Until we meet againHirai Dai
When I listen to lyrics that gently stay by my side when I’m heartbroken and feeling down, they truly make me think, “I’m so glad I found this.” The sound of rippling waves, the timbre of the ukulele, the relaxed melody, and Hirai’s gentle singing voice are sure to bring tears to your eyes.
Do whatever the hell you want.sawada kenji
This is Kenji Sawada’s “Do As You Please,” released in 1977.
Even among younger generations, many people probably know this song.
It’s one of Sawada’s signature tracks.
The rugged “manliness” suggested by the title is richly woven into the lyrics as well.
It’s a refreshingly straightforward breakup song from a male perspective, with no lingering attachment or trace of self-pity.
A Song for XXHamasaki Ayumi
This is the perfect song for when no one seems to understand you and you feel lonely.
It fills you with the determination to overcome adversity! The song itself is short, but it’s packed with emotion and really hits you in the heart.
Go AwayWeezer
Sometimes a breakup makes you feel sad, and other times you just feel fed up—everyone feels that way now and then.
In those moments, why not sing a song called “Go Away” to let your feelings out? Repeat the lyrics over and over and sing to blow off some steam.
Miss youHoshino Gen
The chord progression is stylish, and it’s a very pleasant ballad to listen to.
Endings and farewells with people are sad, but as Mr.
Hoshino says, they can also be the beginning of something.
So it carries a message to look forward positively and do your best.
The lyrics Mr.
Hoshino writes aren’t straightforward, so they make you think deeply in some way.
Time goes byEvery Little Thing
It’s a famous song by Every Little Thing that sold over a million copies.
The lyrics say it’d be nice if, someday, we could laugh about having argued and not being able to be honest.
If only we could turn a heartbreak into nourishment for life like that.

It’s a song that conveys the strength of a woman who, despite lingering feelings for the man she loved and memories of happier times, chooses to cut those ties herself and move forward.
The gentle melody and Anri’s vocals are soothing.
