One of the things that is considered a universal experience among everyone is having feelings for a special someone. Regardless of the reason behind liking that person, most people know what it’s like to feel the urge to smile at the sight of your crush and have your heart skip a beat when they smile back at you.
While having a crush doesn’t necessarily mean you’d want to be in a relationship with them, some people who do can only move forward if they find it in themselves to let their feelings be heard. Here are a few songs that some hopeless romantics can relate to as they gather the courage to express how they really feel.
“Tingin” by Cup of Joe and Janine Teñoso
While the song’s music video shows how it can also be interpreted in various ways, the collaboration between pop rock band Cup of Joe and singer-songwriter Janine Teñoso explores how one’s feelings for another person can leave them to ignore what the world around them may say as they strive to focus on them no matter what.
“Miss, Miss” by Rob Deniel
Known for his retro melodic bops, singer-songwriter Rob Deniel talks about desperately yearning for that special person in “Miss, Miss,” which can also be seen in its official music video where he goes around town in search of the girl of his dreams while encountering couples deeply in-love with each other, hoping that he would experience what they have too.
“MINE” by CHNDTR
For those who found themselves in love with someone they least expected and struggle to share their true feelings, they might find punk pop band CHNDTR’s “MINE” painfully relatable. The song explores the pressing feeling of wanting to be noticed by the one they like and have their love be reciprocated.
“Tila Tala” by syd hartha
Having a crush doesn’t always mean you’ll be in a relationship after confessing your feelings because sometimes there are circumstances that can’t be avoided. Singer-songwriter syd hartha’s acoustic ballad “Tila Tala” encapsulates this further as the song looks into the frustrations of someone who bears strong feelings for another person that they can’t have.
“Ikot” by Over October
While having a crush often leaves one thinking about that special person all day, indie rock band Over October’s “Ikot” captures what it’s like to be in love with someone and have thoughts of them constantly rule your heart and mind while also hoping that one day your feelings for them will be reciprocated.
