Unrequited Love Songs Recommended for Teenage Boys: Classic and Popular Japanese Tracks (91–100)
My halfSMAP
A maxi single released in 2011.
It has a mature, R&B-style melody, but it sees the person you love as a “part of yourself,” and I felt it sings about the feelings of love from one’s younger days.
They aren’t in a mutual relationship yet; it’s more like quietly nurturing their feelings in their heart.
Thinking of a lover or someone you like as a part of yourself may be a sensation unique to romantic love.
Ah, geez.Saucy Dog
Saucy Dog is a three-piece rock band that gained attention with the huge hit of their 2021 release, Cinderella Boy.
Their major 10th digital single, “Ah, Mou,” was selected as the theme song for TV Asahi and TELASA’s special drama The Incompetent Duo, as well as a collaboration track with Morinaga’s DARS chocolate.
The lyrics, depicting the emotional ups and downs of unrequited love, are likely to resonate with many teenagers.
It’s a clear, transparent number whose refreshing ensemble—marked by memorable guitar strumming—ironically makes it all the more poignant.
for a long time / all the time / continuouslySaka Tomohisa
A single released in 2012.
Mr.
Sako had been active on Niconico as the masked vocalist “Shounen T.” He was well-known online even before his major debut.
This song is the theme for the anime Kimi to Boku.
2.
With a clear singing voice, it expresses the tender feelings of first love toward someone special in one’s teens.
Whimsy☆Cafe au lait!Takanō Asami
It’s a love song that conveys the feeling that precisely because it’s someone you love, you can act freely and spend your time as you please.
While many love songs focus on doing something for the person you love, this track, conversely, shows a whimsical kind of romance—teasing the one you like and being playfully capricious.
It’s a recommended song for those who want to hear a fresh take on a love song.
Placard of the HeartAKB48
Famous for its “Paiya-ya-ya-ya-ya!” catchphrase! This is AKB48’s 37th major single, released on August 27, 2014.
It reached No.
1 on the weekly Oricon chart and sold over one million copies, making it a huge hit.
A classic that expresses the feelings of a boy too shy to confess.
The melody is catchy, and the music video is super cute.
Highly recommended.
