Yanawarabaa “Hana”

Hana by Yanawaraba, a female duo from Ishigaki Island.

It’s a cover of Hana: Subete no Hito no Kokoro ni Hana wo, the signature song by Shoukichi Kina, a musician also from Okinawa.

Red Sweet PeaMatsuda Seiko

Seiko Matsuda “Red Sweet Pea” (from Seikoland: Budokan Live ’83)

This masterpiece, which poignantly and beautifully portrays the spring season when cherry blossoms bloom, was released in January 1982 as a single by Seiko Matsuda.

With Takashi Matsumoto’s delicate word choices and an unforgettable melody penned by Yumi Matsutoya under her pseudonym Kureta Keiko, the song superbly captures the changing seasons and the freshness of young love.

The vibrant voice of a 19-year-old delivers subtle psychological nuances and the fleeting scenes of romance with exquisite finesse, resonating deeply with listeners.

In 2009, it was also used as the CM song for Fujifilm’s skincare brand “ASTALIFT,” drawing attention when its memorable melody played in commercials featuring Miyuki Nakajima.

Its sweet-and-sour melody, evoking nostalgic memories and the arrival of spring, is a track you’ll want to hear when cherry blossoms are in the air.

Ikimono-gakari “Flowers Are Cherry Blossoms, You Are Beautiful” Music Video

A song by Ikimono-gakari that seems to portray the shift from winter to spring and the emotions stirred by that changing landscape.

It gives an overall impression of incorporating a Japanese aesthetic, with a strong emphasis on the fleeting nature of cherry blossoms.

The intro, built around piano and acoustic guitar, then gradually layering more instruments, conveys an expanding field of view and a sense of forward-looking emotion.

The lyrics—reminiscent of reading aloud from a literary work—are another highlight, with the words brought to the fore while the beautiful scenery is likewise accentuated.

It leaves you with the hope that, ahead on that path, spring will arrive with beautiful cherry blossoms in bloom.
