[Unrequited Love Song] A Love Anthem to Cheer You On as You Wish for Mutual Feelings

Recommended for anyone with an unrequited crush!

We’re introducing popular songs for unrequited love, such as “songs that give you the courage to confess,” “songs to dedicate to someone you like,” and “songs that capture aching feelings.”

Love comes in many forms, and its ending may be a happy one—or sadly, it might not be.

Some loves come true through effort, while others don’t, no matter how hard you try.

Even so, to you who are doing your best to become mutual lovers now, here are songs to cheer on your love.

Listen to them when it’s hard to get your feelings across, and let them give you courage!

[Unrequited Love Songs] A Cheer Song for Love, Dedicated to You Who Wish for Mutual Feelings (21–30)

One million “I love you”sRake

When you’re nursing a one-sided crush, feelings well up so much that words can’t fully express them.

Even when you can’t meet, that person never really leaves your mind.

This song is recommended for anyone who finds themselves thinking, “I wonder what they’re doing now?”

Used as the theme song for the live-action shōjo drama “Boys Over Flowers 2,” this track became a hot topic because any scene set to it seemed to hint at romance.

It’s a heartwarming, happy song that makes you feel there will never be someone you can love this much again, and that you want to protect the happiness of having met them.

This song was used as the theme for the morning information program “Mezamashi TV,” and it’s a love ballad that makes full use of Kana Nishino’s high, clear vocals! It portrays a woman who, from the moment she realizes she likes him, becomes so embarrassed she can’t act the way she usually does.

When you’re in love, your heart races just from making eye contact, doesn’t it?

It was tied in as the theme song for the hugely popular shojo manga ‘Kimi ni Todoke’ movie, and since it was frequently played in commercials, many of you have probably heard it.

With a refreshing, clear vocal and a straightforward expression of pure feelings—simply “I like you”—that reaches the heart, it’s a very fresh, youthful love song.

Highly recommended!

This is a song chosen as the ending theme for the Yomiuri TV/Nippon TV anime series MIX, based on the original work by Mitsuru Adachi.

As with “Natsu ni Natte Utae,” the composition was handled by Ikimono-gakari’s Yoshiki Mizuno.

It’s recommended for those times when love has you stuck—unable to move forward or back.

There’s no use regretting the past, but if you take on the challenge as who you are now, who knows what the future holds?

No matter how we meet, it portrays a steadfast feeling that I’ll surely fall in love with you again.

When you have a one-sided crush, there are times when they don’t notice your feelings, or even when you try to convey them, they brush you off, and it can be painful.

This song is filled with pure, straightforward love and the wish, “I want you to know this love.” Listening to it when you’re hurting might help you face love anew.

Until it’s clearly a breakup, you want to keep holding on to your feelings, don’t you?

It’s a song that portrays a man who can’t stop himself even though he knows he doesn’t stand a chance, wishing somehow to convey his feelings.

The singer is Dai Hirai, known for his acoustic sound and mellow vocals.

In the lyrics, there are scenes of the two slipping away together and spending time alone, but it seems she already has someone special…

Many listeners will relate to the man’s feelings of being unable to give up despite knowing this.

Since he still tries to express his feelings somehow, the song may serve as a love anthem for those in the same situation!
