Divorce Legend – For a While (Official Music Video)

A song by Divorce Densetsu that intertwines the melancholy of lost love with the strength to overcome it.

They say it took about three years from the start of their activities to complete this track.

Even as it feels the pain of letting go of a past relationship, its determination to move forward is sure to resonate deeply with anyone who’s been through a major parting.

For those who only suffer more by forcing themselves to forget, it feels like the song gently says, “It’s okay to be just as you are.” You can regret the past and worry about the future—just don’t give up on living in the present.

Doesn’t the creator’s warm message make your heart feel a little lighter?

On a Valentine’s Day marked by a bittersweet heartbreak, Ketsumeishi’s song “Ballad” is there to gently stay by your side.

Arashi’s 42nd single depicts a love story that’s sweet and slightly bittersweet like a dessert.

Released in February 2014, it also drew attention as the theme song for the drama “Heartbroken Chocolatier,” starring Arashi member Jun Matsumoto, which began airing in January of the same year.

This tender, love-filled track sings of feelings for someone who can only be seen in dreams.

For those who have experienced heartbreak or are struggling to confess their feelings to someone special, its gentle, sweet vocals and lyrics will wrap your heart in comfort.

8utterfly (Butterfly) - 'Wish and Wish...' (Full) [Official]

8utterfly’s “Negatte, Negattemo…” is a heartrending breakup song about realizing you still love someone every time you think you’re ready to give up.

The lyrics candidly portray a woman so fixated on the other person that she sees nothing else, to the point of a kind of self-delusion.

A heartrending, tear-jerking song: 'Koi (Love) / Hanako Oku'

It’s a song about a girl who’s shocked after seeing the person she likes with his girlfriend… it’s very heartrending.

A love that won’t come true, no matter how deeply you feel.

Even if you keep asking yourself, “Why am I not good enough?” you can’t find an answer.

I really want people who had their hearts broken before they could give their Valentine’s chocolates to listen to this.

Until the day I can no longer rememberback number

back number – Until the Day It Becomes Unrememberable (full)

I think the “heartbreak period” is exactly what the song’s title, “Until the Day I Can No Longer Remember,” refers to.

As long as you can’t help remembering, all sorts of things will race through your mind—you’ll laugh at the happy memories, and the painful ones and your regrets will bring the sadness back again.

Repeating that cycle, your wounds gradually heal with the passage of time.

But even if you could forget everything, would that really be a good thing? The hazy emotions after a breakup are expressed just as they are.
