Aiko’s unforgettable summer love song “KissHug.” No matter how many years go by, this track candidly captures feelings of love that return vividly with each summer.

It was also featured as an insert song in “Boys Over Flowers F (Final).” The lyrics convey how deeply she was in love, and the bittersweet feelings of a woman who ended the relationship but truly wanted to stay by his side.

It’s a perfect summer unrequited-love song that I especially recommend to women who have experienced a love that couldn’t come true.

Female singer-songwriter eill.

Her song “Finale” is a great pick when you want to keep it stylish with a distinctive rhythm.

It was also used as the theme song for the film “The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes,” which helps its recognition.

Since there aren’t any big, sustained belt notes, even those who aren’t confident in their vocal skills can sing it with ease.

There is a short sustained note in the middle, but it’s in head voice, so no need to worry.

Relax and enjoy this song at karaoke!

Its sound captures the sparkle of sunlight, with a cute rhythm that feels like skipping along a sandy beach.

It’s the ultimate summer track that lifts your spirits just by listening.

It’s recommended for anyone looking for a fresh song to use as a driving BGM, or for women searching for a stylish summer tune to sing at karaoke.

Dawn and Fireflies (Yoake to Hotaru) – COVER by Kurokumo ☁︎ (kurokumo)

A perfect song for when you want to sing gently with a relaxed tempo is “Yoake to Hotaru” by n-buna.

Originally released in 2014 as a Vocaloid track, it became well-known after being covered by many popular artists, including the singer Kurokumo.

Its especially emotional tone naturally helps you get into the feeling as you sing.

Also, since the key isn’t very high, it’s recommended for women who find high notes difficult.

Utakata Hanabi [supercell] [Subtitled]

That person I want to see but can no longer meet.

A bittersweet summer song sung for the one I wish I could come to hate but can’t, the one I want to forget but can’t.

What makes this sorrowful song feel even more heartrending is the voice of its vocalist, Nagi.

Alongside the many scenes of summer, what returns is that ache that hasn’t moved since that one summer.

Try listening while recalling your own memories of a bittersweet summer love you may have experienced.
