Released in 2013 as AKB48’s 30th major single, “So long!” is one of the group’s so‑called “sakura songs,” and its singability makes it popular at karaoke.

With a narrow vocal range and a relaxed pace, it’s enjoyable for anyone to sing, and it’s especially easy for women with an average vocal range.

Its bright, springlike melody and the uniquely bittersweet atmosphere of cherry blossom season are truly moving.

It’s a quintessential AKB48 spring song that gives you strength to look ahead and fills you with hope.
