Heart Forecast – Eve MV

If you’re looking for a sweet-and-sour unrequited love song that’ll make you hum along without thinking, I recommend this track by Eve.

It’s included on the album “Smile,” released in February 2020, and it was also used as a Valentine’s campaign song in collaboration with Ghana Chocolate.

The song is packed with classic “unrequited love moments,” like the fluttery excitement, getting carried away in your own head, and then feeling down again.

It’s a perfect fit for lovestruck middle and high school students.

Listen to this song, lift your spirits, and do your best to confess your feelings!

Sukima Switch – “Ice Cream Syndrome” (Short ver.)

The lyrics of Sukima Switch’s “Ice Cream Syndrome,” which sing about two people whose distance never seems to shrink, are heartbreaking.

Released as a single in 2010, it was chosen as the theme song for the film “Pokémon the Movie: Diamond & Pearl—Zoroark: Master of Illusions,” and reached No.

6 on the Oricon singles chart.

The title evokes the scene of ice cream melting while you hesitate and fail to confess your feelings—so fitting for summer, isn’t it? It also ranked seventh in a 2012 fan vote, so be sure to give it a listen!
