As the month draws to a close, the echoes of love still linger in the air during this season of romance. Whether you’re a hopeless romantic or just love a good song about love, February is the perfect time to indulge in all the feels. From slower ballads to upbeat melodies, immerse yourself in the various emotions love can bring about through these 5 songs.
1. LikeMeLoveMe, by Wynn
With a carefree rhythm, Wynn sings about the story of someone who has fallen into unrequited love but wants to remain confident, even if they can only pretend to be confident. Filled with cute bluffs towards the person they love, it is one that puts a fun twist on unrequited love.
You catch me all-day
I can’t take my eyes off you
On a particularly good day
I don’t know why you want to see me too
2. One Sided Love, by Lacuna
Exploring the same theme of unrequited love, Lacuna goes for a more mellow and introspective approach with this song. It recounts the pain of a one-sided love but still seeks to find solace through acceptance of reality. Instead of wallowing in heartbreak and despair, their calm vocals embrace the emotions, providing comfort to anyone going through a similar situation.
My small feelings probably won’t reach you
I know, that it’s you who made me cry
You probably won’t be there at the end of summer
I know, but I’m still happy
3. XXLove, by Minsu
This track is a refreshing take on love, moving beyond the focus of romantic love. With a light and happy tune, it is easy on the ears and creates a warm and inviting atmosphere to surround all listeners with love. Highlighting the power of love in friendships and family relations, it celebrates the importance of having an abundance of love.
Love makes itself obvious in the smallest of things
Such as meticulous consideration that we don’t even notice
4. Love is a tragedy to me, by GYE0M
For those who seek consolation for heartbreak in equally heartbreaking songs, this song is the perfect fit. It captures the emotional turmoil that comes from being defeated by love and the haunting refrain where GYE0M repeatedly sings ‘ah~ ah~ ah~’ will be able to strike a chord with those who have experienced similar pain.
If your heart wears out and breaks
Can you return my love back to me
If you can’t love my heart like this
Will you just make me completely forget it
5. Love Yourself, by Kim Suyoung
Kim Suyoung’s clear and sincere vocals together with the simple guitar melody come together to present a heartfelt song that reminds listeners to always love and care for themselves. It offers a message of hope for the rest of this month to be lovely even if you are finding comfort in yourself.
We can walk together like this now
More for each other than anyone else
Let’s love ourselves more
Let’s just love each other like that
