I Want It That WayBackstreet Boys

Backstreet Boys – I Want It That Way (Official HD Video)

A band name and song title that any woman in her thirties has heard.

If you’re a woman, you’ve probably had at least one conversation about which member you like.

It’s an old love song, but it still doesn’t feel dated—yet it stirs a sense of nostalgia.

Isn’t it one of those memorable tracks?

EverytimeBritney Spears

Britney Spears – Everytime (Official HD Video)

It’s a breakup song.

When I want to cry my eyes out after a heartbreak and feel refreshed, this is the one.

There was a time when every single word of this song matched my emotions.

Young Britney’s cute vocals make me tear up even more, and I end up listening to it over and over again.

I Need Your LoveCalvin Harris

Calvin Harris – I Need Your Love (Official Video) ft. Ellie Goulding

This is a signature work by Calvin, one of the world’s most popular top DJs, often ranked first or second.

It has a great tempo and an easy-to-get-into groove, and once you hear it, it sticks in your head.

Ellie’s featured vocals match perfectly, and the straightforward lyrics really hit home.

A Thousand YearsChristina Perri

Christina Perri – A Thousand Years [Official Music Video]

This song, which was used in the hugely popular vampire film series Twilight in Japan as well, could be called the ultimate love song.

It’s filled with deep love, because saying you’ll love someone for a lifetime is something that’s not easy to put into words.

You’re BeautifulJames Blunt

James Blunt – You’re Beautiful (Official Music Video) [4K]

It’s a song that was a huge hit in Japan quite a while ago, and I think it’s a very simple and lovely love song.

That’s exactly why I’d especially like women in their 30s—the generation it resonates with—to give it a listen.

James looks youthful and cool in the music video.

All Of MeJohn Legend

John Legend – All of Me (Official Video)

This is the kind of song that makes you think, “I want someone to sing this to me!” without even meaning to.

I can’t get John’s voice out of my head.

In the music video, he looks simply wonderful singing and playing the piano.

The black-and-white filming enhances the song’s world even more, and his chemistry with the beautiful model makes my heart race.

Beneath Your BeautifulLabrinth

Labrinth – Beneath Your Beautiful (Official Video) ft. Emeli Sandé

Labyrinth’s startlingly sexy vocals paired with Emeli’s powerful, featured harmonies feel so good that once you hear them, you can’t forget them.

It’s a song about mature relationships.

I’d love to have someone who likes this kind of song sing it to me.
