine should give it a listen—you might just recapture the feelings you had when you first started dating.

aiko - “Kimi no Tonari” music video

The Ghana chocolate commercial “Message Ribbon,” which aired starting in 2013, featured Mao Asada talking about skating and love—something I think remained in many people’s hearts.

The song used in the CM was Aiko’s “Kimi no Tonari.” It’s a track that expresses a woman’s wish to stay close to the person she loves from afar.

Its lyrics and refreshing sound matched the atmosphere of the commercial perfectly.

Listening to it during Valentine’s Day or other love-related occasions is sure to lift your spirits.

Love sicknessaiko49rank/position

Love sickness

This song sings of a searing pain that burns the chest as the flames of love blaze higher, as if being consumed by an illness.

It’s the opening number of Aiko’s 2000 album “Under the Cherry Tree.” The lyrics put into words raw emotions—feelings so intense you cry in silence, a body changing through a fateful encounter.

For anyone burdened by the agony of loving someone too much, a mix of dependence and longing, this track will surely strike a chord.

Masanori Shimada’s arrangement, with piano and guitar intertwining, makes the poignancy all the more vivid.
