The "I Don't Need a Girlfriend" Thing

"I don't need a girlfriend!" - I've been saying that for ten years.

But deep down... I probably want one more than anyone.

"I don't need a girlfriend!" is a humorous and heartfelt J-Pop reggae track about the awkward contradictions of being single, wanting love, and having absolutely no idea how to make the first move.

With quirky guitar riffs, funky bass, punchy drums, handclaps, stomps, and catchy gang chants, the song turns everyday romantic struggles into a playful musical comedy. Spending an hour writing a message, overthinking every emoji, checking your phone three seconds after putting it down, and panicking over the difference between "read" and "unread" - it's all painfully relatable.

"I don't need a girlfriend!"
"...Okay, maybe I really do!"

"I want to be loved!"
"But I'm too embarrassed!"

"I wanna see her!"
"But I can't ask her out!"

The song rides these ridiculous contradictions all the way to an uplifting finale, where the protagonist finally decides to stop hiding behind his bravado and take one small step forward.

Funny, awkward, nostalgic, and surprisingly warm, this is a feel-good love song for anyone who has ever been too nervous to press "Send."

Sometimes you don't need confidence.
You just need to put on your shoes, fix your hair, grab your phone...

...and send the message.
