MACO – Sweet Memory [Music Video]

There’s also Seiko Matsuda’s song with a similar title, “Sweet Memories,” but for those born in the Heisei and Reiwa eras, MACO’s track is likely the go-to “Sweet Memories.” The lyrics—about knowing you shouldn’t be drawn to each other, yet being unable to help falling in love—offer a timeless approach to romance.

They hit all the right notes of unrequited love’s poignancy, bringing tears to your eyes naturally.

The somewhat Western-style melody reflects her foundation growing up listening to artists like Mariah Carey as a child.

Be sure to check out the drama-style music video as well.

MACO – Kiss

It’s a heartrending love song that captures deep lingering feelings and sadness for a former lover.

MACO’s gentle yet powerful vocals resonate with those who carry the pain of heartbreak.

The image of stroking the pillow where you no longer lie as the morning sun rises conveys a profound loneliness.

Included on the debut album “FIRST KISS,” released in November 2015, the song reached as high as No.

5 on the Oricon charts.

Surely, the sadness will begin to heal little by little.

MACO – Love Feelings

MACO - Under the Cherry Tree [Music Video], insert song for 'In a World Where Only I Am 17'

Singer-songwriter MACO gained attention for her Japanese cover of Taylor Swift’s “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.” Her 13th digital single, “Sakura no Ki no Shita,” written as an insert song for the AbemaTV original drama “In a World Where Only I Am 17,” resonates with its lyrical melody woven by her clear, transparent vocals.

The worldview of the lyrics—recalling encounters with loved ones alongside the cherry blossoms—likely overlaps with many listeners’ own experiences.

It’s a ballad with superb arrangements that blend seamlessly into springtime scenery, the kind of song you’ll want to keep listening to.
