[2026 Edition] A Roundup of Western Love Songs to Listen to in Winter (31–40)
boyfriendAriana Grande, Social House
A stylish track born from the collaboration between Ariana Grande and Social House.
Its sleek production and mature tone make it seriously cool.
The lyrics are especially compelling, expressing feelings for someone who’s more than a friend but not quite a lover—a nuance captured perfectly in the song.
It’s a masterpiece that people in love will relate to, beautifully distilling that complicated emotional state into music.
Blood BankBon Iver
Bon Iver, an indie folk band that represents the United States, has been nominated for the Grammy Awards eight times to date.
Much of their music has a dreamlike quality, with deep messages hidden throughout their works.
Blood Bank is a piece that showcases that very character—told in a story format, it portrays a romance between a man and a woman centered around a blood bank.
At first glance, it seems to depict a beautiful love story, but I felt it also carries the message that sometimes we choose not to say certain things in order not to damage the relationship.
It’s a masterpiece that evokes the poignancy of winter.
Versace On The FloorBruno Mars
Bruno Mars is an artist whose sophisticated music has earned high praise from discerning music fans around the world.
He’s also a hugely popular artist with strong name recognition in Japan.
Early on he pursued a pop direction; in the middle period he shifted to old-style rock ’n’ roll reminiscent of Elvis Presley; and now his style centers on R&B with disco sounds that evoke the 1980s.
Versace On The Floor is a song released in 2016, a captivating work featuring winter-tinged lyrics and an R&B melody.
You’re BeautifulJames Blunt
James Blunt, a singer-songwriter from the UK.
He’s generally well-liked in Japan, but in the UK he’s also an artist with quite a lot of detractors.
He’s somewhat comparable to Kenshi Yonezu in Japan in the sense that he kept releasing one song after another that seemed likely to sell, so his music was apparently always playing in the UK.
It seems people came to dislike him due to the perceived lack of substance and heavy media push, and his song “You’re Beautiful” was even voted the most irritating song of all time.
How ignominious (lol).
Because Of YoKelly Clarkson
It’s a song by Kelly Clarkson that became a hot topic for its shocking video and lyrics.
The title “Because of You” invites us to consider what it means and what lies behind those words—points worth focusing on as you listen.
With emotional vocals carrying the lyrics, the weight of the song deepens even more; it’s a remarkable track.
Many people have surely found salvation in this song.

Scared to Be LonelyMartin Garrix & Dua Lipa
A masterpiece that portrays modern views on love, “Scared to Be Lonely.” The song is a collaboration between globally popular British singer Dua Lipa and world-renowned music producer Martin Garrix.
Crafted with an EDM-like structure, it features a strikingly serious melody.
The lyrics vividly depict a couple who, despite increasing arguments, keep dragging the relationship along because they’re afraid of breaking up and being alone.
All That I WantThe Weepies
The Weepies are an indie pop and folk duo formed in Massachusetts in 2001.
This track was used in J.C.
Penney and Webkinz Christmas commercials, as well as in the TV drama Gossip Girl.
It is included on their 2003 album Happiness.
