It sings about the frustrating, mismatched feelings between a man and a woman before they become lovers, and those feelings are also similar to what a couple who once broke up and are trying to get back together might experience.

When it was released, the song also made headlines for achieving the highest number of digital downloads in the world.

As you follow the lyrics, you can read a development where, even though she realizes her current boyfriend is wonderful, she still seems to have lingering feelings for her ex.

It depicts a relationship with her new partner where she’s stretching herself a bit and feeling some emotional strain.

Before it gets too hard and she ends up trying to go back to where she was, she sings, “You should find someone new, too.” It may sound selfish, but it’s a song that leaves a slightly bittersweet aftertaste.

After being released as a digital-only single for four months, it was included on the album Gunjō Refrain.

Keisuke Kuwata – Surfin' Johnny (Short ver.)

A song released by Keisuke Kuwata in 2001 as his sixth solo single.

Set in the hot summer season perfect for surfing, it depicts a reunion with a former lover and the gradual rekindling of the passion they once shared, delivered in Kuwata’s gentle tone.

It also drew attention at the time as a commercial jingle, so some of you may remember it.

It’s a great one to listen to while reminiscing about the youthful days when you were head over heels in love!

This melancholic song by Kinki Kids is a number that squeezes your heart with a powerful love that still remains, even though the relationship can never go back to what it was.

After breaking up with someone you love, how would you feel if you heard your ex now has a new partner while you still haven’t moved on? You’d realize there’s no turning back, and yet the passionate feelings you still hold for that person would swell inside you until it hurts.

Setting those feelings to the bittersweet melody of “rain,” gently plucked on a guitar, this is a song overflowing with longing—one that quietly, painfully wishes for reconciliation in solitude.

This ballad gently soaks into the heart, honoring the simple act of saying “I love you” straight, carried by the warm tones of piano and strings.

It’s a comforting masterpiece for everyone who, while remembering the days with someone precious they only recognized after losing, hopes to tie the red string of fate once again.
