[Unrequited Love Songs] A Cheerful Love Anthem for Those Wishing for Mutual Feelings (61–70)
=LOVE＝LOVE
The person I fell in love with at first sight in a dream suddenly appears right in front of me! This song by the idol group =LOVE, produced by Rino Sashihara, celebrates such a miraculous encounter.
“Our eyes met in passing and I felt it was destiny”—while we tell ourselves that such things surely don’t happen in real life, we can’t help but long for them.
That said, even if a meeting isn’t dramatic, it’s not uncommon to suddenly feel someone is your destined partner in an ordinary moment.
When you get that spark, it might be important in love to follow your feelings honestly and start putting yourself out there to the person.
P.S.Ikuta Rira
Lilas Ikuta, also known as the vocalist of YOASOBI.
The song she created as a tie-in for the film “One Second Ahead, One Second Behind” is “P.S.” It depicts a poignant situation: wanting to confess your feelings to an unrequited love, while knowing it won’t work out.
Even if you haven’t seen the movie, you’ll be drawn into its world.
Another highlight is how the mood shifts dramatically between the first and second halves, turning brighter.
As a result, it offers not only sadness but also a sense of release.
Tetote to Tentoten with whiteeeenGReeeeN
This song is a counterpart to “Tetote with GReeeeN.” This one is told from a male perspective and evokes the refreshing feel of youthful unrequited love.
The boy can’t be honest in front of the girl he likes and keeps brooding over things, but in the end he musters up the courage to confess his feelings.
It’s a great one to listen to before confessing!
The decisive battle is on Friday.DREAMS COME TRUE
It’s a song that seems to express a resolve to convey an overflowing love, characteristic of DREAMS COME TRUE.
It was also used as the opening theme for the music variety show “Ureshi Tanoshi Daisuki.” The unit’s signature rhythmic groove is striking, powerfully conveying rising emotions and exhilaration.
It portrays the mounting nerves as the moment to share one’s resolved feelings approaches, and you can sense the strength of those feelings that can’t be stopped no matter how nervous you are.
It’s a love song that carries tension yet also communicates a sense of fun.
I love you.Inoue Sonoko
“Daisuki,” Sonoko Inoue’s 2015 track that captures the real feelings of being in unrequited love, when your head is completely filled with thoughts of the person you like.
The poppy, bouncy melody conveys the giddy excitement of having a crush.
You’re thinking about that special someone all the time, no matter when or where, and your feelings just overflow and won’t stop! Of course there’s anxiety in unrequited love, but it’s also full of that fluttery, heart-throbbing thrill that’s different from being in a relationship.
Let this song, which sings about the same feelings you have when you’re crushing on someone, help you fall even more in love with the person you like.
It feels like I’m in love.Yuika
The moment their eyes met, her heart was stolen, and just hearing his laughter made her heart race…
Everyone’s had the experience of having their head filled with thoughts of someone they like, right? This song by Yuika is a sweet and bittersweet love song that captures those exact feelings.
Its relaxed, gentle vocals and lyrics depicting a girl completely absorbed in love are especially memorable.
Released in February 2024, it was also featured as an insert song in Koi-suru Shuumatsu Homestay 2024 Winter.
It’s a perfect pick not only for those with a crush, but also for anyone who wants to remember what it feels like to be in love.
MetronomeYonezu Kenshi
Metronome,” a track from Kenshi Yonezu’s 2015 album Bremen, is a song where you can feel genuine affection within the theme of “regret.” Listening to it while you’re experiencing unrequited love might help you think about the path that will leave you with no regrets.
