Sakura Clear SkiesYuuri
The first graduation song created by Yuuri is “Sakurabare.” It’s a gentle-sounding ballad, and the lyrics depict a boy on the day of his departure expressing gratitude to his parents.
Because of that theme, it’s perfect for graduation ceremonies, farewell parties, or any time you want to convey thanks to someone.
Another notable feature is the brief pause right before the chorus.
The chorus is the most climactic part, so you naturally tend to push and run out of breath.
But with this song, I think you’ll find it easier to sing smoothly.
