I Want You Back

They’re the original male group, and in the Black music scene I think they set the standard for everything.

You can see that even in Japan.

Folder5 and Pizzicato Five also trace back to them.

Daichi Miura covered them before his voice changed and became a hot topic as the “Japanese Michael Jackson.” Motown’s feel-good pop sound still makes the heart dance.

It’s a cute track where Afro-era Michael’s effort shines, and it’s among their most popular songs.

Charlie Puth – I Don’t Think That I Like Her (Official Audio)

“I Don’t Think That I Like Her,” sung by Charlie Puth from the United States, portrays the complex emotions of becoming hesitant about new love due to being hurt in past relationships.

Despite its up-tempo melody, the lyrics express a bittersweet feeling of sealing off one’s emotions with the thought, “Maybe I don’t like her anymore.” Out of fear of being hurt the same way again, he holds back and keeps some distance.

However, if you suppress your current feelings because of past pain, you’ll likely regret it.

Like this song suggests, perhaps the best thing is to accept your wavering heart just as it is.
