An unfinished love song I've been working on foreverNEW!Motohiro Hata
A heartwarming ballad that sings of deep love for a long-time partner.
Performed by Motohiro Hata, this piece delicately portrays how feelings for someone precious grow richer and more vivid over time.
Affection so great that no number of rewrites can fully convey it—like a love letter that’s never quite finished.
Each listen wraps you in a gentle warmth, as if your feelings for the other person are renewed again and again.
Written as the theme song for the film “The 35th-Year Love Letter,” releasing in March 2025, it’s perfect for those moments when putting feelings into words feels a bit embarrassing, yet you still want to express your gratitude and love—and need a little nudge to do so.
That's not fair.NEW!Wataru Ochiai
They’re someone who says they “love” me, but I know their heart isn’t here.
Even so, I can’t walk away, because those moments when they say it are the only ones that save me.
Wataru Ochiai’s 2021 release sings from the perspective of a woman sinking into a relationship so ambiguous it can’t even be labeled “more than friends, less than lovers,” moving between blaming the other person and loathing herself.
A phone placed face down as they leave; me almost grabbing their arm, then seeing them off with a smile—tiny details of daily life lay bare the reality that I’m not the one.
The simple arrangement, built around acoustic guitar and keys, is chosen to make the words stand out.
Precisely because the vocal delivery is calm and understated, the pain lands with raw immediacy.
After its 2021 release, the song charted in countries around the world, including Thailand, Laos, and Ireland.
The music video features actors Mizuki and Kento Hotta, and is approaching 900,000 views.
For anyone who knows the feeling of “a love you want to end but can’t,” this is a song that will gently stay by your side.
Because I’ve always loved you.bedhead
This song, dedicated to the high school baseball players battling it out on the summer Koshien stage, is an encouraging anthem by Neguse.
Released as a digital single in June 2024, it was chosen as the theme song for Asahi Broadcasting Corporation/TV Asahi’s “Netto Koshien.” The track is also included on the EP “Ai to Ai no Fight!” and a music video was released in August.
Its melody expands from a rhythmic rap section into choral-style harmonies, layered with a straightforward message about the value of persevering.
It’s a powerful piece that gently supports not only the players devoted to baseball, but anyone who continues to face what they love head-on.
Listen to it when you’re approaching exams, club activities, or a new challenge—you’re sure to find courage.
Love song foreverVaundy
Singer-songwriter Vaundy is known for his wide-ranging musical style.
His track “Zutto Love Song,” released in August 2025, has garnered fervent support from fans.
The song leans toward a rock sound with a hint of Showa-era flavor, featuring distinctly Japanese phrases reminiscent of kayōkyoku.
While the piece isn’t consistently difficult throughout, the B-melody includes a section with pronounced pitch jumps, so you’ll need to be careful not to go off pitch there.
That said, the B-melody itself is very catchy and easy to sing, so if you’re confident in your pitch sense, be sure to give it a try.
sly personTETORA
This song, based on a true story, expresses the poignant inability to let go of feelings for someone you once loved.
It’s a work by TETORA, a three-piece band from Osaka.
The track was included as the B-side of the Tower Records–exclusive single “East Hills” released in April 2019, and later featured on the album “From a Corner of the Classroom” in June of the same year.
Over a simple 8-beat, medium-tempo arrangement, vocalist Sayaka Ueno’s husky, restrained delivery brings a tightening ache to the chest.
It’s sure to resonate deeply with those suffering from unrequited love or still struggling to move on after parting with someone important.
Together forever!Tatsuya Kitani
Singer-songwriter Tatsuya Kitani, who enjoys overwhelming support from young listeners.
While he has many catchy songs, he also has some technically demanding ones.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is Zuutto Issho! This piece requires a wide vocal range from mid1 A# to high A, with quite dramatic pitch movement up and down.
That alone makes it difficult, but it also has few breathing points and many rapid-fire phrases, so in addition to pitch control, strong lung capacity is needed.
It’s a song that demands comprehensive vocal ability, so definitely give it a try.
Zunda ShakingNamiguru
This is a track by Namiguru featuring unforgettable, catchy phrases and delightful shifts in musical genres.
The lively voice of Zundamon and the cute voice of Kasukabe Tsumugi weave a playful back-and-forth that draws you into a lovely world.
It’s like a magical incantation—just listening fills you with happiness.
Perfect for when you want to hype things up with friends or show off a tight, well-synced duet!
