Primarily active in Tokyo, I have experience as a backup dancer for artists, a music video dancer, and a commercial dancer. I continue to work as a dancer while also engaging in article production. After discovering Michael Jackson in junior high school, I began dancing in my second year of high school. Since starting dance, in addition to the J-Pop and Japanese rock I had been listening to, I began exploring Western R&B, rap, alternative music, and other tracks commonly used for dance. In elementary school, I spent three years in a choir, and because I love singing, I often go to karaoke for fun. These days, I enjoy a wide range of music, from Japanese rock and rap to K-pop.

This time, I’ll be introducing some love songs that are really popular on Instagram Reels!

Of course, they’re great for posts with your partner, but many people also use them for videos featuring their pets or children, for their favorite idols, or simply as background music with no particular theme.

There are songs that express many kinds of love, so be sure to pay attention to the lyrics as you listen!

A refreshing youth pop tune themed around the “distance of love” in romance.

Vaundy’s soft yet powerful vocals blend exquisitely with Moka Sato’s transparent voice, vividly expressing the anxieties and joys of being in love.

It portrays, in a true-to-life way, the struggle between feelings for the other person and being overwhelmed by one’s own emotions, gently embracing the push-and-pull and inner conflicts that everyone experiences in love.
