Why not me?Saki Misaka

Saki Misaka – Isn’t It Fine If It’s Me (Full ver.)
“Boku de ii jan” by Saki Misaka

This song by Saki Misaka portrays the bittersweet feelings of gradually falling in love, even though you thought you were content just staying close as a friend.

With a clear, gentle voice, she expresses the conflict of wishing for the other person’s happiness while not wanting to see them with someone else.

Released digitally in February 2021, the track was also chosen as the theme song for ABEMA’s romantic reality show “Kyo, Suki ni Narimashita.” It’s sure to resonate with those who, despite knowing what would bring happiness, can’t let go, and who sense the other person’s feelings yet can’t bring themselves to speak up.

I don’t want to see you; I want to see you — Yuuka Ueno

A ballad by Yuuka Ueno that sets painfully bittersweet scenes of heartbreak—so vivid they make your chest ache just remembering—against a simple, piano-led melody.

Six months after the breakup, the protagonist’s heart is still tangled in conflicting emotions born from being unable to forget their former lover: aching to see them, yet not wanting to.

Included on the January 2019 album “Sukina Hito wa Anata datta” (“You Were the One I Loved”), this song is sure to resonate deeply with anyone who has gone through a breakup and still hasn’t sorted out their feelings.

When they suddenly come to mind in a quiet moment, why not listen to this track and face your true feelings?

An encouraging song that gently wraps you in a soft, warm voice, depicting love from the perspective of a down-to-earth woman.

Released in July 2017 as her major-label debut single, it was chosen as the ending theme by FM stations across Japan.

As Yumebo Sakaguchi herself says, it “reflects my own experiences,” and the lyrics vividly capture the emotions after a breakup.

It’s a track that gives you the spark to say, “Even after we part, I’m going to keep looking forward and living my life!” Highly recommended for women struggling with love or anyone who wants to cherish their true self.

You have no eye for it.Anzako

Anzako - You Have No Eye for It [Official Music Video]
You really have no eye for things, Anzako.

A song that vividly brings to mind a woman walking with tears in her eyes, clutching a convenience-store-bought drink in one hand.

The pain of heartbreak, self-loathing, and tangled emotions are woven with delicate words.

The wavering feelings caught between “I still love you” and the reality of “it’s over” resonate deeply with listeners.

Included on Ansako’s second album, “No Make, Story,” this track became a long-running seller for over half a year after its release and struck a chord with many.

It’s a warm song that offers comfort to those suffering the sting of a breakup or blaming themselves.

Kasane AiSoala

Soala – Kasaneai [Official Music Video]
Kasaneai Soala

A heart-stirring ballad by Soala that paints the ache of lost love in beautifully poignant words.

Wrapped in a clear, gentle voice, it tenderly holds the regret for a love that might have lasted if only they had met differently, and the feelings that will never again converge.

Released in January 2025 and included on the EP “Bluem,” the song also drew attention for its music video featuring model Suzuka Orita and actor Yusei Ito.

With a melody that sinks into the heart, it portrays memories of happy days and the fragile story of a love that ends in parting.

When you’re struggling in a relationship or want to sing while thinking of someone dear, this song is sure to speak for your feelings.

Never again...BENI

I think this song will really resonate with anyone who’s gone through a breakup after a deep, long relationship.

It captures the emotions of a girl who loves so much it hurts, and the chorus feels like it speaks for many girls—those lyrics can bring you to tears.

Please give it a listen.
