I want to be loved.Oku Hanako11rank/position

A song that tenderly embraces the earnest wish to be loved.

Created by singer-songwriter Okuhanako, it appears on the album “vol.best,” released in April 2005 during her indie days.

The piece gives voice, over a quiet piano melody, to a piercing question: can we keep living by clinging to the memories of being loved, even when we feel hollowed out by loneliness? Her voice—praised as one that can move you to tears on sound alone—seems to gently scoop up feelings that words can’t express.

The song distills the power of her music, which speaks straight to the heart—this is the artist who once sold 488 CDs in a single day at a street performance.

On nights when you long to be loved deeply by someone, listening alone in silence may kindle a warm light in your heart.

unrequited loveOku Hanako12rank/position

A life-sized unrequited-love song from a woman’s perspective.

In this song, the woman’s crush already knows how she feels.

He’s more friendly than before, but she still doesn’t know what he truly thinks.

She doesn’t mind, though—she just hopes that even a little of her feelings will reach him.

That’s how much she loves him, and she can’t let go of those feelings…
