Goodbye Song Rankings [2026]

Shell/Aiko (Drum Cover)

This is a song included on aiko’s single “Zutto,” released in 2011, and it’s been performed frequently on her concert tours.

As the title “Nukegara” (“Empty Shell”) suggests, the lyrics are a poignant reflection on memories of a past love.

We all have those times when the regret never fades—asking ourselves, “Why can’t I forget?” and “Why did we drift apart?” Trying to force yourself to be cheerful can sometimes make the emptiness feel even worse.

When you’re overwhelmed by loneliness, it might be okay to immerse yourself in old memories for a while before moving forward.

Just so you know, this feeling isn’t love!Tensen Tensei Shoujo.62rank/position

[MV] “Just so you know, this feeling is not love!” — Tenten (Tensen Tensei Shoujo.)

A sweet and bittersweet song by Tensen Tensei Shoujo that portrays the feelings of a girl who’s fallen in love but can’t be honest with her emotions.

Even as she denies, “It’s not love,” her heart flutters whenever she thinks about the person she likes—a feeling captured with striking realism.

Released in May 2024, this pop number expresses the heart of a classic tsundere girl.

It’s said to ignite the crowd so much that the atmosphere of the venue completely changes every time it’s performed live.

It’s a recommended track not only for those with a one-sided crush, but also for anyone who wants to look back on the sweet and sour memories of their youth.

[Dance] Sure Thing / Macaroni Empitsu

As you spend your days with someone important, small misunderstandings are bound to happen.

This song seems like one that, at moments when you feel you’re losing sight of the other person, gives you a chance to reflect on your original feelings and the unchanging truths between you.

The gentle sound of Macaroni Enpitsu leaves the impression that it quietly soothes an unsettled heart.

The emotionally charged vocals also convey a great love that is reborn after looking back at yourself.

It’s a song that seems to help rebuild an unstable heart when you no longer understand your own feelings or the other person’s, and that strengthens your resolve to face your emotions.

Played Mr.Children “Shiawase no Category” [Salaryman TAKEYA]

The gentle mid-tempo number “Categories of Happiness” is included on Mr.Children’s 1997 album.

Its nostalgic, slightly wistful melody and lyrics perfectly capture the confusion of being in love.

Not knowing whether you truly like that person or whether this feeling is love—this classic by Mr.Children gently accompanies those wavering emotions, embracing the sweet yet unstable complexity of a heart in love.

Why not spend some quiet, solitary moments listening to this song when you’re lost in thought?

I Might Be in Love ~Osaka Story~Mori Masako & Marumoto Hiroshi65rank/position

I Might Be in Love ~Osaka Story~

A man and woman bantering in Osaka dialect makes a huge impact! It’s a duet by Masako Mori, renowned for her outstanding vocal prowess, and singer-songwriter Hiroshi Madoka.

The sound evokes Showa-era kayōkyoku, which will surely feel nostalgic to some listeners.

Many of us know the frustration of not even being sure whether we’re truly in love and agonizing over whether to make a move.

Perhaps the key to avoiding regrets in romance is taking that step from “maybe I like you” and honestly sharing your true feelings with each other.
