Even though you’re supposed to be having fun with friends, the person you like isn’t looking your way… Many people will relate to that bittersweet moment of youth.
Released as a single in December 2015, it’s also included on the album SHISHAMO 3.
It was used as the ending theme for KBS Kyoto TV’s “Kyo-Spo,” and it’s hugely popular on YouTube Shorts, too.
Listening to it on the way to ski or snowboard will get you hyped, and it will also offer comfort to those troubled by a love that may never come true.

Christmas Eve, where winter’s chill meets the warmth of people.
Yuuri’s voice gently wraps this special night in a tender sense of longing.
Scenes woven from memories of lost love and a fragile hope for reunion etch themselves deeply into the listener’s heart.
Released digitally in November 2022, this was Yuuri’s first Christmas song.
It was also included on his second album, “Ni,” and has become a track that soothes many listeners.
It’s a song you’ll want to hear on a night spent thinking of someone dear, or when you wish to quietly face yourself.
You often hear it on TikTok during the Christmas season.
Yuuri’s delicate vocals will surely stay close to your heart.
Wonderful DayTwice
TWICE’s song, which gently paints a winter scene, brings heartwarming comfort during the cold season.
The lyrics, expressing the feeling of entrusting wishes to the snow and dreaming of a wonderful day, are particularly memorable.
The track is included in the Japan-original single “Doughnut,” released in December 2021.
It also drew attention for member Dahyun’s unique arrangement, which offered a fresh interpretation as a Christmas song.
It’s recommended for listening on winter nights while gazing at the illuminations and reflecting on memories with someone special.
silentNEW!SEKAI NO OWARI
A winter classic by SEKAI NO OWARI that evokes snow piling up on a quiet night.
Written specifically as the theme song for the 2020 TBS drama “Kono Koi Atatamemasu ka,” the track features Christmas-like sleigh bells as an accent, and lyrics that capture a silence like sound has vanished and an unspoken, aching longing that truly resonates.
Surprisingly, that vivid wintry atmosphere was created by the members in the middle of summer, chilling the room to an extreme with air conditioning.
Later included on the album “scent of memory,” it can be considered one of their new standard numbers.
It’s also frequently featured on TikTok as a song people want to hear in winter—perfect for pairing with videos of illuminated cityscapes and snowy scenes.
Be sure to use it as heartwarming BGM for your posts.
powder snowNEW!Remioromen
When it pops up on TikTok in winter, you can’t help but hum the chorus, right? This piece by Remioromen stands out with its fleeting yet powerful melody.
Like softly falling snow, the lyrics portray the difficulty of truly connecting and the pain of missed connections, tightening the listener’s chest.
Even so, it carries a heartfelt wish to keep thinking of the other person, leaving you with the feeling of searching for warmth amid the winter cold.
Released as a single in November 2005, it drew attention as an insert song for the drama “1 Litre of Tears.” It’s also included on the album “HORIZON,” and is one of their signature tracks.
The chorus, which feels like an outpouring of emotion, is perfect for belting out at karaoke.
As BGM for videos enjoying winter scenery, it’s sure to create a touch of bittersweet mood.
Snow BlossomNakajima Mika
It’s a classic song that beautifully depicts the winter season.
Mika Nakashima’s clear, translucent voice vividly paints the scene of swirling snow.
It tenderly expresses both the happiness of time spent with a lover and the bittersweet premonition of an eventual farewell.
Released in 2003 and used in a Meiji Seika commercial, this work has remained one of Nakashima’s signature songs, loved by many.
It’s still popular as a winter standard, and you often hear it on TikTok.
I recommend listening to it on a quiet, snowy night.
It’s the perfect track for looking back on memories with someone special or when you’re seeking music that resonates with the heart.
broad daylightNEW!King Gnu
When we watch the snow falling hard, a bittersweet yet beautiful melody comes to mind.
It’s a signature song by King Gnu, released digitally in 2019 and written as the theme for the drama “Innocence: False Accusation Lawyer.” The lyrics depict a heartfelt wish to have an irreparable past and one’s mistakes concealed beneath pure white snow.
No matter how much we regret, time won’t turn back; all we can do is keep walking through the continuous present—a painful truth most of us have felt at least once.
Begun by Daiki Tsuneta at the end of 2018, the track went on to set astonishing streaming records.
It’s also an indispensable winter soundtrack on TikTok.
Listening to it in the cold air might be a good chance to face your own heart.
