J-Pop Depressive Songs Ranking [2026] (91–100)

RevengeMy Hair is Bad99rank/position

This is a searing song that portrays the way the sorrow of a broken heart turns into resentment and anger.

Included on the album “mothers,” released in November 2017, the track tells a breakup story delivered with the raw emotion characteristic of My Hair is Bad.

It traces the emotional shift—from happy memories with a lover, to a sudden parting, and ultimately to a vow of “revenge,” as the title suggests—set against a propulsive melody.

The song vividly captures the subtle nuances of someone grappling with anger and bitterness after a breakup, leaving a strong impression of a complex state of mind where deep sorrow and love are intertwined.

When you can’t recover from a sense of loss, listening to this track may help you sublimate those emotions.

Crushed by an empty skyamazarashi100rank/position

You know that feeling like there’s a gaping hole in your heart… it happens, right? This song speaks for those emotions.

It’s a piece by the rock band amazarashi, led by Hiromu Akita, included on their first album, “Sennen Koufukuron” (A Thousand Years’ Theory of Happiness), released in 2011.

It makes you think, is it even fair for a song to hit this hard? Every single word in the lyrics carries a strong will.

That literary quality is precisely amazarashi’s appeal.

When your heart aches, this song will surely stay by your side.
