The gentle, mostly acoustic sound gradually builds in intensity, which seems to express emotions welling up and overflowing.
While it depicts memories that have passed and a past that cannot be returned to, the powerful vocals and forward-looking lyrics convey an impression not of being tormented by memories, but of drawing strength from them.

Spring brings rapid changes to our lives, and it often leaves us feeling a bit sentimental, doesn’t it?

In a spring filled with intense meetings and farewells, it’s a song that helps you reconnect with what truly matters in your life.
Ayumi Hamasaki’s voice, poised with both strength and delicacy, may well empower the tender, wavering heart of a woman.

“Dear Sir/Madam, On This Day of Scattered Cherry Blossoms” is the theme song for Shonen Janmaga, a website that combines Shonen Jump and Shonen Magazine.
Coloring the realization of this dream collaboration, the song is sung by Mafumafu, whose vocals freely span from low to high registers.
Some listeners may feel nostalgia in the lyrics’ worldview, which seems poised to revive the bittersweet memories of youth.
SAKURA DropsUtada Hikaru
Hikaru Utada’s “SAKURA Drops” overlays the image of cherry blossoms blooming and falling with the beginning and end of love.
Released in 2002 as a double A-side single together with “Letters,” the song was used as the theme for the drama First Love.
When you get your heart broken, you think you never want to be hurt again, never want to fall in love—but when someone who stirs your heart appears, you end up falling in love anyway.
The lyrics capture a real, relatable way of living that we can’t help but empathize with.

Songs themed around cherry blossoms are widely sung both as anthems for new beginnings and as songs of farewell.
In the cherry blossom season, with beautiful blossoms in the background and everyone setting off to new places, there’s a certain wistful feeling in the air.
The chorus sung by all the members also accentuates that bittersweetness.
cherry blossomDA PUMP
DA PUMP became a household name nationwide thanks to the massive 2018 hit single “U.S.A.” The song released after “U.S.A.” was this track, “Sakura.” In sharp contrast to its predecessor, it’s a heartfelt number with a gentle, mellow melody that showcases vocalist ISSA’s impressive voice, resonating deeply.
Beyond the melody, the lyrics are richly infused with traditional Japanese elements, evoking a distinctly Japanese spring.
The word “fabulous,” which serves as a key motif in the song, also became a talking point.
SAKURAikimonogakari
Ikimonogakari’s debut single, released in 2006.
It brings back nostalgic memories of their stories on music shows—like how they were asked in every interview, “Is your artist name really Ikimonogakari?” This song ranks among their most frequently charting tracks, alongside “Arigatou” and “YELL/Joyful,” and remains a long-loved favorite.
I wonder how many women relate their own experiences to the lyric, “When the cherry blossom season comes, I think of you.” The music video is excellent too, featuring vocalist Yoshioka’s boyish charm with her very short haircut and cool pants look.
It’s a song that digs up listeners’ memories.
