Songs about love. A collection of classic love songs.

About the two of uskarin

Karin “About the Two of Us” [MV]

Singer-songwriter Karin, who gained attention from her piano-and-vocal videos on TikTok.

Released in March 2023, this song portrays lovers facing a farewell at a quiet bus stop.

Though they speak different languages and grew up in different environments, they spent their days laughing at the same things and crying over the same things.

In lyrics that gently trace the overlapping of their hearts, a form of love that transcends gender and nationality comes into view.

It’s a song that resonates with the determination to keep believing in each other, even when distance keeps them apart and they can’t meet when they want to.

Tsukiyomi “Fairer Than Death” Music Video

A Tsukuyomi song that portrays the story of two girls swaying between “death” and “life.” Released in May 2024, this track opens the concept album We Call That God.

Centered on the rooftop moment when a girl with the special ability of precognitive dreams meets a girl about to end her life, it gently weaves the special feelings that grow between them.

It’s a piece I’d especially recommend to anyone who wants to receive the message that you don’t need a reason to care about someone.

To my belovedMoriyama Naotaro

Naotaro Moriyama — To My Beloved

A gem of a ballad by singer-songwriter Naotaro Moriyama, who captivates with his unique worldview and voice.

Carried by delicate piano tones, it sings a deep, earnest prayer for a loved one.

“I just want you by my side, I want to believe until the end…” Such pure feelings are sure to move you.

Included on the 2004 album In Search of New Spices, it also drew major attention that same year as an insert song for the drama To My Beloved.

Its gentle melody, which softly wraps your anxieties, will give you the push to take your next step.

Bedtime Candy No. 2Kubota Kai

[MV] Kubota Kai / Bedtime Candy No. 2

A mellow hip-hop number that portrays the complex mix of sweetness and self-loathing felt by a young man who ends up spending the night with the person he secretly liked.

It’s the lead track from Miyazaki-born Kubota Kai’s 2019 EP “Myōjō,” and its appeal lies in its literary lyrics—quoting poet Chuya Nakahara—and its urban, R&B-tinged production.

From the late-night push and pull to the emptiness of the morning after, the song unfolds with detailed scenes that pierce the heart with an unvarnished take on love.

The flow that moves between rapping and singing is addictive, making it a track you’ll want to listen to while wandering through the city at night.

NO MORE YOUA.B.C-Z

A.B.C-Z / NO MORE YOU (Music Video)

A straight-up dance track that portrays the emotional momentum of moving on from heartbreak.

Opening the album “CRAZY ROMANTIC!” released in October 2025, this song pairs a revivalist synth sound inspired by ’90s–’00s J-pop with a four-on-the-floor beat for a satisfying finish.

That soundscape lifts the lyrics’ push-and-pull between bravado and lingering attachment into something light and buoyant.

Give it a listen when you’re ready to put a period on a past love, step into a new you, or simply look forward with positivity.

Pink Strawberry Chocolate Friday

This is a solo track by Shiyoh Hirano.

Centered on the sweet, bittersweet memories of a past love, it conjures scenes like walking hand in hand along the railway—just like a moment from a film.

The structure is superb, unfolding from rap-like spoken lines into a beautiful chorus, and his husky, gentle vocals further heighten the song’s melancholy.

The track is included on the album “No.Ⅱ,” released in September 2025.

When you want to quietly look back on an old love, listening to it will surely keep you company.

ILLIT (아일릿) ‘Almond Chocolate’ Special Film

This is ILLIT’s first original Japanese song, following the worldwide success of their debut single “Magnetic,” which also earned them the New Artist Award at the Japan Record Awards at the end of 2024.

The track was co-produced by Nakajin from SEKAI NO OWARI and Pdogg, and likens the multifaceted nature of love to a confection with a sweet exterior and a bittersweet center.

The lyrics compare overflowing feelings of affection to going over capacity, while the sparkling pop sound makes your heart flutter.

It also serves as the theme song for the film “I Won’t Fall for Looks Alone,” set to be released in March 2025, perfectly matching the movie’s world.

It’s an exceptionally sweet love song that’s perfect for anyone feeling the excitement of unrequited love or the tender affection for their favorite idol.
