Vocaloid Love Song Special: Heart-Fluttering, Tear-Jerking, etc.

Let's playKanzaki Hiro

Kanzaki Hiro/HSP feat. Hatsune Miku – Let’s Play

Kanzaki Hiro is renowned as an illustrator and animator.

The Vocaloid song he created using Hatsune Miku is “Asobimashou.” It’s a track that depicts a woman inviting a man out to have some fun.

That may sound cheerful, but the song actually ends up exuding an unsettling atmosphere.

The intense synthesizer melody also imparts a subtly eerie impression.

Try listening while imagining the story behind the lyrics.

Shamuraba!Toripiyo

Sham Lover! / Narukaka Hime // Sham Lover! / Meika Hime

Shall we get hyped with a cute yandere song? This track is by the Vocaloid producer Toripiyo, known for hits like “Calmia Dolls” and “Anemone Glitch,” and it was released in June 2023.

It’s a fast-BPM, upbeat electronic tune with delightfully bleepy synths.

Since it’s four-on-the-floor, the rhythm is easy to catch and your body just starts moving on its own.

The lyrics reveal the protagonist’s true feelings: “I want to be loved by the person I like, even if I have to hide my true self.” It’s adorable, yet there’s a hint of darkness.

If you’re nursing a crush, this might put you even more in the mood for love.

Loquacious silencescrew-type

Verbose Silence / Nejishiki feat. RIME (Uramei)

It’s a heartbreak song whose very lack of words makes the earnest feelings come into focus.

Created by the Vocaloid producer Nejishiki, known for hits like “Freedom Lolita” and “Ice breaker,” it was released in May 2023.

It’s a rhythmically driven band number with crisp, tight-cutting guitar.

Yet, as mentioned above, the world of the lyrics is filled with sorrow.

The tone of the music seems to express those unceasing emotions.

The more you listen closely, the more it will grow on you.

The world you sawSecret Piercing

The World You Saw / KAFU

It’s a heartbreak song suffused with poignancy, sadness, and a sense of resignation.

Created by Naisho no Pierce, who also wrote “Surechigai Kirchhoff” and “Shabon,” it was released in April 2023.

The lyrics depict the moment a lover leaves the room, and simply reading them feels like watching a drama unfold.

That worldview pairs perfectly with the mature, sophisticated sound arrangement.

Listen for Kafu’s vocals as well, which sound as if they’re wringing out raw emotion.

Bonnie & ClydeOnuma Parsley

Onuma Parsley – Bonnie & Clyde feat. Koko

Stylish and catchy, yet it leaves you feeling sad—this is that kind of song.

It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Paseri Onuma, released in May 2023.

With its EDM flavor and pleasing sidechained synths, it really feels good to listen to.

If the title rings a bell, that might be because it’s inspired by the infamous couple Bonnie and Clyde, who committed a string of crimes in 1930s America.

Despite being a love song, the lyrics carry an unsettling tone and a precarious worldview, which is where that mood comes from.

Foxko’s husky vocals further enhance the atmosphere.

Tell me, tell me, tell meSouta

Kaa Yuki 'Tell Me Tell Me Tell Me'

The song has a relaxed, easygoing feel, and the vocals are cute.

It’s a work by the Vocaloid producer Sota, also known for the hit “Ikanai de,” released in May 2023.

The protagonist waits for a call from someone they love, and that sense of eager anticipation really comes through and warms your heart.

It even makes you think, “Hurry up and call them already!” Ending the track with a ringtone is a lovely touch.

With Yuki Kaai’s innocent, charming voice shining through, it’s a love song that makes it easy to get emotionally drawn in.

Suit&TieMerokuru

Suit & Tie / Merokuru feat. KAITO & ALLEN

Don’t miss the romantic love song “Suit & Tie” either.

This duet was produced by Vocaloid producer Merokuru using KAITO and ALLEN.

Using the suit and tie in the title as a motif, it portrays the two gradually growing closer.

KAITO and ALLEN trade lines and deliver beautiful harmonies, creating an arrangement that conveys the depth of their bond.

Also pay attention to the ending, which hints at what might unfold next.
