RADWIMPS – me me she [Official Music Video]

Packed with Yojiro Noda’s unique worldview, “me me she” might sound like a happy song, but in the end, words of parting appear.

It’s unclear whether that signifies a true “goodbye,” yet as you listen to this calmly narrated song about someone dear, it seems to bring back various memories you’ve shared with the person you love.

[Official] Darling Dance / Kairiki Bear feat. Hatsune Miku

If you’re feeling anxious about your unrequited love, I recommend listening to “Darling Dance.” It’s a song that portrays the struggles of a woman who can’t get the attention of the man she likes.

With its very high tempo and intense melody, it naturally lifts your spirits as you listen.

The track is by the Vocaloid producer Kairiki Bear and uses Hatsune Miku.

Incidentally, the song also became a hot topic when Ado covered it.

It’s fun to compare the versions.

DECO*27 – Telepathy feat. Hatsune Miku

A high-energy track that turns the frustration of not being able to get your feelings across to your crush into explosive power.

It’s a song released by DECO*27—known for hits like “Hibana”—in February 2025.

It comically portrays the hectic, adolescent brand of puppy love, weaving in internet-native wordplay and coinages.

The arrangement features tepe, with bass by Akita Horie, giving the sound tremendous punch! If your heart’s unsettled from unrequited love, listening to this track will give you the power to even enjoy that restlessness!

m-flo loves YOSHIKA / let go

I heard this at a club and fell in love with it at first listen.

It’s a breakup song, but the vocals and melody are so good that I was completely drawn in.

I think it’s a stylish breakup song.

It also portrays the pain and regret of heartbreak, so I recommend it to anyone who wants to immerse themselves in those feelings.

Rira Ikuta “Sparkle” Official Music Video

This is a song by Rira Ikuta created around the theme of unrequited love.

It was chosen as the theme song for ABEMA’s original dating show, Today, I Fell in Love: Mikan Edition, which enjoys overwhelming support from teens.

The song portrays the process of growing through love—experiencing both joy and sorrow, learning what love is and what it means to care for someone.

When you hear this track, you can’t help but agree deeply with the idea that “you don’t choose to fall in love—it just happens.”

PinocchioP – Hey Hey Hey. feat. Kagamine Rin & Hatsune Miku / Nee Nee Nee.

With White Day just around the corner, some of you may have entered a rough patch in your relationship.

During these slumps, you might feel lonely because your partner isn’t paying you any attention, or sense that they’re hiding something.

A song that speaks for those feelings is “Nē Nē Nē” (“Hey, Hey, Hey”).

It was created by the Vocaloid producer PinocchioP.

The vocals feature Kagamine Rin and Hatsune Miku, each singing from the perspectives of a woman and a man.

If you’re in the middle of a fight, it might even help as a chance to make up.

PinocchioP – Magical Girl and Chocoleito feat. Hatsune Miku / Magical Girl and Chocolate

How about savoring the bittersweet reality behind sweet chocolate? It’s a song that blends PinocchioP’s signature bite and pop sensibility, using the motif of magical girls while portraying the exhaustion of chasing social media approval and curating oneself.

Released in February 2022, it’s also included on the album META.

It occupies a sequel-like position that recalls the classic Rotten Heresy and Chocolate, making it irresistible for fans.

It was also featured in the rhythm game Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! feat.

Hatsune Miku, where it drew a lot of attention.

Recommended for those who want to soak not only in the giddy Valentine’s atmosphere but also in the real emotions of modern life.

Enjoy the sweet, aching, and highly addictive sound!
